"Why are you asking about them suddenly?" Huo Jingqian asked puzzledly.
"I just heard Sister Fan and the others mention it, and I was a little curious," Wen Yao said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, I know this. Captain Lu's wife was chosen by her mother in her hometown. But don't mess with Captain Lu's wife. She's very powerful."
At this time, Qi Fang, who was building a wall with stones, interrupted and said something.
Wen Yao nodded and replied, "I'm just a little curious and I don't intend to provoke her."
She thought to herself, this Captain Lu’s wife is her modern best friend’s name, and she was quite curious about what this Jiang Yu looked like.
Wen Yao poked Huo Jingqian's shoulder with her finger and hooked her finger to signal him to come closer to her ear.
Seeing this, Huo Jingqian lowered his head and moved closer, "What's wrong?"
"Ajing, if they help build the toilet, do we have to provide meals?" Wen Yao asked in a low voice.
Huo Jingqian straightened up and smiled, "No need, I'll talk to Qi Fang later, and then we'll go back to the army cafeteria to eat."
"How can that be? It's not good to call others for nothing. Let me cook!"
Huo Jingqian was a little surprised when he heard this, "But Yaoyao, can you cook?"
"Of course!" Wen Yao said righteously.
Huo Jingqian was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect that his sweet wife could cook?
He stared at Wen Yao's eyes with some doubt.
Wen Yao was a little overwhelmed by his stare, "You...why are you looking at me? Don't you believe it?"
Seeing that Wen Yao was getting anxious, Huo Jingqian said quickly, "I believe it, I believe it. I'm sorry to bother you, Madam."
Having gained Huo Jingqian's trust, Wen Yao smiled happily, "Don't worry! I will make sure everyone has a good meal."
After saying this, Wen Yao turned and left.
She went into the kitchen and took out the fruits and vegetables she had bought yesterday from the basket hanging in the air.
In fact, she was not sure about it either. She was not good at cooking.
In her previous life, before her parents died, she was also a princess who had never touched the water of the sun.
But later, due to family changes, she was forced to change from a spoiled princess to a self-reliant social animal.
Although I am not very good at cooking, I can cook most meals.
While Wen Yao was packing up the ingredients, she encouraged herself, "Come on, Wen Yao, you can do it!"
After Wen Yao prepared the ingredients, he started to cook.
But the earthen stove was extremely uncooperative and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't light it.
Wen Yao blew into the stove, trying to light it, but her mouth became sore from blowing, and there was still only thick smoke coming out of the stove, but no stars were visible.
Huo Jingqian and a group of people were busy working when they heard some movement coming from the courtyard gate.
"Captain Huo, something bad has happened. Your kitchen is on fire."
Wang Fang, who lived next door, pushed open the gate of Huo Jingqian's house and shouted towards the back of the house.
Her shout attracted many people to come out and watch.
Upon hearing this, Huo Jingqian, Qi Fang and others immediately dropped their hoes and ran to the front yard.
"Yaoyao, Yaoyao, where are you?" Huo Jingqian shouted while running.
Wen Yao heard Huo Jingqian's voice in the kitchen and ran out of the smoke-filled kitchen, covering her mouth and nose.
"I'm here. What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Huo Jingqian saw Wen Yao running out of the kitchen, and he quickly stepped forward and hugged her in his arms, "You scared me to death, why didn't you run away when the kitchen was blocked?"
Huo Jingqian was too worried about Wen Yao's safety, so his voice trembled unconsciously because of fear.
Wen Yao was stunned when she heard this, "The kitchen is not open?"
Huo Jingqian was also stunned when he heard this. He looked at the smoke coming out of the kitchen and asked, "Why is there so much smoke in this kitchen?"
Wen Yao's face turned red when he heard this, and he said in an awkward voice, "I can't light that stove."
Huo Jingqian heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Wen Yao's words, then smiled helplessly and rubbed her hair.
"I'm glad you're alright!"
When Qi Fang and the others saw that the kitchen was not open, they were only alarmed for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around to continue working.
They were trying not to laugh in their hearts, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud in front of Huo Jingqian, so they went back to the back of the house in silence.
Through two walls, Wen Yao could still hear their laughter.
It's so embarrassing. It's so shameful.
She always likes to be the one to pick on others, and now she is the one who is being laughed at by others.
"Qifang, are they laughing?" Wen Yao said aggrievedly.
"No, they are not laughing at you," Huo Jingqian comforted.
After Wang Fang realized that it was a bummer, she ran away in a flash.
In less than half a day, three new topics of conversation had emerged in the family compound.
The first was that Captain Huo's wife came to join the army, and the third was that Huo Tuanzi's wife almost set the kitchen on fire while cooking.
After the smoke in the kitchen had dissipated for a while, Huo Jingqian walked into the kitchen.
"Let me do it." He gave birth skillfully and finished it quickly.
Wen Yao looked at him a little embarrassedly, "I thought I could... "
Huo Jingqian gently stroked her hair and said, "It's okay. I will teach you slowly in the future."
Wen Yao nodded, feeling warm in her heart.
Huo Jingqian was in charge of cooking, while Wen Yao was in charge of frying.
As the saying goes: Husband and wife work together and work is not tiring!
At this time, Wen Yao felt that this made sense.
Two hours later, five dishes and one soup were ready.
Maybe because there were so many people and the demand was large, in just half a day, the toilet was half built.
Wen Yao went to the back of the house and invited them to have dinner.
When everyone saw the sumptuous meal on the table, they all praised Wen Yao's cooking skills.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you can cook. This braised pork looks delicious."
Qi Fang said with a smile, and couldn't wait to pick up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Qi Fang: "..."
Du Song watched Qi Fang eat without saying a word, and asked hurriedly, "How does it taste? Is it good?"
Qi put the meat in his mouth, his face almost turned the color of a cucumber. He raised his head and glanced at Huo Jingqian standing beside him.
"Can I say this? Oh my god, this is braised pork, why is it salty and sweet?" Qi Fang secretly groaned inwardly.
Huo Jingqian glared at Qi Fang, as if to say, if you dare to say it doesn't taste good, I will slap you in the face.
"What's wrong? Put it all together. Does it taste bad?"
Wen Yao saw Qi Fang's miserable face and asked in confusion.
"Ah? No...no, it's delicious, delicious!" Qi Fang forced a smile with a stiff face and swallowed the whole piece of meat in his mouth with great difficulty.
Afterwards, he picked up a piece of stir-fried vegetables with chopsticks, thinking that if he couldn't control the taste of the pickled mustard greens, the vegetarian dish should be fine.
The moment the vegetables entered my mouth, it was as if I had stepped into a salt jar, with the salty taste in my mouth stimulating my taste buds.
When Du Song and his companions heard Qi Fang say that the food was delicious, they also picked up their chopsticks to pick up some food.
The result is that they all ate without saying a word.
They all cast murderous looks at Qi Fang.
"Qi Fang, this bastard, actually pretends to be so calm." Du Song cursed Qi Fang in his heart.
