Chapter 1482: Coming to the Door

~4 min read 723 words

Before she could act, the orderly Xiao Guo entered the courtyard: "Sister-in-law, the deputy regiment commander has business to attend to outside and won't be back for lunch; he asked me to deliver the meal at the proper time, so I came to tell you."

Upon hearing this, Chuxue quickly waved her hand: "Xiao Guo, we have food at home; I'll just heat it up. You go on with your work; no need to bring me a meal. Thanks for making the trip."

Xiao Guo looked troubled: "Sister-in-law, making the trip isn't a bother; please don't..."

Chuxue quickly waved her hand: "Don't misunderstand; I truly have food."

To put him at ease, Chuxue went into the kitchen: "Wait a moment."

Inside the kitchen, she took the opportunity to pull a red date and red bean bun she had steamed in the space yesterday, came out, and handed it over: "Here, have a taste."

Xiao Guo paused, looked at the red date and red bean bun in Chuxue's hand, then quickly waved his hand: "No need, no need, Sister-in-law, keep it for yourself; then I won't come to deliver lunch today."

After speaking, he quickly turned and ran out: "Sister-in-law, I'll head back to training first."

In fact, once he ran out, he regretted it; thinking of that red date and red bean bun, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

After coming to his senses, he cursed himself for being weak-willed.

Seeing the person leave, Chuxue smiled.

Remembering something, she went into the kitchen again, took out Sister Tao's pickled vegetable bowl, and directly placed two red date and red bean buns into it.

After entering the room, she put the bowl on the windowsill: "These are red date and red bean buns I steamed; take them back for Yushan and Yurong to taste."

Sister Tao, who had been stitching a shoe sole with her head down, looked up upon hearing this and said: "Will I dare bring you things in the future?"

Chuxue laughed: "It's nothing precious; it's made with two kinds of flour, and the buns aren't big either. I just gave one to each of the two children to taste; you're still being polite with me."

Hearing her say this, Sister Tao felt helpless: "Nowadays, whenever we make anything at home, those two little rascals urge me to bring it to you; they've almost become little geniuses."

Chuxue hadn't expected this and laughed too.

Sister Tao laughed: "And every time after tasting them, they ask me, 'Mom, can you copy the recipe?' Don't you find that infuriating?"

Chuxue chuckled: "They're already using proverbs now, haha, they have a bright future."

After seeing Sister Tao off, Chuxue closed the main gate, returned to her room, and entered the space behind the door; while making pickled vegetable fish, she thought, I suppose I should pickle some pickled vegetables in the space; not to mention, I suddenly craved this dish.

Anyway, the pots in the space kitchen were big enough; she directly processed three fish, filling a huge pot.

After eating and drinking her fill, she stored the leftovers in the space warehouse, then rinsed herself inside the space, changed into a fresh set of clothes, and only then exited the space.

Fu Yan Cheng's nose is like a dog's; last time I entered the space and ate braised pork ribs, as soon as he returned and approached me, he smelled it; luckily, I had good fortune, as the Gong deputy regiment commander's family happened to have relatives visiting, and they happened to make braised pork ribs at home.

She went to check the room where the kang had been heated; the vegetables planted some time ago, with the support of the space's pool water, had now grown a fist's height and could be picked and eaten in a few days.

It was just that what she hadn't expected was that before she even started picking her vegetables, someone from the logistics department came looking: "Comrade Chuxue, we are from the Logistics Department."

Seeing the few people outside the door, Chuxue immediately understood, but she pretended not to know: "What is this about?"

He Ziyan, standing at the front, quickly stated the purpose of their visit: "Here's the situation; we heard you have some wooden boxes at home used for growing leafy greens?"
