Amid the laughter and gazes of the crowd, the four of them felt very embarrassed.
Xiao Hui and Miao Miao simply gave up. "It's too difficult. I thought it would be easy, but it turned out to be impossible to catch."
Su Ling also wanted to come back awkwardly.
Xie Xiangyang sneered, "Xiao Zhao, please don't embarrass our troops. Aren't you quite capable during normal training? But at the critical moment, can't you even catch a chicken?"
Xiao Zhao also smiled awkwardly.
In fact, he was only in a group with Su Ling just now, and he felt a little embarrassed and couldn't let go.
Now that Su Ling is gone, coupled with the stimulation from Xie Xiangyang.
Xiao Zhao rolled up his sleeves again and focused on looking for the target.
This time, it did not disappoint.
Xiao Zhao caught two chickens in just two tries.
Su Ling clapped her hands and said excitedly, "How amazing!"
Xiao Zhao felt a little embarrassed by her praise and just said, "I just didn't find the technique."
Seeing the harmonious atmosphere between the two, Yan Wenfeng at the side couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Comrade Su and Comrade Xiao Zhao, are they in a relationship?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw Yan Wenfeng asked so directly.
They all said they were not sure.
Ask her to ask the person involved directly.
After hearing this, Su Ling hurriedly shook her head to explain that it was not the case, and ran back with a blushing face.
Xiao Zhao also waved his hands awkwardly.
With coconuts and two chickens.
Yan Wenfeng thought about getting some more vegetables to make sure there was enough food, so on the way back she led everyone to the back of the house.
"This is the vegetable garden that Sister Ai Ling and I grew up in. Let's get some vegetables back. Even though they're not very expensive, they're relatively fresh."
It was the first time that Jiang Qingyue came here and saw such a large vegetable garden.
It's already autumn and it's still growing vigorously.
I couldn't help but exclaimed, "You two have great skills in growing this kind of vegetable. It's almost as good as what our comrades in the South Courtyard grow."
We are usually used to eating meals in the cafeteria.
Or you can go to the farmer's market and buy freshly picked vegetables.
It is rare to see such a large vegetable garden with so many varieties.
For a moment, everyone felt it was very novel, and they all went to dig taro, pick peppers, and cut leeks...
It's a different experience.
Behind the vegetable garden is a small river with very clear water.
Xie Xiangyang asked casually, "I wonder if there are any fish in this ditch?"
Yan Wenfeng smiled and turned her head, "Yes, yes, do you want to catch fish?"
Several men could not join in the joy of women and children picking vegetables.
They all stood outside the vegetable garden and watched.
When they heard that they could catch fish, they naturally became interested.
Xie Xiangyang smiled and said, "Is it okay? This is raised by your team, right?"
Yan Wenfeng shook her head. "They are all wild. It's okay. There are fewer people in our village than before. Most of them are elderly. No one has the time to deal with this. They are just caught randomly."
When the men heard this, they became interested.
"There's no point in catching fish? I have nothing to do today anyway, why not go fishing?"
"Fishing? But we don't have fishing rods here."
"It's easy, we can do it ourselves."
As he said that, Xie Xiangyang took Xiao Zhao to cut bamboo nearby.
Yan Wenfeng hurriedly went to find some ropes and needles for the few people and handed them to Zhou Zhengting.
Xiao Hui took a few children to dig earthworms nearby.
After a few people worked hard, they actually made a few simple fishing rods very quickly.
Hu Changying saw it and laughed with Jiang Qingyue, "Can this fishing rod catch fish?"
Jiang Qingyue also smiled, "It's just to kill time and save them from being bored."
After saying that, he left the four men to fish by the water.
The rest of the people returned to the old house together.
Planning to prepare lunch.
Yan Wenfeng was responsible for killing and plucking the chickens.
Li Ailing is responsible for cooking in the kitchen.
Miaomiao went to make a fire.
Jiang Qingyue took Su Ling to the yard to pick and wash vegetables.
Only Hu Changying was left sitting there with her bulging belly, looking at the child and chatting with a few people.
"It would be good to let the men find something to do. We women can chat together and save them from being embarrassed."
"That's right. Except for Captain Xie who has a more cheerful temper, the rest are more dull than the others."
Several people were talking.
Then I saw Yan Wenfeng had already started killing chickens in the corner.
He gently wiped the chicken's neck, and it immediately fell to the ground and started flapping its wings.
Hu Changying and Su Ling were both shocked by this. "My goodness, this girl Wenfeng is really fierce, isn't she?"
Jiang Qingyue smiled and said, "Sister Wenfeng is really good at her job. I was also shocked the first time I saw her killing a chicken."
"Sister Ai Ling is also very capable. Look, she is also very efficient when cooking."
Hu Changying and Su Ling both nodded. "They can get along well with each other. They are both capable people."
"If you don't know, you would think they are sisters."
After hearing this, Yan Wenfeng hurriedly walked over with a smile, "That's right, Ailing and I are no different from real sisters now. We usually divide the work at home and discuss things with each other."
Li Ailing in the kitchen also smiled and nodded, "Yes, Wenfeng is almost like my biological sister."
Everyone was talking and laughing, and the chicken was already being stir-fried in a large iron pot in the kitchen.
Not long after, a strong fragrance wafted out from the kitchen.
The chicken has just been stewed and I am preparing to stir-fry some vegetables.
Then Zhou Zhengting and others came over carrying two strings of fish.
Hu Changying said, "Is it caught? So many fish?"
Xie Xiangyang smiled and said, "Of course I did. I wanted to continue fishing, but you didn't even prepare a bucket for us. So I had to come back first and go after dinner."
Yan Wenfeng quickly took out a bucket and said, "I'm sorry, I thought I wouldn't catch many and forgot about it. I didn't expect to catch so many."
Xie Xiangyang smiled and said, "I'm just kidding. It's mainly because the water here is good and the fish are plump and delicious."
Yan Wenfeng quickly took the fish and prepared to kill it.
"Just in time for an extra dish at noon."
Because everyone caught fish, the lunch was more abundant.
Li Ailing picked out the crucian carp and made soup with it, and used the remaining fish to make a pot of braised mixed fish.
There was also a large pot of chicken stewing in the pot.
Fried pork with pepper, fried eggs with chives, chicken blood tofu, cold cucumber salad...
There are also clam stew, roasted taro and other dishes for the children.
Although they all look like very ordinary home-cooked dishes.
But because it is fresh, it looks very appetizing.
Especially the eggs that the children had just found from the chicken coop. They were fried in a golden color and smelled very fragrant.
I don’t know if I’m tired from playing.
It was so delicious that everyone finished all the food at noon.
Nothing was wasted.
Li Ailing was a little embarrassed, "Is everyone full? Is it enough?"
Jiang Qingyue explained with a smile, "We are almost full. Sister Ailing, the food you cooked is delicious. Even though we are full, we forced ourselves to finish it. No food should be left."
After hearing this, Li Ailing finally felt relieved.
