Chapter 144 Dinner
Jiang Cheng looked helplessly at Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo, who were sincerely planning for her future.
"Can you two just be patient and listen to me?"
Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo looked at each other.
This glance united the two of them.
Jiang Cheng was speechless.
Would you two please avoid me? I'm still here.
"Principal, it's not that I don't want to go to the big city, I just don't want to go now."
As soon as Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Principal Wang and Manager Guo cast murderous glances at Shen Que.
It must be because of this brat!
Falling in love really hinders your progress!
Shen Que also raised his head.
Although he is in love, he doesn't think Jiang Cheng is doing this for him.
Jiang Cheng wouldn't let her do that.
She has bigger goals and a broader mindset.
Jiang Cheng followed the direction of Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo, feeling both amused and helpless.
"It's not Shen Que! Don't let your imagination run wild."
"No, let me finish."
Jiang Cheng looked at Principal Wang who was about to interrupt and continued, "Principal, it's not that I don't want to go, I just want to wait two years."
"With my intelligence, don't you think I'll be even more powerful in two years?"
"Also, I currently have a cooperative project with a food factory. After returning from the village this time, I have another proposal. I plan to cooperate with the machinery factory, textile factory, ceramic factory, and bamboo weaving factory. I have some ideas for that as well."
"I want to try everything I can, know how to, and want to do while I'm still young."
"I think right now I can play a greater role if I don't go."
After saying this, Jiang Cheng spread his hands and waited for Principal Wang and Manager Guo to refute.
But the two of them looked at each other for so long that Jiang Cheng thought they were deeply in love.
No, this idea is too terrible!
Jiang Cheng pulled himself back into his thoughts.
"Are you two shocked by my brilliant speech?"
Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo came back to their senses at the same time and looked at Jiang Cheng with different expressions.
Principal Wang sensed Jiang Cheng's determination from her words. He could only pretend to be disgusted and said, "Okay, okay, that's it. But you have to go with me to the night school in the provincial capital--"
“Hey, hey, hey, hey—you can’t do that! You’re just killing me after I’ve done my job? I just helped you persuade you for nothing. This isn’t the way to return a favor!”
Manager Guo was unhappy.
Principal Wang said with reason, "Don't say such harsh words! Besides, you didn't help me, so I won't get anything in return for what I have done for you."
Manager Guo was so confused by Principal Wang's sophistry that he couldn't think of any words to retort.
He was so angry that he looked directly at Jiang Cheng.
"Jiang Cheng! You go ahead!"
Jiang Cheng really wanted to give a domineering boss a wry smile.
"Manager Guo, when is your commendation meeting?"
Jiang Cheng saw that Principal Wang was unwilling to go, so he asked directly, "Principal Wang, when will you go to the provincial night school?"
Manager Guo: "October 22nd."
Principal Wang: "October 20th."
Jiang Cheng looked at the two of them with a look of "Do I need to tell you?" and said, "So can't I go too?"
All going?
Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo lowered their heads in embarrassment; they had forgotten about this matter.
"Why……."
"Being too good is a burden!"
Jiang Cheng stood up proudly, and asked, "Who's paying for the ride?"
Principal Wang and Store Manager Guo looked at each other.
"He's out!"
The two of them started competing with each other again.
Jiang Cheng shook his head and laughed, ignoring the two people who were pretending to be serious. It was time to have fun from then on.
The compound became lively because of Jiang Cheng's silly roe deer and Feilong.
The beautiful feathers on the flying dragon were taken away by Shen Yue, and Grandma Shen found a few copper coins and made a chicken feather shuttlecock.
A group of children were kicking around in the yard, cheering and jumping, having a lot of fun.
The entire robe was used up by Jiang Cheng generously. A big black pot was placed outside, and white steam kept coming out, bringing with it the aroma of meat.
Shen Que, wearing an apron, successfully became a chef.
Braised roe deer meat, spicy fried roe deer meat cubes, roe deer stewed with vermicelli.
Three dishes made with roe deer were put into the pot one after another, some were sweet, some were spicy and some were fragrant.
I can't help but drool.
Jiang Cheng even went over to watch the fun, and was secretly fed a piece of meat by Chen Que.
The two of them laughed secretly, and the aroma of the meat became several shades sweeter.
Grandma Shen is in charge of the Feilong mushroom stew.
What a smell...it's so bad that I can't even walk. I wish I could grow my head on the edge of the pot.
The little adult Shen Xing asked one more question: When can we eat?
He wasn't even happy about buying the soda just now because he was missing the lingering smell at home and his stomach was growling in protest.
! .
The food will be ready soon, let's work together to move the table and get the stools.
The Shen family did not have enough bowls and chopsticks, so the tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks, plates, basins, etc. from the Li and Sun families were all brought over.
Soon, a long table made up of three tables was set up.
The various bowls and chopsticks put together create a strange harmony.
The table is set and the food is ready to be served.
The Li family made braised tofu and a dish of fried bacon.
It can be seen that the meat at home is probably cut inside.
The Sun family brought braised fish and a large bowl of canned fruit.
Each dish was divided into two or three portions and placed on the long table as evenly as possible.
When the dishes were almost ready, Jiang Cheng opened a separate pot of broth that was made outside.
Inside are the bones from the roe deer meat, and there are also a lot of roe deer meat slices specially cut in it.
The meat is fragrant, and it can be served with a handful of chopped green onions or coriander.
Absolutely amazing!
"Everyone come and have some soup. I don't have much, but one bowl for each family is enough."
Jiang Cheng greeted the residents of the compound.
"Oh, and ours too!"
"Thank you so much!"
"Why put so much meat in there?"
"That's right, serve the meat out for you to eat."
Everyone apologized politely before accepting.
After Grandma Shen, Aunt Sun, and Grandpa Sun came over, you persuaded them and I talked to them, and they all went home to get the bowls.
There were a total of thirteen families living in the compound, each with a large bowl, not counting the Sun, Chen, and Li families, and excluding the Lin family.
Nine large bowls of meat soup, the affordable meat soup, was taken back by the person with the steadiest hands in each household.
After the broth was divided, Jiang Cheng and the others returned to the house and sat down one by one.
Jiang Cheng stood up holding the bowl in his hand.
"I have a small face..."
With just one sentence, Jiang Cheng received everyone's attention.
"Hahahaha! Just kidding."
"I won't say anything more, let's get down to business!"
"I'm very happy that we can get together for a meal today. Let's eat and drink well."
Jiang Cheng raised his bowl, and everyone followed suit. They drank some soda and some wine.
Jiang Cheng sat down, and everyone waited for the oldest grandmother, Grandma Shen, to take the first bite before they started eating.
"Ouch, this flying dragon meat!"
"Oh my god, why am I drinking this wine? I need to eat more meat!"
Everyone was having fun and laughing.
Jiang Cheng secretly looked at Chen Que opposite him, holding up the bowl.
Shen Que, who received the signal, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all under Jiang Cheng's gaze.
Jiang Cheng: She wants some soup...with rice.
