Chapter 21 Treating you to dinner
"Dinner is ready. Go wash your hands and eat!" Xia Qi said, then turned to the kitchen and brought Xia Chan dinner, including mushroom chicken soup, egg custard and fried sweet potato tips.
After all, the brothers are locals in the era and are reluctant to use any seasonings, so the dishes they cook are quite light. They are not as heavy in oil and salt as Xia Chan's, but they are suitable for Xia Chan's current stage of health care.
Starting from the next day, Xia Qi went to work in the fields to earn work points, but her four brothers took turns coming back to work, so Xia Chan didn't have to worry about anything at home. Xia Chan just had a good rest and read a book when she felt bored.
Xia Chan felt that her health was fine, so after her brothers left for work, she went to the creek to continue her previous operations, catching small fish and picking wild celery. She planned to send Su Yu twenty dollars after the autumn harvest was over. Go over and let her share a portion with the doctors and nurses in the hospital.
Because one of her brothers would come back early to make lunch, Xia Chan asked him to rush home before going home and put all his things in the luxurious suite as if he had never left the house.
After it got dark, the children from the captain's family and Aunt Qin's family who touched snails and picked wild celery brought over wild celery and snails. Xia Chan spread the plastic sheet on the ground, "You separate the things and pour them here. I will I’ll register it for you, and after a few days when I’ve accumulated enough, I’ll go to the city to help you exchange things.”
"Thank you, Sister Xiaochan." Several half-year-old children poured wild celery and snails onto the plastic sheet.
After they left, Xia Chan put the plastic sheets into the hotel suite, registered their names, weighed the snails and wild celery, and then wrote it down after the name, so that it was clear at a glance and there would be no mistakes. I won't treat them badly.
There is no child who doesn't like to eat sweets, so Xia Chan decided to give them sweet fruit candies for the first time, letting them know that these things can really be exchanged for something, they will be more active, and Xia Chan will be more able to let go in the future. Get started.
On this day, when Xia Chan was catching small fish in the stream, he caught a glimpse of a slender and strong figure appearing on the shore out of the corner of his eye, so he looked up directly, but the distance was a little far away and he couldn't see clearly.
"Comrade Xia Chan, you went into the water so early, are you in good health?" During the autumn harvest season, the river water is very cold in the morning, and the lesbian should be kept warm. It is not good for her health to go into the water like this.
"Xiao...Captain Xiao?" Xia Chan was startled when she heard a familiar voice and fell into the creek.
Fortunately, she always put things into the hotel suite when she was about to go home, and when she was putting them away, she also looked around. If she grabbed and put them into the hotel suite, Xiao Yunfan's keen mind would Observation will surely reveal her secrets.
Xia Chan was glad in her heart. It seemed that she could not take any chances in the future. She had to be more careful even in a deserted place.
When Xiao Yunfan entered the water and was about to pick up Xia Chan, a figure rushed over quickly. Xia Qi took Xia Chan away. The last time Xia Chan fainted outside the military camp and was picked up by him, it was an accident. But now The situation is different. Xia Chan is now wet and being hugged by Xiao Yunfan. Doesn't she want to marry him?
Xia Qi would never allow it.
Xiao Yunfan saw Xia Qi leaving with Xiao Chan in her arms, not even caring about the small fish in the basket and the wild celery on the shore, so he picked up two baskets and followed. Seeing that the brother and sister had such a good relationship, Xiao Yunfan felt inexplicably unhappy. Comfortable.
As soon as Xia Qi arrived home, she heard a knock on the door. Xia Qi opened the courtyard door and felt a little uncomfortable when she saw it was Xiao Yunfan.
Is this Xiao Yunfan entangled with Xia Chan?
Xia Qi took the basket and said, "Thank you, Captain Xiao. Captain Xiao, please come in and have a cup of tea!"
"Yeah." Xiao Yunfan nodded and walked into the yard.
Xia Qi cursed in her heart. He was just being polite. He didn't expect Xiao Yunfan to be quite good at climbing along the pole. However, he still invited Xiao Yunfan to sit down in the main room, poured him a cup of hot tea, and added some tea leaves to it. It is wild tea leaves that they picked in the mountains themselves.
Xia Chan quickly took a shower and changed clothes and came out. She wiped her hair with a dry towel as she walked. When she came to the door of the main room, she saw Xiao Yunfan sitting inside. She was a little surprised. When she saw the small fish and wild celery in the basket, Only then did he react.
When Xiao Yunfan saw the girl standing in front of the door, as delicate and beautiful as a hibiscus, he felt that the blood in his body was about to boil, which made him embarrassed for a moment.
Xia Qi made a bowl of brown sugar ginger tea for Xia Chan, "Xia Chan, drink the ginger tea quickly to get rid of the cold and don't get sick."
Xia Chan finished her brown sugar ginger tea and sat down opposite Xiao Yunfan, "Captain Xiao is on a mission in our team?"
It seems that Xiao Yunfan is just here to deal with matters on the mountain. They don't know whether there are ancient tombs, treasures, or spy transmitters on the mountain. These are not matters that they can interfere with, so she will not inquire about this matter.
Xia Chan didn't know it would be such a coincidence. If she had known that Xiao Yunfan was handling this matter, she would not have handed the money and tickets to Su Yu and asked Su Yu to hand them over on her behalf. Wouldn't it be easier for her to hand them over to Xiao Yunfan herself?
I hope Xiao Yunfan doesn't think of her and Xia Qi as people who are looking for petty gains. They can really afford the hospitalization expenses and food expenses.
"Yes." Xiao Yunfan nodded nervously. He had never been nervous before. No matter how difficult the task was, but facing such a simple and beautiful girl, he was not as nervous as himself, and he didn't know what he should say. What is better.
"Captain Xiao, we brothers and sisters have said that we would treat you to a meal before. I am recuperating at home recently and there is still some food at home. Why don't we treat Commander Xiao to dinner tonight! Commander Xiao, do you think it's okay?"
Xiao Yunfan said yes without even thinking about it. He didn't react until he finished saying it, but since he had already agreed, he naturally couldn't go back on it.
And if they don't eat the food, they will probably continue to struggle with this matter.
So this meal is good to eat.
Seeing that Xiao Yunfan agreed to eat at home, Xia Chan hurried to the kitchen and started preparing ingredients. Xia Qi was not willing to let Xia Chan and Xiao Yunfan be alone, so she did not drive Xia Chan outside. She knew that men have a big appetite and eat a lot, so Xia Qi The portions prepared by Cicada are huge.
When you invite someone to a meal, you must be full!
I soaked a whole strip of bacon, soaked a whole pig sausage, took ten eggs, washed half a basket of wild celery, and picked out a few sweet potatoes from the sweet potato field in the yard.
Their family lives on the hillside and there is not much soil. The soil in the yard is picked up by Xia Chan's parents from other places every spring when planting. Otherwise, the food at home would not be enough. After all, both husband and wife are concerned. They are kind and help people who are more in need than them from time to time.
