Everyone couldn't stop smiling: "I gained a lot today!"
"Me too!"
All the military wives felt that they were extremely lucky and took their buckets together.
Qiao Yueyue said proudly: "I have been picking up things today. In addition to picking up a lot of conchs, I even picked up a large sea urchin! What I picked up is enough for the whole family to eat for a day!"
Liu Hua moved his bucket forward and said, "I also picked up a starfish! Not only starfish, but also many lobsters!"
Song Xiangqiao and others gathered around, showing envious expressions.
"Sister-in-law, you have so many lobsters. You actually picked up more than a dozen?"
"Yes! He's quite big."
"This starfish is so cute! Sister-in-law, you are so lucky!"
Liu Hua laughed out loud. She had picked lobsters several times before but had never found a starfish, let alone these lobsters. It just so happened that the children at home wanted to eat them, so she could make a pot when she got home.
Just at this time, Gu Qingcheng also moved over, and the military wives asked again.
"Qingcheng, how much did you pick up today?"
"We all had good luck today. If you don't get much, we can share some with you!"
"Look at what you said? Qingcheng picked up a big crab at the beginning, how could the harvest be small?"
Gu Qingcheng chuckled: "Thank you, sisters-in-law. You are so polite. I have a good harvest today. I am quite satisfied with it."
Everyone turned their eyes over, and they were shocked when they saw it!
Zhao Zhaodi was shocked: "Qingcheng, you actually picked up so many things?"
Chen Shunmei swallowed her saliva and said, "Such a big squid? And there are so many of them! And so many oysters? I can cook a big plate of them!"
Song Xiangqiao: "And that starfish! It's so big and beautiful. I thought the starfish that Liu Hua's wife picked up were all very good, but I didn't expect that your starfish is nothing compared to hers, like a big witch meets a small witch, or a father meets his son."
Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but laugh: "Sisters-in-law, it's not as exaggerated as you say!"
The atmosphere of the chat was very good, and Gu Qingcheng soon got involved. She smiled softly and said, "Thank you sisters-in-law for teaching me the skills of catching seafood today! I was able to pick up so many things thanks to you sisters-in-law. If you sisters-in-law have nothing to do today, come to my house for dinner tonight! I will cook for you myself!"
It was Gu Qingcheng's first day there, and she got along well with the military wives. Their husbands and Lu Shiyan saw each other all the time in the army, so it was always a good idea to have a good relationship with them.
Qiao Yueyue's smile became more intense: "Then it's settled! I'm just too lazy to cook!"
"Me too! I finally have time to be lazy today."
The military wives walked back from the beach, chatting and laughing. Gu Qingcheng glanced at the time and said anxiously, "Sisters-in-law, let's make it a deal. I've wasted a lot of time outside today. I have to go back quickly. Shi Yan and the children are probably waiting for me at home!"
"Okay! Go back now."
…
It was already half past eleven when Gu Qingcheng got home. She took the steamed rice from the coal stove to the kitchen, then took out some eggs from the space, and added sausage, cucumber, carrots, and green vegetables. She cut them into small pieces, put them all into the white rice, and stir-fried them.
She was skilled and nimble, and soon the fragrant fried rice was freshly cooked.
In addition, Gu Qingcheng also took ketchup and salad dressing from the space and mixed them into the fried rice. Just the smell was enough to make people salivate. She put a full bowl of fried rice on the dining table. At this time, the door of the house was opened.
Lu Shiyan came back with two children.
Lu Mengmeng's nose twitched, and her small body rushed to Gu Qingcheng's side like a cannonball, hugging her thighs softly: "Pretty auntie, Mengmeng missed you so much!"
Gu Qingcheng smiled and exposed her in a gentle voice without mercy: "Are you simply missing your aunt, or are you missing the food she cooked?"
The little guy was stunned for a moment, put his hands on his waist, and laughed: "All, all, I miss my aunt, and I also miss the food she cooked."
Gu Qingcheng gently pinched Lu Mengmeng's face.
Lu Shiyan shook his head and laughed: "Mengmeng, go wash your hands quickly, it's time to eat."
“Okay, okay!”
As soon as she heard about eating, Lu Mengmeng acted faster than anyone else and rushed over in no time.
Lu Shiyan said again: "Xi Nian, you go too."
The two children went to wash their hands. Lu Shiyan sent them away and walked to Gu Qingcheng with his long legs.
Looking at the woman's cheeks still covered with sweat, the man's heart softened. He gently stroked and wiped the sweat from her forehead with his bony fingers.
He said in a low, hoarse voice, "Chengcheng, thank you for your hard work."
"What's wrong with that?" Gu Qingcheng shook his hand back, "You are training in the army to defend our country, and it's really hard to sweat like crazy."
"Clear orange..."
Lu Shiyan's throat seemed to be blocked for a moment, and he felt more and more moved in his heart. How could he be so worthy to marry such an outstanding wife!
It is the blessing that the Lu family has accumulated over several lifetimes.
The two looked at each other lovingly. At this time, Lu Xinian and Lu Mengmeng had already washed their hands.
A hint of joy flashed in Lu Xinian's eyes.
Lu Mengmeng giggled non-stop: "Dad, the look between you and pretty aunt is so special, as sweet as strawberry cake!"
The little guy used his brain and came up with this metaphor.
Gu Qingcheng and Lu Shiyan were both at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Gu Qingcheng said softly: "Okay, go wash your hands and eat, don't let the two children laugh at you."
Lu Shiyan could only reluctantly look away, then walked towards the kitchen.
The family gathered together to eat. Gu Qingcheng did not serve rice to the children, but chose to let them serve themselves. Some things need to be cultivated in them from an early age. They should serve as much as they can eat, and no leftovers are allowed.
Gu Qingcheng is quite good at educating children.
In this regard, Lu Shiyan expressed that he would completely and unconditionally obey Gu Qingcheng's command and do everything according to his will.
As expected, the big pot of fried rice made by Gu Qingcheng was gone in less than twenty minutes. Several people ate and praised it. Lu Mengmeng was even more afraid that if she was distracted for a second, the fried rice in the bowl would be snatched away.
Gu Qingcheng reminded with a smile: "Mengmeng, eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."
As a result, Xiao Mengmeng's eating speed did not slow down at all, but became faster!
Like a little wolf cub guarding its food, she stared at the people who were trying to steal her food, but her voice was particularly soft and sticky: "Pretty auntie, that won't work. Daddy and brother might eat it all. If Mengmeng is slow, she won't be able to snatch it from them!"
