Chapter 389: Awkward
Shen Hui was a little excited in her heart, and she was already beating in her stomach to show off to Gu Zhengqin, look, you go to see the commander and commander, won't she also see the mayor!
"What you said is, thank you, mayor, I have a treat today, you can order whatever you want to eat, what about the wine, we have ordinary sorghum here, up to fifty-two degrees, if you drink anything else, I will ask the waiter to buy it!"
She always knew that it might be someone above whose eyes were bright and saw the importance of economic development, so she would turn a blind eye, but she didn't expect this person to be the mayor, and she felt that her face was so big, and she really had to thank her, but she didn't know how she had the courage to grab a treat with the mayor just now......
Thinking of this, she was a little frustrated, and she couldn't leave a bad impression in front of the mayor, "Mayor Xie, I didn't know your identity just now, you, don't mind, I'll cook a dish for you later." ”
"Comrade Xiao Shen, don't be so polite, I didn't come out today as the mayor, but as a student of Principal Leng, if you don't mind, call me Brother Xie!" Mayor Xie said approachably, as if he had forgotten about the quarrel with Shen Hui just now.
What to do, a feeling of flattery?
"Just call Brother Xie, he is my student, your brother and Zhengqin are both my students, and it is not too much to call him Big Brother!" Principal Leng made a decision, he was very willing to see his favorite student befriend Xiao Shen.
Shen Hui is as good as a stream, "Brother Xie!"
"Sister, why don't I know when I have another brother?"
A familiar voice suddenly came from overhead, and someone gently pinched his shoulder.
She turned around and saw Shen Cong standing next to him with a wicked smile, and next to him was Gu Zhengqin, who had changed into a brand new military uniform, but why didn't he look so happy?
"How do you speak?" Shen Hui glanced at him, and then explained to Mayor Xie: "This is Shen Cong, my younger brother, this is Gu Zhengqin, my husband, who has just been promoted to the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, and is only twenty-five years old this year! This is Mayor Xie, the mayor of our H City, and also a student of Principal Leng. ”
The tone is not without pride, you are the mayor, my man is smaller, and now he is the battalion commander!
Mayor Xie nodded, stood up and shook hands again, and said two words like being young and promising, don't mind your identity.
The table was a four-seater, Shen Hui asked them to sit first, and then she moved a chair to sit side by side with Gu Zhengqin opposite Principal Leng.
"I've been promoted to battalion commander, I just happened to celebrate together, and I went to the house in the evening and asked your Aunt Xue to cook a few dishes!" Principal Leng said.
As soon as Shen Hui wanted to nod and say yes, Gu Zhengqin whispered in her ear: "Don't agree!"
Shen Hui glared back at him, lowered his voice and said, "People are doing this for your good!"
Who knew that as soon as he looked up and saw the eyes of several other people, Shen Hui couldn't help blushing, sneering, but the hand on his knee moved over and twisted it someone's thigh.
"The relationship between the young couple is good, what do you say, can you tell us about it?" Principal Leng asked with a smile.
Shen Hui just wanted to say nothing, but Gu Zhengqin said nonsense: "My daughter-in-law has promised the people in the camp to have dinner together in the evening, and she is embarrassed to refuse you...... So, I'm not too embarrassed, Uncle Leng, we won't go at night!"
The corners of Shen Hui's mouth twitched, how could she not know that she had said this!
After speaking, Gu Zhengqin looked back at his daughter-in-law with a smile, with a look of begging for praise, Shen Hui really wanted to practice her fists on this face!
"Well, we said it yesterday, they may be preparing things at this time, it's ......not good if they don't go," Shen Hui said apologetically, Gu Zhengqin respected her and was used to her, and she was willing to give him face outside.
"It's okay, it's almost the New Year anyway, and there is time to gather!" Principal Leng said indifferently, but Shen Hui always felt a touch of loss in his eyes.
Seeing that it was almost time to serve, let the others chat first, and Shen Hui went to the kitchen to cook.
Since Mayor Xie used to be a student of Principal Leng, he should be a local, Shen Hui saw that there were frozen fish, chicken, and peeled shrimp in the basin, and decided to make local three-fresh pot sticker dumplings.
Because the store also sells dumplings and pot stickers, the dumpling skins are ready-made, but the store does not have the three fresh fillings she wants, and the three fresh fillings in the store are added with vegetables, so they need to be freshly adjusted, but fortunately, there are other dishes, she only makes fifty, and one person eats ten It's almost the same.
After a while, the filling was ready, the oil in the pot was hot, she held a spoon in one hand, picked up a piece of skin with the other hand, a spoonful of filling, pinched it with two fingers, and put it in the pot, the whole process did not take a second.
Three minutes later, she put the plate upside down in the pot, flipped the pot over, and a plate of potstickers with burnt yellow potstickers came out of the oven.
"It smells so good!"
Shen Hui subconsciously looked back, Gu Zhengqin had already quickly stuffed a potsticker into his mouth.
"It's going to be served!" she glared back, helplessly, but the beauty of the whole plate had been ruined.
"That's not good, give it to me, I like to eat three fresh." Gu Zhengqin unceremoniously picked up the plate, and didn't pick up one with chopsticks and eat it.
"Okay, you can eat it! Eat all the leftovers!" Shen Hui glanced at him, seeing that you can still eat other dishes?
The potstickers were gone, and Shen Hui temporarily used the dishes made by Sister-in-law Lin for other tables, but she didn't dare to say that she made them.
After coming back, Gu Zhengqin finally returned to normal, everyone talked about some topics that could be discussed, seeing that the time was not early, Shen Hui and the three sent Principal Leng and Mayor Xie back to the camp directly.
It was almost four o'clock when she got home, and after a little rest, Shen Hui hurriedly got up to study.
At the dinner table, Principal Leng asked her how she was learning English, and some of his well-informed classmates also speculated that the college entrance examination would likely be resumed, and English would also appear as a compulsory subject.
Shen Hui naturally shook her head in shame, it was just that she had no talent, she was not diligent enough, Principal Leng randomly drew a few words and asked, but she only answered two correctly.
Shen Hui, who was deeply shocked, decided to increase the time she spent studying English.
Unconsciously, the sky darkened, Shen Hui lit the kerosene lamp, and when it was almost six o'clock, she packed her things and prepared dinner, who knew that Gu Zhengqin said: "Didn't you say that you were going to have a dinner?
"Uh......" Shen Hui hesitated, "I thought you didn't want to eat with Principal Leng, so you talked nonsense!"
"Then you still cooperate with the tacit understanding to help me speak?" A hint of banter flashed in Gu Zhengqin's eyes.
"Hmph, otherwise, expose your lies?" Shen Huibai glanced at him, "Let's be husband and wife, I'm not so stupid!"
Gu Zhengqin's face suddenly showed a bright smile, he nodded, and hummed, "I didn't lie, but I organized this matter." ”
