The village gave gifts based on the number of people. Linglong's previous household registration was the Liu family, so including her, the Liu family always received gifts for four people.
But this time when it was Liu Qi's turn to divide the things, she was only given portions for three people.
"This number is wrong. Our family needs to support four people." She looked at the accountant who was in charge of the distribution, that is, Liu Baomin's father.
The branch secretary standing nearby also only learned about this not long ago. He could only say that Liu Baomin's family was quite good at hiding it.
"There are only three people in your family now, and Hongdou's household registration is no longer yours." The branch secretary continued.
"What? When did she stop being my family?" Liu Li was shocked.
There is one less person in their family, how come they don’t know about it?
The branch secretary thought about how Liu Baomin's family and Liu Baogen's family were now at odds with each other, so he continued to explain himself.
"A few days ago, Hongdou's household registration was moved."
"Moved? Where did she move to?" Liu Li asked quickly.
The other villagers who had received their gifts and were still queuing up pricked up their ears in curiosity.
"He has been transferred to the army. Didn't he follow your Baogen into the army?" The branch secretary looked like, "What can I do if you didn't even tell me about your own son?"
Hongdou, follow Baogen into the army? How is that possible? Baogen clearly said that only when you reach the rank of company commander can your family members accompany you.
Their Baogen just lost his position as platoon leader not long ago. Even if he hadn't lost it, he wouldn't be qualified to have his family accompany the army.
And if this really happened, how could Baogen not tell his family? The last time they called, Baogen was still gritting his teeth and wanted to know where that girl Hongdou was.
There must be a misunderstanding here, a big misunderstanding.
"Secretary, how did you know that Hongdou followed Baogen to join the army? Baogen didn't even know."
Now the branch secretary and Liu Baomin's father looked at each other in confusion.
Liu Baogen didn't even know about this? How could Hongdou follow the army?
Because the source of the information is Liu Baomin's family, Liu Baomin's father will have to explain in the end.
"Baomin said that he saw Shizhi in the army, and he and Hongdou came back to transfer her household registration."
Liu Qi was about to say that it was nonsense, but the household registration had already been moved and it was a fact. Otherwise, he would not be able to only receive things for the three of them.
"Wait until your Baomin comes back and ask him to explain it to me." She gritted her teeth.
If Liu Baomin really saw it, why didn't he warn his family right away? He's still holding a grudge against what happened last time. It's really despicable.
The troops here.
Zheng Tiansen was informed by Tong Dazhu that after work he could go to Linglong's house to eat the feast prepared by Linglong. He was in such a happy mood.
Before noon, he started searching around the office.
Linglong is treating him to a meal, so he can't go empty-handed. What can he bring as a gift?
Linglong's family is very busy.
She had already prepared and marinated the fish. Thinking about having fresh vegetables in the morning, she even went to the grocery store with her basket.
The salesperson already knew her and spoke to her quite cordially.
As soon as she left, people in the grocery store started asking this clerk about Linglong.
There are quite a few bachelors in the army who are short of marriage partners.
With the help of some seasonings, although it is still not complete, it is enough for Linglong to use her cooking skills to make some delicious food.
Calculating the time when Tong Dazhu and the others would come back, Linglong started getting busy in advance.
Frying, boiling and stir-frying, the aroma soon drifts out of the yard and goes away with the wind.
The families living near the Tong family smelled the aroma of chicken, each one more overpowering than the other, and either drooled or wondered who had cooked and eaten it.
The children who were not afraid of the cold and were playing outside had already followed the scent and found the right place.
The children didn't dare to rush into Tong's house, so they sniffed hard at the door, as if they could taste something if they smelled a little more.
The pork is processed delicately to produce some fragrant lard residue.
She saw children standing in a row sniffing from the window and found it funny.
After a while, she came out with a bowl.
"One piece per person, no snatching allowed."
In order to eat, the children were more obedient than each other. They took a piece of lard residue, put it in their mouths, and savored it slowly as if tasting the most delicious food, and were reluctant to swallow it.
Alas, it’s not easy for everyone. A piece of lard can be so fragrant.
In other words, she was the one who bought the meat, otherwise she wouldn't have bothered to bring out the lard to share with the children, but that was all.
After all, she is also short of money, so she can't be generous.
But it was this small piece of pork fat residue that made the children who ate it remember her. They thought she was a beautiful and generous fairy sister. Even when they returned home, they did not forget to talk about Linglong.
After hearing this, their parents also remembered Linglong.
When Tong Dazhu and Zheng Tiansen came over, Xiao Jiang followed.
This was also Linglong's suggestion. Xiao Jiang had helped her a lot in the past, so she thought of thanking him and returned the money Xiao Jiang had given her.
Smelling the aroma from afar, Tong Dazhu was certain: "This is definitely the smell from my home."
The three of them ran so fast.
As soon as they entered the room, they saw that the small table was already full, and the dish in the middle was actually served in a bowl.
This is also the main dish Linglong prepared today, pickled fish.
In addition to the fish, she also put some side dishes in it.
Zheng Tiansen thought of Linglong's love of books, so he picked out a book for Linglong as a gift, and Linglong couldn't put it down.
After all, the books Zheng Tiansen had given her before were all borrowed, but this one truly belonged to her.
With the delicious food in front of them, everyone stopped talking and started eating immediately.
Linglong's pickled fish was extremely popular, and even Aunt Tong ate a lot more because of her appetite.
Zheng Tiansen and the other three men also had big appetites. Even though Linglong had prepared a lot, they didn't finish it all in the end.
I drank all the sauerkraut fish soup, not even a drop was left.
"It's really delicious, Linglong. If every dish in the cafeteria is of this standard, I won't go home for dinner." Tong Dazhu sighed.
"Come on, don't you see how much Linglong has used? If the cafeteria does this every day, those animals will eat the entire army out of money." Zheng Tiansen interrupted his fantasy.
Although he also hoped that the food in the cafeteria would be of this standard.
Linglong was very happy that her craftsmanship was appreciated.
"We can't make it every meal, but we can make it occasionally." The quartermaster should have no objection.
"Whenever you're going to cook, please let us know in advance, and I'll eat in the cafeteria." Tong Dazhu said quickly.
Xiao Jiang also nodded. If there was a meal to be cooked, he would definitely go to the cafeteria early.
Linglong agreed with a smile, returned the money to Xiaojiang, and had no intention of making her own request to Zheng Tiansen.
In fact, she had said before that she wanted some books that could teach her something, but this time she was more specific.
Zheng Tiansen agreed without hesitation.
Alas, I just finished treating you to a meal, but I feel like Brother Zheng is asking for more and more favors. I don’t know when I can repay him. Linglong sighed with gratitude.
Now she has no other abilities, so she can only cook more food for Brother Zheng.
She sighed like this, but Zheng Tiansen wished she would know more about him so that they could continue to be together.
