Many hands make light work.
The septic tank was dug out in just two hours.
It needs to be fixed with cement to prevent leakage.
Anyway, Ruan Yunxi couldn't understand it, so she just watched them work.
One stove wasn't enough, so they temporarily built another one specifically for cooking dumplings.
We got the pot from Sister Sheng's house.
One of them was making braised pork ribs in an iron pot, and then stuck flatbreads around the edge of the pot. After the pork ribs were cooked, the flatbreads were also ready. They smelled deliciously caramelized, and Ruan Yunxi wanted to taste them.
Sister-in-law Sheng scooped a piece for her; it was a little hot, and Ruan Yunxi didn't dare to take it.
A large hand reached out and took Ruan Yunxi's pancake. She wanted to see who was so tactless as to snatch her pancake, so she met Gu Weizhou's handsome and doting face, his eyes smiling: "I'll hold it for you, I'm not afraid of getting burned."
He blew on the flatbread and then brought it to her mouth.
Ruan Yunxi took a small bite; the pancake was a bit hard.
It smells crispy and tastes pretty good, but the texture is a little rough.
Ruan Yunxi, who grew up eating refined grains, couldn't get used to this kind of coarse-textured flatbread at all. She took three bites, her gums hurt a little, and she didn't eat the rest.
Gu Weizhou knew she wasn't used to the food, so he ate the rest himself instead of wasting it.
Seeing that the young couple treated them like family, even sharing a single pancake, Sister-in-law Sheng smiled.
The other team leaders jokingly whistled.
Ruan Yunxi was a little embarrassed.
Gu Weizhou laughed and said, "What are you bragging about? Go home and feed your wives some flatbread. You can take care of your own wives, you have plenty of them!"
Commander Sheng and his men laughed and said, "Commander Gu, you seem like a stranger to us."
"You weren't like this before. You're completely different now that you've married a wife!"
Gu Weizhou let them tease him, and he said to Ruan Yunxi, "What else do you want to eat? Do you want some spare ribs?"
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
Gu Weizhou served Ruan Yunxi the middle section of pork ribs, which looked delicious.
Ruan Yunxi then invited Commander Sheng and the others to sit down and eat. Everyone gathered around a large iron pot to stew, and the flatbreads were placed in a small winnowing basket, golden brown in color. They liked the look of the flatbreads and praised Sister-in-law Sheng's cooking skills.
It made Sister-in-law Sheng feel embarrassed.
Ruan Yunxi ate the ribs, and to be honest, they tasted pretty good; they were stewed until tender and falling off the bone.
The ribs were stuffed with pickled cabbage, giving them a sour taste, along with eggplant, potatoes, and green beans, plus a handful of sweet potato noodles, which were chewy and delicious. Ruan Yunxi couldn't even pick them up with one chopstick, and it was only thanks to Gu Weizhou's help that they broke off, otherwise they would have been in serious trouble.
Sister-in-law Sheng said, "Break it shorter next time, so it won't be hard to pick up!"
When the dumplings were ready, everyone got a plate of dumplings.
Ruan Yunxi had witnessed firsthand the appetites of men.
They're all like gluttons.
She thought Gu Weizhou was already a master at cooking, but little did she know that Commander Sheng and his men were even more formidable.
She had been worried that she wouldn't be able to finish all the dumplings and flatbreads she had made, but to her surprise, the two remaining flatbreads were eaten by each of them in half.
Little Cherry enjoyed her meal and said, "I'm not going home tonight. I want to sleep at my aunt's house. The food there is delicious!"
Sister-in-law Sheng was both amused and exasperated: "Fine, you can stay here tonight."
Little Cherry clung to Ruan Yunxi, refusing to let go: "Auntie, I want to sleep with you!"
“Okay!” Ruan Yunxi pretended to agree.
Knowing that Xiao Yingtao's decision was impulsive, she looked on longingly after her parents left, but in the end, she abandoned Ruan Yunxi and said, "Auntie, I'll sleep with you next time. I still want to sleep with my mom tonight!"
Ruan Yunxi feigned concern: "Oh, aren't you going to stay with me? I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight. Why don't you stay?"
Little Cherry cleverly pointed at Gu Weizhou: "Let Uncle keep you company tonight. I'll come back when Uncle is away on a mission. Auntie, be good!"
