While having breakfast, the kids started to express surprise about the fried dough sticks again, like a group of chatterboxes who had never seen the world before.
Qin Ming: "Aunt, aunt, this fried dough stick is so small, how can there be such a small fried dough stick?"
Ji Yang: "It's different from the fried dough sticks I ate at the state-owned restaurant."
Lu Haici: "Well, it's different from the fried dough sticks my aunt bought for me."
Lin Qingqing made small fried dough sticks the size of KFC, which are of course different from the big fried dough sticks sold outside. But she thinks that small fried dough sticks are more convenient to eat, and are also convenient for children to eat. "Then you try it, does it taste the same?" In addition to making small fried dough sticks with soy milk for the children, she also added a fist of noodles to the soy milk, because she was worried that the children would not be full with just fried dough sticks and soy milk, and eating too many fried dough sticks is not good after all.
Soy milk is also available. It is salty soy milk with dried food sent from my hometown. Mushrooms are stir-fried and added to soy milk, which makes it taste even better.
"It's just as delicious." Qin Ming took a bite first, "It's really delicious."
"Wow, it's delicious." Ji Yang also said.
"Mom, there are noodles in the soy milk." Lu Haici exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Qingqing: "Yes, so you guys eat slowly, and then rest for a while after eating. Don't run outside, otherwise your stomach will hurt, understand?"
The children said obediently: "I know."
The kids sometimes ate breakfast quickly, and sometimes slowly. When they came across something delicious, they naturally ate slowly. They ate from 7:10 to 8:00, a full 45 minutes, and they seemed to be able to eat like flowers. Finally, when they finished eating, Lu Cheng came back.
Lu Cheng was wearing a sweat shirt and training pants. He was covered in sweat, and his clothes were soaked with sweat. But the most eye-catching thing was his muscles. In the army, almost every male comrade had muscles, so Lu Cheng's muscles didn't look special. But in the Lu family, apart from Lin Qingqing and the three children, only Lu Cheng had muscles. So when he came, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but take a few more glances.
There was no way, these muscles were so beautiful that she couldn't control herself.
"Have you eaten?" Lu Cheng took a look at the dining table and knew that these people had already eaten.
Lin Qingqing quickly looked away, it would be bad if Lu Cheng found out. "I've eaten. I'll bring you some soy milk noodle soup. It's much cooler now, so the temperature should be just right."
"Okay, thank you." He was indeed a little tired, so he moved a stool and sat next to Lu Haici.
Lu Haici said, "We're done eating, Dad, please sit down." As soon as he moved, the other children followed suit. Suddenly, Lu Cheng was the only one at the table. Lu Cheng collected the bowls and chopsticks that the children had eaten from and put them aside. The room was still filled with the smell of soy milk and fried dough sticks, which whetted his appetite.
Lin Qingqing brought the soy milk noodles first: "You drink some soup first, and there are fried dough sticks, I will get them later."
Lu Cheng: "Thank you for your hard work." He picked up the soy milk noodle soup and took a big sip. The soy milk noodle soup was mostly soy milk. Lin Qingqing knew that he was thirsty, so she prepared some more soy milk for him.
Lu Cheng took a few more sips and most of the bowl of soy milk was gone.
Lin Qingqing came in with the fried dough sticks, and when she saw it, she said, "I'll fill it up for you."
Lu Cheng: "It's more delicious than the soy milk I drank when I was a kid." He still remembers the general taste of the soy milk he drank at that time, but he doesn't remember the specific taste. However, he is sure that it is not as delicious as Lin Qingqing's. In fact, it is understandable that at that time, everyone would put less ingredients in order to make money. Unlike Lin Qingqing, who used ingredients as if they were free in order to make the food delicious.
"I put mushrooms in it, so it's delicious." Lin Qingqing came in and answered him, putting the newly filled bowl of soy milk noodles in front of him, "You can eat it, these are all the noodles, we still have soy milk and fried dough sticks."
"Hmm. Why are these fried dough sticks so small?" This was the first time Lu Cheng had seen such small fried dough sticks. "Is that... how will we eat them in the future?"
Lin Qingqing said, "There will be various ways to make it in the future, with big and small fried dough sticks. The big fried dough sticks are so big that some people can't finish them. The small fried dough sticks are just right." Before she finished speaking, he finished a fried dough stick in three bites. Lin Qingqing laughed, "You are definitely suitable for eating big fried dough sticks."
"Thank you." Lu Cheng felt that he was being described as a glutton.
Lin Qingqing didn't let Lu Cheng wash the breakfast bowl, she took it upon herself. Although it was hard for her to make breakfast, it was even harder for Lu Cheng to grind soy milk in the morning. After she cleaned up the house, the two went to the army together.
office
When Lin Qingqing arrived, Hong Jun was already there, but Wang Lele hadn't come yet. It wasn't that Lin Qingqing and Wang Lele came late, on the contrary, they usually came about five minutes early, but Hong Jun came too early, and the director liked to come early himself.
"Good morning, Director." Lin greeted gently and sat down in his seat.
Hong Jun nodded: "Good morning, Comrade Lin." Although Hong Jun came early, she would not chat about work with Lin Qingqing and Wang Lele before 8:30. In other words, she is a good leader who will not occupy the personal time of her subordinates.
After a while, Wang Lele came back: "Good morning, Director Hong, good morning, Comrade Lin."
In fact, they didn't say good morning in the office before, but they started to say this greeting after Comrade Lin came. But Wang Lele thought that this greeting was quite good. The office used to be a little weirdly quiet, but now it has become much more comfortable.
Hong Jun: "Good morning, Director Wang."
Lin Qingqing: "Good morning, Director Wang."
At half past eight, Hong Jun called Lin Qingqing to discuss some issues in the plan. She didn't understand some parts, so she needed to ask Lin Qingqing. After asking, Hong Jun took the plan and left the office. In fact, she had read the plan all day yesterday. Hong Jun lives alone. Although she is married, her children are grown up, and she has grandchildren. But because of her personality and work, she does not live with her husband and children. Her husband and children are in their hometown, while she is in the army.
Office of the Political Commissar
Hong Jun gave the plan to Political Commissar Qu: "Please take a look. This is the plan written by Comrade Lin Qingqing. It will not only help save the troops' funds, but also help settle the wives of the soldiers."
"Oh? Comrade Lin's plan?" Political Commissar Qu was very curious. He had never thought about what kind of plan Lin Qingqing would write. And from what Hong Jun said, this plan seemed very useful. "Let me take a look first."
Political Commissar Qu carefully read the plan. It was amazing. No wonder Hong Jun said that. If the fields and barren hills were really used, it could really be done. With fields, there would be food, which would naturally save the army's funds. As for the work of settling the wives of soldiers, if the breeding industry develops and needs people to take care of it, then wouldn't the work come? And even if it is planting, people are needed, and these wives of soldiers will come in handy. Many of the wives of soldiers are farmers, and they also work in their hometowns, so they must know a lot about farm work.
As for the wages of military wives… they can be subsidized by the fruits of the harvest, and part of the savings can be used to subsidize them.
This plan is excellent.
Moreover, Lin Qingqing has investigated everything about the barren hills and farmland. As long as she notifies the county government and reports the plan, she believes the higher-ups will agree.
"This matter needs to be discussed again at the meeting. I will tell you if there is a result. However, you also need to say hello to the head of your material department." Although the plan is not under the jurisdiction of the material department, this plan was provided by the canteen, and the canteen is planned to be under the jurisdiction of the material department. So you also need to say hello to the head of the material department.
"Yes, Political Commissar Qu, I think Comrade Lin Qingqing is a very useful talent. If this plan is implemented, it can be handed over to Comrade Lin Qingqing to be responsible for it." Hong Jun suggested. The reason why she made this suggestion was also for Lin Qingqing. She didn't want the plan written by Lin Qingqing to be handed over to others in the end, so that the credit would be shared with others.
Mr. Hong is an upright person.
Political Commissar Qu said: "Of course, who can understand this plan better than Comrade Lin Qingqing?" He also understood Hong Jun's intention. In the army, this kind of thing of stealing other people's credit is not allowed to happen.
Family Courtyard
Lu Haici took out the new snack, Mahua, that his mother made last night and shared it with Qin Ming and Ji Yang, saying, "This is the Mahua that my mother made. It's smaller than a small fried dough stick. This one is sweet, and this one is salty." The sweet one, of course, has sugar in it, and the color is the same as the fried dough stick. The salty one has dried Enteromorpha in it, and the color is a bit dark green.
"This is the same as the small fried dough sticks, only smaller ones. I've never eaten this." Qin Ming said while looking at the salty fried dough sticks.
Lu Haici: "Then you try it." He gave two sweet ones and two salty ones to each of his two friends.
Qin Ming: "Well, let me try it first." He took a bite of the salty one. The dried enteromorpha tasted very fragrant. Qin Ming sniffed hard twice, "This tastes better than potato chips. I like this."
Ji Yang also ate the salty one: "Delicious, delicious, I like this. Lu Haici, can I change this small fried dough stick to a salty one?"
Seeing that he still had a lot, Lu Haici said, "Sure, I'll change it for you."
"Lu Haici, I want to change too." Qin Ming also said.
"Okay, I'll change it for you." Lu Haici took back their sweet fried dough sticks and gave them the salty fried dough sticks.
I have to say that although everyone has never tasted dried Enteromorpha, they still like the taste quite a lot.
After changing the twist, Lu Haici said, "Qin Ming, I asked my mother yesterday. Your mother is afraid of your grandmother, but my mother is not afraid of my grandmother."
"Ah? Why? I think all mothers are afraid of grandma." Qin Ming was a little confused, but said, "Your mother is really amazing."
"Of course, my mother is the best mother." Lu Haici boasted. "My mother also said that when she gets her salary, she will buy me two comic books. When my mother buys me comic books, we can read new comic books." He also flipped out his sketchbook and said, "Look, this is my new drawing."
"What is this?" Qin Ming asked. They had all seen Lu Haici's picture book, which showed the animals in the zoo, and now there were other animals.
"This is the big yellow dog at my uncle's house, and this... this is the little yellow chicken on Ji Yang's underwear." Lu Haici said.
"Really? Look, it's just like my little yellow chicken." Ji Yang took off his trousers and showed his underwear to Qin Ming. There was indeed a little yellow chicken on the underwear.
Qin Ming looked at it and touched Ji Yang's buttocks: "This little yellow chicken is so beautiful. I also want to ask my grandma to make such panties with little yellow chickens."
Ji Yang said: "Then we will wear the same panties with little yellow chickens on them, Lu Haici, you can also ask your mother to make these panties."
"I don't want it." Lu Haici shook his head, "I like big yellow dogs, I like Sun Wukong, and I like big tigers."
Ji Yang looked at the Monkey King and the big tiger in the picture book, and then looked at the little yellow chicken on himself: "Okay, then I will ask my mother to make me some small pants for the big tiger."
Qin Ming heard this and said, "Then I want to have Big Tiger's panties, too."
Ji Yang: "Great, we wear the same panties."
Lu Haici chuckled: "Good friends, eat fried dough sticks together, eat soy milk and fried dough sticks together, and wear big tiger shorts together."
Qin Ming: "We are all good friends, la la la..."
So at noon, when Lu Cheng, Lin Qingqing and Lu Haici were having lunch together, Lu Haici asked: "Mom, can I have a pair of big tiger panties? I don't have comic books." He knew that one should not be too greedy. Mom cost money to buy comic books and panties, so he could only have one.
"Big Tiger's panties?" Lin Qingqing didn't understand for a moment and looked at Lu Cheng, "Do you understand?"
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.
Lu Haici said: "There is a little yellow chicken on Ji Yang's underwear. We want to wear the same underwear, but we don't like little yellow chickens. We want big tigers, the big tigers we saw in the zoo. We are good friends, so we should wear the same underwear."
So that's how it is.
Lin Qingqing said, "How about this? I'll still buy you comic books. If you wash your own clothes this month, I'll make you some panties with a big tiger on them. How about that?"
When Lu Haici heard this, he thought it was great. "Really?"
"real."
Although Lin Qingqing had negotiated terms with Lu Haici, she was bored at night after get off work, so she took out the cloth and made panties for Lu Haici. It was quite fast to make a pair of panties, but the key was how the big tiger would do it
Lin Qingqing didn't know how to make a big tiger, so she drew a cartoon tiger on paper with a pen, then put the paper on the bed and used a sewing machine to sew it into the shape of a cartoon tiger.
Lin Qingqing looked at the big tiger made of yellow thread and was quite satisfied. After it was done, she put it directly into the drawer. Since it was a transaction, she naturally had to wait until the child completed the task before giving it.
Lu Haici's task had not been completed yet, but the report about Lin Qingqing in the Logistics Department caused a sensation.
At the meeting of the Logistics Department, Political Commissar Qu asked everyone to read the plan and analyzed it in depth. Although Lin Qingqing's plan had been investigated by herself, Political Commissar Qu had to confirm it before he could bring it to the meeting of the Logistics Department. In the past few days, Political Commissar Qu personally confirmed the things mentioned in Lin Qingqing's plan.
After reading the plan, the comrades in the logistics department were also very surprised. It should be said that in this era when everyone is particular about doing things, no one has ever considered using local farming as a way to feed a troop.
"Seeing this plan reminded me of the past. When we were at war, we had no food, and it was all raised by the common people."
"Yes, now that you have land, you have not thought of using it to support yourself. You are really old and your brain is not working anymore."
"If the county government agrees to let our troops use the fields and barren hills here, we will certainly have no problem with that."
Political Commissar Qu: "Whether the county government agrees or not is secondary. If this matter is reported to higher authorities and approved, the county government will not agree."
"That's right. Since Political Commissar Qu has done the investigation, we can rest assured. But I noticed that the person who wrote this plan is Lin Qingqing? Is she the new female soldier in the cafeteria? The one who cooks delicious food?"
"Yes, that's right." Political Commissar Qu said, "When we recruited her, we definitely didn't expect her to have this ability. And what everyone doesn't know is that her political background is also somewhat related to our army."
"What do you mean?"
"Lu Cheng is the regiment commander, and she was first a military wife, so naturally she has a relationship with our army."
"That's not it." Political Commissar Qu took out Lin Qingqing's political review report and said, "Please take a look. In the early years before the establishment of the new country, Comrade Lin Qingqing's great-grandfather and grandfather helped us a lot."
The leaders present read Lin Qingqing's political review report one by one. After reading it, they were also shocked: "I really didn't expect that the Lin family can be considered one of our own."
"No wonder they were able to cultivate a good comrade like Comrade Lin Qingqing. It turns out it's genetic."
"That's right. The ancestors of the Lin family were heroes, and Lin Qingqing is as brave as any man."
Political Commissar Qu: "But everyone has to keep this matter confidential."
"Of course."
"All the ministers present here know that there are some things they can talk about, and some things they cannot reveal even to their bedmates. This is their oath."
Political Commissar Qu: "Then I will submit this plan as soon as possible. Next, we will wait for good news."
capital
When the military received the plan from the local government, it still didn't quite understand. When the military leader finished reading the plan, he felt nervous. If the local troops could grow food to feed the entire army, it would definitely be a great benefit to the country's finances. Similarly, he, the military leader, would not have to worry about the troops' funds all day long, at least he could put his mind at ease.
Therefore, the military leader took the plan and immediately went to see the top leader.
The senior leader was signing documents in his office. When he saw the military leader coming, he smiled and said, "Every time you come to me, I always feel a lot of pressure."
"This is a good thing." The military leader's face was full of joy.
oh
The big boss looked at his old friend's expression and thought, this is really a good thing
"Let's talk about it after you finish reading this." The military leader did not waste time and directly gave the plan to the senior leader.
The leader took it... "This..." After reading the plan, he looked at the military leader with a little surprise, "If this plan is implemented locally, it can indeed reduce expenses. Our country may not have anything else, but we have a large area, so we are not afraid of not having fields for planting."
The military leader said: "I think so too, but this plan can be implemented in the troops there first. If it is implemented well, it can be extended to all troops."
The two smiled at each other, and both understood each other's thoughts.
So at the end of August, the X County government received a secret document issued by the capital. After receiving the document, the county magistrate, along with several senior officials, personally came to the army.
When Political Commissar Qu heard that the county magistrate had arrived, he personally invited him to his office. After the two exchanged pleasantries, the county magistrate said directly, "Political Commissar Qu, I received a secret document from the capital regarding the army's requisition of farmland and wasteland. I don't quite understand it, so I came to talk to you."
"This is very simple." Political Commissar Qu said, "Our troops are going to requisition the fields and wastelands near the troops. The fields here are empty, and as for the wastelands, we will requisition them..." Political Commissar Qu repeated the plan. The county government would know about this plan sooner or later. As long as they started planning, the county government would be able to understand it without asking, so Political Commissar Qu said it clearly.
"I see. Of course there is no problem. If the army needs our county government's cooperation, just tell us." The county magistrate agreed readily. First, the document issued by the capital did not allow their county government to refuse. Second, if this matter was accomplished, it might be a good thing for his achievements and the development of the county. Third, this matter would not affect their county government and the county.
He was just doing it for convenience, so why not
Political Commissar Qu: "I will introduce someone to you. From now on, this matter will be handed over to that comrade."
…
Lin Qingqing was in the office. She had some free time these days. The menus for each canteen in September had been decided, and she was also waiting for the results of the plan, so she had nothing to do first. She asked Wang Lele for the prices of the dishes to find out.
Boom boom boom…
There was a knock on the office door at this time.
Lin Qingqing, Wang Lele and Hong Jun all looked outside and saw that it was Political Commissar Qu, who was accompanied by two unfamiliar male comrades. One of them looked very imposing, while the other should be an assistant or clerk.
"Political Commissar Qu." Hong Jun stood up, and Lin Qingqing and others followed her.
Political Commissar Qu said, "This is the county magistrate. He received a document from the capital and fully supports our plan to utilize our farmland and barren hills."
Hearing this, Lin Qingqing's eyes lit up. Is the plan successful
Then Political Commissar Qu introduced the plan to the county magistrate: "This is Director Hong Junhong, the supervisor of this plan, and this is Comrade Lin Qingqing, the executor of this plan. Lin Qingqing and the county magistrate will coordinate this matter in the future. If Lin Qingqing can't make a decision, the county magistrate can look for Director Hong." Political Commissar Qu's words were also to save face for Director Hong. In fact, they all knew that in this plan, there was nothing that Lin Qingqing couldn't make a decision on.
