Qin Xiao'e felt a little distressed when she heard this and suggested, "Aren't you also taking on some private work outside now? You can take on some military compounds."
You can make money and get in touch with soldiers.
"I don't have any connections there."
"When Ye Qing comes tomorrow, I'll tell her that if any family in the military compound wants to hold a banquet, I can ask her to recommend you."
Zhuzi excitedly held Qin Xiao'e's hand and said, "Xiao'e, you are so kind to me."
Qin Xiao'e quickly broke free and scolded, "We're out there, it's not good for others to see us."
Zhuzi smiled and touched the back of his head, "I'm too excited, I'm sorry."
…
That day, Ye Qing and Sister Han pushed Zhou Zhou Youyou out to play, and happened to meet the military wives in the compound and chatted with them.
Seeing many children there, she pushed two boats over.
Zhou Zhou and You You now really like playing with kids who are older than them, even though no one wants to bother with little kids like them who can't even speak.
Sure enough, Zhou Zhou and You You shouted excitedly when they saw the little brothers and sisters.
By the way, this month, the two babies have acquired a new skill, which is shouting.
They shouted from day to night, and Ye Qing was afraid that they would lose their voices.
The military wives were familiar with Ye Qing and his two children. When they saw them coming over, they greeted them and continued chatting.
"Have you heard? Captain Zhao is getting married."
"I remember his wife died less than six months ago, and they got married so soon."
"Who knows? They said they were introduced and they got married because they seemed suitable."
"The two children in their family are not yet big."
"Not big, one is five years old and the other is three years old."
"The child's father said to look for him and he went to look for him. It's hard for the children."
"Who says it isn't? By the way, do you know Captain Zhao's new wife?"
"I know. It's the doctor from the central hospital next door. I saw him when I went to see a doctor."
…
When Ye Qing heard them talking about marriage, he remembered what Qin Xiao'e had said to him two days ago, so he went up to them and asked, "Where will Captain Zhao's wedding be held?"
"It's in the military compound."
"Have you found the chef who will be in charge of the banquet?"
"I don't know about that either. Go ask Sister Cui'e. She's familiar with Captain Zhao's family."
After pushing Zhou Zhou and You You back home with Sister Han, Ye Qing went next door.
"Sister Cui'e."
Li Cui'e was mending shoe soles in the room. When she heard the voice, she stood up and said, "Hey, Ye Qing, you are a rare guest. Come and sit down."
Ye Qing sat down next to her and asked, "Sister-in-law, I just heard from people in the courtyard that Captain Zhao is getting married?"
"Yes, on the eighteenth of this month."
Her husband is from the same hometown as Captain Zhao, so he has to go and help on the wedding day.
Ye Qing, "Has he found a chef for the banquet?"
"No, there's still half a month left, so there's no rush."
"If not, I'd like to recommend a chef who has been working for over 20 years and has excellent cooking skills."
Li Cui'e was a little surprised. Why did Ye Qing suddenly recommend a chef?
If it weren't for the fact that Zhuzi wrote a few recipes for her, she wouldn't have bothered to put in so much effort.
She doesn't help everyone.
"That chef is the girlfriend of a salesperson in our store, and now he cooks in the kitchen of a steel plant.
You know, the wages at the steel mill are limited. It's OK if you have a small family, but if you have more, it's not enough to spend. You have to find other ways to make money."
Li Cui'e nodded, indicating that she understood. "Okay, I'll talk to Captain Zhao someday. If it's okay, I'll have him come over and try the food."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
The next day, Li Cui'e told Ye Qing that Director Zhao agreed and asked the chef to come and taste the food.
Ye Qing didn't want to go to the store today. Ye Lin was about to go out, so he asked him to stop by the store and tell Qin Xiao'e about this.
The food tasting process went smoothly. Captain Zhao was very satisfied with the dishes made by Zhuzi and immediately decided to let him host the banquet.
Zhuzi was very happy and gave Ye Qing some recipes for other dishes.
Soon, it was the day for Captain Zhao’s wedding.
Ye Qing was originally going to go to the banquet with Chen Lie, but Zhou Zhou and You You were teething recently and were not feeling well, so they were particularly clinging to her.
He starts crying if I leave him for a while.
Ye Qing let Chen Lie go alone.
Chen Lie carried Zhou Zhou, who was grinding his teeth, and said, "I'm not going either."
Ye Qing glared at her, "No, if you don't go, the gift money will be wasted. We still have Sister Han and Sister Wang at home, it's okay."
Shen Lie had no choice but to go to the banquet.
But I was thinking that I would come back quickly to be with Ye Qing and the children after eating.
When Chen Lie arrived at Captain Zhao's place, most of the guests had already arrived.
Political Commissar Li, who was already seated, called out to him, "Chen Lie, this way."
Shen Lie walked over and sat next to him.
"Why are you so late?"
Chen Lie, "Don't mention it. Zhou Zhou and You You are teething lately and are very annoying."
Political Commissar Li, who has three children of his own, had experience with this and consoled him, saying, "All children are like this. It will be fine once the teeth grow in. Just give him some time to grind his teeth. He'll stop fussing once he feels better."
Shen Lie nodded and hummed.
Because it was a second marriage, the wedding ceremony was very simple and the dishes were served in no time.
Political Commissar Li took a bite and said, "This dish tastes really good. Where did you hire the chef? Chen Lie, you should try it too."
Shen Lie knew that the chef who cooked the food was the same one from the steel plant, whom Ye Qing had mentioned to him.
But I didn't tell Political Commissar Li because I didn't want to cause any more trouble.
Because he wanted to go back early, Chen Lie ate quickly.
Political Commissar Li had just eaten halfway when Shen Lie finished.
"Are you leaving now?"
Shen Lie nodded.
Political Commissar Li shook his head. This Chen Lie was really different from them.
After they got married, they all wanted to go home later.
Shen Lie tried to get home as quickly as possible.
Is it because the marriage was short?
But he has been married for almost two years now, I really don’t understand.
Chen Lie didn't care what Political Commissar Li was thinking. He just wanted to go back quickly to accompany Ye Qing and the babies.
"Zhu Zi, you did a good job today. Here, this is your wages."
"That's all I should do. Captain Zhao, I'm in a rush. Can I borrow your place to use the restroom?"
"Go ahead."
When I was about to reach the door, I suddenly heard the voices of Captain Zhao talking to Zhuzi next to me.
I've heard Ye Qing mention this guy named Zhuzi a few times, but I've never seen what he looks like.
Shen Lie turned his head to look.
A man wearing a white apron and looking honest and simple appeared in front of him.
Zhuzi didn't notice Chen Lie. He thanked Captain Zhao and went to the toilet.
…
Ye Qing, who was feeding Zhou Zhou, heard some movement at the door. He looked up and saw that it was Chen Lie who had returned. He asked, "How was the food at the banquet today?"
The chef was recommended by her.
If she doesn't do well, she will lose face.
