After Jiang Wan and Zhang Qingdong had eaten dumplings, Jiang Wan threw a bag of loess in front of Zhang Qingdong and said, "Look, this is a gift for you. It's very special. You will definitely like it."
Zhang Qingdong was full of expectations, but when he opened it, he saw a bag of yellow soil inside.
Zhang Qingdong had a look of disbelief on his face, his eyes wide open.
"Baoer, what is this?"
Jiang Wan smiled brightly: "A thousand kilos of yellow earth."
Zhang Qingdong couldn't help laughing. He gave Jiang Wan a thumbs up and said, "Bao'er, you are really my baby. This gift is really special. Let me think about how to keep it."
Jiang Wan stood up and walked behind Zhang Qingdong, putting her arms around his shoulders and hugging him.
"Our Captain Zhang is so smart, he will definitely find a way, right?"
Zhang Qingdong tilted his head and Jiang Wanyu kissed him on the mouth.
Zhang Qingdong: “There is indeed a way.”
She came back from far away and brought such a big bag of loess, he must keep it.
Zhang Qingdong went into the kitchen and took out a rolling pin. He crushed all the loess and sieved it, and finally mixed it with salt water to make mud.
Jiang Wan sat opposite Zhang Qingdong, supporting her chin with both hands, and watched him work quietly.
Jiang Wanyu: "Do you want to be a vase for me?"
"No, I'll make some clay figures for us. I played with them a lot when I was a kid."
"Okay, then I can take one with me when I leave."
"Okay, no problem."
Zhang Qingdong doted on it very much. He kneaded the mud into a ball, covered it with oil paper and put it aside.
Zhang Qingdong said again: "Let it cover for a few days, then it won't crack."
Jiang Wan smiled. Her captain Zhang was very capable and could do everything.
After the two lay down, there was another round of tossing and turning.
After Jiang Wan came back, the family members in the compound started to carry out literacy campaign again. Jiang Wan gave classes to these rural women in the evening.
Tian Wenjun's business is booming and he plans to close on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.
She brought her children back to the Dan compound to live for a few days, and Zhang Guilan looked after them at night.
Zhang Guilan and Wang Daqing both live in the city, so it seems convenient for them to come to the restaurant.
On the evening of the 27th, Tian Wenjun arranged for Wang Daqing to prepare a table of dishes, and everyone in the restaurant ate together.
Tian Wenjun gave each of them a red envelope of ten yuan, but no one was willing to take it.
Tian Wenjun smiled and said, “When I first took over this restaurant, I was also very nervous because I was afraid that the business would be bad, but now the business is good, and this is all thanks to everyone.
You must accept this red envelope. If you don’t accept it, it means you think it’s too little.”
Zhang Guilan said: "Wenjun, you can't do this, it's not easy for you either.
If you don't take over this restaurant, we will have nowhere to stay."
Jiang Cuihua: "Yes, sister-in-law, please put the money away quickly."
He Damei also said: "That's right, what's the point of giving a red envelope? We get paid to work for you, this is what we should do."
Tian Wenjun said: "I am your boss now, why don't you all listen to me? Just take it when I tell you to."
Tian Wenjun tried to persuade them for a long time, but she still stuffed the money into their pockets one by one.
Everyone at the dinner table fell silent.
Tian Wenjun said: "There are still so many of us here. If we all work hard, the business will be good tomorrow, and the red envelopes we give you will be even bigger."
Several people were grateful, and Wang Daqing said: "I will work hard."
Wang Daqing is an honest man, and these are the only things he can say.
Tian Wenjun suddenly remembered something, and with a smile she took two books from a stool beside her and handed them to Wang Daqing.
"You are now the chef of our restaurant. You have to study the dishes when you have time. Here are two books I bought for you. I read them and they are very useful. Take them and read them when you have nothing to do."
Wang Daqing had a worried look on his face. He scratched his hair and said with a sad face, "Boss Tian, why don't you just let me go? I can't read a single word. Seeing the words in there is like an ant crawling around."
Jiang Cuihua smiled foolishly, and Tian Wenjun said, "Take it first, take it and have a look."
Only then did Wang Daqing take it.
Tian Wenjun: "We will come to work on the eighth day of the first lunar month. We will start cooking on the evening of the eighth day to make it a good day."
Several people said, "Okay."
Tian Wenjun said a few more words, and after the meal was over, they cleaned up and everyone left.
There is accommodation on the third floor. Tian Wenjun boiled dozens of kettles of water in the kitchen and placed them at the entrance of the first floor so that some of them can use it at night.
After that, I went to the backyard to wash and pack up.
Chen Jianguo said he would come to pick them up tomorrow at noon.
Wang Yulian has already coaxed Longlong and Tiantian to sleep.
In the next room, Feng Xueqin was still memorizing English words. This child was working too hard.
During the day, I have to help Tian Wenjun serve food and sweep the floor, and at night I have to do homework and memorize.
Feng Zhidong is a calm child, while Xiao Xueyan is lively and likes to sing and dance.
A dance teacher from the capital came to the junior high school in Beiqi County. The teacher planned to open a dance studio in the county.
Tian Wenjun thought that she would let Xiao Xueyan learn to dance in the future.
Girls who learn dancing will have better temperament in the future.
When Tian Wenjun lay on the bed, her body was very tired, but her heart was happy.
She has the habit of keeping accounts, and she calculated that she had taken over the restaurant in July, and it made basically no profit in July and August, so it was in a slump.
But from the end of September to now, in just three months, she has earned nearly ten thousand yuan.
Mainly, the accommodation on the third floor attracts many drivers.
After the new year, she will have to find someone else to wash the sheets and quilt covers.
By then, I will have to find a way to buy a washing machine.
Tian Wenjun originally planned to buy a TV for her child, but then she thought better of it.
What if you have other plans after the holiday?
Tian Wenjun fell asleep while thinking.
Chen Jianguo brought people to clean up the house early in the night.
Political Commissar Zhou knew that they had a large family and that a leader had passed away, so they wanted a bigger house with two bedrooms and a study, so he applied for it for Chen Jianguo.
Their situation was different from that of other people in the compound. As orphans of martyrs, they were entitled to the best of everything.
Chen Jianguo didn't want to accept it at first, after all, he and his wife had lived in that house for several days, but he thought that a bigger room would make the children more comfortable.
Chen Jianguo took Zhao Yong and several others to move overnight. Zhang Qingdong, Jiang Dahai and Li Wei all came to help.
These people were chatting and laughing, but Feng Daqiang and his wife were missing.
After Chen Jianguo moved his things in, he laid out bedding in all three bedrooms.
The county town had electric mattresses, so Chen Jianguo bought three and covered all three bedrooms with red sheets.
A new year has come, and after this year, everything will be new again.
The house we lived in before, the small house that my wife built in the living room, was not demolished by Chen Jianguo.
I don’t know who will live in this house in the future. If they want to tear it down, they can just do it.
The next day at noon, Chen Jianguo drove a jeep into the city to pick up Tian Wenjun and her mother.
