The other three children hadn’t had a full meal for a long time, and their mouths were watering when they saw the table full of delicious food.
Old Lady Qin gave each of them a big chicken leg to chew on, and they all ate with their mouths full of oil.
Qin Man and Er Gouzi, who were great contributors, also got a chicken leg.
Then the remaining three chicken legs were given one each to Qin Han, Qin Qing and Qin Jianye.
Qin Jianye wanted to give the chicken to the children, but was stopped by Old Lady Qin: "They are at home every day. They can eat chicken whenever they want. It's rare for you to come back, so you get to eat it today!"
"Yes, uncle, you eat it, we can just eat chicken, it's just as delicious!"
Several children echoed him sensibly. Qin Jianye smiled and said, "Okay, I won't be polite to you today."
The three rescued children had never eaten such delicious chicken legs before, which were much better than what they had at home.
The chicken melts in your mouth, with a salty and fragrant taste that makes you want to eat more.
When the boy thought about going back tomorrow, he suddenly felt that the chicken drumstick in his hand was no longer delicious. He looked up at Qin Jianye and asked in a low voice: "Can we go back the day after tomorrow?"
Qin Jianye looked at him puzzledly: "Why?"
The little boy blushed immediately: "Because the food here is so delicious, I want to stay and eat for another day!"
After hearing this, the other two girls also put down the chicken legs in their hands and looked at Qin Jianye expectantly.
Qin Jianye raised his eyebrows. They were really children. They just thought about eating. I wonder if their parents are going crazy with worry?
But looking at the expectant eyes of the children, he couldn't bear to refuse them outright, so he said, "I'll call and apply tomorrow morning. If I'm approved, I can stay for another day."
Mainly because he was thinking about these children. They had suffered a lot during this period and their bodies had not recovered yet. They would have to travel back home tomorrow and he was worried that they would not be able to bear it.
After hearing what Qin Jianye said, not only did the three children want to applaud happily, but even Tu Long and Gao Jin were exchanging glances with each other, and they looked like they were about to laugh out loud with joy.
"By the way, Mom, I want to take Er Gouzi to the army and let him be a military dog. What do you think?"
Hearing what their uncle said, the children who were eating immediately raised their heads and looked at their grandmother, fearing that she would agree.
Old Lady Qin said without hesitation: "Er Gouzi is the happy fruit of the family, especially Qing'er. She usually has no other company at home except Han'er. Since Er Gouzi came to our house, she is very happy every day.
If you really want to take Er Gouzi with you to the army, Qing Er will be heartbroken."
Qing'er also nodded repeatedly: "Uncle, I like Er Gouzi, can you please not take it away?"
Qin Jianye looked at the other children: "Do you think so too?"
Everyone nodded repeatedly; they were reluctant to part with Er Gouzi!
After finishing the food in the dog bowl, Er Gouzi barked at Qin Jianye: "Woof woof woof..."
"Humph, I don't want to join the army, you'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible!"
This time, Qin Jianye probably understood what Er Gouzi meant, as he could tell from his expression: "Er Gouzi, you want to stay at home, right?"
Er Gouzi nodded, then lay down at Qin Han's feet, looking like: "Don't even think about separating me from my master."
Looking at Er Gouzi's actions, Qin Jianye turned his gaze to the children: "Then let Er Gouzi stay at home with you!"
In fact, he didn't really want Ergouzi to go to the army, but he felt that Ergouzi was so skilled that it would be a pity if he didn't go to the army.
But everything should be based on the feelings of the family. There are so many military dogs in the army, and one more is not a big deal.
And with Ergouzi guarding the house, he can feel more at ease when he is outside.
At night, Old Lady Qin made a bed on the floor for Tu Long and the others in Lao Wu's room. Daya had already slept in the same room with Qin Xue, so Qin Jianye's room was empty.
The little boy slept in the same bed with Qin Man and several other boys, and the two girls slept in Qin Jiayi's room, and Qin Qiu was responsible for taking care of them.
The next morning, Qin Jianye went to Captain Liu's house. His was the only house in the entire village that had a telephone installed, and the money was paid by the commune.
He called the military district's family compound directly and expressed the children's ideas to several old leaders.
We also got their consent. As long as the child is found, it will be fine. Since the child wants to stay for one more day, then let him stay for one more day.
On the phone, they also expressed their gratitude to Qin Jianye and invited him and his comrades to their home for dinner after bringing the children back.
Qin Jianye declined politely. This was his mission and it was what he should do.
The children and Tu Long were very excited to see that they could stay.
There were many people having breakfast today, so Old Mrs. Qin and several of her daughters-in-law were busy in the kitchen early in the morning.
Today's breakfast is also very rich, with chicken porridge, wraps, steamed cakes, and salted eggs.
For ordinary people, this breakfast is equivalent to the Chinese New Year.
"Auntie, your salted eggs are so delicious. The yolk is oily and it's a double yolk. The egg white is not very salty either. It's perfect to eat with porridge!" It was the first time that Tu Long ate such delicious salted eggs. The whole salted egg yolk and the extra oil were secreted into the porridge. It was so salty and fragrant in one bite.
Others also praised the food, wondering why the food at the battalion commander's house was so delicious. They only regretted that they were not from Lao Qin's family, otherwise they would be so happy.
After all, isn't it just for a bite to eat that people live and work hard for?
Old Lady Qin said with a smile: "I pickled salted eggs with loess. If you think they taste good, eat a few more!"
There are too many pheasant eggs at home. In addition to the dozens of pheasants at home laying an egg every day, the old immortal also sends eggs to the Qin family every now and then.
Even if each person in the family eats one egg every day, even if 20 eggs are digested in a day, it still cannot be finished.
Occasionally, she would ask her eldest son to send some eggs to her sister's house. As the weather was getting warmer, she was afraid that the remaining eggs would go bad if kept for too long, so she pickled them into salted eggs in advance.
It can be eaten with porridge, and today is the first time she cooked it.
So far, the pickling is quite successful.
"Auntie, can I discuss something with you?" Tu Long asked a little embarrassedly.
Old Lady Qin signaled him to speak frankly. Tu Long knew that if he was reserved at this time, he would regret it when he returned.
So he said everything he wanted to say in one breath: "Auntie, I especially like the meat sauce and dried sweet potatoes you made. The salted eggs are also good. I wonder if you have any more. I want to buy some to take back to the army to eat!"
After hearing what Tu Long said, Gao Jin and the others immediately regretted it. They were so focused on eating that this kid got there first.
Old Lady Qin didn't know what was going on. She immediately said, "I like to prepare some food at home when I have nothing to do. If you like it, I will send some for you to eat in the army!"
There is never a shortage of dried sweet potatoes at home. Every time the children have almost finished eating, she will make some more.
