The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 57: Fifty-seven cups of green tea

Views:

Wen Rugui's letter was sent to Tong Xuelu's house, not to a state-run hotel.

So Tong Xuelu only received the letter after get off work.

She was surprised when she saw that the letter was from Wen Rugui.

I never thought that he would even think of writing a letter!

She just happened to think about it last night.

Before reading through books, technology was already very developed, and everyone used mobile phones to communicate, so few people had the patience to write letters.

Since she has traveled to this era, she must feel the things of this era.

Tong Xuelu opened the envelope, and there was only one letter in it.

"Comrade Tong, the words are like face. I am very happy to meet you on Sunday. The tremella syrup tastes very good, and Comrade Tong's cooking skills are as good as ever.

After I returned to the base, I stayed in the laboratory except sleeping. The weather turned cold. Comrade Tong should always pay attention to his body. The military coat is still a little thick. I have extra cloth tickets here. Comrade Tong can use it to make some moderate thickness ones clothing.

I wonder if Comrade Tong would find it strange to write a letter from the same city? I am very anxious, please write to me. "

After Tong Xuelu read the letter, the corners of her mouth couldn't help rising.

It was as if someone had put a piece of sugar in his mouth, and the sugar melted, sweet from the mouth to the heart.

Wen Rugui really surprised her again and again. The letter was simple and didn't contain any ambiguity, but it showed his concern for him everywhere.

She looked at the cloth tickets, and there were actually ten!

Many families only have one cloth ticket a month, but he sent her ten at a time!

Wen Rugui is really kind to her!

Ten cloth tickets is nothing in later generations, but it is rare in this era, and what is even more rare is his heart.

It made her heart feel hot when she remembered it.

The point is that this person is not as dumb as she thought.

He left a question at the tail, so she had to reply, and when she replied, he would write again, so that over and over, the two got in touch.

Woo, so sly and cute.

Tong Xuelv didn't reply immediately, Wen Rugui sent her ten cloth tickets, and she wanted to think about what to send him.

It's not practical to make clothes and shoes because she can't do it.

What she does best is cooking.

She thought about it and decided to go to the supply and marketing agency to buy some ingredients tomorrow, and then make some snacks for him to send.

Tong Xuelu folded the letter and put it away, and when she looked back, she saw Tong Mianmian sitting on the bed and reading the villain's book.

I don't know if she understands it, she stared at the book with big eyes, and the two little jio kept going in circles.

Those little feet were white and tender, and they were too soft, so cute that people's hearts trembled.

She rushed over and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.

The little dumpling seemed to be startled, staring with big eyes and opening his mouth into the letter O, as if he was scared of a deer, very cute.

Tong Xuelv couldn't help but hug her and kiss her twice.

When she first realized that she was wearing books until the 1970s, she really felt very foolish in her heart. She is living a prosperous life in modern times, why let her wear books to a cannon fodder

Now she suddenly felt that wearing a book was pretty good too.

There are little cuties like Tong Mianmian, and big cuties like Wen Rugui.

very nice.

When she went to work the next day, Meng Qingqing still looked gloomy.

Tong Xuelu didn't ask her again, because she wouldn't say anything if she did.

She focused her attention on Liu Dongchang.

Liu Dongchang seemed to know that he was observing him, and he deliberately gave her a smug smile.

Tong Xuelu felt sick like that, she always felt that something was going to happen.

At noon, Fang Jingyuan came to the restaurant again for dinner.

After eating, she couldn't help complaining: "You don't have to rest every day in your work, I can't even go to your house to find you!"

Tong Xuelu squinted at her: "you actually just want to go to my place to eat delicious food, right?"

Fang Jingyuan's face flushed slightly: "I won't go empty-handed. If I go there, I will definitely bring my own ingredients!"

Tong Xuelv felt that Fang Jingyuan was not a good person, but she was not a bad person, and she was a good friend.

She thought for a while and said, "I'm going to make some snacks today, peanut cakes and chili sauce. If you want, I can make you one, and you can come and get it tomorrow!"

Fang Jingyuan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? Xuelu, you are so kind, I want it!"

As she said that, she quickly took out the food stamps and money from her pocket and shoved them in.

Tong Xuelu originally wanted to give it to her, but Fang Jingyuan didn't want to take advantage of it, so she threw the money on the table and ran away.

When she got off work, Meng Qingqing was still her cousin who came to pick her up.

Tong Xuelu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy peanuts, flour, and sugar after seeing her leave.

When she got home, she put the peanuts in a pot to dry fry them. After frying them, they crushed them with a rolling pin. Then, they added oil, egg liquid and flour together and kneaded them into a dough.

Then cut the dough into small pieces and press them into round cakes, brush the surface with a layer of egg wash, and then take it to the Wei's house next door to bake it.

There is a barbecue in the yard of the Wei family, which is very convenient for baking biscuits and the like.

She plans to find a spare time to build one in her yard.

Taking advantage of the gap between roasted peanut crisps, she went back to make chili sauce.

The red peppers are grown by the Wei family next door, and the reward is to give them a bottle when they are ready.

Before she went out today, she washed the red pepper and put it in the yard to dry. It was completely dried by now.

Chili sauce is not difficult to make. Chop the red bell pepper, add garlic, ginger, sugar, salt, and then add sesame oil and pour it into a pot to heat it up.

She made a total of six bottles of chili sauce, two for Wei's family, two for Wen Rugui, one for Fang Jingyuan, and one for her own.

Chili sauce is spicy and refreshing, whether it is cooking or noodles, just add some chili sauce to make it very delicious.

That night she made lo mein for everyone to eat.

The Wei family raved about both the peanut crisp and the chili sauce.

The backyard, the Fang family.

Fang Jingyuan's mouth was taken care of by Tong Xuelu, and now she feels very tasteless when she eats home food.

Seeing her lazy appearance, Fang's mother worried: "Jingyuan, why don't you eat? Is there something wrong with you?"

Fang Jingyuan shook her head: "No, I don't think this dish is delicious! Mom, don't scold me in a hurry. If you have eaten Xuelu's dishes like me, you will also say it is not delicious!"

"The food made by Xuelu is so delicious, and she said to help me make a peanut cake and chili sauce tomorrow, she is so kind!"

Fang's mother felt strange: "When did you become so good? In the past, the two fought like black-eyed chickens every day."

Fang Jingyuan: "Hey, she used to be young and ignorant, but now I think she is a very nice person, especially the food she cooks is really delicious! If I were a man, I would definitely marry her!"

Mother Fang: "..."

The opposite Fang Wenyuan heard this, raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Jingyuan, Tong Xuelu's face suddenly appeared in his mind, and his heart suddenly felt a little irritable.

He saw that Tong Xuelu didn't come to him before, thinking she was trying to escape.

But now it has been three months since she left Tong's house, and she has never come to find herself again!

Does she really not like herself

But how is this possible

She has liked to follow her ass since she was a child. She has liked him for so many years, how could she just let it go

Fang Wenyuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and the corner of his mouth raised a smile.

Tong Xuelu really still likes him!

It's just that she has now changed her method to curry favor with his family!

Thinking of this, Fang Wenyuan's mood suddenly improved.

**

After two days of malaise, Xiao Liu finally got up today to drink water and eat rice.

Tong Xuelu breathed a sigh of relief.

This chicken was given to her by Wen Rugui, and she didn't want to let it die so easily.

The time for the chef's examination was suddenly advanced.

After she made her lunch at noon, she set off for research.

Before going for the research, she went to the post office to send things and letters.

As soon as she walked into the post office, she heard a woman shouting into the phone: "Zhou Yan, go to hell! I want to break up with you!"

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone, paid a dime and ran away crying.

Tong Xuelu looked at her back and felt that Zhou Yan had heard the name somewhere, but couldn't remember it for a while.

But time was running out, and she didn't think much of it.

After sending the things out, she hurried to the test center.

The place for the verification is a large kitchen. There are three judges. If the three judges pass unanimously, they can get the certificate of the master chef.

Those who take the test have to pay a registration fee of 50 cents, and the ingredients can be bought from the big kitchen.

The exam questions are to make a meat dish and a vegetable dish.

Thirty people came to take the exam, except for Tong Xuelv, all men, and all men over the age of 30.

When a group of men saw Tong Xuelu, their eyes showed contempt.

"Anyone can come and take the exam these days!"

"Maybe people just have more money?"

"What's more money is not more money, to put it bluntly, I don't know how high the sky is! How can you cook at a young age, and she is still a woman!"

"No, the food made by my family is simply uneatable!"

Tong Xuelu's face was light, and she didn't even give them a glance.

Seeing that Tong Xuelu didn't say a word, everyone laughed more and more unscrupulously, and engraved the words "look down on women" on their faces.

Tong Xuelu was ranked 20th, and the nineteen men who entered in front went in with their heads held high, and all came out with their heads lowered.

When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but get nervous.

Those who passed the exam didn't leave either, waiting outside, wanting to see who would be the first to get the chef's certificate today.

Soon it was Tong Xuelu's turn.

One of the judges asked, "What are you going to cook today?"

Tong Xue said greenly: "The meat dish is fried pork with peppers, and the vegetarian dish is hot and sour shredded potatoes."

The three judges shook their heads when they heard the words, thinking that these two dishes are too ordinary, and it is difficult to make a good color.

A group of big men outside also grinned, thinking that women really can't get into the kitchen.

I actually make pepper fried meat and potatoes. Is that delicious

Be aware that they choose either braised pork or steamed fish.

Tong Xuelv ignored the jeers around her and started cooking after saying a word.

It soon became apparent that something was wrong.

Everyone thought that Tong Xuelu was so young that she must not even be able to handle a kitchen knife. Who would have guessed that when she picked up a kitchen knife, she would start with the wind.

The action is very quick, without a sudden pause, cut the potatoes into shreds.

Such a quick action, none of the big men outside can do it.

"Look at her chopping vegetables, she seems to have two strokes."

"Yes, I didn't choose to make shredded potatoes, it's just that the shredding is not fast enough and even!"

"Well-cut vegetables may not be delicious when they are made. Otherwise, why don't the state-run restaurants in Beijing have a woman as a chef?"

Tong Xuelu was very focused on cooking and did not pay attention to the sounds around her at all.

When she threw the minced onion, ginger, and garlic into the frying pan, a domineering scent spread out instantly.

The three judges were stunned, and the big men outside were also stunned.

"It smells so good!"

"This taste is too appealing, I feel like I'm hungry!"

Both dishes were ready in no time, and a rich aroma permeated the kitchen.

The three judges picked up the chopsticks and quickly grabbed one.

good to eat!

Really delicious!

The chili fried pork is spicy and refreshing, the pork is tender and chewy, and the hot and sour potato shreds are sour and spicy.

If it weren't for the candidates behind, they would like to have a bowl of rice now!

They held several chopsticks before they reluctantly put them down, and then they gave Tong Xuelu ten points without any discussion.

10 is the highest score, and the people who took the test in front of you didn't even get 3 10 points, none of them!

The person who took the test earlier got the highest score of a seven, but one of the judges gave him a four, so he failed.

The judges stamped the chef's certificate and presented it to Tong Xuelv.

"Comrade Tong, the food you cook is delicious. I'll go to your restaurant to eat later!"

"Me too, especially the hot and sour shredded potato, it's so delicious! You can't grab it from me later!"

"I just like that chili fried pork. It's rare that pork can be so tender!"

When the big men outside saw this scene, their eyes widened, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

At the same time, everyone's faces were hot, and it was painful from being slapped in the face.

None of their gang of gentlemen got the certificate, but this girl they despised did.

And the fractions are rolled on top of them.

Remembering what they said just now, they suddenly felt that their faces hurt even more!

After Tong Xuelv thanked the judges, he calmly walked out with the master certificate.

Walking past a group of big men, she said in a low voice, "What can a man do, he can't have children, and now he can't even cook. To put it bluntly, it's useless!"

The faces of a group of men turned red and white.

Although they didn't know what the latter sentence meant, they knew that the woman was laughing at them.

They entered nineteen people, but none of them got the master certificate.

It's really embarrassing!

They will never dare to underestimate women in the future!

After coming out of the test center, Tong Xuelv was ready to go back to the hotel.

In fact, she was fine if she didn't go back, but she was a little worried about Meng Qingqing.

Just then, a man and a woman approached.

The man was holding a child in his hands, the child was lying on the man's shoulders, and he was covered with a wide coat, which was tightly covered, only the hair on his head was exposed.

They seemed to be on their way, and the two kept their heads down and rushed forward, just in time to bump into Tong Xuelv who came out of the research point.

Tong Xuelv lowered her head to think about things and didn't see them, so she almost fell to the ground after such a collision.

The man quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, eldest daughter, I didn't see you in my hurry, are you alright?"

The woman beside him also quickly apologized, both of whom had strong accents.

Tong Xuelu was just about to say that it was okay, but the man was bumped just now, and there was a gap in his clothes. Looking at it from Tong Xuelu's angle, he happened to see the child's arm.

That arm was white and tender, in sharp contrast to the complexion of the couple.

The man looked like he was in his forties, tall, with crab eyes and thick eyebrows, and dark skin.

The woman was in her mid-thirties, of short stature, with triangular eyes and high cheekbones, thin lips, and dark skin.

The two of them looked like the traditional peasant image, they were gray, and they looked very honest and friendly.

Seeing Tong Xuelu staring at the child, the woman quickly pressed down her clothes.

He also stepped forward to block Tong Xuelu's sight: "This is my youngest son. He has a cold and fever these two days. We took him to Beijing to see a doctor. Just go!"

Saying that, he will leave without waiting for Tong Xuelv to agree.

Tong Xuelv rushed out to block their way: "You can't go!"

The man didn't expect that she would suddenly run out to block the road, and said pitifully: "Daughter, please don't make it difficult for us countrymen!"

The woman wiped her eyes with her hand: "Daughter, please do it, we bought the train tickets, if you do this again, we will not be able to catch up!"

Pedestrians saw how pitiful the two couples were, and they pointed at Tong Xuelu and persuaded them.

"Daughter, you haven't been hurt, so why don't you let me go?"

"That's right, you see that couples are in a hurry, let them take the train quickly!"

Oh, let's pretend to be pitiful, right

Who wouldn't!

Tong Xuelu frowned, and her eyes suddenly turned red: "It's not that I'm unreasonable, it's they who stole my money!"

The man stared at him, his eyes fierce: "You fart! When did we steal your money!"
