341 Grandma, cheers~~
The whole family is very happy about Zhou Linglan's arrival, including Mumu.
"This yard is a little small, but it's very new and exquisite." This is the first time Zhou Linglan has seen a house in Shitoulei, and she thinks it is very special.
"The vegetables are grown well." Zhou Linglan highly praised the small vegetable patch at the door.
Zhou Linglan didn't expect the environment of the family area to be so good. How should I put it? Standing on the second floor, you can look at the endless sea every day, and your mood will become relaxed.
There are many strange things in the yard. Chenchen held grandma's hand and introduced his two good friends Baibai and Duoduo first.
Chenchen chirped, "This is the beach, this is the oven, this is Duoduo's swimming pool, this is the small table that Dad made for me..."
"Grandma, look, Dad also bought a radio~~"
Zhou Linglan smiled: "Okay, okay."
Su Taotao poured a bowl of water for Zhou Linglan: "Chenchen, grandma must be very tired after sitting on the train for so long, let her drink some water and rest for a while."
"Ah~~" Chenchen was also thirsty, picked up his enamel cup, clinked glasses with grandma, "Grandma, cheers~~"
Su Taotao rubbed the child's head: "Mom, the room on the second floor has been cleaned up, and Ahang is boiling water. You can go upstairs and rest after taking a shower. I'll make dinner when I come back. I'll go back to the factory to take care of some things first."
"Chenchen, stop bothering grandma, let her rest for a while." Su Taotao said to the little kid.
Chenchen nodded: "Okay, mommy should go to work~~"
Su Taotao went out first, Zhou Linglan asked Chenchen to take a nap, and started to clean up the house.
The house was quite clean, but Su Taotao was quite busy, and the two men, Fu Zhengtu and Fu Yuanhang, were not so meticulous.
Zhou Linglan took advantage of her dirty clothes and simply wiped the house inside and out.
Fu Yuanhang was not idle either, and together with Zhou Linglan, they quickly finished cleaning up. The
windows were really clean at this time, and there was not even a speck of dust on the stove.
After they were done, the mother and daughter took a shower, washed clothes, and went upstairs to rest.
The factory was still rushing to deliver the last batch of New Year goods. After this batch of New Year goods was delivered, the workers began to take a holiday for the New Year.
"Did you pick him up?" Aunt Zhong asked.
Su Taotao nodded: "Yes, Mumu is fine."
"Well," Aunt Zhong waved her hand, "I'm not worried about that bad boy Mumu."
Su Taotao smiled, but she saw through it without saying anything.
Aunt Zhong sighed: "I don't know what's wrong with Jiji recently. He is absent-minded in everything he does, and looks like he has a lot on his mind.
I asked him what happened, and he said nothing was wrong. I was really worried."
Su Taotao thought that the relationship between Mo Jiazhe and Zhou Weining should be completely over.
In fact, Zhou Weining is an okay girl, but she doesn't fit in with the atmosphere of Aunt Zhong's family.
Not being together may not be a bad thing.
But Su Taotao didn't know what to say.
"Maybe it's something about the team." Su Taotao said.
Aunt Zhong shook her head and said, "I don't think so. I wanted him to work in the new factory, but he refused, saying that he liked the work of the security team. Could it be..."
Aunt Zhong looked at Su Taotao suddenly: "Could it be that the girl he told you last time is no longer a good
girl?" Su Taotao smiled and said, "It hasn't even started yet, so how can it be a bad relationship? Don't worry, everyone has unhappy times, maybe it will be fine in a couple of days."
"It hasn't started yet?" Aunt Zhong sighed, "Jiji is good in every way, but he's just not very popular with female comrades. Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about him."
"Tell me about the recruitment situation in the past few days." Su Taotao changed the subject.
Talking about work, Aunt Zhong immediately perked up: "It's like this, there are a total of..."
Su Taotao and Aunt Zhong's meeting ended at almost six o'clock.
"That's it, post the list of people who will enter the re-examination tomorrow, and implement the recruitment work as soon as possible, so that they can officially come to work on the first day of the new year.
After this last batch of goods is finished, we should also have a holiday. Everyone has worked hard, it doesn't matter if it's a little early."
Su Taotao leaned against the chair and looked at her watch, almost jumping up: "So late? I almost forgot that Grandma Chenchen is here, I have to go home to cook."
Aunt Zhong said: "Then let's stop here first? Xiao Lu and I will go to post the list tomorrow. By the way, Taotao, let us do a public opinion survey to see what kind of New Year benefits everyone needs.
It was issued at the beginning of winter . A quilt. Some employees still want a quilt, but most people still want meat, oil, rice, and flour. "
Su Taotao: "Those who want quilts can buy them at their own expense. After registering, we will purchase them in bulk and deduct them from their wages.
Meat is not easy to get. As for oil, rice, and flour, we will see after the delivery. Then we can work overtime for two days and let Xiaolu contact the grain station to exchange them. They should be willing to do so."
The orders from other places have been sent out. The last batch of orders are all local. Xiaolu has delivered them all now. Some are used as the annual quota of the base. This is the last delivery.
Aunt Zhong said, "Of course I'm willing to do that. It's New Year's Day, and everyone would rather eat less and have some sweets to sweeten their mouths."
Su Taotao nodded, "That's fine. You should first settle down as a driver, come to work early, and let Xiaolu handle other things."
Aunt Zhong nodded, "I know."
Su Taotao hurried back home and smelled the fragrance of food before she even reached the door.
That's right, the flavor of this garlic sauce was specially made by her, and it's unique.
"Sorry, I was delayed by something and came back late. Have you cooked?"
Zhou Linglan and Fu Yuanhang were busy in the kitchen.
Zhou Linglan came out wearing an apron: "It's okay, it's just not as delicious as yours. Go wash your hands, dinner will be served soon."
Chen Chen ran over and hugged his mother's thighs: "Mom, grandma's cooking smells so good, why did you just get fat? I'm so hungry~~"
Su Taotao bent down and picked up the child: "Sorry, sorry, let's go wash our hands and come over to eat after that, okay?"
Chen Chen nodded with a smile: "Sure~~"
Su Taotao bought sea fish and scallops from the town at noon. Fu Yuanhang was in charge of grilling the scallops, and Zhou Linglan made the braised sea fish, which was not easy to go wrong, with plenty of green onions and coriander. It was very delicious.
Zhou Linglan ate grilled scallops for the first time and was amazed.
"How can there be something so delicious? Taotao, your garlic sauce is good enough for you to open a restaurant. Hey, look at my mouth. What I said, Chenchen can't tell anyone, or you will be criticized." Chenchen
puffed his cheeks and shook his head: "I won't say it~~"
Su Taotao thought that after a few years of reform and opening up, maybe she can really enter the catering industry and become a small catering boss.
"Mom, you are good at cooking, and this fish is also delicious." Su Taotao picked up the most tender fish belly and gave it to her.
"I've had enough, you guys eat, this piece of meat is the most tender, give it to Chenchen." Zhou Linglan is used to saving the good stuff for the children, and she felt pain in her stomach looking at such a big piece of belly meat.
"Eat it with peace of mind, Chenchen eats it often." Su Taotao said.
Chenchen nodded: "Grandma eats~~"
"If you can get used to it, you can leave it to me to cook in the future, and you can go to work with peace of mind. It's too hard to cook after work." Zhou Linglan said. "
Mom, we have a cafeteria here, it's very convenient. Sometimes you don't have time to cook, you can go to the cafeteria. The chef's cooking skills are also decent. I'll take you to the cafeteria for lunch tomorrow." Su Taotao said.
Zhou Linglan shook her head: "No, you should take me to the market tomorrow morning. I'll buy some vegetables and cook. Just tell me what you want to eat."
The older generation is still used to cooking by themselves, especially those who are used to living in the countryside. Canteens are luxurious places compared to restaurants.
Su Taotao didn't force her.
