Jiang He has been sick for the past few days, with a high fever for three consecutive days.
Things finally got better today. When he heard that the production team was going to have meat, he brought a few of his usual buddies and hurried over here.
Afraid of missing the first pot.
But he didn't expect that after coming here, all he heard were rumors about Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qingwan.
Jiang He looked at the person next to him in disbelief: "Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qingwan have made contributions?"
Zhou Yan found an excellent position where he could keep an eye on the masters' movements at all times, and he nodded.
"Don't you know? Everyone has been talking about it. The fact that they can eat meat today is a reward from the higher-ups for their meritorious service to the production team."
Jiang He's face showed some surprise. Now that Ji Qingzhou had made great contributions, perhaps he would be given some preferential treatment in some aspects in the future.
Compared now, Ji Qingzhou must have more advantages than Shen Yunqing!
"Everyone is saying that Ji Qingzhou and Xie Yanbei are a match made in heaven. They both made contributions now. I heard that they discovered a lot of cultural relics this time. Xie Yanbei was awarded second-class military merit for taking leave despite his injury. If he can return to the army in the future, I wonder how glorious it will be."
Now everyone is envious of Xie Yanbei.
Originally, no one cared. Xie Yanbei injured his leg while on a mission, and everyone thought he would have to live in this small village for the rest of his life.
But unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be a royal flush with a bad hand of cards.
"What's so glorious about it? His leg was injured so badly, how can a cripple like him return to the army?"
Jiang He was dismissive and tried hard to suppress the feeling in his heart.
He was just a company commander. Although he won the second-class merit, it was not a big achievement!
How could he get well again out of nowhere after being lame for such a long time?
He kept comforting himself in his heart that as long as Xie Yanbei's life did not improve, Ji Qingzhou would never bet his future life on him.
"You can't say that. You've been sick these days and haven't been out much. I see that Xie Yanbei's walking has become no different from that of a normal person. Maybe he really met some master."
Zhou Yan kept staring at the spoon in the chef's hand, and even remembered clearly how many times they stirred the edge of the pot.
Jiang He felt a little uncomfortable and touched his hair in annoyance.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been having a fever recently, but my head suddenly started hurting again.
"I……"
"Let's go. Today's meat is out. If we go too late, we might not be able to get the good ones."
There was rarely any meat in the production team, so today we finally had meat and everyone was scrambling for it.
Jiang He, Yao Jia, Xu Biqin and others rushed to the kitchen.
"Don't rush, everyone will get some. We'll distribute it. Everyone, please line up."
Xu Biqin stared at the meat in the pot and couldn't help swallowing her saliva, her saliva almost flowing out.
In order to get a few good pieces of meat, she snatched the spoon from the chef's hand and pretended to help everyone divide the meat fairly.
The chef was speechless. He looked at the educated youths rushing over, and then thought about Ji Qingzhou and Ji Qingwan who were still on the mountain with the archaeological experts.
He always felt that although they were all from the capital, the difference in their qualities was too great.
"You guys are not needed here, I can do it."
Sister Wang ruthlessly snatched the spoon from Xu Biqin's hand.
Before Xu Biqin could react, she was pushed out of the stage.
"The PLA and archaeological experts are still in the back mountain. They've come all this way and haven't even had a meal. This first pot of meat consists of large bones and the best tenderloin, so we must share it with them."
Sister Wang and Sister Li were arranging things enthusiastically, and the villagers had no objections.
Everyone was thinking about how to get the first pot of meat to the mountain. Yao Jia and Xu Biqin were so angry that their noses were almost crooked.
"Sister Wang, there isn't much good meat on this pig to begin with. Who wouldn't want to have a bite of these tenderloins? They're still up in the mountains anyway, so it'll be cold by the time we get them up here. Why don't we share some first? They can come over anytime they want the rest."
Yao Jia had a wry smile on her face and kept waving the bowl in her hand in front of Sister Wang.
Originally, this little bit of meat was not a rare thing for her.
But in this poor village, all they do every day is squeeze them into working and toiling.
There are not many fresh vegetables in winter, and she is becoming more and more pale and thin, and cannot be compared with the girls in the city.
The meat cooked by Ye Lanqing was especially fragrant. Yao Jia stared at the bone with the most lean meat, looking at it eagerly, wishing she could swallow it directly with the bone.
Sister Wang waved her hand and refused without mercy.
"The pork this time was originally distributed to Qingzhou and her sister because of their kindness. If it weren't for their help, how could we have eaten meat twice in such a short period of time? They are the main contributors, and the best must be reserved for them!"
Yao Jia felt embarrassed after being humiliated in public.
She threw the bowl aside in anger: "It's just a mouthful of meat, as if no one can afford it. I don't even care about it."
Everyone carefully placed the first pot of meat into the thermos.
Yao Jia and Xu Biqin's eyes almost fell out as they watched helplessly, wishing they could just grab it.
"Isn't it just that pile of junk they found in the mountains? If Ji Qingzhou hadn't been so lucky, I might have found it too. I think they are clearly biased! These aunties usually like Ji Qingzhou!"
