Qi Mengmeng sighed. It seemed that she had adapted to Gu Guizhi's life at home.
She let out a long breath, stretched, and encouraged herself to find something to do, otherwise she would always feel awkward.
She took out the sweater she had knitted for Qi Zhijun. This was the most urgent matter now.
When it was time for dinner, Qi Mengmeng was not in a hurry to cook. She didn't put away the needle and thread until it got dark. She stood up and rubbed her waist.
After a day of hard work today, the sweater has taken shape and will probably be finished tomorrow.
Gu Guizhi was not at home, and Qi Mengmeng didn't want to cook complicated meals, so she took out a lunch box and two steamed buns from the space, and decided to eat the food she packed from the Beijing Restaurant tonight.
She opened the lunch box and took a look. There were stewed pork ribs inside. She nodded with satisfaction and put them in the pot. She then took out a bunch of grapes from the space, washed them, and ate them while waiting for the rice to cook.
After finishing a bunch of grapes and preparing the meal, she took out the lunch box and sat in the kitchen to eat.
The ribs were a little hot, so she took out a bottle of happy water, drank a big gulp, then burped and felt much better instantly.
Qi Mengmeng was very satisfied with the meal, eating spare ribs, drinking happy water and taking a bite of steamed bun occasionally.
She washed the lunch box, her hands and face, then sat at the table and started writing the questions that Grandpa Jiang had given her.
Although there are still two years before the college entrance examination, Qi Mengmeng has a poor foundation and must start working hard in advance.
When Qi Zhijun came, Qi Mengmeng had just put away the questions and was about to go to bed.
She went to open the door, her face full of surprise, "Dad, why are you here?"
Qi Zhijun: "I heard that Gu Guizhi was out on a mission, and I was afraid that you might be afraid to live alone, so I came to see you. How about you come and live with me?"
"No, I'm fine living alone." Qi Mengmeng didn't want to live in someone else's house.
Qi Zhijun had dinner at the army today. When he came back in the evening, he heard that Gu Guizhi had gone out on a mission. He didn't even go home, but came to see Qi Mengmeng.
"If you don't want to cook, just go home for dinner." Qi Zhijun really felt sorry for Qi Mengmeng and was afraid that she would not be able to adapt.
"I'm fine at home, don't worry." Qi Mengmeng had been busy all day and was in a much better mood. She planned to do more work while Gu Guizhi was not at home, so she didn't want to go anywhere.
Qi Zhijun wanted to say something, but Qi Mengmeng asked him to go into the house and try on the sweater.
Although the sleeves of the sweater had not been knitted yet, Qi Zhijun was still very happy. Of course he had a sweater to wear, which was knitted for him by Zheng Meili, but he did not expect that Qi Mengmeng would actually think of knitting a sweater for him.
Qi Zhijun touched it and found it was soft, so the price must be expensive.
"Mengmeng, do you have any money?"
Qi Mengmeng found it a little funny. Why did Qi Zhijun always feel that he had no money?
"Dad, don't worry, I have money. My mom gave me all the money in the house."
Qi Zhijun nodded, then lowered his voice: "I still have some things in my hand, which were exchanged for the things my father gave me before. I will give them to you in a few days."
What? Qi Zhijun still has the things that Grandpa Qi gave him? How did he keep them after fighting for so many years?
Qi Zhijun understood what Qi Mengmeng meant from her expression. He looked at Qi Mengmeng with amusement and said, "This is something your grandpa gave me before. I exchanged it for something else."
oh!
Now Qi Mengmeng understood. It was probably bought later. She wondered how Qi Zhijun managed to keep those things in such a chaotic time.
Qi Zhijun didn't explain, he just said he would go back and get the things, and Qi Mengmeng understood.
Seeing that the lights were about to be turned off, Qi Zhijun did not stay any longer. He asked Qi Mengmeng to close the doors and windows, and then he left.
Qi Mengmeng locked the door, closed the window, took out a facial mask from the space and applied it on herself, then went to sleep after applying the mask.
The next day's breakfast was also simple, bread, milk, and sausage. Simple and nutritious.
After breakfast, she read a book for a while. When she felt tired, she went to knit a sweater. There was a cup of coffee at hand to refresh herself.
Lunch consisted of steamed buns and mutton soup. After drinking it, the whole body felt warm. Qi Mengmeng also made herself a cup of tea to clear her mouth.
Before dinner, Qi Mengmeng finished knitting the sweater. She looked at the time. It was five o'clock, and it was almost time for dinner. She planned to send it over after dinner.
Qi Mengmeng prepared to eat noodles with soybean paste for dinner. She had learned how to make meat soybean paste on the Internet before, so she stocked up several kinds of paste at home specifically for making soybean paste.
Her method of making fried sauce has been improved several times and is no longer the same as the original method. It is necessary to mix several kinds of sauces, each of which requires a different proportion, to make the most fragrant fried sauce.
The meat in the fried sauce needs to be 30% fat and 70% lean. Cut it into small pieces and stir-fry with oil. When the fat in the fat is stir-fried out, add the prepared sauce and stir-fry for a while. When the fried sauce becomes shiny, you can serve it.
Qi Mengmeng scooped out the fried meat sauce and put the cooked noodles into the pot of fried meat sauce so as not to waste the sauce.
After every noodle was coated with the sauce, Qi Mengmeng served the noodles, scooped a spoonful of meat into the bowl, and then added the cucumber cut into thin strips and mixed them together.
This kind of noodles with soybean paste is Qi Mengmeng’s favorite, she can eat two bowls.
She had just taken a bite when she heard Qi Zhijun's voice outside the door.
Qi Mengmeng took a look at the kitchen first, and when she didn't see anything that shouldn't be there, she went to open the door.
"Dad, why are you here today?"
"I'm here to invite you to dinner. Your Aunt Zheng cooked meat today."
Qi Mengmeng shook her head: "Dad, I've already cooked noodles, so I won't go over to eat."
"We're cooking meat at home today, just the right amount to nourish your body." Qi Zhijun still wanted Qi Mengmeng to come over.
"No, Dad. If I go over to eat, the noodles at home will be left over." Qi Mengmeng still refused. "I have already knitted a sweater for Dad. Dad, try it on."
Qi Zhijun was brought into the house by Qi Mengmeng to try on a sweater. After he put on the sweater, he immediately nodded and turned around for Qi Mengmeng to see.
"Meng Meng, what do you think?"
"It's pretty good." Qi Mengmeng nodded and thought it was good too.
Qi Zhijun specially knitted this sweater with plain stitch. Although the style is simple, the quality of the wool is good and it looks good when worn.
Qi Mengmeng's house doesn't have a big mirror, so Qi Zhijun can't see the sweater clearly, but since it was knitted for him by his daughter, it must be very good.
He took something out of his pocket and placed it on the table.
"This is what your grandpa left behind. I'm giving it to you now. If you don't want to eat at home, I'll bring you some more food coupons and meat coupons tomorrow."
Qi Zhijun took the sweater and left. Qi Mengmeng stared at what he put down in a daze.
