Chapter 216 Good News Next Month



Feng Fangfang turned her head as if to say something, but was pulled away by Xia Zhoujian who was standing next to her.

Jiang Wenwan didn't see that Feng Fangfang had thrown away Xia Zhoujian's hat and gloves as he walked away.

Xia Zhoujian angrily yelled at her.

"what you do?"

Feng Fangfang's self-righteous words infuriated Xia Zhoujian, who took a deep breath but did not pick up the things Feng Fangfang had thrown away.

"These were all made for you by that woman. You're married to me now, and you're still thinking about that woman?"

You are not allowed to accept any of these. From now on, you will be my man, and I will naturally buy them for you.

Why should my man wear gifts from other women?

Xia Zhoujian was speechless. He glanced at the hat and gloves she had thrown on the roadside, and then she pulled him away.

Not far from where they had gone, a young man in military uniform passed by and casually picked up a hat and gloves from the ground.

"These hat and gloves are nice. Who's so wasteful as to just throw them on the ground like that?"

A soldier next to him came over and said:

"Commander, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Look, these gloves are made of wolf skin, but they must be made of rabbit skin."

Soldier: My own commander is actually picking things up on the roadside. Isn't he too thrifty?

After hearing what had happened, Jiang Wenwan noticed Zhu Xiaohui looking at her with a mournful gaze.

This is completely baffling!

It's not like I stole her fiancé.

"Hello Comrade Jiang, it turns out that Comrade Zhou is your spouse."

I thought you weren't married because I saw you knew Xia Zhoujian!

Jiang Wenwan touched her face and looked at Zhou Yunting.

"Do I look like an unmarried young girl, with such good maintenance?"

Zhou Yunting looked at her and smiled.

"In my eyes, you are prettier than those unmarried young girls."

Let's go, aren't we still going to buy some seasonings at the store?

Oh, right, I also know where to buy cumin. Let's buy the spices first, then go to the agricultural machinery station. That's where I bought my cumin last time.

Hearing him say that, Jiang Wenwan's eyes lit up.

"Let's hurry up, we're almost out of cumin at home."

The two of them headed straight for the supply and marketing cooperative.

Zhou Yunting looked at the package in his hand and asked curiously:

"Who sent this package?"

Jiang Wenwan shook her head and gave him a wink.

Zhou Yunting wisely kept quiet and didn't ask any more questions.

As the two walked into the supply and marketing cooperative, Zhu Xiaohui turned her gaze away from Zhou Yunting.

She stomped her feet, realizing that Zhou Yunting was actually married, thinking he hadn't gotten married yet.

Looking at Xia Zhoujian, who had been transferred here through connections, Zhu Xiaohui was so angry she almost cried.

Why is she so unlucky?

Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting entered the supply and marketing cooperative. Jiang Wenwan whispered in his ear:

"This was mailed to me by Zhu Xiaomin's mother. The woman outside is named Zhu Xiaohui."

They must be some kind of relative of Zhu Xiaomin.

Also, look at the telegram she sent me, about her fiancé.

It's that Xiazhoujian.

I don't know how to tell her about this now.

Zhou Ye thought about it for a moment and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Or you could tell her that her fiancé was stolen away by her cousin, and then someone else stole him away too?"

There's a saying that goes something like that.

Those who attempt to rob others will inevitably be robbed in return.

"puff,"

This makes a lot of sense and is hard to refute, but she definitely can't say that to Zhu Xiaomin.

What if the girl gets too upset and falls ill? Who will take care of her there?

In short, this whole thing is pretty frustrating.

"Forget it, I won't say anything for now. Or, I can try asking her mother about the relationship between Zhu Xiaomin and Zhu Xiaohui first."

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, they went to the agricultural machinery station.

There was indeed cumin there.

The salesperson who sold cumin to Zhou Yunting last time heard that Zhou Yunting wanted to buy more cumin.

"Comrade, have you finished planting all the cumin seeds from last time?"

Zhou Yunting laughed

"We didn't finish planting them all, but we ate them all."

The salesperson's brows immediately furrowed.

"That stuff is still edible, but it doesn't taste very good."

Zhou Yunting explained to the woman at the agricultural machinery station how to sprinkle it on grilled meat and other dishes.

Then they bought all the cumin from the agricultural machinery station.

When they got back in the afternoon, Jiang Wenwan started making braised duck necks and various braised and salt-baked dishes with Zhou Yunting.

Zhou Yunting watched curiously from the side.

Why break down the duck into such detailed parts?

This includes duck breast, duck carcass, duck skin, duck legs, duck feet, and duck tail. Want more?

Jiang Wenwan thought for a moment and shook her head.

"No, let's cook this duck first before the oven is ready."

"Once the oven is ready, we can just go get a few more and roast them; it'll be the same."

Upon hearing him mention the oven, Zhou Yunting was about to begin preparations, including making clay bricks.

They built her an oven out of adobe bricks, but this oven couldn't be moved.

Well, even if she could move around, it wouldn't be of any use; we can't push her around on the street to sell things now.

Sister Qi glanced out from the gate of the courtyard.

"What are you making at your house that smells so good?"

Jiang Wenwan peeked out from the kitchen to take a look.

"Sister-in-law Qi!"

I bought two ducks and plan to braise them; what you're smelling is the aroma of braised duck.

By the way, do you have any braised dishes at home? Bring them over and I'll braise them for you too.

I made a big pot of braising spices, and it would be such a waste to just throw it away after braising.

Sister-in-law Qi's eyes lit up when she heard this, but then she realized that they didn't really have anything to braise at home.

The light in their eyes disappeared.

"My family doesn't have much to braise, what can you braise?"

"Both meat and eggs can be braised."

Anyway, she doesn't plan to use this pot of braising liquid after she finishes it.

She had just put twenty eggs into the pot, and after the eggs were cooked, she was still thinking about how to deal with the braising liquid.

The main reason is that she finds it smelly and doesn't want to use it anymore.

"You can even make eggs? How about you braise five eggs for me?"

Jiang Wenwan slapped her forehead.

"Sister-in-law, how about this, you just bring me that big bowl, and I'll scoop out some braising spices for you. You can take it home and braise whatever you want."

That way, she'll be able to divide up the braising liquid quickly, and she won't have to deal with it anymore.

Honestly, why didn't I think of this before?

Sister-in-law Qi was even happier to hear that.

"Okay! Wait here, I'll go home and get it right away."

Watching Sister-in-law Qi leave, Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting exchanged a glance.

A moment later, Sister Qi came over with two tea mugs.

A glance into Jiang Wenwan's kitchen reveals two duck necks and duck parts placed on a bamboo mat.

"With just two ducks, you've made quite a lot of braising liquid."

Jiang Wenwan ladled some braising sauce for her and smiled.

"This isn't the first time I've misjudged the amount."

If Sister Song hadn't been pregnant, I would have sent some to her family as well.

When you go back, please call out to Sister Su and Aunt Jiang, and tell them to come and get some to take home too.

"Okay, let me tell you, Sister Su's sister-in-law has taken a liking to the new military doctor."

I reckon we can get married in about two months.
