It was already late when Qiao Mo returned to the old house. She went back to her room, slipped into the space, went to the bungalow to get ten kilograms of rice, two casseroles, a chicken, half a kilogram of pork belly and a bag of dried mushrooms, and went to the vegetable garden at the back to pick two eggplants and a handful of beans, brought them out of the space and started cooking.
She first soaked the dried mushrooms in clean water, then chopped the chicken into pieces, blanched it in cold water, put it into a casserole, added ginger slices and clean water, and put it on the fire, first boiling it over high heat, then simmering it over low heat.
Taking advantage of this break, she washed the eggplant, cut it into strips and soaked it in water. Then she washed the soaked dried mushrooms and put them in a sieve for later use. She also cut the pork belly into a paste and chopped the washed ginger and garlic into pieces.
After preparing everything, Qiao Mo sat at the kitchen door, reading a book while watching the fire. When the chicken was stewed to 80% done, he added the dried mushrooms and then went to wash the rice and cook.
After the chicken is stewed, take the eggplant out of the water, steam it and squeeze out the water. Then heat oil in a pan and stir-fry the ginger and garlic until fragrant. Add the minced meat into the pan and stir-fry until golden brown. Then add the steamed eggplant into the pan, stir-fry for a few times, add salt to taste, remove from the pan and place in an enamel bowl and cover it with a lid.
She took out two insulated lunch boxes and filled them with rice and chicken soup. She also took a few bowls and a few pairs of chopsticks and put them all in a net bag. Then she quietly went to find the driver, gave him the food, and asked him to take it to the hospital.
She went back inside to clean up the kitchen and then went to the main house to eat.
"Aunt, aren't you going to the research institute to accompany your uncle?" She sat down at the dining table, and Xiaojun sat down next to her and asked with a smile.
"Well, your uncle is going to conduct research in seclusion, and your grandfather has been assigned to the army and is not at home. I will not go to the research institute during this period. Except for going to Yongxing Street for work, I will stay in the old house and go to school when school starts." Qiao Mo nodded with a smile.
"That's great, aunt, we can play together again." Xiaoliang jumped up happily: In this family, only uncle and aunt will take them to play various games. Although uncle can't go home, it's good to have aunt around.
"Aunt, are you so happy to be back?" The old lady asked with a smile when she saw her two grandsons so happy.
"Well, we are so happy." Xiaojun nodded.
"You little brat, since you like your aunt so much, why don't you just follow her?" The old lady reached out and pinched Xiaojun's face and said with a smile.
"If mom and dad don't come back when school starts, we'll go live with my aunt on Yongxing Street." Xiaojun thought it wasn't bad to live with his uncle and aunt. After all, there was a primary school and a kindergarten on Yongxing Street, and it wasn't far from my aunt's house. Not only could he go to school by himself, but he could also pick up and drop off his younger brother.
"Mr. Wu, when the time comes, let him cook for you." The old man also said with a smile.
"As long as your parents agree, Xiaojun and Xiaoliang will move to your uncle's house." Qiao Mo also nodded with a smile. She knew that Kang Zhiyuan and Wang Meilan would never let their two sons live with them.
"Oh, I don't know when mom and dad will be back." Although Xiaojun likes his uncle and aunt, he also misses his parents.
"Don't worry, maybe he will be back soon." Qiao Mo rubbed his hair.
"Well, grandpa is back, they should be back soon." Xiaojun nodded seriously.
Qiao Mo had dinner in the main house, took Xiaojun and Xiaoliang to his own house to take a bath, and then sent them back to the main house before going back into the space to do his own things.
At this time, in the military hospital, Kang Mingyuan saw Wang Meilan go to chat with the nurse, and then sat next to Kang Zhiyuan.
