Father Lin looked at Wu Jie's hurried away figure and smiled slightly, hiding his merit and fame.

Holding the teapot, he slowly walked home.

On the way, I met Mother Lin who happened to be delivering food, and she said hello: "Go home and eat!"

Mother Lin looked at him suspiciously and said angrily, "There's even one for the second child!"

Father Lin pulled Mother Lin back home, muttering: "Does he still have the nerve to eat? After studying with him for so many years, even Lu Kai can't compare, let alone Xiao Gu! Still eating? Go drink the northwest wind!"

Lin's mother couldn't laugh or cry as he dragged her home. After all, she carried Lin's father on her back and asked Lin Hong to deliver it to Lin Feng. As for Lin Feng, he complained that dinner had turned into a midnight snack.

Mother Lin said that it would be good to eat some.

On Gu Zhiyuan's side, Father Lin didn't hide anything from him either.

The next day, he told him to ask Wu Jie to call the capital and ask someone to help him take a look. If his problem was not a big one, he could think of a way to solve the ingredient problem first.

As long as the ingredient problem is solved, then naturally other problems will not be a problem.

Gu Zhiyuan was naturally grateful.

Father Lin looked at Gu Zhiyuan as if he had something to hide, so he knew there must be a story behind this ingredient issue.

It was not easy to ask more questions. Gu Zhiyuan was not in a high mood, and the situation at the machinery factory was unclear, so we simply asked him to read more books and draw more pictures at home in the past few days, and wait until the news from his side was confirmed.

Gu Zhiyuan naturally agreed.

He had been out for long enough, and even though it was because of Xu Ningyan, the team gave him leave.

But if he doesn't show up again, I'm afraid the brigade will be unable to suppress him.

As soon as he came out of Lin's house, Gu Zhiyuan packed his things and went to the department store to find Xu Ningyan.

The last time she went back, she brought some medicinal materials picked from the mountains by the members of the Unity Brigade, and brought a large basket of plums from the old plum tree in the brigade to the county seat.

The plums on this plum tree are sour and tooth-dropping when they are green. When they are half green and half red, they are sour and a little sweet, giving them a unique taste.

It is really mature when it is completely red and turns purple. That is, it is sweet and slightly sour, appetizing and promoting body fluids.

This was the first batch of ripe ones picked by the brigade. Xu Ningyan was asked to take them to the county town to test the water and see if they could be harvested here and whether they could be sold.

As a result, when we arrived at the county town, before we even reached the department store, we were chased by countless people asking questions.

I heard that the brigade below sold them to the department store. Many people followed Xu Ningyan to the department store and asked them to quickly collect the plums so that they could be put on display for sale.

A large basket of plums was robbed by the people in the department store without them even keeping it.

Now, not only the customers, but also the people in the department store who had tasted one or two were obsessed with it, urging Xu Ningyan to return to the Unity Brigade and bring some big baskets.

Xu Ningyan finally figured it out. At this time, the whole country was in short supply.

Although the countryside is a bit poorer, the food is really richer than in the city.

So as long as it can be eaten and transported to the city, there is nothing unpopular.

After hearing Gu Zhiyuan say that he wanted to go back, Xu Ningyan estimated that the next batch of plums in the brigade would be almost mature, so he agreed happily.

As expected, although Gu Zhiyuan used to live in seclusion, people in the brigade could still see people from time to time.

Suddenly, no one has been seen for more than ten days, and everyone has to ask questions.

Especially after Xu Ningyan also went to the county town, he only came back once every six or seven days, and even the dog was entrusted to Uncle Xie's care.

There was a rumor that Xu Ningyan had a job in the city. It had only been a few days and he rarely returned to the brigade. Will he never come back in the future?

Didn't you see that she even brought her partner Gu Zhiyuan to the city?

The captain and party secretary were also beating in their hearts.

They heard Xu Ningyan say that Gu Zhiyuan was spotted by a leader of the county machinery factory and was taken with him to study.

Although this was not a surprise to them, they had already seen that Gu Zhiyuan was not a creature of the pond.

But if I haven't been in the brigade for a long time, if someone really reports me, they will all suffer.

They can only use Xu Ningyan to help the team generate income to pressure the people in the team, but as time goes by, they feel more and more unsure.

Seeing the two men back at this moment, the captain and party secretary finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I also heard that the plums in their brigade were very popular, so the brigade leader did not bother to ask questions and directly arranged for people to pick plums.

Even if the other members of the Unity Team had other ideas in mind, they had no idea after seeing the money Xu Ningyan got back.

When I returned to the small courtyard, no one had lived in it for a long time, and it was covered with dust.

The two of them cleaned up for a while, took off the sheets and bedding, and Gu Zhiyuan took him directly to the river to wash.

Xu Ningyan tidied up the kitchen and started cooking.

I brought meat with me when I came back this time, as well as vegetables from the private plot. Uncle Xie and the team leader helped with watering. Apart from the fact that the grass was a little deeper, the vegetables were still growing well.

The top flowers of cucumber have thorns. Wash them by the river and eat them raw. They are crisp and a little astringent, which is the most refreshing thing.

The tomatoes were growing beautifully, and the branches were bent under the weight of the heavy fruits. No one had picked them for a long time, and a layer of ripe tomatoes fell on the ground.

This kind of tomato is a variety that Xu Ningyan has only read about in books. When it turns red, the inside is sandy and juicy. When you take a bite, the juice will spurt out far away. It is very delicious.

I picked eggplants and peppers, and pinched a handful of water spinach.

Wash the cucumber, smash it into pieces, add minced garlic, vinegar, and sesame oil and mix it together to make it very refreshing.

Wash the tomatoes, cut them into wedges, place them on a plate, and sprinkle a layer of white sugar on top.

The sweet and sour tomatoes are dipped in white sugar, and you won’t get tired of eating them one by one.

Especially the remaining tomato juice with melted sugar, which is the favorite of children, and they all rush to drink it.

Do not add any oil to the eggplant and pepper. Stir-fry the eggplant and pepper over low heat until they change color and become soft. Then add oil. The color will suddenly become darker, and the oil will make them bright and fragrant.

Water spinach with minced garlic and fried pork with chili.

Xu Ningyan showed off her skills in the kitchen, and the fragrance blew along the wind to the river.

Gu Zhiyuan smelled the smell and sped up the movements of his hands. He brushed it a few times, rubbed the sheets and quilts in his hands a few times, beat them with a mallet a few times, and then threw them into the river to rinse them clean.

Pick it up, wring it out, and bring it back to the small yard to dry.

All in one go!

The dog-legged man came out from nowhere as he smelled the aroma of the food.

A man and a dog stood guard at the door of the kitchen, looking at Xu Ningyan eagerly.

When the vegetables are fried, use a small pot to simmer the rice until it is just right.

The meal was still placed under the camphor tree, and Gu Zhiyuan finally enjoyed Xu Ningyan's cooking after a long absence.

It is said that from frugality to luxury is easy, and from luxury to frugality is difficult.

In the past, Gu Zhiyuan was not picky about food, as long as he was full.

After eating the food cooked by Xu Ningyan, I realized that eating is also a kind of enjoyment.

These days in the county town, what he misses most is the food cooked by Xu Ningyan.

A few home-cooked dishes were not made by the chef, but they unexpectedly suited his taste.

Now that Xu Ningyan's body has slowly recovered, and she doesn't have to work on the ground, she has enough oil and water, and her appetite is not as big as before.

After two bowls of rice, I put down my chopsticks.

Gu Zhiyuan, on the other hand, looked thin. When Xu Ningyan finished eating, he rounded up the remaining food in three strokes.

After so much food, my belly is still flat and I don’t know where the food went.
