Here, Division Commander Zheng was listening to the political commissar telling about Li Hongying's deeds. Li Hongying didn't dare to make a scene at the door of the division headquarters building downstairs. After being driven away by the guards, she could only take out her anger on Li Xiuxiu and pinched her hard several times.
At the same time, at Political Commissar Tang’s home.
Pei Xueyun got up early in the morning to work. Xu Fen rode her bicycle to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and came back. She saw that Pei Xueyun had already cooked a pot of noodles, and her brows immediately frowned.
"Xiao Pei, next time you cook the noodles, you have to wait until everyone gets up before cooking them, otherwise the noodles will all clump together. Also, you put too much noodles in here." Although Xu Fen had an opinion, her tone was still polite.
Pei Xueyun subconsciously defended herself after hearing this, "No, Auntie, I didn't put much in it. It swelled up because of the water."
Xu Fen glanced at Pei Xueyun, pushed up her glasses, said nothing, and just nodded, "Pick up the noodles."
Pei Xueyun took out a few bowls, poured some soy sauce into each one, sprinkled some salt, then poured in boiling water, scooped up the noodles and put them into the bowls.
Xu Fen saw this and frowned again, "Xiao Pei, is this how you usually cook noodles?"
Pei Xueyun was stunned when she heard this. "Yeah, what's the problem? Isn't this how noodles are eaten?"
Xu Fen was a little unhappy, but her good manners prevented her from showing it too obviously. "Okay, let's eat it this way this time! But my family doesn't like soy sauce noodles. Old Tang likes臊子面, and the kids and I eat noodles with soybean sauce or scallion oil."
Pei Xueyun responded modestly, "Okay, auntie, I'll remember it!"
But as soon as Xu Fen turned around, impatience flashed across Pei Xueyun's face. There were so many things to do!
When Xu Fen came out of the kitchen, she happened to meet Political Commissar Tang and Branch Secretary Tang coming in. Political Commissar Tang had accompanied Branch Secretary Tang for a walk around the camp early in the morning.
"Erwa, your army is so big!" Secretary Tang looked excited as if he had seen the world.
Political Commissar Tang said with a smile: "Brother, if you go to the military district, it's even bigger!"
As the two were talking, Political Commissar Tang saw Xu Fen coming out of the kitchen with a gloomy face. He looked towards the kitchen and saw Pei Xueyun busying herself. He asked Xu Fen in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay!" Xu Fen smiled at Secretary Tang and turned to go into the bedroom.
Political Commissar Tang has three children, two boys and one girl. The eldest and second are sons, one in the second year of junior high school and the other in the fifth grade. The third is a daughter who is only in the first grade of elementary school.
The house is about 70 or 80 square meters, with two bedrooms and a living room. Political Commissar Tang and his wife live in the master bedroom, and there are two guest bedrooms. Usually, the youngest daughter lives in the inner room, and the two sons sleep on bunk beds in the outer room.
There were guests at home yesterday, and Xu Fen arranged for Pei Xueyun to stay in the younger daughter's room, and Secretary Tang to sleep in the lower bunk of the older son.
Several children slept on the floor in the master bedroom last night.
Political Commissar Tang saw that Xu Fen had something to say, so he made an excuse to wake the children up and followed her into the bedroom.
"What's wrong? Are you dissatisfied?" Political Commissar Tang asked in a low voice on the balcony.
Xu Fen hung up the washed clothes on a hanger, glanced outside, and also lowered her voice and said, "You can't cook, and you can't work well! You like to find excuses when you do something wrong."
At this point, Xu Fen shook her head.
In fact, when Xu Fen came home from get off work yesterday at noon, she saw Pei Xueyun hadn't even cooked dinner and was just fiddling with her hair, so she thought this girl might not be someone who could work.
She wanted to find a nanny just to cook so that she wouldn't come home late from get off work and the children wouldn't have no food to eat after school.
As a result, she went home and cooked her own meal yesterday at noon. Although Pei Xueyun apologized, she also felt that Pei Xueyun had just arrived and needed time to adapt. But in the evening, when Xu Fen saw the dishes made by Pei Xueyun, she became even more dissatisfied.
It’s not that Pei Xueyun’s cooking was terrible, the taste was just okay, but Xu Fen just had an indescribable feeling.
Especially when she heard Pei Xueyun trying to get close to Political Commissar Tang, flattering and fawning on her in every word, and even hinting that she was a good cook and that Political Commissar Tang could invite his colleagues home for dinner, Xu Fen felt that something was wrong.
Every family is not well off these days, so who would invite people home for dinner for no reason?
Besides, how could a nanny encourage the host to treat everyone to a dinner on the first day of employment?
Xu Fen concluded with her intellectual intuition that there was something wrong with this girl.
However, Political Commissar Tang felt that Xu Fen was being overly sensitive. "She's only been here for a day, so maybe she hasn't adapted yet. Don't think too much. Even if the people brought by the branch secretary are not good, you can't let them stay for just one day and then go back, right? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the branch secretary?"
"Besides, it's hard to find a babysitter now, and we're both so busy at work, so let's just use her first!"
Xu Fen was just complaining. She knew it was difficult to find a nanny who was completely to her liking. The previous nannies she had found were either uneducated and had poor hygiene habits, which she couldn't stand and fired, or they couldn't even understand Mandarin and spoke in dialect, which made it difficult to communicate.
Pei Xueyun was still a high school student after all, and she looked clean, so although Xu Fen was not very satisfied, she still decided to keep Pei Xueyun for a while.
In the living room, Pei Xueyun brought a few bowls of noodles to the table. Secretary Tang frowned as soon as he saw them. "Why are the noodles clumped together?"
At this time, Political Commissar Tang and Xu Fen also came out, followed by three children.
Although the eldest son, Tang Dai, was only in the second year of junior high school, he was very tall and thin. He didn't say anything and just went to brush his teeth and wash his face.
The second oldest brother, Tang Luo, was a fat guy. When he saw the noodles were all mushy and smelled of soy sauce, he shouted in dissatisfaction: "These noodles are so thick, they are for feeding pigs!"
The third sister, Tang Xiangxiang, was a fair-skinned girl. She said considerately, "Second brother, don't say that."
