As soon as He Tingchuan came back, Li Aimei retired.

Yun Jin asked Li Aimei to take five fish back. The little disciples had a good catch today. She scraped the meat of the fish and made fish balls. There were still several fish left, so she asked Li Aimei to take them back and braise them or pan-fry them.

The food I robbed from other sisters-in-law still needs to be eaten in the evening.

Yunjin makes soup with the fish balls and eats it in the evening.

He Tingchuan cooked the fish ball soup in the evening. Knowing that Yun Jin didn’t like chopped green onions, he added some vegetables. After boiling it, he took a sip of the delicious fish soup and it tasted really good.

Yun Jin praised the food while eating, and those who didn’t know would think that He Tingchuan was a great cook.

He Tingchuan drank it himself, but it was nothing special.

But no one complained, so he had no reason to complain about his cooking skills.

After eating and drinking, the couple went out for a walk.

He Tingchuan asked Yun Jin about her recent situation. Yun Jin said, "I eat, drink, and sleep every day. I just wonder what her father is doing now. Has he eaten and drunk?"

Are you still alive?

Haha!

Yun Jin certainly wouldn't dare to say this out loud.

He Tingchuan paused and felt warm in his heart. He thought she was heartless, but fortunately she still had some care and knew to care about her man.

I feel happy in my heart, but I say: "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself when I am away from home and eat on time every day."

If Yun Jin hadn't seen the secretly happy curve at the corner of his lips, she would have almost believed his lies.

As expected, the male protagonists in novels all have a dead look, and their whole body is tough.

"Even if you can take care of yourself, it's inevitable that I'll think too much when I'm not around. After all, you are the father of my child!" Yun Jin looked like a good wife and mother, which warmed He Tingchuan's heart for the first time in a long time.

He Tingchuan was about to say something when he saw Yun Jin pointing a flashlight at the lotus pods in the lotus field: "What is that? It looks like it's edible. I haven't eaten any lotus pods this year!"

He Tingchuan followed Yun Jin's gaze and saw a lotus field dug out from their leader's private plot. It was said that the commander's wife liked to eat lotus roots, so she brought them from her hometown and planted them in this field.

Yun Jin had been thinking about it for a long time, but unfortunately he was too embarrassed to take action.

Others may not know, but Yun Jin knows that the teacher's wife is somewhat related to He Tingchuan's family.

Even if others don't dare, he definitely does.

Sure enough, seeing Yun Jin wanted to eat, He Tingchuan immediately stretched out his arms and picked not only one lotus pod, but also the remaining dozen lotus pods and placed them all in front of Yun Jin: "Eat it, it must be my daughter who wants to eat it, right?"

Yun Jin almost laughed out loud: "Well, your daughter wants to eat."

She also knew how to act nicely, so she gave the first lotus seed she peeled to He Tingchuan.

He Tingchuan shook his head and motioned for her to eat by herself.

Yun Jin didn't hesitate and ate a lotus pod in her hand while walking.

He Tingchuan took the rest.

When the two were almost at the compound, they saw someone coming towards them with a flashlight. When they got closer, they found that it was the owner of the lotus pod, the commander and his wife.

The old couple had just finished their meal and went out for a stroll. They hadn't visited the lotus roots and lotus flowers they planted for a long time. Thinking that there should be lotus pods, they took advantage of the fact that it was not too late and went out for a walk to see if there was anything edible.

When he met He Tingchuan and others on the road, He Tingchuan was not panicked at all.

Yun Jin acted like she knew nothing and enthusiastically stuffed a lotus pod into the teacher's wife's hand: "It's neither too old nor too tender and very delicious, try it!"

The commander's wife couldn't refuse the kindness, so she ate one and her eyes lit up: "It's really good, the kernels are full, and the lotus seeds are not bitter. They will become old in a few days, so now is the perfect time to eat them."

"Yeah, if you like it, take some back to eat. I can't finish it by myself." Yun Jin was pretending to be polite.

The commander's wife didn't feel comfortable competing with a pregnant woman for food, so she smiled and waved her hands, "No, no, we grew some ourselves. We'll just pick a few later. You can keep them and eat them slowly."

Yun Jin nodded reluctantly.

The commander's wife was curious: "Where did you pick these lotus pods? They taste almost the same as mine. I guess the ones I grow at home are edible too."

Yun Jin looked at He Tingchuan, and He Tingchuan had no awareness at all that he was stealing someone else's lotus pods.

Yun Jin smiled awkwardly: "It seems to be the teacher's house."

The teacher's wife: "!!!"

Commander: “???”

Yun Jin's acting skills came into play, and she slapped her lips: "It's all my fault. I saw the lotus pods and wanted to eat them, so I couldn't help but want to pick one to taste. Who knew he would pick them all in one go?"

He Tingchuan, who was taking the blame, nodded and said, "When winter comes, I'll dig lotus roots for the commander to make amends."

"No, I can dig it myself." What a joke. He asked this kid to dig lotus roots, but someone else's wife said she wanted to eat lotus roots and dug up all the lotus roots on his ground.

The teacher's wife was unwilling to give up: "Are there really no flowers left?"

"There should be more. After all, it's dark and there must be things we haven't seen." Yun Jin didn't want to disappoint his teacher's wife.

The teacher's wife thought so too.

He Tingchuan looked away guiltily. In the dark, other people might have poor vision, but he was different. His eyes were his ruler.

"Or, these lotus pods..." Yun Jin looked reluctant.

How could the teacher's wife, who was an elder in the same family as her, feel so embarrassed to take them back? "If you like, keep them for yourself. They're just a few lotus pods. Just pick them. There are still some in the field anyway."

Yun Jin was just waiting for her to say this: "I'm so sorry, when we dig lotus roots, please make sure my husband helps, otherwise I won't be able to eat lotus seeds."

"Okay, when the time comes, ask Captain He to come and help dig the lotus roots." Several sections would have to be sent out.

Isn’t it said that He Tingchuan doesn’t like this country daughter-in-law?

Now it seems that the rumor is indeed wrong. Just because the wife said she wanted to eat lotus pods, she dared to pick the lotus pods from the teacher's house.

After planting for so many years, I am the first one to pick lotus pods from his garden.

Thinking that they had all been picked and there was nothing left to see, the commander's wife and the others returned to the compound with Yun Jin and the others, chatting and laughing.

Looking at Yun Jin happily carrying seven or eight lotus pods home, and the teacher's wife also holding three or four in her hands, I felt like I was taking advantage of her.

Wait until the next day to go to the lotus field to take a look.

Apart from the buds, there are only lotus flowers. There is not even a shadow of an edible lotus pod, let alone a plump one.

Good guy!

He was born with a pair of sharp eyes. No wonder he could become the best artillery commander. This He Tingchuan is really not bragging.

The teacher's wife doesn't know how to complain.

Fortunately, Yun Jin ate the lotus pods. The next day, her disciples presented her with large carp and crucian carp. Yun Jin picked out two large ones and carried them to her master's house. "I feel a little embarrassed for taking something without asking last night. Now my family asked me to send two fish as apology. I hope Auntie will forgive me."

"What aunt? According to the relationship with Tingchuan, you have to call me cousin." The commander's wife smiled and took out delicious food to treat Yun Jin. As for the fish she sent, it was fresh and delicious, and it happened that the family liked to eat it, so they accepted it with a smile.

Yun Jin also knew how to roll down the slope. She smiled sweetly and said, "If I had known it was my aunt, I should have come earlier to sit with her."

"Yes, it's all my fault, aunt, for not thinking it through." The word "aunt" touched the heart of the teacher's wife.

They all came here far away from their hometowns, and it was rare for them to meet someone they could talk to. The commander's wife looked at Yun Jin with more and more fondness, held her hand and talked for a long time, and even wanted to invite her to dinner.

Yun Jin shook her head and refused: "We've already prepared dinner at home, and I can't let him work in vain."

"In your family, men cook?" The teacher's wife was surprised.

Yun Jin nodded sheepishly: "It was not last time that a plate of dried green beans upset several people. My husband won't let me cook for fear that they will get sick."

When this matter was mentioned, the division commander's wife remembered that she had heard the political commissar's wife complain about it, but she didn't expect it to be true.

Thinking that I could still get a stomachache from eating this shows how bad my cooking skills are.

Well, she is lucky enough to have a man who is willing to pamper her, so she has nothing to say.
