Chapter 460 Thanks
Of course, you can never be too careful.
"There's nothing we can do. We are military families." Liu Fanghua looked at Jiang Xiu with eyes full of empathy.
"Yes, I hope they are alive. This is my only wish." Jiang Xiu also joined in on the topic. Not to mention having feelings for them, even if she didn't have any feelings for them, she still hoped they would be safe and healthy.
"Oh, his aunt's cooking skills are so good that they are comparable to the chefs in state-owned restaurants. People in Haicheng can tell when they like fish just by tasting it." Gao Feng took a bite of the braised fish, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Let me try it too." Everyone started eating.
The cooking of these three female comrades here is not very good, and they usually try to eat the food in the cafeteria.
As soon as they tasted such delicious home-cooked meals, they envied others' cooking skills. At the beginning, these three women had the same idea: life was poor and the food was just so-so, so it was enough to be full, so why think so much.
However, we are all people who live in groups. The food in other people's homes has flavor, and the meat cooked in the cafeteria also has flavor.
After many experiments, I realized that there was something wrong with my craftsmanship.
If you come across someone cooking something delicious, praise it and eat more.
Jiang Miaomiao is better off, as she eats alternately in the school and factory canteens.
It’s different for other people. They eat in the cafeteria every day, and it’s the same for ten years. The food is really disgusting.
"This fish was made by my eldest nephew. He is the best cook in the family." Gu Lixia knew it was made by Huainan as soon as she took a bite.
Jiang Wen also weighed in on the topic, saying, "Indeed, there's a deep-rooted gender stereotype that considers the kitchen to be a female domain, but in reality, men are better at cooking than women."
"Throughout history, men were employed as professional chefs for royalty and aristocrats, while women were responsible for household cooking. Men dominated the kitchen, and cooking was not just about boiling and seasoning, but also about mastering the proportions and seasoning of ingredients."
"The chefs in state-owned restaurants are all men, and the women are only responsible for washing pots and dishes. In my family, apart from the four children, everyone else can cook, and my eldest nephew is the best."
After Jiang Wen finished speaking, Yun Mao and Gao Feng looked at each other and then at the man behind the female leader who was neither humble nor arrogant. For him, it was normal and natural for men to cook.
"It seems that I need to practice. I haven't cooked yet, so the most I can do is wash pots and dishes." Gao Feng joked to himself.
"Every profession has its specialization and practice makes perfect. I can't do what you do, but you may not succeed if you do what I do." Wallace Huo also felt that Jiang Wen was right.
"Are your ancestors from Jiangcheng? Local people in Jiangcheng don't have the surname Jiang." Gao Feng asked Jiang Wen.
"Yes, we used to be from Jiangcheng and lived in the mountains. The Japanese invaders raided the whole village and drove us out. We never went back into the mountains and just lived in the current Jiangjia Village." Jiang Wen really knew this.
"That's a local too." Yun Mao sighed and joined the rush to grab food.
Although they were all adults, they finished the food quite quickly because there was no wine.
Everyone slowed down only after filling their stomachs.
"Sister, brother-in-law, thank you for helping us with the school registration for the children. In two months, when the strawberries and watermelons in the yard are ripe, I will ask Huaixi to give you some recommendations. And Brother Yun, Brother Gao, Sister Liu, and Sister He, I would like to express my thanks to you verbally now, with soup instead of wine." Jiang Wen brought egg soup and said these words of thanks.
Why don’t you prepare any wine? Yunmao and Gaofeng have both quit drinking due to health reasons.
I used to be able to drink 2 kilograms of alcohol without any problem, but now the doctor doesn’t allow me to drink at all, so I don’t drink at all.
"Okay, okay." Wallace Huo agreed, and the others did the same, each with a bowl of egg soup.
The meal was almost over and the children's table next door had also left.
The meal is over after this bowl of soup, sir.
Yunmao took the initiative to mention that he would come to pick up the children to go to the Children's Palace tomorrow morning.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Brother Yun. I'll take the train back early tomorrow morning. I've been here for half a month, and it's time to go back." Gu Lixia handed over the tea they had selected and helped them to the car.
After watching the two cars drive away, Gu Lixia turned to look at the family around her and said, "Let's go back."
Close the door, go inside, and close the door.
"Mom, are you going home? How long will you be away?" Huai Xu pulled his mother's sleeve and followed her upstairs.
"Yes, Mom still has work to do. I'll go back and finish the accumulated work, check on the newly built bridge, and see how the geese at home are doing and whether Uncle Lin is feeding them well."
"Can't you bring it over here?"
"Sure, bring it over next time. Come, take off your clothes, clean yourself up and go to bed."
After taking care of the child, the couple returned to their room and entered the space.
Lie together on the sofa and enjoy the time that belongs only to the couple.
After resting enough, Gu Lixia went to wash up and prepare for bed.
Jiang Wen watched a video tutorial on how to convert a bicycle into a tricycle.
When I finished washing up and went back home, sure enough, my wife was already asleep.
The night light was on in the bedroom, and I could see the fuzz on my wife's face. Her cheeks were rosy from sleeping. When I pinched them, they were no different from Huaishu's.
Jiang Wen also lay down and fell asleep.
The system observed for a long time and thought that this person would wake up and then...
When Gu Lixia was awakened by the system, the others had not woken up yet. She reached out and touched the warm chest and abdominal muscles.
Jiang Wen also woke up quickly and looked at his wife lying on top of him. "Did you wake up on your own?"
"Yes, I have something on my mind and can't sleep." As expected, a woman who says one thing and means another.
"So what should we do now?"
How could Gu Lixia not understand Jiang Wen's meaning? Since they were about to part, they might as well talk. "I'll be back soon, probably around next week. You study hard, take care of the kids at home, and take care of yourself."
"Yesterday Huai Xu asked me if I could bring some geese. I'm going to bring them all over. I'll deal with the ones that don't lay eggs and bring the rest here. I won't feed them at home. I won't be planting any vegetables this year. I'll just plant potatoes and sweet potatoes, and I won't be planting any corn either."
"Xiu'er and the children are not here, and Jiang Han rarely goes home. He should go back to get some things." Jiang Wen naturally thought of Gu Lixia going back to live and eat alone. Fortunately, Gu Lixia had her own space.
"I know. When everyone is here, I don't feel that the room is too big. But when everyone is gone, it feels empty." Gu Lixia also sighed.
"Get up."
"it is good."
The two people got up, changed clothes and drank milk.
Leaving the space and going downstairs, Gu Lixia washed the rice and cooked porridge in the rice cooker.
Jiang Wenhe made pancakes with batter.
Gu Lixia didn't bring much with her when she went back, just her schoolbag, which contained her work ID and letter of introduction.
Make a meal.
The couple went out, took the bus, and was sent to the station. Gu Lixia bought a ticket and boarded the train.
After watching the train disappear, Jiang Wen turned around and took the bus back.
"Dad is back and Mom is gone?"
"Well, hurry up and eat."
