Chapter 243 We can’t all follow him in his quest for food

The pigs that Lin Wanxia brought were slaughtered, leaving only two, one male and one female.

The reason why they were not slaughtered was not because they could not eat them. The reason was that the leader of the kitchen squad heard that Lin Wanxia would not take the pigs away, and said that he would keep them for breeding.

When the time comes, the piglets will be raised, and Lin Wanxia and the kitchen squad will each have half.

Lin Wanxia said that she didn’t want the piglets, but the leader of the kitchen squad refused.

His original words were, “Although we are all soldiers of Jiangying, we can’t all follow him in his quest for food.”

It is said that when Jiang Sinian heard this, the kitchen squad, which was originally only on half-training, became on full-time training.

Half-training is basically a privilege of the logistics support unit. The duration, intensity, and assessment requirements of their training were all half of those of the full-time officers and soldiers.

When Lin Wanxia found out, she asked Jiang Sinian, "You don't mind what others say. Why are you picking on the squad leader? He was just joking."

In fact, he just didn't want to take advantage of Lin Wanxia.

The whole battalion followed Jiang Sinian and ate three pigs, four sheep, and a young bull in a month.

Jiang Sinian snorted, without making excuses, "No one is perfect, no gold is pure. I am just so petty."

Later, the baby-faced man told Lin Wanxia the truth, "How could we in Jiangying be so petty? Besides, you underestimated our thick skin. Eating and drinking for free is addictive, how could you stop eating and drinking because you feel embarrassed?"

Lin Wanxia: "..."

"It was during the Chinese New Year when we were preparing for war, and our islands were not a safe zone, so the kitchen team would definitely not be able to train for half a day. It just happened to be a reason to 'revenge for personal gain.'"

Lin Wanxia: "..."

She said something meaningful to the baby-faced man, "I finally know what it means that a man stays young until he dies!"

Baby-faced man: "Huh?"

The baby-faced man who asked around when he didn't understand finally let Jiang Sinian's words reach his ears.

Jiang Sinian didn't understand either, so he asked Lin Wanxia while the two were whispering to each other.

Lin Wanxia replied with two words: "Childish!"

Jiang Sinian: "..."

In order to prove that he was not childish, Lin Wanxia did not get out of bed the next day.

But that's a story for later.

On New Year's Eve, everyone in the camp gathered on Xiangyang Island, except for those on duty.

Several stoves were lit in the auditorium, and there was an iron pot on each stove.

Some were stewed with bones, some were marinated with pork heads, pork skins, and pork trotters, and some were thick soup bases for hot pot.

The ingredients for hot pot on New Year's Eve were unprecedentedly rich.

In addition to pork, mutton, beef, cabbage, potatoes, vermicelli and meatballs, there were really green leafy vegetables.

Grown in greenhouses.

Spinach, lettuce, coriander, rapeseed.

The tender green seedlings were picked and brought back.

One is to enrich the taste, and the other is to make the gaps between the vegetables bigger.

Otherwise, they will be squeezed together and cannot grow.

Everyone was amazed at the green leafy vegetables that were no longer than ten centimeters.

The officers and soldiers knew that Lin Wanxia was building a vegetable greenhouse, but they didn't know that she really grew vegetables in winter that shouldn't be there at this time of year.

The sisters-in-law were even more surprised when they first arrived.

Compared with other sisters-in-law who talked about family matters all day long, Lin Wanxia was much more special.

She was basically not at home when she was awake. She

was either taking care of vegetables in the greenhouse or looking after the canteen, and she had to go to class on time.

Under her "pillow wind", the officers and soldiers had a much better life, and there was also a Spring Festival sports meeting to be held.

At least the officers and soldiers who came to help rarely sighed.

He sighed unconsciously, and even looked confused when you asked him what was wrong.

The food was on the table, but no one started eating.

Everyone was waiting.

According to custom, the highest commander of the archipelago, the regiment commander, would come over to speak.

Fortunately, the regiment commander arrived before the food got cold.

"Wow!" The regiment commander laughed as he entered the "auditorium", "It is said that the island where your camp is located is the most remote, the distance between islands is the farthest, and it is closest to the enemy. Everyone is worried that you don't have enough food and drink. I think this is very bad!" It is

better than the regiment headquarters.

The island where the regiment headquarters is located used to be inhabited. It is also the largest natural island in the Xinzhong Archipelago.

Everyone invited the regiment commander to stay for dinner. The head

of the regiment waved his hands, "I have to go to the next camp, you guys eat and drink well!"

Before leaving, he praised Lin Wanxia, ​​"You are worthy of being the Little Dragon Girl. Only within your sphere of influence can my soldiers have no worries about food and clothing. I thank you on their behalf. In addition, I will arrange for people from other camps to come and learn about this vegetable greenhouse from you."

On the island, fresh water resources are not the most scarce, but green leafy vegetables are really scarce.

The common problem of green leafy vegetables is that they are not easy to store.

Even if the transport ship comes at full speed, it will take at least five days or at most a week.

Basically, fresh vegetables are not available.

But Lin Wanxia used practical actions to tell everyone: you can eat fresh vegetables.

It only takes ten minutes from picking to cooking, five minutes for the journey, and five minutes for picking and washing.

Lin Wanxia agreed, "Just one request, as soon as possible. I will leave the island after the 15th."

The head of the group was stunned, "So soon?!"

"There is no way." Lin Wanxia spread her hands, "The family is big and the expenses are big. I have to work hard to make money to support my family."

The head of the group laughed, and everyone laughed.

Especially the officers and soldiers on Xiangyang Island, they consciously put themselves in the mouths of those who were fooled.

Now the officers and soldiers on the island are very accepting of the fact that they are eating free meals.

The main thing is that no one is stupid. Isn't it good for Lin Wanxia to use 10,000 yuan for her own life? Why spend time and effort to treat them to food and drinks?

They may not be able to repay her, but they cannot be ungrateful.

After the head of the group left, the hall gradually became lively, and the soldiers who used to stand and sit as one person in the hall also relaxed.

After Lin Wanxia and the new sisters-in-law introduced themselves, they walked to the wooden platform in front of the hall with microphones.

The highlight of the night is the Spring Festival Gala.

If there is no TV, watch reality shows.

After Lin Wanxia gave a brief speech as a representative of the family, she returned the microphone to the host.

As the saying goes, the masters are among the people, and many of these young soldiers have unique skills.

Sing folk songs, play clappers, perform ventriloquism, know martial arts, three-sentence-and-a-half, crosstalk, etc.

Even a few children rehearsed a street dance with the help of Lin Wanxia.

Unfortunately, the music couldn't keep up.

Most of them were singing and dancing.

The atmosphere was there, and it didn't matter what, it was just lively.

Later on, there was no need for a host, whoever wanted to perform could go on stage and perform. The

people in the audience were sitting properly, and they were cheering even though they were drinking and making fists.

Time passed by, and the New Year's Eve dinner came to an end.

The children couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep.

Jiang Sinian and Lin Wanxia took Xingxing back to the tent.

Lin Wanxia was halfway through washing up when she suddenly straightened up.

Jiang Sinian was startled, and before he could open his mouth, he saw Lin Wanxia closed her eyes.

Jiang Sinian was afraid that she would fall down like last time, so he quickly put down his mouthwash cup and held her.

Lin Wanxia opened her eyes quickly, "A warship is coming."
