Qiao Qingyu made four dishes using pig's head meat: braised, steamed, stir-fried with red chili peppers, and also made a soup. Of course, this kind of soup is a Southern practice; people from the North don't make pig's head soup.
Qiao Qingyu gave Rongrong the tastiest part, the bird's tongue.
She generously cooked rice and made two plates of vegetarian dishes.
There were still some vegetables in the base's greenhouse; Fang Xiaomei had brought over cucumbers and bok choy.
She mixed the cucumber with dried tofu to make a cold dish.
The bok choy was made into a soup with eggs.
With both meat and vegetables, the birthday celebration was indeed wonderful.
After the birthday, He Xiuyu took Qiao Qingyu to the experimental fields in Jiangbei.
These were set up by Professor Feng and Professor Wang.
They mainly focused on experiments with rice and other crops.
