Chapter 88: Money bag, making money again!
Commander He seemed to be talking about Lu Zhanlin's future choices, but everyone in the cafeteria knew it clearly. They all knew that Lu Zhanlin's decision was to reject He Meijiao. Even so, He Meijiao was unwilling to give up and chased after him directly, causing a sensation in the military region.
Now that Lu Zhanlin is married, and even his wife has come to join the army, He Meijiao has been a little quieter in recent days. Finally, she no longer has to watch her running after Lu Zhanlin.
After Commander He finished talking about Lu Zhanlin, he turned his gaze to Xu Feng and asked, "You were the one who spoke loudly just now, weren't you?"
Xu Feng was stunned: Huh? What did he say just now?
Xu Feng wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, but Commander He didn't think so.
Commander He pointedly called out, "The troops are holding a New Year's event on New Year's Eve, and many female comrades are participating. Xu Feng, since you want to find a wife so badly, go and join us!"
"Commander He, I..."
"This is an order. Your marriage is also part of the organization."
Commander He had said this much, and even if Xu Feng was unwilling, he didn't dare to say no, otherwise he would be disobeying orders.
It's his fault for being so outspoken, now he can only bow his head obediently.
"Yes, Commander He!"
Commander He nodded in satisfaction. He had eaten and talked, then stood up and left, letting them continue eating.
As soon as Commander He left, Xu Feng scratched his hair in annoyance. You know, what he hated the most were those blind dates and social gatherings.
After all, Xu Feng is a normal man with a strong blood. How could he not envy the life of having a wife, children, and someone to hold while sleeping?
In his early years, he also had the idea of getting married, and participated in several blind dates and social gatherings arranged by the organization.
It was precisely these blind dates that caused Xu Feng to develop psychological problems.
Seeing his rough appearance, the girls didn't ask about his heroic deeds on the battlefield. Instead, they opened their mouths and asked, "Do you wash your feet before going to bed at night?" "I heard that if I marry you, I have to go to the mountains to follow the army?" "Do you eat eight steamed buns for a meal?"
During this period, Xu Feng went on a blind date with a girl from the capital. The girl looked exactly like He Meijiao in her arrogant appearance.
Xu Feng was a war hero after all. Who would have thought that he would be disliked for not washing his feet before going to bed during a blind date.
He won't stand this kind of anger.
Later, after seeing how He Meijiao was being unreasonable towards Lu Zhanlin, Xu Feng became even more wary of women.
Rather than having another woman controlling him, he would rather live out his life alone and be a comfortable, rough man.
But according to Commander He's words, he had to participate even if he didn't want to!
Lu Zhanlin was the only one who knew Xu Feng's thoughts. He sat aside silently, eating the delicious pork skin jelly made by Chu Yue.
Lu Zhanlin: Getting married is great! Why do some people just don’t understand?
…
It's noon again.
Chu Yue rode a bicycle and took Lu Yuanbao down the mountain and soon arrived at the market.
It was Lu Yuanbao's first time to enter such a busy market. There were people everywhere. His face was blown red by the wind while he was riding a bicycle, and his skin was numb, but it still couldn't stop him from looking around curiously.
His little hands tightly grasped the hem of Chu Yue's clothes. He must not get lost with so many people around.
Chu Yue had already set up a stall in the market once, and this was her second time, so she was familiar with the place.
She didn't pick a good spot, as long as there was space, she put the bicycle aside and let Lu Yuanbao stand slightly behind it. Then she took out the pig skin jelly, braised pig ears and pig intestines she brought from home and put them neatly in order.
Since they are all cooked food, we don’t weigh them, but serve them in large or small portions.
A small portion costs 50 cents, a large portion costs one dollar, and the large portion is just enough to fill a whole plate.
Chu Yue wrote a sign on cardboard and was thinking about how to start shouting when she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Girl, nice to see you again."
When she looked up, she saw the aunt who had bought five kilograms of pine nuts in one go last time.
The aunt was the same as last time, with neat hair and clean clothes, and holding a few big red lanterns in her hands. They must have been specially bought for the host's New Year decorations.
"Hello, Auntie. You are here to buy things again." Chu Yue greeted with a smile.
Zhuang Lan was particularly happy to see Chu Yue. "Girl, the pine nuts I bought from you last time were very good. My master said after eating them that he had never eaten such delicious pine nuts. They were especially fragrant and he praised me several times. Are you going to sell pine nuts again?"
"No, we sold out most of the pine nuts last time, so this time we're selling something else. Auntie, look, I made every single one of them myself."
"Then I'll have to take a closer look."
Zhuang Lan looked down at Chu Yue's stall. The braised food was quite ordinary. The family she worked for as a nanny was a wealthy one, and wealthy families did not eat pig offal. But that - the crystal clear crystal pig skin jelly was eye-catching.
"This... this was also done by you?" Zhuang Lan asked in surprise.
"Yes. Master, you can try it and decide whether to buy it or not."
Chu Yue not only prepared food for sale, but also prepared samples for tasting. She used a thin bamboo stick to poke a small piece of pork skin jelly, dipped it in a little soy sauce, and handed it to Zhuang Lan.
Zhuang Lan took the bamboo stick, took a bite, and her taste buds were instantly amazed!
She looked up and down at Chu Yue in shock. She was obviously a young girl, but her craftsmanship was so amazing. Even she couldn't make such pig skin jelly.
Chu Yue looked at Zhuang Lan's reaction and knew that the deal was almost done.
She asked, "Auntie, would you like some?"
Zhuang Lan asked, "How many do you have in total?"
After a few visits, Zhuang Lan bought some pig skin jelly worth about five yuan. After she got home, she put it on a white porcelain plate and arranged it into a beautiful and prosperous appearance. She took it out to entertain guests, which was both impressive and delicious.
In addition, Zhuang Lan also bought some pig ears and pig intestines. She bought them for her family so that they could have a delicious meal during the New Year and other festivals. She had confidence in Chu Yue's cooking skills.
The total cost is seven dollars and fifty cents.
"Okay, Auntie, this is your stuff. I'll give you ten yuan for it. I'll give you the change." Chu Yue took the money and turned to hand it to Lu Yuanbao behind her. "Yuanbao, here's two yuan and fifty cents."
Lu Yuanbao stood behind Chu Yue with a small backpack hanging around his neck. It was the purse Chu Yue had given him, and all the loose change was on him.
He watched Chu Yue greeting customers and never thought that it would be so smooth.... the product was sold for so much money!
Lu Yuanbao was stunned. Chu Yue called him several times, "Yuanbao? Yuanbao?" before he reacted.
