Chapter 110 Oil splashing on the face

Wu Jin, who was standing by, turned pale when he saw Lu Qiyan like this.

What are you grinning about with those big teeth?

Do you think this will make you likable?

If we talk about baring teeth, isn't Wu Jin's bared teeth better than anyone else's?

Wu Jin was a little angry, and he raised the corner of his mouth, slowly showing his teeth...

After the tea was boiled and cooled for a while, Xia Mingyue served it to Lu Qiyan.

"Come to think of it, today we were selling cold pot skewers on the street. We watched West Street for a long time, but we didn't see Brother Lu come back." Xia Mingyue expressed the question that had been weighing on her mind.

Logically speaking, Changzhou City is located in the northwest, and Lu Qiyan returned via the official road, so he should have returned through the west gate.

"One of my soldiers injured his leg. There were too many injured soldiers in the barracks, not enough doctors, and not enough medicine. His home is not far from the barracks, so the superiors asked me to send him back home to recuperate for a while."

Lu Qiyan said, "His home is in the south. After sending him off, I returned directly from the South City Gate."

"Yes, speaking of this." Lu Qiyan took out the purse from his arms and handed it to Xia Mingyue, "This is the salary for the past few months, and this time's reward, take it."

This time the purse was bigger and heavier than the previous ones, and judging from its bulging shape, it could be determined that it was mostly silver bars.

"Nowadays, business is good and I have made a lot of money. Brother Lu should keep the money for yourself." Xia Mingyue declined. "There are many things in the army that require money."

A lot of money is spent on social etiquette and so on.

What Lu Qiyan had given before was enough for a husband who supported his family.

Xia Mingyue felt that she shouldn't be too greedy.

"I still have some money left in the army, which is enough for daily use." Lu Qiyan paused and said, "I have just been promoted to captain, and my salary will be higher in the future, so you don't have to worry."

In this ambush, the brigade led by Lu Qiyan fought bravely and not only killed a large number of enemies, but also because of the proper coordination of the three-person formation used by Lu Qiyan, no one in the entire brigade died.

Lu Qiyan himself also performed outstandingly, standing out among many team leaders. He was highly praised by the battalion commander and was immediately promoted to the rank of captain.

Seeing Lu Qiyan say this, Xia Mingyue thought for a moment and nodded, "Then I'll help Brother Lu put it away first."

Just give it to him when he needs it.

"Just spend it." Lu Qiyan insisted and picked up the teacup.

Xia Mingyue did not refute anymore. She just put away the silver and started to prepare lunch.

Mix eggs and salt water into dough, roll it into thin and wide slices, then put it into a pot and cook it. Put the boiled vegetables, minced garlic, chopped green onion, chili powder, salt, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, sugar, and the tender tenderloin slices into a bowl.

After all the side dishes and seasonings were prepared, Xia Mingyue poured all the hot oil in the small pot into the bowl.

Shila-

The unique spicy flavor of minced garlic and chili peppers was fully brought out, and the entire kitchen and even the entire yard were filled with fragrance.

Lu Qiyan couldn't help but sniffle, and his stomach rumbled at the right time.

The sound was not too loud, but Lu Qiyan felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously looked towards the kitchen.

Fortunately, Xia Mingyue was busy stirring the noodles evenly at this time and did not notice it. She then brought out two bowls of noodles.

The big bowl was placed in front of Lu Qiyan.

"Thank you." Lu Qiyan took it.

It is called a bowl, but in fact, judging from its size, it is more appropriate to describe it as a basin. The noodles inside are sticking out and it looks like a lot.

Lu Qiyan usually had a big appetite in the military camp, and he was starving at this moment. He did not feel it was a burden, so he just picked up the chopsticks and ate heartily.

The wide noodles are chewy and smooth, and the amount of minced garlic and chili is just right. It is fragrant and delicious but not too spicy. The refreshing green vegetables and pork tenderloin slices are the finishing touch, adding a lot of color to the whole bowl of oil-splashed noodles.

Lu Qiyan felt that Xia Mingyue's cooking skills seemed to be getting better and better. His appetite also increased. As he kept slurping, the bowl of fried noodles gradually became empty...

Seeing that Lu Qiyan was enjoying the meal, Xia Mingyue, as a cook, felt extremely satisfied. She scooped a bowl of noodle soup for him and began to enjoy the delicious oil-splashed noodles herself.

I have to say, today's oil-splashed noodles are really delicious.

Xia Mingyue narrowed her eyes.

After lunch and cleaning up, Xia Mingyue suggested that Lu Qiyan take a rest for a while.

Lu Qiyan did not refuse. He went to the kang in the inner room where he slept and saw a small wooden box placed beside the kang.

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Qiyan opened it and saw two amulets inside.

Lu Qiyan recognized it. It was a unique amulet in the City God Temple. Someone in the army had worn it and boasted to others that the amulet was very effective.

Right now these two...

Did Xia Mingyue go to the City God Temple specifically to pray for him?

Lu Qiyan raised his eyes subconsciously.

Through the open window, one can see Xia Mingyue feeding Wu Jin.

A faint smile is as bright as the sunshine.

Lu Qiyan was stunned for a moment, then he looked away and carefully put the two amulets in his arms.

In the afternoon, Xia Mingyue was still busy with Jiang Zhuguo, Lu and others.

Lu opened her mouth, but swallowed the words back.

Yes, in broad daylight...

Lu Qiyan was used to sleeping less, so he just took a nap and woke up quickly. Thinking about how Xia Mingyue needed to make up for her sleep last time, he planned to find an excuse to go out.

And with the experience of strolling around last time, Lu Qiyan decided to go out of the city directly.

The question is to visit friends.

But before Lu Qiyan could raise his foot, Xia Mingyue was already dressed and looked like she was about to go out.

"Are you going out?" Lu Qiyan asked.

"Well, let's go out and look for places." Xia Mingyue said, "The cold pot skewers business is pretty good, and I plan to franchise it out. I'll go out and see which locations there are in the city, so that I can give some guidance to the franchisees when the time comes."

The preparatory work should be done in advance, and try to confirm all franchisees as early as possible. When the weather gets cold, new oden products should be promoted to the outside world.

"Then..." Lu Qiyan said, "I'll go with you?"

I can't sleep and there's nothing to do at home.

It would be nice to go out for a walk.

Xia Mingyue was quite surprised, but still nodded, "Okay."

The two of them went out together.

The area of ​​Jinqiu County is limited, and there are only a few prosperous main streets. Xia Mingyue is very familiar with the streets in Xicheng District, so there is no need to look at them too much. The main areas to visit are the east, south and north areas.

Among these three areas, Dongcheng District is the focus of Xia Mingyue.

The East City District of Jinqiu County is the most prosperous, and most people living here are wealthier than those living in other areas.

The cold pot skewers and the oden that will be launched in winter are basically a kind of snack, and their prices are higher than those of Xia Ji’s food stall.

Such snacks will sell better in places with high consumption levels.
