Chapter 43: The teacher’s job was taken away, and Lu Chiyu was reduced to working as a helper in the cafeteria?
Lu Chiyu was being looked at inexplicably. Guo Caixia, who was in the crowd, chimed in, "Xiao Lu's teaching job might be ruined."
Qian Fanghua was anxious when she heard this and asked, "Why? Didn't they say there were three days to register?"
"As soon as you left the family compound today, He Manman submitted the registration form to the logistics department." Guo Caixia said.
Qian Fanghua was puzzled: "Didn't He Manman say before that she wanted to stay at home to take care of the baby and not go out to work? Why did she change her mind?"
Guo Caixia shook her head: "I don't know, anyway, she submitted the application form early this morning, so this teacher's job will probably be taken by her, after all, she used to be a junior high school teacher.
Xiao Lu has never been a teacher before, and he was late in submitting his application form, so the military district probably already decided on He Manman.
It's no wonder Guo Caixia said that, because it's a custom here that many jobs are on a first-come, first-served basis. What's more, He Manman has experience as a teacher, which gives her an advantage over Lu Chiyu.
"Xiao Lu, this...what should we do? If we had known, we would have submitted the registration form last night." Qian Fanghua blurted out everything in a hurry.
Then everyone looked at Lu Chiyu with eyes full of sympathy.
Lu Chiyu smiled and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law. In fact, Comrade He Manman has teaching experience and is indeed more suitable to be a teacher than me. It just so happens that I prefer to stay at home with Gu Yuan. It's fine now."
Lu Chiyu was speaking from the heart, and Qian Fanghua, who had heard what she said yesterday, believed her, but the other military wives thought she was just speaking for show.
After all, no one doesn't like such a decent and stable job.
No matter what everyone thought, Lu Chiyu and Qian Fanghua continued to go home.
Just as I put my things down at home, there was a knock on Lu Chiyu's door again.
When I opened the door, there was a strange, slightly plump middle-aged man outside, but Qian Fanghua was standing next to him.
It turned out that the middle-aged man was Fan Aimin, the chef of the military district canteen. He heard Yang Jie and others who had returned yesterday mention to him many times how delicious the seafood in sauce made by Lu Chiyu was.
Then he heard that everyone in the family compound was saying that Lu Chiyu's cooking skills were amazing, so he came today to ask Lu Chiyu to teach the canteen how to make seafood in sauce.
Not only are the people outside living a hard life, but their military district is also not rich either. Fan Aimin means that if the canteen can cook the small seafood deliciously and turn waste into treasure, it can save some expenses for the military district.
He also said that he would not let Lu Chiyu teach in vain, so he applied for 20 yuan of funds for Lu Chiyu's tuition.
Lu Chiyu naturally didn't need the twenty dollars, but she still agreed.
Within her ability, she is willing to do something beneficial to the military region.
Moreover, she had no intention of hiding the method of cooking the seafood in sauce. She thought it would be a good thing if this method could be spread so that more people could eat better.
Seeing that Lu Chiyu agreed, Fan Aimin was very happy and immediately took Lu Chiyu to the cafeteria.
So there was a new dish in the cafeteria at noon that day, which was a small seafood dish with sauce that the soldiers praised highly.
The soldiers' eyes lit up as they ate. Like Yang Jie and his companions, they discovered for the first time that these ordinary seafood scraps were so delicious.
While teaching Fan Aimin and others how to make small seafood in sauce, Fan Aimin discovered that Lu Chiyu was also good at making other seafood, and he knew how to match the dishes to achieve incredible results.
So Fan Aimin simply suggested hiring Lu Chiyu to teach them how to cook in the cafeteria. She didn't need to do it herself, she just needed to guide them on how to cook seafood.
Lu Chiyu was willing to teach them how to cook, but he didn't want to go to work, so he declined Fan Aimin's offer. However, he said that he would come to the cafeteria every week to teach them how to cook seafood.
With a week, Fan Aimin and his team will have enough time to master the cooking methods of as many varieties of seafood as possible.
When Fan Aimin heard this, he gave Lu Chiyu a high "wage" of five yuan a day as tuition.
And so, Lu Chiyu ended up having a class by accident.
When He Manman heard about this, she was so happy that she even went to the cafeteria to eat to mock Lu Chiyu.
Not seeing anyone, she asked Wu Juan to spread the word in the staff quarters that Lu Chiyu couldn't snatch the teacher's job from her and now had to work as a helper in the cafeteria.
With Wu Juan's vigorous publicity, many people in the military region soon knew about this.
So six days later, when Gu Yuan just came back from his mission, he heard that his little girl was working as a helper in the cafeteria.
"Xiao Gu, you should call your sister-in-law back home from the cafeteria. It's so smoky and hot in the cafeteria, and it's not worth it for your sister-in-law to work so hard for a salary.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't told my wife at home about the teacher's job and made her care about it, she wouldn't have been willing to work in the cafeteria after losing her job as a teacher." Political Commissar Hai said to Gu Yuan with a look of self-blame.
