Chapter 275
Lamb stewed with radish.
Chicken stew with mushrooms.
Fried bacon and mushrooms.
Stir-fried potatoes with bacon.
Braised tofu with eggs.
Stir-fried cabbage, shredded potatoes in vinegar, stir-fried winter melon, egg and tofu soup.
There are eight dishes and one soup, steamed buns and rice, sugar cakes, fried melon seeds and peanuts, some dried fruits, and steamed cakes.
It's rich and grand, and the key is setting up two tables.
Waiting next door were Political Commissar Huang and his wife, Battalion Commander Liu and his wife, Chief Fang and his wife, Deputy Captain Lin and his wife, and Zhang Shaohua, as well as three other comrades who had been invited to come. When they saw two tables filled with I think Zhou Huainan and his wife are so capable.
There were men at one table, women and children at the other. Except for Li Minghao, his five children, and Luo Wanyi, who didn't drool over the food, everyone else couldn't help but swallow.
This meal is rich in oil, but it doesn't just use a little oil. Of course, Luo Wanyi doesn't use a lot of oil. The main oil used for cooking is the chicken oil spooned from the chicken soup. The cooking is fragrant, delicious and fuel-efficient.
Anyway, no one had such a sumptuous meal during the Chinese New Year a few days ago.Several family members felt that Luo Wanyi was too generous, but because she was not a stingy person, the family members had a good impression of her.
"These are chickens raised at home. Some of the pork was distributed by the production team, and some were bought by me and the production team. His father said he would come to pick us up after the New Year to join the army, so I quickly got ready."
"I also bought the fish during the big market. No tickets are required, so I smoked it first. It's also useful for treating guests. Then, I prepared mutton and eggs. When the old man heard that we were coming, he was worried that we wouldn't have enough food here. It’s easy to buy, but besides spending money, you also need tickets, so I and my aunt prepared some more for us.”
After hearing the words of praise from these sisters-in-law, Luo Wanyi quickly explained shyly.
In fact, it’s not as good as they say? !It's just a matter of being prepared in advance.
If it were them, if they had money, would they still be afraid of not being able to exchange for anything in the production team? !
It's just a matter of willingness and reluctance.
Political Commissar Huang's daughter-in-law's surname was He. She nodded as she listened. When she first came to join the army, she tried her best to change in the production team, but at that time she was reluctant to spend as much money as Luo Wanyi did. .
Luo Wanyi, the daughter-in-law of this week's group leader, seems to be a very willing person at first glance. Looking at the five children raised by her family, none of them gorge themselves on food like the children from Liu Ying's family and Fang Gu's family nearby. , I didn’t stare at the food, I ate slowly and took care of my younger brothers and sisters. From this look, I knew that my life at home was definitely not bad.
To treat someone who is not their biological child so well, Captain Zhou and his wife have to say that they are both good people.
The daughter-in-law that Captain Zhou married is so grand. She is so grand.The women chatted while eating. When they talked about the children's studies, they learned that brothers Li Minghao and Zhang Baisheng were already in the third grade of elementary school and would be in the fourth grade next fall.
Not to mention Sister He, the wife of the political commissar, but also the wife of Battalion Commander Liu, the wife of the head of the unit, and the wife of Deputy Commander Lin couldn't help but be shocked.
How old are these two children? !Why are you in the third grade of elementary school? !
Li Minghao is only eight years old, right? !He is only nine years old at most. How old is Zhang Baisheng? !Even though he is one year younger than Li Minghao, he is only about seven years old. Some people at this age have just entered elementary school, and some have not yet entered elementary school.
Tsk tsk tsk, how did the leader’s wife teach her children this week? !
The women and children ate quickly and finished their meals quickly. Several women helped wash the dishes and move the tables, while the men were still drinking and talking.
After dinner, Li Minghao, Zhang Baisheng, their brothers and sisters played for a long time with several brothers and sisters who came to the house for dinner, and then dispersed.
After the children had washed up and gone to bed, the men began to leave. Everyone was satisfied after having had enough wine and food.
Captain Zhou and his wife are really very generous. As far as family members like them are concerned, no one is as rich and thoughtful as Captain Zhou's house.
After sending away the guests, Zhou Huainan refused to let Luo Wanyi clean up and asked her to have a good rest. He could do this work himself.Besides, his wife has been tired for a long day today, and tomorrow she will invite those little bastards to the house for dinner, and she will have to work all day long.
Luo Wanyi didn't argue with him. She was indeed very tired today. Fortunately, it wasn't when her aunt was visiting, otherwise the treat would have been delayed for a few days.
Fortunately, what made her relaxed was that the meat had been prepared in advance. All she had to do was wash, cut, and chop. It didn't take much effort. After all, the meat was semi-finished.
The next day, everyone in the Family Court knew about the treat at Captain Zhou's house. They also heard a lot of praises given to Luo Wanyi by the daughter-in-law of Fanggu Chief, Liu Yingchang's wife, and Deputy Chief Lin's daughter-in-law. Everyone spoke highly of her. I am even more curious.
The people who came to the house for dinner today were all ordinary soldiers, and Luo Wanyi also prepared hard dishes.
Stewed mutton, stir-fried chicken with mushrooms and fungus, braised bacon with potatoes, braised fish with tofu, and then, she even extravagantly fried thirty eggs.
Not only that, Zhou Huainan also bought some meat dishes from the canteen to add to the meal. The staple food was steamed buns and rice.
Add some vinegared cabbage, stir-fried spicy potato shreds, sour radish, steamed cakes, sugar cookies, and dried fruits. Except that there is no fruit, it is basically no different from modern New Year dishes.
If it weren't for the fact that this place was a little far from the sea, Luo Wanyi thought that boiled shrimps, stir-fried spicy shrimps and crabs, steamed fish, and boiled various snails would all be delicious.
However, I heard that there is one in Beijing, but it is still dozens of kilometers away, so it is not convenient to get in and out without a car.
The soldiers never expected that the regiment leader's sister-in-law would prepare such a sumptuous meal for them. They all immediately felt that they were valued and respected. When they saw Luo Wanyi, who greeted them with a smile and enthusiasm, they were really grateful to her. It is love and respect from the heart.
In order to let these comrades eat and drink well, Luo Wanyi asked Zhou Huainan to put two tables together, and then borrowed some stools so that everyone could sit together.
She and her five children ate on the desk in the room. The desk was not small either. Two of them put together were not much smaller than a dining table.
This time, Zhang Shaohua was also called. The comrades only ate until eight o'clock and then all left. In addition to going back to wash and rest on time, it was not easy to disturb Luo Wanyi and the children's rest.
Luo Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief after finally treating the guests, and felt much more comfortable.She had heard that these comrades came to help in this small yard during their breaks, and she felt bad if she did not repay them.If she wasn't worried about going too far, she would definitely cook more than just this.
