Chapter 78 There is a response
. After a quick lunch, Du Shaojie went out in the afternoon. When he came back, there was a barbecue stove in the yard and a bag of things in the kitchen.
"Why are you eating roasted lamb? Is Xiaoya pestering you to eat it?"
Wang Yuxiu saw her son busying around, so she came out of the house to help.
She complained casually while cleaning the barbecue stove. They had just eaten braised venison yesterday, and today they have to eat barbecue again. Even a working family can't afford such a hassle.
"Mom, don't wrongly accuse Xiaoya. This has nothing to do with her. Those brought back yesterday were the remaining ingredients, and today's lamb is her thank you."
Du Shaojie responded to his mother's complaint with a smile, and Wang Yuxiu stopped talking.
Although it is a bit cold in this season, the ingredients should not be stored for too long. Since it is something that his son brought back with his own ability, there is really nothing to say.
In fact, Du Shaojie's words were half true and half false. At least the lamb had nothing to do with his helping in the kitchen yesterday.
There was still a lot of boneless mutton left as a reward, and he only took out a small part.
To be honest, Du Shaojie was not short of meat at all, and there was still some in the storage space. It was just that he was far away on the farm and could only come back once a month at most, and these things could not be preserved at home.
It would be fine when the coldest days of winter came, and any meat would be frozen hard if left outside.
In the evening.
Du Shaojie made a barbecue at home, roasted mutton, roasted chicken legs, and roasted chicken wings. The two sisters ate until their bellies were round and they kept flattering their brother.
Wang Yuxiu was very happy to see this scene. Her health had improved a little this year. Although she still couldn't do heavy work, she had no problem sewing, mending, washing, and cleaning.
"Mom, I'll take you to the hospital when I come back next time, and you should also take good care of your body. The codonopsis and red dates I brought back can be used to make soup, which is good for you."
The family sat in the yard, and the charcoal fire in the barbecue stove was red and still emitting heat.
Du Shaojie brought up the old matter again and planned to take Wang Yuxiu to the hospital for a checkup to try to cure the disease completely.
"It's an old problem, there's nothing to see, it's a waste of money. As for the codonopsis and red dates you brought back, I will eat them, don't worry."
Wang Yuxiu was reluctant to go to the hospital mainly because she was afraid of spending money. The family relied on Du Shaojie's salary to make a living. How could they have spare money to throw in the hospital?
Besides, she felt that her health had improved a lot this year. If she took care of it, maybe she would get better next year.
Du Shaojie sighed secretly. He had mentioned to Wang Yuxiu more than once that he wanted to take her to see a doctor, but his mother refused without exception.
He doesn't have to worry about food and drink now, but he doesn't have much spare money. He has a good skill and all kinds of ingredients are accumulating more and more, but he can't cash it in. What else can he do?
He doesn't even look down on the melons and dates that he gets from the black market, and it's not worth taking the risk.
After all, as long as he can get through these two years, everything will be fine.
Afterwards, Du Shaojie and Xiaomei cleaned up the mess, returned the barbecue stove they had borrowed, and rode to Liao Yongxin's home.
"Xiao Du, you came at the right time. There's a response from Director Cai. She has already told Director Luo about your childhood friend's family situation, and Director Luo promised to ask about it. Don't worry, Director Luo won't easily agree to such things. Since he has agreed, there is no problem."
Liao Yongxin had just returned home not long ago, and things went smoothly. Director Luo agreed to help.
"That's great, I will definitely let my childhood friend thank Director Luo later."
Du Shaojie was overjoyed and couldn't help but bow to Liao Yongxin repeatedly.
"Don't be naughty, kid. Remember to come back during the National Day. Director Luo is going to host a banquet at home, and specifically asked you and me to take care of it. Is that okay?"
Liao Yongxin curled his lips and talked about business.
"No problem, absolutely no problem. Master Liao, if there is anything in the future, I will let my childhood friend Su Dapeng contact you directly. I will go back to the farm tomorrow, and it will be inconvenient to contact anyone." "
Okay, ask him to find time to come to the cafeteria to find me later."
"Yes, Master Liao, you should rest early. I'm leaving first."
Du Shaojie didn't stay for long. After leaving Liao Yongxin's house, he rode his bike directly to find Su Dapeng.
He explained it in person and asked Su Dapeng to contact Liao Yongxin as soon as possible.
Du Shaojie didn't guarantee whether the matter would succeed or not, and he couldn't help with the follow-up matters. He had done his best.
After coming out of Su Dapeng's place, Du Shaojie hesitated for a moment, and finally did not go to find Qi Yan because it was late.
On Monday morning, he took the bus back to the farm.
"Master Du, what a coincidence that you came back. We made soup rice for lunch. Would you like to have a bowl first?"
Walking into the cafeteria, Qin Xiaomei and Li Guixiang had already prepared lunch.
Li Guixiang pushed a large bowl of soup rice to the window, looked up and saw Du Shaojie, and smiled and waved.
Du Shaojie was not polite. It was a bit cold today, and eating a large bowl of hot soup rice would definitely make him feel comfortable.
So, Li Guixiang made him a bowl of soup rice, and he found a table to sit down and eat. Not to mention, the soup rice made by Li Guixiang and Qin Xiaomei was quite delicious. Although there was not much mutton, it was very fragrant.
Under the influence of Du Shaojie, the two of them improved their cooking skills.
After a while, the employees who were dining in twos and threes also came in.
Wang Liwen made the rice and sat directly opposite him.
"Master Du, when did you come back?"
"I just arrived, just in time for dinner."
"I'll help you wash the sheets while you're away for a few days. I'll go to your place and sew the quilt cover after dinner."
Wang Liwen knew where Du Shaojie hid the key to the house, so it was very convenient for him to go in and out.
Du Shaojie was now used to this kind of thing. Except for his underwear and socks, almost all of his clothes and sheets were washed by Wang Liwen.
After dinner, the two left the cafeteria together and went to Du Shaojie's residence.
"I have applied for a home visit leave and will leave before the National Day."
Wang Liwen said while sewing the quilt.
Her family is not in the local area, and it is not easy to go back to visit her parents. There is only a home visit leave every four years, and this is the first time she has enjoyed this benefit.
"I will go home on National Day, too, and I can take you to the train station then."
Du Shaojie remembered what Liao Yongxin had told him, and felt that he could go with him.
Wang Liwen nodded, quickly sewed the quilt, and went home for a nap.
Du Shaojie was not sleepy. He lay on the bed full of sunshine and entered the simulation training scene.
[Simulation Training (Intermediate)]
[Duration: 220 hours\510 hours]
[Please select the training content]
Du Shaojie checked the content directory and finally chose the dish [Sweet and Sour Carp] for simulation training.
In reality, he has made [Sweet and Sour Carp] and received an overall evaluation of "bad". He felt that he could not always make [Dry-fried Fish], and the level of various fish dishes should be improved.
In the next two days, he would practice this [Sweet and Sour Carp] whenever he was free, consuming a total of 23 hours, and finally received a "medium-low" simulation evaluation.
[Duration: 197 hours\510 hours]
There are still 197 hours left. For the next dish, he is going to stick to the classic Shandong cuisine, [Scallion-fried Sea Cucumber].
He wanted to practice this dish before, but because the ingredients in reality were not easy to obtain, he finally gave up. But now is different from the past. Director Luo asked him and Liao Yongxin to cook at his home during the National Day holiday, so he felt that he should make some preparations.
