Chapter 442 Unit Dormitory
After visiting the small villa, everyone went back to the living room to continue playing. Qiao Mo was afraid that they would be bored, so she took out a set of mahjong and two sets of poker from the study and set up two tables in the living room. Those who liked to play mahjong played mahjong, and those who liked to play poker played poker. She took the children to play in the house.
In the blink of an eye, it was already past four o'clock. Qiao Mo let the children play by themselves while she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Since she was going to make hot pot, she prepared the base of the pot first.
Although there were a lot of ready-made hot pot ingredients in her space, she couldn't take them out, so she had to prepare them herself: she heated up the oil in a pot, added the washed cinnamon, star anise, fennel, tsaoko, ginger, garlic, dried red chili segments, etc. into the hot oil and stir-fried them until fragrant, then added the chopped mutton into the pot and stir-fried it for a few minutes, added the bone broth and brought it to a boil, then simmered it over low heat.
She took out a copper hot pot from the cupboard, took some charcoal, lit it on the coal stove, and then used tongs to put the hot pot into the furnace and put more charcoal on it.
She put the chopped radish into the hot pot, then poured the mutton and the soup into the pot, covered the pot and simmered it while she continued to stir-fry other dishes.
At this time, Kang Mingyuan also came in to help. The two pots started working at once. Half an hour later, all the dishes were fried. Qiao Mo first put an insulating pad on the dining table, brought the hot pot to the table, and then brought the fried dishes to the table. She put the washed vegetables in a sieve and took them to the dining room and put them on the shelf next to them for easy access at any time. After preparing everything, she called everyone to eat.
"Momo, you're too polite, aren't you?" Han Yimo saw that there were both hot pot and stir-fried dishes on the dining table, and he knew that he was in for a treat today.
"It's nothing, I hope you like it." Qiao Mo said with a smile.
"Today, please have a taste of Momo's cooking. Men, please drink some wine. Sisters, sisters-in-law, would you like wine or red wine?" Kang Mingyuan opened a bottle of wine first.
"Let's drink red wine." Hu Zhen spoke on behalf of the female members.
"I'm going to drive soon, so I won't drink." Kang Mingyuan's sister Kang Yue raised her hand and said.
"I don't drink either." Kang Wenyuan also remembered that they still had to drive back to Tang.
"My elder sister and sixth brother drank hot milk with the child."
Kang Mingyuan handed the wine to Han Yimo and asked him to help pour it. He opened a bottle of red wine and gave it to Qiao Mo. He also took out a few cups and poured milk in. However, this milk was not fresh milk, but milk powder.
The banquet lasted for more than an hour before it ended. It was almost seven o'clock. Everyone just sat for a while and then said goodbye. Qiao Mo and Kang Mingyuan stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched the jeep they were riding in disappear from their sight before turning around and walking back.
Back home, Kang Mingyuan was responsible for cleaning up the mess, while Qiao Mo went back to his room to wash up, and then returned to the living room to sit in front of the fireplace and read.
Kang Mingyuan was quick and efficient, and he cleaned the kitchen in half an hour. When he came out of the kitchen, he saw Qiao Mo sitting there reading quietly. Against the backdrop of the red firelight, her jade-like face looked even more bright and charming.
It's just that he didn't come over. He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and went to the bathroom to wash up. After washing up, he applied the men's cream that Qiao Mo made specially for him before coming over and sitting next to her.
"Momo, the yard in the south area is going to be rented out. Should we move?" Kang Mingyuan asked, putting his arm around her shoulders.
