"I'm just getting ready to..."
Before Qiao Jiangxin could finish his words, Liu Xinyan hurriedly replied, "Not yet."
After saying that, she winked at Gu Yunzhou and said, "Brother Gu, don't you think so?"
Gu Yunzhou also nodded, "Not yet, but my appetite is not very good, so I can only eat less."
Qiao Jiangxin turned around and went to eat the noodles.
Ten minutes later, the three men squatted at the door, each holding a coarse porcelain bowl.
Liu Xinyan ate with slurps, "Well, Jiang Xin, what did you put in this noodle? Why is it better than mine?"
Qiao Jiangxin ate and said, "I added lard and salt."
Liu Xinyan said, "I feel the same way. Why does it taste different? Your cooking is especially delicious."
Qiao Jiangxin didn't even raise his eyelids, "I know, that's why I want to open a restaurant."
Liu Xinyan raised her head and drank all the soup. "When the business opens, I'll work for you. Can you provide me with food?"
Seeing Liu Xinyan's foodie look, Qiao Jiangxin rolled her eyes and said, "Comrade Liu, don't forget the mission the organization has assigned to you. You are here to take care of Brother Gu. You are a nurse in a military hospital, not a waiter in a small restaurant!"
In the mountains.
Qiao Jiangxin was walking in front carrying a basket, and Liu Xinyan was following behind her in a lifeless manner.
Gu Yunzhou was at the back. Compared to Liu Xinyan who was panting, he was leisurely as if he was taking a walk.
Qiao Jiangxin turned around and glanced at him.
He really looked like he was appreciating the countryside.
"Jiang Xin, take a break." Liu Xinyan said to Qiao Jiangxin in front of her.
Qiao Jiangxin pointed at the stone next to him and said, "I told you not to come, but you insisted on coming. You have never been into the mountains before, it's strange that you can keep up."
As she spoke, she reached out and broke off a few tender branches of thorny fruit from the side, and handed two plump and tender ones to Liu Xinyan and Gu Yunzhou.
He picked up one and said to the two of them, "Do this like me. Peel off the outer skin and you can eat the inside."
“Can I eat it?”
When Liu Xinyan heard about food, she perked up and instantly stopped feeling tired.
I followed Qiao Jiangxin's example, peeled the skin, and put it in my mouth to bite.
"Hmm, it seems to have no taste, like eating a raw lettuce core."
"Jiang Xin, is there anything else to eat? I heard from Uncle Cheng that there are many good things on the mountain, such as raspberries, sweet potatoes, milk foam, wild hawthorn, osmanthus fragrans, wax gourd, horseradish..."
Liu Xinyan recited a long string in one breath.
Qiao Jiangxin, a countryman who was born and raised in the countryside, was shocked. "How do you remember it so clearly?"
Liu Xinyan said seriously, "Because I have never eaten it!"
"Puchi~"
“Hahahahaha~”
Qiao Jiangxin laughed so hard that she fell from side to side. Her eyes narrowed into small crescents, revealing her off-white teeth. Her smile was clean and healing.
Gu Yunzhou couldn't help but laugh along.
Later, Liu Xinyan was also infected.
“Hahahahaha~”
There were mixed laughter in the mountains and fields.
It took a while for everyone to fall silent.
Liu Xinyan also liked gossip, and she had heard from Aunt Niu about Qiao Jiangxin's previous life.
"Jiang Xin, how do you stay so happy all the time?"
Qiao Jiangxin smiled, "Want to know? I'll tell you.
Life is short, no matter how you live it is only a few decades, so don’t worry about others or what the weather will be like tomorrow, that is all other people’s business, we must have the sun in our own hearts…”
