Chapter 516 Difficulties in transitioning from luxury to frugality

When he heard it, he was dissatisfied that she pretended not to see it.

This guy was also very good at holding back his words. He slept until dinner time and was awakened by the smell of pickled fish. After getting up, brushing his teeth, washing his face and taking a quick shower, he turned into a glutton as if he had been hungry for five hundred years.

Wen's mother cooked three dishes and a soup. Wen Yi couldn't sit at the table because he was breastfeeding. After Wen's mother and Yi Chichi each ate two bowls of rice and some dishes, he took up the rest.

"Are you full?"

Wen's mother felt so distressed that she felt sorry for her son, who was as hungry as a refugee. She was worried that he was not full, so she prepared to make him something more.

"full!"

Wen Shi burped, leaned back in his chair with a satisfied look on his face, and sighed from the bottom of his heart, "I finally had enough. I haven't had a good meal in a while."

"So busy that you don't even have time to eat?"

Yi Chichi and Wen's mother exchanged glances and looked at him together.

He shook his head. "Not really. Except for the first ten days when I was so busy that I only slept three or four hours a day, everything was fine afterwards..."

"Then you're still hungry."

Wen's mother questioned in dissatisfaction.

He sighed when he heard it, "It doesn't suit my taste, so I can't enjoy the meal."

Wen's mother and Yi Chichi immediately shut up.

Taste is seriously affected by the growing environment.

In addition to the differences in regions, the eating habits of each province are actually different.

Some people can eat all kinds of food and are easy to feed. But some people will lose their appetite if the food doesn’t suit their taste and they won’t eat much.

Wen Shi's problem was actually not serious. After all, the place where he originally lived was extremely difficult. It was good enough to have a stutter, and it was even more fortunate to be able to fill his stomach and not go hungry.

However, it is easy to live in luxury but difficult to live in frugality.

The islands have rich marine resources, so their food is not bad.

Of course, their favorite is still meat, braised pork, pork belly, and big chunks of meat with a lot of fat.

But compared to before, even though I can’t eat pork every day, life is many times better.

After Yi Chichi brought Wen's mother to join the army, he started to go home to eat.

Yi Chichi is a person who knows how to spend money and is willing to spend it. She will never treat herself or her family badly when it comes to food. Wen's mother was so moved by her nagging that she was willing to add oil, salt and other sauces. Once there is enough oil and water, the taste of the dishes will naturally improve.

This also causes the mouth of the smeller to become picky. It is normal for him to feel uncomfortable when he is caught off guard by such an unexpected event.

but--

"It wouldn't be a bad thing if you adapted earlier."

"What?"

Wen Shi’s eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Yi Chichi with confusion.

"You forgot, Lao Li and the others are almost back. Then it will be your turn to lead the team out to sea. You know what to eat at sea."

As soon as Yi Chichi said this, Wen Shi's face fell, "Sure enough, people can't live a good life."

"Ask mom to make you some soybean paste to take with you."

If all else fails, just eat soybean paste with rice.

The food was not bad when we first went out to sea, but as time went on we started to lack fresh fruits and vegetables, and we couldn't stand eating seafood for a long time.

At this time, you need some strong-flavored food to relieve the urge.

Why do ocean-going crew members like to bring pickled mustard tubers and wind oil essence with them?

Because the former is good for whetting the appetite, while the latter can refresh the mind.

There is no zha cai, but Wen Mu’s pickled vegetables are a specialty.

Wen Shi's eyes lit up, and he turned to his mother and said, "Mom, is it okay?"

"Row."

Mother Wen agreed immediately, "I'll go buy some meat tomorrow and make you some meat sauce. I'll make a few jars of spicy and thirteen-spice sauce."

Wen Shi was so moved that tears filled his eyes. He hugged his mother and said emotionally, "My mother is so kind."

Wen's mother responded by slapping him on the back of his head, "You are so old, but you are still so clingy." After being slapped, Wen Shi felt that he would never love again, especially after Wen's mother came to the crib to look at Wen Yi. She could no longer hold back the bitterness in her heart and whispered to Yi Chichi, "Mom doesn't love her son anymore now that she has a grandson."

"It's okay, I love you."

Yi Chichi comforted him softly, and she felt beautiful when she heard it.

He happily cleaned up the dishes and ran to see his son happily.

Wen Yi was not shy either. When he saw him stretching out his hand, he quickly grabbed one of his fingers and put it into his mouth.

Wen Shi was so scared that he quickly pulled it out. It would have been fine if he hadn't pulled it out. After he pulled it out, he was surprised and said, "Son, you can do it. Your hands are so strong."

Before he finished speaking, he took Wen Yi out of the crib and sat on his lap to try to make Wen Yi stand.

Yi Chichi saw that it was not good and quickly stopped him, "Don't let him stand, he is too young and his spine is too weak to support him. The leg muscles and bones are not strong enough to support him standing, which is not good for his development."

Wen Shi followed the advice and quickly changed the child's position and held him in his arms. Wen was stunned for a moment when the child fell into Yi Chichi's broad arms unexpectedly, and then he said "oh" in surprise to Yi Chichi.

“This is Daddy!”

Yi Chichi smiled and held his little hand, then placed it on Wen Shi’s face, “Touch Daddy, remember his appearance and smell, and you’ll recognize him when you get familiar with him.”

Wen Shi looked at Wen Yi with anticipation, and the father and son looked at each other in surprise.

Then--

Wen Shi grinned at him, and Wen Yi reached his hand into his mouth to open it.

When smelling, "..."

What kind of hobby is this?

He has such a handsome face, but his son doesn't study it, but studies his mouth instead. It's really speechless.

Just as he was about to take his hand, Wen Yi started studying his ears again.

Seeing that the father and son were having a good time and Wen Yi didn't look like he was going to cry, Yi Chichi pulled Wen's mother to the vegetable garden and pointed at the green vegetables growing well in the field and said, "Mom, let's bake some vegetables!"

Wen's mother asked, "??? Why did you think of drying vegetables?"

This is not a fruit, so the quantity produced is large.

There aren't many vegetables that can be grown on this piece of land.

"Bring it to Wen Shi."

"It takes a long time to air dry, and we don't have a suitable stove at home if we dry it manually."

"Can I hit one?"

That's fine, right? "When will Wen Shi leave?"

She had to see if she had enough time.

"We have to wait for Lao Li and the others to come back."

Mother Wen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to come and light the stove tomorrow."

So, this topic ends here.

At night, after the couple coaxed Wen Shi to sleep, Wen Shi immediately stretched out his hand in front of her and said, "Wife, do you think there is something wrong with my hand?"

Yi Chichi understood immediately that this was meant to make her feel distressed.

She brought the ointment over and said, "It's a little rough. I'll take care of it for you."

Before she finished speaking, she opened the lid, scooped out a dollop of ointment, rubbed it in her palm, and then rubbed it on his hand.

When smelling, "..."

This was different from what he thought.

He was aggrieved, "I'm injured, and you don't feel sorry for me at all."

"Who said that? I'm giving you hand protection."

Yi Chichi didn't feel bad about this, so she took good care of his hand, then opened her arms and hugged him, "I feel bad for you. When you were playing with me, I talked to mom about making dehydrated vegetables."

Wen Shi's attention was instantly diverted, "Dried vegetables?"

There is nothing wrong with this description. No matter whether it is dried vegetables or dehydrated vegetables, they are all dry.

Thinking of this, she nodded, "Let's get more varieties. When we run out of fresh fruits and vegetables, we can use these dried vegetables to cook dishes. It's good to supplement some vitamins."
