Chapter 49 What a magical day
Three days passed in a flash!
"Look, the snow has stopped!"
"This snow has been falling for too long, it's time to stop..."
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I wonder if the men who are out on missions can make it back to celebrate the New Year..."
On the day before New Year's Eve, Su Mingyuan arrived with a lot of bags.
Not only did she bring the sewing machine that Dong Yulan had asked her to bring, she also brought a lot of good stuff, two pieces of defective cloth, two large bags of scraps, and peach cakes, melon seeds, hard candies, and canned food bought from the supply and marketing cooperative...
The large and small bags of things directly used up his monthly salary.
The person who was most happy about Su Mingyuan's arrival was the foodie Gu Jinan!
He jumped up and down and screamed with excitement!
His uncle understood him very well and knew that he was craving for sweets.
"How did you get so many things?" Dong Yulan looked at the large and small packages piled at the gate of the yard in surprise.
The largest piece of equipment is the Butterfly sewing machine.
Diagonally opposite Gu Jianguo's house, Wang Dafeng and her eldest grandson Hu Zi were standing on tiptoe and looking over here.
That pile of good stuff is really enviable!
"I definitely couldn't have gotten it by myself, so I waited for the army's procurement vehicle early in the morning, gave each of them a pack of cigarettes, and they gave me a ride along the way!"
"But the snow was too thick, and it was difficult for the car to get in, so we parked outside the yard. They helped me deliver the things over!" Su Mingyuan said.
"When asking someone for help, you should make some arrangements. Otherwise, if we just take advantage without giving anything in return, no one will want to deal with you next time!" Dong Yulan nodded and suddenly felt that her son had grown up and became much more mature than before.
"Granny, I want to eat canned food. I saw a canned food and I want to eat it!"
Zhang Huzi stared at this side, and when he saw Gu Jinan pick up the can from the basket, his saliva started to flow with greed.
Canned food, she wants to eat it too!
Wang Dafeng took two steps forward and suddenly saw Su Qingshan walking out of the yard. She was so frightened that she quickly stepped back.
"Eat canned food, I want to eat canned food!" Hu Zi saw his grandmother standing there motionless and began to urge her.
"Eat your ass! If you have the ability, you can be born into a good family in the next life and have whatever you want to eat!" Wang Dafeng cursed.
Su Mingyuan glanced at the person opposite him: "She can talk, but why is she glaring at us?"
"Don't worry about her, she has a problem with her brain!" Su Qingshan said as he helped carry the sewing machine into the house.
After the sewing machine was brought in, it was temporarily placed in the main room.
When Su Mingmei saw that one of the two defective items brought by Su Mingyuan was pink, she was immediately overjoyed!
"This color is really nice, it's perfect for making clothes for our little girl!" Dong Yulan touched the cloth and couldn't let it go, "It would also be nice to make a pink quilt!"
Looking at the piece of cloth, Dong Yulan had already imagined all kinds of small clothes and quilts suitable for her daughter.
"Mom is a good cook, so leave it to her!" Su Mingmei said with a smile.
Even if she didn't say it, considering how much her mother dotes on Qibao, she would definitely take the initiative to take on this job!
Su Mingmei sorted out the things her brother Su Mingyuan brought one by one. After everything was ready, she took out potatoes and cabbage from the room and went into the kitchen with Dong Yulan to cook.
“Oh my god!”
As she entered the kitchen, Dong Yulan screamed.
"What's wrong?" Su Mingmei followed in.
I saw two pheasants laying eggs lying next to the stove, and a gray rabbit weighing five or six pounds squatting next to them.
"It must be our Qibao again!" Dong Yulan muttered in a low voice.
Last time it was pheasant.
This time it’s even more ruthless, two pheasants and a rabbit!
"My dear, you must be worried that we don't have meat to eat!" Dong Yulan felt so touched in her heart!
She must have heard her husband say that there can’t be no meat during the New Year, so her lovely daughter sent meat to the house!
"Love is mutual. We love Qibao, and Qibao knows it!" Su Mingmei sighed.
Qibao's love for them is genuine.
The only thing she was worried about was whether these things that appeared out of thin air would have any effect on Qibao!
Su Mingyuan teased Qibao for a while, and then played with Jinchen and Jinze for a while.
When he stepped into the kitchen, he was stunned when he saw pheasants and rabbits squatting beside the stove!
"Sister, what kind of heavenly life is this in your family? Why is there always meat every time I come?"
Not only does the pheasant look fat, the rabbit looks even fatter, with a lot of meat!
Su Mingmei and Dong Yulan looked at each other, and tacitly agreed not to explain the origin of the game.
"I'll boil the water first, and the task of dealing with the pheasants and rabbits will be left to you!" Dong Yulan changed the subject and instructed her son.
"Okay, I'll make sure it's handled cleanly!" Su Mingyuan agreed readily.
As long as I can eat meat, what does it matter if I do some work!
Besides, sister’s cooking skills are very good, so he will have a great time today!
Dong Yulan planned to stew one of the pheasants today and save the remaining rabbit and pheasant for the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow.
After a while, the water in the two large pots in front and behind was boiled.
Su Mingyuan worked efficiently. The necks of the two pheasants were quickly cut and the blood was collected in a bowl, waiting to be made into chicken offal.
After scalding the chicken feathers, you have to pluck them quickly, otherwise if you take too long the chicken will become overcooked and the feathers will be difficult to pluck.
Su Mingmei helped pluck the chicken, and left the rest to Su Mingyuan!
Gu Jinchen and Gu Jinan realized it later. When they saw the pheasants and rabbits on the snow, the two boys' eyes lit up with excitement!
Awww, there's meat to eat again, that's great!
Su Mingyuan gutted both the pheasant and the rabbit and took out their internal organs...
Su Qingshan came out of the main hall holding Qibao in his arms. Seeing the chicken and rabbit offal in the big bowl, his eyes lit up: "This is good stuff. Ask your mother to fry it for lunch today and have it with our wine!"
Su Qingshan likes this.
Add sour beans to chicken and rabbit offal, chopped dried chilies, and minced garlic, and stir-fry them. The taste is simply amazing!
"It's a pity that my brother-in-law can't drink, otherwise it would be nice for the three of us to have a drink together!" Su Mingyuan sighed.
Gu Jianguo, who was lying on the bed, said: "You are really hitting me in the heart!"
Knowing that he couldn't drink, she still yelled in the yard...
"Brother-in-law, don't mind. When your injury is healed, I will get you a bottle of good wine!" Su Mingyuan shouted into the house.
The corners of Gu Jianguo's mouth twitched.
Paint the cake for him!
However, his body is not far from full recovery.
Gu Jianguo glanced around vigilantly, and he sat up easily from the bed.
It’s actually quite difficult to continue pretending to be injured.
Every minute and every second spent in bed was torture.
The bone-replenishing ointment was very effective. His injuries improved almost every day, and now he only felt a slight discomfort...
It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone!
In order not to stand out, he decided to stay in bed for three months.
Although, there might be flaws in front of Mr. Bai!
But as long as he doesn't admit it and as long as he stays in bed, Mr. Bai can't do anything to him!
So many soldiers are injured now!
His rapid recovery from injury was bound to attract attention from all parties.
Gu Jianguo just wants to keep a low profile.
Don't want to get involved in any trouble or risk.
With Dong Yulan helping her, Su Mingmei cooked very quickly.
Braised potatoes, stir-fried cabbage, and stir-fried chicken offal with sour beans!
As soon as the three dishes were placed on the table, Su Mingyuan couldn't wait to help serve the rice.
There was chicken soup simmering on the stove, but it would have to wait until the evening.
Military hospital.
Mr. Bai has been very busy these days.
While he needed to treat the wounded, he also had to find time to develop ointments based on ancient medical prescriptions.
When he finally finished the last wave, he remembered that tomorrow was New Year's Eve.
The young apprentice has been with him in the hospital for several days. Even if he doesn’t care much about New Year’s Eve, his family must still be thinking about him.
