Chapter 372 Decision
Qiao Mo saw that the counter not only had red cashmere fabrics but also silks of various colors, so he asked Kang Mingyuan, "Brother Yuan, do you think I should wear a coat or a cotton-padded jacket?"
"Mo Mo looks good in whatever she wears, as long as you like it." Kang Mingyuan liked her as a person, not her clothes, and didn't care much about what she wore.
"Then I decide for myself. What kind of clothes do you want to wear? Mao suit or Western suit?"
"Well, that's up to you. As for what kind of clothes I wear, they just have to match yours."
Qiao Mo nodded, thinking that she already had several coats, and it would be a bit too much to add another coat, so she chose a piece of red brocade, a piece of dark blue wool and some silk threads.
"That's all?"
"Yes, this brocade will be used to make cotton-padded clothes, and this woolen material will be used to make me a pair of trousers and you a set of clothes." Qiao Mo nodded.
"You're not buying shoes?"
"Don't buy shoes here." Qiao Mo had already looked at the leather shoes. The styles were not very good and they were very expensive. In order not to let her heart bleed, she decided to find two pairs of leather shoes with better quality and more rustic styles in the space to wear.
Kang Mingyuan nodded. If she didn't want to buy it, then she didn't. "I still have some overseas remittance coupons here. What else do you want to buy?"
"Let's go to the second floor and buy an electric rice cooker." Qiao Mo thought for a while and said, it is so convenient to cook rice with an electric rice cooker, she really wants to have one.
"Okay." Kang Mingyuan nodded, and the two of them went upstairs again and bought a rice cooker for 20 cents.
The two spent a large sum of money at the Friendship Store and then went to the Department Store to buy fabric for the lining of their cotton-padded jackets before returning to the Qiao family.
After returning home, Kang Mingyuan poured all the fish he had caught into a large basin. After washing them, he used a kitchen knife to cut open the fish's belly, squeezed out the internal organs and threw them away, then threw them into another basin of clean water.
Qiao Mo took a small stool and sat next to him. He rinsed the fish in the clean water and then took them out and put them in a sieve to control the water.
Kang Mingyuan caught a lot of fish, and it took them more than an hour to clean them all. When the water was almost drained, Qiao Mo put them in a wooden basin, marinated them with salt and spices, and then put them in the space. After marinating, he steamed them and finally dried them slowly over low heat. The roasted fish was ready.
"Mo Mo, you've been tired all day. Take a rest first. I'll go cook." Kang Mingwu saw that it was getting late, so he pushed Qiao Mo onto the sofa and went into the kitchen.
"Brother Yuan, you can use an electric rice cooker to cook rice, so you don't need to light a fire." Qiao Mo reminded him that they were not at home and he didn't have any coal fire, so using an electric rice cooker was the most convenient way.
"Got it." Kang Mingyuan took out the rice cooker, read the instructions carefully, then cleaned the rice cooker, washed the rice and cooked it, and then prepared the dishes.
There were only two of them, so Kang Mingyuan made stir-fried pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with bitter melon, fried eggplant and carrot soup.
It was time for dinner, and Kang Mingyuan didn't stay long. He divided half of the wild lilies that Qiao Mo and the others had dug and prepared to eat them.
"Brother Yuan, these lilies are thanks to Brother Mo. We also need to send some to the Han family." Qiao Mo gave half of the lilies he had left to Kang Mingyuan.
"No need, I will send half of the remaining ones to the Han family." Lily is a relatively expensive tonic, and Qiao Mo will definitely send some to the Wu family, so Kang Mingyuan wanted to leave more for her.
"It's okay. I'll save some spheres for seeds and plant them in the backyard. Then I won't have to worry about not having lilies to eat in the future." Qiao Mo insisted that he take half.
Kang Mingyuan had no choice but to take some, but not half, only one-third: "Even if you plant it, you have to wait until autumn to harvest. You should save more and occasionally make some soup with lilies, lotus seeds, or white fungus."
"I understand. Go back."
