A well-behaved girl was deceived while searching for her husband; she married a childless military o

Hearing Qin Yuanzheng say this, Qiao Lanshu felt a little shy, but she was still happy.

Well, the current situation between the two of them is that they are both afraid of running away.

So you need to grab the other person quickly and get the marriage certificate as soon as possible; that's better than anything else.

Qin Yuanzheng turned on the light and asked her, "What do you want to eat? Noodles or steamed buns?"

Qiao Lanshu followed behind him, looking shy like a newlywed bride, and said, "Isn't there any rice? I want to eat rice."

When she lived in Guangzhou, her stepmother disliked her and longed to kick her out of the house every day.

However, her stepmother dared not mistreat her in terms of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation.

As a teacher, she was afraid of tarnishing her reputation.

Therefore, Qiao Lanshu had rice to eat every day, and she was almost never hungry.

But since arriving here, she hasn't eaten rice for several days.

Although noodles are delicious, she still wants to eat rice!

Qin Yuanzheng carried the flour and vegetables to the kitchen. Hearing her say this, he paused for a moment, considered for a few seconds, and then said, "It's too late today. Let's have steamed buns for dinner. I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow and see if they have any Northeast rice."

Nowadays, workers receive a fixed amount of food each month.

An average female worker's food ration, calculated in terms of wheat flour, is about three catties of wheat flour per month.

Of course, this was definitely not enough to eat, so many people were reluctant to exchange it for wheat flour, since they could get a few more kilograms by exchanging it for mixed grains or red flour.

As for pure white rice, it's even rarer, not because the people here don't eat it.

Instead, due to the influence of local climate and geographical conditions, the area mainly grows drought-resistant and high-yield grain crops.

For example, wheat, corn, sorghum, millet, etc.

Therefore, the food served in the factory canteens here is mostly these kinds of things: millet and sweet potato porridge, cornbread, and in difficult times, even unpalatable steel wire noodles made from sorghum dregs.

Rice can only be grown in localized areas with abundant spring water.

However, the area and output are very limited, making it impossible to supply in large quantities, and the supply and marketing cooperatives cannot buy them.

However, Qin Yuanzheng was the regimental commander, so he could use his status to buy some rice, and he could also ask the supply and marketing cooperative when Northeast rice would be available for sale.

If that didn't work, he would ask his comrades in Shanghai to help him send it.

Now that he's married Qiao Lanshu, he's going to cherish her like a treasure. It's just rice, he'll definitely make sure she's well-fed.

While kneading the dough, he said to Qiao Lanshu, "Don't worry, I'll go buy you rice tomorrow."

Qiao Lanshu blushed and nodded, "Thank you."

Qin Yuanzheng rolled up his sleeves and kneaded the dough while staring at her blushing face. He said, "We're husband and wife now, no need to be so polite."

Qiao Lanshu nodded, blushing. She simply found Qin Yuanzheng, who was wearing a vest and standing there kneading dough, very attractive.

Qin Yuanzheng had a very strong and handsome physique. He was tall with broad shoulders. While he was kneading the dough vigorously, he stared at her with his deep eyes and spoke to her. She really couldn't stand it.

Qiao Lanshu stood there and asked him, "What dishes are you making tonight? Let me help."

Qin Yuanzheng didn't actually need her help, but he wanted to spend more time with Qiao Lanshu and talk to her.

After all, the two are about to get married, but they don't know each other very well yet.

So Qin Yuanzheng said, "You peel the potatoes, just two will do."

Qiao Lanshu took the potato, washed it clean in the sink, and then carefully began to peel it.

Qiao Lanshu also does housework at home. She often helps with cooking, so she is quite efficient at her work.

Qin Yuanzheng quickly kneaded the dough.

Because the dough still needed to rise, and he was worried that Qiao Lanshu might get hungry while waiting, he made a small dough ball separately to make noodles for her: "Are you hungry? Why don't you eat some noodles first?"

Qiao Lanshu nodded: "Okay... You can even make noodles? You're really amazing."

Qiao Lanshu watched with starry eyes as he casually flicked his hand, and long, thin noodles appeared.

That's truly amazing.

The way she looked at Qin Yuanzheng was pure admiration.

Qin Yuanzheng: "..."

He was just making noodles, and the girl was looking at him like that. How could he possibly resist?

Qin Yuanzheng told Qiao Lanshu to sit outside. He put all the sunflower seeds, dried biscuits, peanuts, and other snacks he had just bought on a plate on the coffee table and said to her, "Go sit down and have something to eat. I'll make you some noodles."

Qiao Lanshu looked at the plate full of food and knew that Qin Yuanzheng had bought it for her specially, since the room had been empty before.

She took a bite of a cookie, then couldn't resist going to the kitchen door to watch him cook.

Qin Yuanzheng cooked the meat and potatoes together to make a minced meat and potato soup. Then he scooped out the cooked noodles, put them on a plate, and poured the minced meat and potato soup over them.

The noodles were chewy, and the minced meat and potatoes were hot and fragrant. Qiao Lanshu's stomach started growling as soon as she smelled the aroma.

Qin Yuanzheng smiled and glanced at her, saying, "I'll also stir-fry some cabbage with vinegar; you'll definitely love it."

As he spoke, he went back and chopped some cabbage, stir-fried it with vinegar and garlic, and served it. A simple but delicious dinner was ready.

Qin Yuanzheng's cooking skills are quite good. The stir-fried cabbage with vinegar is tender and crisp, with a vinegary aroma, and tastes very refreshing.

Every noodle was coated in a sauce of minced meat and potatoes, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth. Most importantly, Qin Yuanzheng knew she preferred light flavors, so he prepared the dishes in a light and just-right salty way.

Qiao Lanshu was amazed after just one bite.

This is much tastier than what she eats in the cafeteria.

She hadn't had a proper meal in days, but now that she was finally full, she looked at Qin Yuanzheng and sincerely praised him, "Commander Qin, your cooking is delicious, even better than the food in the canteen!"

The people here eat salty food. The air is already dry, and with salty food, Qiao Lanshu did nothing all day but drink water.

Qin Yuanzheng didn't do anything special, just cooked a meal, but the little girl praised him from beginning to end.

After finishing his meal, he went to wash the dishes, and the little girl started praising him again: "Commander Qin, you washed the dishes so clean! You're so efficient. From kneading the dough to finishing the meal and washing the dishes, it only took an hour. You're really amazing!"

Qin Yuanzheng washed the dishes clean and then mopped the floor. The girl said, "Commander Qin, you can mop the floor too! It's so clean! You're amazing!"

Qin Yuanzheng: "..."

Qin Yuanzheng went to boil water, carried the hot water to the bathroom, and helped the little girl wash up. Sure enough, the little girl said again, "Commander Qin, you can carry two buckets of water in one hand, how are you so amazing!"

Qin Yuanzheng couldn't take it anymore. Anyone would find it unbearable if a young girl kept praising how amazing he was all night.

He reached out and gently pressed Xiao Qiao's head, saying, "Wash up while it's still warm, then go to bed."

Then he turned around, came out of the bathroom, and went inside to make the bed for the little girl.

What Qiao Lanshu didn't see was that Commander Qin's ears and neck were completely red.
