Chapter 310: Slurping Noodles

Bird's nest is really expensive. Rich people like to eat it, especially women.

Zheng Qiangwei immediately said, "I'll call back and ask if I can help you get a Overseas Chinese Visa Certificate."

Liu Yinyin decided not to sell the bird's nest to the system for the time being.

She needs an electric fan more than money.

Liu Yinyin worked a whole day today, and it will be her turn to rest tomorrow.

After get off work, Liu Yinyin went to the post office first.

Someone from the Liu family sent her a package.

After returning home, Liu Yinyin took a pair of scissors and opened the package. There were quite a lot of things sent.

Huang Xiaoyue gave her a big bag of dried vegetables, which included many kinds, such as dried cowpeas, dried eggplants, dried lettuce, and dried radish.

Each kind of dried vegetable weighs more than one kilogram.

There was also a bag of dried sweet potatoes, weighing five or six pounds.

These things were given to Liu Yinyin by Huang Xiaoyue.

Jiang Cuihua also sent her some things, a bag of dried bamboo shoots and a bag of dried mushrooms.

I sent two summer clothes to Brother Liu and Brother Liu...

Liu Yinyin was busy packing her things when she suddenly heard a noise outside.

"dad......"

Gu Yanyan was very excited to see Gu Cheng coming back, and ran over on his short legs.

Gu Cheng was busy with training during this period and had not been home for another half a month.

"Son, wait a minute." Gu Cheng was holding two large sacks in his hands.

"I'm back." Liu Yinyin put down the work in her hands and walked out of the house.

But after not seeing him for only half a month, Gu had become darker and thinner, and his face was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

Still in good spirits.

Gu Cheng said with a smile: "Look what good things I brought you."

Liu Yinyin asked curiously, "Didn't you go for training? Where did you get so many things?"

Two big sacks.

Gu Cheng said: "I found it in the mountains."

A larger bag containing some fruits.

There are many fruit trees on the mountain, but they are far away and no one picks the fruits. So when they are training, they just pick them because it would be a pity if they were left to rot on the trees.

Liu Yinyin opened the bag and saw that there were quite a lot of fruits.

Peaches, kumquats, and even cherries!

Gu Cheng took another bag and untied it, saying, "Look what's in here..."

Liu Yinyin was really shocked this time, her eyes sparkled as she asked, "There are also pheasants?"

Yes, there were three live pheasants in the bag.

Gu Cheng explained: "These three pheasants are all female and can be kept to lay eggs."

It will take at least another two or three months for the little hens we raise at home to lay eggs.

Gu Cheng had more egg tickets than others in a month, but it was only two kilograms.

Liu Yinyin was a handyman. Her family produced two kilograms of eggs a month, which was not enough to eat.

It is also troublesome to go to the village to exchange duck eggs.

Gu Cheng caught a few live pheasants in the mountains and brought them back to lay eggs.

Liu Yinyin was naturally happy that there were ready-made hens laying eggs. Now she finally didn't have to rack her brains thinking about how to buy eggs to eat.

There is a newly built chicken coop at home, so you can just throw it in.

Liu Yinyin said in a good mood: "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."

"Mom, eat noodles." Upon hearing the word "food", Gu Yanyan immediately rushed to speak.

During this period when Gu Cheng was away, Liu Yinyin rarely cooked noodles.

The main reason is that she and Gu Yanyan can’t eat much.

Cooking noodles is troublesome, so Liu Yinyin is too lazy to bother with it.

Gu Cheng rubbed Gu Yanyan's little head and said, "Let's eat noodles tonight?"

Liu Yinyin nodded: "Okay, I'll cook some lean meat noodles, and we'll have them together in the evening. You go take a shower first..."

Gu Yanyan was a smart kid. He grinned and said, "Dad stinks."

I trained in the mountains for half a month without the opportunity to take a shower. My body was covered in sweat for so long, it was impossible not to stink.

"What? You dare to disrespect your father?" Gu Cheng picked up the kid with one hand and held it under his armpit.

"Dad stinks..." Gu Yanyan covered her nose and giggled, and was taken to take a bath by Gu Cheng.

I bought pork and goose eggs this morning.

I didn’t know Gu Cheng would come back today, so Liu Yinyin didn’t buy any seafood, otherwise she could have cooked some seafood noodles today.

Liu Yinyin went to the kitchen and soaked some rice noodles, mushrooms, and dried abalone.

Boil the fat to make lard, fry three poached eggs, and when the egg whites are slightly browned, serve.

Stir-fry the minced meat again. After it changes color, add minced ginger, minced garlic and seasonings and stir-fry until fragrant. Pour water and bring to a boil.

Add rice noodles, mushrooms and abalone slices in order and cook until done.

When taking the dish out of the pan, add a handful of green vegetables, sprinkle some chopped green onions, and cover it with the fried egg. It is perfect.

Liu Yinyin also prepared a plate of spicy dried radish.

This is what she made herself. The dried radish is spicy and numbing, and goes well with rice.

After being busy for so many days, Gu Cheng was really hungry.

I ate three bowls of rice noodles in one go, but still felt a little hungry.

Fortunately, there were still two steamed buns left over from lunch in the pot, so Gu Cheng was able to eat his fill.

Liu Yinyin felt distressed and amused: "Have you not eaten well recently?"

Gu Cheng was very satisfied with the meal: "There is food, but I am not full."

He has a big appetite to begin with, and training in the mountains is physically demanding, so naturally he eats even more.

Liu Yinyin asked him, "Are you going to the army tomorrow?"

According to the army's practice, there will be two days of rest after each mission.

The same is true this time.

Gu Cheng said: "Take a two-day break."

Liu Yinyin nodded and said, "That's perfect. I'll take a day off tomorrow too... I'll go to Auntie Wang's house early tomorrow morning and bring back a duck for you to replenish your body."

Aunt Wang had said before that she would give her a duck to eat, but Liu Yinyin hasn't gone to get it yet.

After thinking for a while, Gu Cheng said, "How about inviting a few people to our house for dinner tomorrow? We just happened to hunt two wild boars in the mountains this time. I'll go get a few pounds of pork tomorrow morning."

I should have invited people to my house for a warm meal a long time ago, but Gu Cheng has been very busy recently and has one task after another.

I finally have time tomorrow, so I might as well get this done early.

Liu Yinyin readily agreed: "Then I'll buy more dishes."

Gu Cheng can handle the pork, and we also have duck, so there is no shortage of vegetables at home.

She just needs to buy a few more seafood tomorrow.

Gu Cheng added: "Tomorrow I will invite my elder brother and second brother to come over for dinner."

Gu Cheng was away during the last Dragon Boat Festival. After being on the island for so long, he still hasn't had a meal with Brother Liu.

Liu Yinyin thought of the package the Liu family had sent her: "Mom sent clothes to my eldest and second brothers. I'll give them to them tomorrow."

Also, the Liu family sent her so many dried vegetables, especially Huang Xiaoyue.

In two days, Liu Yinyin will also have to prepare some dried seafood and send it to them.

There’s no need to buy any. We have plenty of dried seafood at home.

Except for Brother Liu, everyone else...

Liu Yinyin didn’t know many people. The ones she knew included Zheng Qiangwei’s family, Ma Guilan’s family, Yu Xiaoxiu’s family, and Xiao He.

I don’t know anything else.

Xu Zhenzhen didn't plan to treat him either, as Gu Cheng was not familiar with her man.
