Ning Xiyue looked at the bowl of duck meat in her hand and teased herself: "Look at me eating and taking it at the same time. I took away half of the pot of duck meat that you worked so hard to stew. I was not polite and took it shamelessly."
Chen Yechu scooped up the remaining meat from the pot with a bowl, and looked at Ning Xiyue teasingly: "Don't be polite, I will be embarrassed to look for you in the future if you are polite. I like your impoliteness, so I can be impolite too, haha."
"Okay, you're welcome. We've lived in the same house for so long, so don't be polite."
As Ning Xiyue was speaking, she saw her second brother walking towards the kitchen. Her eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to tell her second brother the good news that the captain had told her, so she hurriedly said something to Chen Yetu.
"Ye Chu, I'll go over first. I saw my brother came back."
"Okay, go ahead." Chen Yetu waved his hand and continued to wash the pot to prepare duck egg soup.
Ning Xiyue walked back quickly with the meat in the bowl, opened the kitchen, put the meat away, and waited for her second brother to come back.
Just as I poured two cups of tea and sat down, Ning Qingyuan parked his bicycle and came into the house with a joyful smile on his face.
After sitting down, he took a sip of water and took out a handful of papers from his bag and handed them to Ning Xiyue: "Little sister, look, I have already issued two certificates. Look at the bright red seals on them, they look so beautiful."
"Brother, I have good news for you too." Ning Xiyue took out the certificate from her bag: "Dang, dang, dang, I've also got it here. Now everything is complete."
"Thank you, sister." Ning Qingyuan couldn't help but pick up the certificate in Ning Xiyue's hand and looked at it. After reading it, he immediately put the three certificates away, stood up and walked out: "I'll give them to Aunt Chen right away, and you'll be able to move in soon."
"Wait." Ning Xiyue grabbed her second brother. She hadn't told him the important news yet. "Don't worry, second brother. I have another good news to tell you. It's not too late to go after hearing this."
Although Ning Qingyuan was very anxious, he still sat back on the bench properly and looked at his sister curiously: "If you have any good news, tell me quickly. I can't wait."
Ning Xiyue didn't keep anyone in suspense any longer and told the good news in detail: "The captain told me today to tell you that you can pack up and move in in the next day or two. Once you're settled in, just go to the team leader to register and you'll be done. It's only a matter of time anyway."
Ning Qingyuan was stunned by the news. It was too sudden. He asked in disbelief, "Really?"
"It's absolutely true, brother. Once you hand in the information, go back and pack your things. You can move in tonight."
Ning Xiyue slapped her forehead when she said this: "Look at me, delicious food can lead to misleading people. I have something else to do. Second brother, go and do your work. I'll wait for you to eat. I need to go to the front yard for a while."
After Ning Xiyue finished speaking, she hurried forward and found Zhao Jianshe massaging the duck meat in the big kitchen.
"Xiyue, when did you come back?"
"I've been back for a while. Let's talk later." Ning Xiyue nodded to Wang Mengmeng and looked at Zhao Jianshe who was busy at the side: "Comrade Jianshe, the captain wants to see you. He is in the brigade office."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Zhao Jianshe took off his apron and handed it to Wang Jiandong beside him: "Brother, you press it next, press it a few more times, and then cut it into small pieces. I'll leave it to you here."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm here. I'll massage the meat throughout the process and make sure the sauce is massaged into the meat. I'm also good with a knife, so I can cut the meat into small pieces."
Wang Jiandong took over Zhao Jianshe's position, moved the basin containing the ducks closer to himself, and massaged them in the same way Zhao Jianshe had just done.
Seeing that he was doing a good job, Zhao Jianshe washed his hands and went to find the captain. Ning Xiyue continued to stand here for a while, watching them busy themselves with the duck.
All the educated youth in the hospital were busy here cooking the duck, even Xia Zhipeng was here. He knew that everyone was upset by the fact that he fell into the cesspool, so he sat in front of the stove and lit the fire.
Wang Mengmeng and Wu Guifang sat on the side peeling garlic.
Cousins Liu Yao and Yu Zhiyu were also there processing their half of the duck.
Seeing how busy they were, Ning Xiyue turned around and prepared to go back to cook dinner, waiting for her second brother to come back after finishing his work to eat together.
Seeing the bowl of duck meat that Chen Yechu gave her on the table, Ning Xiyue thought about the meat she already had and her eyes fell on the two jars placed next to the cupboard.
"I'll eat you tonight."
Ning Xiyue washed her hands, took out a spoon, a pair of chopsticks, and two plates and squatted in front of the jar.
From the jar on the right, they took out pieces of sour fish coated with fried rice noodles and filled a large plate.
He then pried out a large piece of meat wrapped in white lard from the jar on the left.
Take out a bag of dried mushrooms and soak them.
Tonight we will have fried sour fish, steamed sour fish and stir-fried pork with dried mushrooms. All the ingredients are natural products.
The rice is steamed and the dishes are ready.
Ning Xiyue cleared out Chen Yechu's bowl, filled it with half a bowl of stir-fried jar meat with dried mushrooms, and then filled it with two crispy fried sour fish and one steamed sour fish and sent them to Chen Yechu next door.
It’s more enjoyable to eat when there’s give and take.
The meal was ready but the second brother had not returned yet. Ning Xiyue added hot water to the pot, warmed the vegetables in the pot, and went to the front to find Comrade Zhao Jianshe to find out about the situation the captain mentioned.
