After buying beef in the village, they rode their bicycles to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two cans of malted milk and a can of chrysanthemum crystal for their son. They didn't buy any milk powder because there was still space.
I went to the pork stall and weighed two pounds of ribs, five pounds of lean meat, and a big pig's trotter.
No one likes to deal with pig intestines in hot weather. They bought two sets of pig intestines on the counter for 1.5 yuan each, so they took them all. After buying groceries, they went to a noodle shop for breakfast before returning to the compound.
Hua Jing saw Lu Ting coming back with a basket full of vegetables and said nothing. She knew that her eldest nephew would go out of town the next day and would not be back for at least half a year, so it was time for him to nourish himself and eat more good food.
At noon, Su Yan stewed a chicken with longan, lychee, red dates, wolfberry and other medicinal herbs, and also made boiled beef, sauced pork knuckles, braised spare ribs, hot and sour pork intestines... In total, she made several hard dishes.
After preparing so many delicious dishes, it is natural to invite my parents-in-law to come and have dinner together. After all, this is the first time I invite them to dinner after the separation. Lu Ting is going on a long trip, so they must have something to say to him.
Lu Fengnian and his son Lu Ting were drinking and eating while talking about their trip to Hai City. Hua Jing took her sister Hua Min to talk about the interpersonal relationships in their hometown. Lu Chen and Lu Yu were eating with relish. After the meal, Su Yan sat on the sofa holding her son and fed him egg yolks.
It is good for children to eat some egg yolks. There are plenty of eggs in the space anyway, so Su Yan cooks two eggs for Lu Yiming every day.
After dinner, Lu Fengnian took his wife and two little sons back home, and Hua Jing cleaned up.
Su Yan brought the sleeping Lu Yiming back to the space to sleep. She made beef sauce, mushroom sauce and beef jerky in the space kitchen, while Lu Ting picked mushrooms in the mountains.
Su Yan had just sealed the jars of beef sauce and mushroom sauce and put the marinated beef into the oven when Lu Ting came back with a large basket full of mushrooms.
"Yan Yan, today I brought back a basket of chicken mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms. I didn't pick the others because I didn't recognize them."
"You can take a look at the book on mushroom appreciation on the bookshelf. If you still don't recognize any of the species, you can take the book with you and go dig in the mountains."
Su Yan poured the mushrooms in the basket onto the kitchen floor and found a small stool to sit on.
Lu Ting also squatted on the ground. "Okay, I'll listen to Yanyan. Do you want to wash and roast these chicken mushrooms and matsutake?"
"Aren't you going on a business trip? I can fry some chicken mushrooms for you and bring them to Haishi to eat."
"What is chicken mushroom oil?"
"First, we clean the mud off the roots of the shrubs, then break off the hairs and tear them into small pieces, and then tear the stems apart."
"Then what?"
"Preheat oil in a pan and fry the caps of the chicken mushrooms first, then the stems. Fry until golden brown, add salt, and add dried chilies, Sichuan peppercorns and other seasonings when removing from the pan."
"It's not difficult to make chicken mushroom oil, but it's a little troublesome to handle the mushrooms. There's so much dirt that you have to wash it off several times."
"Yeah, you're right."
Su Yan spent the entire afternoon in the space busy preparing various foods for Lu Ting, including several kilograms of beef jerky, dried mangoes, raisins, dried cherries...a whole bag full of various dried fruits.
She also prepared a few jars of food to go with the meal. Because the journey was long, Su Yan was afraid that the glass jars would easily fall, so she chose plastic bottles to store chicken mushroom oil, beef sauce and mushroom meat sauce.
Looking at the luggage bag full of food, Lu Ting was very touched. Life on business trips was indeed different with his wife. Now at least someone cared about whether he ate well when he was away from home.
After dinner, Lu Ting rode his bicycle and took Su Yan to the village to collect piglets. This time they collected a total of eighteen piglets.
It was already nine o'clock when they returned home after collecting the piglets. Hua Jing and Lu Yiming had already gone to bed.
Lu Ting was reluctant to leave Su Yan as he was about to leave for half a year and he wanted to rub her into his body.
As soon as the two returned to the space, they did it shamelessly without even taking a shower. They moved from the lounge chair in the garden to the living room, and then from the living room to the bedroom. Even after taking a shower, they did not forget to do it again in the bathroom.
Su Yan couldn't help but sigh. Her man had good legs, a good waist and good spirits. It was almost one o'clock and he was still reluctant to go to sleep. Now he was still busy on her.
"Baby, you call me Ting, I like you calling me Ting..."
Su Yan rolled her eyes in disdain. This guy was so mean. She really couldn't keep up with his speed. Every time she was forced to get in the car and wanted to stop, he misunderstood that she was calling his name, and the result was...
Damn it, I’d better speak English next time.
"Yan Yan baby, scream!"
"Meow~ Meow~" Su Yan suddenly meowed like a mischievous kitten.
Lu Ting's eyes were deep, his lips curled up, and his voice was hoarse and low, with a hint of temptation. "Good Yanyan, tell me you love me."
Su Yan's eyes were blurry. She opened her mouth but couldn't utter the word "love". Did she love Lu Ting? Maybe she did! Isn't it normal for men and women to fall in love over time?
She was like a mermaid stranded on the beach by the waves. A big wave came and brought her back to the sea. Just as she took a breath and came back to life, another big wave came and sent her back to the beach.
"Ting, I love you!" Since he wanted an answer, she would give it to him.
He kissed and rubbed her ears, kneading her into his body and into his soul.
"Baby, I love you too!" Lu Ting smiled, his eyes filled with stars.
Because he had to catch the morning train, Lu Ting got up at five o'clock after sleeping for two hours. Su Yan woke up as soon as he moved.
"Lu Ting, let me take you to the train station."
"Yan Yan, there are three of us going to study this time. Someone will drive us there, so you don't have to see us off."
Su Yan rubbed her swollen waist and took out the food she was going to eat on the train.
"I only cooked ten eggs and ten salted duck eggs for you. Remember to eat them in the next two days. They will spoil easily in the hot weather."
"Okay, I know. I'll write to you when I get there. Remember to write back. I'll miss you."
"Well, I'll write you back. You can't bring that much luggage this time. I'll send you sweaters and food when the weather gets a little colder."
"Thank you for taking care of the house, baby, wait for me to come back."
Lu Ting hugged Su Yan and kissed her again. The longer they were together, the more he couldn't live without her. She was his life.
Su Yan sent the suitcase and luggage bag out of the space, and took out a bag of apples and a bag of pears from the space.
"These fruits are for you to eat on the way. Even if the food on the train is not tasty, you must eat on time and don't be reluctant to spend money."
"Okay, I'll be leaving now. They're already waiting downstairs."
"I'll take you down."
Lu Ting wanted to say no, but seeing Su Yan's insistence, he let her do it.
"Okay, let's go!"
This time, Lu Ting was going on a business trip to study for half a year. Su Yan finally felt reluctant to let him leave. She helped Lu Ting carry the luggage bag downstairs, and stood there motionless, watching Lu Ting get in the car and their car gradually drive away.
