For the entire morning, Shen Chuning was learning the basics of accounting from Mr. Peng.
Before she started studying accounting, she thought it was just about keeping accounts and doing math.
After studying, she realized that there is so much to learn about accounting.
When she was studying, she was afraid of hard work and fatigue, so she dropped out before finishing the first year of high school.
After having that dream, she realized how important knowledge and culture are.
After the college entrance examination was resumed, as long as one person in the family was admitted to university, it could even change the fate of the entire family.
She had decided long ago that she would take the college entrance examination once it was resumed.
At this moment, she was like a sponge, absorbing madly in the ocean of knowledge.
Regardless of her learning results, her serious and studious attitude made Mr. Peng very satisfied.
It's time for lunch.
The commune has a canteen.
But many commune staff members live in the commune, and in order to save money, they usually go home for meals.
Many female comrades left work twenty minutes earlier and went home to cook.
Peng Kaiyuan was alone and was used to eating in the cafeteria.
Naturally, Shen Chu Ning couldn't go home for dinner, so he went to the cafeteria with Peng Kaiyuan.
The meals in the cafeteria are usually cooked with sorghum rice and corn bran mixed with some rice. Occasionally, they cook sweet potato rice, but with more sweet potato and less rice.
What the cafeteria cooked today was sweet potato rice.
On the surface, it looks like white rice, but in fact, when you take a spoonful, apart from the few grains of rice on the surface, there is sweet potato underneath.
Shen Chu Ning really doesn't like eating sweet potatoes. Not only are they choking, but they also make you fart after eating them.
But now she had to overcome it.
Maybe because there are abundant vegetables in this season, there are many dishes in the cafeteria, such as eggplant, green pepper, fried lettuce, fried lotus root, and fried cowpea.
All the dishes are vegetarian and they seem to have no oil or water. Every dish seems to be cooked with water.
Of course there are meat dishes as well, but they have to be prepared specially, costing 50 cents per serving, and you also need meat tickets.
It is expensive and most people can’t afford to eat it.
Shen Chu Ning had no appetite when looking at the food, but she had just arrived, so she didn't dare to be too high-profile and couldn't cook a small meal.
I followed Mr. Peng and got a bowl of rice, a portion of tiger-skin green peppers, and a portion of stir-fried lotus root.
The food in the cafeteria was two cents per ounce, and vegetarian dishes were one cent per portion. She paid four cents plus one or two ounces of food coupons for these.
She saw Mr. Peng in front of her had ordered two taels of rice and three vegetarian dishes, and was about to help the teacher pay the money.
Mr. Peng took out the money and food coupons before her.
"Ningning, you treated the teacher to a meal last night, and the teacher will treat you today."
Shen Chu Ning did not argue with Peng Lao.
I agreed readily.
However, I decided in my heart that when I get back I must make some meat dishes that are easy to preserve and convenient to eat and bring them to the teacher.
The teacher has been eating vegetarian food in the cafeteria for a long time, and his nutrition is not enough.
As Shen Chuning was thinking, Yin Linjiang also came with a lunch box and sat down at the same table with them, "Mr. Peng, Comrade Shen, do you mind if I sit here?"
Shen Chu Ning smiled friendly, "I don't mind."
Old Peng looked at the way Yin Linjiang looked at Shen Chuning, rolled his eyes, and deliberately asked Shen Chuning: "Ningning, how long does your wife have for home leave every year?"
"Generally speaking, they have one month of home leave a year." This question does not involve any confidentiality, Shen Chuning said generously.
In fact, she didn't know anything about Zhou Yubai's work that was truly confidential.
So far, she only knew the address of the unit where Zhou Yubai and his third brother were.
After Shen Chuning answered, Yin Linjiang was shocked and looked at Shen Chuning in disbelief, "Comrade Shen, are you married?"
"Well, I'm married. Comrade Yin, do you think that's a problem?"
Shen Chuning noticed Yin Linjiang's tone and couldn't help but ask.
Yin Linjiang waved his hands awkwardly, “No, no, I just thought Comrade Shen, you look quite young, I didn’t expect you’re already married.”
Shen Chuning smiled and said, "I heard that Comrade Yin is from the city. You may not know that we in the countryside usually get married earlier."
Yin Linjiang also smiled, but there was a hint of loneliness in his smile.
When he first saw Shen Chuning in the morning, he thought she was just a pretty vase, suitable for pleasing the eyes.
But after spending a morning in the same office.
He found that Shen Chuning was not only beautiful, but also very eager to learn and had strong learning ability.
Such a female comrade is exactly his ideal revolutionary comrade with whom he can spend his life together.
He had already thought about pursuing her, but he didn't expect that Shen Chuning was already married.
Peng Kaiyuan added: "Not only is Ningning married, her husband is a soldier."
The shining look in Yin Linjiang's eyes when he looked at Shen Chuning obviously dimmed.
Later, when eating, he seemed a lot quieter and didn't deliberately find topics to talk to Shen Chu Ning.
Peng Kaiyuan was very satisfied with the result.
Shen Chu Ning was very careless in this regard and didn't notice it at all.
After lunch, Shen Chuning obtained Mr. Peng’s consent and went to the post office to send a package to Zhou Yubai.
