My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm

157 Chapter 157 Farewell (2)

“Of course, I know about that.” Zhou Huaiming said as he picked up a piece of meat, “To be honest, Zhou Ying’s cooking skills are so good that I’m sure I’ll be craving it in less than a month.”

“It’s good that you like it. It’s cold, so why not I make some food now and then and have Manager Liu bring it over?”

Zhou Huaiming nodded. “No problem. But you have to make more, sister. Otherwise, there won’t be enough for everyone.”

“Of course.”

When they were almost done eating, she left and returned to the kitchen to wrap up the hot pot ingredients for them.

Thinking of Zhou Huaiming’s previous words, she picked up a food basket for him. There were all sorts of snacks, like veggie rolls and crunchy peanuts.

She also packed more than ten meat biscuits in oil paper so that he could eat them after heating them on the way.

After preparing, she placed the items on the counter and said to Sun Hongliang, “Mr. Zhou and the others don’t need to pay for this meal today, and it’s on me.”

“Understood. Are these the same?” Sun Hongliang pointed at the things she had packed.

“This is a personal gift; you don’t have to write it down in the account books.” Zhou Ying spoke as Gu Chengrui brought them down.

Zhou Ying handed the things to them and reminded them, “Be careful; I put them in a clay pot.”

“Thank you, sister. How much is it?” Zhou Huaiming took it and asked.

“No need. I already said that today’s meal is on us.” Zhou Ying shook her head.

“Brother Zhou, let’s go while the weather is still clear.” Gu Chengrui walked out with them after that.

Seeing this, Zhou Huaiming and County Mayor Kong didn’t mention paying again. After a few polite goodbyes, they went their separate ways.

However, Zhou Huaiming didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he went to talk to Manager Liu before he took his carriage to the military camp.

On the other end, Gu Chengrui followed Zhou Ying back to the kitchen after their guests had left. He turned his head and said to her, “Brother Zhou just told me that Elder Qiao’s son, Qiao Lansheng hasn’t been captured. Qiao Lanlan might have also been rescued, so we should be careful.”

“Why didn’t they arrest her?” Zhou Ying was shocked. She thought the danger was over, but it seemed it was still around. She thought of something and asked, “Could he be fishing for a bigger fish?”

“Most likely. This town is a transit station for the waterway, so it’s an important strategic place. It wouldn’t be peaceful soon.” Gu Chengrui added.

“Keep an eye on the two workers from the old Dongxin restaurant in case they’re used by someone else. I’m going to the clinic.”

“Sure, come home early tonight if there’s nothing much there.”

After finishing her work in the afternoon, she went to the manor and taught them how to make tofu, its byproducts, and starch noodles. She only left after she guided them to make the finished products.

Suddenly, Chang Shun chased after her. “Mistress, I saw that the starch noodles are made from green bean starch. Taro might also be a possible replacement, so can we change it?”

“It’s a good idea, but green bean noodles are the most suitable and delicious when cooked.” When Zhou Ying said this, she thought of the taro noodles, and it should be fine if the taro noodles were used for shabu-shabu.

“Try it and see if you can make it. You must at least guarantee that it doesn’t break down after being boiled in water constantly.”

“I understand. Let me try it, as we have quite a lot of taro in our village.”

“If you succeed, remember to tell me.” Zhou Ying reminded him, took Er Zhuang, and went home.

In the evening, after dinner was ready, Zhou Ying waited until the food was cold, but Gu Chengrui still didn’t return home. Thinking of him as a doctor, she did not wait any longer.

Instead, she left half for him and started eating.

After that, she went to her interspace to wash her dirty clothes, especially the blankets she had changed out of and dried them in the washing machine before hanging them in the villa.
