There are nine company canteens under Lu Cheng's independent regiment, and three of them want to recruit non-staff personnel. It must be said that Lin Qingqing came at the right time. If she had come later, she might not have been able to get a position. After all, even if they are non-staff personnel, many people are willing to go there even if their monthly salary is not fixed.
Lu Cheng was promoted from deputy battalion commander. Among the three company canteens, he had led one before, so he took Lin Qingqing there directly, numbered as the third company's cooking squad.
Four male comrades from the third company's kitchen were washing vegetables. When they saw Lu Cheng coming, they stood up and saluted: "Deputy Regiment Commander Lu."
Lu Cheng said: "This is my wife, Lin Qingqing." When he said the word "wife", a subtle feeling flashed through his heart unconsciously, and then he introduced Lin Qingqing, "This is Qi Shao, the squad leader of the kitchen. This is Lin Bao, this is Yang Bin, and this is Yang Tieniu."
"Hello, sister-in-law." Qi Shao led everyone to say.
Lin Qingqing smiled and said: "Hello, you can just call me Xiao Lin or Comrade Lin." She was only nineteen years old, and these people were all in their twenties, some might even be thirty, and they were all older than her. She felt a little embarrassed to call herself sister-in-law.
Qi Shao and others looked at Lu Cheng. They didn't dare to call her Xiao Lin.
Lu Cheng said, "You can call her Comrade Lin... I said this morning that my wife is a good cook and wants to be a chef in the cafeteria, so I'm bringing her here for an interview. Qi Shao, just do what you should do and follow the rules."
"Yes, deputy regiment commander." Qi Shao looked at Lin Qingqing and said with a smile, "Comrade Lin, there are quite a few comrades working here. Among them, you are the youngest. Similarly, you may be the one who can least endure hardship. Although our company has less than a hundred people, it is very busy when it is busy, and it will be very hard. Can you endure this hardship?" It's no wonder that Qi Shao thought so, because Lin Qingqing looked delicate and cute, and you could tell at a glance that she was not someone who could endure hardship.
Lin Qingqing said frankly: "If I have to do manual labor, I may not be able to bear the hardship, but I want to be the head chef, responsible for arranging the dishes in the canteen every day."
Qi Shao was stunned: "You want to be the head chef." He is the squad leader, and naturally the head chef of the cooking squad.
Lin Qingqing said: "Yes, I will arrange the meals every day and tell everyone how to make them delicious."
Qi Shao was the first time to encounter such a thing: "To be honest, our place is different from the big canteen. The chefs in the big canteen pay attention to cooking skills, but the people here just need to be full, because there are only a few dishes, and there is no need to make them fancy." So, they are all a group of people without cooking skills.
Lin Qingqing was not nervous. She smiled and said, "How about this? Can I come here for a three-day trial? If Qi Shao is not satisfied with my performance during these three days, I can leave at any time without any salary. How about that?"
"This..." Qi Shao looked at Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng said, "How about this? Let her try her cooking skills here first. If her cooking skills satisfy you, let her come here for a three-day trial. If her cooking skills do not satisfy you, she does not need to come."
Qi Shao thought this was fair and said, "Then please ask Comrade Lin to try it. The materials are what we have here."
Lin Qingqing looked at the materials, green vegetables, potatoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, and a few bags of flour. Lin Qingqing thought about it and immediately came up with an idea. "Excuse me, is there any dough here?"
Qi Shao said, "Yes, for making steamed buns tomorrow. How much does Comrade Lin want?"
Lin Qingqing said, "A little, about the amount of a bowl of noodles."
Qi Shao took out the dough. For him, the amount of a bowl of noodles was easy to estimate.
After Qi Shao took out the dough, Lin Qingqing was not idle. She took two tomatoes and three potatoes, and picked up the tiles next to the potatoes. The tiles were still stained with potato skins. They should be used by the comrades in the kitchen to peel the potatoes. Although there are peeling knives in later generations, it is not difficult for Lin Qingqing to peel potatoes with tiles. She quickly peeled the three potatoes and washed them, and then cut them into small pieces using a rolling knife. The reason for cutting them into small pieces is that they cook quickly.
After that, she started to light a fire. In later generations, although it is the age of electricity, many people in the countryside still like to use stoves, such as Grandma Lin, so Lin Qingqing is also very skilled in using stoves. Even when she is live streaming, she also uses the stove to cook food. Modern people also like this kind of things with a sense of age.
The fire was lit, and a large ladle of water was put in the pot. After the water boiled, Lin Qingqing took out most of the bowl of hot water and put it in the soup bowl. The remaining hot water was directly put in the ladle. Then she used a knife to cut a cross on the tomatoes, and then put the tomatoes in the ladle.
In the kitchen, there was silence. Lu Cheng, Qi Shao and others all looked at Lin Qingqing quietly. Lu Cheng didn't know about the kitchen, but the comrades in the kitchen team did. They were all shocked to see Lin Qingqing cut a cross on the tomato and soaked it in hot water. What was she doing?
But within a minute, Lin Qingqing took out the tomato, peeled it neatly, chopped it up, and put it in the hot oil. A strong tomato smell spread immediately. At this time, the half bowl of hot water that Lin Qingqing had just put in the soup bowl was useful. She poured the hot water into the pot and then put the potato pieces in.
While waiting for the potatoes to cook, she made the dough into dough balls. After the potatoes are cooked, add the seasoning, then scoop out half of the potato soup and put it in two small bowls. Then put the dumplings into the pot, and wait until the dumplings are cooked before scooping them out.
After they are done, Lin said softly: "This bowl of tomato and potato dumplings is for eating as a meal, and these two small bowls of tomato and potato soup are for drinking as soup. Please taste it."
The comrades in the kitchen looked at each other. To be honest, they smelled the fragrance and felt that it must taste good without eating it. Now Lin said softly, please taste it, and the four comrades took out chopsticks and spoons in tacit understanding. Although the food just out of the pot is very hot, their mouths are made of iron. They are used to tasting the food just out of the pot, so they are not afraid.
Two minutes later, they had eaten up two small bowls of tomato and potato soup and a large bowl of tomato and potato dumplings. Their mouths were still steaming.
Qi Shao said, "I didn't expect that tomatoes and potatoes could be cooked like this. We usually just steam potatoes in the pot. Even tomatoes taste better than what we usually cook. Comrade Lin made the tomato taste better by doing this."
Lin smiled and said, "Whether it's tomatoes or potatoes, there are many ways to cook them. For example, potatoes with soy sauce and garlic, and sour potato shreds, the taste is amazing. For tomatoes, there are also fried eggs with tomatoes, fried meat with tomatoes, fried eggplant with tomatoes, etc. You can Trust me, just hand over your kitchen to me, even if it's the same dish, I guarantee that the comrades in your company will eat happier than those in other companies. "Lin Qingqing said with the passion she had when facing fans during the live broadcast, "You are already hard enough in training or on missions, and it must be a very happy thing to be able to eat a delicious meal."
Lu Cheng looked at Lin Qingqing, and a deep smile appeared in his deep eyes. He didn't know that she had such eloquence.
Lin Bao was the youngest of the four comrades in the cooking squad. After listening to Lin Qingqing's words, he couldn't help but say, "Squad leader, let's agree with my sister-in-law. I want to eat everything my sister-in-law said."
Yang Bin also said: "In the future, our third company's kitchen team will envy them to death."
Yang Tieniu was the most honest. He nodded and said nothing, but the light in his eyes was very bright.
Qi Shao also made up his mind to let Lin Qingqing come. He considered more aspects. First, Lin Qingqing is the wife of Deputy Regiment Lu. After coming to the kitchen team, she can control the undisciplined brats when eating. Second, just give face to Deputy Regiment Lu. Third, of course, it was Lin Qingqing's cooking skills that conquered him. From her cooking movements, you can tell that she is not a novice, and she is also someone who often goes to the kitchen. Originally, he recruited two errand boys, but now Lin Qingqing is the head chef, so it doesn't matter if these old men do more odd jobs. "Okay, Comrade Lin, welcome to become one of us." Qi Shao saluted.
Lin Qingqing also saluted in return: "Thank you, squad leader, thank you all comrades, please give me more advice in the future."
...
When Lin Qingqing came out of the third company's kitchen, she was very excited. In her excitement, she did not forget Lu Cheng: "Lu Cheng, thank you for today."
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows: "We are husband and wife, there is no need to be so polite. And I didn't help, you convinced Qi Shao with your cooking skills." If it weren't for her good cooking skills, Qi Shao would not have agreed so readily.
"No matter what, I still have to thank you. How about this, do you want to eat something? I will cook it for you to show my gratitude." This is all she can show.
Lu Cheng thought about it and said without hesitation: "Then let's have this tomato and potato noodles tomorrow morning."
Lin Qingqing said straightforwardly: "No problem, add a poached egg and some vegetables, it will taste better." It would be even better if there was beef.
Lu Cheng curled his lips: "Okay."
"By the way..." Lin Qingqing remembered something, "If we have a dinner party tonight, I want to prepare an extra table in the empty room to entertain the children, and let Haici invite his friends to come over. What do you think?" It was also an indirect way to tell the children in the kindergarten that Lu Haici has a family and not anyone can bully him.
When Lu Cheng heard her words, he thought of the quarrel between Lu Haici and Qin Ming, and he knew her intention. "Okay." He didn't expect that she would be so attentive to Lu Haici. "Thank you, Comrade Lin Qingqing." He thanked her solemnly.
"You're welcome. Let's go to the kindergarten and talk to Haici about this." After thinking for a while, she said, "When you are free, you can send him to the kindergarten or pick him up from school. The presence of parents has a very shocking effect."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lu Cheng's voice was much softer than before.
However, Lin Qingqing obviously didn't hear it.
In the kindergarten, the children were playing the game of Eagle Catches Chicken outside, and Lu Haici was among them. If it were in the past, Lu Haici would not play games with everyone, but after yesterday's tofu pancakes, White Rabbit milk candy, and the morning wheat rolls, Lu Haici is now very popular in the kindergarten, so everyone will call Lu Haici to play games.
At this moment, Lu Haici was playing Eagle, but because he was usually introverted and had never played this game, he never caught the chicken. But Lu Haici had a good personality and was very patient.
Lu Haici aimed at one of the children who was a little tired from running, and when he stopped to rest again, Lu Haici rushed up and grabbed the child's hand: "I caught it, I caught the chicken."
Unexpectedly, the child pushed Lu Haici.
Lu Haici didn't stand firmly, and he landed on his butt and was pushed to the ground.
"Why did you push Lu Haici?" Ji Yang saw it, rushed over, stood in front of Lu Haici, and glared at the child angrily.
The kid said, "He hurt my hand."
"Then you can't push people." Ji Yang said, "You apologize to Lu Haici."
At the same time, Qin Ming pulled Lu Haici up from the ground. Compared with Ji Yang's gentle tone, he was much more arrogant: "You apologize to Lu Haici, otherwise we won't play with you." The kid's threat was so direct, if you don't apologize, we won't play with you. "If you
don't want to play, then don't play." This kid also has a temper, "You all ate Lu Haici's food to play with him, you have no shame."
Qin Ming said as a matter of course: "We ate Lu Haici's food, so of course we have to play with him." He ate the food and still didn't play with him, even if he was a kid, he felt shameless.
The child: "So, after you ate my food, you can play with me?"
Qin Ming: "You haven't given us food yet."
Ji Yang and Qin Ming have different attitudes: "If you don't apologize to Lu Haici, I won't play with you even if I eat your food." The freeloader is justified.
The child got angry: "I said, he scratched my hand and hurt it, so I pushed him."
Ji Yang: "Then you have to apologize too, it's wrong to push people."
"I won't." The child stared at Ji Yang, "You are all raised by your stepmother, so it's okay... Qin Ming, what about you, do you want to be okay with them too?"
Qin Ming said: "I have reconciled with Lu Haici. My grandfather said that a real man should not be petty. I want to be a hero in the future, so I have to be generous."
"Then I won't play with you, humph, I won't give you food tomorrow." The child ran away angrily.
Lu Haici looked at each other, then at Ji Yang and Qin Ming. He was still a little confused. How did it turn out like this? Lu Haici patted his buttocks slowly to shake off the dust on his pants.
"Lu Haici..."
Just at this moment, Lin Qingqing's voice came from the entrance of the playground.
Lu Haici had sharp ears. When he heard his mother's voice, he turned around and saw not only his mother, but also his father. "My mom and dad are here to see me." Lu Haici said proudly to the little boy, and then ran towards his mom and dad, "Mom, why are you here?"
Lin Qingqing saw some sweat on his forehead, knowing that he must be tired from playing just now, she said, "Lu Haici, you can't take off your clothes when you sweat, otherwise you will catch a cold. If you catch a cold, you will have to get a shot in the butt, which is very painful." Lu Haici
touched his butt subconsciously, and his little head shook like a rattle: "I won't take off my clothes." He was afraid of injections.
Lin praised softly: "That's good. We are having a party tonight. How many good friends do you have? You can invite them to our house for dinner."
Lu Haici looked at the children over there, and he stretched out his fingers to count: "There are six." In addition to Ji Yang, there are four who helped him fight before, and later he shared candies with them, and one is Qin Ming. Although he was a little confused about what happened just now, he knew that Qin Ming helped him.
Lin said softly: "Then after school, you invite your six good friends to your house for dinner. You are the little host, so you have to be enthusiastic when inviting good friends. If they agree to come to our house for dinner in the evening, then you have to go to their house after school and tell their parents so that they don't worry."
Lu Haici likes to hear his mother say that he is the little master, so he said with high aspirations: "I know, I will invite them."
Lin Qingqing touched his head: "Then we will go home, and see you at home after school." As she said that, she waved to Lu Haici.
Lu Haici also waved: "See you at home after school."
Lu Cheng watched them interacting, and was grateful for Lin Qingqing's thoughtfulness to Lu Haici, but also felt that these two people were too boring.
After the parents left, Lu Haici returned to the group of children. Ji Yang asked curiously: "Lu Haici, why did your mother come to see you?"
Lu Haici said proudly: "My mother said that our family will have a party tonight, and asked me to invite my good friend to our house for dinner."
"Wow, your family is having a party again, is Auntie going to cook something delicious?" Ji Yang has been conquered by Lin Qingqing's cooking skills. Even though he has only eaten there twice, he is completely conquered, mainly because the things Lin Qingqing cooks are so unique.
Lu Haici puffed out his chest and said: "I don't know either. My mother said that I am the little master, and my family is having a party, and asked me to invite my good friend. Ji Yang, you are my good friend, please come to my house for dinner tonight."
Ji Yang was of course obliged to do so. Even if Lu Haici didn't ask him, he would go. So he agreed so readily: "We are double best friends, I will definitely go."
"Yes." Lu Haici invited Ji Yang and looked at Qin Ming, "Qin Ming, we are friends too, why don't you come to my house for dinner tonight?"
Qin Ming is the person who likes lively occasions the most. In this era when food is precious and people don't easily go to other people's houses for dinner, it is so honorable to be invited by a child to have dinner. He didn't have to think about it at all: "Okay, I will definitely go."
Next, Lu Haici went to invite the remaining four good friends. While
Lu Haici was inviting friends, Lin Qingqing and Lu Cheng were not idle either. They also went to invite people separately. Lin Qingqing went to invite the person who sent her to the hospital that day, and Lu Cheng went to invite the brothers who were good friends with him in the army.
Qin Family
Yu Xiuyao heard the purpose of Lin Qingqing's visit and felt that Lu Cheng's wife was really polite. "It's not a big deal.
Why should I invite anyone? No, no." Lin said softly, "It's a piece of cake for you sisters-in-law, but it's a life-saving favor for me. How can I let it go? Besides, I've been with the army for more than half a month and haven't had the chance to get to know you all. So sister-in-law, don't be polite with me. I also want to integrate into the group and learn together how to be a good army wife. Besides, Lu Cheng also invited a few friends over, so I invited everyone as a courtesy."
Yu Xiuyao said helplessly, "You've said all the good things." Generally speaking, newlyweds like Lu Cheng who bring their wives to join the army will indeed invite everyone to dinner to get to know each other, which can be regarded as their wedding banquet. So Yu Xiuyao did not refuse anymore, "Then I'll take you to find some people."
Lin Qingqing: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
When Yu Xiuyao sent Lin Qingqing to the hospital, she asked three military wives to help. At that time, Lin Qingqing was like a corpse. Even the strongest female comrades had some difficulty moving a corpse. Yu Xiuyao and the three military wives sent Lin Qingqing to the door, and then called a male comrade to drive Lin Qingqing to the hospital. So everyone who helped had to be called.
When asking everyone to come for dinner, it was naturally impossible to call only one person. Generally, the whole family would come, so in this way, one dining table was obviously not enough for the Lu family. After returning home, Lin Qingqing asked Lu Cheng to borrow two more sets of tables and chairs, a total of three sets, which could seat more than 30 people, which was almost enough.
Lu Cheng went to the cafeteria to borrow tables and chairs, and Lin Qingqing began to prepare dinner.
"Qingqing..." She had just taken out the dishes when she saw Yu Xiuyao coming with a basket full of dishes. Yu Xiuyao's whole family came to eat, and their family had a good relationship with Lu Cheng, so they didn't bother to be polite. When Lu Cheng first joined the army, he was a subordinate of Yu Xiuyao's husband Qin Dashan. Later, Lu Cheng was assigned to an independent regiment, but the relationship between the two families has always been good. In addition, when Lu Cheng was on a mission, Lu Haici was fostered in the Qin family, and the relationship between the two families became even better.
"Sister-in-law is here, so why is she here? Why is she bringing things?" Lin Qingqing looked at the basket full of dishes and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Their family prepared a lot of dishes today. Since they were entertaining guests, they naturally wanted to make the guests satisfied.
Yu Xiuyao said, "I grew it myself, and you're still being polite to me? What do you want me to wash? You can arrange it."
Lin Qingqing prepared ten dishes for each table today, including minced meat stewed eggs, braised eggplant, cold cucumber, tomato scrambled eggs, leek braised pumpkin, mashed garlic vegetables, potato and kelp soup, stir-fried loofah, sour potato shreds, and pickled fish fillet soup.
For the staple food, there were cabbage cornmeal dumplings and sweet potato rice. The children's table prepared pumpkin cakes and mashed sweet potatoes.
She was also sensible. If all three tables were to be served with rice, how much would it cost? In comparison, cornmeal was cheaper, so she made cabbage cornmeal dumplings, which was both convenient and delicious. Sweet potato rice is also delicious. Rice is the base, and a layer of sweet potatoes is placed on top. When the rice is cooked, the sweetness of the sweet potatoes will blend into the rice, and the sweet taste is also great. If it is not sweet enough, add some sugar water when cooking. People in this era will not refuse to cook rice with sugar water.
Lin Qingqing took out all the vegetables to be washed: "Sister-in-law, help me wash the vegetables, I will knead the dough first."
Yu Xiuyao: "Okay."
Yu Xiuyao was quick and skillful. Before Lin Qingqing had finished kneading the dough, she had washed a lot of vegetables. In the meantime, Lu Cheng came with a cart, and the cart was full of tables and stools. "Where should this be put?" Lu Cheng asked.
Lin Qingqing said, "Put a table in the empty room for the children. Put a table in the hall for the gays, and put a table in the yard for the lesbians."
Three tables, one trip of the cart is not enough, so Lu Cheng pulled three times before he got all the tables and chairs in place. Then, Lin Qingqing and Yu Xiuyao went to the table in the hall to cut vegetables. Each dish was in three portions. So the Lu family not only did not have enough tables and chairs, but also borrowed a lot of bowls from the cafeteria.
By the time all the dishes were cut, it was almost four o'clock. It's time to prepare the kitchen, otherwise how can we handle so many dishes. Speaking of cooking, this is the advantage of the iron pot, because the iron pot is relatively large, and it is enough to hold three bowls for one dish. What's more, the iron pot is so big that even if you use a spatula to shovel hard, it won't come out. If it were a modern pot, it would definitely not be able to hold three bowls of dishes.
Among the ten dishes, cold vegetables and dishes that don't affect the taste much when they are cold should be cooked first. At the same time, the soup can also be cooked.
So Lin Qingqing first made the cold cucumber salad, and then cooked potato and kelp soup in the clay pot. The most important thing for the cold cucumber salad is the soul sauce. Cut the cucumber into sections, then crush it with a knife, and then add the soul sauce. As long as the soul sauce is well seasoned, it will be ready quickly. The soul sauce she prepared is soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar, but unfortunately there is no coriander. Lin Qingqing likes to eat coriander, and she thinks it will be more fragrant if coriander is added.
Yu Xiuyao wanted to help cook, but the kitchen was so small and there was only one stove, so it would be difficult for two people to cook, so she helped Lin Qingqing.
Yu Xiuyao was skeptical about Lin Qingqing cooking, after all, she was only 19 years old. In the eyes of Yu Xiuyao, who was in her 30s, wasn't she just a little girl? But when she saw Lin Qingqing washing and cutting vegetables skillfully, she knew that this little girl could cook.
"Can you do this with cucumbers?" She was shocked to see Lin Qingqing pour the prepared sauce into the smashed cucumbers. Especially since sugar is precious, how can you eat it by mixing it in cucumbers?
Lin Qingqing directly used chopsticks to pick up a piece of cucumber dipped in sauce and gave it to Yu Xiuyao: "Sister-in-law, taste it, but I don't know if you like it."
Yu Xiuyao's eyes lit up after she ate it: "This taste is quite special, sour, salty and sweet. It tastes good, but it's a waste of sugar."
Lin Qingqing smiled slightly. She understood Yu Xiuyao's idea, but Yu Xiuyao didn't understand her idea. For modern people, eating is not only about filling the stomach, but also about tasting the taste. But for people of this era, because of limited resources, they pay more attention to filling their stomachs. Only those with extremely good conditions at home will pay attention to taste.
After Yu Xiuyao moved the cold cucumber down, Lin Qingqing began to stir-fry the sour potato shreds. This dish can be eaten hot or cold.
There is no trick to making sour potato shreds. After the potato shreds are rinsed with water, heat the oil in a pan, and then add salt and rice vinegar. Because it doesn't need to be fried too much, it will be ready quickly.
Next is fried pumpkin with leeks and green vegetables with mashed garlic. These dishes don't affect the taste much even if they are cold.
After these two dishes are fried, it's fried loofah with eggs. At the same time, the potato and kelp soup can be served. The potato and kelp soup tastes very delicious, and the delicious taste comes from kelp, which is also a nutritious vegetable.
Yu Xiuyao just brought the potato and kelp soup out the door, and saw the military wives who sent Lin Qingqing to the hospital coming in with baskets. One of the military wives said, "We are late, and we wanted to help."
Yu Xiuyao said, "Just wait and eat. These dishes today are all made by Lu Cheng's wife, and I am just helping to serve the dishes." These three people have a good relationship with Yu Xiuyao. Of course, when Lin Qingqing fainted from a fever, Yu Xiuyao would call for help, and they were all people she knew well.
"Really? Then we must taste it carefully."
Lin Qingqing said from inside: "Sisters-in-law, sit outside and have some biscuits and candies." The dishes on the table outside were not served yet. Instead, there were biscuits, White Rabbit candies, and fruit candies bought in the morning. There were many guests, and they could not afford to entertain them with just White Rabbit candies, so they naturally had to include fruit candies.
"You take care of your own business, and we will have fun on our own." Although they said so, the three military wives all carried the baskets to the kitchen. Since this person had come and the things had been delivered, they naturally had to let the host know.
Lin Qingqing said, "The sisters-in-law are so warm-hearted."
"They are all vegetables grown by ourselves. If you like them, you can pick them anytime."
"That's right. We can't afford other food, but we have vegetables."
Lin Qingqing said, "We just planted the vegetables today. It's just the time when we are short of vegetables. The vegetables sent by the sisters-in-law are really what I want."
Hearing Lin Qingqing say this, the three military wives all laughed. Lin Qingqing was cooking inside, and they didn't disturb her. Seeing that the vegetables were washed and cut, they really had nothing to do, so they sat outside.
One of them saw that there was movement in the small house next to her, and curiously went to see it. She saw Lu Cheng busy inside. "Deputy Colonel Lu, are you digging a cellar?"
Hearing this military wife's words, the other two military wives also came to see.
Lu Cheng had been digging a hole for two hours, so he was already in the hole, and the dirt he dug out was piled up on one side, almost blocking him.
"It would be nice to dig a cellar here. We also want to dig a cellar so we can store things there." said another military wife.
"We're not digging a cellar, we're digging a squat toilet." said Lu Cheng.
"What?"
The three military wives standing at the door were dumbfounded.
"Doesn't this family compound have a toilet? Why dig a squat toilet?"
Lu Cheng: "It's for convenience." Of course he wouldn't say that it was Lin Qingqing who asked for it, as such words would cause gossip for Lin Qingqing, so he wouldn't say it.
In the kitchen, Lin Qingqing's dishes were almost done. Braised eggplant and tomato scrambled eggs were also ready. Finally, the pumpkin cake was taken out of the pot, and only the minced meat stewed eggs, pickled fish soup and cabbage and cornmeal dumplings were left.
The rice was cooked in the iron pot, and a steaming bar was placed on top, and the minced meat stewed eggs were steamed. The pickled fish soup was cooked in the clay pot, which was actually pickled fish soup. The cabbage and cornmeal dumplings were made last.
"This pumpkin cake tastes good." Yu Xiuyao ate one. She watched when Lin Qingqing was making pumpkin cakes. They were both sugared and fried. She didn't even blink when she saw Lin Qingqing put them away. If it were her, she would really be reluctant to put them away.
Lin Qingqing said, "I made a lot of pumpkin cakes. Sister-in-law can take some home later." She still had some dough balls left, and she would eat steamed buns made from pumpkin dough balls tomorrow morning.
"No, no, give it to everyone. I've learned how to make it myself." Of course, this was to respond to Lin Qingqing's words. Her children had grown up and didn't need to eat such snacks.
Kindergarten
As soon as the children finished school, they went home. Lu Haici and Ji Yang were in the same group, so they went home together. Qin Ming quickly put on his small schoolbag and ran to Lu Haici: "Lu Haici, I'll go home and tell my grandma, and then I'll go to your house for dinner."
Lu Haici: "Well, you have to hurry."
Qin Ming: "I know." He ran home like the wind.
At the Qin family, Zhang Hongping also cooked, making the fried meat that her baby grandson loved.
"Grandma..." Qin Ming ran into the house and asked breathlessly, "Grandma, Lu Haici invited me to his house for dinner."
Zhang Hongping was stunned: "Why did Lu Haici invite you to his house for dinner?" Speaking of it, Zhang Hongping was still angry about the matter between Qin Ming and Lu Haici, and she was thinking about how to make a comeback. However, before she could come up with a solution, her grandson and Lu Haici reconciled, which made Zhang Hongping unable to make a comeback, so she could only let it go. Not only that, after returning from school yesterday, the grandson went to Yang's house and made a scene, asking Yang Mailian not to say bad things about Lu Haici's mother anymore. This made Zhang Hongping even more surprised. After careful inquiry, she found out that Lu Haici had apologized to him and treated him to food. So they became friends.
Zhang Hongping was able to provoke Yang Mailian, which showed that she was a shrewd person. Lu Haici and Sun Zi became friends, and she could only endure everything. She couldn't take Sun Zi to deal with his friend's family, right?
