Chapter 404: You are sincere to my sister, but what about your Rongrong?
There were all kinds of vegetables at home, so it was not difficult for Wen Chuji and Xia Huaishan to cook. Xia Huaishan used a big pot to make the sauerkraut rice that the family used to like to eat in winter. Wen Chuji stewed some cabbage, vermicelli and tofu, and mixed some bean sprouts, and dinner was ready.
When the food was served, Wenjiu was a little shocked when he looked at the rice in the bowl.
“Sauerkraut fried rice?”
Why go to so much trouble to cook rice and then stir-fry sauerkraut when there are already vegetables to stir-fry?
Do they want to eat?
Xia Huaishan explained: "No, this is pickled cabbage rice. It tastes amazing when paired with the fermented bean curd that my aunt brought from home. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself."
He steamed it for a long time and put corn kernels in it. In addition, the rice was turned over several times and steamed repeatedly, so it had some crust. It was not as soft as normal rice when chewed, but had the crispy fragrance of the crust.
After tasting the warm wine, his eyes lit up. It was indeed as delicious as Xia Huaishan said.
“It tastes really good!”
"It will taste better with some fermented bean curd." Xia Huaishan said as he opened the lid of the fermented bean curd and handed it to Wen Jiu as if he was presenting a treasure.
He scooped a little of the warm wine with chopsticks and mixed it with the rice in the bowl and tasted it.
"tasty!"
"Brother, you try it too."
Wen Chuji also scooped a little and tasted it, then nodded and said, "It's really delicious."
Xia Huaishan was very proud. "Of course. We used to make corn-only dishes and they were delicious. How can they not be delicious now that we've added rice?"
Moreover, there was no fermented bean curd at that time. We used pure corn kernels and sauerkraut. When frying the sauerkraut, we were so poor that we didn’t even dare to add more oil, but the whole family still ate it with gusto.
Unfortunately, although I have good food now, I can no longer find my family members.
But it doesn't matter.
He has a family now.
Seeing Wen Jiu and Wen Chuji enjoying the meal so much, Xia Huaishan said happily, "I'll make it for my dad and Rongrong to try someday. They probably haven't eaten this kind of meal before."
Wenjiu deliberately made an "oh" sound, poked it with chopsticks and put on a look of defiance.
"So we are here to test poison!"
"If we think it tastes good, you can make it for Rongrong and your dad. If we think it doesn't taste good, you don't have to make it."
"You're such a jerk!"
"How is that possible?"
Xia Huaishan's eyes widened in anxiety, "I just suddenly remembered it."
He swore!
He really didn't think about it that way!
"Sister-in-law, please don't misunderstand me. My true love for you is evident to all!"
I haven't even got my wife yet!!
Don't offend her good sister!
Seeing Xia Huaishan looking like he was facing a powerful enemy, Wen Jiu couldn't help but chuckle, "Alright, I'm just teasing you! Hurry up and eat, or it will get cold."
Wen Chuji was speechless, "How could I have someone as stupid as you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You are sincere to my sister, but what about your Rongrong?"
Xia Huaishan was busy eating and didn't notice anything was wrong.
"Why am I so stupid?"
"They are different!"
"Sister-in-law is sister-in-law and Rongrong is Rongrong. Their true feelings must be different!"
Wen Chuji: “…”
Okay!
You are right!
He was too lazy to look at Xia Huaishan, so he turned to look at Wenjiu who was sitting opposite him. Seeing her swollen eyes, he sighed and said, "If you have nothing to do at home, crochet a sweater for me to wear, and don't think about those useless things all day long."
What should I do if my eyes are damaged from crying?
There is still a long time to come!
Wen Jiu knew that Wen Chuji wanted to find something to divert his attention, so he rubbed his sore eyes and rolled them deliberately, pointing to the basket with red paper beside him.
“I’m so busy!”
"How can I have the time to knit a sweater for you? Besides, how can I knit a sweater? When have you ever seen me knit a sweater?"
She only knows how to make clothes; knitting sweaters is beyond her ability.
Wen Chuji said calmly: "I forgot."
During the past six months, Wen Jiu always gave him the feeling that she knew everything, and he almost forgot that she knew nothing in the past two years.
He thought for a moment and then said, "Then make me a black coat!"
It’s not too cold after the Chinese New Year, so you can wear it.
Wenjiu secretly found it funny. Was he afraid that she would be too idle and think badly?
It’s great to have a brother!
"Okay, I'll go home tomorrow after I finish my work and buy some fabric to make it for you."
"When will you be back tomorrow?" Wen Chuji was not surprised by this result.
She felt lonely here during the New Year, so it was nice to go back home and have everyone at home.
"After lunch?" Wenjiu thought about it and felt that he should be able to finish the rest in the morning. Besides, it was too cold in the morning and the road might be frozen, so it would not be safe to drive.
Wen Chuji nodded, "Okay."
Xia Huaishan interrupted, "Sister-in-law, don't forget to bring me some delicious food when you come back! The food in the army is terrible. When you're not at home, I have nowhere to go to improve my diet."
It has been snowing a lot recently and it is hard to have sunny days. In addition, it is the end of the year and it is very busy, so it is difficult for him to go to the city to find He Rongrong.
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Why not? The vegetables and oil are all in the kitchen. You can cook them yourself when you come! Isn't that what I do at home? I can also change the water for my flowers."
"That's right!"
Xia Huaishan nodded thoughtfully, "I've eaten all the good things in your house, don't blame me when you come back!"
"Eat with your stomach full!"
"Just remember to change the water for my flower and make sure it's still alive when I come back."
This bouquet of flowers has a lot of buds. If you change the water on time, it will definitely last for seven or eight days.
After dinner, Xia Huaishan cleaned up and went to wash the dishes. Wen Chuji was worried and gave Wen Jiu a few more instructions. When Xia Huaishan came out, he left with him.
Peace returned to the house.
It seems to be exceptionally cold.
She warmed the wine, rubbed her hands, took the kettle off the stove, poured some water into the foot basin, soaked her feet, went back to the room, held Lu Beiye in her arms, wearing an unwashed vest, and went to sleep.
There was his scent on the vest, and she felt less anxious and lonely when she smelled it, as if Lu Beiye was still at home with her.
She fell asleep quickly.
Also had a beautiful dream.
I dreamed that Lu Beiye came back, and they gave birth to a pair of beautiful dragon and phoenix twins.
Unfortunately, when I woke up, the room next to me was still cold. Everything in the dream no longer existed.
The sense of gap was so great that Wenjiu felt a little overwhelmed. She spent the second half of the night with her eyes closed. When she saw the window was light, she got up, washed and continued to make the lantern. She finished it quickly so that she could return to the courtyard.
She felt that she couldn't be alone at home, because Lu Beiye's shadow was everywhere, and she would think of him whenever she saw him——
It makes me feel uncomfortable whenever I think about it!
Zhang Mei brought breakfast to Wenjiu, who ate it without hesitation. When she was done and ready to leave, she cleaned up the dishes at home that were easy to spoil and could not be kept, and also brought two bones over for her to cook.
After tidying up the house and warming the wine, she locked the door, left the key outside and went out. When she went to town to buy something, she suddenly heard someone calling her.
"Warming wine?"
"Is that you?"
