Chapter 806: The End of Another Year
On New Year's Day, the shopping mall in Yisang City opened, and the whole family went there, even Grandma Jiu was brought along.
It was the first time that Mother Lu and Father Lu saw the grand opening ceremony. The old couple were once again shocked by the abilities of their eldest daughter-in-law.
"Wan San, we must have accumulated blessings in our previous life, otherwise we wouldn't have such a capable and filial daughter-in-law."
Father Lu also felt like he was dreaming.
"Zi Jin is really amazing. They are so lucky."
Yes, having such a good sister-in-law and having several children is not a small blessing but a great blessing.
Mother Lu took a deep breath and said, "We should love her more in the future."
"Um."
My daughter-in-law is more caring than my daughter, how can I not love her?
After New Year’s Day, the Chinese New Year is almost here.
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Zijin went to the province.
Business in the provincial capital is particularly good this year, and the grain and oil stores and shopping malls are booming.
In early December, a large group of veterans from the N Division retired, and she took the opportunity to recruit dozens of new people.
Now Xu Zijin is already strong and healthy.
"Zijin, you're here just in time."
"What's wrong?"
Xu Zijin looked at Anya with curiosity.
Anya pulled her along and smiled: "My dad said that the province held an economic work conference and there will be new actions next year."
"He said that if possible, he wanted our small appliance factory to try it out."
Yes, yes.
The industrial chain in Guangdong Province has begun to expand, and many companies in the province have established business contacts with foreign companies there.
Xu Zijin read the investigation report prepared by Xiao Mingjian, and since Niu Niantao had a new product, she also had the same idea.
After taking a sip of tea, Xu Zijin said softly: "Anya, this is really great."
"Then we will produce our new products here. After the New Year, we will ask Guangming to find some professional talents."
“Don’t worry about the high salary, as long as you have solid skills.”
"Um."
The high price doesn’t matter, as long as you have the ability. Today’s Anya is no longer the Anya who opened a small clothing store two years ago.
After they finished talking, Anya gave this quarter's report to Xu Zijin.
After reading the report, Xu Zijin thought of one more thing: "Anya, among this year's newcomers, there are many people with good abilities."
"Tell Guangming to take a good look at the information of these people and pick out the right ones for training."
"good."
To accomplish great things, you must have people. People without vision cannot accomplish great things!
Anya nodded and agreed. She seemed to see a bright future beckoning to her...
Shopping malls, clothing stores, and grain and oil stores have all done year-end settlement.
After reviewing the accounts, Xu Zijin proposed a dividend plan, held a year-end summary meeting, and commended outstanding individuals.
When I returned home, the Little New Year had already passed and there were only five days left before the Big New Year.
There have been too many changes in the cadres of the League this year. Many people have just arrived at new positions and there are a lot of things to do.
Everyone was working hard to achieve results, and in the entire regiment, not a single cadre in a new position asked for a vacation.
"Zijin, let's celebrate the New Year together this year. We will have fewer opportunities to meet in the future."
Chen Xiumei was reluctant to leave the army, but Wang Jianqiang's physical condition made it impossible for him to continue working in the army, so there was nothing she could do.
So, she wanted to spend the New Year with her sisters.
After Xu Zijin came back from the city, Chen Xiumei ran over.
When she heard the plan, she immediately applauded and said, "What a good idea! Let's have a big reunion."
"But let's set it up in the group guesthouse, there's plenty of space there."
"Besides, we don't need to borrow dishes and chopsticks. We can celebrate the New Year together with several soldiers in the guesthouse."
Chen Xiumei was naturally willing, and she said happily: "Okay, I'll buy the groceries, don't snatch them from me."
"Hahaha!"
This guy is rich!
Seeing Chen Xiumei's determined expression, Xu Zijin was amused: "I won't rob you, but I can't let you go alone."
"Since we are celebrating the New Year together, everyone has to contribute to this dish."
"How about this, you serve two dishes, I serve two dishes, and Sister Qi Hong serves two more."
"That way, there will be six large dishes."
"As for vegetables, pick whatever is in the field. Pick as many as you can find."
"Okay, that's settled!"
Chen Xiumei happily agreed.
The battalion commander's family will come to the camp to celebrate the New Year with the soldiers.
Xu Zilan, Xu Yu, Ye Lin and Zhu Xiaoping were unable to attend this family gathering.
As soon as Xu Zijin talked to Lu Hanzhou about this in the evening, he immediately made a request.
"Call Tang Hao's family and Lao Chang's family. If we're going to do this, let's do it on a big scale."
"As for what dishes to serve, it's up to you women to decide."
"The dinner will be served one hour later than at the grassroots level. We will go around the grassroots level and come back."
"no problem."
Xu Zijin agreed immediately.
The next night, she called Qi Hong, Chen Xiumei, Gu Xiaotian and Chang Qiumian.
By the way, I mentioned Lu Hanzhou's suggestion.
Chang Qiumian was the happiest. She shouted, "I'm offering meat and chicken. You can't snatch them from me!"
When Chen Xiumei heard this, she immediately responded, "Then I'll serve goose and pig's feet."
Gu Xiaotian was not to be outdone: "I'll offer one beef and one sparerib."
Qi Hong was anxious. Her usually quiet voice suddenly became much louder: "Then I'll serve fish and sausages."
Xu Zijin laughed when he heard this and said, "You all rushed to speak up, so why should I speak up?"
"This way, each family can serve a large dish."
"Sister Chang produces pork, Sister Gu produces beef, and Sister Xiumei produces goose."
"Sister Qi Hong, you provide the chicken, and I'll provide the fish and shrimp. This year, we'll create a new way to eat it for everyone."
"Don't think that it will be easy just because your family only serves one dish."
"I counted the number of people, there are six large tables, so stop arguing."
Five big dishes are actually quite rich.
However, Chang Qiumian said, "The pig farm will slaughter a lot of pigs during the New Year. I won't take advantage of other bargains. I will just buy two sets of pig offal when the time comes."
"Six big dishes, six good luck, a good omen."
"Teacher Xu, can you help me make the five-flavor stew?"
There is definitely no problem with this.
Xu Zijin nodded: "Okay, then six main dishes and six cold dishes."
"I have jellyfish at home. I'll make pickled pepper jellyfish skin."
"Make me some spicy preserved eggs. I have wine at home, so the wine is mine."
As soon as the voice fell, Chen Xiumei rushed to say: "I have peanuts, deep-fry some drunkard peanuts, and boil some sour plum peanuts."
Seeing that everyone was scrambling for it again, Gu Xiaotian became extremely anxious.
She said loudly, "I have dried fish. Spicy dried fish goes best with wine."
"Okay, okay, you guys have already grabbed everything else, so I'll make some potato sticks. I'm pretty good at this dish."
Qi Hong rushed to speak.
Chang Qiumian didn’t get any cold dishes, so he ordered four vegetables in a row.
"I have a lot of greens, spinach, red cabbage, and Chinese cabbage in my fields."
"It's best to stew Chinese cabbage with vermicelli using brine. I also have vermicelli at home."
