I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

"Youyou, let's go!"

Hao Jiajia didn't even look at Hao Tian. She turned to look at Bai Youyou, said "let's go", and left without looking back.

After seeing Hao Jiajia leave, Bai Youyou nodded to Hao Tian, ​​turned around and left, leaving Hao Tian standing there watching their backs as they left.

The young soldier stepped forward and asked Hao Tian cautiously,

"Commander, should we catch up?"

Looking at the people who had already walked away, Hao Tian sighed deeply.

"Oh, never mind, no need, let's go!"

"Yes, commander." After the young soldier said that, he ran to the car first, opened the door and waited for Hao Tian to come over.

After Hao Tian got in the car and closed the door, he went to the driver's seat and got in. He started the car, looked up at the rearview mirror and asked Hao Tian:

"Commander, where should we go now? Home or back to the army?"

Hao Tian said calmly, "Go back to the army!"

After getting a clear address, we started the car and hit the road.

The carriage suddenly became quiet. After a while, Hao Tian finally spoke:

"Xiao Chen, when we get back to the army, please leave me at the gate and help me with something." After saying that, he handed the red envelope originally prepared for Hao Jiajia to Xiao Chen.

"Give this to Captain Sheng's wife, and don't say anything else."

"Okay, Commander. Commander, how about I send you downstairs to the office and then go find the ladies." The young soldier took the red envelope in one hand and said.

Hao Tian turned his head to look out the window, his expression unclear as he said, "No need, just let me off at the door! I want to take a walk, don't worry about me."

"Ok."

Bai Youyou trotted a few steps to catch up with Hao Jiajia, and saw the poor girl with tears already streaming down her face. After thinking for a moment, she took out a handkerchief from her bag and handed it to her, looking at her with a smile on her face.

"Jia Jia, today is our first day as teachers, how can we not celebrate! Come on, let's not rush home yet, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things and see if there's any meat left. If there is, we can buy some and stew some braised pork. If not, we can buy something else."

Hao Jiajia took a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face. She seemed to have just realized that she had just done something shameful. Her originally pale face suddenly turned red, and she was so embarrassed that she seemed to want to find a hole to crawl into.

"Well, I'm sorry to have made you laugh."

Bai Youyou said indifferently:

"Well, what's the big deal? Who hasn't cried before? Besides, crying is not something to be ashamed of. As the saying goes, crying can detoxify and improve your complexion. It's such a good thing!"

"Really? Crying can really help detoxify and improve your skin. Where did you hear that saying?" Hao Jiajia, who was completely calm, looked at Bai Youyou with curiosity.

Bai Youyou said nonchalantly, "That's what I said! Why don't you believe me? If you dare not believe me, I'll give you some braised pork later."

Under Bai Youyou's gaze, Hao Jiajia whispered, "I don't disbelieve you! It's not okay to ask."

The two chatted all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative, and the first place they went to was the meat shop. However, they were too late. The meat was gone, and only some offal and scraps were left, and no one bought them. The butchers planned to take these scraps home to feed their dogs.

But Bai Youyou's eyes lit up when she saw these offal and scraps. She hadn't eaten braised pig ears, pig stomach, and braised large and small intestines for a long time.

So I asked the boss, "Boss, how much do you sell these for?"

The butcher, upon seeing two very pretty women coming to buy these things, could not help but exhort:

"My two young comrades, these are scraps that no one wants. Why are you buying them? They are not tasty, they smell, and they are difficult to clean."

When Hao Jiajia saw Bai Youyou preparing to buy scraps, she gently pulled her hand.

"Youyou, why did you buy those things? They don't taste good, and they have a really strong smell. Usually, only very poor people who crave meat but can't afford it will buy these things."

Bai Youyou patted Hao Jiajia's hand and looked at her with a smile, "Don't worry! If these are not tasty, it's because they don't know how to make them. I will make delicious food for you when you buy them back." After saying this, he looked at the boss again:

"Boss, just tell me whether you're going to sell this or not."

"For sale! Of course I can sell it. If you want to buy it, just give me five cents without a ticket, and you can take all of this away." The boss pointed to the pig heart, kidneys and lungs that were sold together with the pig offal.

Bai Youyou was really happy now. She had never thought that she could buy so many things with five cents.

She happily took out five cents and gave it to Lao Shengban. The boss took the money, then took out a palm rope, tied up all the scraps she bought, and handed them to her.

After Bai Youyou and the others left, the butcher looked at their backs, sighed, shook his head, and said:

"Ah, these two women are not stupid! They want to buy things that others don't want. They are really good friends. They originally planned to throw away things, but now they can sell them for five cents. It really saves me a lot of trouble."

Even after walking a long way, Hao Jiajia still looked at Bai Youyou with a worried look on her face, "Youyou, this thing is really not tasty. Listen to me, let's return it and get the money back. Five cents can buy two big white steamed buns at a state-owned restaurant."

Bai Youyou happily carried the pig into the water, not caring much and said:

"Don't worry, just relax! I promise that the things I make will be tasteless. Not only will they not have any bad taste, but they will also be super delicious."

"Really." Hao Jiajia still obviously didn't believe it.

"Really, really, let's go buy some other condiments next!" Bai Youyou said and walked towards the condiment stall.

The two of them spent a long time picking and choosing in the supply and marketing cooperative before they bought all the seasonings that Bai Youyou needed.

When she got home, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon. Bai Youyou put down the canvas bag and walked into the kitchen with the pig offal without saying a word.

After Hao Jiajia returned to her room and put her things away, she followed her into the kitchen and saw Bai Youyou squatting by the stove, washing pig offal with white flour.

Seeing this, Hao Jiajia couldn't help but frown, "Youyou, how can you wash it clean like this? Aren't you just wasting flour?"

Bai Youyou raised her head and smiled confidently:

"It cleans! How could it not be clean? This is an old method. Flour can absorb dirt, so it's the best way to wash these things."

After a while, Bai Youyou finally washed all the pig offal and blanched it in water in a pot. A special smell instantly filled the kitchen.

Hao Jiajia, who was preparing other side dishes, covered her nose and hid back the moment she smelled it.

Bai Youyou did her work in an orderly manner without blushing or beating her heart. After taking out the blanched pig offal, she replaced the drained water with clean water.

Then Bai Youyou methodically added various condiments and the marinade that had been prepared long ago.

As the stewing time gets longer, the unpleasant smell gradually turns into an attractive aroma.

An hour and a half later, Bai Youyou served a bowl of pork offal to Hao Jiajia, "Try it." Hao Jiajia took a small bite hesitantly, and her eyes widened. "Wow, it's really good."

Bai Youyou was now very proud. "I told you it was delicious! You didn't believe me?"

At this time, Aunt Wang, the neighbor who had just moved to her house not long ago, smelled the fragrance and came over. She stood at the door and asked curiously:

"Hey, Xiaobai! What are you making at home that smells so good? It's making our kids really hungry."

When Bai Youyou saw the person coming, she smiled and invited her in to have a taste.

After tasting it, Aunt Wang praised it highly, saying that the pig offal that she had looked down upon before could actually become so delicious.

After she was about to leave, Bai Youyou took out the largest bowl in their house without hesitation, filled it up for Aunt Wang, and asked her to take it out for the children to taste.

"Oh! How can I be so embarrassed! Xiaobai, just tell me how you made it, and I'll buy it and make it for them tomorrow.

They can’t eat enough fat meat, but this stuff can still satisfy the children.”

"Auntie, just take it! There are only two of us in our family now. It would be a waste if we couldn't finish it. Besides, there's still a lot in the pot! It's enough for us.

Besides, I particularly like your three children, and I am happy to feed them."

"Well, okay! Xiaobai, I'll take this over and share it with those guys today. I'll buy some and cook it tomorrow, and you can come to my house to eat it."

"Hey!"

Aunt Wang thanked her profusely and left with the pork offal.

Hao Jiajia, who had been standing by and watching them pushing each other, joked:

"Youyou, you are so generous. It's not easy to make these pork offal, and you just give me a big bowl."

Bai Youyou smiled and said, "A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. We should all take care of each other. Besides, we cooked so much, it would be a waste if the two of us couldn't finish it."

"Too."

Just when Bai Youyou thought it was just a small matter, the news that she could make delicious food with pig offal spread in the family compound, causing everyone to want to come to her and learn how to make pig offal, which kept Bai Youyou busy for a while.

Of course, these are all things for later.

The little soldier came after Bai Youyou and the others finished their meal.

He should have come to find Hao Jiajia a long time ago, but he didn't expect that his car broke down on the road, which required him to find someone to repair the car, which took a lot of time.

The car had just been repaired, and I found the family compound without even having a meal.

Hao Jiajia was originally sitting close to the door. When she heard the knock, she got up and opened the door without thinking.

When he saw who was standing at the door, his face suddenly became dark and he wanted to close the door.

But her strength is nowhere near that of a soldier!

The little soldier held the door with one hand and took out a red envelope from his pocket with the other hand and handed it to her:

"Miss, the commander asked me to give this to you."

Hao Jiajia tried to close the door with all her strength, but it wouldn't close. After seeing the red envelope handed over, she cursed:

"Let go. I don't want the red envelope he gave me. It's come to this, and you're still pretending to be a loving father and daughter. Go back and tell Hao Tian that I, Hao Jiajia, will never take anything from him again."

The little soldier looked helpless, but still refused to give up the red envelope in his hand and said:

"Miss, the commander knows he was wrong and he regrets it now. He hopes you can accept this red envelope, even if it's just for the sake of our past friendship."

Hao Jiajia sneered:

"The friendship in the past? When has he ever cared about friendship? Why didn't they think about friendship when they were blaming me? Besides, did I have any friendship with them in the past?" As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again.

Hearing the noise at the door, Bai Youyou walked over, gently tugged at the corner of Hao Jiajia's clothes, and whispered, "Jiajia, don't get excited. Listen to what he has to say first."

Hao Jiajia gritted her teeth and temporarily stopped closing the door.

Seeing this, the young soldier continued hurriedly, "Miss, ever since the division commander found out that Miss Nian Nian was not his daughter, he has been looking for you all these years. He didn't know you existed at that time.

Some time ago, after I knew where you were, I didn't even go to the important meeting at the military district, but went to the countryside to pick you up. Considering that the division commander has been looking for you for so long, please accept this red envelope!

I can also go back and report to the commander."

"I've already told you, whether you hand it in or not is none of my business, just take it."

The two of them were in a stalemate.

Hao Jiajia really didn't want to accept the red envelope, but after Bai Youyou saw that this was no solution, she gently pulled her and whispered a few words in her ear, and only then did Hao Jiajia reluctantly give the red envelope.

After taking the red envelope, he slammed the door shut. The little soldier outside the door looked at the closed door calmly, got back into the car and drove away.
