Lu Cheng was rushing home to have breakfast, but halfway through, he remembered what his comrades said, and he changed his route to the canteen. The canteen was making brown sugar buns today. Brown sugar is nutritious, and I wonder if she likes it.
The army canteen is free for soldiers, but of course the daily quantity is regulated. If it is not enough, you need to pay extra. But generally speaking, everyone has enough to eat. Otherwise, if the comrades are so tired from training every day and still don’t have enough to eat, their bodies will not be able to bear it.
However, since the army canteen is free for soldiers, some soldiers have family members who eat in the family compound. How is the canteen portion calculated? Of course, it is subsidized. Every month's food will be converted and subsidized to the soldiers, but there is no subsidy for vegetables. In addition, you can also go to the canteen every day to get your own amount and then take it home to eat.
Lu Cheng was on vacation last month, and he hasn't applied for a subsidy for last month's food. This month will be the end of the month in a day or two, so starting next month, should he collect his public food from the canteen every month and eat it at home? This matter needs to be thought about again. Because starting tomorrow, Lin Qingqing will go to work in the canteen of the third company's cooking class.
Then should he go to the canteen of the third company’s kitchen to eat
Lu Cheng came to the canteen, which entertained officers above the battalion level and their families. Officers below the battalion level were in the canteens of each company. So under normal circumstances, the food in the canteen was sufficient. When Lu Cheng arrived at the canteen, there were already people inside. He looked at the food and said, "Give me three brown sugar buns and lend me a bowl."
"It's Deputy Colonel Lu. Deputy Colonel Lu hasn't been here for a long time." The person in charge of the brown sugar steamed bun window was an old soldier. He quickly took a bowl and filled it with three brown sugar steamed buns for Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng nodded: "I was busy before."
The veteran also knew that if he hadn't come for half a month, he must have been on a mission.
Lu Cheng walked back to the family compound from the army. Before he even entered the gate of the compound, he saw Lu Haici squatting at the gate and looking around.
Lu Haici didn't have to go to school today because it was Sunday and children also had a day off. He wanted to eat the noodles made by his mother, which was called noodles, but his father hadn't come back yet. Lu Haici was waiting anxiously at home, so he simply waited at the gate of the family compound. He was a little tired of waiting, so he squatted down, but even when he was squatting, his eyes were still bright, and he kept staring at the road outside.
Seeing his father coming back, Lu Haici stood up immediately: "Dad, why did you come just now?" Lu Haici said loudly, his voice full of complaints.
The soldiers guarding the family compound heard it and looked at Deputy Colonel Lu curiously.
Deputy Commander Lu walked up to his son and asked, "What are you doing squatting here?"
Lu Haici said aggrievedly: "Waiting for you, mom made delicious noodles with soybean sauce, saying that dad worked hard to make money, and we should wait for dad to eat together, but I'm so hungry, the smell of the delicious noodles makes me even hungrier, so I came here to wait for dad." He was so hungry that tears were about to come out, so he could only walk far away so that he could not smell the fragrance.
Lu Cheng: So this is his fault? When he heard his son say he was hungry, he gave him a brown sugar bun and said, "Eat it. You won't be hungry after you eat it."
Unexpectedly, his son did not appreciate his kindness at all.
Lu Haici glanced at the brown sugar buns. If it was any other time, he would have eaten them, but now: "No, I have to go hungry so that I can eat lots of noodles with soybean sauce. Dad, do you want me to eat the brown sugar buns until I'm full so that you can eat my noodles with soybean sauce?"
Lu Cheng: "..." Why does he feel like his son is a little "spy" who can come up with conspiracy theories for everything? "You're really smart." Lu Cheng mocked.
But how could a five-year-old kid understand sarcastic words? When Lu Haici heard that his father had been exposed by him, his eyes widened immediately. He looked at his father and then ran home. He wanted to tell his mother about it before his father came home.
Lu Cheng walked. No matter how long his legs were or how big his steps were, he certainly couldn't run as fast as a five-year-old kid. So... Lu Cheng also ran. Once he ran, he caught up with Lu Haici in a few seconds. It would have been fine if he had caught up with him. He hadn't left Lu Haici far behind. He was just dragging Lu Haici along at a speed of about three or four meters.
Lu Haici was panting while running, and he was out of breath. He didn't know that even though his two legs were running as hard as he could, they couldn't run as fast as his father's two long legs. The little boy was stubborn, and he was afraid that his father would run faster and eat up all his noodles.
Lu Cheng would look back at his son from time to time. Seeing that his little face was red from running and his forehead was covered with sweat, a smile flashed in his eyes.
Gradually, Lu Cheng slowed down again and walked side by side with Lu Haici: "You run so slowly because your body is too weak."
Lu Haici hummed and hummed, not wanting to say anything. How could an adult bully a child like this? Isn't it normal for adults to run faster than children? If adults run slower than children, he will look down on adults.
"How about this, starting from tomorrow, you get up half an hour earlier and train with me for twenty minutes, how about that?" Lu Cheng asked.
Lu Haici gritted his teeth and was about to say no when he heard his father say, "Train with me. Maybe within a month, you'll be able to run faster than me."
Lu Haici's ears moved: "How long is a month?"
Lu Cheng: "A month is thirty days."
Lu Haici couldn't figure out how many days thirty days were: "Is thirty days long or short?"
Lu Cheng: "... Wait until your summer vacation and then go back to school in September."
When Lu Haici heard that it was after the summer vacation, he thought it was okay and not too long, so he nodded: "Okay." He must run faster than his father, and then say to him at the door of his house: An adult who can't even outrun a child is shameless.
The father and son ran to the corridor in front of their house and saw Lin Qingqing standing at the gate of the yard.
“Mom…” Lu Haici yelled, and he exerted more strength in his legs, surpassing Lu Cheng and throwing himself into Lin Qingqing’s arms.
Lin Qingqing didn't expect the little cub to pounce on her suddenly. She took a few steps back and almost fell on her butt.
Lu Cheng frowned when he saw this. He glanced at Lu Haici and saw the child's bright smile, so he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. However, when he heard Lu Haici's next words, he regretted it.
"Mom, Dad is so bad. He is an adult, but he still bullies children." Lu Haici pulled his mother's clothes, glanced at his father and made a face.
Lu Cheng narrowed his eyes.
Lin Qingqing: "Really? How did your father bully you?"
Lu Cheng: "Stop listening to his nonsense. Here, this is the brown sugar bun from the cafeteria." Lu Cheng handed the brown sugar bun to Lin Qingqing. When Lin Qingqing took it, he picked up Lu Haici, put him on his shoulder, and strode inside.
“Ah…” Lu Haici yelled, “Put me down, put me down, you bad adult who bullies children, put me down…” Although he was yelling, the little guy was not afraid at all, and his voice sounded a little excited.
Ji Yang from next door heard Lu Haici's cry and ran out of the house: "Lu Haici Lu Haici..." But when he ran out, he didn't see Lu Haici.
Lin Qingqing placed the brown sugar buns on the dining table, and brought down the mixed noodles. The noodles were mixed in advance, according to the time when Lu Cheng came, so they would not be as hot as when they were just out of the pot.
"I'll do it." Ever since Lu Cheng saw her hand get burned last time, he has been very active in serving dishes at mealtime, worried that she would get burned again.
"I'm coming too." Lu Haici followed his father. It was another day when he was blocked by his father.
Lin Qingqing: "Then move it yourself." Anyway, it's not hot and won't burn the baby, so Lin Qingqing felt relieved.
"Okay, okay..." Lu Haici said excitedly.
The noodles were really delicious, mainly because the fried bean paste was so fragrant. As soon as they arrived at the table, the father and son couldn't wait to eat them.
"Wow... This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten." Lu Haici picked up a noodle and slurped it. "Mom, you are amazing."
Compared to the big one, the little one is much sweeter. "Really? Because I made this for you, so I made it delicious."
Lu Haici's eyes lit up and he felt so proud.
Lu Cheng listened to their interaction and glanced at his son. He was thin-skinned, not as thick-skinned as his son, so he couldn't say such shameless words. However, "Eat brown sugar buns. The cafeteria only makes them a few times a month." He pushed the bowl of brown sugar buns that Lin Qingqing had put aside in front of Lin Qingqing.
Lin Qingqing raised her head to look at him, only to see Lu Cheng immediately lower his head to eat again. Only he knew that his heartbeat was a little fast at this time, thump thump. His heartbeat had never been so fast during extreme training, and his heartbeat had never been so fast when he faced the most difficult and dangerous tasks. When facing the most difficult and dangerous tasks, he was actually calmer, but now, he couldn't calm down.
Although Lin Qingqing didn't know Lu Cheng was nervous, she had a good impression of Lu Cheng, so she smiled and said, "Thank you."
"Mom, eat it." However, as soon as she said thank you, Lu Haici picked up a brown sugar bun and handed it to Lin Qingqing.
Lu Cheng: “…” This little bastard.
Lin Qingqing took the brown sugar bun and said, "Thank you, Haici. But I want to tell you something."
"What's the matter?" Lu Haici thought, is my mother going to praise me
Even Lu Cheng thought so.
But: "Hai Ci, when eating, you can't use your hands to give steamed buns to others. This is unhygienic." Lin Qingqing said. Although you wash your hands before eating, whether in this era or in the future, many people like to eat steamed buns with their hands. However, it's okay to eat it yourself, but it's unhygienic to give steamed buns to others with your hands. "But mom is still very happy that Hai Ci is filial." Fearing that Lu Hai Ci would be sensitive and sad, Lin Qingqing added, and took a bite, "It's delicious, worthy of the steamed buns chosen by Hai Ci, so sweet."
