A few years ago, the team had a large cafeteria. Before the famine year, everyone took their bowls and chopsticks to the cafeteria to eat three meals a day, and everyone's stomach was full. So at that time, every household donated their big iron pots without any complaints, and they would not use them anyway.
The original owner also ate in the big canteen, and went to the big canteen with Gao Xiulan and the three brothers. Every time he ate meat, he would eat big pieces of it. It was also because he remembered this taste, so he missed it so much later. Eat big pieces of meat. In order to eat meat, he abandoned his family and ran away.
Everyone has fond memories of the canteen. However, the canteen has been closed since last year. There is no way to do it. The food has been eaten up, and there is no food to supply. If the cafeteria is opened again, the food will not be enough for a few days at all. In the end, the food can only be distributed to each household according to the work points and go home to cook and eat.
However, this is useless. There is only so little food, no matter how you control it, it will not be enough.
Now when everyone is about to pause, the team will finally reopen the big cafeteria. Even if it was only for one meal, everyone was so excited that tears filled their eyes.
Open a large canteen, at least you can have a full meal.
After Su Qinghe went back, he discussed with his family and wanted to help in the cafeteria. How much food does she have to earn for the weight of the entire team this time. She has already made up her mind, this time she needs rice for all her food. Rice can be eaten, and rice husks can be crushed into chaff to eat. Maybe we can survive until the relief food comes down.
She doesn't plan to help the team earn food all the time. She also knew that she couldn't stand the tiredness. So I just plan to help them wait for the relief food.
Gao Xiulan said, "Would you like to go or not, how tired you are. What to do if you're exhausted. Are they lucky enough to eat your cooking?"
The three brothers also did not agree to let the younger sister suffer this crime.
Su Aiguo said, "It's okay to go to your sister-in-law."
When Lin Shuhong heard this, her eyes lit up. It's good to go to the big cafeteria. I can eat two more bites than others.
Ding Guihua hurriedly said, "I can go too, I have great strength."
Gao Xiulan looked at them contemptuously, "What are you doing? You have to go outside to work. We don't need to do the housework anymore?"
Su Qinghe said, "Mom, I will be sixteen next month. If I don't show it, what if I can't find a good husband in the future?"
Gao Xiulan frowned, "Who says you can't find a good husband's family, whoever my daughter likes is a blessing. Can people in these ten miles and eight villages find my daughter who is so well raised?"
What you said is like raising pigs... Su Qinghe said with a dry smile, "Mom, what, I'm trying to make a good name, anyway, it's just such a meal, I'll go hang out." Then posted Gao Xiulan He said in his ear, "Mom, the key is not to take advantage of this, I don't feel at ease. I'm like a mother, I can't suffer!"
These words deeply touched Gao Xiulan's mind.
She smiled meaningfully at Su Qinghe, "Okay, both of us will help."
Su Qinghe also laughed. She knew that to persuade the old lady, she had to follow the old lady's three views.
As for hard work and devotion to enlighten others, in the eyes of the old lady, they are all farts.
It is not easy to get this job. The three villages in the brigade are all watching. Who doesn't want to mix in and eat more
However, it was up to Guo Changsheng, the old captain, to decide.
Gao Xiulan is a man of action, and she is also a man of integrity. Now that I have decided to go to the cafeteria to take advantage... No, help. Then it must be done. If it fails to go, it will be too embarrassing to spread the word. I thought she, Gao Xiulan, was intimidated.
So he immediately took his daughter to Guo Changsheng's house.
Guo Changsheng moved here, and there is no ancestral homestead here. So the house was originally built on the wasteland at the head of the village. The house is not as good as that of the villagers. The two houses are made of mud and broken stones, and the roof is still thatched.
Before Su Qinghe and Gao Xiulan entered the courtyard, they heard the commotion inside.
"Old captain, I have great strength. I can resist and challenge, and I can do anything. You just let me work in the cafeteria. I promise not to steal food. I just look at so much food and I am satisfied."
"I'll go, I can do well at home, who in the village doesn't know that my hands and feet are slippery?"
"I'm good at cooking. I cook pig food best in the farm."
Su Qinghe: "..."
"Get out of the way." Gao Xiulan shouted as soon as she entered the yard.
When the others heard Gao Xiulan's voice, their expressions changed. It's not good to think in my heart, this old woman of the Su family also has the idea of messing with the cafeteria.
Guo Changsheng also had a headache looking at Gao Xiulan.
When he first came here, Gao Xiulan had just become a widow. At that time, Gao Xiulan often made trouble for him. The reason was that her man Su Dagen died to lead the way for the People's Liberation Army. That was a martyr, Guo Changsheng's comrade in arms, if he didn't help him, he would be ungrateful. Over the years, he has pinched his nose and endured it many times. "Comrade Gao Xiulan, aren't you going to the cafeteria too?"
Gao Xiulan said, "No, we are the families of the martyrs. We should stand up and help in such a big matter. Otherwise, I would not be able to explain to the man I sacrificed. Changsheng, we Dagen and you were comrades-in-arms back then..."
Guo Changsheng: "..." Su Dagen didn't even join the army, what kind of comrade-in-arms
Gao Xiulan burst into tears as she spoke, "Our orphans and widows are miserable, anyone in the team can bully our orphans and widows these years. If our Dagen hadn't left, our family would definitely be able to have enough food now. We Dagen don't Eat and feed the children. My life is miserable—”
Howled directly.
Su Qinghe didn't expect that her mother would just start to talk about business, and she would immediately start making trouble.
The other villagers all looked numb, obviously they have been used to Gao Xiulan's peeing for so many years.
Wherever she haunts, there is bound to be trouble. Even those who are messing around have to get things done.
Guo Changsheng had a dark face, "Comrade Gao Xiulan, don't make a fuss if you have something to say. What does this sound like?"
Gao Xiulan wiped her nose. "I can't live anymore. I just want to do some work for the team while I still have some strength, and I will be worthy of our family in the future. I haven't lost his reputation as a martyr."
Guo Changsheng patted himself on the head helplessly, "All right, all right, I'll let you go to the cafeteria."
Gao Xiulan immediately wiped away her tears in satisfaction, "And my daughter, let's go together."
Guo Changsheng: "..." He knows exactly what the old secretary's daughter is like. I haven't seen her work in so many years!
He looked at Su Qinghe, and Su Qinghe immediately straightened his back, "I want to make my dad famous too. Don't embarrass my dad."
Seeing that Gao Xiulan was going by herself, and brought a lazy girl to take advantage of it, the others immediately said, "Why don't you go to work, why are you going to the cafeteria?"
When Gao Xiulan saw someone bullying her daughter, she immediately blew up, and said with her waist stuck, "What's the matter, don't you want to bully us orphans and widows, don't you want to fight or swear at my mother? "
The man shivered suddenly and hid behind the crowd. Decided not to argue with Gao Xiulan. If Gao Xiulan were to target her, the family would not even think about having a peaceful life in the future. She can go to the house every day to make a fuss.
Guo Changsheng shook his hand, "Comrade Gao Xiulan, she's right. I've never been to the ground, so what can I do in the cafeteria?"
Su Qinghe said confidently, "I work in the field to earn work points for myself. I go to the cafeteria to work selflessly! Like my father, I sacrifice myself to illuminate others."
Guo Changsheng: "..."
Gao Xiulan said, "Our family's Qing Miao'er is very good at handicrafts. She cooks all the food in the family. If her brother doesn't agree with her going to the farm, she must be better than anyone else at work."
Everyone looked at the sky: "..." The cow is flying in the sky!
Gao Xiulan put her hands on her hips, "What's the matter, will we, Qing Miaoer, be allowed to work in the cafeteria?"
No one dared to say anything, and whoever made a sound offended others.
Seeing that they were all scared, Guo Changsheng simply said, "Okay, both of you go. If you don't pass, you can't have other thoughts. There will be others with you. Everyone should take care of everyone, not just your own mouth."
Gao Xiulan spat, "Bah, is this old lady caring about the people in her mouth?" She only cared about her Qing Miaoer's mouth.
Su Qinghe also said, "My mother and I are both thoughtful and enlightened people, old captain, don't worry."
Guo Changsheng thought to himself that because of your mother, I can't rest assured.
Having successfully obtained the qualification to work in the cafeteria, Gao Xiulan looked proud, walking on the road with her waist straight.
Su Qinghe looked at her mother like this, and thought of a word, a woman is not cruel, her position is not stable. Although these words are used in matters of men and women, they are actually quite appropriate for her mother.
The people in the team soon got to know the people working in the canteen, including the captain's daughter-in-law Su Cuihua, the former master of the canteen Su Baoshan, and Gao Xiulan's mother and daughter.
Everyone in the team: "..." Forget it, anyway, they have a stutter. One cannot be too greedy.
On the day when the cafeteria was opened, the entire team ran to the open space outside the cafeteria, and it was crowded with people. The old and the young are carrying bowls and chopsticks. His eyes looked at the cafeteria with green light.
Su Qinghe looked at this scene and almost couldn't hold the big iron spoon.
After the experience of cooking at home, Su Qinghe knows that as long as she cooks the food and is in charge of the cooking, it is fine, and she does not need to do chores. So Su Qinghe had already agreed with Gao Xiulan that she must take the blame. The reason is that the job is the easiest. But you can still go out and tell people that everything you eat is our fault. how nice.
In order to fulfill her daughter's laziness, Gao Xiulan took care of the master chef and Guo Changsheng's wife as soon as she arrived in the kitchen.
The two of them didn't have much wish for the mother and daughter, they just hoped that they could do it without thinking about it. Since you want to cook, let's cook. It just so happens that cooking is not easy.
So Su Qinghe put all kinds of miscellaneous grains in the cafeteria into the big iron pot. Gao Xiulan was on the side and cooperated with her daughter to light a fire in the stove. The master and Guo Changsheng's daughter-in-law Su Cuihua cook meals for everyone.
The dry mush hit a spoon, and the person holding the bowl almost didn't cry. It's been a long time since I ate such a dry meal. Put it aside and pour it into your mouth in a hurry.
I took a few bites, um, it was really delicious, the little girl of the old Su family didn't look like she was working, her craftsmanship was really good.
Su Qinghe didn't know that the things she cooked casually were still delicious. From the moment the food came out of the pot, there was a ding-ding sound in her head.
As pots of food came out, the sound of ding ding never stopped. She felt like she was going to die.
Fortunately, the last pot of grain was ready, and the voice in his head finally stopped.
Just as Su Qinghe was about to breathe a sigh of relief, another voice suddenly popped up in his head, "Ding—the host has completed the task of cooking for more than a thousand people. The host has worked hard and has a high moral character. The host will be rewarded with an additional five thousand catties of rice. Please continue to work hard. Work hard the spirit of."
