Secretary Zhou said that starting in October, we will hold a meeting every two weeks, for five days each time."
"Once every two weeks? Is this until the Chinese New Year?"
"It will be over by mid-November, three times in total."
Jiang Tang said, "Secretary Wang, can you sell anything? Can you set up a stall to sell snacks? Of course, I'm talking about the village collective."
The man from Shilin Village said, "I think this is a good suggestion."
The meeting lasted for a long time, and everyone discussed in depth various matters concerning the autumn market.
After the meeting, Director Wang said to Jiang Tang, "Secretary Jiang, this time we're all grateful to you for coming up with so many good ideas. From now on, it's up to everyone to work together to make this market a success."
Jiang Tang nodded firmly: "Director Wang, don't worry, I will do my best to work with everyone to build our commune better."
Jiang Tang was busy with the chicken farm and hadn't been home for several days.
Early in the morning, Captain Luo brought He Yan and Master Zhong here again.
"Master Zhong? He Yan? You..."
Engineer Zhong smiled and said, "Secretary Jiang, I'm sorry to bother you for a few days again."
Captain Luo said, "Captain Yang of the exploration team hasn't found anything in such a long time, so we're ready to withdraw.
Engineer Zhong and Engineer He are here to dismantle the accumulator."
"Oh, please come in. You must be tired from the journey, Mr. Zhong. Take a rest. I'll go to the back and pick up a small melon."
Comrade Liu Xiulan had previously planted a lot of things in the vegetable garden in Jiangtang's backyard.
She hasn't been around these days, and the growth has gone crazy. Some of the vegetables have become old.
She just harvested a wave yesterday and put it in her space.
Captain Luo said, "Secretary Jiang, I'm going to the fields first. I'll leave Master Zhong to you. I'll ask your sister-in-law to accompany you tonight."
"Okay, Captain Luo."
He Yan put his and his master's things in the room they were in last time with ease, and then followed Jiang Tang to the backyard.
I asked, "Are reporter Meng's friends satisfied with the dishes I made last time?"
"Satisfied, very satisfied. He even said he'd come over soon. He said your food is so delicious. By the way, how long do you plan to stay this time?"
"About three days. I'll be cooking this time."
"No problem. Look, I have more vegetables than I can eat in the backyard. When you and Mr. Zhong leave, I'll bring some back for you."
He Yan agreed with a smile.
The melon is really sweet, and it’s the first time I’ve eaten ginger candy.
Mr. Zhong couldn't help but praise: "Life in the countryside is gradually getting better now, which is great."
Jiang Tang smiled and said, "It will get better and better in the future."
Mr. Zhong didn't rest for long before taking a group of people up the mountain.
Jiangtang also went to the chicken farm.
Seeing Jiang Tang coming over, Zhang Pengguo smiled and gave her a bright red tomato. "Secretary Jiang, you're here. Have a tomato first. What do you think of the fence we built here?"
Jiang Tang took the tomato and shook it in her hands: "Your tomatoes are growing well. Are they ripe?"
"There are some, but I keep the ones that are too ripe for myself."
"Well, it seems we need another batch. I'll ask the farmers' market tomorrow. This fence is pretty solid."
Zhang Pengguo said, "It's Director Jiang's good command."
Luo Xingmin, who was not far away, asked, "What's going on with Pengguo lately? Why are they so enthusiastic?"
Uncle Liu's son was an experienced man, so he just smiled and said nothing.
Lai Hua heard it, snorted, and said nothing.
Lai Hua waited until Jiang Tang came over, then called Jiang Tang aside and reminded her with a smile, "Secretary Jiang, you have to be careful. Zhang Pengguo's thoughts are almost written on his face."
Jiang Tang looked confused and asked doubtfully, "Comrade Lai Hua, what do you mean? I don't understand."
Lai Hua snorted, "Hey, Secretary Jiang, you were lecturing me a few days ago, acting like you were very experienced, but now you're confused, huh? Zhang Pengguo's concern for you is more than just ordinary. Haven't you noticed that the way he looks at you is different?"
Jiang Tang suddenly realized and smiled awkwardly: "I really didn't notice this. This... I wasn't thinking about dating anyone."
Lai Hua pointed at himself and said, "Look at me. I can help you deal with her, but you have to help me give this to Wen Lan."
Lai Hua said as he took out a bottle of ointment from his pocket.
Jiang Tangguo flatly refused: "If I give it to you, I'll be betraying my friend. Forget it, I don't need your help."
"You said it, don't regret it."
"Go back to your job. If you want a girl to like you, you can't just give her these things every day. Use your brain to think about why Wen Lan doesn't like you. You block her like a gangster all day long. Who else should you avoid if not you?"
"Do you think I can talk to her if she runs away when she sees me and I don't hide?"
"You're in a vicious cycle. I advise you to stop."
Jiang Tang worked in the chicken farm all morning. When she returned home at noon, she found that He Yan was already cooking.
Jiang Tang asked without hesitation: "What are you doing today?"
He Yan turned his head to look at her, not stopping the knife in his hand, and said, "Stir-fried eggplant with tomatoes, braised Chinese cabbage, and green beans with garlic sauce. Today's rice porridge. My master would like to drink some porridge, is that okay?"
"Okay, let's stick to Mr. Zhong's taste first. I don't mind. I'm not picky about food."
He Yan smiled: "I know you are not picky about food. I saw that you planted a few potatoes in the back and steamed a few."
"Okay, do you need my help?"
"You can help me light the fire."
The food He Yan cooks is not only delicious but also clean, as can be seen from the stove in her kitchen.
There was also a dusty seasoning area, and I don't know when he cleaned it all.
Mr. Zhong was really tired, so he went straight to sleep in the main room after dinner.
After He Yan packed up his things, he gave Jiang Tang ten yuan: "This is for this meal."
Jiang Tang declined: "Last time we came because we were unfamiliar with each other, but now we are friends. No need for money. If you are free that day, cook me an extra meal and I will keep it for myself."
“Rice spoils easily in the summer, and leftovers are not good.”
Jiang Tang leaned over after hearing this and said, "Comrade He Yan, have you always been like this? Has anyone ever told you that you're wasting food?"
Because they were too close, Jiang Tang's gentle breath blew on his face, causing He Yan to lean back unnoticeably. He coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment and replied incoherently, "Not yet."
"So now I'm condemning you for wasting food. Will you do it or not?"
He Yan smiled helplessly: "Do it."
"That's good enough." After saying that, Jiang Tang also prepared to go back to the house to rest for a while.
He Yan behind him gently reminded him, "Don't get too close to people when you talk next time, especially men."
After saying that, he turned around and went back into the house.
Jiang Tang was left looking at the closed door in confusion, feeling baffled and complaining, "This guy really has a serious mysophobia."
After saying that, he turned and went into the house. As he walked in, he blew on his hand and said, "No bad breath."
The room was too hot, so Jiangtang went straight into the space.
Talking to my best friend about my encounter with He Yan.
"You and him have a great connection."
