Chapter 15
The house has two rooms and a main room.
He Nanfeng had already changed the bed in the master bedroom. All he had to do was put on the bedding and sheets and people could sleep on it.
Judging from the visual area, the master bedroom is more than 20 square meters, which can fit a large wardrobe and there is more than enough space for a desk under the windowsill.
Outside the master bedroom is the main room, about fifteen square meters, with a Western table in the center and an incandescent lamp overhead.
To the right of the master bedroom is a second bedroom with slightly smaller windows, only about ten square meters.
There were some wooden boards and miscellaneous items piled up inside, which could be cleaned up later and made into a shower room.
Backyard, oh no, there is no backyard, there is a suspended ravine behind it.
It is about one meter high from the canal below, which shows that when this courtyard was built, the foundation was dug deep and the house foundation was raised high.
After closing the back door, Su Wan continued to explore the house.
After leaving the main hall, there is a small room on the left. After pushing the door open, it was the kitchen as expected.
The first thing that caught my eye was the almost new cabinets, followed by the pot lid, iron pot, and wok covering the stove.
Quite primitive, an earthen stove.
The rice cooked on this stove has crusty texture, which is a favorite for people with good teeth.
Her specialty is beef rice crust, which is made by chopping fresh beef and cooking it over rice crust…
Beef Rice Crust

The chef is right, if you learn cooking skills well, you can have a good meal anywhere!
She just put the seasonings in her suitcase and bought a kitchen knife, and she was done.
“You get familiar with the environment at home first. I’ll go find a way to exchange some food for you.”
He Nanfeng carried the clean water jar into the kitchen and saw his fiancée hesitating in front of the cupboard. He thought she was worried about having no food to cook.
“Okay, but there’s no need to change the seasoning. I prepared it long ago because I was worried that it would be hard to buy on the island.
It’s in my suitcase. I’ll pack it up later. If you can exchange it for food, we can have lunch at home and let you taste my cooking.”
Su Wan quickly added that she had no food, but her suitcase was fully stocked with seasonings.
There is still a week of cooling off period, and the supply is endless.
Thinking of the saffron in the box, soaking it in water has a very good effect on nourishing the body, so I added:
“It would be best to get a kettle, or a water bottle would be fine.”
“Okay, I’ll be out first. I’ll be back before noon.”
He Nanfeng wrote down everything, then handed the key to his fiancée, telling her to close the door and wait for him to come back.
Su Wan agreed repeatedly, but to be honest, this seaside village is next to the army, who in the village would dare to take advantage of the military’s family?
Although she thought so in her heart, she still locked the door.
The coconut trees in the yard are really tall.
If you want to eat coconuts, do you have to climb up?
Or use a bamboo pole or something to poke it?
This coconut looks small, but it should actually be quite large.
If it falls and hits something, your head will be cracked, right?
“Crack~”
Suddenly, she stepped on something.
I looked down and saw a snail shell as big as a palm!
Wow, is it such a big snail?
Fortunately, it was an empty shell, not alive.
Once there is one, there will be two. Su Wan looked around the yard and found several snail shells of different sizes in the corners of the wall.
Wow, what a big snail. Snails basically appear at night. It seems that the yard will be very lively at night.
Since the snail is so big, snakes, insects, rats and ants should also be there.
Faced with all these cute little creatures that scare girls, Su Wan is only very afraid of snakes.
The reason is simple. I was bitten by a snake when I was a child. Since then, I have been afraid of ropes for ten years.
Snakes are most afraid of realgar, so you have to get some realgar powder and sprinkle it in the yard, and don’t leave out any corners or crevices!
When He Nanfeng comes back, it shouldn’t be too much for her to make a small request, right?
……
Here, He Nanfeng used the national food coupons he had prepared in advance to exchange food with the villagers.
If it were ordinary food coupons, the villagers might not be willing to exchange them for food.
But there is no way, Captain He is using national food coupons!
Although they are on the island, they have more or less relatives and friends on the land outside the island.
There are countless cities and towns on land, but the rural land is not as fertile as the land on their islands and is very barren.
Ordinary food coupons can only be used to purchase food at local supply and marketing cooperatives, but national food coupons are different. They can be used in any town!
This thing is in short supply, and they are happy to exchange it if they have enough food.
In this way, He Nanfeng wandered around the village and soon exchanged large and small bags for a lot of food.
Oh, by the way, in addition to food, there is also the kettle that my fiancée wanted.
After some inquiries, I exchanged an oil coupon and five dollars for an unused kettle at an old lady’s house.
“Thank you, fellow villager~”
“You’re welcome, Captain He. Don’t worry, this kettle was sent by my son from the mainland. Our stove is in good condition and I couldn’t bear to use it. I guarantee it’s new.”
The old lady smiled sincerely, but felt a little guilty for accepting an oil coupon and five dollars, so she hurried back home and dragged out a jackfruit weighing twenty pounds from the house and handed it over.
“Captain He, your partner has come to the island and is getting married soon. This pot requires your oil coupons and money coupons. It’s not worth it. This jackfruit is from our own tree. It’s not worth much. Just take it back and let your partner try it.”
“Okay, thank you.”
He Nanfeng saw that the old lady looked very reserved, and knew that if he didn’t accept it, the old lady would be restless, so he smiled and accepted the other party’s kindness.
“Wait until my marriage application is approved, and we get married. We’ll have a few tables of wedding banquet in the village. Then Auntie can bring her grandchildren to enjoy the banquet and grab some wedding candy.”
“Oh, okay, okay, this is a happy event, we will definitely go over and help.”
The old lady nodded and smiled sincerely from the bottom of her heart.
He Nanfeng glanced at the time on the clock on his wrist. It was getting late, so he had to hurry up and go to the village to exchange fish and seafood for some seafood before going back.
A twenty-pound jackfruit was easily thrown onto the shoulder.
After saying goodbye to the old lady, He Nanfeng left here at a brisk pace…
A little boy squatting on the ground playing with shells and sniffing his nose suddenly dropped the shells, stood up, and boasted to his grandmother:
“Grandma, I want to be a soldier when I grow up.”
“Ah? My dear grandson, why do you want to join the army?”
The old lady closed the gate and looked at her grandson in confusion.
The sun hasn’t risen from the west today, and my little fat boy actually said he wants to join the army?
The little boy wiped his nose and explained seriously:
“Hey, that soldier just threw the heavy jackfruit onto his shoulders with just a light throw. He’s so amazing!”
When I grow up, I want to be a soldier too, so that I can help you and grandpa carry sacks and transport jackfruits.”
When the old lady heard her grandson’s previous words, she didn’t say anything and just smiled knowingly.
But when she heard the last sentence of her grandson’s words, her eyes reddened. My dear grandson…
