Ye Zhaozhao always wore cloth shoes, and Gu Yunduan thought she was reluctant to buy leather shoes. It was a beautiful misunderstanding. Gu Yunduan picked up the list she had made.
"You don't need to cook so many dishes, just make a few to fill your stomach."
"No, this is our first time treating everyone."
Ye Zhaozhao thought that Gu Yunduan was a battalion commander, and if he was stingy when treating people, people would definitely say something, so Gu Yunduan went along with her.
Then I focused my attention on her handwriting.
"Zhaozhao, your handwriting is so beautiful."
Ye Zhaozhao had trained before she transmigrated, so she was naturally beautiful. Gu Yunduan was more and more satisfied with her and felt that he had found a treasure.
When it was time for bed, Gu Yunduan hadn't left yet. Instead, he made up Ye Zhaozhao's bed and, meeting Ye Zhaozhao's questioning gaze, Gu Yunduan began to explain.
"We're married, so we'll sleep together."
"oh oh."
Ye Zhaozhao was still wondering if something might happen tonight.
Nothing happened. Gu Yunduan lay down and fell asleep. She really just slept, and then she fell asleep.
Gu Yunduan knew he was hosting a dinner party tomorrow, so he naturally didn't want to put her through that and decided to just bear with it a little longer.
The next day, Gu Yunduan cooked porridge and egg pancakes. After Ye Zhaozhao finished eating, she went with Sun Xiuhua to take a bus to buy things. There were quite a few military wives going out of the island to buy things today.
Knowing that Ye Zhaozhao was treating everyone today, and especially knowing that she had gone to the county town to buy meat, they became even more enthusiastic towards her. Although they couldn't go, being able to eat meat was good enough.
After getting off the bus, Ye Zhaozhao followed Sun Xiuhua to the supply and marketing cooperative. The cooperative had already sold out of meat, leaving only two sets of pig offal and large bones with little meat on them.
Everyone abandoned their plans to buy meat and hurried to buy other things. Ye Zhaozhao didn't mind and immediately bought offal and pork bones after learning that they didn't require coupons.
When everyone saw what she had bought, they thought, "Oh no, will our husbands even have a decent meal tonight?" Fortunately, Sun Xiuhua suggested going to the farmers' market to see if they could buy any meat there.
Ye Zhaozhao was quite lucky; when it was her turn, there were still two jin of pork belly left. Without thinking, she bought it, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief—two jin of meat!
Ye Zhaozhao also bought 20 jin of pork fat to render lard. After buying almost everything and it getting late, everyone got into the shopping car and headed home.
Ye Zhaozhao bought a lot of things, so Sun Xiuhua helped carry them home and told her.
"Zhaozhao, don't worry, I'll come and do it with you this afternoon."
"Sister-in-law Sun, then I'll have to trouble you."
"What's the trouble?"
Sun Xiuhua walked away, waving her hand. Ye Zhaozhao went inside to drink water. Gu Yunduan had gone to training and wouldn't be back until evening. She first washed the pork fat clean.
Cut into pieces, put them in a pot and start simmering. After the oil is rendered, turn the heat to low and simmer the cracklings until they turn golden brown. Then find a jar.
Pour in the oil, and it's ready to eat once it solidifies.
The lard smelled very good at this time. After she finished rendering the lard, Sun Xiuhua brought her two children over. Seeing that Ye Zhaozhao had already started, she quickly washed her hands and asked.
"Zhaozhao, what dishes are you planning to cook?"
Ye Zhaozhao quickly took out the menu she had written. Seeing so many dishes, Sun Xiuhua thought that these stinky men were in for a treat tonight.
She had tasted Ye Zhaozhao's rolled pancakes, and her skills were the best in the residential compound.
Tie Zhu and Sha Zhu stared at the fried pork cracklings, their mouths watering. Ye Zhaozhao then handed the fried pork cracklings to the two of them.
"Tiezhu, Shazhu, go eat at the table."
"Oh dear, it's such a waste to feed them this. We can chop up these pork cracklings and make a batch of dumplings."
“How can it be considered a waste if it’s already in our stomachs, Sister-in-law Sun? Let’s begin.”
"good."
Since it was unclear whether the person coming was from the south or the north, Ye Zhaozhao made both steamed buns and rice.
Then there's a big pot of braised pork offal, a small pot of seafood, a large portion of braised pork, and a pot of pork bone soup.
Ye Zhaozhao was worried there wouldn't be enough to eat, so she ordered large portions of all the dishes. Looking at the two pots full of meat, Sun Xiuhua exclaimed, "Wow, I've never seen so much meat before!"
Ye Zhaozhao let her try it. After tasting it, Sun Xiuhua's eyes widened. It was delicious, so delicious that she wanted to swallow her tongue.
The pig offal didn't smell bad, and the seafood didn't taste fishy. It was delicious. Sun Xiuhua thought she must learn from Ye Zhaozhao later. The two of them finished cooking.
Gu Yunduan also returned with his group of twenty people. They entered the room noisily, carrying tables and chairs, otherwise there wouldn't have been enough room for so many people.
Sun Xiuhua and Ye Zhaozhao took the pot out, and everyone was stunned. It was the first time they had ever seen a pot used to hold food, and they thought that this big pot was all they had for the night.
Unexpectedly, there were two more large pots of food. While the comrades were surprised, they still sat down to eat.
Sun Xiuhua told Ye Zhaozhao that she would come over later to help pack, and then she was about to leave. Ye Zhaozhao wanted her to stay for dinner, but Sun Xiuhua said that none of the other family members had come.
It wouldn't look good if she stayed to eat alone, so when she left, Ye Zhaozhao served her two bowls of pork offal and seafood, as well as four steamed buns.
"Sister-in-law Sun, take this back and eat it with the children."
"Okay, I'll head back now."
After Sun Xiuhua left, Gu Yunduan came to call her. Ye Zhaozhao went out with Gu Yunduan to greet her. Everyone was surprised to see how beautiful Ye Zhaozhao was.
Qian Jiefang understood why Gu Yunduan looked down on Zhao Hong when he saw Ye Zhaozhao. With her looks and skills, she was far superior to Zhao Hong, not even Tianxian Hong.
As the leader of Gu Yunduan's group, he wanted to see him happy. He was drinking with Gu Yunduan, and the alcohol was bought by Gu Yunduan from the supply and marketing cooperative.
Shen Yihan was a little unhappy to see that Qian Jiefang was only focused on drinking with Gu Yunduan and ignoring him, the deputy battalion commander. He had always wanted to get closer to Gu Yunduan.
