On the day they went to the island, Feng Jinhua took her children back to her parents' home and missed the best opportunity to gossip, so she didn't know that it was Lin Jingshu and Gu Chengze who brought Ruirui back.
Seeing that she was lying on the wall and refused to come down, Lin Jingshu looked a little helpless.
"Sister Feng, what are you doing?"
Seeing that she had discovered her, Feng Jinhua stopped hiding and walked out openly. Without answering her question, she asked, "Comrade Lin, do you know Aunt Kang?"
Lin Jingshu nodded and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
There was a gossipy gleam in the man's eyes. If he stayed here, he would inevitably be dragged along to talk about all sorts of things. It would be better to use this time to come up with a new drawing.
Before Feng Jinhua could utter the next sentence, Lin Jingshu had already closed the door.
The words were stuck in her throat, and she stamped her feet anxiously, complaining, "What kind of person is this? He left before I could finish my words."
Feng Jinhua couldn't keep anything secret. She rolled her eyes and said, "Just because she didn't know didn't mean others didn't know." She walked briskly to find someone to share the gossip with.
Lin Jingshu returned home and put away the gifts brought by Aunt Kang.
Malted milk, White Rabbit milk candy, canned yellow peaches, two bags of snacks and two pounds of pork.
Pork cannot be kept in this weather. I will cut half of it and stir-fry it, and then marinate and smoke the other half and hang it up to dry.
When Gu Chengze came back, his military uniform was covered in mud, which was obviously caused by the training ground.
Without Lin Jingshu saying anything, she carried the water dried in the yard to the bathroom to rinse herself.
Wearing a vest and shorts, rub the clothes in the basin clean.
After the clothes were dried in the sun, I walked into the house and saw snacks on the table. I thought they were bought by my wife.
I was just hungry, so I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth.
"I'm back. I was so busy with my drawings that I forgot the time. Aunt Kang happened to be here with Wenzhen and Ruirui as guests, so I'll be delayed for a while. Dinner can only be served after a while."
Gu Chengze: "Don't worry about me, your business is more important. The army has a canteen. Next time I will stop by the canteen to get food, and you don't have to cook every day."
Lin Jingshu agreed. The food in the cafeteria tasted pretty good. She was not picky about food. As long as it filled her stomach, it was good food.
The weather is getting hotter and cooking in the kitchen is becoming a difficult task.
Lin Jingshu couldn't agree more with what Gu Chengze said.
"Okay, then we'll eat in the cafeteria in the morning and at home in the afternoon."
The Lin family has the same habit: they eat lightly in the morning and at noon, and make a sumptuous dinner after a busy day.
Gu Chengze helped out while saying, "My comrades and I exchanged some food coupons and meat coupons. If you want to eat anything, go buy it."
As he said this, he took out a handful of colorful tickets from his pocket.
"Why so many?"
Gu Chengze: "Before, I couldn't use so many tickets for my own meals, so I gave them all away. Now that I'm married, I naturally have to exchange them back."
What he was embarrassed to say was that he did it on purpose, and he couldn't wait to announce it to the world after he got married.
Gu Chengze: "Aunt Kang, what's the matter with you?"
"They came to thank us and asked us to come to their house when we have time. I don't think this is a good idea. I'm thinking about inviting Aunt Kang to our house when we are free. Does this count as a violation of the rules?"
"Not really. Aunt Kang gets along well with the sisters-in-law in the family compound. It's common for them to visit each other."
Lin Jingshu was relieved. "That's fine. They brought a lot of things with them. I asked her to take them back, but she refused no matter what."
It turned out that it was brought by Aunt Kang.
"Wenzhen also invited me to go out for a stroll when I have time."
Gu Chengze remembered that this was Qi Wu's wife, who worked in Guangzhou Hospital and occasionally came back to visit Aunt Kang and her husband.
He was not familiar with Xu Wenzhen, but he was very familiar with Qi Wu. He had heard a lot of praise about Xu Wenzhen from Qi Wu, so he thought she was a good person.
"If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, I'll decline on your behalf."
Lin Jingshu served the food, wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I feel like I get along well with her. Don't worry, if this person is difficult to get along with, I definitely won't force myself to get close to her."
Gu Chengze felt relieved after hearing this, as long as she understood it.
The dish was not cooked yet, Gu Chengze noticed her movements and pushed her out.
"I'll do it, you go out and wait for me."
Before Lin Jingshu could react, he pushed her out and took off her apron.
Lin Jingshu: What happened?
Forget it, give him a chance to perform.
Lin Jingshu felt uncomfortable from sweating, so she took a quick shower. When she changed her clothes and sat down, Gu Chengze brought the meal to the table.
Gu Chengze made a tomato and egg dish. For him, this dish is the simplest.
After frying the eggs, set them aside. Stir-fry the tomatoes to make soup, add the eggs to the pan and stir-fry evenly. Sprinkle some chopped green onions on them before serving.
"How about trying it?"
This was the first time Gu Chengze cooked without any guidance. He tasted the food before serving it and it seemed pretty good. He wondered if it would suit his wife's taste.
Under his expectant gaze, Lin Jingshu picked up a piece of food with chopsticks, put it in her mouth, and chewed slowly.
"I think... not bad!"
Gu Chengze felt a pang in his heart when he heard the heavy breathing.
"Phew, I thought it wasn't to your taste. Eat more if you like it."
"You eat too."
The twice-cooked pork that Lin Jingshu picked for him was also delicious when paired with rice.
"By the way, should we treat your comrades to a meal?"
Gu Chengze mentioned this a few days ago. At that time, they were busy cleaning the house and had no time. Now that the cleaning is done, it is time to prepare for the dinner.
I just don’t know whether to make it myself or go to the cafeteria.
Gu Chengze thought for a moment and said, "Then let's do it the day after tomorrow. I'm on vacation now, so we won't cook at home. Let's go straight to the cafeteria."
The weather is so hot, if his wife gets heatstroke, he will be so distressed.
Lin Jingshu had the same idea. Just cooking lunch for two people was enough for her, not to mention more than a dozen people.
"Okay, do you need anything prepared in advance?"
"No need. The chef in the cafeteria makes it often and is familiar with the process. We don't have many people invited, just a few people we know. I'll go talk to the chef this afternoon."
After the meal, Lin Jingshu felt a little dizzy and yawned continuously.
Gu Chengze urged her to go upstairs to rest for a while and cleaned the table himself.
Lin Jingshu said with tears in her eyes, "Then I'll go up first. Come up early after you finish cleaning up."
He gets up early and goes to bed late every day, and exercises so much that his body is as strong as iron.
Compared to him, she was as weak as a chick. When the weather got cooler, she would put exercise on her agenda.
After Gu Chengze finished washing the dishes, he saw the clothes soaking in the basin, took them over and washed them.
With a "swish", Gu Chengze was dumbfounded looking at the torn hole in his hand.
No, what's going on?
Are such good clothes ruined by being rubbed like this?
