Chapter 118: Jealousy Again!

“You look down on me?”

Li Xinyue was a true northerner.

“Don’t underestimate me! My grandmother was born and raised in the north. She grew up eating noodles.”

“Although she had fewer opportunities to eat noodles later, her noodle-making skills are still top-notch.”

“Braised noodles, fried noodles, fried noodles, sliced ​​noodles, pulled noodles, I have learned everything!”

What?

His wife was a noodle master?

Chen Mingchuan’s heart blossomed with joy. “Then let’s have braised noodles. I’ll knead the dough! You women have less strength, you won’t be able to knead it properly!”

This man, so patriarchal!

Everything is “women can’t do it”!

Women can give birth, can you men?

Li Xinyue didn’t bother arguing. They were about to enter the kitchen when someone arrived.

“Report, Captain, the instructor asked you to go back to the camp for lunch. One of your old comrades from the north came.”

An old comrade from the north?

Chen Mingchuan had many comrades, he didn’t know who it was.

“Why don’t you come with me to the camp for lunch?”

She should go with him?

Li Xinyue didn’t want to go.

A bunch of soldiers, and she didn’t know many of them. She wouldn’t want to be a monkey in a zoo.

“No need, we still have the steamed buns from this morning, I’ll fry them later.”

They were coarse grain steamed buns from the morning, cold and hard, how could they be delicious?

“Don’t eat them, I’ll have Liu Qiang send you some food later.”

“I’m leaving, don’t eat cold food.”

If he said not to eat, then she wouldn’t. Those coarse grain steamed buns were really not that good, Li Xinyue didn’t want to torture herself.

Ten minutes later, Liu Qiang delivered the food.

“Sister-in-law, there’s a guest at the camp today, the captain asked me to bring you some special dishes. Eat quickly.”

The special dishes were delicious, Li Xinyue finished everything, including the food and rice, practicing the “clean plate” action.

She was too full to sleep, so she took out some wool and started knitting.

When Chen Mingchuan came back, she was asleep on the sofa. She didn’t know how long she had been asleep, but she was woken up by the sound of the door opening.

“Go back to sleep.”

Li Xinyue sat up. “I’m fine now. Do you want to go take a nap?”

“No need, I didn’t drink much. The clothes in the closet are almost dry, I’ll organize them this afternoon.”

“No, no, let them air out for a few more days, otherwise they’ll be too damp.”

“I’ll make some more drying racks this afternoon, so it will be easier to dry things.”

More?

Chen Mingchuan opened his mouth, looking at Li Xinyue. “Not enough?”

Li Xinyue nodded. “Not enough, it’s more convenient to have more.”

“I also want to install two bamboo poles below the drying racks, so that if it rains, we can still air the herbs there.”

Since she wanted it, he would start working immediately. It wasn’t something that couldn’t be done.

Chen Mingchuan nodded. “Okay, let’s go take a look and see how to make them, I’ll go get some wood.”

They went to the backyard, where the red brick floor was clean and beautiful.

Li Xinyue pointed to a few places, explaining her ideas, then Chen Mingchuan went out.

He came back quickly.

But behind him were a few other people, carrying things, some lifting, some carrying…

Li Xinyue: “…”

Seeing her stunned, Chen Mingchuan explained. “These are old steel frames, the repair shop didn’t want them anymore. It’s better to use these, they’re not afraid of rain.”

“By the way, Xiao Nan said he wants to come over for dinner tonight. He likes noodles.”

Okay.

People helped so much, it’s only right to give them a bowl of noodles!

It was hot, and the soldiers were helping her work. Li Xinyue felt embarrassed, so she went to the military service station and bought an ice pop for each of them.

After brewing the tea, she put it in the well water to chill and gave it to them to drink.

“I say, Captain Chen, what are you guys doing?”

“Even taking a nap is not peaceful. This family courtyard is not just for your family, is it?”

“Oh, you are indeed an official. This backyard is well-organized, you have people and things here!”

Auntie Sun stood at the back door, looking at the courtyard, her face full of envy.

“Auntie Sun, do you want your house to be like this?”

“If you want it, as long as you are willing to pay, I guarantee it will be exactly like mine in two days.”

“By the way, how many people do you need to help? I’ll get them.”

“Xiao Liu, go to the barracks department and find Director Lu, tell him I need him to send people to help Technician Sun’s family fix the backyard.”

“For the material cost, just deduct it directly from the accounting department later!”

Chen Mingchuan’s face turned black.

He made a mistake when choosing the courtyard. He shouldn’t have chosen the one next to Technician Sun’s house!

Xiao Liu immediately responded, “Yes,” and turned to leave.

Auntie Sun was terrified. She jumped and shouted, rushing out of her own backyard like crazy to stop Xiao Liu.

“No, no, my backyard doesn’t need fixing, I want to plant vegetables in my backyard!”

“Xiao Liu, come back, Xiao Liu, come back!”

Seeing the old lady so anxious, Li Xinyue laughed.

“You are still so amazing!”

“To deal with such a thick-skinned person, you have to hit her weak spot!”

Technician Sun is a skilled person with a sharp mind, but his old mother is really dragging him down.

Otherwise, he could have been promoted to a senior technician last year.

Chen Mingchuan breathed a sigh of relief: “Don’t mind her, you will be at a disadvantage dealing with such an old woman.”

She will be at a disadvantage?

Li Xinyue twitched her face: In his eyes, she is a little lamb?

“I don’t want to argue with her. If she insists on provoking me, I won’t be polite. Don’t treat me like a little lamb, I don’t grow up eating grass!”

Chen Mingchuan: “…”

Okay, he was wrong!

She’s the one who dared to confront the entire Chen family!

“Get me a bowl of water to drink.”

“Okay!”

After two hours of banging and clanging, two long drying platforms were added to the backyard.

Adding them to the ones made yesterday, there are now four rows. Li Xinyue is truly satisfied.

“It’s great!”

Seeing her smiling with her eyes, Chen Mingchuan felt it was worth it: “You like it that much?”

Li Xinyue nodded repeatedly: “I’m extremely satisfied! I’ll make you bean curd with pork noodles tonight, I bought half a pound of meat just now.”

Chen Mingchuan was a little surprised: “They still sell meat in the afternoon?”

Li Xinyue nodded: “Yes, not much, they put it in the ice cream box.”

Chen Mingchuan loves noodles, and his interest immediately rose: “I’ll knead the dough!”

“Okay.”

The dough is kneaded harder and tougher, Li Xinyue doesn’t fight back.

The flour is wheat flour, although the color is a bit yellowish, but it has a fresh fragrance.

“This is new wheat flour ground this year, very fragrant, it must be delicious.”

Chen Mingchuan nodded: “Yeah, the army’s food is all top-grade grain, the new flour tastes good.”

“Xiao Nan loves noodles, let’s make more today.”

Xiao Nan is this man’s iron brother!

The book writes that Xiao Nan helped Chen Mingchuan overturn the case, destroyed the spy organization, and interrogated their mastermind.

It’s rare to find someone who is truly worthy of your trust. With a good brother like Xiao Nan, you have to cherish the relationship.

“No problem, I can’t actually eat much, I’ll eat one less ounce of rice every meal from now on.”

What does that mean?

Is she worried about not having enough food?

“No, you’re too thin, you need to eat more.”

“If there isn’t enough food, it’s okay, I’ll find someone to trade some food stamps.”

Li Xinyue: “…”

Is she worried about not having enough food?

She doesn’t want to be too fat, okay!
