Dr. Qiao nodded under Xiao Yuheng's watchful gaze, "Then I shall respectfully comply."
"What exactly are you doing here?"
Xiao Yuheng's dream of the two of them washing vegetables and chatting together was thus ruined.
"Of course there's good news. The hemostatic medicine my sister-in-law gave me last time has yielded results. The first batch was successfully developed yesterday. My mentor commended my sister-in-law, and this is the certificate of honor and the bonus from above."
Dr. Qiao took out something that looked like a certificate of merit from later times, along with an envelope. Judging by its thickness, it probably contained quite a lot of stuff.
"Am I eligible to freeload a meal now?"
Xiao Yuheng took the certificate. Although it only had a few simple words on it, he looked at it over and over again, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
"An'an, look."
Gu An'an glanced at it, her smile still lingering.
On the one hand, this thing can bring her a sense of security in this era, and on the other hand, it can indeed help more people who are working hard for this country.
I feel happy no matter how I think about it.
"It was developed so quickly?"
Dr. Qiao helped wash the vegetables. "Well, my mentor is an expert in this field. He has successfully developed a hemostatic drug, but the anti-inflammatory drug cannot be replicated 100%. We still need to work hard. However, I heard from my mentor that even if we can only replicate it 80% now, it will still be several times more effective than the anti-inflammatory drugs we used before."
"Very impressive."
Gu An'an sincerely praised her, even though she studied medicine, not pharmacy, and couldn't help in that area at all.
"Yes, my master is very powerful."
If it weren't for his master's irreplaceable position in pharmacology, he might have ended up suffering somewhere like everyone else.
Thinking about this, Dr. Qiao still felt sad.
After a brief explanation, Dr. Qiao, not wanting to burden others with her negative emotions, changed the subject. After washing the vegetables, she also took the opportunity to examine Xiao Yuheng's wound.
"You're recovering well. Let's see how things go in another month. If you're recovering well, you can start training again."
"good."
Although it had only been a little over half a month, Xiao Yuheng felt that his body was already stiff and he urgently needed to stretch his muscles and bones.
Gu An'an returned to her room and put the money away. Xiao Yuheng had already set up the pot. On one side was the chicken soup base that Gu An'an had made, and on the other side was the spicy broth that Gu An'an loved. The two flavors collided together, making it incredibly fragrant.
"This hot pot is really flavorful."
"This is the broth my wife makes herself; it's definitely not comparable to what you can get outside."
Xiao Yuheng bragged about his future wife, and he really won over Dr. Qiao's heart. If his future wife could cook so many delicious dishes, he would definitely obey her every word.
That's right, Dr. Qiao is actually a foodie.
A pure foodie.
The broth was fragrant, and Gu An'an had prepared an even more abundant dipping sauce. Unlike Xiao Yuheng, who had never eaten this before, Dr. Qiao completely forgot everything else after taking the first bite, with only one thought in his mind.
Eat, eat, eat!
"I wonder what delicious food Xiao Gu has prepared today."
On his way home, Commander Zhao was drawn by the rich aroma of food when he passed by the Xiao family's house, but the door was closed, so he couldn't just go over and ask for a free meal. He could only go home.
"What business is it of yours what other people eat! This is all the food we have at home, eat it or don't, it's up to you."
No one who works hard at cooking wants their food to be disliked, not even by their own husband.
"Honey, don't be so fierce. I didn't say I wouldn't eat."
It's just that I'm reminiscing about the fragrance I just smelled, and I miss it a lot.
"Judging from your tone, it's unfair to you to eat my cooking. Why don't you just not eat it?"
As they were talking, Aunt Zhang reached out to take Commander Zhao's bowl, but Commander Zhao was quick and took the bowl away and raised it, while also giving a slightly exaggerated performance of his eating skills.
"Honey, your cooking is delicious."
Aunt Zhang didn't really want to get angry with this stubborn guy. Seeing his attitude, she gave him a sharp look, but that was all.
However, she kept this in mind and went to see Gu An'an whenever she had free time.
"Xiao Gu, I heard from Lao Zhao that you're a great cook. Could you teach me?"
Gu An'an knew that her family must have done something wrong to eat so well every day, but she was unwilling to compromise on food, so she indulged herself.
But now that Aunt Zhang has come to ask for advice, she certainly won't keep anything to herself.
After finding out what Aunt Zhang wanted to learn, Gu An'an taught her with all her heart. As for how well she would turn out, that was none of her business.
"Wow, with so many seasonings, it's no wonder it tastes good."
Aunt Zhang certainly wouldn't want to eat like that every day, but it's okay to change things up for the family occasionally.
On Zhang Sao's first day of learning, the Zhao family had a simple barbecue for dinner. Even though it was a simple version with more vegetables than meat, it made Commander Zhao and his children keep shouting "Long live Mom!" and "Long live my wife!"
"Burp~ Barbecue is so delicious."
"Mom, when's the next barbecue?"
Aunt Zhang quietly touched her round belly and replied, "When? It's definitely not this month. You've already eaten all of this month's meat ration coupons."
Of course, she was exaggerating a bit. There were many people working in the Zhao family, so the hostages could still eat for a while.
"Ah! Why can't you come earlier next month?"
Aunt Zhang gently tapped her daughter's head, "Don't just stand there, hurry up and clean up and wash the dishes. Don't forget what you promised."
However, thanks to the food they had eaten, the Zhao family members were still quite motivated.
There was no way around it; they couldn't not work. After all, Zhang Sao controlled the family finances and the kitchen, and anyone else who wanted to improve their meals had to please Zhang Sao, the mistress of the house.
Seeing the changes in her family, especially her daughter who said she had to study hard and get into high school so she could eat a few more good meals and stay at home, was something Zhang Sao hadn't expected.
Because of this, Aunt Zhang visited the Xiao family even more frequently, learning how to make barbecue, then hot pot, and then all sorts of other dishes.
Although I can't do it every day, it's enough to keep those greedy people obedient.
In the dormitory.
"Can you guys help me see if this suits me?"
"This won't do. There's a patch on it. What would it look like if the girl saw it?"
"What about this one?"
"This won't do. You're already dark-skinned enough. If you wear this, I'm afraid girls won't be able to find you."
Xiao Liu wasn't angry when his comrades criticized him. He found another set of clothes, put them on, and then asked for everyone's opinions.
"This is alright, but it would be even cooler if you put this on too."
Looking at herself in the mirror, Xiao Liu asked doubtfully, "Are you sure this will work?"
