Manager Yang frowned and dispersed the crowd. He asked Director Lin,"What's going on? What are you doing? Everyone is here to watch the show."
Deputy Factory Manager Liu immediately explained,""Our logistics department is trying to make bread. If we succeed, we can add a rich and delicious food to our employees.”
Secretary Yang and Factory Manager Yang widened their eyes."You can make your own bread? This is great news!"
At this time, the bread had almost been baked. He Yuzhu put on thick cotton gloves, afraid that it would be scalded. He asked Master Yang to stand at the side with a large tray to hold it. When he opened the oven door, a strong aroma of bread rushed out. Now, even the workshop in front could smell it.
He Yuzhu waited for the heat to dissipate for a while before reaching out to pull out the tray. Master Yang immediately used a tray to catch it and placed it on the temporary chopping board at the side. He Yuzhu went to pull the second layer of the grill, then the third layer. More than forty pieces of shiny bread were placed on the temporary chopping board, and the fragrance was overflowing.
He Yuzhu explained," This is a small oven for experiments. If it's successful, we can make a big oven for the factory employees."”
After the bread cooled down a little, He Yuzhu distributed the bread to the leaders to taste. He handed a piece to Master Yang and took a piece for himself to taste. Chewing on the sweet bread, everyone nodded in praise.
" Your canteen is able to give full play to its subjective initiative and proactively do a good job in logistics support," Director Yang praised." It's worth learning from all units."”
He Yuzhu also chimed in with an official tone." At this time, Deputy Factory Manager Liu gave his full support, and Director Lin personally gave guidance. It was only with the joint efforts of the infrastructure department and the canteen staff that we were able to achieve success.”
"I'm just afraid that the aroma will spoil the food if the employees eat too much," said Deputy Factory Manager Liu jokingly.”
Everyone burst into laughter. Secretary Yang pointed at Deputy Factory Manager Liu and said,"Old Liu, you're always so out of tune. However, if he were to receive the leaders and sister departments in the future, this bread would really be able to intimidate them.”
Factory Manager Yang nodded and smiled." Yes. In the future, we'll serve bread first for the reception meal. I reckon we can save one less dish."”
Everyone laughed again. After the leaders left, He Yuzhu baked two more batches of bread and gave a few to Deputy Factory Manager Liu and Director Lin. Two for each person in the small canteen. The rest was put into the system backpack when no one was paying attention.
When he got home, He Yuzhu asked He Yushui to help the deaf old lady over for dinner. He simply fried a potato shred, made some egg soup, took out a box of Beijing sauce shredded pork from the system backpack, and took out a lid to pack about ten bread.
As soon as He Yushui helped the Deaf Old Lady into the house, she saw a curtain on the table with a pile of golden bread on it. The rich fragrance assailed her nose. She shouted,"Wow, bread, old lady. It's bread.”
The Deaf Old Lady replied cheerfully,""Yes, bread. What fragrant bread.”
At this moment, Yan Bugui also walked over. He was basically freeloading at He Yuzhu's house for dinner. When he saw that the main course of dinner was bread, he couldn't help but rub his hands together and swallow his saliva. He said,"This is too extravagant. Even the landlord wouldn't dare to eat bread as a staple food.”
He Yuzhu explained," This is the test product that our canteen made today. The cost of the materials is not high. We haven't even made the steamed buns yet. We're just bringing it back for everyone to try."”
The Deaf Old Lady tapped Yan Bugui lightly with her walking stick and said,""What nonsense are you talking about? You dare to say anything. I don't know what will happen if others hear you.”
"Haha, I lost my composure for a moment, I lost my composure for a moment," Yan Bugui said embarrassedly.”
The little girl ran to the table and took a deep breath of the fragrance. She said with an intoxicated expression,"Brother, I want to eat five."
He Yuzhu first helped the deaf old lady to sit on a chair and said,"As long as you can eat it, I'll give you ten.”
He Yushui grabbed a loaf of bread and was about to stuff it into her mouth when she heard that. She widened her eyes and asked,"Really? Brother, you still have more? Then I want to eat it tomorrow morning too!"
He Yuzhu smiled and said," Sure, we'll have bread for breakfast tomorrow too. I'm afraid you'll get tired of it in two days."”
Chewing on the bread in her mouth, the little girl mumbled,""How can I get tired of it? This is bread. In movies, foreigners eat this. It's really delicious.”
Hearing He Yuzhu say enough, Yan Bugui was also anxious. He grabbed a piece of bread in one hand and the chopsticks in the other hand were already reaching for the shredded meat in Jing sauce.
The Deaf Old Lady was also slowly tearing the bread with her hand and eating it, looking at the siblings with a smile. He Yuzhu also grabbed the bread and took a bite. He later baked two batches of bread, one batch of sweet buttered bread and one batch of salty onion bread.
The staff of the small canteen had tasted these two types of bread before. Everyone still liked the sweet buttered bread. In an era where supplies were scarce, everyone liked sweets. As for He Yuzhu, who came from the later generation, he still liked salty bread.
The next day, He Yushui woke up early without waiting for her brother to wake her up. After washing up, she accompanied the Deaf Old Lady to have breakfast. She wrapped two pieces of bread and put them in her bag before rushing to school.
She arrived at school too early, and there weren't many students there yet. He Yushui didn't admit that she was showing off. She just wanted to share the food with her good friends.
As soon as Yu Haitang entered the classroom, before she could put down her bag, He Yushui pulled her to a corner outside the classroom and took out a piece of bread." Haitang, what do you think this is?"
Yu Haitang's eyes widened in surprise." Bread? I've seen it in movies. All foreigners eat this."”
He Yu handed her the bread and said,"This bread is for you."”
Yu Haitang took the bread and smelled the fragrance of the bread. She swallowed her saliva and said hesitantly,""I'll just try a small piece. It's such a rare thing.”
" You're welcome," He Yushui said generously." This is for you. My brother made it himself. It's delicious. I ate four last night and two this morning."”
Yu Haitang took the bread in front of her and took a deep breath of the fragrance. Her face was intoxicated, but she still wrapped the bread and put it in her bag. She said gratefully,"Yushui, you're really my good friend. You always think of me when there's something good. Thank you. I'll bring it back to eat with my family.”
He Yushui hesitated for a moment, but she still didn't take out the remaining bread. She still had a good friend, Hu Ya.
However, the little girl still said on the surface,"That's nothing. Aren't we good friends and sisters?"”
At noon, Yu Haitang returned home. Seeing that her parents, sister, and brother were all at home, she called out excitedly,""Look what I brought back.”
"Thump thump, look!" As she spoke, she took out the bread from her bag.
Yu Haitang's younger brother, Yu Minghui, was three years younger than Yu Haitang. He jumped down from the stool and shouted,""Bread, it's bread. I've seen it in movies.”
Yu Haitang's father was also surprised."Haitang, where did you get this? You can't just take other people's things.”
Yu Haitang rolled her eyes at her father."This is from my classmate, He Yushui. Sister knows him. His brother made this himself.”
Seeing her father looking at her, Yu Li nodded and said,"Yes, I know her classmate, He Yushui. I even ate at his house last time. His brother is the deputy director of the canteen of the Red Star Rolling Mill and also the chef of their factory.”
"They're so well-off, why would they give you a whole loaf of bread?" Mr. Yu was still a little suspicious.”
"We can't give your classmate anything good. We can't accept such precious things."”
" That's nothing," Yu Haitang said nonchalantly." She and I are best friends, like sisters. She was young, so I was the one who protected her when she first joined our class."
Her family was very well-off. Her brother earned money from publishing articles and helping people hold wedding banquets. He could earn more than 100 yuan a month. She and her brother were the only ones in the family. They could eat meat every day.”
Yu Minghui sucked his saliva and said,"Second Sister, can you give me a taste? Just a little."
Yu Haitang divided the bread into five pieces and gave each person a piece. As she bit the small piece of bread in her hand, she said,"I couldn't bear to eat it at school, so I wanted to bring it back for you to try.”
After finishing the bread in his hand, Yu Minghui saw that Yu Haitang was still eating in small bites. He was sensible enough not to ask for it, but said,""Second Sister, why don't you marry your classmate's brother? Then you can eat bread every day.”
Yu Haitang was stunned for a moment, and her face turned red. She patted her underling and said,""What nonsense are you talking about? I gave you delicious food and you're still talking nonsense. Do you want to be beaten up?”
Yu Li was eating her bread at the side. When she heard this, her eyes blinked, and her heart seemed to be touched.
The Yu family's parents were both workers. Logically speaking, the income of a dual-worker family was not low. The combined salary of the two people was 70 to 80 yuan, but they had to support the elderly on both sides. Yu Li's grandfather only had one son. Her grandfather fell seriously ill before the New Year and spent several hundred yuan. The Yu family was still carrying foreign debts.
The living conditions of the Yu family were not very bad, but they were not very good either. Yu Li still wanted to find a temporary job after graduating from junior high school this year so that her parents could relax a little.
Mrs. Yu handed a small bite of bread to her youngest son and patted him.""Don't talk nonsense. Let others hear how your sister is behaving. Here, I'll just have a taste. This is for you.”
Yu Minghui happily took the small piece of bread from his mother and said happily,"Thank you, Mom."
