She was rejected for marriage when she followed the army, and she married his uncle, the leader of t

Shen Ye Ning returned home and processed the turtle, beheading it, bleeding it, and removing the shell. She gently cut the joint under the turtle's shell with a knife, and then slowly peeled off the shell with her hands.

Rinse the shelled soft-shelled turtle in clean water, remove the mud and impurities on the surface, and then cut into small pieces.

Although this turtle was raised, its meat was tender, its skirt was wide and thick, and it had a lot of meat. There were still a lot of dishes at home, and two people could not finish it.

He filled a small bowl, took a bottle of freshly made crab sauce, and went to knock on Lin Chunmei's door next door.

"Sister-in-law, I just killed the soft-shelled turtle, but I found that there were too many to eat. I'll give you some. This is the crab sauce I made. It can be eaten after it has fermented for a while. It is delicious when dipped in sauce or used in cooking."

Lin Chunmei waved her hands quickly, "How can I accept this?"

"Don't be polite, sister-in-law. Take it quickly. It's a waste if you can't finish it. Don't you think so? Turtle has the effect of nourishing yin and cooling blood, nourishing the skin and skin, and eating it is good for the body."

Lin Chunmei is 40 years old this year. When she was young, her whole family was sent to a remote area. She had to work in the fields, fetch water, wash clothes and cook even in the freezing cold. She hurt her body due to the hard work and was unable to give birth to a child. She took care of herself for many years but still couldn't get pregnant. She regretted not being able to have a child, so when she heard that it would be good for her health, she didn't refuse.

"Then I'll take it. Thank you, Xiao Ning. I didn't expect you could kill turtles."

"I've seen other people deal with it before, and I learned it by figuring it out on my own."

"Xiao Shen, my sister-in-law is on vacation tomorrow. I want to ask you when you are free to come and make me a dress. I want to attend my eldest nephew's wedding next month."

"I'll be free tomorrow. Sister-in-law, you can tell me what style you want to make now. I'll go back and draw the draft tonight."

Lin Chunmei smiled awkwardly, "I don't know what style it is, I just remember seeing a very famous female singer wearing a very beautiful cheongsam in the newspaper before."

"Sister-in-law, you like cheongsam, right? Okay, I'll come and measure your size tomorrow and make one for you on the spot. I guarantee you'll be satisfied." Shen Ye Ning didn't know whether she had children or not, but judging from her figure, she looked like she had never given birth.

She doesn’t have a belly and isn’t fat. She is tall and has a plump figure, which makes her look very suitable for cheongsam.

"Xiao Ning, you really have to make a cheongsam. I'm afraid I won't be able to wear it outside."

She was used to wearing shirts and trousers, and she was not used to wearing skirts, let alone the slim-fitting cheongsam with high slits.

"There are many kinds of cheongsams. There are high-slit slim-fitting ones that are slightly high-profile, and there are low-slit loose cheongsams that are low-key and elegant. I think you have a slim figure, sister-in-law, and you will look good in any one. I'll draw the approximate styles of these two for you to see, and then you can decide which one you want."

"Okay, thank you very much. You don't have to cook tomorrow. You and Captain Lu can come to our house to eat and taste my sister-in-law's cooking."

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to be so polite. I also want to thank you for helping me send Lin Shu to the hospital."

Before going out, Shen Ye Ning marinated the soft-shelled turtle with cooking wine and salt to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor.

After returning, the marinating is completed. Put some scallion segments and ginger slices on the top of the stainless steel basin to remove the fishy smell.

Place the arranged turtle into a preheated pot with water until the turtle meat can be easily pierced by chopsticks, then turn off the heat.

Take out the steaming plate, pick out the scallion segments and ginger slices, and sprinkle some fresh chopped green onions as decoration.

As soon as the food was taken out of the pot, Lu Zhengxiao came back.

"Are you back? Wash your hands and sit down to taste the soft-shelled turtle I made."

He recognized it as a turtle at first sight, "Why is there a turtle today?"

"Xiao Wu brought it this morning. Commander Zheng also gave me a bonus of 1,000 yuan. I didn't want it, but he kept asking me to take it. I couldn't refuse, so I took it."

"This is his intention. Since he gave it to me, I'll accept it."

"Oh, and, Chunmei brought some rice, oil and salt with her from the Women's Federation. I gave Chunmei a bowl of turtle meat and asked her and Political Commissar Li to taste it. I also promised to help her make clothes tomorrow."

"It seems that you get along well with your sister-in-law." Lu Zhengxiao was still worried that she would feel bored and unhappy here because she was unfamiliar with the place.

"Sister-in-law is so nice!"

Shen Ye Ning picked up a piece of turtle meat and put it in his bowl, "Try it quickly."

"It's not that fishy, and the taste is just right. It's much better than what the chefs in the big hotels outside cook."

"If it tastes good, eat more."

After eating, Shen Ye Ning took a short break and then went to take a shower to deal with the fishy smell of the turtle. She also washed and dried her hair.

Lu Zhengxiao cleaned up the dishes and read for a while.

"Axiao, do you have paper and pen? I want to draw something."

"Yes, the pen is in the drawer and the paper is on the shelf." Lu Zhengxiao didn't want to go back to the barracks so early, so he took a shower here and was now in the bathroom.

"it is good!"

Shen Ye Ning was painting in front of the dressing table and quickly drew several cheongsams of different styles, mainly dignified and elegant.

"What is my wife drawing?" Lu Zhengxiao was used to not wearing a shirt after taking a shower. He would wait until the water drops on his body dried before putting on his clothes. Thinking that she was also at home, he went to the closet to look for a shirt as soon as he entered the house.

Shen Ye Ning's hands moved quickly, and she quickly sketched out several cheongsam styles in a few strokes.

"I'm drawing the blueprint for the cheongsam I'm going to make for my sister-in-law tomorrow." Shen Ye Ning blinked, hoping to get compliments, but when she turned around she saw that he was not wearing a shirt, and she quickly closed her eyes in fright.
