Chapter 328 Coconut Chicken

Sure enough, when she was free, Zheng Qiangwei came to complain to Liu Yinyin: "My mother-in-law said she was coming to the island to see me..."

After learning that she was pregnant yesterday, Yang Yiming was surprised and then ecstatic.

Then, he called the two elders that night and told them that Zheng Qiangwei was pregnant.

But after hearing the news, Zheng Qiangwei's mother-in-law immediately said she would take a leave to come to the island to see her.

Zheng Qiangwei was very happy when she was pregnant, but when she heard that her mother-in-law was coming, her joy disappeared in an instant.

Liu Yinyin didn't know what to say, and she didn't know whether Zheng Qiangwei had any conflicts with her in-laws. She just said, "Your mother-in-law also cares about you."

Zheng Qiangwei opened her mouth, wanting to say that her mother-in-law was only concerned about the baby in her belly.

The words came to his lips but he swallowed them back and changed the subject: "My mother-in-law is coming, she will definitely persuade me to quit my job..."

Zheng Qiangwei didn't blame her mother-in-law, it's just that her mother-in-law was too controlling.

Everyone at home has to listen to her in everything. If it wasn't her idea, Zheng Qiangwei would not have quit her job in the capital.

Came to the island with the army.

now......

Her mother-in-law said on the phone yesterday that she hoped Zheng Qiangwei would quit her job and focus on taking care of the baby.

It’s best to go back to the capital to give birth.

Zheng Qianwei was naturally unwilling, but fortunately this time Yang Yiming agreed with her and did not want her to return to the capital.

So, Grandma Zheng Qiangwei said she wanted to come to the island to see them.

Liu Yinyin didn't know what to say this time. After all, it was someone else's family affair.

Somehow, the topic turned to Liu Yinyin's plan to sell hens.

When she heard that she wanted to sell the hens, Zheng Qiangwei hurriedly said, "Sell the hens to me."

She was worried about not having enough eggs to eat, and it was too late to buy chicks to raise now.

Liu Yinyin: "...You want to raise chickens?"

Zheng Qiangwei is a girl from the city, so she probably doesn't know how to raise chickens.

Liu Yinyin never thought of selling the hens to her.

I don't know what she was thinking of, but Zheng Qiangwei said with certainty that she wanted to buy a hen.

It doesn't matter who she sells it to. Since she insists on buying it, Liu Yinyin will not refuse to sell it.

Zheng Qiangwei didn't buy too many hens, just two hens were enough to lay eggs.

The supply and marketing cooperative has coconuts for sale today.

After get off work, Liu Yinyin took two coconuts home.

One coconut was for Gu Yanyan to drink juice, and the other coconut...

Liu Yinyin suddenly had an idea and wanted to stew a coconut chicken.

It just so happened that there was an extra hen at home, so I just ate it.

After lunch, Mrs. Liu came to her and asked her if she wanted to go to the beach today.

Liu Yinyin thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, we have vegetables at home today, so I won't go fishing in the sea."

It's best not to let others know that there is a shipwreck on the seabed.

Liu Yinyin decided to go fishing less often during this period of time.

If others found out that she had found something on the seabed, they might also take the risk.

It would be bad if this secret were discovered.

She was frightened last time, and Mrs. Liu didn't want her to go to the beach, so she said, "Okay, if I dig up a lot of seafood later, I'll send some over to you."

Mrs. Liu has become addicted to going there. She has nothing to do, so she goes there every afternoon.

Go to the beach to dig some seafood and save some money on groceries.

It rained heavily at night.

The next day, at dawn, Gu Chenggong returned.

Liu Yinyin happened to not have to go to work, so she arranged for the coconut chicken.

I killed a pheasant in the morning and stewed it in a casserole for the whole morning.

Coconut water and coconut meat are used to stew chicken.

Add some ginger, red dates and wolfberries.

When eating, add a bowl of sauce to dip it in, it tastes really good.

Gu Cheng came back and slept for the whole morning, then got up at noon and went straight to eat.

Liu Yinyin scooped him a bowl of coconut chicken: "It's a rare opportunity to kill a chicken, you should eat more to replenish your body..."

At that time, people rarely had the chance to eat chicken.

The supply and marketing cooperative supplies pork once a week, and chicken is only supplied during festivals, and in small quantities.

But after being busy outside for two days, I slept for the whole morning.

Gu Cheng had fully recovered by now. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'm going to Dayanzi Island this afternoon and will be back tomorrow."

Liu Yinyin was stunned for a moment: "...Where are you going again?"

Gu Cheng said frankly: "Take people to the island to pick bird's nests. The troops don't have much food to store now. We need to exchange more food for storage during the summer and autumn harvests."

The climate on the island is changeable. If there is bad weather, the supply ship will not be able to enter.

With so many troops, we have to store some supplies and leave a way out.

Liu Yinyin was surprised and said, "...you have to buy it with your own money."

She had always believed that the troops' supplies were supplied by higher-ups.

Gu Cheng nodded: "There will be subsidies from above, but it is not enough. We have to find ways to replace some things ourselves."

If you only rely on subsidies from above, you will become passive when you encounter difficulties. "

Liu Yinyin said "Oh" and said thoughtfully: "So...you are going to pick bird's nests in exchange for food?"

Gu Cheng explained: "Yes, the troops are short of funds."

Otherwise, I wouldn't have come up with this idea.

Liu Yinyin paused, hesitated for a moment, and said to him, "When you come back, I'll tell you something."

After much thought, Liu Yinyin decided to tell Gu Cheng about the gold found in the shipwreck.

No matter what, the troops risked their lives to defend their country.

Since they need it, it is only right that gold be given to the troops.

Gu Cheng asked curiously, "What is it that you can't tell me now?"

It rained heavily last night, so today is not suitable for going to the sea.

Liu Yinyin shook her head slightly: "Let's talk about it when you come back. Don't worry, it's a good thing."

Afraid that Gu Cheng would ask more questions, Liu Yinyin changed the subject and said, "We have some eggs at home. You can bring some to Aunt Zhou and the others."

Gu Cheng was going to do some serious business, so Liu Yinyin didn't go with him.

After dinner, she went back to the kitchen and packed twenty-eight eggs and ten pounds of flour.

We now have several laying hens at home. With the ones we bought and the ones Liu Yinyin smuggled out of the system, we can lay several eggs a day.

It’s enough for our own consumption, and we can even give some away to others from time to time.

Gu Cheng picked up his things and left.

It was drizzling outside, so Liu Yinyin didn't go out.

I found a piece of cotton cloth and stayed at home to make two new clothes for Gu Yanyan.

In the afternoon, the rain finally stopped, and Gu Yanyan couldn't wait to run out to play with his friends.

Liu Yinyin ignored him. When it was time for dinner, the little guy would come back by himself.

However, after Liu Yinyin finished making two sets of clothes, she looked at the time and it was almost half past five.

At this time of day in the past, Gu Yanyan would have returned long ago, but I don’t know what happened today and he hasn’t returned yet.

Fearing that something might have happened, Liu Yinyin went out to look for someone.

When she arrived at the playground, Liu Yinyin didn't see anyone.
