Before Yun Huaying returned home, the news that she was commended and awarded a big red flower had already reached her. In addition, her team was selected as an advanced collective, and the county awarded them a new tractor, which had already been driven back to the production team. The big red silk tied on the front of the tractor was fluttering in the wind.
When she came back on her bike, it was lunchtime. Jiang Yuan and Lin Shan were taking a nap at home after lunch.
After she opened the door and entered the room, she took out all the pork and other things in the space before the two of them woke up, and then went to wake them up: "Lin Shan, Jiang Yuan, get up and work."
"Huaying, you're back."
Lin Shan climbed out of bed, yawned, and asked, "Why didn't you come back for lunch?"
"I went to see He Jun and had dinner at He Jun's house."
Jiang Yuan also opened the door and came out. Seeing the large pile of meat in the room, she was slightly surprised. "Yun Huaying, why did you buy so much pork?"
"I asked He Jun to buy it, especially for making bacon. Come and help me."
Jiang Yuan immediately went to the kitchen to get a knife and a cutting board. Her movements were quick and swift as she asked, "Yun Huaying, how much did all this pork cost in total? You calculate the bill, and we'll split it equally among the three of us."
"Well, Huaying, let's split it equally among the three of us." Lin Shan also came over to help.
"I'll send some to grandpa and grandma first, and I'll settle the bill with you when I come back."
Yun Huaying took a big basket and put a big pig's head, a pair of pig's trotters, some pig intestines, pig stomach, pig liver, etc. She also asked Jiang Yuan to cut ten pounds of meat and a few big bones, and sent them over in a hurry.
The two elders also took a nap at noon. Seeing that she had brought so much meat, Grandma Han immediately went into the house and gave her twenty yuan. "Huaying, you spent money on the meat, take this money."
"Grandma, you don't have to give me money. This is my gift to you."
Yun Huaying would not accept her money. She put the things in the room, picked up the basket and left: "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm going back first. There is still a lot of meat to be processed at home."
Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan were both very smart people. Lin Shan had already found the trick to cleaning pig intestines and stomachs, and was now scrubbing them. Jiang Yuan had cut the meat into pieces and was marinating the meat with salt, peppercorns, etc.
"This meat is really delicious."
Yun Huaying herself couldn't help but praise that the pork raised in this space was so delicious just thinking about it.
She had just bought nearly 20 kilograms of fat meat and planned to make lard tonight. Jiang Yuan took the initiative to take charge of this task: "I'll make the lard tonight, and you two can go create the translation."
"Have you finished writing your collection of literary poems?" Yun Huaying asked her.
"Well, I've finished it. The postman should be here tomorrow and will mail it, saving me another trip to the county town."
The three of them were busy at home for nearly half an hour. They washed everything that needed to be washed, pickled everything that needed to be pickled, and cleaned up everything that needed to be cleaned up. After they were done, they put everything in Jiang Yuan's room and hid it. Then they put on their masks, sleeves, aprons, etc., and went to the soy products factory to work on time.
Yun Huaying received rewards and praise in the morning, and received a wave of congratulations when she started work in the afternoon. Many children came to her and asked to see her big red flowers, but she just gave them handfuls of candy.
Not long after she started work, the team leader came to find her, "Yun Huaying, come out, I have something to tell you."
Walking outside under the camphor tree, the team leader told her: "After the commendation meeting this morning, Secretary He called me over to ask about you. I felt like he recognized you."
"He recognized me when he put the big red flower on me. I also had lunch at his house."
Captain: "...You went there empty-handed? Didn't you prepare any gifts?"
"Uh, empty-handed."
"You usually seem to be very polite, but why do you forget it at the critical moment?" The captain didn't know that she was going to the He family before. If he had known earlier, he would have prepared some gifts for her.
Yun Huaying smiled and said, "It's okay. This isn't my first visit. I've been there twice before. His son and I have a good relationship. We visit each other frequently and often exchange gifts. I think the He family isn't particular about small matters. They won't care about this."
"Secretary He seems to have two sons. Are you close to his eldest son?"
The team leader had some information channels. His brother-in-law was a small county-level cadre. He had heard about Secretary He's family from his brother-in-law and knew that Secretary He's eldest son was handsome and capable, and was also a promising young cadre.
If she was close to Secretary He's eldest son, and Han Zheng knew the news, he would probably rush back overnight with a jar of jealousy.
"No, my friend is his youngest son. He has only met his eldest son a few times."
Upon hearing that it wasn't the eldest son of the He family, the captain subtly breathed a sigh of relief for Han Zheng. Without asking any further questions about their personal relationship, he reminded her, "One more thing. You went to receive the award today, and that bastard from the Gehui might be keeping an eye on you. Try not to go to the county alone during this period. If you absolutely have to go, ask Lin Shan or Jiang Yuan to accompany you."
The captain frowned when he talked about Li Wang, who was not a human being. But no matter what, he was a cadre of the Revolutionary Committee and his family had a background. He did not dare to have a direct conflict with him. He could only hide because he could not afford to provoke him.
"Don't worry, it will only take me a few minutes to deal with this bastard. If he has any dirty thoughts, I will turn him into a eunuch." Yun Huaying was not joking.
The captain said, "...his brother-in-law is the vice president of the Municipal Revolutionary Committee. We can't afford to offend him. He can ruin someone's life with just any excuse. You'd better be careful."
He meant well, and Yun Huaying understood: "Okay, I understand. I'll try to avoid him."
If she can't avoid it, she will turn around and kill him so that he can no longer harm others and help Yang County get rid of this cancer.
The captain had nothing else to talk to her about, so Yun Huaying turned around and went back to work. Just then, she heard Qu Dan and the others talking about the free clinic and interrupted to ask, "Sister-in-law Qu, has the free clinic started over there?"
"Well, it's started. A few women from the team went there this morning and said there were so many people queuing that it was nearly a mile long. They didn't get their turn that morning, so they just took a look and came back. Anyway, the free clinic only lasts five days, so we're not in a hurry to go. Let's go in the next two days and work first."
There is not much work to do in the fields now, but the soy products factory is very busy. In order to make money, everyone is working hard. The spirit of the members is different from usual. They are like they have been injected with chicken blood and are working against time.
We have been working hard these past two days and plan to send a batch of goods to the river port logistics department in three days. With the new product on the market, everyone thinks it should be able to sell for a good price. The whole team is waiting for the rewards of their hard work.
There are few machines in the soy product factory. Except for a bean grinder, everything else is made entirely by hand.
At the beginning, the products were of varying shapes and sizes. As we became more skilled, we made more and more standard handmade molds, and the varieties of dried tofu we produced became more and more beautiful, with a much improved appearance and quality.
The village cadres were quite satisfied with the soy products produced, but they were still a little nervous about supplying them in large quantities to the county town.
