Editor-in-Chief Li knew that they would not be back until the afternoon, so he warmly invited them to have lunch together.
"The chef at the newspaper cafeteria is an amazing cook, especially Cantonese cuisine. I heard there's something delicious going on today, so you should definitely stay and try it."
"Yes, Jingshu, you and Comrade Gu should stay for dinner."
Chen Zhuhua leaned over to her ear and said, "The chef's cooking is really delicious. I've gained ten pounds since I came here."
For people who love food and beauty, this job is both happy and torturous.
During lunch time, the newspaper staff saw two unfamiliar faces looking on curiously.
After noticing the military uniform on Gu Chengze, he quickly looked away.
The pressure that soldiers bring makes people afraid to look at them for too long.
Editor-in-Chief Li said that she would treat everyone to this meal and they could take whatever they wanted.
If Lin Jingshu likes the food in their cafeteria, maybe we can take this opportunity to keep her.
As a veteran who has worked for many years, Editor-in-Chief Li has seen many strange and unusual opportunities for promotion.
For example, she can knit sweaters, play table tennis, or even be noticed by her boss because she can repair car chains.
Considering their relationship with Lin Jingshu, she might stay here just because she likes the food in the cafeteria.
Lin Jingshu also became a little more curious. Although state-owned stores also have Cantonese cuisine, it has lost its authenticity considering the tastes of most people.
Lin Jingshu was eager to try it out and see if it was as they said.
Lin Jingshu stood at the window and chose the food, while Gu Chengze held a plate in one hand.
The newspaper is profitable and the food for the employees is better than outside.
Even the big pot dishes have the feeling of exquisite stir-fry dishes.
As soon as the food entered her mouth, Lin Jingshu's eyes lit up.
"How is it? It tastes good, right?"
Lin Jingshu nodded and gave a thumbs up, "It's very delicious."
Seeing that she was enjoying her meal, Gu Chengze gave her most of his food.
Lin Jingshu quickly protected the plate and said, "I'm full after eating this."
The taste is indeed good, but the amount of food is limited.
After dinner, Gu Chengze handed over a handkerchief and waited for his wife to use it before putting it away.
While washing the plates, Gu Chengze took the utensils for both of them.
Chen Zhuhua looked at Lin Jingshu enviously, "Jingshu, does Comrade Gu have any other brothers?"
"Looking for a partner?"
Lin Jingshu teased her on purpose.
The last time we met, Chen Zhuhua said that he wanted to focus on his career and consider personal issues in a few years.
Chen Zhuhua sighed, "My family keeps urging me to come back."
Since I was a child, I have watched my mother work hard. After work, she would come home and cook and clean the house.
When Dad came home, he just lay down on the sofa and read the newspaper, not helping at all.
She was afraid of meeting the same man when she grew up, so she never considered it.
There are good men in the world. China is so big, who knows if she can meet the right one. She will delay it as long as she can.
But under the urging of her parents and aunts and uncles, her attitude was not so firm.
Comrade Gu has been with Lin Jingshu all the time during these times of contact. If I could find someone like him, I would probably be happy.
"Chengze does have a younger brother who is not married yet, but he is in Jing City."
The two people, one in the south and one in the north, are as far apart as the ends of the earth.
Chen Zhuhua backed off when she heard this. She had a career and family in Guangzhou, and it was not realistic for her to leave her hometown and go to such a far place.
Lin Jingshu promised to help her find a suitable one. There are so many single men in the family compound, there must be a suitable one.
After leaving the newspaper office, the couple went to the supply and marketing cooperative and the grocery store to buy some necessary things.
Back on the island, Xiaobai excitedly followed the two of them as soon as they opened the door.
Circling around the net bag in Gu Chengze's hand.
"You have a really good nose."
They bought some canned meat at the grocery store.
Xiaobai smelled the food and followed him into the kitchen, squatting at the door and staring at the can eagerly.
Gu Chengze felt soft-hearted when he saw its wet eyes. "If people knew that our Xiaobai is treated better than others, they would report it."
This is true. In an age when people are reluctant to eat meat, a puppy eats it.
Gu Chengze can say whatever he wants.
Even though he always says that Lin Jingshu spoils Xiaobai, in fact, he is the one who dotes on Xiaobai the most.
He is responsible for feeding, catching insects and bathing.
They say they are worried that there will be bugs in the house that will bite them.
Lin Jingshu didn't make any fuss. She thought it was good to have a husband who was hygienic, and she was happy to be a hands-off boss.
Gu Chengze cut a piece of canned meat the size of his little finger and threw it directly to Xiaobai.
Xiaobai caught it with one jump, bit the meat butt and put it at Lin Jingshu's feet.
Lin Jingshu burst out laughing, "It seems that I still have more face."
Gu Chengze smiled and said, "Of course, Xiaobai is quite discerning about who is the boss of our family."
Lin Jingshu glared at him.
"Xiaobai, eat it yourself."
After hearing this, Xiaobai lay down at the door with the food in his mouth, ate it in a few bites, and then basked in the sun comfortably.
Time flies, and it is May in the blink of an eye.
Lin Jingshu's belly is getting bigger and bigger.
As her due date drew closer, her sleep at night was affected and she often slept restlessly, either suffering from leg cramps or being woken up by the children kicking her.
Gu Chengze saw it and was worried, and went to the military camp with dark circles under his eyes every day.
The couple is not in good condition.
When the elders on both sides found out, they also became anxious and immediately decided to go to the island to take care of the people.
"Aunt Liu and I will go together. Will there be enough rooms at home?"
Although Zeng Lingshu gave birth to three children, they were all single babies, and the children were three to five years apart in age, so it didn't seem difficult.
My daughter-in-law is pregnant with twins. If she and her mother-in-law take care of them alone, they won’t be able to do it. Someone needs to cook at home.
Anyway, there is no need to worry at home. Aunt Liu has also made arrangements and will take her with her.
The wages for the period have also been negotiated, which is one hundred yuan more than before.
The conditions she offered were generous, including food and accommodation and high wages.
Aunt Liu also came into contact with Lin Jingshu during the Chinese New Year and was not opposed to going to the island to take care of her.
She even felt a sense of anticipation in her heart. She didn't expect that at her age, she would still have the opportunity to visit the islands of her motherland and see the world.
Shuimogou Brigade.
Ding Xiangzhi was also busy packing her things. Her mother-in-law was leaving, so she, as her own mother, naturally couldn't be left behind.
Both men at home can cook, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
The most important thing is her daughter. When she thinks about having two children, her heart is in her throat.
My daughter was raised in pampering, and I don’t know if she can endure the pain of childbirth.
She took everything she could with her and even went to a famous midwife nearby to learn some nourishing food recipes, preparing to nourish her daughter well.
"Mom, can you go by yourself?"
Lin Mu was worried. The farthest place his mother had ever been in her life was the city. She must be careful not to be cheated on the way.
The old lady is very soft-hearted. What if human traffickers cheat people?
The more Lin Mu thought about it, the more worried he became, and finally he made a decision.
"What? You're going with me?!"
