Zhao Lan was already waiting outside, along with Yang Guoqiang.
Yang Guoqiang's face didn't look very good. After hearing his wife say last night that she wanted to go to the army canteen with Ning He to help, he tried to persuade her in various ways, but to no avail.
I don’t know what kind of love potion Lao He’s wife gave his wife, which made his wife as determined as if she had swallowed a weight and insisted on going!
He couldn't sleep the whole night, and when he saw Ning He, he didn't give her a good look.
On the contrary, Ning He greeted Zhao Lan very enthusiastically. The two women were walking in front with a child.
The two men followed behind.
Yang Guoqiang said in a bad tone: "What does your wife mean? It's fine if you mess around with yourself, but you have to involve my wife!"
If this continues, he and his wife will end up getting divorced because of Ning He!
He Shaochuan glanced at him and asked, "Don't you want Sister Zhao to have a stable job?"
Hearing what he said, Yang Guoqiang was furious: "Work? What kind of work does a woman need? Isn't it good to take care of the house and take care of the children? It's not like I can't support this family!"
Yang Guoqiang felt that He Shaochuan was simply brainwashed too deeply by his wife.
He then earnestly advised He Shaochuan: "Old He, we are men and cannot be led around by women. Your wife is really going too far! Haven't you noticed that your wife is becoming more and more different?"
Yang Guoqiang's unintentional words made He Shaochuan look slightly stunned.
Next to him was Yang Guoqiang, who kept chattering, "Your wife didn't meddle in other people's business before. If one person is well fed, the whole family will not be hungry. Although she is not competent as a daughter-in-law and mother, at least she doesn't meddle in other people's affairs."
"Now your wife may be in trouble. Not only did she force the soldiers under your command to divorce, she also brainwashed my wife and asked her to go out to work. After my wife goes out to work, who will cook for the family? Who will wash the clothes? Who will mop the floor? Who will take care of the children? Isn't this a mess!"
These words made He Shaochuan sober up a little.
Ninghe has indeed become different.
Zhao Lan, who was walking in front, heard Yang Guoqiang's excited voice and couldn't help but turn around and interrupt: "Old Yang, you are so loud so early in the morning, what are you talking about!"
They were quite far away and could not hear what Yang Guoqiang said. They only heard his voice gradually getting louder, as if they were arguing about something.
Yang Guoqiang shut up instantly, his excitement instantly deflated: "We are talking about business."
Isn’t it business? If his wife really goes to work, his house will be a mess!
He had to persuade He Shaochuan and go back to talk to his wife, asking her not to interfere in other people's family affairs.
Ning He turned around and his eyes fell on He Shaochuan's face.
He seemed to notice and looked back.
The two gazes met from a distance.
He Shaochuan looked at those clear and lively eyes and tried hard to suppress the doubt in his heart.
He had only one belief in his heart, no matter what Ning He became, she was his wife, and that was enough.
They said goodbye at the army gate, and Ning He took Zhao Lan and Qian Lin to report to the cafeteria.
The army canteen is managed by the cooking squad. When they saw them, several comrades from the cooking squad happily called Ning He's two female comrades "sister-in-law".
Their kitchen team is responsible for meals in the army.
There are also different positions in the kitchen team, including chefs, cooks, breeders and supply staff.
To put it simply, a supply man is a modern buyer who is responsible for purchasing food.
A breeder is responsible for raising livestock and growing various fruits and vegetables.
The kitchen squad is managed by the quartermaster in the army.
They had never seen a military wife come here to help.
They expressed a warm welcome to Ning He and Zhao Lan.
"Sisters-in-law, please sit down. It's still early for dinner. Sit down and rest for a while."
Ning He interrupted the squad leader and said with a smile, "We are here to work. Although it is not yet time for dinner, we still have to prepare the food. Comrade squad leader, please take us to get familiar with the kitchen."
The squad leader originally thought that Ning He and the others came here just to have a job. He had even thought about it. When it was time for dinner, he would let the two sisters-in-law, one of them would be responsible for serving the food, and the other would be responsible for collecting the money.
The hard work in the kitchen still has to be done by these men.
But unexpectedly, Ning He asked to go into the kitchen to take a look as soon as he opened his mouth.
Ning He's words also made the squad leader a little unbelievable: "This, this is not good, right? The environment in the kitchen is not good, the two sisters-in-law will be responsible for serving food and collecting money, and we will cook the meal."
"Sergeant, we come here to cook for the soldiers." Ning He said in a firm tone.
"The soldiers are fighting for the people on the front lines. As military wives, we want to do our part for them. We come here to work today, and we can do anything and endure any hardship. We are military wives, and we are also members of the army. We are not here to enjoy ourselves. If the squad leader insists on asking us to do these simple tasks and not let us go into the kitchen, then we will go back first."
After Ning He finished speaking, the squad leader was completely dumbfounded. They couldn't be allowed to go back! The superiors instructed the sisters-in-law to work in the canteen. If they go back on the first day, the superiors will think that they have neglected the sisters-in-law. When they are questioned, no matter how they explain it, it will be wrong.
"Sisters-in-law, don't get excited. Sister-in-law wants to go to the kitchen to take a look. Of course we are happy to do that. Since sister-in-law doesn't find it hard, you sisters-in-law can do whatever you want."
The squad leader led the way with a smile, leading Ning He and the others into the kitchen.
Ning He looked around and saw the ingredients on the table today.
In addition to vegetables, there was also a large piece of pork. Ning He's eyes lit up and he asked the squad leader with some confusion.
"Squad leader, is this a whole pig?"
Isn’t the food in the army too good? This is a pig!
The squad leader explained, "Aren't the female comrades from the art troupe here? The higher-ups said that we should prepare these two sumptuous meals today to show that we welcome the female comrades."
So that's it. Ning He looked around and asked, "I see there's only meat here, where's the pig's offal?"
"Ah?" The squad leader looked embarrassed. "Isn't it appropriate to use pig offal to entertain the female comrades?"
It's okay for the soldiers to eat pig offal, but feeding this stuff to the female comrades in the art troupe, isn't that neglecting the female comrades?
Ning He almost forgot that pig offal used to be eaten by the poor and was much cheaper than pork.
But in modern times, pig offal is a good thing, and it is very delicious when used to make braised dishes!
When Ning He thought of braised food, the worms in his stomach were aroused.
"Captain, I'm going to use pig offal to make a dish today. Could you please bring me all the offal?"
The squad leader looked at Ning He hesitantly and said, "Sister-in-law, if the pig's offal is not cleaned properly, it will taste bad and will be difficult to cook."
Their kitchen team also cooked pig offal, but the taste was always very strong and no soldier was willing to eat it.
