Small Shop Owner in the 1960s

Chapter 80

Views:

The selection of advanced workers in the mine is about to be voted on. Xu Nannan is also busy doing something positive these days.

Regarding Wu Jian's donations, she was not prepared to follow suit except for taking out a catty of food stamps. Instead, I went to the mine and communicated with the workers in person to understand the difficulties they encountered in their daily work and which ones the procurement department could solve, and recorded them all. But for anything that is really lacking, she writes a purchase requisition form, and applies for the purchase of materials to meet the materials that the workers need during their normal work.

This thing is done in a stable manner, so that people can't make mistakes, and they are also actively completing their work.

Because Wu Jian's previous actions were too violent and powerful, Section Chief Xiao and others in the purchasing department did not put pressure on Xu Nannan and let her go with the flow.

They didn't want Xu Nannan to become like Wu Jian. At that time, the entire procurement department will take the lead in making donations like the labor union.

The gains outweigh the losses, and food is more important than these so-called honors.

Xu Nannan himself didn't feel anxious. She is not optimistic about Wu Jian's matter. Donations are now closed. Workers who will soon be in difficulty will turn to the union for food. That's when the problems started.

As for whether she can choose herself, she is also very calm. After all, I haven't done much work for the mine before, so it's reasonable not to be selected, so don't feel sorry.

So although Xu Nannan was busy these few days, he lived a fulfilling life.

Li Weiming was on a business trip, and Zhu Fang came over at noon and took her to the cafeteria for dinner. I just found a seat in the middle and queued up, and found that Xu Jiansheng was also queuing up in the next line to get food. Xu Ling followed behind, looking around from time to time. Seeing Xu Nannan, he smiled and waved.

"Your sister can have a full meal now." Zhu Fang whispered.

Xu Nannan also smiled at Xu Ling. Handing the rice bowl to Jiang Lili, Jiang Lili snorted and gave her a big spoonful of food.

When he came out with the vegetable bowl, Xu Nannan didn't know what was going on. Instead, Zhu Fang came over and whispered, "I heard that she is now dating a worker in the mine, who was recruited from the countryside. They are all talking about marriage. It seems that after Wu Qing's incident, her temper has finally come to an end." It's settled."

Xu Nannan nodded, and looked at Jiang Lili again, the hostility on her face was really reduced a lot. It's not like in the past when you owe everyone a thousand and eighty thousand. Much more normal.

It seems that people still have to experience a little before they know how to live.

The two found a table and sat down. Just as they were about to eat, there was a commotion in the line.

Xu Nannan and Zhu Fang looked over, as if someone had fainted.

"Officer Wu fainted, hurry up and take him to the infirmary." Someone yelled.

"He is so hungry. In order to donate food to the mine organization, he hasn't rested for several days. He hasn't eaten anything for a while. How can he bear it?"

It was Xu Meizi's voice.

"Oh, I'm dizzy from hunger, get me something to eat." Someone immediately said.

Xu Nannan and Zhu Fang were dumbfounded. Zhu Fang whispered, "Impossible, I watched him secretly eat eggs at noon yesterday."

Pretend.

The two looked at each other.

"Officer Yu, some comrades here have fainted from hunger because of the mine, why are you still eating?" Xu Meizi suddenly shouted to Xu Nannan.

She knew that Xu Nannan had also participated in the selection of outstanding employees this time. Xu Nannan had been praised several times by the notice, but this time there was still hope. She didn't want Wu Jian to be overwhelmed by Xu Nannan. Seeing Xu Nannan sitting there, she simply yelled. Let everyone see how cold-blooded she is.

Xu Nannan felt that he was shot while sitting. Originally, I also wanted to watch Wu Jian act, but now it's fine, people won't let me watch it. Okay, don't let me watch it, let's play it too.

Xu Nannan hurriedly picked up the bowl on the table next to him, "Oh, what's wrong with Director Wu, I was shocked just now. This starving fainting person can't eat dry food. I have fainted from hunger before, so I know what to do. "Speaking, he made a bowl of soup, "Get out of the way," pushed Xu Meizi away with one hand, called everyone around him away, and pinched Wu Jian's nose, "Come someone to open his mouth for me, "

Immediately, a kind-hearted person ran over to help, pinching his cheek heavily, and Wu Jian's mouth was pinched open. Xu Nannan quickly poured water into his mouth.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

As soon as the soup went down, Wu Jian woke up coughing, exhaling non-stop. "Hot hot hot."

Seeing him wake up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Nannan said guiltily, "Officer Wu, I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now, and I didn't have time to wait for the soup to cool down. You're better, why don't you get some? By the way, you have to thank this comrade. There are still two mouthfuls of rice left, and it just went into your stomach."

When Wu Jian heard this, he immediately looked like he had eaten a fly.

Turning back to the owner of the bowl, he said, "Comrade, I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now and used your bowl and food, so I'll give you what's in my bowl."

This comrade was still feeling sorry for his two mouthfuls of food, but when he heard Xu Nannan say that, he felt a little embarrassed, "No, it's okay for me to eat less than two mouthfuls."

"How can this work?" Xu Nannan winked at Zhu Fang, and Zhu Fang hurried over with Xu Nannan's bowl, and poured the untouched food into the comrade's bowl, "It's all untouched, don't you polite."

The comrade blushed looking at the food in the bowl, but he was reluctant to return it. Take it home at night and feed it to the children at home.

The people around looked at Xu Nannan's generosity, and thought that the girl was so generous, giving such a big bowl of leftovers for two mouthfuls. Still doing things for Wu.

At this moment, Wu Jian also recovered, and looked at Xu Nannan with a dark face.

Xu Meizi also clenched her fists angrily. She never thought that the girl who fed pigs in her hometown would be so vicious. No wonder even her mother said that this girl has become a genius.

Xu Nannan looked at the two of them and said, "Officer Wu, you have to take care of yourself, don't faint again, if you don't have enough food, eat my food. I'll take a few bites less. If you faint, When will those donated food stamps be effective? Don’t let them expire next month, they will become waste paper.”

The delivery worker next to him looked at Officer Wu with burning eyes. Food has been donated, when can I go to the trade union to ask for food

Feeling the eyes of other people, Wu Jian remembered this.

Those food stamps have just been collected, and they really haven't started to play a practical role yet. This is not conducive to canvassing votes later.

Wu Jian felt that Xu Nannan had woken him up. Although the matter failed this time, when the food coupons were distributed, the workers would support him without fainting.

A grateful smile appeared on his face, "Then I would like to thank Director Yu for his work. Just watch, our trade union will definitely do practical things for the workers in the mine soon. Put all these benefits into practice."

Xu Nannan nodded in agreement, "Okay, everyone is waiting, Director Wu must hurry up."

He stood up and walked out with the rice bowl in his hand.

Zhu Fang also took the rice bowl and followed behind. From time to time, he looked back at the two of them. Seeing the soup on Wu Jian's face, he was in a mess and smiled lightly. As for what, making yourself pitiful is not what Bo sympathizes with. And that Xu Meizi, who is so cloudy, wants to pull Nannan into the water.

After leaving the cafeteria, the two went to clean the rice bowl under the faucet.

Thinking that people like Wu Jian could get advanced employees, Zhu Fang was a little bit unwilling. Such a hypocritical person, stepping on others to climb up, can't pass just thinking.

Zhu Fang whispered, "Oh, you're really not worried at all. He's doing a big job, even if something goes wrong, he's just wasting his mind anyway, maybe the workers will really support him .”

Xu Nannan washed the rice bowl clean and shook the water, "If he doesn't make any mistakes in this matter, I will be willing to give him the ticket at that time. I'm only worried that he will do bad things with good intentions and cause trouble. You said that the mine is really difficult. , How many do you think there are?"

Zhu Fang really didn't know this question. Anyway, I always heard that the workers in the mine were very difficult. They are all recruited from the countryside, and they do hard work. There are many children in the family, and it is difficult to raise them.

Xu Nannan said, "Don't say anything else, just use my previous example. In the countryside, children who can't work can also get part of the ration. Not to mention too much, if you eat it with wild vegetables and wheat bran, you won't starve to death. On the side of the mine, the wages of the workers are not low. Counting the food from their hometown, they can actually support a family. But why didn’t they support them? In a word, the burden is too heavy. Not only to support children, but also to support the family people."

This is also the characteristic of this era, but anyone in the family who is promising will pull out other brothers. If you don't help, people will poke your back and say you have no conscience. It doesn't matter whether it's moral kidnapping or not, it's how they came here anyway. It can even be regarded as a kind of respect between brothers and friends, and a manifestation of family unity to tide over difficulties.

"In this way, the pressure on the workers from the village in the mine will be really high. A one-time donation of food will not solve the problem, but the supply will be in short supply. The workers who are allocated will be grateful, and those who are not Approval? Donating food this time is not necessarily a good thing.” She felt that the leaders of the Mining Committee should have noticed it, but they didn’t say it for some reason.

After all, there are some conflicts between the Mining Committee and the trade union. Although Sister Liu of the trade union is a sensible person, the workers can't bear it and trust the trade union. Look at Wu Jian's ability to incite the workers these two times, which shows the workers' trust in the union. Wu Jian made a fuss about this matter, maybe he followed the wishes of the Mining Committee. She felt that people like Mine Manager Gao and Mine Manager Li should not fail to see the hidden problems behind them. They didn't bring it up, they could only say that they didn't want to mention it. Anyway, for them, the worst consequence is to recover the food sent out and return it to those who donated food.

In this way, the credibility of the trade union will be greatly reduced.

Of course, this is just her guess, and it's not easy to talk nonsense. Otherwise, it is to provoke the relationship between the mining committee and the trade union.

Wu Jian's work efficiency is quite high. Xu Nannan only said that at noon, and when he got off work in the afternoon, an announcement had already been posted on the bulletin board, and the application for the donated food stamps could already be started. Workers whose families are in difficulty can apply, and as long as they are verified by the trade union and found to be in difficulty, they can receive corresponding subsidies.

This time, the mine exploded, and some of them didn't even go to the canteen to eat, but went to the trade union.

Even Li Jing was thinking about going to the trade union to ask for food.

My family took out fifteen catties of grain. Now the troubled family can't get rid of the pot.

When Xu Hong came back from the outside, seeing Li Jing going to ask for food, she frowned and said, "How embarrassing." In the past, she didn't care whether she was ashamed or not, but now Lin Qingsong might be coming to the mine. Qingsong knew how shabby her home was.

Thinking about the meat dishes she ate that day, she couldn't help swallowing. What a wonderful day people had. If only she could live like this.

When Li Jing heard this, she stopped thinking. She also dislikes shame.

"By the way, what's the matter with your partner? When can you come to the door?"

After Xu Meizi's incident happened, Li Jing felt even more insecure. Xu Hong had to settle this matter as soon as possible, and she had to get in touch with the county party committee as soon as possible. She didn't want to wait for a long time, and the bamboo basket fetched water in vain.

Xu Hong tried on her newly bought clothes, "Why are you in a hurry, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Besides, he is not the best..."

Upon hearing Xu Hong's words, Li Jing became anxious, "What do you mean, this matter can't be done?"

"Why can't it be done? I don't want to do it." Xu Hong said unhappily, "If I agree, isn't it a matter of time?"

Li Jing was a little disbelieving, and frowned, "What on earth do you want to do? Why don't you make it happen? You don't want to go to the nice county party committee compound?"

Seeing that Li Jing was unhappy, Xu Hong also knew that if she didn't explain this matter clearly, she might be hindered by her unclear uncle, so she could only put the clothes on the bed, drag Li Jing to sit down, and waited patiently. He said calmly, "Auntie, do you think the county party committee compound is better, or the head of the capital's house?"

"Of course it's the chief's family, what a great official that is." I'm afraid even the county magistrate will bow down when he sees it.

"That's right. Auntie, let me tell you, I now know a son of the chief's family..." Xu Hong told Lin Qingsong about the things she knew, including the person Xu Jiansheng asked to help tell the mine yesterday. Lin Qingsong, told Li Jing all these from the beginning to the end.

Li Jingting's neck was red.

"Why didn't you say so sooner, or else I could still stare at your uncle and tell the mine, as long as people come to the mine, it won't be a matter of time?" Li Jing said with a bit of resentment. Now looking at Xu Hong's eyes became even hotter. I used to think that Xu Hong was going to fly on the branches and become a phoenix. Looking at it now, this phoenix can fly even higher.

Although Xu Meizi's efforts to let her have been in vain all these years, as long as Xu Hong's matter is completed, then her hard work these years will not be in vain.

Before Xu Jiansheng came back, Li Jing hurriedly looked for him, and asked Xu Jiansheng if he had helped Xu Hong talk about Lin Qingsong.

Xu Jiansheng didn't want to see her any more now, and said impatiently, "I said it, mine manager Gao said that if he really is a college student, he should come directly to the mine to meet her, and we can make a decision after we meet."

After hearing Xu Jiansheng's words, Li Jing couldn't care about him anymore, and immediately ran back to talk to Xu Hong about it.

After getting the approval letter, Xu Hong couldn't sit still. The day after tomorrow is a small weekend, if you don't come tomorrow, you have to wait until Monday.

Regardless of whether to eat or not, she changed into beautiful clothes and ran outside.

In the evening, when Lin Qingbai came back from his busy work, he found that his brother was at home. Moreover, the bed was turned into a mess again, and all the clothes in the box were turned out. Even his shirt was turned out.

Lin Qingbai frowned and said, "Are you going out again?"

"No brother, I want to change my job and go to Nanjiang Iron Mine tomorrow. Come and help me see, which outfit should I wear to look mature and stable?"

Lin Qingsong also knew that his face looked tender, and he reckoned that he would be underestimated in front of those mine leaders, so he had to tidy himself up.

Hearing the words of Nanjiang Iron Mine, Lin Qingbai frowned, "What are you doing there? Didn't you do well in the supply and marketing cooperative? If you don't want to do it, go back to the capital and don't make trouble."

"My brother, you don't understand. I really want to start a career. Besides, you are here alone facing these ghosts and monsters. As a younger brother, I don't feel at ease. I have to help you watch." Lin Qingsong While trying on clothes, he said.

Lin Qingbai shook his head, ignored him, and cleaned up the things on his bed. Stack clothes neatly.

Lin Qingsong stopped him, "Brother, lend me your clothes to wear."

"Can you wear it?" Lin Qingbai looked at him amusedly.

"Then what should I do, I must go to Nanjiang Iron Mine."

"What's the reason?" Lin Qingbai put down his clothes and asked with a frown. "Don't tell me, you just have nothing to do. If that's the case, you should go back and don't make trouble for others here."

Lin Qingsong has long wanted to talk to his brother about these things, but his brother is usually busy and doesn't like to talk, so he doesn't have time, "Brother, do you believe in fate? Let me tell you, I was in Shanghai before I met a girl, and then met when I came to Annan by train, and finally met again in Nanjiang a few days ago. I think it's very funny when I think about it."

His tone was excited, but the more Lin Qingbai listened, the more he felt that he was messing around.

"The other girl has taken a fancy to you? You chased to the mine just because of a girl?"

Lin Qingsong shrugged his shoulders, "That's not true. Besides, I'm not interested in him anymore. I just think it's very fun and fate. Anyway, if I want to stay in Nanjiang, I must find a suitable place. And I I majored in mechanical engineering, and it is also useful in mines.”

Listening to this kid talking nonsense, Lin Qingbai suddenly envied him.

It is not easy to develop such a temperament. Then I remembered Xu Nannan who likes to hold on to everything and doesn't like to owe others favors. How much hardship would it take to develop such a temperament

Speaking of which, this little girl is going to invite him to dinner the day after tomorrow.

Gotta find a good place.

I'm used to Lin Qingsong's messing around all these years, so Lin Qingbai doesn't want to care about it anymore. Anyway, someone will come and take this kid away after a while, so let him be wild for a while.

When Xu Nannan came to the mine the next day, he found that the trade union was extremely lively.

Zhu Fang came early and was watching the fun outside. When she saw her, she quickly waved her over to watch the fun. Xu Nannan walked over and found that Sister Liu from the procurement department was also there, and Xiao Zhang also stepped on his feet to look inside.

"Last night, the food stamps were gone. It was said that it was for those who were in difficulty to apply. As a result, the wives and children came directly to the union to cry for poverty. How can the union bear it. Come one by one, come this morning, there is not a single food stamp left Li. Sister Liu is surrounded now."

"Nobody dealt with this matter?" Xu Nannan didn't expect that it was only one night, so he made a fuss. I thought it would have to wait until Monday.

"Someone went to Mine Manager Gao's house to look for someone, and it is estimated that they will come soon. Wu Jian is running out of sight now."

"..." This is a wrong thing, and I don't even have the courage to deal with the aftermath. Fortunately, she thought about voting for him before.

After all, they are all people who have to work, and they can't all watch the fun here. Sister Liu shook her head and sighed, dragging Xu Nannan back to the procurement department. Zhu Fang can't leave, she belongs to the mining committee, and she has to wait here to wait for the mine to come over to deal with the matter.

Although they were sitting in the office, Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang's hearts were flying, and they both wanted to know how to deal with this matter in the future.

After work at noon, Sister Liu flew to the Mining Committee as if flying, and even dragged Xu Nannan along with her.

This girl has a good relationship with the mining committee and can get news.

They didn't dare to go in and just waited outside. After a while, Zhu Fang and some small officials from the mining committee came out.

Seeing Xu Nannan and Sister Liu, Zhu Fang trotted over, "Mine Manager Gao acted vigorously and ordered the food stamps issued by the trade union to be collected. Return all the workers' food stamps, leaving only the cadres' food stamps , to subsidize a few needy households. The workers were upset, and President Liu and my aunt both went to work. Fortunately, the food stamps were only issued last night, and there is no time to spend them.”

After hearing the gossip, Sister Liu didn't stay too long, greeted her with a smile, and ran to her house. No matter what, she can get back this catty of grain.

When there were only two people left, Zhu Fang whispered, "I don't know what's going on, mine manager Gao didn't lose his temper today, and our mining committee thought that mine manager Gao was going to lose his temper this time."

Xu Nannan thought, is it really what she thought

"It's good if you don't lose your temper, or you will be dragged down in the mining committee, let's go, let's go to eat."

"Oh, you have to go first, and I have to take someone to go through the formalities. You don't know, there is a college student here, who is from the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Beijing University. The mine manager Gao is like a baby, and he said let's go to the mine. Instruct our workers, give lessons to those masters, and let them accept new knowledge."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nannan asked, "Did Director Xu introduce you?"

"How do you know, he really talked to the mine manager, and the mine manager met him. I saw that the man was quite young. He was different from those young people in our mine. It's a pity that I'm not here. Object..." she joked with a smile.

Looking at Xu Nannan again, "You can give it a try, why don't you come with me? We'll get the moon first."

"Stop it, I'll go eat first, you are busy." Xu Nannan slipped away immediately.

She didn't dare to casually meet the person Xu Hong introduced.

Before going to work in the afternoon, the emotions of the mine workers were basically calmed down. President Liu and Director Zhu took a lot of effort to calm down the matter. Both of them were full of resentment towards Wu Jian. They are quite capable of tossing around when there is trouble, and if something goes wrong, they run away and have their ass wiped, what do they take them for.

Not long after, Xu Nannan received the notice. This time, candidates for advanced workers should make speeches based on the difficult problems of mine workers. It turns out that although Director Zhu and the others have stabilized the mood of the workers, the workers are still feeling a little uncomfortable. Therefore, Mine Director Gao hopes to at least alleviate the difficult problems of the workers. One thing is fine, so there is such a crop.

After receiving this news, Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang became active and helped Xu Nannan to pay attention to how to solve these problems in the mine.

After talking about it, there is one conclusion in the end-no solution.

Xu Nannan was racking his brains and thinking of countermeasures when Zhu Fang led the people over.

"Let me introduce the new comrade to you, the technical guide from our mine, Instructor Lin."

Xu Nannan, Sister Liu, and Xiao Zhang all stood up to welcome the new colleagues. When he saw the face of his new colleague, Xu Nannan's eyes widened.

The person came with a three-quarter comb, wearing a blue overalls with a white shirt inside, and looked like an educated youth.

But this face, she was very impressed.

Well, isn't this big back head doing purchases in a supply and marketing cooperative? He came here to give technical guidance in a blink of an eye. This is not a liar.

Lin Qingsong smiled brightly, shook hands with everyone enthusiastically, and introduced himself. "Teach me a lot, teach me a lot."

It was Xu Nannan's turn, and he said with a smile, "Hello, Director Yu, my name is Lin Qingsong. Please give me your advice in the future."

Xu Nannan smiled and said, "Don't dare."

Fortunately, Lin Qingsong didn't stay here for long, and was taken by Zhu Fang to meet colleagues elsewhere.

Sister Liu said excitedly, "A good-looking junior student came to our mine. Look at how enthusiastic he was just now. Unlike some college students, the eyes grow on the top of the head."

Xu Nannan smiled perfunctorily, and scolded Lin Qingsong seventeen or eight times in his heart.

He already knew that he was not a good person, but now that he and Xu Hong knew each other, it seemed that he was really not a good person. He lost his name in vain, and he was only one word away from Brother Lin.

After work in the afternoon, Xu Nannan was thinking about eating tomorrow.

Thinking of inviting Lin Qingbai to dinner tomorrow, she was quite looking forward to it. This time, we must eat more and order some good dishes. Well, in the future, I will find a way to send Lin Ge some future food, so that he can try something new.

Walking on the road, Xu Nannan was still thinking about it.

"Officer Yu," a voice called from behind.

Xu Nannan heard the voice and quickened his pace.

The footsteps behind him also quickened, and they quickly caught up. Xu Nannan couldn't even run, so he just kept going.

"Officer Yu, why don't you speak?" Lin Qingsong smiled enthusiastically.

Xu Nannan found that there were workers watching them, so he frowned and looked at him, then stood by the side of the road.

"Instructor Lin, you and Xu Hong should know each other." She straight to the point.

Lin Qingsong nodded puzzled, "You know her too?"

Xu Nannan said unhappily, "I suggest you go to the mine to inquire about the relationship between Xu Hong and me. Although we are colleagues, there is no rule that colleagues should get along well. Originally, it was fine for us to be ordinary colleagues, but now I am a little I don’t want to talk to you either. I hope you don’t pester me anymore, otherwise you’ll just cause trouble to me.”

After speaking bluntly, Xu Nannan turned his head and left.

What she said was from the bottom of her heart. Before, she felt that the big back was too familiar and not serious, so she didn't want to touch it. Now knowing that he and Xu Hong are on the same road, it is even more respectful and far away.

Lin Qingsong didn't expect Xu Nannan to say such a thing, and he wanted to continue talking to her, but seeing the disgust in her eyes, he couldn't do it. He simply turned around and went back to the mine to find someone to inquire about the relationship between the officer and Xu Hong.

After a while, Lin Qingsong walked home with a bitter face.

Nie Yuan!

Back home, Lin Qingsong was depressed and frowning. I wanted to talk to someone, but found that his brother was looking for clothes.

This is unprecedented.

"Brother, why have you started to learn how to flip things like me?"

Lin Qingbai stared at the clothes on the bed with a serious face, "There will be something that is not suitable for wearing military uniforms tomorrow, so naturally you have to dress appropriately."

"What's the matter?" Lin Qingsong didn't care about his own trivial matters, and looked at his elder brother with a gossiping face. In these years, he hadn't seen his elder brother working hard on his clothes.

"Business, don't meddle in it." Lin Qingbai picked and picked, and finally picked out a white shirt and army green pants.

Shoes... well, black pointed-toe shoes would be better.

The next day, Lin Qingbai ignored Lin Qingsong's dissatisfaction and flew away on his bicycle.

Xu Nannan also put on the newly bought Bragi in the morning.

The yellow Bragi set off the color of her face more and more vividly. Grandma Yu saw it and kept praising it for being beautiful.

"It's time to put it on."

It's mid-June, and some young lesbians in the factory are wearing bright clothes, but my granddaughter is wearing overalls all day long.

Xu Nannan tugged at her skirt, "It's not convenient to wear it when working in the mine." It's too eye-catching.

Seeing that the appointed time was approaching, Xu Nannan put on his bag, greeted his family, and didn't come back for lunch, so Xu Nannan ran out in a hurry.

Grandma Yu looked at her back and said with a smile, "What a big girl."

Xu Nannan ran all the way to the old place, and saw Lin Qingbai waiting by the side of the road pushing his bicycle. He shouted happily and ran over, "Brother Lin."

Lin Qingbai watched her running over, with a natural smile on his face. The long legs straddled the car and sat on it, "Quick, this time I will take you to a good place to eat."

Xu Nannan tugged at her skirt and sat on it sideways.

The car started to move, and there was a gentle breeze on the road, Xu Nannan sighed comfortably.

Lin Qingbai stepped on the car, walked through several alleys, and made several turns. The scenery in front of me is constantly changing.

Xu Nannan said, "Aren't you going to a restaurant?"

"No, I'll take you to a good meal this time. There are no restaurants either."

While talking, the car stopped in front of a blue brick hut.

Before entering the house, I smelled a fragrance.

Lin Qingbai knocked on the door. An auntie opened the door with some vigilance, and smiled happily when she saw Lin Qingbai coming. "Minister Lin, you are here. I have almost done everything here."

As he spoke, he opened the door wide and let the two of them in.

The aunt kept looking at Xu Nannan, and Lin Qingbai said, "This is my sister."

"It turned out to be Minister Lin's sister. No wonder Minister Lin prepared so many things yesterday. Big sister, your brother is really kind to you, this time it's all good stuff."

The house is not big, the main room has a single room, and the house is quite dilapidated.

The two sat down at the small wooden table in the main room.

"Brother Lin, what is this place for?" Xu Nannan looked around curiously, it didn't look like a restaurant.

Lin Qingbai looked at the kitchen, "The one just now was a master chef. His ancestors have opened restaurants for generations. In the old society, the restaurant couldn't keep going, so they worked as cooks for others. Later, they fled famine and came here and married a local."

Xu Nannan was very surprised. Just about to speak, the aunt came out with a big casserole. Put it on the table. Even before opening the lid, I could smell the fragrance.

Xu Nannan blinked his mouth. Although she is not bad at eating, she hasn't smelled such a delicious smell for a long, long time.

Seeing her like this, Lin Qingbai smiled and lifted the cover.

The fragrance is overflowing.

"I simmered this pot of pheasant soup slowly for a whole night." The aunt smiled and said, "You guys drink it first, and I will cook two more dishes. Minister Lin will take it this time." A lot of materials came over."

When the people left, Xu Nannan looked at Lin Qingbai curiously, "Brother Lin, where did you get these things?" Even the black market is not easy to buy.

"When I went down yesterday, I passed a deep mountain and tried my luck inside. I didn't expect to get it. You just got sick, and drinking soup is the most suitable for your body."

Thinking about what he had to eat today, he went to the countryside to find a fellow to collect things yesterday, but in the end he took a fish. I have no choice but to search for it in the woods by myself. Fortunately, I got a pheasant all the time. Good ingredients have to find a good cook, and Lin Qingbai thought of this master chef when he thought of some special people he knew after Nanjiang.

Xu Nannan took a sip of the soup, it was really fragrant and sweet.

Staring at the big chicken again. Two... one per person! Xu Nannan was not polite, and divided the two chicken legs.

Lin Qingbai looked at the chicken legs in his bowl, smiled, picked them up and ate them. Seeing that Xu Nannan's lips were covered with oil, he was happier eating.

After a while, the aunt came over with another steamed fish. Sprinkle a few slices of lightly green shallots on top, pick open the belly of the fish, and the inside is ginger and garlic.

I put a piece of fish belly in my mouth, and it melted before I could bite it. Xu Nannan's eyes lit up, and he put the plate in front of Lin Qingbai, "Brother Lin, eat this, this is delicious."

"Okay." Lin Qingbai picked out a piece of fish back.

After a meal, Xu Nannan couldn't walk anymore. The craftsmanship of this master is really good. It's not the kind of taste that will be made by seasoning in the future. It's the real original.

So delicious.

I also remembered that this time I agreed to treat myself, but it turned out that it was Lin Qingbai's.

"Brother Lin, I owe you another meal." Every time I want to pay it back, I feel that I have to pay more and more... When will I be able to pay it off.

Lin Qingbai drank his after-dinner tea slowly, "It's okay, there is still a chance in the future."

After dinner, it was still early and it was rare to come out to play, so the two simply went for a drive along the river. At this time, the river has not been polluted, the river is turbulent, and the willows are swaying. When the sun shines, it sparkles

Xu Nannan has been in Nanjiang for so long, but he has never been here to play. He didn't know that Nanjiang has such a beautiful scenery.

On the way back, Xu Nannan couldn't think of Shu, "Brother Lin, I had such a good day today, I don't want to go to work tomorrow. You don't know, there is a man from our mine whose name is only one letter away from yours. He has a bad temper Far away, very familiar. You don't want to talk to him, but he still insists on talking to you. "

With a creak, the car stopped.

Lin Qingbai put his foot on the ground, turned around and asked, "What's your name?"

"Lin Qingsong. It's only one letter away from your name, so I missed the name for nothing."
