Chapter 102 Chapter 102 The Northwest Style of Braised Mushrooms with Goat Milk...
Su Tianli, Cheng Yu and Wang Xuezhao stood still.
After a while, Fu Yan and He Wanqian came running over from a distance.
Fu Yan looked at Su Tianli, hesitant to speak;
He Wanqian trotted a few steps forward and stood in front of Fu Yan with her arms outstretched, as if she was afraid that Su Tianli would snatch her husband away...
Cheng Yu stepped forward and stood in front of Su Tianli, frowning and looking at He Wanqian as if he was looking at garbage.
Wan-qian Ho: …
She lowered her arms awkwardly.
Su Tianli tugged at Cheng Yu's sleeve, "Let's go, stay away from this unlucky thing."
As they spoke, Su Tianli and Wang Xuezhao held hands and walked towards the cafeteria.
Cheng Yushen agreed and obediently followed Su Tianli.
However, every two or three steps, Cheng Yu would turn around and look at Fu Yan and He Wanqian with a frown.
He seemed... really worried that these two unlucky things would get involved with him and Litchi.
Ever since the truth came out, He Wanqian felt so ashamed that she couldn't raise her head in front of Cheng Yu.
——She has always known the truth. She could hide it before, but now she really can’t play the ostrich anymore.
So He Wanqian didn't dare to really chase after him.
She could only keep blaming Fu Yan, "What should I do now?"
Fu Yan stared at Su Tianli's receding back, as if he was unaware.
He Wanqian said anxiously: "Fu Yan, I'm talking to you!"
"Are you listening at all?"
"My father's back injury has relapsed... I don't know what to do!"
"You are so good, you only think about Su Tianli!"
"Do you know that you are my husband? Can you have some sense of boundaries and keep a distance from other women?" He Wanqian said jealously and angrily.
Fu Yan glanced at He Wanqian coldly, then turned around and strode away in the opposite direction.
He Wanqian was stunned and became anxious.
She trotted after him, "Fu Yan, what are you doing?"
"Are you planning to just give up on my dad?"
"Fu Yan! Say something..."
"We are in a strange place here, and dad is sick...what should we do?"
"Why are you like this? Fu Yan! Do you know that you are using cold violence against me?" He Wanqian said angrily.
Fu Yan stood still and looked at He Wanqian coldly, "You are your father's biological daughter. Even you don't know what to do. How can you count on me, an outsider?"
He Wanqian exploded, "How can you be an outsider?"
"You are my husband! We are already married... We have obtained a formal marriage certificate!"
"You are still my father's apprentice! He has been teaching you for five whole years!"
"Fu Yan, are you such a bastard?"
"When our family was doing well, you followed suit and enjoyed the good life!"
"Now my father is away from home and is sick again, and you just want to leave him alone?"
"You ungrateful bastard! Are you still a man?" He Wanqian stomped her feet in anger.
Fu Yan looked at He Wanqian coldly, "First of all, I have no intention of marrying you. It was you who kept pestering me and forced me to get the marriage certificate."
"Secondly, I didn't follow your father to enjoy the best of life. Yes, I was an apprentice under your father for five years... but you actually think this is a gift from you and your father to me? He Wanqian, don't you know that your father's apprentices almost hate him to death! This includes me!"
"Finally, I am a stranger here. I have no money and I don't know anyone here. Your father's back injury has relapsed and he has no money. The only solution I can think of is to ask Lizhi for help... Lizhi is my only connection here."
At this point, Fu Yan looked at the stunned He Wanqian and continued to say word by word: "He Wanqian, now it is you who rejected my proposal. It is you who disagreed to ask Lizhi for help..."
"Then what else can I do?"
"Take care of your own problems, and don't ask me what to do anymore!"
Fu Yan strode away.
He Wanqian was stunned.
She stared blankly at Fu Yan walking away quickly, and finally -
A feeling of uncertainty and confusion arose in my heart.
She began to hate herself. She knew that everyone was unfamiliar with the place, her father's back injury had relapsed, and they had no connections and no money...
so?
Why did she quarrel with Fu Yan?
And why did she stop Fu Yan from rescuing Su Tianli?
But most importantly,
——How could Fu Yan abandon her at this critical moment?
She just said a few more words!
So, He Wanqian caught up with Fu Yan and said anxiously: "Fu Yan! What do you mean! I, I'm just a little anxious, why are you mad at me?"
"We are husband and wife!"
“Shouldn’t a couple stick together?”
Upon hearing this, Fu Yan got angry.
He stopped, turned his head and looked at He Wanqian coldly, "Ask yourself with your conscience——"
"Did I ask you to marry me?"
"He Wanqian, you forced this marriage!"
After hearing this, He Wanqian also got angry, "So you don't want to marry me from the beginning to the end?"
Fu Yan laughed, "How many times do you want me to say it?"
"He Wanqian, I don't want to marry you! You forced me to do this!"
"You haven't forgotten, have you? The reason I was willing to accompany you and your father to the Northwest was because you said that as long as I came, you would be willing to talk to me about divorce."
"What? Do you think I'm here now to improve our relationship?" Fu Yan looked at He Wanqian sarcastically.
He Wanqian's face suddenly turned red.
but,
She was so angry.
He Wanqian glared at Fu Yan, clenched her fists, and growled angrily: "Fu Yan, I also ask you to check your conscience and talk to me again!"
"You said you were forced to marry me? Well, let me ask you, five years ago when you were going to work in the countryside, how did you come to ask me for help?"
Fu Yan's face turned pale.
Then his face turned red in an instant!
He Wanqian sensed that Fu Yan wanted to explain.
She stopped him, "Maybe you want to say that it was because I gave you a hint at that time, saying that as long as you go to my dad, my dad will find a way to let you stay in the city."
"But Fu Yan, I just hinted at you..."
"I didn't tie you up with a rope to prevent you from going to the countryside."
"You took two bottles of wine and two packs of cigarettes and voluntarily went to my house to talk to my dad."
"You can't deny this, right?" He Wanqian asked.
Fu Yan said nothing.
Yes, he really couldn't refute this.
He Wanqian continued to ask: "Then I want to ask... Fu Yan, why should my father help you?"
Fu Yan opened his mouth wide.
He Wanqian said word by word: "There are so many people who don't want to go to the countryside to join the production team, why should my father help you?"
"Go ahead and tell me! Don't you know the answer? Or do you not want to tell me?"
Fu Yan closed his eyes and said, "Stop talking!"
He Wanqian sneered, "Why can't I say it?"
"Now you are here to bring up the past, saying that we got married... I forced you to do it!"
"Then I'll explain it clearly now!"
"Since you still have shame and are unwilling to say——"
"Then let me tell you!"
After a pause, He Wanqian slowly said: "Because you took advantage of the fact that I like you!"
"I went to beg my father to find a way to keep you."
"My father helped me and found a way to let you stay. Just like that, you became his apprentice, got a job, and got a stable job. Because of this, you don't need to go to the countryside anymore."
Fu Yan clenched his teeth.
He Wanqian said: "Fu Yan, five years ago you could have chosen to be my boyfriend in order to stay in the city."
"We've been together for five years..."
"Then they got married naturally. Is that something strange?"
Seeing Fu Yan seemed to be hesitant to speak,
He Wanqian interrupted him again and said:
"Yes, I did play a trick at that time - I said that if you want to get a welfare house in the factory, you must get married."
"But this is also true!"
"Your relationship with your family is strained, and you don't like living in the company dormitory all the time."
"The only way to improve the conditions of the residents is to get married."
"Besides, you are an ordinary worker. You can't get a house even if you get married! You have to rely on me, a second-level clerk with a professional title, to get a one-bedroom wedding house!"
He Wanqian smiled and continued:
"Fu Yan, your mother even asked someone to calculate the date for us to get the marriage certificate. She said that if we get the marriage certificate on that day, it will bring good luck to your father!"
"I didn't even ask you for a dowry!"
"And from the time we decided to get married, to your mom calculating the date, to us registering and getting the marriage certificate... it took more than three months in total!"
"During these three months, you didn't object at all!"
"How come in the end, it seems like I was the one who forced you to get the marriage certificate?"
So far——
Fu Yan looked ashen!
He Wanqian sneered, "Fu Yan, you took advantage of me——"
"Don't rush to deny it... Yes, there has indeed been no sexual intercourse between you and me. From a physical point of view, we are indeed innocent."
"But can you deny the support and help I and my family have given you over the past five years? How did you get a formal job? You get 45 yuan a month, plus benefits from your company during the holidays, and I will secretly give you benefits from my company... Fu Yan, you are now shouting and making a fuss about divorcing me. Maybe you can't think back and think about the fact that you took the things I gave you without mercy!"
"And the money I've spent on you over the years... your clothes, shoes and socks all year round, the bicycles and watches I gave you as gifts during the holidays, and the personal connections in your family, which one of them wasn't spent by me?"
"Doesn't this count as you taking advantage of me?"
Fu Yan was speechless.
He Wanqian sighed, "Fu Yan, it's because of me that you stayed in the city, and it's also because of me that you got a bright future. In the past five years, you accepted all my gifts without refusing them..."
"Then after Su Tianli returned to the city, you told me that you wanted a divorce?"
"Fu Yan, you can't have it all!"
Fu Yan opened his mouth.
He Wanqian's words left him with no room for argument.
because--
She said...
Basically true.
After a long while, Fu Yan begged her, "Wanxi, then I...I will return all the money to you, okay?
"Then we get divorced," he asked hopefully.
He Wanqian smiled, "Then do you know how much you owe me? And when can you pay me back?"
Fu Yan: ...
He said with difficulty: "I have a deposit of 100 yuan in Guangzhou. I will give it all to you."
"I know this is far from enough. How about this? You tell me... No matter how much money you tell me, I will find a way to borrow it or write you an IOU... Don't worry, I will definitely pay you back!"
Then Fu Yan tried to persuade He Wanqian again, "Wanqian, you have a good image, a good family background, and you have money in your hands. There will be many young men who want to pursue you!"
He Wanqian was lost in thought for a while, and then she said quietly, "If money can be calculated clearly, then what about my youth?"
"Fu Yan, I've been with you since I was eighteen... I'm already twenty-four years old now! Six years have passed..."
"Other young women are already having their second child at the age of 24!"
"But what about you? You want me, at the age of 24, to become a divorced woman? A second-married woman?"
"Think about it yourself. Which truly young and promising man would marry a woman who has been dating another man for six years and is still paying for him?"
"If it's you, are you willing?" He Wanqian asked.
Fu Yan suddenly felt hopeless.
He closed his eyes and was in a daze for a long, long time before he opened his eyes and looked at He Wanqian, "So you don't want to divorce me at all."
He Wanqian turned her head away.
Yes, she doesn't want a divorce.
Six years...
Add to that the two-year affair and three-year entanglement in the previous life...
The emotional grievances between her and Fu Yan have lasted for more than ten years!
The sunk costs are too high.
In fact, He Wanqian herself always feels a sense of powerlessness and desolation.
——She was obsessed with making money everywhere, hoping that the reform and opening-up policies would come, and that money would become the initial capital for her business!
In this life, there is no Su Tianli standing in front of Fu Yan. Fu Yan himself has business experience in his previous life, so he will definitely soar to success!
——But Fu Yan was thinking about how to get rid of her even in his dreams!
so! ! !
She treats a person so unreservedly and wholeheartedly.
What he got was his condemnation and disgust...
It's hard to love.
He Wanqian really had no other choice.
But she didn't want to divorce.
She didn't want Su Tianli to laugh at her.
I don’t want my years of persistence to become a joke.
Fu Yan didn't get a reply from He Wanqian for a long time.
But he had already gotten the answer from He Wanqian's silence.
Fu Yan was also silent.
After a moment, Fu Yan turned and left.
He Wanqian asked anxiously: "Hey Fu Yan! Where are you going?"
Fu Yan said coldly: "Go take care of your dad."
He Wanqian asked again: "What should I do with my dad now? Should he stay in the hospital here? But we don't have any money..."
"Or should we hurry back to Guangzhou? But can my dad still handle it?"
"I heard that it will snow heavily in a few days, and the city and roads may be closed by then!"
"Then what should we do?" He Wanqian asked anxiously.
Fu Yan said expressionlessly: "He Jingdong is your father. How to deal with him is something you should consider."
He Wanqian got angry when she heard this!
——Yes, He Jingdong is her father! But Fu Yan is also He Jingdong's son-in-law! Is there anyone who shirks responsibility like this?
Could it be that all the truths I just explained to him were lost in the dog's stomach?
Fu Yan said coldly: "I will not make any decisive decisions for you and your immediate family."
"No matter what happens to me or my immediate family in the future, you will not be the one making any decisions."
After saying that, he walked away.
He Wanqian looked at Fu Yan's back and bit her lower lip in grievance.
After much thought, she was at a loss as to what to do, and finally decided to go find Su Tianli.
At this moment, Su Tianli was eating in the cafeteria with Cheng Yu and Wang Xuezhao!
Wang Xuezhao is a big celebrity in Satellite City - what vegetables the Satellite City staff canteen can supply to employees every day depends on what vegetables Farm 109 delivers the day before.
Su Tianli is also very popular in Satellite City.
Therefore, the chef in the cafeteria made a dish of braised white mushrooms with goat's milk according to Wang Xuezhao's instructions.
White mushrooms are indeed a specialty of the Northwest.
This thing is a byproduct of the monsoon river that appears during the summer rainy season.
It looks like a straw mushroom, each one is round, but the color of the straw mushroom is light gray with brown on the pointed cap;
The color of the white fungus is pure snow white.
To be honest, the taste of white mushrooms is not very good...
Unlike other mushrooms, it is naturally sweet.
It has no taste.
Even horses, sheep and cattle don't like to eat it.
The educated youths in Farm 109 were short of food and clothing when the farm was first built.
Naturally, I won’t dislike white fungi.
Not tasty?
That doesn’t matter!
As long as it fills my stomach.
But then living conditions got better.
The educated youth also felt that
Oh, how can this white mushroom not be delicious?
If it doesn't taste good,
That must be the wrong cooking method!
If you find the right cooking method, it will definitely taste good.
In this way, the educated youth of Farm 109 studied tirelessly for a long time and finally found a suitable cooking method.
The method is also very simple -
Cut the blanched bacon or cured meat into thin slices. You don’t need too much. Set aside.
Cut the potatoes into pieces, steam them, sprinkle some salt on them and mash them into a paste. You don’t need too much.
Soak the dried white mushrooms first, squeeze out the water, cut into thin slices and set aside;
Pour two pounds of goat milk into a cold pot and cook over low heat, then add slices of ginger and garlic to remove the fishy smell. After the goat milk boils, add salt and sugar to season, then add mashed potatoes and stir;
After the mashed potato milk soup is boiled, add the white mushroom slices cut into thin slices.
When the white mushroom slices in the pot are boiled, add bacon slices or cured meat slices, and when it boils, sprinkle wolfberry and green onion pieces for color.
This dish of braised white mushrooms with goat's milk is ready.
At this moment, Cheng Yu looked at the thick milky white soup in the casserole in front of him with surprise, feeling both surprised and hesitant.
He really couldn't imagine what dishes cooked with goat's milk would taste like.
Su Tianli took action and added three bowls of soup with mushrooms and meat slices, and placed a bowl in front of each person.
Cheng Yu tasted it carefully, and then his eyes widened!
How to say it,
When I took my first sip of the soup, it felt a little weird.
In fact, Guangzhou people also love to make soup.
Sour tomato soup,
Bitter bitter melon, soybean and pork ribs soup,
Cheng Yu also drank it in the canteen of the machinery factory.
Sweet soup. Later, after he moved into Lizhi's house, Lizhi would ask grandma to stew some soups, such as apple and fig stewed with lean meat, pear and white fungus stewed with lean meat... Such soups are sweet, refreshing and delicious.
However, the taste of white mushrooms braised in goat milk is not the kind with fruity aroma and refreshing sweetness.
It has a strong taste. The goat milk has been deodorized with ginger and garlic, and the smoky flavor of the bacon slices is very strong, which can cover the mutton smell in the goat milk...
The tasteless white mushroom slices have absorbed the sweetness of goat milk and the salty freshness of bacon.
So delicious!
Cheng Yu looked at Su Tianli and found that she had finished the whole soup and had already started to add a second bowl.
He also quickly picked up the bowl and drank the unique-flavored soup.
Su Tianli taught him again, "Break the pancake into pieces and soak it in the soup... soak it for a while before eating! By then, the broken pancakes will be soft on the outside and chewy on the inside. They will also absorb the flavor of the soup and taste even better."
Cheng Yu quickly followed Su Tianli's example, broke the pancake into pieces and dipped it in the soup, and soon he was eating the pancake soaked in goat milk soup.
When He Wanqian found the cafeteria,
Seeing Su Tianli and Cheng Yu eating delicious food...
She exploded instantly!
"Su Tianli! We have no food to eat, but you are here eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks!" He Wanqian said angrily.
Su Tianli glanced at He Wanqian indifferently and said, "I bought it with my own money. If you want to eat it, you should also buy it with your own money!"
He Wanqian said angrily: "Where do we have the money? My father gave you all the money he had!"
Hearing this, Su Tianli glanced at Cheng Yu.
As soon as she arrived, she told Cheng Yu that she had extorted two thousand yuan from He Jingdong, and she would give the money to him after she returned.
Cheng Na initially said that he didn't want He Jingdong's money...
After all, he didn't expect He Jingdong to be willing to pay so much money.
Then, he was scolded by Su Tianli:
"You have places to spend money!"
"Now think about our home on Shaou Street... We had to store the things we used for the night market, the various spare parts you collected from recycling, and we also had to leave space for you to build that little car. You also built a new kiln..."
“There’s simply not enough room!”
"So you have to take the money He Jingdong gives you. After we go back, we'll see if there's a way to buy another piece of land."
"If we can buy a piece of land, even if it's just - we can only find a way to build a shed to store those things... then we won't have to worry about being homeless or being evicted!"
Cheng Yu also had his own thoughts:
His entire fortune now is only about 800 yuan, plus the 2,000 yuan that Lizhi extorted from He Jingdong, he can only make up 3,000 yuan at most.
I want to buy a piece of land with 3,000 yuan...
It's difficult.
But Lizhi has more money.
If Lizhi is willing to buy land with him, then the relationship between him and Lizhi... at least has a material bond.
Of course Cheng Yu was happy to do so.
So Cheng Yu nodded obediently.
At this time, He Wanqian was still screaming angrily, "Su Tianli, you are using my dad's money to eat well here, don't you feel guilty?"
As she said this, she, who was already extremely hungry, reached out her hand to grab the sesame cake on the table.
Su Tianli quickly put the sesame cake over to Cheng Yu.
So He Wanqian swung her claw down, but not only did she miss, her fingers also hit the wooden table heavily, making a dull thud.
He Wanqian gritted her teeth in pain, "Su Tianli! You——"
She looked at Su Tianli angrily.
Cheng Yu spoke up, "Get out of here quickly, or we'll shout that someone is stealing the pancakes."
Wan-qian Ho: …
Of course she was unwilling to accept this.
Why do Su Tianli and Cheng Yu get all the benefits?
But, she suddenly realized a more important problem!
"Cheng Yu! Do you still have money? Give me five hundred!" He Wanqian said righteously.
Cheng Yu, "…Why? Because you are dumber than others?"
He Wanqian was furious, "You!!!"
She took a deep breath, "Cheng Yu, Dad's back injury has recurred and he can't stand up straight! His condition is very serious now! But I have no money, I, I don't know what to do..."
After saying that, He Wanqian glanced at Su Tianli, and then continued to say to Cheng Yu: "Cheng Yu, find a way to send Dad to the hospital."
Cheng Yu was in a stable mood, and even ate a piece of pancake soaked in the delicious bacon and goat milk soup.
Then he said coldly: "...get out."
He Wanqian was stunned.
After a while, she came back to her senses and said angrily: "Cheng Yu, what do you mean? He is also your father! How can you be so cruel?"
Cheng Yu, "What evidence do you have that he is my father?"
He Wanqian was anxious, "Didn't everyone talk about it yesterday?"
Cheng Yu looked at He Wanqian as if she were a fool. "Does he dare to turn himself in to the police station? How can he guarantee that only you and I were born in the Municipal People's Hospital that day? Did he replace the child with another one?"
"Also, if he really went to the police station to turn himself in, I would still respect him as a man - after all, if he turned himself in, he would be arrested for abandonment, sentenced to prison, and lose his job title!"
"The question is—does he dare to go?"
"Since he doesn't dare, why does he want me, a grown man who has never eaten a single bite of his food or spent a single cent of his money, to be his son? Do you think you can suck my blood from me in the future?"
"He Wanqian, your father is so shameless and shameless!"
"You are really your father's offspring, just as shameless! Just as shameless!"
Cheng Yu started to curse without mercy.
He Wanqian's face turned blue and red.
She is really in a dilemma now.
So what should we do now?!
Su Tianli sat aside and saw He Wanqian's tears were not falling.
After thinking about it, she gave He Wanqian an idea:
"Hey He Wanqian, although Cheng Yu and your father have no legal relationship, your father and Aunt Xu... are legally married and bound by a legally recognized marriage certificate!"
"You leave your mother alone and ask Cheng Yu for help?"
"It's no use asking Cheng Yu for help! He's not familiar with this place..."
"Unless you come and beg me... But He Wanqian, will you really beg me?"
"Don't forget, it was you who caused me to come here."
"so--"
"Even if you kneel down and beg me, and kowtow 18 times... I won't care about you."
"If you don't believe it, why don't you try it?" Su Tianli said with a sarcastic smile.
After hearing what Su Tianli said, He Wanqian was stunned.
She slapped her forehead and wondered how she could have forgotten about Xu Jiaxi!
You know, Xu Jiaxi is not short of money.
After hearing Su Tianli's reminder and humiliating her,
Especially when Su Tianli talked about how she had bribed Su Youzi to change Su Tianli's application form for going to the countryside,
He Wanqian was both embarrassed and ashamed. She bit her lower lip and ran away quickly.
Su Tianli looked at He Wanqian's back as she fled in panic and sneered.
Wang Xuezhao gave Su Tianli a thumbs up and said, "Your trick is really powerful! If He Jingdong can trip Aunt Xu's legs, Aunt Xu will not be able to go to Guangzhou in the short term."
"At the same time, this also gives He Jingdong and Aunt Xu some time to spare. They can use this time to clarify whether it is a divorce or a widowhood marriage..."
"The most important thing is, if they get stuck, they won't bother you two!"
"At least you two can have a good New Year!" Wang Xuezhao said with a smile.
She wisely did not mention what happened next.
because--
If Lizhi and Cheng Yu each have their own ideals and want to pursue their own ideals,
So from now until next year's college entrance examination, this is the precious time that this young couple can spend together.
Wang Xuezhao raised the soup bowl in his hand and said to Su Tianli and Cheng Yu:
"After I finish this meal, I have to go to the 623rd Corps."
"Lizhi, you are my best friend... I wish you all the best!"
"Cheng Yu, I also wish your dream to come true!"
“Finally, I wish that we can all ride on the wings of our dreams and fly to the top!”
"Friends, let's drink the soup - we'll meet at the top someday!"
Su Tianli also smiled and raised the soup bowl in her hand, "Sister Xuezhao, let's meet at the top!"
Cheng Yu took a deep breath and raised the soup bowl high, "Sister Xuezhao, Litchi, we will... meet at the top!"
