Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 56 Braised Pork with Dried Plum Vegetables

"Aunt Tang, my mother asked me to bring you a bowl of pork with pickled mustard greens and preserved vegetables!"

The meat was from the wild boar that Tang Qiuyue had killed before. Although it had been processed by the canteen, there were not many family members on the island, so each family was given one pound of meat.

Tang Qiuyue hadn't finished the kitchen at that time, so naturally she didn't want it.

"It's Yuan Chao! Come in quickly!"

The person who came was Huang Yuanchao, the youngest son of Captain Huang. He had eaten a lot of candies and snacks given by Tang Qiyue in the car and was very close to Tang Qiyue.

Captain Huang's wife, Sun Maisui, is a simple-minded military wife. She probably felt bad for Tang Qiyue bringing food to the children on the way, so she made some delicious food and wanted to send it to her.

Huang Yuanchao is already seven years old. The little guy is very sensible. Although he entered the house, he did not look at the egg pancake that Tang Qiyue placed on the table.

Tang Qiyue asked Huang Yuanchao to sit for a while while she turned over the salted fish she had just thrown into the pot.

"Why don't you keep some to eat?"

Tang Qiyue was always making small talk; she was very patient with children.

Huang Yuanchao sniffed and wiped the saliva. Although he felt that the braised pork with pickled mustard greens was very fragrant, the difference was huge compared to the pancakes on Tang Qiyue's table.

"We've already finished eating. My mother said Uncle Zhan was on a mission. When I went to the cafeteria to buy steamed buns today, I didn't see Aunt Tang. I was afraid that you must not have cooked!"

The little guy tried hard to explain everything that needed to be explained, but he still didn't grasp the key points. It was probably because he didn't remember anything that Sun Maisui told him.

"Your mother is amazing, I really did forget about dinner time!"

The salted fish had been fried until golden brown. Tang Qiyue did not put out the fire in the stove, but instead filled a kettle with water and placed it in the stove. Then she called Huang Yuanchao into the house.

There is no dining table in the kitchen, so we still need to go into the main house to eat.

Tang Qiyue thought this was very inconvenient, so she planned to put a dining table in the kitchen, or even just a table in the yard. She could eat in the yard during the day, and in the kitchen when it rained and the weather was bad, to avoid the trouble of carrying food back and forth.

Huang Yuanchao saw that Tang Qiyue couldn't carry so many things in her hands, so he sensibly helped to bring the food to the main house.

Maybe the adults have told the little one to go home after putting down his things.

Tang Qiyue held Huang Yuanchao's shoulder and said, "Auntie Tang feels lonely eating alone. Can Yuanchao eat with Auntie Tang?"

Huang Yuanchao was greedy to begin with, and when he heard Tang Qiyue's request, he immediately patted his chest and said righteously: "Aunt Tang, don't worry, I will definitely not let you eat alone!"

Tang Qiuyue was happy and asked him to go to the yard to wash his hands.

When the two of them sat down, Tang Qiyue handed a pancake to Huang Yuanchao and said, "Let me try the braised pork belly your mother made, and how about you try the pancakes Aunt Tang made?"

Huang Yuanchao's saliva was about to come out, so he had no time to speak or answer. He nodded vigorously and took a bite of the fragrant egg pancake.

The child was still growing, and he probably didn't have enough to eat before, so his little mouth was filled with biscuits.

The taste of the fragrant eggs was indeed very tempting, but it was not that amazing when you put it in your mouth. Fortunately, Tang Qiyue’s cooking skills were good, and the pancakes she made were soft and golden. For Huang Yuanchao, who had been eating coarse grains for a long time, this was so delicious that it was beyond his comprehension.

Tang Qiuyue ate a piece of braised pork with preserved vegetables. It might be because the fishy smell of the wild boar meat was not processed well. Although preserved vegetables are considered a strong-flavored dried vegetable, unfortunately there were not enough star anise and rice wine, which resulted in the dish still lacking a lot.

Fortunately, Tang Qiyue also knew that being able to send meat over meant that the other party had put in a lot of effort, so she still praised it a few times. Huang Yuanchao was also very happy to hear his mother's cooking praised for being delicious.

The two of them finished all the food. Huang Yuanchao held his stomach and felt a little embarrassed. He had never felt so embarrassed before.

Tang Qiyue didn't laugh at him, and pretended not to see his embarrassing hiccups.

I washed the bowl that Huang Yuanchao had given me for the braised pork with pickled mustard greens. Since there was no good dish to give as a return gift at home, I put a bag of peach cakes in the bowl. This thing is durable and can be considered a good return gift.

"Okay, Aunt Tang is busy, so I won't keep you here. Go back and thank your mother for me!"

Huang Yuanchao also wanted to go back and show off, so he ran away with the bowl in his arms.

Tang Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief when the little guest left.

Fortunately, she has always been very careful. Even when Zhan Zeye was not at home, she did not put too many ultra-modern things in the house, and the things she had exchanged before could all be stored.

After Huang Yuanchao, the little guy, showed up without knocking, Tang Qiyue reminded herself that she should get used to putting away used things in time to avoid revealing any flaws.

You have to know that her identity is problematic to begin with. If someone finds something on her that brings trouble to Zhan Zeye, she is not sure whether Zhan Zeye will still protect her.

This incident did not affect Tang Qiyue's mood too much. She was not worried about the fragrant eggs. After all, there were many seabirds nesting on the island, and the cafeteria would also use seabird eggs to make soup.

There is no flaw. After the fusion of ingredients from two time and space, Tang Qiyue became even more interested in the exchange.

Although survival in the apocalyptic plane is difficult, there are so many good things, and she still wants to go to the sea. Oxygen equipment is what she wants to exchange the most, but she doesn't have enough points.

Thinking that she must go to the beach today, if she is lucky enough to catch a sea snake, wouldn’t that be enough for her to exchange for it?
She was planning to go to the beach later, but the appearance of Coral interrupted her plans.

"Sister Qiyue, the fisherwoman is awake!"

Coral didn't look very happy when she talked about this.

"Then let's go over and take a look!"

Tang Qiyue was also concerned about Yu Niang's physical condition. After all, she was the patient whose wounds he had sutured, so he always had to pay attention to her.

Shanhu shook her head: "The fisherman asked me to come here because she was afraid that you would go over there. Her mother-in-law brought people home, and she was afraid that those people would bump into you!"

Tang Qiyue frowned. She thought the fisherman's husband was an orphan. From the time the accident happened until now, the people in the fishing village could not have been unaware of it, and no one from her husband's family showed up at all.

It was also because Tang Qiyue didn’t know enough about the fishing village.

Although the island is not big, it is not small either. The villagers in the fishing village do not live together. The fisherman's mother-in-law lives in a remote place and got the news late.

Shanhu pulled Tang Qiyue aside and complained: "The fisherwoman's family sold her to the fishing village for money. If she wasn't a diver, her mother-in-law would have sold her again because she couldn't have children!"

Tang Qiyue knows the value of the mermaid, but why can’t the fisherman’s daughter have children?

"The fisherwoman is able to survive this time because of you. Her mother-in-law is particularly unreasonable and will definitely make trouble with you. That's why the fisherwoman asked me to come here to remind you not to go to the fishing village, and it's best not to go fishing. She's afraid that her mother-in-law will block you at the beach!"

Shanhu's reminder did not scare Tang Qiyue. Instead, she wanted to meet a mother-in-law who did not treat her daughter-in-law as a human being!
