Chapter 149 Xiaobei seems to be in trouble

"Little Ji, the educated youth, said that I haven't seen Lu Yao in the village since the beginning of the spring. Their transportation company is so busy, so they must get a lot of salary a month, right? My family's construction team also works after the New Year, and I can get an extra 5 yuan a month just from subsidies!"

He spoke with such pride that his intentions were very obvious!

You don't need to look at the person to know that this is Huang Ailan, the daughter-in-law who is in charge of lunch. In fact, in order to get this lucrative job of cooking, she even had a big fight with her mother-in-law.

There is no way, everyone wants to do the job of cooking. After all, as the chef, cooking is a job that can make things more convenient for you!

Although the final result still has to be elected by the villagers, only one person per household is eligible to register, and you have to be recognized as diligent and capable. We can't just let you go to the cafeteria to enjoy the benefits!

Huang Ailan's reputation in the village can only be described as clean, but she is not considered capable. As for what she paid behind the scenes to be able to work in the cafeteria, no one knows!

"Yes, the class subsidy will be more. Aren't we going to get married soon? Lu Yao said that we should work harder now and earn more so that our family can have more money after we get married!"

She said with a smile, not stopping the work of washing potatoes in her hands. Compared with the hard work of digging the ground and carrying manure, although the work in the canteen was also tiring, by comparison, it was still easier to just cook one meal at lunch.

Therefore, she took it very seriously.

She did not avoid the villagers' inquiry and gave a serious explanation. No matter what the truth was, at least she had to let the villagers know that although the Lu family was well off, it was also earned by Lu Yao through hard work!

"Yes, that's right. Now that we're getting married, the life of a young couple will definitely be different from that of a single couple. As the old saying goes, if you don't plan well, you'll be poor. Lu Yao has understood this since he was a child. He is a calculating person!"

Aunt Jiubao's wife said with satisfaction that Lu Yao was a child who was raised by them and they had a close relationship with him. Therefore, they were very satisfied with Lu Yao and Ji Wanru, the young wife who had half a foot in the Lu family!

"The staple food is wild vegetable dumplings. You two will help me make the dumplings later."

The wild vegetables were dug up from the mountain the afternoon before. Spring is the time when all kinds of wild vegetables grow wildly. The freshly picked wild vegetables are blanched and mixed with cornmeal to make steamed wild vegetable dumplings that do not make your throat ache. This is the main meal during the spring farming season.

The key to a big pot meal is to make sure the size is even. No one would complain if the vegetable dumplings we usually eat are a little bigger or a little smaller. But when making a big pot meal, if the sizes are uneven, it will affect unity.

The next day's lunch consisted of leafy vegetable dumplings and cabbage and potato soup. Although there was no meat, it was made with animal oil. When it was time for lunch, the food came out of the pot. While it was still hot, my aunt took out a large bowl that she had prepared, served her own portion and put it aside!

"Pull the spoon down and scoop up what you can. Look, do it like me! Hurry up, the rest of you, serve it like me and put it aside first. Don't wait until the members have finished their meals and we are left with nothing to eat."

This bowl is full of dry goods!

Wanru and Sufen, the two newbies, have learned this skill very well!

What are you waiting for? No one is stupid, and it is quite easy to accept such an act. After a moment of surprise, Wanru already had a bowl full of cabbage and potatoes in her hands.

If she can’t finish it, there’s still Xiaobei and Mei Ting to eat. With so many friends, it’s a blessing to share!

In this case, I really look forward to the team’s dinner. I heard that they will slaughter a pig next year!

Seeing that the time was almost up, everyone quickly poured the hot soup into the prepared wooden barrels and took two pots of wild vegetable dumplings. Auntie led a seasoned new member, Auntie Sufen, to push a cart to deliver meals to members who lived far away.

Leave an experienced person behind to take Ji Wanru and Huang Ailan to stay in the cafeteria to serve meals to the members who live nearby and come to eat!

The standard configuration for a strong laborer who can earn 10 work points is four vegetable dumplings and a bowl of soup, while the others are two dumplings and a bowl of soup.

After all the members had eaten, Wanru quietly put her bowl of food into the small basket, smuggled a small bag of pork jerky from the space, took two vegetable dumplings, and reunited with her little sisters!

"Ah, Wanru, you are so generous. There is also dried meat. It must be brought by your Lu Zhizhi!"

"Yes, eat quickly, there's not much, one piece for each person is a subsidy, otherwise you will be exhausted just relying on the big pot of food without much oil. Come, I have some food here, bring the bowls over, and I'll share some with you!"

My friend was surprised by the big bowl of dry food!

"No wonder everyone likes to crowd into the cafeteria, it's so affordable! Hehe, then I won't be polite. My spicy small fish will be here later, and you can eat mine!"

Du Meiting was not picky and ate the dried meat, potatoes and cabbage. She enjoyed it with the vegetable dumplings!

The few of them ate and chatted, and the short lunch break passed just like that. Ji Wanru watched Qiao Xiaobei and the others leave. Just as she was about to go back to clean up the messy kitchen, she suddenly saw a dark green figure coming quickly from the path at the entrance of the village. When it approached Qiao Xiaobei, it took the hoe from her hand and walked out first.

There is gossip! !

Ji Wanru's gossip was completely ignited. Nowadays, no one would help a female volunteer for no reason, unless this person had some ideas, just like A Yao!

Thinking of A Yao, calculating the time, it has been almost two months since the last time we met. I wonder how things are going after he went into the mountains? Whether she encountered any danger, sometimes, she hoped that time would pass faster, but also hoped that time would not pass so fast.

The busy farming season is over, and their wedding day is coming...

Oh, she was really worried. She wanted to go into the mountains to look for him many times, but her mind told her not to do that. She couldn't help with anything Lu Yao did in the mountains. She should just wait for him to come back at home. It was her job to not go into the mountains and cause trouble!

Suppressing her worries, Ji Wanru took one last look at Xiao Bei's figure disappearing among the ridges of the fields, and in her heart she mourned for three minutes for her big secretary brother in the city.

Brother Yu, it seems your competitor has appeared. If you don’t act rashly, you are destined to never get a wife.

Yu Zhen, who is still in the county accompanying leaders to meetings...
