Arriving at the cafeteria, Xiao Zhang, a familiar face to Fifth Grandpa, happened to be working the night shift. Xiao Zhang was only a teenager when she joined the space, and now her children are in kindergarten. Because she's efficient, diligent, and clean, she was voted the cafeteria's sixth monitor. There are nine such monitors in the cafeteria, working in three shifts.

When Xiao Zhang saw Fifth Grandpa coming, she thought the old man was hungry, so she quickly went up to him and asked what he wanted to eat so that she could help him get it. Fifth Grandpa shook his head and said that he needed two people to help stew the fish. Xiao Zhang immediately called two employees who were good at cooking fish to follow Fifth Grandpa.

These two people used to live in a village by the river, and they cooked fish in a big pot, which was very delicious.

When they got to the small kitchen, they took a look and saw that there were quite a lot of food.

Here are the many varieties of fish that Suihe just brought in on the cart: hairtail, tilapia, mackerel, crucian carp, salmon, giant salamander, and even tiny lotus seed fish. Don't be fooled by the tiny size of this little fish. Clean it, coat it in cornmeal, and fry it until crispy. In another pot, stew the cabbage and add the fried fish to the stew. Once it's out of the pot, you can enjoy it without a word.

The remaining fish are cooked in similar ways, except that some are fried and some are stewed. Crucian carp is best stewed, with some tofu in it and some coriander before serving. The taste is simply amazing.

Suihe, thinking about the fish pond, grabbed a lot of tofu and cilantro from several kitchens. She really liked crucian carp soup. When she was a child in Guanjia Village, her adoptive parents neglected her. If she was hungry, she would go to the mountains to find food. There was a very deep river on the mountain. Back then, because of the many wild animals, people didn't dare go too deep into the mountains. Only someone like her, who didn't care about her life, dared to go in.

The fish in the river had grown enormous because no one had caught them all year round. Back then, I caught one and roasted it over the fire. As a tiny person, I couldn't even eat one fish. So that's how big this fish was!

Ten years later, due to a famine, all the fish in the mountains and fields were eaten by the people nearby. There were no big fish in the river anymore, and he had no chance to grill fish himself. But the taste of catching and grilling fish when he was a child has always been in his heart. Now that his life is better, Suihe still loves to eat fish, even fish soup. In the forest where he was on a mission, Suihe told Li Yichen about his childhood. Li Yichen understood Suihe's mentality very well. Suihe was not eating fish, but missing that feeling.

Even though the living standards have improved now, I am no longer able to support my family. However, I was probably the most helpless at that time, and I feel very sad.

Seeing the pans of crispy hairtail already fried and the large pots of milky white crucian carp soup and braised hairtail almost ready to be served, Suihe went straight to the cafeteria and pulled out a cart of disposable lunch boxes. These lunch boxes were still the inventory of the cafeteria at Jiang Huashu's factory before the time travel. The workers sometimes bought them to take home.

The space after crossing over advocates green environmental protection, and never uses plastic products to pollute the environment. The workers are accustomed to eating in stainless steel lunch trays, and these disposable plastic lunch boxes have been gathering dust in the warehouse. Now they can be used for a good purpose (use them up quickly).

At this time, Xiao Zhang brought two more people to help, and asked everyone to pack the boxes according to the measurement standard of one kilogram per portion.

Professor Dong had just fully charged five electronic scales, and to save time, everyone rushed forward to help. Some were charging hairtail, some were charging crucian carp soup, some were charging braised tilapia, and some were charging lotus seeds and cabbage. The five electronic scales were almost smoking from exhaustion.
