The basket of vegetables Qin Xiao carried was given by Fang Jingzhou. When he came back, he was with Commander Liang. When Fang Jingzhou heard that Ji Xia was pregnant, he quickly prepared some dried vegetables and asked Qin Xiao to bring them back for Ji Xia to change her taste.
There are pickled mustard greens and dried beans in the vegetable basket, as well as some dried wood ear mushrooms and hazel mushrooms. In fact, all of these are available in Jixia's space, but the taste may not be as good as what Fang Jingzhou gave, because these are all pollution-free ingredients of this era.
In the summer, soak black fungus and pickled mustard greens in hot water.
She planned to stew rice, using the rice produced in the space. After washing the rice, she added water and stewed it in a pot at the back. The big pot in the front was to be used for cooking.
Steamed pork belly with pickled mustard greens is the most delicious, and black fungus can be used to stir-fry lean meat. After planning this, Ji Xia took out a large piece of pork belly, cut it into large slices, about 10 to 20 slices, and marinated it with salt and soy sauce.
Qin Xiao had already grabbed the knife and chopping board, and under Ji Xia's instructions, he cut some slices of pork with plum strips and marinated them first.
"Mom will come tomorrow. The telegram came today. The guard gave it to me when I came back just now." Ji Xia just remembered and told her that her mother-in-law was coming.
In fact, it is not a good thing for Shen Congying to come here. It will be inconvenient for her to take out anything she wants to eat in the future.
"Dad called just now and said Wanxue is coming along too." Qin Xiao said.
"Who?" Ji Xia thought he had misheard.
"Wanxue, my sister!" Qin Xiao looked at Ji Xia's face. If Ji Xia showed any reluctance, he would let Wanxue return directly.
Ji Xia was undoubtedly very happy. She said happily, "Wan Xue is coming too. I'll pick her up tomorrow!"
She really couldn't wait to see Wanxue. If Tian Yuan was just her junior high school classmate, and they now had no common language at all, but she still hadn't given up the friendship she had with Tian Yuan, then Wanxue meant even more to her.
Part of the reason she agreed to marry Qin Xiao was because he was Wanxue's brother.
It can be said that in this era, Ji Xia is actually a lonely person.
The system deceived her, saying that if she worked hard and stocked up, it would give her a big gift package to bring her parents back to life. She did have parents, but they were only the parents of this era, not the parents before the restart.
She had no way to cause trouble for the system, but that didn't mean she wouldn't be disappointed.
I wonder what late snow looks like?
I don’t know if Wanxue was implicated after helping her before the restart?
After dinner, Qin Xiao washed the pots and dishes, then boiled a large pot of water for Ji Xia to take a bath. Ji Xia dropped a few drops of essential oil into the large wooden barrel, and the hot steam made the water fragrant.
At night, Qin Xiao was holding his fragrant wife, his mind wandering. Ji Xia could sense his forbearance, so she turned over, lay in his arms, and whispered, "Do you want me to help you?"
Her hand touched something strange, and Qin Xiao groaned.
After a long time, Ji Xia felt that his hands were no longer his own. He felt a little regretful. It had taken too long. He said unhappily, "Can't you hurry up?"
Qin Xiao couldn't help laughing and lay on the pillow.
Ji Xia wanted to wipe the liquid on her hands on Qin Xiao's face. Qin Xiao was so scared that he jumped off the kang and poured hot water for Ji Xia to wash his hands naked, and also washed himself.
The couple lay down. Ji Xia was a little tired, so she put her sore body on his chest, and Qin Xiao rubbed it for her carefully.
"What is Wanxue doing now?" Ji Xia leaned closer to his arms. Qin Xiao pulled her in and hugged her like a child. "She joined the army after graduating from high school. Later, the military district established a special operations team, and she joined that team. She was the only female soldier in it."
She walked the same path as in her previous life. In her previous life, Ji Xia also trained with a group of male soldiers. She always crushed her comrades and was always an excellent example among special forces.
Ji Xia couldn't help but look forward to Qin Wanxue even more. Will they hit it off right away?
Or will there be tit-for-tat?
In the past, when they were together, they didn’t talk much, but they had a special understanding.
At night, Ji Xia had a dream. She dreamed of the moment before the restart. When she was at the naval base, Wanxue called her. She answered the call and heard Wanxue crying, "Xia Xia, save me, save me!"
She saw the Americans hanging Wanxue on a helicopter, which was hovering in the air, and Wanxue was blown to pieces in the high-altitude rapids.
At that moment, Ji Xia's eyes were red as she shouted, "Wanxue! Don't be afraid, wait for me!"
She took out a fighter jet and flew over. Just as she was about to rescue Wanxue, a missile flew towards her. She heard the system countdown sound.
[Ding——Host died, mission failed! ]
Wanxue died with her in the missile attack, but at that moment, her heart was very calm.
"Wanxue, I'm sorry!"
…
Qin Xiao woke up when Ji Xia was sweating all over. It was dark and there was no daylight, but Qin Xiao had a strong night vision. He saw Ji Xia's frown and her murmurs.
He clearly heard Ji Xia calling "Wanxue" and "Wanxue, don't be afraid, wait for me", obviously having a nightmare.
Ji Xia and Wan Xue should have never had any intersection, so how could there be someone she had never met in her dream?
But Qin Xiao didn't have time to think about it. He patted Ji Xia gently and said, "Wife, don't be afraid. I'm here, I'm here!"
Ji Xia woke up and saw Qin Xiao. She felt a little regretful that this was just a dream, but she was still frightened. She hugged Qin Xiao's neck and buried her face in his arms, "I had a nightmare!"
Qin Xiao hugged her, took a dry towel from the kang, and wiped the sweat off her head and neck. "Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay!"
The two talked for a while, and Ji Xia fell into a deep sleep again, but Qin Xiao could no longer fall asleep. He held his beloved in his arms, feeling a little regretful that the person in her dream was not him.
I am also a little worried that when my younger sister comes, will my wife like her and not him?
He said that Wanxue shouldn't have come with him. It was so hard to get a month's vacation, so why did he come here instead of staying in Beijing to spend time with his elders?
The next morning, when Ji Xia woke up, Qin Xiao had gone out for drill again. There was corn grits porridge and white flour buns heating up in the pot. I don't know where he got the pickles from, but they were quite sour and went very well with rice.
Ji Xia ate her fill before washing the dishes. Qin Xiao came back and went with her to pick up her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
The car they were driving was Ji Xia's. When the car was in front of the supply and marketing cooperative, Qin Xiao saw that there was still time, so he stopped the car and went in for a while. When he came out, he was carrying two kilograms of meat, five kilograms of flour, and one kilogram of egg cake.
This was probably the best thing left in the supply and marketing cooperative today, and Qin Xiao bought it all in one go.
When the two arrived at the train station, the train was late as expected. In this era, it was quite abnormal for a train to arrive on time.
