Niannian didn't know that her mother was teasing her, so she said very confidently: "It's okay at night."
Jiang Mengning: "..." She shouldn't believe this little girl.
"Nian Nian, this is not the right way to light a fire. The matches burn too fast and the sticks are too big to catch."
She tried to analyze: "Let's get some sticks out first, put some straw in and have a look."
If you are an idiot in life, it may not be long before you are forced to become a housewife by this era.
She couldn't even put her hands on clothes or open her mouth.
Nian Nian looked at her mother with a smile.
"Mom, it will take me a long time to light the fire, and I don't know when it will start."
In short, she relied entirely on luck to make the fire.
Jiang Mengning wiped the dust off her nose in a funny way: "It's okay, it's okay. Hard work pays off. If we work together, we can definitely light the fire."
She tried what she had just thought, taking out some wooden sticks, stuffing dry straw inside, and then lighting the straw with matches to start a fire.
The fire in the stove ignited instantly.
Jiang Mengning and Niannian were so happy that they clapped their hands at the same time.
"It's on fire."
Before he finished speaking, the fire gradually became smaller and smaller, and finally, it was extinguished.
Jiang Mengning: "..." Do you want this?
"What are you doing? How did you create so much smoke?" Feng Xiulian walked in and saw that the faces of one large and one small under the eaves were all transformed into tabby cats, and she couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha, look at you, your faces are covered with pot ashes!"
Her stomach hurt from laughing.
Jiang Mengning: "..."
Feng Xiulian hurried over and said, "That's not how you make a fire. Get out of the way and I'll teach you."
She took out all the firewood from the stove and put some small sticks in it.
The firewood put in did not completely block the stove, but formed a triangular shape.
Finally, stuff the straw into the bottom gap, light the straw, and the fire will come up immediately.
She made the fire very quickly and without much smoke.
The fire in the stove was burning brightly, and the pot without water quickly dried up.
Feng Xiulian asked: "Leader's wife, what are you going to do!"
Jiang Mengning quickly took out the honey residue and water.
"Just pour all this into the pot and boil it."
"Leave it alone, I'll help you."
Feng Xiulian poured water into the pot first, and then put the honey residue in.
"Isn't this honey? What are you doing!"
She touched Honey Zha's hand, and there was some honey left on it.
Smelling the fragrance and eating the sweetness, I put my fingers directly into my mouth and sucked and licked it.
"This is quite sweet."
Jiang Mengning: "...it's quite sweet."
She quickly put the lid on the pot, fearing that Feng Xiulian would put her hand into the pot again.
It's not that she is stingy, this is really unhygienic!
Feng Xiulian didn't notice anything wrong with her behavior. She came from the countryside and was not so particular.
"Daughter-in-law of the leader, you are so beautiful. Your face is as tender as a peeled egg. The more I look at you, the more I like you."
Jiang Mengning: "...Thank you!"
"Thank you for that. We all live in the compound, and the men all train together. As military wives, we have to unite with each other. To put it bluntly, we are no different from family members."
"Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If you ever need anything from now on, just come to me and I will live next door."
This guy is really familiar.
Jiang Mengning could tell that people with this kind of personality didn't have bad intentions, so she didn't need to be on guard.
Realizing that Feng Xiulian had been staring at her, she couldn't help but ask, "What do you want from me?"
You can’t just come here to chat with her, right?
"Haha, I'm... really embarrassed to say it."
She squirmed.
"It's like this. Didn't we meet each other this morning when we were taking a dump? After you left, I followed you out. As soon as I went out, I saw Captain Huo leading someone for a run."
"You also know that I don't have a good mouth. I just say whatever I think. I said directly in front of Captain Huo that your butt is white and big, and I will definitely give him a son in the future."
"As a result, Captain Huo seemed unhappy. I really didn't react at the time. My man also said something about me afterwards, so I was thinking, when Captain Huo comes back, you can say something nice to me. I didn’t mean it and I sincerely apologize.”
She actually didn't think there was anything wrong with this, thinking that Captain Huo's anger must be because there were too many people at the time.
Jiang Mengning was shocked.
This man is really a big mouth.
"Sister-in-law, there are some things that cannot be said. If you say them in front of so many people, wouldn't they just make people laugh? This matter will make everyone angry!"
Feng Xiulian had a mournful face.
"I really want to slap my mouth. I will never talk about it in public in the future. Let's just talk about it in private."
Jiang Mengning: "..." You really can't control your mouth.
Forget it, other people's mouths don't grow on her, so it has nothing to do with her.
She couldn't help but ask: "You said that this morning. Is Huo Jinyan really angry?"
"Yeah, my face turned black and I looked very angry!"
Jiang Mengning curled her lips.
angry!
He will still be angry because of her.
How rare.
"Captain's wife, I think you two should not have conflicts. Commander Huo is young and capable, and you are beautiful. They look so perfect together! If you live a good life, how many people in the compound will envy you? , not to mention how happy you are.”
"It is said that everything thrives when the family is in harmony. The most taboo thing in a family is making noises. As women, we have to look after our husbands and raise our children at home, take good care of our men, and let our men have face when they go out. This is no better than anything else. Having a good reputation is not.”
"I think you are smart and can definitely understand these principles."
She really gave her kind advice and really hoped that all women could live a down-to-earth life.
Jiang Mengning is a person who has accepted new things. Her mind does not allow her to care for a man at home!
Why do women have to be housewives at home?
People who have the ability to make money should show their talents outside instead of being tied down by their families and children.
Even if she has children, she will not give up her dreams and live the way she wants!
Life is short, if you don't enjoy yourself in time, your life in this world will be in vain.
She didn't argue with Feng Xiulian either.
There's nothing to argue about.
Everyone has different thoughts, and everyone achieves happiness in different ways. You cannot impose your own ideas on others.
While chatting casually, the honey residue in the pot soon melted into the water.
Find a clean container, filter the liquid in the pot, wait until it cools and solidifies, and the beeswax will be ready.
To make lipstick, you also need tea oil or olive oil, which you have to buy.
Jiang Mengning temporarily saved the prepared beeswax and put it in the cabinet, and then continued to make it after buying oil.
She promised to make pudding for Nian Nian, and she would not break her promise.
I just happened to find two bottles of milk in the room last night that I hadn't drunk yet, so I couldn't waste them.
Making pudding is easy.
Find a large, clean bowl, beat three eggs into the bowl, add sugar and milk, stir evenly, and steam for twenty minutes to get a sweet and chewy pudding.
The pot is steaming, the fire in the stove is burning, and the air is filled with a sweet smell.
Xiao Niannian's nose twitched, feeling that it smelled good.
Feng Xiulian couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"What's this? It smells so good! I've never seen milk and eggs boiled together. It's such a fresh way to eat it."
