Chapter 53 Good People and Good Deeds



"Give Comrade Song Jianye a permanent position."

As soon as these words came out, everyone below exploded.

"The county will provide a letter of introduction, allowing Comrade Song Jianye to proceed directly to the second round of interviews." The county official continued, "However, although the exam is waived, the pre-job interview cannot be skipped, so whether he will be appointed in the end will depend on his performance."

"This is a good opportunity. I hope you won't let the leader down."

Considering Song Jianye's broken leg, the county official added, "By the way, this quota isn't limited to Song Jianye himself; it can also be used by his family. Here's a letter of introduction."

"When the major factories start recruiting in September, you can just take this letter of introduction with you."

The cadre gave the letter of introduction to Feng Guizhi. Feng Guizhi felt uneasy when she heard it and quickly took it with both hands.

She looked at the official seal on the bottom of the paper and her heart was pounding.

Formal salary qualification.

The crowd below were almost brimming with envy as they listened. This was the qualification for a regular employee! It wasn't something he could get right away, but with this letter of introduction, wouldn't it be almost there?!

"Oh my god, a letter of introduction for a permanent job! Jianye is so lucky this time!"

"A regular job! If I knew I could get this, I'd be willing to break my legs."

"The third son of the Song family finally had his leg broken for good. Alas, when he broke his leg, we felt sorry for him, but now we wish we were the one who broke our leg."

"What you said is not true. When Jianye was doing good deeds and saving people, how could he know about these things? If you didn't know there was a reward for regular employees, would you still be willing to do it?"

“…” Everyone in the team started talking excitedly.

Not only were they surprised, but even the Song family had no idea there was such a reward. They hadn't expected Jianye to save someone this time, and the county would actually issue a letter of introduction for a permanent job. The whole family was filled with excitement.

"That's great, Yulan. You must tell the good news to the third brother several times to make him happy." Chen Xiuxiu said while holding Yang Yulan's hand, happy for them from the bottom of her heart.

"This is really a great thing, it just proves the saying that good

Good things will be rewarded."

Yang Yulan's heart was pounding, and she didn't know what to say, so she nodded hurriedly.

Feng Guizhi also thanked the cadre repeatedly on the stage and said a lot of words praising the country and the leaders.

The crowd below was in an uproar, and even Song Yuangang was excited. Although the position of formal worker was not given to him, it was a honor for him as the team leader that such a talent emerged in their team.

He was originally planning to talk about the reward given by the team, but seeing that no one was in the mood to listen, he simply didn't mention it and would just give it to someone directly when the time comes.

The county officials certainly couldn't stay here for long. Soon they said they wanted to go and visit Song Jianye and asked someone from the Song family to lead the way home.

The people from Old Song's family led the county cadres back home. Many people in the team were reluctant to leave, so they followed them.

A large group of people headed towards Old Song's house.

Although the little ones didn't quite understand what it meant, they all knew it was a good thing, a good thing for their family, so they jumped and laughed all the way.

After all, Song Jianye's leg was broken and he couldn't go out, so after arriving home, Feng Guizhi led the county officials directly to the west room. Yang Yulan had tidied the room and everything was neatly arranged.

The two cadres looked at him twice and couldn't help but nod.

Today, Song Jianye also changed into clean clothes. He was leaning against the head of the bed, using a few rattan sticks to weave a small backpack suitable for Baoya.

He couldn't get out of bed or weave reed mats these days, but he didn't want to be idle, so he simply found some work for himself.

"Jianye, our county cadres are here to see you." Feng Guizhi shouted outside the door and led two cadres in.

After meeting Song Jianye, the county officials gave him some words of praise, then asked about his leg injury, and left shortly afterwards.

It was dinner time, and Feng Guizhi suggested they stay for dinner. The two cadres waved their hands and said, "No, we have other things to do when we get home. We also need to write a report on what Comrade Song Jianye did this time so that everyone in our county knows about this people's hero."

Feng Guizhi was so excited when she heard this. It was reported that the people from the Song family had

She didn't show it too obviously, but just praised the county leaders a few times for being able to see what they were doing.

The people from Old Song's family escorted the two cadres to the door, and Song Yuangang left with them. There were also a few other people who were good at handling things and followed them to see them off.

There was still a circle of people gathered at the door of Old Song's house. After seeing the leader leave, they all came up to congratulate him.

"Guizhi, your family is so lucky~!"

"Jianye is truly remarkable, having quietly accomplished something so significant. Hey, I just heard the county leaders say they're going to write a report or something. Will that report mention our production brigade?"

"Of course, we must introduce Jianye as our production team!"

The whole group of people were very happy, as if they were going to be reported, and a sense of collective honor arose spontaneously.

Feng Guizhi responded to them with a smile, neither proud nor taking on the work, but simply said that it was what the team members should do.

Chen Xiuxiu, standing nearby, looked at the people standing before her and recognized several of them as the ones who had gossiped about Song Jianye's broken leg a few days ago. She remained silent, just watching those people and smiling, until they left in dismay.

Chen Xiuxiu snorted and turned around to talk to someone else.

Mrs. Tian also came over. She didn't go to the front, but stood behind the crowd. Looking at the glorious appearance of the Old Song family, her expression became more and more unsightly, and she was holding a lot of anger in her heart.

She had finally managed to outmaneuver Feng Guizhi, but she hadn't expected that saving someone would bring such a huge benefit to their family. She thought of the permanent job offer again, and her eyes nearly turned red with envy.

Everyone gathered at the door and talked for a while, but soon they dispersed. After all, the meeting was just before lunch, and if they didn't go back to cook, it would be almost lunchtime.

After everyone left, Feng Guizhi, Yang Yulan and others went into the kitchen to prepare cooking.

However, while asking her daughter-in-law to add fuel to the fire in the kitchen, Feng Guizhi carefully took the letter of introduction into her room and put it away safely.

She checked twice before putting it in, and only put it in after it was all right. Then she went back to the kitchen and started preparing lunch.

It's a bit late now, and I have to go to work in the afternoon, so I didn't have any time to eat.

The meal was so sumptuous that I fried two dishes and made a pot of tomato dumpling soup.

Both dishes were cooked quickly and were served in no time. After serving them, Feng Guizhi rinsed the pot and started making the tomato dumpling soup.

Dumpling soup is easy to make. Most people just throw the dumplings into hot water, beat in some eggs, and stir it all together. But Feng Guizhi makes it differently. She first cuts up two small tomatoes, pours some oil on them, and stir-fries them in a pan, then adds two large scoops of water and starts to boil.

In order to do it faster, Feng Guizhi directly poured hot water from the thermos.

Then she started making the dough. She put three handfuls of flour into a bowl, beat two eggs, added some salt, and then added the right amount of water. She used chopsticks to stir it all together. When it became a batter, it was almost done.

Feng Guizhi was quick and efficient, finishing the meal in under two minutes. Just then, the water in the pot began to boil. Without feeling bad, she cracked three more eggs into the pot, stirring them with chopsticks. Then, she generously added two handfuls of greens and seasoned them with salt.

The pot was full before the vegetables were put into the pot, but after they were put into the pot, the amount of food quickly dwindled. When the water started to boil again, Feng Guizhi scooped up the batter with a spoon and threw it in.

After scraping the batter clean and throwing it into the pot, cover the pot and wait for a few minutes, and a pot of fragrant dumpling soup will be ready.

Before serving, Feng Guizhi thought about it and took out the sesame oil, carefully dropping a few drops in, and the fragrance immediately came out.

"Wash your hands, it's time to eat." Chen Xiuxiu went out and called a few children.

Feng Guizhi first served Song Jianye's portion separately. After all, today was a big happy event for him. Feng Guizhi even steamed an egg for him as a celebration and praise.

After Yang Yulan, Baoya Tianen and the others returned from delivering the meal, they all sat down in the main hall. Each of them had a bowl of tomato and dumpling soup in front of them, and two dishes of stir-fried vegetables in front of them. Although they were simple, they still tasted delicious.

The two tables were filled with food, and the children were drooling as they smelled the aroma.

Soon the whole family started eating. Baoya took a sip of the dumpling soup with a small spoon. It had a very light tomato aroma, not sour at all, and then the aroma of white flour dumplings and sesame oil. The three different aromas mixed together, the taste was complex, but exceptionally delicious.

This dumpling soup tastes quite appetizing, and paired with two stir-fried dishes, it is extremely satisfying.

Baoya ate in small bites, almost burying her head in the bowl. Usually a small bowl of rice, today she ate a bowl and a half before smacking her lips and stopping.

"It's delicious~" Baoya said with satisfaction, her eyes squinting.

Tian'en was still eating, and nodded affirmatively after listening.

Baoya covered her round belly with her little hands, tilted her head and licked her mouth, still savoring the delicious taste just now.

........

Not long after finishing the meal, it was time to go back to work. Although they didn't have time to rest at noon, it is said that people feel refreshed when they are happy. When the people in the Song family went to work, they walked with a breeze and didn't feel tired at all.

In the afternoon, the children also went to the back mountain. They rarely met Shen Yibei in the past few days because Shen Yibei was busy looking for matsutake mushrooms.

Matsutake mushrooms can only be found deep in the mountains, and he doesn't have much time, so he doesn't have the chance to pick cicada shells with the little ones.

"Brother Yibei is not coming today?" Yuanbao looked around and asked Song Bowen while taking a break after picking up the trash.

If Shen Yibei was there, he could take them to pick wild dates to eat. Although they knew the way, they were a little scared when they went.

Obviously, Shen Yibei is not much older than Song Bowen, but he is calm and wise, and has a feeling different from his peers. Therefore, the younger ones are a little dependent on him and regard him as a powerful big brother from the bottom of their hearts.

"Maybe Brother Yibei is busy with other things." Song Bowen said after thinking for a while.

Baoya looked up in a certain direction on the mountain, stayed there for two seconds, and then continued to look for cicada shells.

It was almost dark today, but Shen Yibei still didn't show up, so the kids had to go home with a little regret.

Not long after the children got home, Song Yuangang came again, but this time he was not here to talk about anything, but to deliver something.

"This is a reward from Jianye for being a good person and doing good deeds. I didn't have time to tell you about it at noon, so I brought it here right away. It's ten pounds of flour, ten pounds of rice, and five pounds of pork we just harvested today. Our team also gave us a token of appreciation by adding twenty centimeters to the allowance and five pounds of grain and oil."

"It's all here, Aunt Guizhi,

Let me see if there is anything missing."

Feng Guizhi felt overwhelmed by the rewards she received all day long. Not only did the county give her a letter of introduction for formal employment, a certificate of commendation, books, etc., but also rice, flour, grain, oil, work points, and even pork!

Chen Xiuxiu and Yang Yulan behind were also a little confused. The reward was too much.

After being surprised, the whole family was so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

"Thank you, Captain. The fact that Jianye can be recognized as a good person and for good deeds is inseparable from having a good captain in the team." Feng Guizhi followed Song Yuangang in expressing her gratitude, but what she said was also very sincere.

Song Yuangang is indeed a responsible and good captain.

"You must not leave today. Stay and have dinner with us." Feng Guizhi pulled Song Yuangang and tried to keep him for dinner.

Song Yuangang quickly waved his hand: "No, no, everything is ready at home, just waiting for me to go back and eat."

"The eldest brother's wife, go cut half of the meat for the team leader." Feng Guizhi hurriedly called Chen Xiuxiu.

Their family did receive a lot of rewards this time, and they were not greedy, so it was reasonable for them to give Song Yuangang half of the meat.

"Oh." Chen Xiuxiu reacted and quickly took the meat to the kitchen to cut it.

"Don't worry, Aunt Guizhi, keep it for your family. If I take it away, it will be embarrassing. If it gets out, it will have a bad impact. I really have to leave, so you guys should hurry up and cook." After saying that, Song Yuangang left quickly.

Feng Guizhi saw that she couldn't stop him, so she didn't try to keep him any longer.

Mrs. Li, who lived next door, stretched her head out the door to look at Old Song's house. Seeing that Song Yuan had just given so many rewards, she felt sour in her heart.

The people in the Song family didn't know what she was thinking, and they were feeling very happy at the moment.

Feng Guizhi looked at the five pounds of pork and wondered what to do with it. After thinking it over, she gritted her teeth and made a decision.
