[Chapter 111 Chapter 111 Barbecue]
Shen Yuyao said: "When you mentioned treating us just now, I remembered it. How about we have a barbecue in the yard?"
"Barbecue?" Cheng Liyan frowned. "Where can we buy so much meat now? You don't know how much these people can eat. With Chen Fei and Lao Yan here, they can finish a whole sheep in one meal!"
Shen Yuyao said: "My second brother is a martial artist. I told you that, right? He told me and my third brother before how they barbecued in the wild when they went out for the night.
We even made it at home according to what he said.
My second brother said that the ingredients I prepared tasted much better than the ones they baked, and he even asked for my recipe.
It's hard for us to buy meat, but we can grill other things.
We have tried it. Not only meat, but also vegetables that are not too watery, such as pumpkin and potatoes, can be roasted.
Sweet potatoes can also be roasted, as can eggplants… Although I haven’t tried it, roasted eggplants must be delicious too!”
Shen Yuyao became more excited as she spoke: "I was having dinner at Teacher Ye's house the other day, and I thought those hard-shelled shellfish that Aunt Lin across the street bought should be grilled.
Steaming is heating, baking is heating, so why can't it be possible?"
When Cheng Liyan first heard his wife talking about their barbecue at home, he actually wanted to laugh.
He felt that the barbecue methods that his wife's second brother told her were probably just a joke.
I've been on so many missions, and there have been too many times when I was stuck in the wild and had to just light a fire and roast some dry food.
Not to mention roasting dry food, they would occasionally hunt some wild animals and roast meat.
But to be honest, the taste is just enough to fill the stomach, and it is not delicious at all.
The little fire lit in the wild can only roast the game until it is half-cooked, and it is enough to ensure that it does not cause diarrhea when eaten. Who would really think about how to make it delicious?
But seeing that his wife was getting more and more excited, and even took out a pen and paper to start drawing the pattern of the barbecue grill, Cheng Liyan didn't say anything.
He didn't want to dampen his wife's mood.
If she wants to do it, just do it. Isn't it just buying some vegetables and seafood?
What is that worth?
As long as she is happy.
The more Shen Yuyao talked, the more she felt that her idea was a good one, and she began to look forward to the dinner party two days later.
She had no idea that her husband was not optimistic about her idea at all.
The reason why he didn't object was actually that he was somewhat indulgent.
She drew a picture of the charcoal basin and iron net to be used for barbecue and gave it to Cheng Liyan, who agreed immediately after taking a look at it.
He said this was too easy. He took it to the military factory and could make ten sets for her in a day!
Seeing that he said it so easily, Shen Yuyao simply asked for another hundred iron skewers, and specifically stated that the front ends had to be sharpened, and all these things had to be in place by the day after tomorrow morning at the latest.
Cheng Liyan agreed to all of them without hesitation.
On the day of the dinner party, Shen Yuyao took a day off.
Cheng Liyan, who had originally promised that he would take care of everything, had to go to the Sea Eagle Regiment early in the morning because he had some work to hand over.
Although he repeatedly told Shen Yuyao not to worry about it before leaving and that he would cook the meals when he returned in the evening, Shen Yuyao still went to the vegetable market after he left.
-
Because his wife took their daughter back to their hometown to visit relatives, Yan Huayang was the only one who came to dinner today.
The weather in May was already a bit hot, especially after riding for more than an hour, both of them were sweating profusely.
Cheng Liyan and I went to the best braised food restaurant in Binhai and bought braised pig's trotters, roast pork, smoked chicken and smoked fish.
They ran to the state-owned restaurant to buy braised hairtail and salt and pepper shrimp, and then the two of them started to rush to the staff quarters.
Looking at the bags that filled the handlebars of the two bikes, Yan Huayang exclaimed: "You've really spent a lot of money today! Although you're such a jerk, you just left without saying goodbye and left me here. But for the sake of these delicious foods, I won't bother with you."
Cheng Liyan sneered and glanced at him: "If you have the guts, go tell Master Ye about this."
Yan Huayang chuckled and said nothing.
Yan Huayang was completely stunned when he received the transfer order from Cheng Liyan.
He just couldn't figure it out. He was just on a business trip, so why did the transfer order come before he came back?
And look at what is written on this transfer order!
The leader of their Sea Eagle Regiment was actually transferred to be the commander of the security battalion?
Is this a transfer order or a demotion notice?
Yan Huayang was full of confusion and resentment, and was about to run to the division headquarters to find out what was going on, but Cheng Liyan went back.
Cheng Liyan did not hide anything from his old partner and told him the whole story.
Yan Huayang was shocked after hearing this, and then felt depressed.
He knew that Cheng Liyan was really leaving this time.
And it will be difficult to come back later.
Such thoughts made Yan Huayang unhappy for the past two days.
The manifestation of his unhappiness was that he wanted to make something to provoke Cheng Liyan from time to time.
The two of us went back to the division headquarters’ staff quarters, each arguing with the other.
When they were still quite a distance away from Cheng Liyan's house, they both smelled a fragrance they had never smelled before.
The taste is indescribably strange.
Sweet, fragrant, and with a hint of burnt sugar.
"Is my sister-in-law making malt sugar at home?" Yan Huayang said as he swallowed his saliva.
Two people got out of the car and parked it in front of the gate.
Through the courtyard gate, the two heard the giggling sounds of children coming from inside.
Among the voices, Cheng Liyan was particularly familiar with it. He recognized it was from Xiu Xiu.
He knew that it must be Xiao Mei who came here early with Xiu Xiu and Bing Bing.
As soon as he opened the door, he was shocked!
Wow, their yard is so lively!
There were seven or eight children standing there.
Cheng Liyan stood at the door, completely shocked by the scene.
Yan Huayang was also confused, and couldn't help but poke Cheng Liyan with his elbow and whispered, "You invited a lot of people today!"
The meaning is obvious -
You've invited so many people, who will eat the little meat we bought?
Fortunately, at this moment, Xiao Mei came out of the house.
She was holding a large plate with some roasted pumpkin and potatoes on it.
Seeing the two of them, she greeted them, "Cheng Tuan, Political Commissar Yan, you're back? Please go in first. Engineer Qi and Dean Qi are all in the room.
Once I share this little bit with them, we can almost have dinner."
