Yu Nianbai nodded: "Our program must be presented to the leaders in advance and voted on before it can be accepted."
Ning He nodded, suddenly realizing: "I didn't expect this August 1st event to be so grand and rigorous."
Yu Nianbai smiled and said to her, "Don't worry, you are so smart, there will be no problem."
"I hope so."
As soon as the voice fell, the door of the conference room opened, and a female leader looked at them and asked, "Who is the representative of the kitchen team?"
Ning He stood up: "I am."
The female leader looked Ning He up and down, and finally said, "Come in with me."
Ning He followed the female leader into the conference room. After entering, he found that the conference room was very large and there were many people sitting inside.
Ning He was also among that crowd and saw He Shaochuan at a glance.
She raised her lips towards him with joy, and when He Shaochuan saw Ning He, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
It seemed that no one expected that the person sent by the kitchen team would be Ning He.
Jiang Yuanzhao saw the eye contact between Ning He and He Shaochuan. He coughed lightly and interrupted with a frown.
"What are you standing there for? It's time to start!"
Jiang Minke, who was beside Jiang Yuanzhao, glared at him and warned him in a low voice: "What are you doing? Talking so harshly!"
Jiang Yuanzhao's momentum weakened instantly, and he whispered to Jiang Minke, "Wife, we are in a hurry!"
"You don't even rush people when you're in a hurry!" Jiang Minke twisted his thigh.
Jiang Yuanzhao couldn't help but shiver in pain, but he didn't dare make a sound, for fear of being heard or seen.
Jiang Huaizhi was sitting in the back row behind them and saw with her own eyes how her sister controlled her brother-in-law.
After receiving Jiang Yuanzhao's instructions, the female leader said to Ning He, "Let's get started!"
Ning He nodded, put down the cloth bag and took out a stack of documents from it.
She distributed the documents in piles to each person.
When it was sent to He Shaochuan, Ning He lowered his head, lowered his voice and leaned closer to ask, "Didn't expect it to be me?"
She was speaking in a voice that only the two of them could hear, whispering something that was exclusive to them.
He Shaochuan looked up, seeing the smiling face so close to him, and his heart softened.
"Yeah, I really didn't expect it." He raised the corners of his lips.
Ning He pursed her lips and chuckled, put down the document, and when she pulled her fingers away, her fingertips gently stroked the back of the man's hand.
He Shaochuan was slightly stunned, as if he did not expect Ning He to be so bold as to do such a thing in public.
Ning He distributed the remaining few copies before returning to the stage.
"I believe everyone is wondering what the things I handed out to everyone are." Ning He said, and took out one himself, flipping it open and presenting it to everyone.
"This is a homemade 81 menu that I made. It has various recipes on it. Flip to the back and you'll see pictures of the corresponding recipes."
As he spoke, Ning He took out the actual picture of the first recipe and showed it to her.
"This is our main dish for August 1st. It is a giant cake with a cream border around the edges. On the top of the cake is written 'August 1st Army Day' with a hand-painted red five-pointed star."
Jiang Minke looked at the drawing of the cake and said happily, "This cake is good, very beautiful, and has a very good meaning. It's celebrating the Army Day. Doesn't it fit our theme?"
As she spoke, she looked at the crowd, and the people in the audience nodded, thinking that this was a great idea.
"Indeed, and the soldiers have never eaten cake, so we can make some. It will be beautiful and can also be used to celebrate."
"This cake is good, it works!"
There was no need to express any opinion at all, the cake proposal was perfectly approved.
Jiang Yuanzhao urged Ning He with a bad look on his face: "Go to the next one."
"Okay!" Ning He was in a good mood. He turned to the next menu and began to introduce.
"This is called fried chicken. As the name suggests, it is made by coating the marinated chicken with starch and breadcrumbs and frying it in a pan."
Jiang Yuanzhao's brows furrowed as he listened, "How much more oil and chicken will this waste? Celebrating a festival is not about extravagance and waste. This won't do!"
Jiang Minke wanted to say something, but under Jiang Yuanzhao's strong opposition, everyone shook their heads.
There was a murmur among the audience: "Indeed, this fried chicken is a waste. It's just a festival celebration, there's no need to kill so many chickens, right?"
"That's right, it's a festival, not a slaughter day. Killing so many chickens is too cruel!"
Ning He looked indifferent, she didn't think it was a big deal, just got rejected.
But she doesn't care, He Shaochuan does.
I heard that Jiang Yuanzhao took the lead in opposing it.
He was the first to express a different opinion and praised Ninghe's fried chicken.
"Festivals only come once a year, and it's a rare occasion to celebrate them, so it's nice to make something different for the soldiers to taste. Moreover, I saw the pictures at the back, and I don't have to use a whole chicken. I can use chicken legs and chicken wings to make fried chicken. I can buy them outside, and I don't have to kill the chickens we raise ourselves."
Ning He smiled at He Shaochuan, and then added, "Yes, you can make fried chicken with just chicken legs and wings. Fried chicken doesn't mean you have to use a whole chicken. You can also use just one part of the chicken."
He Shaochuan's words made those who had just opposed it waver a little.
At this moment, Jiang Huaizhi, who had not expressed his opinion for a long time, also expressed his views.
"I think fried chicken is a good dish. Since it's a festival, we should come up with some new dishes that we haven't eaten before. If we just serve the same dishes as usual, then what's the point of this festival?"
These words completely awakened those who had just opposed.
"Yes, Master Jiang is right. Since it is a festival, the dishes should be different from usual ones."
“It’s nice to try something new every now and then.”
"Fried chicken sounds really exotic. I really want to try what it tastes like."
Because of Jiang Huaizhi's speech, those who originally held opposing opinions in the audience also changed sides.
They knew the background of this Commander Jiang. He was the younger brother of the leader's wife and the commander of the Langfang Military Region. His status could not be underestimated.
Jiang Minke also spoke up: "I think fried chicken is a good dish and can be used."
After saying this, he did not forget to ask Jiang Yuanzhao beside him for his opinion: "Old Jiang, what do you think?"
Since the lady had said so, Jiang Yuanzhao dared not say anything more.
He waved his hand: "Okay, this is it."
A hint of surprise flashed across Ning He's eyes. She blinked at He Shaochuan, and the smile on her face deepened.
He Shaochuan saw a sly smile on the woman's face, and a hint of tenderness in her deep black eyes.
The first two dishes were passed perfectly, not to mention the proposal for the next hometown dish, which was unanimously voted through by the leaders.
All of Ning He's proposals were perfectly adopted. When she left, she bowed politely to express her gratitude and then left the meeting room.
Yu Nianbai, who was standing at the door, saw her coming out and asked her with a smile, "How is it?"
