Time flies when I get busy, and it's already time to eat in a blink of an eye.

Tong Jiangkun, Li Yajuan, Wang Yanqiu and other colleagues packed up their things one after another, took off their red vests, and went to work with their satchels on their backs.

Seeing that Li Yajuan and Han Xiaowu were left in the office area, Zhang Lili greeted: "Xiaowu, the secretary knows how to say beautiful things, she doesn't give you the wind, I will give you the wind, I will treat you at noon today." Dongmei, don't go back, come with us to eat hot pot!"

Han Xiaowu hurriedly shook his hand: "Director, don't be so polite." ”

"Director, you go to eat with Xiaowu, I'll go home, I have everything at home. ”

Zhang Lili spoke and acted in a hurry, and grabbed Xu Dongmei's arm: "What are you going to do when you go back?" ”

"Director, if that's not the case, let me invite me at noon. ”

"How can there be any reason for you to pay for it? Besides, I have a coupon, and if I don't eat it, it will expire!"

"Okay, then I'll be respectful rather than obey. Han Xiaowu didn't want people to think that he was twisting, so he agreed. At the same time, make up your mind to invite them to have a meal when everyone is free.

The three of them took the elevator downstairs and walked twenty or thirty meters along the pedestrian street to a hot pot restaurant.

Zhang Lili took out her mobile phone from her bag, flipped out the link to bargaining, walked in and asked, "Beauty, can this package be used at noon?"

"Yes, how many of them are there?" the waiter took the phone and looked at it, and then handed it back to her.

"Three. ”

"Inside, please, sit at tables six and eight casually. ”

"What about this?" Zhang Lili held up her phone again.

The waiter replied with a smile while taking the three of them inside: "This is not in a hurry, I will help you tell the bar, first serve the bottom of the pot and the dishes of the package, if it is not enough, you use your mobile phone to scan the QR code on the table to add vegetables, and then check the package coupon together when you pay the bill." ”

"Okay, thanks. ”

The hot pot is not a stir-fry, as soon as the three of them sat down and took out a paper towel to wipe the table, the waiter served the bottom of the pot.

Xu Dongmei obviously didn't come for the first time, so she got up and walked to the left-hand side: "Director, Xiaowu, the small material is inside, you have to adjust it yourself." There are also free cold dishes, fruits and white fungus soup over there, so I'll go pick up some side dishes and fruits first. ”

"Xiaowu, go ahead, get some more side dishes. ”

"Director, I'm not in a hurry, you go first, I'll help you look at the bag. ”

"Okay, then you drink some water first. ”

As he spoke, the waiter brought the menu and crossed out the names of the dishes with a ballpoint pen as he watched the waiter serve them one after another.

A little fat sheep, an air-freight goose intestine, a black chicken roll, a duck gizzard, plus two vegetarian dishes, including the bottom of the pot, the original price is 183 yuan, and after bargaining, it is only 39.9 yuan!

At this time, Zhang Lili came over with two small cold dishes of shredded tofu and shredded kelp: "Xiaowu, do you see if it's enough?

Frankly speaking, the little fat sheep on the table is not only very small, but also does not look good. At a glance, you can see that it is not freshly cut, but it has been cut and frozen into rolls, and when there are guests who order, they count the dishes that are served on the plate. If you only talk about eating, Han Xiaowu likes to eat freshly cut beef, hairy belly and yellow throat, but today is a treat, how can he be embarrassed to add vegetables, and hurriedly got up and said: "Enough, enough, there are three of us, and we can't eat waste if we order too much." ”

"Then let's eat first, and then order if we don't have enough. ”

......

After the mutton is put into the pot, one person clips two chopsticks and it is gone, and the black chicken roll is almost the same as mutton.

As for the duck intestines, Han Xiaowu didn't know whether it was airlifted or not, but he only knew that there was only a thin layer of it, and there was ice underneath. The portion of duck gizzard is not satisfactory, and at least one person is guaranteed to eat one.

In Xu Dongmei's opinion, today's lunch is already very luxurious. Like Han Xiaowu, she was embarrassed to order again, but went left and right to get small cold vegetables to fill her stomach, and even helped to bring three small bowls of white fungus soup.

Although the amount of dishes is not much, and the bottom of the pot in this restaurant is not very authentic, Han Xiaowu eats it with relish, and feels that it is better than the hot pot he has eaten before.

The bottom of the pot and the shabu-shabu are in the bargaining package, and there is no need to pay for it, but the small ingredients and cutlery have to be paid separately.

Zhang Lili went to the bar to pay the bill, and walked out of the hot pot restaurant with Han Xiaowu and Xu Dongmei, who were full of food and drink, and muttered: "The napkin still needs money, I didn't need his napkin if I knew it!"

Han Xiaowu couldn't help but smile and comforted her: "Director, you are only fooled once, and we will know next time we come." ”

Xu Dongmei couldn't help but echo: "Director, next time I invite, I also cut the price, and there are also coupons." ”

"You, keep it and bring the children to eat. The hot pot is delicious once in a while, but it is not delicious when it comes. Zhang Lili took out the electric car key from her bag and asked while walking out of the pedestrian street: "I went to work at two o'clock, and it's only twelve o'clock now." Xiaowu, are you going upstairs or going back and resting for a while?"

"I'll go upstairs, I'm new to the city, I don't know a lot of things, I want to be familiar with it again. ”

"Okay, then you can go up. The activity over there in Wangchi is at half past three in the afternoon, and you will go over with Yajuan and Yanqiu at that time. Dongmei, what about you?"

"When I go home, the laundry I did in the morning is still in the washing machine, and I have to go back and take it out and dry it. ”

"All right, let's go back to our respective homes. ”

"Thank you, Director. ”

"What's the gracious, what a big deal!"

Seeing off the director and Xu Dongmei, Han Xiaowu was very moved.

After all, their wages are not high, and they live a budget-conscious life. For them, today's hot pot meal is similar to eating a big meal. I was secretly thinking that I might not be able to repay this favor if I asked for a reply, and suddenly found that Ganlan Ramen was right in front of me.

The owner of the ramen shop and his family are all targets of the united front, and there is only one customer in the store at this time, Han Xiaowu walked into the store on a whim, looked at the middle-aged man sitting at the bar and playing with his mobile phone and asked, "Hello, is the boss there?"

"I'm just, eat noodles, big bowl or small bowl? The menu is on the wall, and I want to eat something else to see the menu. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm not here for dinner. ”

"What's the matter?"

Han Xiaowu smiled and asked, "Boss, you are Ma Delu, right?"

The boss was stunned, speaking Mandarin with a thick northwest accent, and looked at him puzzled: "Yes, I am Ma Delu, how do you know?"

"Boss Ma, I am from the community, my surname is Han, my name is Han Xiaowu, and I am in charge of the United Front and the Youth League Committee. Our director asked me to visit you and see if you have any problems that need to be solved. ”

The community is upstairs, Ma Delu usually deals with the community, thinking that your community can manage everything, but in fact he can't manage anything, so he simply put him in the army: "Is it difficult to do business badly?"

"I'm sorry, business isn't good...... I...... I really can't help, even if I want to take care of your business, I can't eat ramen every day. ”

"The rent is too high, and the hard-earned money I get up early every day is all for the landlord, and I am all working for the landlord, can you help me talk to the landlord?"

"I can't help with the rent. ”

"Then there's nothing to say, I'm just going to have these two difficulties. ”

Han Xiaowu didn't feel that the ethnic minority compatriot in front of him who had left his hometown to open a ramen shop in Anhai was difficult, but felt that he was quite humorous, and took out his mobile phone to open the lock screen: "Boss Ma, I said that it is a difficulty other than these two problems, it seems that you have no other difficulties for the time being." Otherwise, let's add a WeChat first, and if something else happens in the future, you can send me WeChat. ”

Boss Ma may have felt that Han Xiaowu's arrival was a bit redundant, and he was reluctant to pick up his mobile phone and add WeChat.

Han Xiaowu didn't want to affect his business, and was about to say goodbye when a young woman wearing a black headscarf lifted the curtain and walked out of the kitchen.

"Boss Ma, who is this?"

"My cousin, I just came here the day before yesterday, what's wrong?"

"Where do you stay?"

Boss Ma said impatiently: "Live with us, if you don't live with us, where else can she live!"

Han Xiaowu thought to himself that the head of the building in the community he rented must not know, otherwise he would have reported it in the morning. Thinking about it again, this is not only a problem involving another ethnic minority compatriot and an additional united front object in the community, but also involves the management of the foreign population, so he subconsciously glanced at his cousin and reminded: "Boss Ma, you can't help but apply for a residence permit when your relatives come." When the afternoon is not busy, can you take some time to ask your cousin to bring her ID and go upstairs to register? ”

"Got it, I'll take her there later. ”

"We go to work at two o'clock, and the full-time gridder comes at two o'clock. ”

"Isn't it just looking for Xiao Xu, I know. ”

"Do you know Xu Simin?"

"Let's put it this way, except for you, I know everyone in the community! Did you just go to the hot pot opposite with Director Zhang and Xiao Xu? I can see it clearly. ”

"It's good to know, then I'll trouble you. ”

Walking out of the ramen shop, Han Xiaowu thought to himself that Boss Ma must be laughing at him for being a stunned young man. However, Han Xiaowu not only didn't care, but was also very happy. Because he was not laughed at in vain, at least one foreigner was found to have not applied for a residence permit. As the grid leader, I have to report ten pieces of information a month, and now I have one, and then I only need to report nine more pieces to complete the task.
