Chapter 97: Secret Recipe



Everyone’s life has been much better recently. Although food is limited, wild vegetables and some early-ripening vegetables can be eaten.

Moreover, when there is no war, the military camp will agree on a few people to go into the mountains to hunt.

In previous years, people would bring the food back to the kitchen to stew it.

This year, there's a sudden trend towards barbecue. It just doesn't taste that good.

This story starts with Wen Xi. One day, Gu Shengjian was clamoring to eat meat and insisted on dragging Wen Xi into the mountains.

I don’t know when it started, but a foodie lost his appetite.

Maybe it was when my mother left!

Compared to Wen Xi, the pseudo-child who always lived in turmoil, Gu Shengjian was much simpler. He seemed to have gotten over the pain of losing his mother.

Finally having something to look forward to, he missed Wen Xi's barbecue skills very much.

So Wen Xi was persuaded to go into the mountains with him and hunt a few rabbits. Then Gu Shengmo diligently prepared the meat, placing it in Wen Xi's hands with a fawning expression, which immediately earned him a punch. There was no other way; he had already developed the habit of never talking when he could use his hands.

Wen Xi took out her secret concoction and grilled it. The smell was so delicious, it was like a piece of bloody meat, attracting countless wolves.

Gu Shengjian barely managed to save two of the few rabbits he had. Two were stolen.

Gu Shengjian was never afraid of anyone in the military camp. Even the battalion commander, he dared to challenge him.

There were only two people that Gu Shengjian wanted to run away from when he saw them. One was Deputy Battalion Commander Qin, and the other was the fat master.

He was most afraid of Deputy Battalion Commander Qin's nagging and the threats of the fat master, because the fat master always threatened him with food. He discovered the secret that besides his love of martial arts, he also loved eating.

The news of the two rabbits being forcibly taken away spread like wildfire, and everyone started roasting them, as they heard that even the deputy battalion commander liked them.

From then on, Wen Xi had an extra trouble, that is, there was a fat follower following him.

"Sergeant Gu! No, Little Grandma Gu! Please teach me a little bit, since we once worked together! I swear, I won't tell anyone else. It's not that I'm greedy, it's just too delicious. Deputy Battalion Commander Qin has given me a death order, I must learn the secret recipe."

"You still want to follow?"

The fat man just woke up from his mumbling and looked up to see that Wen Xi had already entered the toilet and he had already stepped in.

"Hehe, you're too engrossed in what you're saying. Then, how about you go first? Haha, you go first. I'll wait outside."

After a while, seeing Wen Xi coming out, the fat man stuck to her again. Before he could open his mouth, he heard Wen Xi ask:

"What has Deputy Battalion Commander Qin been doing recently?"

The fat man looked resentful, unhappy that Wen Xi had changed the subject, but since he needed help, he shifted his focus to someone else:

"Humph, I don't know who spread rumors and tricked the deputy battalion commander into saying there was going to be a major flood. He's become so skinny lately building boats that he's become unremarkable."

Wen Xi touched the bridge of his nose in frustration, wondering why he was so unpopular.

"Actually, I don't have a secret recipe, just some seasonings. I'll give you some later. I'll also write you a list. Some need to be bought at the pharmacy, some can only be found in the mountains in autumn, and I've saved seeds for some. If you want to plant them, I'll give you some."

The fat man was so happy that he couldn't see his eyes.

"Yes, that's great. I can even be a farmer."

Afraid that Wen Xi wouldn't keep her word, he sent her back to the house and waited outside the door until she got the things before leaving happily.

From then on, the fat chef entered a new realm of culinary art, and his exquisite chili oil became the most popular condiment in the entire military camp.

No matter whether you are a high-ranking official or a lowly soldier, you will be deeply impressed!
