The two of them were childishly quarreling in the market, but fortunately there were so many people and noisy that they didn't attract much attention.
It's quite relaxing to eat popcorn while shopping.
"Let's go make some popcorn before we go back. We don't know when we'll meet again." Jian Shu suggested.
Seeing that she liked it, Gu Mingjing nodded and said, "Okay."
As the two of them ate and walked around, the number of people in the market gradually decreased, and many people began to pack up their stalls and prepare to leave. Those who stayed were basically those who arrived late or had not sold all their goods.
Gu Mingjing looked at the time and it was almost time for the appointment.
He tilted his head to look at Jianshu, whose interest was waning. "Are you still interested in shopping? If not, why not go get the tofu and take it home first?"
"I don't want to go shopping anymore." Jian Shu yawned. "Let's go home after we get our things. I'm tired."
I got up early today and walked for a long time. I didn’t notice it before, but now my interest has waned and I’m starting to feel tired.
"Go make some more popcorn first. You won't come back later. Just get the things and go from the village. It's closer." Gu Mingjing frowned slightly when he saw her tired look.
"I'll listen to you." Jianshu nodded, then yawned again.
Seeing this, Gu Mingjing didn't delay any longer. He popped some more popcorn and walked towards the village.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the village chief, he politely declined his offer to have someone give him a ride. He made the excuse that his brother was waiting for someone to pick him up at the intersection, and then he said goodbye and left, carrying more than 100 kilograms of luggage.
After walking a few hundred meters and turning a corner, the village was hidden by the woods behind him. Jianshu found an empty corner and quickly put all the things into the space, leaving only some lighter items outside as a cover.
On the way back, Jianshu saw many fellow travelers, but he didn't see Wu Xiufang, so he didn't know if she had left yet. The market was so large and crowded that he walked around without running into anyone he knew.
They set out at around five o'clock in the morning and arrived home almost one o'clock, a total of almost eight hours, most of which they spent wandering around.
The buns and sweet potatoes I had for breakfast had long been digested, and I was already starving.
Since the matter of the space had been made clear, Jianshu no longer concealed it after arriving home. He lay down on the sofa, sent Gu Mingjing to light the fire to keep warm, and he himself rummaged through the food stored in the space.
"What do you want to eat? Rice or noodles? We have steamed buns, dumplings, barbecue, steak, pizza..."
Listening to Jianshu's words like a menu, Gu Mingjing couldn't help but hold his forehead, "How much have you secretly eaten alone behind my back?"
Jianshu: “…” He looked up at the sky and down at the earth, but didn’t look at him.
Can you say she cooks a special meal almost every day? There are all kinds of dried meats, dried fruits, and snacks all the time.
"Um?"
"Oh, I'm hungry! Do you want to eat or not? If not, I'll eat alone!" Jianshu abruptly changed the subject, as if the loudest voice was the only one who was right.
Gu Mingjing chuckled and stopped teasing her, "Okay, I'll do as you say. I can eat anything."
"No, you must choose the one you like best!" Jianshu disagreed.
"Then let's have noodles." It's cold, so eating something with soup will warm you up.
"What kind of noodles do you want? I have shredded pork noodles, beef noodles, kelp and tofu noodles, and noodles with soybean paste..."
Seeing that she started to name the dishes again, Gu Mingjing quickly stopped her, "Let's order beef noodles!"
"Okay!" Jianshu responded happily, and the next second a big bowl of steaming beef noodles appeared on the table. The overbearing aroma of red oil wafted into the air, and the large chunks of beef on top of the noodles were so tempting that one couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Gu Mingjing looked at the scene in amazement. Although he had learned from Jian Shu that the space could preserve freshness, no matter how long it had been, it would look exactly the same as when it was first put in. But seeing the steaming beef noodles in person was truly an eye-opener.
It is so magical that it is hard to believe if you don’t see it with your own eyes.
Jianshu took out a bowl of spicy hot pot for himself. It had meat, vegetables and noodles. The dishes were rich in color and tasted good. It was the best choice when you didn’t know what to eat.
After mixing the cilantro and chopped green onions, she saw Gu Mingjing still standing there motionless. She looked up in confusion and said, "Eat, aren't you hungry?"
Gu Mingjing regained consciousness, pulled out a chair and sat down. He picked up two slices of beef with chopsticks and put them into his mouth, chewing slowly. The beef was braised and very tasty. He took another big mouthful of noodles. The noodles were soaked in the soup and tasted slightly numb and a little spicy, but he couldn't help but eat one bite after another and couldn't stop.
The noodles are also very chewy and don’t feel like they have been soaked in soup for a long time.
The large slices of beef were very satisfying to eat, and the layer of noodles on top was all eaten up in a short while.
Seeing that he enjoyed it, Jianshu took out another pound of chopped braised beef and said, "Eat slowly, there's more after you finish it."
Although we eat meat at home quite often, most of the time we just cut some meat into strips or slices and stir-fry them with vegetables, or stew meat bones. We don't often eat meat in big mouthfuls.
Most of the meat we eat is pork. We only eat mutton twice if we come across it occasionally, not to mention beef. I haven't eaten it twice in more than a year since I came here.
She could still cook for herself occasionally, but Gu Mingjing hadn't eaten for a long time.
Gu Mingjing couldn't stop eating, the beef was so delicious!
However, he did not forget Jian Shu. Seeing that there was not much meat in her bowl, mostly vegetables and shrimp, he picked up a few pieces of beef for her and said, "Wife, you should eat too."
"You should eat more. How can I starve myself?" Jian Shu said with a smile.
Gu Mingjing touched his nose embarrassedly. Yes, his wife must eat a lot of it normally, so how could she be short of this?
Seeing Jianshu picking out the vegetables to eat, he also understood why she preferred to eat the side dishes such as potatoes and beans when she stewed meat in the past.
After realizing this, Gu Mingjing stopped serving food to Jianshu. Instead, he shamelessly tried to eat the food in front of her eyes. "Wife, let me try yours too. The shrimps are really big and look delicious."
Jianshu: “…” After giving him a speechless look, she still picked up some of the side dishes in her bowl and gave them to him.
Prawns, beef rolls, beef balls, potato chips, bean curd sheets, bean sticks, fried dough sticks...they are all her favorites.
But that bastard kept saying things like "give me more of this" and "don't want that", which made people very angry.
"Take it and eat your own!" Seeing that his favorite was getting less and less, Jianshu couldn't stand it anymore. He took out another bowl of spicy hot pot and took back what he had given away.
As for whether the beef noodle soup would taste bad if it got stuck to it, she didn't care. She just wouldn't let him eat it! Not even a single vegetable leaf!
