Chapter 007 Chen Yuan is so lucky
While Chen Yuan was listening to the leader's speech, he held the bowl in front of Su Wan in his hand, poured all the wine in her bowl into his bowl, and then handed the bowl to her.
Taking the bowl, Su Wan smelled the alcohol, stood up to wash the bowl, and then returned to his seat to eat dumplings.
She originally wanted to eat, but everyone at the table was eating dumplings and vegetables. She always felt that eating seemed out of place, so she picked up the bowl, picked up a few dumplings, put them in the bowl, and took a bite.
The dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage were quite different from the dumplings she had eaten in later life. The dumpling skin was thin and the meat filling was fragrant, not as greasy as the ones she had eaten in restaurants in later life. On the contrary, the filling was very delicious, and she couldn't help but eat a few more.
The political commissar and Captain Zhao also praised Su Wan's cooking skills. They also asked carefully how the pig offal was made so delicious. They praised her ingenuity and said that Chen Yuan was lucky.
It’s not that Su Wan’s cooking is as good as a chef’s, but people in this era are short of food and clothing, and there is a shortage of oil and water. Su Wan used more oil in cooking today. The hot oil brought out the aroma of the food itself, which naturally whetted people’s appetite.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.
It was a rare opportunity for the children to eat such delicious food, and they all ate until their bellies were full.
The sisters-in-law helped to clean up the dishes. Seeing that the leaders were still talking, Su Wan quickly brought out some melon seeds and candy and put them on the table so that they could eat some melon seeds.
Turning around, Su Wan saw Wang Bin and Xu Weiguo, who had also been invited by Chen Yuan to dinner. Having had a few drinks, they turned to Su Wan and said, "Sister-in-law, thank you and Captain Chen for hosting us tonight."
"Have you finished eating? Sit down and have some melon seeds and candy. I bought them today."
"I won't bother you, sister-in-law. We still have things to do. Thank you for your hospitality. You've worked hard!"
After they finished talking, they left quickly.
Everything was slowly moved away. The sisters-in-law had already packed up and said goodbye to Su Wan one by one with their children. Even the sisters-in-law who had criticized her at the beginning said sincerely, "Xiao Su, your cooking skills are really good. You prepared three tables of food by yourself. It's really amazing."
"Sisters-in-law, you've worked hard today. It's late, so I won't keep you here any longer. The children should be asleep too."
"Then we'll be leaving too. Thank you for your hard work today!"
The sisters-in-law left one after another, and the leaders were still talking. Su Wan added some tea leaves to the boiled water, took a dozen bowls, put them on the table, and poured tea for them.
The political commissar had drunk quite a bit of wine, and his face was red with the smell of alcohol. He said to Su Wan, "Comrade Su Wan, you should take a break. There's no need to greet us."
Su Wan smiled and replied, "I saw that everyone drank quite a bit of alcohol. Drinking some tea water can help sober you up."
"Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Su Wan!"
The leaders still had things to discuss, so Su Wan tactfully returned to the house.
After tidying up the house, she saw that someone was still outside, so she took her clothes and went to take a shower.
After taking a big sip of wine, Su Wan felt a little dizzy. She was exhausted after a long day and fell asleep on the bed after taking a shower.
After Chen Yuan saw the leader off, he went to bed and heard the light snoring next to him.
It was just past nine o'clock, and Su Wan had already fallen asleep.
Looking at her fair face tinged with red and her rosy lips, Chen Yuan actually felt a little dry in the mouth.
What the hell!
He must have drunk too much, he actually had lustful thoughts.
He turned over, and the sharp pain in his back suddenly made him stop thinking. He didn't know if she was just pretending or if she had really changed. People say that it's hard to change one's nature. He didn't have any money, and having a child was expensive. At least for the next one or two years, they shouldn't have children.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
At night, he had a colorful dream.
Before dawn, he changed his dirty pants. When he went to the bathroom, he saw Su Wan's clothes. Thinking how tired she was yesterday, he took them to wash as well.
The sisters-in-law also got up early. When they saw Chen Yuan had washed the clothes and were drying them, they were all very envious.
As expected, women not only have to be reborn, but marriage is a woman's second rebirth. Su Wan found the youngest and most handsome battalion commander in the military camp. Now he is on the rise, and I am afraid he will be promoted to a higher level within two years!
The more I thought about it, the more envious I became.
Chen Yuan hung the clothes to dry, put the bucket away, and went to train.
Su Wan woke up at this time. He heard some noise and opened his eyes to find that it was still the 1980s. He wanted to close his eyes and sleep again so that he could return to the afterlife.
I stayed in bed for a while before getting up. The sun was already high in the sky.
It was just past six o'clock, and the morning sun was very dazzling. Su Wan stretched, washed up casually, and prepared to cook a simple breakfast.
All the dishes from yesterday were eaten up, even the soup. Fortunately, my sisters-in-law gave us some vegetables and eggs. The portions were not large, but they added up to a lot.
She was planning to make an egg soup and stir-fry some vegetables, but suddenly she remembered that the pig's heart from last night had not been stewed yet, so she hurried to check on it.
The pig heart in the bowl had gone bad after being in it overnight, and it was so smelly that Su Wan vomited it out on the spot.
What a waste!
She looked at the pig heart, which weighed more than a pound, with great distress and had no choice but to throw it away.
"Xiao Su, why did you throw away this good pig heart?"
Mrs. Wei happened to come over with a plate of steamed buns. She said to her with a smile, "I made some buns this morning. I thought you must have been up late after a hard day yesterday, so I brought some over for you."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I was planning to stew the pig's heart last night to nourish Chen Yuan, but I got drunk and forgot to clean it up before falling asleep. It would be a shame to throw it away, but there's nothing I can do about it. It's already stinky."
Su Wan explained and did not refuse Sister Wei's kindness. They all lived in the staff building, and when she had something good, she would bring some to Sister Wei to try.
Mrs. Wei was very understanding. "They're all filled with vegetables, so don't be disgusted. It's too hot out here, and you can't keep the meat until the next day. It would be nice if there was a refrigerator. But if you can't finish the meat you buy, you can leave it in the cafeteria. There's an ice storage there, and they won't complain if you occasionally leave some meat there."
"How can I dislike it? My sister-in-law is considerate of me. I am so happy. It also saves me from making breakfast."
"Then you eat first. I have to go back and take the kids to school."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Su Wan put the buns on the table and ate two. They tasted better than those sold outside, and she stopped craving for food. After eating, she planned to do the laundry, but found that her clothes were missing.
She then realized that her clothes were hanging on the bamboo pole at the door, and her underwear was all washed. When she thought that it might have been washed by Chen Yuan, her cheeks quickly turned red.
"I'll be out later." Chen Yuan walked back from outside and headed towards the house. "I got a salary of 224 yuan. I paid 20 yuan back to others. I asked Wang Bin to send 150 yuan home for me. The remaining 54 yuan is for you to spend. I also have 40 kilograms of food coupons, 6 kilograms of meat coupons, 4 kilograms of oil coupons, and two bars of soap for two months. I estimate I'll be gone for about half a month this time. If you need anything, ask my sisters-in-law for help."
