As soon as Yi Xiaoqiu came out, he saw the half bowl of blackened dried fish in Gao Wenwen's hand and laughed out loud.
She said nothing, just looked at Ji Shuyan and Gao Wenwen.
If Ji Shuyan could be won over by this little thing, it would be a piece of cake for Yi Xiaoqiu.
At least if you capture his stomach, you can capture his heart. For Yi Xiaoqiu, who has a life manager, this is too easy.
If she is afraid of making a mistake, she can just learn how to cook from the housekeeper!
Unfortunately, when Yi Xiaoqiu looked away, Ji Shuyan didn't even glance at her, but just said coldly: "No need."
You're smart!
Yi Xiaoqiu gave Ji Shuyan a look that told him to figure it out on his own, then turned and went into the house.
Seeing this, Ji Shuyan followed Yi Xiaoqiu into the main room.
Gao Wenwen stared at Ji Shuyan's departing back, an unpredictable look on her face.
Aunt Liu, who had already walked a few steps away, turned her head and looked at Gao Wenwen and shook her head.
In the main room, Ji Shuyan put breakfast on the table.
"Qiuqiu is having breakfast."
Yi Xiaoqiu, who had developed a picky appetite due to the housekeeper, looked at the porridge and steamed buns and had no appetite at all.
These things would be considered good food if left outside, but who can blame Yi Xiaoqiu for having a big farm?
It's like it's a rationale that people in the 21st century look down on this simple breakfast.
It looks like the kitchen will be built soon.
By then, Ji Shuyan would go out for morning exercises, and the housekeeper would make breakfast, all done secretly without anyone knowing.
"Can the kitchen be built today?"
Yi Xiaoqiu sat at the table, took a steamed bun, broke a small half in his hand, and stuffed the other half directly into Ji Shuyan's hand.
Oh! What a sin!
Yi Xiaoqiu felt filled with guilt when he thought about having to secretly eat meat alone again.
Ji Shuyan was a little confused. Why was Yi Xiaoqiu looking at him with such a lustful expression? Did she know about her problem?
As soon as this idea came up, Ji Shuyan rejected it.
Apart from his old man, only the doctors and nurses who treated him at the time knew about this. As long as he didn't say anything, Yi Xiaoqiu would not have known that he was injured and infertile.
Thinking of his own health problems, Ji Shuyan, who was originally quite healthy, became depressed again.
In the past few years, his emotions have been fluctuating like this, and no matter how hard he tries to control himself, it doesn't help.
Ji Shuyan cheered up and said, "Okay, Monkey and the others will come to help later."
"How many people? I'll prepare the food."
Yi Xiaoqiu still planned to do the same as yesterday.
Her craftsmanship is just average, and she can barely make a decent living as a housekeeper.
"Five or six."
Adding a small house would be enough for five or six people.
Yi Xiaoqiu was secretly thinking about what dishes to prepare for lunch.
If it were a farm, he wouldn't have to worry about how many people came, but this was outside, and it was difficult to get the vegetables without a source.
"Where do the women in the team buy their groceries?"
Ji Shuyan frowned.
He knew the village where he could buy vegetables, but he had never been there to buy vegetables.
But he still:
"I'll take you for a walk later."
"OK."
Yi Xiaoqiu naturally agreed.
I was busy buying furniture yesterday and went shopping in the county. It’s time to get familiar with what life in the army is like.
Jinjia Village is not far from the army. Go out of the gate, turn right into a small road, and walk straight for 500 meters to arrive.
There is a vegetable supply point in the village. The vegetables are not transported from other places. The villagers sell them to the vegetable supply point, and then people in the army come to buy them.
When Yi Xiaoqiu and the others arrived, it was already noon. There were not many vegetables left in the vegetable supply area, just a few deformed eggplants and a bunch of lifeless-looking amaranth.
Unexpectedly, there were two pieces of tofu.
Yi Xiaoqiu bought them all. "We do have some vegetables at home, but I'm afraid they're not enough, so I'll add a little more."
There were still quite a lot of leftover vegetables from yesterday, but Yi Xiaoqiu wanted to give Ji Shuyan the impression that there were quite a lot of messy vegetables at home, so that he wouldn't notice if she secretly added vegetables from the farm when cooking.
Ji Shuyan looked at the ugly eggplant in Yi Xiaoqiu's hand and said, "I get up early every day and buy vegetables in the morning."
"No need! I'll buy it!" Yi Xiaoqiu refused without thinking.
If she asked him to buy the vegetables, how could she secretly take them from the farm?
Ji Shuyan glanced at Yi Xiaoqiu, and asked with a flickering look: Can you get up so early in the morning?
Yi Xiaoqiu pulled Ji Shuyan away from the food supply point.
"Next time I'll ask Aunt Liu if she buys rice privately from fellow villagers or at the vegetable market. If she does it privately, I'll ask her to introduce me to her. That way we don't have to go shopping so early in the future. Besides, buying rice privately is cheaper."
Ji Shuyan didn't expect Yi Xiaoqiu to think so much at once.
However, he didn't object.
When the two men returned home with the vegetables, Monkey and Zhu Jiaxian were busy digging the foundation in the backyard with five or six soldiers.
Because it was an additional hut, the foundation was not dug deep, and seven or eight grown men finished digging in a short time.
The conditions are difficult now, and there are many talented people in the army.
Building walls, mud work, raising pigs, farming...
The soldiers who came to help Yi Xiaoqiu's house were those who often built walls.
To be honest, Yi Xiaoqiu had never seen such a beautifully built wall. Every brick was neatly laid, just like the imitation red brick tiles in later generations.
Yi Xiaoqiu looked for a while and seeing that it was getting late, he started to prepare dinner.
Before cooking, Yi Xiaoqiu prepared a pot of sour plum soup for the workers.
Of course, this is also the housekeeper's job.
Lunch is mixed grain rice, and the vegetable portions must be sufficient.
Yesterday I marinated pork with salt and cooked it directly with tofu.
Yi Xiaoqiu was afraid that it was not enough, so he asked the housekeeper to add more pork when cooking.
Not only the meat, but other dishes as well, the portions are all generous.
When there are many people, we are afraid that there won’t be enough food.
Everyone was busy in the backyard, and no one saw what Yi Xiaoqiu was cooking in the front yard.
However, Aunt Liu from next door asked several times if she needed help, but Yi Xiaoqiu refused every time.
What a joke, how can others see this?
Even though Yi Xiaoqiu was squatting by the stove adding firewood to the fire, she was actually just cooking.
She planned to take advantage of the fact that everyone was busy in the backyard and didn't even want to cook for the sake of appearance, so she could just put the dishes on the stove and serve them on the table.
Seeing that no one was watching in the yard next door, Yi Xiaoqiu took out the dishes prepared by the housekeeper and placed them on the stove. When the time was almost up, she went to the backyard to call everyone to eat.
In the backyard, Gao Wenwen was delivering water to everyone.
As soon as Yi Xiaoqiu came in, he was immediately happy.
No wonder I didn’t see Gao Wenwen in the front yard just now. It turned out that she ran to her backyard.
She was worried about being seen by Gao Wenwen when she took out the dishes just now, but she ended up staring at her man.
This guy is really shameless!
"Brother Shu Yan, call everyone to eat!"
As for Gao Wenwen, Yi Xiaoqiu automatically ignored her.
There are so many people here, and Ji Shuyan is not alone.
Even if she wanted to say something about Gao Wenwen, she couldn't say it in front of everyone.
