Chapter 55: Feeling of Living a Lifetime



Hearing the discussions behind them, Zhou Zhengting and Jiang Qingyue both felt their backs tighten.

Just when I was feeling awkward, I saw Chen Meiying walking towards me from a distance.

When Chen Meiying saw the two people, she immediately changed direction and ran away.

Jiang Qingyue glanced at Zhou Zhengting and joked, "This girl must have been mad to death when she received the wontons you returned yesterday."

Zhou Zhengting sighed, "Whether she is angry or not has nothing to do with me. I am not familiar with her."

"My mouth is the toughest of all."

"......"

While the two were bickering, the supply and marketing cooperative had already arrived.

However, the supply and marketing cooperative here is different from the ones in the city. It is more like a small vegetable market and grocery store.

Large quantities of vegetables were piled together, looking as if they had just been unloaded from a ship.

The two of them walked around one by one, and Jiang Qingyue was a little worried, "There are too few varieties of dishes."

"It's like this on the island, and conditions are even more limited in winter, so just make do with what you have."

"By the way, didn't you say last time in the hospital that you wanted to treat Xie Xiangyang and the others to dinner? I see the weather is good today, why not tonight?"

"Okay, then buy whatever you have. They're not picky anyway."

"good."

The two men discussed as they walked.

I bought a piece of pork belly, some bones, a chicken, and a piece of fat from a meat stall to prepare to make oil.

There are only a few kinds of vegetables here: cabbage, radish, potato, winter melon and onion.

Zhou Zhengting advised her to buy more of each item, as these things would last long.

"We can't move so many things back."

"It's okay. Buy it as soon as possible. I'll ask someone to move it over later. You don't know that buying things on this island depends on the weather. When it snows or rains, the boat won't come for several days."

"Okay."

After buying the vegetables, Jiang Qingyue also bought some tofu and vermicelli to make side dishes.

As for rice and noodles, they are of course indispensable.

There are also eggs. Supplies are in short supply on the island, so Zhou Zhengting can only eat more eggs to supplement his nutrition.

There was nothing in the dormitory kitchen right now, so Jiang Qingyue asked Zhou Zhengting to watch over the dishes outside.

I also bought pots, pans, and chopsticks in the grocery section.

Looking at Jiang Qingyue walking around in front buying trivial things necessary for daily life, Zhou Zhengting couldn't help but feel warm.

After staying on the island for two years, I finally felt like I was living a normal life.

And the dormitory is no longer a cold place to sleep.

By the time Jiang Qingyue had bought everything, the small stall Zhou Zhengting was guarding had grown into a large stall.

"Is this too much?"

"It's okay. I'll call those guys to let them know about dinner tonight and ask them to move the things."

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help laughing. He hadn't even invited anyone to dinner, but he already started ordering people around.

When Xie Xiangyang came over with a brother, he was stunned when he saw so many things in front of them.

"Platoon Leader Zhou, are you guys preparing to stock up for the New Year?"

"You are the only one who is greedy. You guys are such big eaters. How can you buy more?"

"Hehe, I'll tell my brothers to eat as much as they want that night."

After saying that, the two of them borrowed a cart and transported the things back.

After putting everything in place, Jiang Qingyue planned to refine the fat first.

Looking at the remaining oil residue, Jiang Qingyue prepared some cabbage and vermicelli.

I plan to simply make some buns for lunch and add some malted milk to make a meal.

The freshly wrapped buns are soft and steaming hot, and the pork scraps inside are fragrant.

Zhou Zhengting ate five or six in one breath before stopping.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, feeling comfortable.

Jiang Qingyue had just boiled a large pot of hot water. Seeing the bright sunshine at noon, she asked Zhou Zhengting, "Didn't you say your scalp was itchy last night? How about I wash your hair while the sun is shining brightly?"

Zhou Zhengting was more than happy to ask, "Thank you for your help then."

"Then lie down beside the bed, I'll move a stool to wash you."

The conditions were limited and Zhou Zhengting was recovering from his injuries, so we had to give him a break this time.

The warm water slid over his scalp, and Zhou Zhengting groaned in comfort.

“Is your scalp itchy?”

“A little.”

Zhou Zhengting had a bruise on his head before, and although the swelling has subsided now, Jiang Qingyue didn't dare to rub it hard.

I had to carefully use my fingertips to scratch it for him.

The numbing feeling spread throughout the body like an electric current.

Although Zhou Zhengting lay there expressionless, his red ears had already betrayed him.

"Jiang Qingyue, just wash it casually."

"Well, just rinse it again."

After washing his hair, Jiang Qingyue thought about preparing dinner in advance, so she threw a towel to him.

Let him sit by the window in the sun and wipe it off himself.

He turned and went into the kitchen, starting to busy himself with cooking.

Zhou Zhengting sat in the living room, watching the busy figures in the kitchen, and suddenly understood what a simple and happy life was.

When I thought about the absence of nearly two years, I couldn't help but feel annoyed.

If I hadn't been so angry and left in a rage, would we be living like this every day in the countryside now?

Jiang Qingyue, who was in the kitchen, had no time to see what Zhou Zhengting was doing, nor did she know what he was thinking at the moment.

At this moment, she was busy in the kitchen, preparing dishes for dinner.

There are only two pots on the stove, and Jiang Qingyue plans to stew the braised pork ribs and braised pork first.

The roast chicken with potatoes is placed at the back.

Wash and prepare the remaining vegetables first so that you will still have time to stir-fry them when the time is almost up.
