Xu Zhaodi and Jiang Wan went to work together. It was the end of October in the Gregorian calendar and the beginning of September in the lunar calendar, and the weather was already extremely cold.
When the two arrived at the town, the sky was already turning pale.
Jiang Wanyu: "Sister, I'm leaving first. Be careful on the road. I'll wait for you here in the afternoon."
Xu Zhaodi: "Okay, go quickly."
When it was daybreak, Xu Zhaodi was not afraid at all because there were other people on the road.
What I’m afraid of is coming back in the dark in the afternoon.
As for Chen Jianguo, they set out at five in the morning. There were two cars together. He took a nap in the car. After waking up, Zhang Qingdong took a rest while he drove.
In the car were Jiang Dahai, Feng Daqiang, and Wei.
As soon as Jiang Dahai got on the bus, he smelled a scent of oil. Seeing that everyone was asleep, he didn't ask for fear of waking them up.
Chen Jianguo drove the car at such a fast speed that the people behind him couldn't sleep.
Jiang Dahai: "When you left, did your wife bring you anything delicious?"
Chen Jianguo glanced at Jiang Dahai through the perspective mirror and said, "Are you a dog nose?"
Jiang Dahai heard it and smiled: "It really is true."
Chen Jianguo: "There is no place for you."
Jiang Dahai became more excited when he heard this. He lay on the back seat and took Chen Jianguo's bag from the trunk.
Chen Jianguo frowned when he saw it: "It's not good for you to do this."
"Are we brothers still separated? Let me see what delicious food your wife has prepared for you."
Jiang Dahai knew that Xu Zhaodi must have prepared food for Chen Jianguo.
The package was opened, revealing a bottle of pickles and an oil-paper bag.
Feng Daqiang and Wei Wei came over when they saw it.
Feng Daqiang smiled and said, "Open it quickly and see what delicious food it is."
Jiang Dahai couldn't wait any longer, so he opened the oil paper package and found more than twenty fried cakes neatly arranged inside.
The eyes of the people in the back seat lit up. Feng Daqiang was shocked: "Wow, so many pancakes."
Jiang Dahai picked up one and took a bite, most of it was gone.
Without hesitation, several people took one and started eating.
Chen Jianguo swallowed hard and said, "Please leave some for me."
Zhang Qingdong stretched out his hand, and the person behind him also took two for Zhang Qingdong.
Zhang Qingdong ate while feeding Chen Jianguo.
Chen Jianguo didn't try it last night, but after taking a bite now, he felt that the oil cake made by his wife was even more delicious than the walnut cake.
Jiang Dahai stared at Chen Jianguo's neck.
"You didn't wear the dress your wife knitted for you when you went out this time?"
Chen Jianguo glared at Jiang Dahai in the rearview mirror, but Jiang Dahai didn't mind and said with a smile: "Ah, you are still enjoying yourself. I envy you so much."
Feng Daqiang smiled and said, "You have said this in front of us no less than three times."
The people behind talked and ate all the way, and finally left half a pancake for Chen Jianguo.
When Chen Jianguo got off the car, he looked at the half-eaten pancake in his hand and cursed: "You are just a bunch of pigs. My wife made it and only left me half a pancake. How dare you?
Next time I go out, I won’t let my wife do it for you anymore.”
Jiang Dahai smiled and said, "We brothers have such a good relationship, you can't get angry just because of a few cakes, right?
Can't you understand us? Our wives can only cook so-so meals, but your wife can cook delicious meals."
Chen Jianguo said coldly: "Get lost."
As he spoke, he picked up half a cake and put it in his bag.
He had wanted to eat it when he missed her, but now there was only one bite left.
Jiang Dahai laughed and said, "Or, I'll spit it out for you."
“Roll, roll, roll…”
Chen Jianguo was too lazy to talk to them.
After they arrived at the designated place in the provincial capital, Political Commissar Zhou's driver called them to eat mutton.
The mutton here is famous. These people had already eaten their fill in the car, but when they heard that they were going to eat mutton, they felt a little regretful.
Chen Jianguo put away his bag, washed his face in the hotel bathroom, put on his hat and went downstairs.
His stomach had been growling with hunger for a long time. It had been seven or eight hours since he left home in the morning, and he had only eaten one fried dough stick.
After Political Commissar Zhou and his companions went downstairs, they went to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria is self-service, and you can order their dishes a la carte.
Political Commissar Zhou ordered some mutton and said, "You must be hungry on the road. Eat more. I'll treat you today."
The biscuits were rather dry; they had eaten too much in the car, so apart from being thirsty, they were not hungry at all.
Political Commissar Zhou saw Chen Jianguo eating with big mouthfuls while others were eating so elegantly, which was a bit surprising.
"Hey, I finally treated you guys to a nice meal today, why do you guys look so polite?"
Jiang Dahai said: "It's too bumpy. It makes my stomach uncomfortable and I can't eat."
Political Commissar Zhou was a little unconvinced and asked, "Are you guys going to eat alone without telling me?
Look at what Xiao Chen is eating. He looks like someone who has been hungry for a day."
Zhang Qingdong, who was standing by, could not help but almost laugh out loud when he heard this, and he choked on the tea and coughed twice.
Jiang Dahai: "No, no, let's eat."
Chen Jianguo raised his eyes and gave Jiang Dahai a fierce look, with two words floating in his eyes.
——You deserve it
Chen Jianguo didn't care about that. He ate three pounds of mutton and a big bowl of stewed noodles to feel full.
Seven or eight people ordered twenty kilograms of mutton, and the people in Chen Jianguo's car ate the least.
Political Commissar Zhou smiled and said, "I thought these 20 kilograms of mutton wouldn't be enough for you to fill your stomachs, but it turns out that the four of you ate so little."
Chen Jianguo said: "I guess he is really not hungry. At least 30 kilograms is not enough to eat."
Political Commissar Zhou smiled. After having enough wine and food, he stood up, patted his stomach, and said, "Okay, we are all tired today. You all go back and rest early. Have breakfast at 7:30 tomorrow morning and have a meeting at 8:30 on time."
Several people said in unison: "Yes."
Political Commissar Zhou reminded her: "If you want to go shopping, remember to change into casual clothes."
A few people said again: "Yes."
Chen Jianguo was really full, and he was too lazy to go around. He would have plenty of time after the meeting anyway.
When they returned to the room, Jiang Dahai burped and said, "If I had known you wanted to eat mutton, I wouldn't have eaten so many cakes."
Chen Jianguo snorted coldly, "There are eight of us. My wife packed twenty-four pancakes for me, which is for eight people. In the end, the four of you ate them all in one go, leaving me one bite.
I'll see if you guys will eat alone next time."
Zhang Qingdong was smiling all the time.
Jiang Dahai: "Hey, we eat the cakes made by your wife, and you eat the mutton for us, isn't that great?"
Chen Jianguo: "Then what are you complaining about?
Don’t eat the cakes made by my wife next time.”
After saying this, Chen Jianguo took off his coat and went into the bathroom to take a shower. It was not easy for him to stay in such a high-end guesthouse, so he had to wash himself thoroughly to get rid of the sweat smell on his body.
Jiang Dahai stared at Chen Jianguo's back and said, "Listen...listen, this guy has been talking about his wife since he left the house.
This is because his soul was seduced away by his wife.
Don’t you think so?
