After work, Yan Jiekuang was not in a hurry to go home. He would go to Beihai Park tomorrow.
Ding Qiunan would definitely be there.
"Ding Qiunan seems to like to eat sugar-fried chestnuts.”Yan Jiekuang thought.
In this era, it was already good enough to be full. There were very few snacks, and sugar-fried chestnuts were not cheap.
Yan Jiekuang thought about it and rode his bicycle to Pigeon City.
There were chestnuts sold in Pigeon City, and they cost 70 cents per catty.
It was even more expensive to buy the sugar-fried chestnuts directly. One catty was at least two yuan.
Since he knew how to make sugar-fried chestnuts, he would buy raw chestnuts.
After walking around Pigeon City, Yan Jiekuang bought three catties of chestnuts.
Chestnuts came in different sizes. There were many small ones and few big ones. When making sugar-fried chestnuts, big chestnuts and small chestnuts could not be cooked together. Otherwise, when the small chestnuts were cooked, the big chestnuts would still be raw. Or when the big chestnuts were cooked, the small chestnuts would be burnt.
After buying three catties of chestnuts, Yan Jiekuang left Pigeon City.
Then, he found a place where no one was around and took out the pot, white sugar, and oil from the Green Lotus Space.
The big chestnuts and small chestnuts were separated and washed.
First, he placed the big chestnuts into the pot.
Yan Jiekuang had made sugar-fried chestnuts before he transmigrated, so he was very familiar with it.
In about ten minutes, a pot of sugar-fried chestnuts was almost ready.
After tasting one, Yan Jiekuang nodded. There was no problem with the taste.
Then, he placed the small chestnuts into the pot.
……
Early in the morning, Yan Jiekuang arrived at Beihai Park.
Not long after, Ding Qiunan arrived.
Ding Qiunan was a little happy to see Yan Jiekuang again after not seeing him for a few days.
"I made some sugar-fried chestnuts yesterday.”Yan Jiekuang took out the Sugar-Fried Chestnuts he made yesterday.
"Sugar-fried chestnuts?" Ding Qiunan was stunned. She had liked to eat sweet stir-fried chestnuts since she was young. Yan Jiekuang obviously knew about it.
"Is he really my old friend? But why don't I have any impression of it?”Ding Qiunan thought.
Looking at the sugar-fried chestnuts in Yan Jiekuang's hands, Ding Qiunan found it hard to resist.
"Come, have a taste. What should I do with the sugar-fried chestnuts I made?”Yan Jiekuang smiled.
Ding Qiunan hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took a small chestnut.
Ding Qiunan's beautiful eyes narrowed when she opened the shell and ate it.
"Did you really do this?" Ding Qiunan couldn't believe it. This was definitely the best sugar-fried chestnut she had ever eaten.
"How can this be fake?"
Ding Qiunan and Yan Jiekuang's relationship became closer as they ate Yan Jiekuang's sugar-fried chestnuts.
Yan Jiekuang liked Ding Qiunan, so he could pursue her.
Yan Jiekuang chatted with Ding Qiunan while eating chestnuts.
"You're working?" Ding Qiunan was rather surprised.
"Yes, I'm now an intern in the medical room of the rolling mill.”Yan Jiekuang said casually.
Ding Qiunan was even more surprised when she heard Yan Jiekuang's words.
There was only one rolling mill in the capital, and it was a large factory with tens of thousands of workers. It was not easy to work in the medical room of the rolling mill.
Most importantly, Yan Jiekuang was still young.
After sitting for a long time, Yan Jiekuang and Ding Qiunan went for a walk and even rowed a boat.
Ding Qiunan ate most of the sugar-fried chestnuts that Yan Jiekuang made.
Yan Jiekuang didn't really like to eat sugar-fried chestnuts.
After playing for a day, it was almost dark. Yan Jiekuang sent Ding Qiunan home.
……
Time flew by, and Yan Jiekuang had been working at the rolling mill for more than a month.
Over the past month, Yan Jiekuang had been dating Ding Qiunan frequently. Sometimes, Yan Jiekuang would hang out with Ding Qiunan for a day during his break, and sometimes, he would go to the movies with Ding Qiunan after work.
Yan Jiekuang would also prepare some snacks for each date. Other than sugar-fried chestnuts, there were also melon seeds, peanuts, popcorn, and so on.
Ding Qiunan had a better impression of Yan Jiekuang.
After lunch, there was a meeting in the factory.
All the workers in the factory participated.
It was a spectacular sight to see tens of thousands of people holding a meeting together. Fortunately, the rolling mill was big enough, or else there wouldn't be a place to hold a general meeting.
"Why are you holding a factory meeting for no reason?”
"Could it be that you want to punish some bad person?”
"I heard that our factory has produced a batch of good steel, which has been of great help to the country's engineering construction.”
Yan Jiekuang was also curious as he listened to the discussions of the workers around him.
Since there was a factory meeting, there must be something important.
Yang Dawei, the factory manager, went on stage to give a speech and also solved everyone's doubts.
"Because everyone has successfully completed the important mission given by the higher-ups, in order to reward everyone, the Red Star Commune sent five pigs today, a total of 1,083 pounds.”
"For lunch tomorrow, each worker can receive a meal voucher.”
Hearing Yang Dawei's words, everyone cheered.
In the development and construction of the country, the rolling mill was also adding bricks and tiles. When it made achievements, it would also be rewarded. This time, the reward was five pigs.
The five pigs would be delivered today. They would have lunch tomorrow. The canteen needed to kill the pigs and figure out what to cook tomorrow.
Killing pigs was a problem that ordinary people could not handle.
Five pigs was not a small number, but there were tens of thousands of people in the rolling mill.
In the crowd, Qin Huairu's eyes lit up. Her three children were lacking nutrition.
" I'll get Silly Zhu's meal coupons first, then Xu Damao's, and then…" Qin Huairu calculated in her heart.
Qin Huairu was confident that she could get eight to ten meal coupons. With one meal coupon for one meat dish, that would be eight to ten meat dishes. Her three children would be able to eat their fill.
At this time, the factory meeting had also ended.
Everyone was busy collecting their meal coupons.
Qin Huairu also hurriedly went to get her meal ticket.
When they arrived at the place to collect the meal coupons, Qin Huairu cut in line again.
Qin Huairu rarely waited in line obediently and often cut in line.
In the factory, Qin Huairu's reputation was not very good.
Not long after, Qin Huairu received a meal voucher.
When Silly Zhu received a meal ticket, Qin Huiru appeared in front of Silly Zhu.
When Silly Zhu saw Qin Huiru, he felt a headache coming on.
Silly Zhu was not stupid. He knew that Qin Huairu wanted the meal ticket in his hands.
"Zhu Zi, stick, Little Dang and Huai Hua haven't eaten meat for a long time and have lost weight. This time, take it as me borrowing your meal coupons. I'll definitely return them to you next time.”Qin Huairu was shameless.
Silly Zhu could not refuse Qin Huiru, so he gave the meal ticket to Qin Huiru with a bitter smile.
As for what Qin Huairu said, he just wanted to listen to it. He didn't know when the next time would be. Even if it was the next time, Qin Huairu wouldn't give the meal voucher to Silly Zhu.
Silly Zhu also understood, but he was willing.
Being able to help the Jia family, Silly Zhu was happy.
If it wasn't for the fact that he enjoyed it, Silly Zhu wouldn't have been so happy after helping the Jia family for a few years.
Qin Huairu knew that it was the easiest to get Silly Pillar's meal coupons, but she had to pay a price to get Xu Damao, Guo Dapezi, and the rest's meal coupons.
When Qin Huairu approached Xu Damao, Xu Damao took advantage of her and successfully obtained Xu Damao's meal coupons.
……
Putting aside Qin Huairu's schemes, the atmosphere in the cafeteria was heavy as they were having a meeting.
The canteen director frowned.
"Is there no one who can kill pigs?"
There were many workers in the canteen, but none of them dared to step forward to kill the pigs.
"Director, my master, He Yuzhu, can definitely kill pigs.”Ma Hua said.
"Silly Zhu butchering a pig?" The canteen director was thinking.
Silly Zhu had the label of a labor convict, which meant that he had a stain, so he was sent to clean the toilets.
If he wanted Silly Zhu to return to the canteen, it was not up to the canteen director to decide. He needed the factory manager's approval.
After some thought, the canteen director went to look for the factory director.
After learning that no one in the canteen could kill pigs, the factory manager, Yang Dawei, looked solemn.
They would have lunch the next day. The canteen had discussed six meat dishes: pork stewed with cabbage, meatballs, pig's blood vermicelli, hot and sour pig's offal, bone soup, and stir-fried pig skin.
It would be too late if they killed the pigs tomorrow morning.
Therefore, even if he had to work overtime today, he had to kill the five pigs.
"Ask Silly Zhu to come see me." Yang Dawei said.
When Silly Zhu arrived, Yang Dawei asked,"Silly Zhu, do you know how to kill pigs?"
Silly Zhu rolled his eyes. He knew that no one in the canteen was killing pigs. Now, the factory manager was obviously counting on him.
"This is a chance to go back to the canteen." Silly Zhu immediately realized.
As for slaughtering pigs, he had killed them before. When he was young, he had helped his father. He was not 100% confident that he could kill pigs by himself, but he was 70% confident.
"Isn't it enough to kill pigs with hands? I slaughtered pigs when I was eight." Silly Zhu said.
Hearing this, Yang Dawei was overjoyed.""That's great. You'll kill all five pigs in the factory.”
"A toilet cleaner like me is going to help the canteen kill pigs? This isn't appropriate."
"You're not stupid at all! Alright, as long as you kill those five pigs, I'll transfer you back to the canteen.”Yang Dawei smiled.
"Only transferred back to the canteen? Won't you reinstate my position as the head chef of the canteen?”
"Silly Zhu, you're making things difficult for me. No matter what, you've been in prison before, so you're a prisoner. You killed a pig today, so I can transfer you back to the canteen tomorrow, but I can't reinstate you as the class monitor for now. You have to understand my difficulties.”
"Alright then!" Silly Zhu nodded.
Being able to be transferred back to the canteen, Silly Zhu was very happy.
Cleaning the toilets every day, Silly Zhu was about to get a nasal obstruction.
……
Silly Zhu came out of the factory manager's office and saw Yi Zhonghai.
Obviously, Yi Zhonghai was waiting for Silly Zhu.
"Silly Zhu, did the factory manager ask you to kill the pigs? Did he tell you to go back to the canteen?" Yi Zhonghai asked.
"The factory manager said that I killed those five pigs today and can return to the canteen tomorrow. As for the position of the class monitor of the canteen, I'm afraid it will only be restored next year.”
Hearing what Silly Zhu said, Yi Zhonghai heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's good that you can be transferred back to the canteen. After all, you have a stain.”
"As long as you go back to the canteen and work hard, you'll be able to restore your position as the class monitor sooner or later.”
"Maybe you can even be the canteen director in the future!”Yi Zhonghai laughed.
"Thank you for your kind words." Silly Zhu laughed.
"Alright, go and kill the pigs. We still have a lunch gathering tomorrow!”Yi Zhonghai patted Shazhu's shoulder.
Yi Zhonghai's meal ticket was also in Qin Huairu's hands, so he could only watch the lunch party tomorrow.
However, Yi Zhonghai was willing to give the meal voucher to Qin Huairu.
"When you go back to the canteen tomorrow, give Qin Huairu more when you get the food for lunch.”Yi Zhonghai said.
"That won't do." Silly Zhu said.
