Chapter 28: Give and Take, Only Long-Term Development Can Be Achieved
"Wife." Cheng Jinghao walked into the kitchen, hugged Lin Momo from behind, and buried his head in her neck.
"I'm back." Lin Momo chuckled and prepared to serve the bacon.
"Let me do it." Cheng Jinghao brought out the bacon before her. How can I let my wife do this kind of work?
"Let's stir-fry some vegetables." Lin Momo chopped a few garlic cloves, heated up some lard in the pan, added the garlic to sauté until fragrant, and then put in the Tibetan vegetables.
"Wife, the food you cooked smells so good. Lao Zhao was almost drooling outside the courtyard gate just now."
After serving the dishes, Cheng Jinghao stuck to Lin Momo like a koala.
"Give half of the steamed bacon with Laba beans to Brother Zhao and the others."
"You made this for me, why do you want to share it?" Cheng Jinghao was unwilling. Can everyone eat the dishes cooked by his wife?
"Why are you so stingy? If you like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow." Lin Momo patted the hand on her waist.
"Go quickly."
"Oh." Cheng Jinghao reluctantly took a bowl and took out some Laba beans and steamed bacon.
"Send it over quickly, and then come back for dinner." Lin Momo laughed when she saw his expression.
Cheng Jinghao knocked on the door of the next door with the dishes, and it was Zhao Zhigang who opened the door.
"Here." He pushed the bowl towards Zhao Zhigang, "My wife asked me to bring it to you, greedy cat."
"Hey, look, this is so embarrassing."
Zhao Zhigang was about to take it, but Cheng Jinghao took the bowl and said, "Then don't eat it. I just can't bear to part with it."
"Hey, don't do that." Zhao Zhigang was anxious. How could he let the meat fly away when it was right in his mouth?
"Look at how useless you are." Cheng Jinghao handed the bowl over and went back to eat.
Zhao Zhigang walked into the main room happily holding the bowl.
"You are so nice. You actually brought back a bowl of meat." Li He rolled his eyes at him.
"It smells so good. How are these beans made? Why are they so fragrant?" Zhao Zhigang put Laba beans in a multi-grain steamed bun.
"Mom, it's delicious. Can you make this for us?" Shitou, the 7-year-old son, said to Li He while eating bacon.
"Mom, I like to eat it." The 5-year-old daughter echoed.
"How come all of you have inherited your father's greedy habit?" Li He was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Mom will ask Aunt Lin tomorrow how these beans are made."
“Yeah!”
Next door, Lin Momo was applying vanishing cream after washing up.
"Wife, come and soak your feet." Cheng Jinghao walked into the room carrying a basin of water.
Lin Momo sat on the edge of the kang, and Cheng Jinghao squatted down and gently massaged her feet in the water.
"Why are you so nice to me?" Lin Momo looked at him.
"Because you are Lin Momo." Cheng Jinghao looked up at her, his eyes full of affection.
The two looked at each other, feeling extremely warm.
The next day, Li He came over in the morning.
"Momo, I'm sorry to bother you all morning." Li He put yesterday's bowl on the table in the main room.
"Sister Li He, don't be so polite."
"As for me, I never come here without a request." If those three guys weren't greedy, she would have been too embarrassed to come over.
"It's the bean you used to make the bacon with yesterday. How did you make it?"
"Sister, you are talking about Laba beans, right?" Lin Momo asked with a smile.
"So that's called Laba beans."
"Sister, wait a moment." Lin Momo said as she went to the kitchen, took out a jar of Laba beans from the supermarket, tore open the packaging, and took it to the main room.
"Sister, this is not easy to make here. You can take it home and eat it first. My family sent it to me last time."
Li He waved her hands repeatedly, "No, this is sent by your family, how can I accept it?"
“Take it. I have more. When I go to the city next time and buy all the ingredients, I will teach you how to make it.” As for the ginger needed for the Laba beans, there is too little of it in southern Tibet.
"Well, thank you very much, Momo."
"It's not something valuable, so don't be polite." Lin Momo smiled.
Li He took the Laba beans back home. Not long after, he picked a lot of vegetables from home and brought some red dates to Lin Momo.
"This vegetable is from my backyard, and the red dates were sent from my hometown."
Lin Momo took it with a smile. She liked to associate with people like this. Only when there is give and take, can the relationship last long.
After seeing Li He off, she started making underwear for Cheng Jinghao in the house.
Yesterday, Cheng Jinghao complained to her that the underwear distributed by the army was not made of pure cotton and was uncomfortable to wear.
She asked him to get his own clothes from the supermarket, but he refused, saying that Zhao Zhigang's clothes were all made by his wife, and he wanted to wear his wife's brand.
It is already September, and it will start snowing in southern Tibet next month.
She had to hurry up and make some thick clothes for Cheng Jinghao, otherwise he would have no thick casual clothes to wear when he went on missions.
I originally planned to take down some down jackets from the mall to make clothes, but now the mall is locked except for the 1st and 2nd floors.
The supermarket only has clothes of the current season. How about taking apart the duck down quilts and duvets in the supermarket?
Lin Momo took out a duvet from the supermarket and started to take it apart.
But her experience in making clothes all comes from her original memories.
The down that was taken apart is not the cotton in my original memory.
When Cheng Jinghao came back, he opened the door and was stunned by the scene in the room. The room was full of down.
"Wife..." He finally found Lin Momo among a pile of down.
"Do you know what it means that imagination is full and reality is skinny? Aqiu~" Lin Momo had a sad face.
Cheng Jinghao held back his laughter, found a rechargeable vacuum cleaner from the supermarket, and collected all the down.
"Wife, people who make down jackets have special machines for filling down." Cheng Jinghao raised his hand and cleaned the down on Lin Momo's head.
Lin Momo looked at him and blinked. "Is that so?"
"Ahem, and have you taken out all the down from the quilt?" Cheng Jinghao picked up the outer lining of the quilt and took a look.
"Yeah." Lin Momo nodded.
"Haha, wife, you are so cute." Cheng Jinghao smiled and kissed her on the face.
"Are you sure you don't mean to call me stupid?"
"So silly and cute." Cheng Jinghao pinched her cheek.
"......" Lin Momo felt that she was unable to refute.
"Wife, this is how you should pack down."
Cheng Jinghao took out another down quilt from the supermarket, cut a small piece, matched it with the clothes made by Lin Momo, and filled it in little by little.
"This way, the down feathers won't fly around."
Lin Momo covered her face, "You make me look so stupid."
"My wife is not stupid. She is so cute." Cheng Jinghao hugged Lin Momo in his arms.
"I'm hungry." After all this trouble, Lin Momo no longer had the heart to cook.
"I'll go cook, you take a rest." He kissed her on the face again.
"Your pants are ready." Lin Momo handed him the two pairs of red shorts on the kang.
"Why is it red?" Cheng Jinghao held up two pairs of red shorts, looking surprised.
"It suits you very well."
"Haha, why don't we get something to eat at the supermarket?" As he said that, Cheng Jinghao laid Lin Momo down on the kang.
