Chapter 163: Who wants to comfort you?
After cleaning the chicken, Lu Qingqing chopped it into two halves with a knife. She prepared one half to make mushroom soup in the evening, and put the other half in the refrigerator to be stewed tomorrow night.
When Lu Beiye left in the morning, Wen Jiu had already told him to invite Wen Chuji and Xia Huaishan to his home for dinner in the evening and to make some delicious food for them so that they would have the strength to win the competition.
Wen Jiu took out some ribs and meat, put the rest in the refrigerator, and prepared side dishes with Lu Qingqing.
Wen Jinyan peeled garlic, cut it into cloves and put them in a basket.
By the time the side dishes were ready, Wen Jinyan had peeled the garlic to be planted, and the three of them carried hoes and took the seedlings to the fields. They also took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake they had bought to Yuan Fang and Lin Xiulian's home for the children to eat.
The sunset turned half the sky red, and Wen Jinyan felt that growing vegetables was not a very reliable idea.
"Is it okay to plant them now? Will the sun come out tomorrow and kill the seedlings?"
Lu Qingqing looked up at the sky and said firmly, "No, it might rain tonight."
There are so many hook clouds.
Judging from her experience, the rain will come at the latest tomorrow morning.
Wen Jianyan and Wen Jiu both believed it without a doubt. Farmers make a living by farming and have their own predictions about the weather.
Lu Qingqing knew that Wen Jiu and Wen Jianyan knew nothing about growing vegetables, so she took the initiative to assign tasks to them when they arrived at the vegetable field.
"Sister-in-law, go pick some branches, the kind with green leaves."
"In other words, you dig the holes for the vegetables." Lu Qingqing said as she picked up the hoe and dug two rows. "I'll show you how to do it. The distance is this wide. You dig and I'll plant."
It’s getting late, I’d better finish it quickly so I can go home and cook.
Wen Jinyan did it in an orderly manner. He dug the hole first, and Lu Qingqing planted the cabbage directly in it. Finally, they used the leaves that were picked up from warm wine to insert around the seedlings.
The leaves can protect the seedlings, block the rain when it rains, and provide shade when the sun is out.
Planting garlic is relatively simple.
Use a hoe to dig the groove, then press the pointed end of the garlic cloves upwards against the edge of the groove, and finally cover the garlic cloves with soil.
Spinach and radish are all seeds. Just divide the vegetable plot into sections and scatter them there. Then cover them with soil and use a hoe to break up the mud and make it flat. Similarly, cover each plot with leaves.
Lu Qingqing felt a little regretful. "If there was some pig manure or cow manure or something like that, it would definitely germinate quickly if we sprinkled it in."
When growing vegetables at home, we use manure as fertilizer, and the vegetables we grow grow particularly well.
Wen Jiu patted the mud off his hands and said with a smile, "Let's go home first if there's nothing else. Then ask your brother what fertilizer he used to grow vegetables. I'll get it and sprinkle it in."
There are so many troops!
It should be easy to get some farmyard manure.
"Wait, I'll bury the onions and leave." Lu Qingqing said as she used a hoe to dig up the soil and buried the roots of the onions deep inside.
Wen Jiu didn't understand and asked, "What is this?"
Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "It's cold in winter, and the scallion leaves will basically freeze and spoil. If you bury the scallion roots in the mud, they won't freeze and spoil. In winter, we basically eat scallion roots, so we need to bury more."
“So that’s how it is.”
Wenjiu nodded, and learned something new. Growing vegetables is really a science.
After planting the vegetables, the three of them packed up their things and slowly went home in the evening breeze.
There were only two kerosene stoves at home, so when Lu Qingqing got home, she first stewed lotus root and pork ribs soup and mushroom and chicken soup, which took a lot of time.
When Lu Beiye finished his work and returned with Wen Chuji and Xia Huaishan, the meal was ready.
Before Wen Jiu opened his mouth to ask, Xia Huaishan poured the wine out like beans.
"Is the celebration banquet ready?"
"Let me tell you! Lao Lu was really awesome in the competition today. He looked like he could kill any god or Buddha he met. Whoever met him would be in trouble. Not only did he win the individual competitions miserably, he also led us to victory in the team competition."
"Several companies were so angry that they cried. They were eliminated in the preliminary round. The scene of hundreds of people crying was simply appalling..."
Lu Beiye smiled, taking off his coat and hanging it on the wall. He patted Xia Huaishan on the shoulder and said, "You're the only one who talks too much? Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."
"I just talk too much, right?"
"Once you win first place, I won't even look at anyone who talks to me from now on."
"Go to the master." Lu Beiye cursed with a smile.
Xia Huaishan happily took off his coat and ran to the bathroom to wash his hands and face.
Wenjiu was also very excited. If there weren't so many people watching, she would have jumped on Lu Beiye and kissed him hard.
“It is indeed good.”
"If he performs steadily, he will have no problem winning the championship." Wen Chuji is also very optimistic about Lu Beiye. Not losing in the preliminary round means he has the upper hand. Even Qiao Yue still has a gap with him.
Seeing that the soldiers he led were so outstanding, he was naturally proud.
"My sister's money spent on buying chicken and meat was not in vain!"
"Keep working hard, Captain Lu, and try to step on my brother and get to the top as soon as possible. Become more successful than him and let Wen Xiaojiu walk around with ease." Wen Jinyan rarely gave Lu Beiye a good look.
"Go and dream on!" Wen Chuji couldn't help but give Wen Jianyan two kicks, "Do you really think it's that easy to get into the army?"
The troop hierarchy is strict.
Given Lu Beiye's experience, it is basically impossible for him to be promoted above him!
"Go and serve your food, stop talking nonsense. Your sister is not a crab, why is she walking sideways? She has a stupid brain, what do you think if she gets hit and becomes stupid?"
"Wen Chuji——"
Wen Jiu glared, "Who are you calling stupid?"
She is so smart and cute, how can she be stupid?
If you want to talk about stupidity, he is the one who is stupid, for he would give up such a good girl!
"You're not stupid!"
Lu Beiye glanced at Wen Chuji and said, "She is as old as you are. Why are you teasing her? If she gets angry and flips the table, will we still have food to eat tonight?"
Wen Chuji: "..." OK! The wife-protecting maniac even ignored his brother-in-law and boss. Not only did he say that he was too old, he also secretly said that he was immature...
He has protected his sister for twenty years, but now he doesn't even have the qualifications to say a word?
Seeing Wen Chuji's depressed face, Wen Jinyan's smiling mouth almost reached his ears.
Let you show off!
Someone has caught him!
“Ya yaya—”
Xia Huaishan's face was full of embarrassment, "Captain Lu, the way he protects his wife is really manly!"
"Is Captain Wen feeling uncomfortable?"
"I'll give you a hug of love." He said as he hugged Wen Chuji's neck, "Anyway, no one wants us, so let's comfort each other!"
Wen Chuji's face was full of disgust, and he stretched out his hands to tear him away from himself, "Get lost!"
"If no one wants you, there are still people who want me!"
"Who wants to comfort you?"
Xia Huaishan was stunned. After all this time, he was the only one that no one wanted?
Is this still the life we live in?
He must take revenge on them!
Eat up all the delicious food tonight and let them suffer the punishment of being hungry.
