Zheng Wenjing took on the task of washing mushrooms. After He Tingjun cleaned the partridges and chopped them into pieces, she took the initiative to say that she would help Yun Qiao light the fire.
Making fire has always been He Tingjun's job, and he is happy to do it.
Now that his job was taken away, He Tingjun glared at Zheng Wenjing with some resentment.
Yun Qiao looked at him and smiled, comforting him, "Brother He, just give the stewed meat to me and Wen Jing. If you and Brother Qin feel stuffy in the room, you can go out and get some fresh air."
He Tingjun reluctantly took Qin Zheng out to get some fresh air.
Wen Jing sat contentedly in front of the stove and helped Yun Qiao light the fire.
Yun Qiao heats oil in a pan, adds the partridge and stir-fries it, first adds scallion, ginger, white wine, soybean paste to season it, then adds peppercorns, star anise, bay leaves and other spices to enhance the flavor. After the aroma comes out, add water to cover the meat, cover the pot and simmer.
While the meat was stewing, Yun Qiao had some free time and finally had time to interrogate Zheng Wenjing.
"Wenjing, that handsome guy you told me about earlier who I fell in love with at first sight, is that Brother Qin?"
Zheng Wenjing blushed immediately after hearing this and stammered, "You, guess what?"
Yun Qiao glanced at her with a look of 'you're talking nonsense' on his face, "Your behavior was so obvious, and I'm not blind, how could I not guess it?"
"Ah, is it really that obvious?"
Yun Qiao nodded: "It's obvious! His eyes are almost glued to her face!"
Didn't he discover it too?
Thinking of this, Zheng Wenjing felt shy and embarrassed, and lowered her head in embarrassment.
"But Wenjing, your judgment is quite good this time. You've found a reliable person." Yun Qiao rarely affirmed her judgment. "Brother Qin and Brother He are from the same unit and have been soldiers for more than ten years. He has been in the army for such a long time. His character is not to be doubted, but at least he doesn't have any bad habits or problems with his work style."
When Zheng Wenjing heard Yun Qiao say that Qin Zheng had been in the army for more than ten years, she suddenly remembered what she had said before, "Brother Qin is in his thirties." She couldn't help but ask, "Yun Qiao, is Brother Qin really in his thirties?"
She didn't dare to believe it, because in her opinion, a man in his thirties was already an old man.
Like Captain Yang and the second-married man her family had arranged for her, both were in their thirties. She looked like she was from a different generation than them.
But Qin Zheng is different.
He looks so young, not only tall and straight, but also handsome. Standing next to He Tingjun, he is no less handsome than him. The two of them look like they are of the same age, not like an "old man" in his thirties at all.
"Yes." Yun Qiao thought for a moment and said, "She seems to be thirty-one years old."
"Thirty-one..." Zheng Wenjing bit her lip in hesitation, and began to back out. "He's already thirty-one, a full ten years older than me."
"Yun Qiao, you said he's already over 30 and still hasn't started a family... Is there some hidden illness?"
