After completing the preliminary preparations, she began to knead the dough.
In order to be able to eat fresh lo mein and mixed noodles while riding the train, He Wanqing made four pounds of noodles.
After placing the kneaded dough in a bowl, covering it with a lid and letting it rise, she took the diced eggplant and minced meat, walked to the pot, and started stir-frying on the smallest heat.
Heat the pan and pour in the lard. After it melts, pour in the chopped meat and stir-fry. After the meat turns white, add soy sauce to adjust the color. Finally, pour in the chopped eggplant and stir-fry.
Only after the eggplant changed color did she lift the lid of the bone soup pot, scoop half of the soup into it, cover it with the lid and simmer it. Then she turned around and went into the house to start rolling noodles.
Half an hour later, all four pounds of dough were cut into noodles. After she kept enough for herself, she sent the remaining cut noodles and the panel into the space kitchen.
She took the remaining noodles into the kitchen and placed them on the stove. She opened the lid and took out the bones and ribs from the pot.
After pouring out all the remaining soup and sending it into the space, she transferred the pig's trotter soup in the other pot to the pot on the edge, added a bowl of water into it, then covered the lid, squatted down, and lit the fire to boil the pot.
After a few minutes, the water boiled and she put the noodles in, stirring with chopsticks. When the noodles were almost done, she poured in the washed vegetables.
Suddenly wanting to eat chili peppers, she closed the lid of the pot and went to the backyard to pick a handful of green and red peppers.
I went to the water tank, washed it, took it into the kitchen, chopped it up and put half of it into the minced eggplant and meat.
She chopped the remaining half into pieces, put it in a bowl, added salt and soy sauce, and prepared to put it into the noodles later.
After lifting the lid of the pig's trotter noodle soup pot and seeing that the noodles were ready, she scooped the pig's trotters, noodles and vegetables into a basin, preparing to clean the pot before eating.
Then he took a clean basin and put the eggplant and minced meat topping into it before starting to scrub the pot.
When she sat down in the yard to eat the noodles, the workers were just getting off work.
"Sister-in-law, are you having dinner so early?" Holding two grass carps skewered with weeds in his hands, Gu Chengshi looked at the pig's trotter noodle soup in her bowl and always felt that the food was not nutritious enough.
He lowered his head to glance at the fish in his hand, and without waiting for her to reply, he continued, "Sister-in-law, you can eat this fish. I heard that eating fish is good for your health.
After dinner, Jiang Sui and I will go get some more and try to make sure you can have fish soup every day."
"Wanqing, why are you eating so early tonight? Xiaoya, Shuling and I just told you that we'd treat you to a fish feast later."
Zhou Lianyi, who was a few steps behind, walked in from the door with the skewered grass carp in both hands.
Following closely behind were Gu Ya and a few others, each holding at least two fish in their hands.
He Wanqing raised her eyebrows and looked at the fish in the hands of several people, as well as the mud on their bodies. While eating noodles, she asked:
"It looks like you guys have a big catch today. Where did you catch so many fish?"
"There are fish in rice fields, corn fields, and bean fields, but the most are in the ditches beside the rice fields. Every family has fish tonight."
Wu Shuling answered first. After she finished speaking, she put the six fish that were still alive and kicking in her hands into the bucket beside the water tank and scooped a lot of water into it:
"Sister-in-law, since you have already eaten dinner, let's save this fish for you to eat tomorrow. We will catch it for you tomorrow night."
"Yes, I'll give you two here too. Eat them first. I'll try to catch them all tomorrow night and let you eat as much as you want then."
Zhou Lianyi and Wu Shuling's words prompted Gu Chengshi and others who came in earlier to take one or two fish from their hands and give them to her.
After swallowing the last mouthful of noodles, she took the pig's trotter in one hand and ate it, while waving to the others: "No, I'm going to South City with my mom tomorrow morning, so you can take the fish home and eat it!"
She's leaving tomorrow morning. If she wants so much fish, it'll probably be smelly by the time she comes back.
Her words stunned Gu Chengan and others, especially Wu Shuling and Gu Ya.
Whenever they heard the word "Nanshi", they missed it so much that they would still miss home even though their brother was around.
After they looked at each other, they looked at He Wanqing who was chewing pig's trotters: "Sister-in-law, why did you think of going to Nanshi???"
"Sister-in-law, my aunt is at my uncle's place of residence and is not in Nanshi anymore. My grandfather has also been taken away by my uncle. Where are you going~"
Gu Chengshi wanted to say where he lived, but when the words came to his lips he remembered that his home and his second uncle's home were there.
Gu Chengshi's words startled He Wanqing. She put down the pig's trotter in her mouth and looked at him: "Chengshi, what did you say? Aren't your aunt and her family in Nanshi?"
She could understand why her father-in-law was not there. After all, he belonged to the Southern Province Military Region and it was impossible for him to always be in the central region. But didn’t her mother-in-law work at the Nan City Military Hospital?
Why aren’t you here yet? ? ? ?
"Sister-in-law, because of Grandpa and the others' affairs, Uncle asked Aunt to apply for a military transfer order to go to his side. Grandpa Gu should have been taken there by Aunt."
"Oh, I see. But this has little to do with my trip to Nanshi. My dad is injured and is in the Nanshi Military General Hospital. I need to go see him.
Do you three have anything you want to take? If so, write it down and I'll bring it to you when I come back."
He Wanqing didn't feel much when she knew her mother-in-law was not in Nanshi. It didn't prevent her from going to Nanshi anyway.
As for the original idea, it seems that I can only stay in the military guesthouse when I arrive in Nanshi.
"Sister-in-law, then you can go to the Military Headquarters to find Second Uncle and the others. Second Uncle and the others are all at the Military Headquarters. If you have any questions about Uncle, you can ask them.
As for the things we need to bring, we don't have any. We don't lack anything now. There is a lot of cloth in Nanshi. You can buy more for yourself and the baby in your belly."
"Yes, sister-in-law, the fabrics there are better looking than here. You can buy some and make clothes for your nephews."
Although a few people wanted to go back with them, they also knew that they had just arrived this year and would not have time to go home to visit their families, so they did not mention it.
Gu Ya and the others introduced the situation of Nanshi to her one after another. Zhou Lianyi beside her would occasionally interject a few words, so that He Wanqing, who had not yet been to Nanshi, already knew many places in Nanshi well.
After seeing off the seven people and their fish, He Wanqing walked to the water tank, washed the dishes and chopsticks, threw away the pig's trotter bones that she had eaten, then closed the door and returned to her room.
She originally wanted to go up the mountain, but it was too early now, so she could only wait until midnight.
Lying on the kang, thinking about the trajectory of her past life, she suddenly sat up.
She seemed to have overlooked one thing, that is, her father and her brother had left the army before they sacrificed in their previous life, so they would not die in this life, right?
Probably, after all, she changed her unit and definitely couldn’t access the missions from her previous life, so she succeeded in changing her fate, right? ? ?
And her father. From her brother's words in the evening, she could clearly feel that her father's injury was not as simple as he said.
But now her brother said that he just needed to be taken care of, and he was promoted and transferred to a relatively better military region, which means that her father must have taken the medicine she sent.
