Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

night.

Xia Weiwei locked the door and lay down on the made-up Simmons bed.

The pillows and bed were soft and comfortable, even more so than her bed at home in Jinling.

Although Xia Weiwei was somewhat tired, her mind was extremely excited, and she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

From time to time, images of this future world would flash through her mind.

And the incredible technological products she saw.

The sense of awe was many times greater than that felt by people from remote mountain villages when they come to big cities.

As she was thinking, Xia Weiwei suddenly found the phone that Ma Hongwei had bought for her and opened the photo album.

There were several photos taken in quick succession, which were pictures of her and Ma Hongwei together.

In the photo, she looks dazed, while Ma Hongwei makes all sorts of funny faces.

"Pfft!"

Xia Weiwei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She couldn't see Ma Hongwei's face when the photo was taken, but she can now.

In addition to the photos, there was also a video filmed in the mall.

After clicking on it, there was a burst of noise, all from people shopping in the mall.

Through the video, Xia Weiwei once again saw the magnificent and bustling shopping mall.

"Weiwei, wave!"

Soon, Ma Hongwei's voice came from inside, along with a picture of her waving.

"Since this phone can shoot videos, why don't I shoot some more and show them to the leaders in another timeline!"

Xia Weiwei thought to herself, "If they knew that my efforts hadn't been in vain, they would be so happy!"

She still has more than a day before she can go back, and in that time she can film a lot of things!

Xia Weiwei was lost in thought like this, and before she knew how long it had been, she finally fell asleep.

……

The next day.

Ma Hongwei came out of the bedroom and saw Xia Weiwei taking pictures everywhere with her phone.

"You're awake!"

Hearing the noise, Xia Weiwei said, "I'm sorry, I noticed you don't have any firewood and don't know how to use your future fire, so I didn't make you breakfast!"

"It's okay, I'll do it later!"

Ma Hongwei looked at the other person and asked, "What's this?"

"I want to film more of the future, so my comrades can see it!"

Xia Weiwei asked, "Can we film this?"

"We can take pictures!"

Ma Hongwei nodded: "Take pictures freely. In our time, you can encounter people taking photos and videos everywhere."

"That's good!"

Xia Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

Ma Hongwei went to the restroom and washed up. He then said to Xia Weiwei, "Sorry, I don't think I prepared a water cup and toothbrush for you yesterday!"

He took an unused pink plastic teacup, disassembled a new toothbrush, and handed it to the other person along with a new tube of Yunnan Baiyao toothpaste.

"Thanks!"

Xia Weiwei said, "Speaking of which, after I arrived in northern Shaanxi, I never used toothpaste; instead, I used tooth powder."

In 1911, Fengtian produced the Locomotive brand tooth powder.

By 1922, Samsung brand toothpaste was produced.

This is also the first toothpaste in China.

"Then you go wash up, I'll go cook!"

Ma Hongwei took five eggs and three cherry tomatoes from the refrigerator in the living room and went to the kitchen in the east room.

Children from poor families learn to be independent early. He learned to cook from a young age, but he could only cook the food until it was done; he couldn't say whether it tasted good or not.

As I grew up, I learned to cook by following online videos, and the taste was much better than before.

He peeled three scallions, cut off only the white part, halved them, and began to shred them.

Chop the tomatoes into small cubes and put them in a bowl for later use. Beat five eggs.

Xia Weiwei came into the kitchen as soon as the wok was placed on the stove.

She asked Ma Hongwei, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"No need, I can do it myself."

As Ma Hongwei spoke, he gently turned the switch, and the flames burst forth with a "whoosh".

"Wow!"

Xia Weiwei asked in surprise, "This fire can come out on its own?"

"This is a natural gas stove. When you open the valve, gas will be released, and at the same time, the ignition device will release an electric spark, which will ignite the natural gas."

As Ma Hongwei spoke, he turned the fire up high and poured oil into the pot.

Xia Weiwei said, "You used so much oil when you cooked. It's enough for all of us medics to have a meal."

"You definitely need to use more oil when frying eggs!"

Ma Hongwei turned on the range hood, and the motor roared as it drew the cooking fumes away.

As the oil heated up, a little smoke rose from the pan. Ma Hongwei poured in the eggs, and the egg mixture quickly solidified under the high temperature, emitting a unique aroma.

After quickly stir-frying for a few seconds, Ma Hongwei turned down the heat and used a spatula to scoop the eggs out.

He continued to add oil to the pan, poured in the chopped scallions, and stir-fried them over medium heat.

Once the shredded scallions are fried until golden brown and a rich aroma of scallions is released, add the diced tomatoes and stir-fry until they become mushy.

Ma Hongwei picked up the soy sauce and poured it along the edge of the wok. It reacted immediately with the hot wok, producing a savory aroma.

"It smells so good!"

Xia Weiwei said with a look of surprise, "I didn't expect you could cook. In our time, men basically didn't cook."

She didn't know how to cook before, and only learned after she went to northern Shaanxi.

Ma Hongwei added hot water to the pot and explained, "My father passed away early, and my mother had to work to support me, so my sister and I usually do the cooking. You'll get the hang of it after a few tries!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know, I reminded you of something sad."

Xia Weiwei quickly apologized, thinking to herself, "No wonder I didn't see their parents; I should have realized it sooner."

Ma Hongwei shook his head and said, "This has been going on for a long time, we're used to it."

Soon, the water in the pot boiled, and Ma Hongwei took a packet of wet noodles and put them into the pot.

Ma Hongwei said, "We'll just have a light breakfast, and then I'll treat you to a big meal at noon and in the evening."

"Five eggs for two people is already quite a luxury, and there are also white noodles. There's really no need to waste money treating me."

Xia Weiwei quickly waved her hand.

She can't find the food she's eating now in northern Shaanxi and the Taihang Mountains.

Even when they eat noodles there, they use the darker kind, not this kind of "refined noodles".

Even in the city, they couldn't bear to eat "refined noodles" every day.

A few minutes later, the noodles were cooked and had absorbed most of the broth from the pot.

Ma Hongwei tasted it and then added a little salt and MSG.

He turned off the heat, found two clean bowls, and ladled out the cooked stir-fried noodles.

"You eat first, I'll go get something!"

As Ma Hongwei spoke, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative in front and picked up two braised chicken legs, a packet of pickled chicken feet, a few sausages and corn sausages.

"Hongwei, your noodles are so delicious!"

Seeing Ma Hongwei return, Xia Weiwei smiled and praised him.

She had thought that the other party could only cook it until it was cooked through, but she didn't expect it to be so delicious.

It tastes just like what a restaurant chef would make.

"hey-hey!"

Ma Hongwei laughed and said, "I learned this from Teacher Sui's videos. He is a disciple of the master chef of state banquets. The first state banquet at the founding ceremony was prepared by his master and his classmate."
