The pickled fish was successfully made.
When she went to work again, Linglong shared the recipe with Sister Niu.
"Since Captain Tong and Captain Zheng both said we'll eat it, then I guarantee we'll eat it. Unfortunately, the fish that arrived at the grocery store that day was already sold out. Next time they have fish, I'll cook it the way you said."
Sister Niu thought that she would be able to buy fish in grocery stores in the future, so she included this dish on her family’s late-night dinner menu.
The portions of food in the cafeteria are always huge, and even the spatulas are specially made.
Linglong has been waving her arms for a few days and feels that her arms are stronger. She can even feel the muscles when she touches them before going to bed at night.
Of course it is tiring, but she feels that she can earn money to support herself through her skills and hard work, which gives her a sense of accomplishment.
When Liu Baogen came to the cafeteria again, he would secretly look at Linglong, but after so many setbacks, he didn't dare to harass Linglong.
He was also doing the investigation, but Tong Dazhu told Zheng Tiansen that he had been to his home.
Zheng Tiansen also didn't want Liu Baogen to know Linglong's true identity, so he specifically warned people who knew the truth, which made Liu Baogen return empty-handed.
They might not gain anything by telling Liu Baogen, but if they leaked the news to the head of the group, they would be offended. Even a fool would know which side to choose.
Tong Dazhu didn't intend to target Liu Baogen for such a personal matter, but he still called Liu Baogen's company commander and said a few words to him.
Liu Baogen's company commander was very angry. How could his subordinates, whom he used to think were good, become restless after being punished?
Tong Dazhu was Linglong's relative, so even after being scolded, the company commander said nothing and could only call Liu Baogen over to reprimand him.
"Don't you want a future? Since you already have a partner, why are you still messing with Captain Tong's sister? If you don't want to stay in the army, then get out as soon as possible and don't drag me down with you."
Liu Baogen was scolded so badly that he could only suppress his desire to get close to Linglong.
Making a long-distance call costs money, so this time Liu's mother did not call her son. Instead, she instructed her daughter Liu Baoqin to write a letter and send it to her.
Believe it or not, Liu's mother wrote a letter about Linglong's transfer of household registration to the army.
When the letter arrived, Liu Baogen became even more restless after seeing it.
Before, he just thought that the child bride had come to the army, but it turned out that her household registration had been transferred to the army?
But how did she transfer her household registration? For herself? That's impossible.
The army's rule is that only family members of company commanders can accompany the troops. It is impossible to change it for him, not to mention that he has just been punished.
Moreover, he and his child bride did not get a marriage certificate, so they were not real husband and wife.
After the last punishment, the army now acknowledged that he and Xu Yingying were in a romantic relationship.
How did the child bride get her household registration transferred?
He didn't think his family had deceived him or made a mistake, because Liu's mother also went to several places to verify and confirmed that Linglong had really moved her household registration to her son's unit.
On the military side, Liu Baogen was unaware that the direction of the investigation was wrong, and the only person who knew the truth was silenced by Zheng Tiansen and no one told him the inside story.
But as far as the place is concerned, the Liu family, as Linglong's original settled family, is also a party involved. They will not be stopped from wanting to know where their family members have moved to.
The military has collective household registration, and of course there are management personnel.
After seeing the letter, Liu Baogen quickly found time to go to the place where their household registration was managed.
Zheng Tiansen also warned the staff in charge of household registration not to reveal Linglong's true situation to outsiders easily. However, since the staff did not know about Linglong's entanglement, he did not specifically point out Liu Baogen.
Liu Baogen brought some things over and was very attentive and talkative, and the staff did not frown upon him.
When he said he wanted to inquire about an old friend, the staff member didn't think much about it and asked, "What's his name?"
"Liu Hongdou." Liu Baogen said without thinking.
"Liu Hongdou." He muttered to himself as the staff started to check for him.
I just checked the list of people who recently transferred their household registration to the army, and didn't see this name.
"There is no such person. You must have made a mistake." The staff member frowned.
"Impossible." Liu Baogen also frowned. The letter said that it was confirmed that Hongdou had moved her household registration here.
Among the people in their family, perhaps only Liu's mother clearly remembered Linglong's original name, Zhong Linglong.
When Linglong first settled down at the Liu family, she simply changed her surname to follow theirs. When it was time to move her household registration, Linglong didn't want to have anything to do with the Liu family, so she also changed her surname to 䋤.
She could not remember anything before she was seven or eight years old, but she could not forget her own name. She clearly remembered that her surname was Zhong and her given name was Zhong Linglong.
This was also the truth she learned in her previous life when she found out that she was not a relative of the Liu family.
This name might be the only bond between her and her biological parents, and she is unwilling to give it up.
Liu Baogen returned empty-handed and didn't know what went wrong.
He wanted to contact his family, but the training was intense these days, so he had to postpone asking them. If he called, he would have to notify his family first, which was not convenient.
After much thought, he could only write a letter to the family, asking for the personal information used when the child bride transferred her household registration.
Military canteen.
"Linglong, a few pigs were slaughtered in the surrounding villages today. I want to get some pig offal. Can you do it?" asked the quartermaster.
"Sure, Chief Steward, just give it to me without worry." Linglong said confidently.
"Linglong, you are becoming more and more like a chef," Sister Niu said.
"Yes, Linglong, you have surpassed all our cooks." A soldier laughed.
"I eat whatever Linglong cooks, and I like it too."
"You only know how to eat. Look how fat you are."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Ever since Linglong came to help them, the atmosphere in the cafeteria has become better.
Sister Yuan is being jealous and saying sour words again.
The pig offal dishes are all more delicious than the other.
Linglong saw that the heart, liver, lungs, intestines, etc. were all there, but there was not much of each, and if they were made separately, not much could be made.
After thinking about it, she decided to make a famous snack, which is luzhu.
In addition to draining water, you can also put a lot of vegetables in it.
This dish requires a lot of garlic, and she can't peel it all by herself, so she has to ask everyone for help.
Looking forward to the food, everyone was peeling garlic enthusiastically.
The pig offal still needs to be processed, so it cannot be prepared in time for lunch and can only be made in the afternoon.
However, when the cafeteria opened for lunch at noon, Linglong remembered her previous promise. After seeing Zheng Tiansen and Xiao Jiang, she reminded them that there would be vegetables in the afternoon, and also told Tong Dazhu about it.
Liu Baogen felt uncomfortable because he saw that ever since Linglong went to the cadre window to get food, Zheng Tiansen not only got the food himself but also always talked to her.
In the army, once you reach the rank of platoon leader, even if you are a formal cadre, you can wear clothes with four pockets. The same is basically true for other units.
Therefore, the masses also jokingly call clothes with four pockets cadres' clothes.
Liu Baogen was removed from his position as platoon leader, but his cadre rank was not lowered and he still wore clothes with four pockets. He could have gotten his meals at the cadre window, but he hadn't gotten his meals there for many days.
Knowing that there would be something to eat in the afternoon, Zheng Tiansen and Xiao Jiang were looking forward to it. Tong Dazhu also looked at his watch from time to time, looking forward to eating.
As soon as the time came, Tong Dazhu ran to call Zheng Tiansen to go to the cafeteria together.
The stewed food had already been prepared and was placed in front of the window. They could smell the fragrance as soon as they entered the cafeteria.
Tong Dazhu was the first to rush to the window. "Linglong, give me two, and I'll take one to my mother."
"Yes." Linglong smiled.
Military dependents in the army can also eat in the army canteen with money and tickets, but they usually don’t eat there very often. However, if the canteen cooks some delicious dishes, there are still people who are willing to come and buy a portion.
At least Sister Niu and the others also thought about bringing one for their own home.
Of course, our own people receive special treatment. Linglong has already served a small bowl of food and placed it separately.
Most of it was left for them to eat, and the rest was taken away with money.
Liu Baogen also went into the cafeteria to eat. He heard everyone talking about how delicious the new dishes were and praising Linglong.
The dish was originally delicious, but he was just about to lose his appetite because he couldn't get close to Linglong. Suddenly, the name that was mentioned so frequently stimulated him.
Linglong, Linglong, wait, my child bride, it seems that this was her name?
No wonder he couldn't find Liu Hongdou. How could he have forgotten that child brides have a big reputation?
Thinking of this, he immediately looked towards the food window.
