Chapter 107: Second Detachment

To say that everyone has drunk a lot of wine today, they are a little drunk when they leave, and their steps are messy. Thinking of what Ye Feng said, the Liu family didn't care about the hard work and didn't leave, but went to count the wine jars next to the table.

Chen Jixing is a self-disciplined person, for fear that he will be drunk and no one will take care of Ye, no matter how others persuade him, he just doesn't drink a drop of alcohol, and when the time comes, he will help Ye and leave.

As for Chen Qianshan, he naturally pretended to be drunk. There was one more very important thing for him to do tonight, and that was the cave room.

As soon as the person who was supporting him left, Chen Qianshan immediately stood up energetically, and slipped away to the backyard to take a walk, making sure that the smell of wine on his body was much lighter, and then walked excitedly towards the new house.

Ye Ermei waited for a long time, until she heard the noise in the yard gradually subsided, and then she began to panic. When I heard a few people joking with Chen Qianshan outside, I thought he was drunk, and I began to be a little disappointed in my heart, so I thought that I would help him in when those people left.

As a result, before I could get up, I heard someone come in.

Hurriedly sat upright and didn't say a word.

Chen Qianshan saw that there was a basin and water in the room, so he simply washed his face, and suddenly sobered up a lot. Although he pretended to be drunk, he did not drink less tonight. Seeing that Ye Ermei was still wearing a hijab, she walked over excitedly and picked up her hijab.

I don't know if it's the effect of the candlelight or if he is a little drunk, at this moment, he only feels that Ye Ermei is unprecedentedly beautiful, no longer the usual pure appearance, his heart is excited, and his hands begin to tremble.

Ye Ermei was not shy, and took off her clothes on her own, and then asked Chen Qianshan if she wanted to drink water.

Chen Qianshan said: "No need, lady, you see it's so late, let's sleep." As he spoke, he moved closer until both of them breathed a little messy.

Seeing that Second Sister Ye was silent, Chen Qianshan went over and hugged her in his arms, and then blew out the candle.

After counting the wine jars, Liu, who had been outside the house, saw that the candle in the house was extinguished, covered his mouth and smiled, and drove away a few half-grown children who were eavesdropping on the corner, and then went to another room to see those who were going to stay overnight today.

At the beginning, she also objected to Chen Qianshan buying a bed for everyone in the house. Now it seems that it is quite convenient. In the future, it will be enough for the young couple to have a few children.

Li Xiufang saw that everyone was scattered, so she reminded Da Niu's mother with a smile: "Auntie, are you going to make cooking cakes tomorrow morning?" Do you want to reconcile the noodles and wake up now, and then stew the bone broth? ”

When the big cow mother heard this, she knew that the child was in a hurry to behave.

Of course, they knew about these things, but they were so tired today that they thought it would be better to start resting now and get up early tomorrow morning.

Seeing that Li Xiufang and the other little daughters-in-law all looked like they wanted to do it now, Da Niu's mother said: "That's okay, just try it out for a few of you, and let's go first." To say that this old age is not enough for you young people to bear. ”

Hearing this, the few little daughters-in-law who took the initiative to stay and help didn't think it was a pestle, so they washed their hands and started to dry.

Li Xiufang poured the flour into the clay pot, sprinkled the water, and poured the noodles left before into it, and then began to make noodles.

Zhou Xiu'e scalded a few smashed bones with boiling water according to the method that Zhao had taught her before, poured the water with blood foam, and then washed the pot again, and threw in ginger and green onions to start boiling soup.

Zhang Min saw that he had nothing to do, so he began to choose vegetables.

The three of them knew in their hearts that they were now in the investigation period. If it passes, everyone will be happy. If they don't pass because they don't perform well, they will naturally be greeted by a storm when they go home.

And Zhou Xiu'e and Zhang Min both know in their hearts that the number of recruits this time is limited, and the veterans naturally have to give priority to their relatives. In this way, the remaining places will naturally be few.

Backgrounds like Li Xiufang need to be investigated, let alone the two of them. As we all know, Li Xiufang is Chen Qianshan's sister-in-law, and Ye Ermei is a concubine, and Ye and Chen Jixing are both veterans of Yaya Township Kitchen.

Therefore, if they want to enter the eyes of the big cow mothers, they have to work harder.

These tasks may seem simple, but they are actually time-consuming.

It wasn't until late at night that Li Xiufang made more than 200 cooking cakes and put them on the banana leaves in the stove room to wake up. Zhang Min also chose all the dishes in the stove room, and Zhou Xiu'e put out the open flame, leaving only the charcoal fire in the stove to continue boiling bone broth.

The other two went back to sleep, and the family also fell asleep. It was Zhang Min, and when he went back, he found that the light in the room was still on. Shocked, he quickly pushed open the door and went in, thinking that Chen Qianshu's illness should be worse again.

As a result, Chen Qianshu fell asleep well, but it was her mother-in-law Zeng, who was embroidering with an oil lamp.

This kind of work hurts the eyes the most, and the income is small, but I went to the embroidery village in the city to pick up the work and came back to do it myself, and paid it on time for silver. Even if she and the Zeng family do it as soon as they are free, they will only earn a maximum of 500 wen a month, which is not enough money for Chen Qianshu to take medicine.

Seeing Zhang Min come in, Zeng hurriedly got up and pulled her out of the room. When he arrived in the courtyard, Zeng asked, "How is it, but you have been chosen?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Min sighed and said, "Mother, I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, and I won't know until the wedding banquet is over at the earliest." Zhou Xiu'e and Li Xiufang and I all left just now, and everyone is working hard. ”

As he spoke, he brushed his hair back, and then continued: "To say that this cooking is really not as easy as outsiders think, I think that there is money to be made just by cooking." Look at Aunt Ye, she is still there to help when her belly is so big. ”

"It's not, there are many people who only see people eating meat, and can't see others staying up late. But no matter how hard you work, you have to persevere, and when you are selected, we will change the doctor for Qianshu. Only when his illness is cured can our family have hope. Zeng sighed.

"Mother, don't worry, I will do a good job, I know that Qianshu's illness is actually nothing, but it is only like this because it has been delayed." Zhang Min naturally knew that only if he was selected, and with the silver, he could change the doctor for his father-in-law, and now he didn't have the money to see a doctor, but he was just hanging his life.

In fact, Chen Qianshu's illness is not a serious illness, let alone a terminal illness, but he didn't pay attention to the cold before, and he didn't go to the doctor because he was saving, and it slowly developed to the lungs.

The doctor was also ruthless, because he was robbed of a lot of business by Heniantang, and seeing that Chen Qianshu was coughing badly, the family was anxious. finally caught one that he sent to the door, so he knocked it hard, and the medicine prescribed was bird's nest and ginseng.

These medicinal herbs are indeed good for curing diseases, but they also cost Chen Qianshu all their savings. Since the middle of June, the bird's nest is really unaffordable, so I can only grab some herbs from Dr. Mao and eat them.

Early the next morning, the Zhao family got up early in the morning, accompanied by his son Chen Qianliang, and took the silver to go to the county to buy vegetables and meat.

Although it is late October, this year's weather is abnormal, and the weather is still hot during the day, like vegetables or something, but it is wilting, but it hardly affects the taste.

If you smear it with salt, it can be preserved, but the types of dishes you can cook are very limited.

Seeing this, Li Xiufang volunteered to follow, saying that she wanted to see how the Zhao family bargained. But she didn't need to go at all, because she couldn't learn anything on this trip. Because, the Zhao family just went to the horse butcher's stall to buy meat, they are all regular customers, and they don't even need to talk about the price, it is directly the internal price.

Zhou Xiu'e and Zhang Min did not follow, but went to the back kitchen and followed a few people to learn how to make noodles, especially with seasonings.

The two of them are also smart, and when they saw that it was the same noodles, the people in the duck and duck village chef made it much more delicious as soon as they got it, and they knew in their hearts what kind of seasoning was added.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Da Niu's mother asked Zhou Xiu'e to go out with the cooking cakes and last night's leftovers, and she rolled up her sleeves to prepare the next noodles.

As a result, he saw that the big bone broth in the pot was boiled in vain, and Zhang Min also tore off the meat on the bones, and put some in each bowl. The meat is served with freshly scalded lettuce leaves, which is pleasing to the eye.

"You kid, how early and late do you get up? How is your Thousand Trees doing now? Da Niu's mother asked distressedly. This is the most time-consuming to make bone broth, and I don't know what time she will come.

Hearing this, Zhang Min hurriedly replied: "Auntie, I just came here for a while. I saw that it was a pity that the flesh on this bone was lost, so I thought of shaving it off with a knife. You also know my family's thousand trees, just hanging like that, hey, it's not bad, and it's not getting better. ”

Da Niu's mother said: "Everyone has a difficulty to overcome, if you want to say that your family used to live quite well, who knew it would be like this." Take a break after breakfast and don't burn yourself out. ”

At the end, he whispered again: "You have done this, my aunt is optimistic about you, and I will definitely help you say a few good words when the time comes." ”

Da Niu's mother's last sentence made Zhang Min overjoyed, if she really helped her say a few words at that time, then there would be almost no problem.

She knows in her heart that old employees have the right to recommend.

I have to say that Zhang Min's idea is indeed very good, the meat is originally from the muscles and bones, and it is more delicious than other parts of the meat. After a night of boiling, the rotten melts in the mouth.

Served with fresh lettuce leaves and a soup of yesterday's leftovers, this morning's noodles are full of praise.

However, it is not enough to cook cakes per person, and in the end, many people come to ask if there are too many noodles.

Lunch and dinner are naturally in order, still the same taste, the same amount of filling. And with the addition of Ye Ermei, it was even smoother, very smooth.

By the time everyone hiccuped and thanked Liu, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark.

It's been a busy time again, cleaning, washing, and it's not until ten o'clock that it's finished. Seeing everyone away, Chen Qianshan and Ye Ermei closed the door and went into the house to rest.

Young people always don't have enough to eat, and Chen Qianshan is no exception. Eating the marrow and knowing the taste, they are newly married, and that night, the two naturally have another joy.

The next day, both of them got up late.

Ye is careful, knowing that the two are newly married, they will inevitably be tired, so they naturally have no energy to cook and eat. Therefore, after the two of them got up, Qianyan came over and asked them to go to breakfast, which made the two of them blush for a while.

After breakfast, after a while, the people from the duck and duck village chef came.

Although Chen Jixing's house is in a mess now, and the new house has not yet been built, everyone is used to holding meetings here.

As a result, whether it was Da Niu's mother or Zhao's family, they were all joking when they saw Ye Ermei. The man naturally wouldn't let go of Chen Qianshan, and it was a joke to pull it, and for a while, the whole courtyard was very lively.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Da Niu's mother said: "Since everyone is here, let's start, or as before, each recommend one person, and everyone will express their opinions." This time, we need a total of six people, including those who can chop firewood, stir-fry, and make shou noodles. Of course, it's best that the person knows everything. By the way, we said it last time, but the second uncle of Qianyan has been decided. ”

Duck Duck Township Kitchen has been established for almost a year, and Da Niu Ma has won unanimous praise from everyone with her fair and decent style, cool temperament and ruthless bargaining. Now, he seems to be the spokesperson of the duck duck village kitchen.

Of course, there is another point, that is, the reputation of Da Niu Ma in the village. Because of her, those who envy, envy and hate people in the village are just talking sour things, but they don't dare to take any real action.

They're afraid. provoked the big cow mother, the consequences are really ...... It is said that someone once did not believe in evil and scolded Da Niu Ma behind his back, but as a result, Da Niu Ma did not make a move at all.

Just when he was triumphant and thought that Da Niu's mother was nothing more than that, her two babies were beaten by the children in the village, with a blue nose and swollen face, almost like a pig's head.

Just when she was so angry that she wanted to find a theory with Da Niu's mother, her two babies took her hand and began to beg: "Mother, don't go." People said that if you talk nonsense again, you will have to dismantle your son's leg next time. ”

If you want to say this, Da Niu Ma really doesn't know, and she hasn't cared about it. As for the two babies being beaten, it was also the big cow who couldn't see the man talking nonsense. Since you can't beat the adults, let's have a contest between children.

This is something that adults can't handle.

If you really want to intervene strongly, maybe these two children can only be isolated by everyone. Children are very good, and the last thing they like is a child who makes a small report.

The Zhu family had already come and sat on the side without saying a word.

As soon as she heard Da Niu's mother say that only six people were needed this time, she felt a little unhappy. The last time I asked her family to help, I made it clear, once a newcomer is recruited, Chen Jiwang is the first choice.

Then, I heard Da Niu's mother say that her own mouth was predetermined, and I put down a stone in my heart. No wonder everyone says that she is fair, but now that I look at it, it's not, anyway, I am convinced by her.

Seeing Chen Qianshan and Ye Ermei sitting together and whispering, Zhao said: "You see, these two people are really inseparable for a moment, or let's go to our house, so as not to get in the way here." ”

Hearing this, Chen Qianshan hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't laugh at us, we are discussing business." ”

"Yo, no one here is discussing business, and I haven't seen anyone so close to each other like the two of you." Da Niu Ma continued.

She had a loud voice and spoke in a low voice, and when she described it, everyone laughed.

This time, Chen Qianshan, who is known as a master of changing topics, also failed.

Second Sister Ye hurriedly said: "My aunt just makes fun of people." That's the case, I discussed it with Qianshan, and we chose my sister-in-law. "Second Sister Ye's sister-in-law, that is, Li Xiufang, everyone naturally knows.

Not to mention this level of relationship, even if it is based on personal ability alone, everyone has seen it.

Seeing that it was time to get down to business, Da Niu's mother stopped laughing and said, "Okay, I wrote it down, and the others also said it, and selected one person to come out for everyone to comment." There were so many people who helped yesterday, there must be one of you who liked it. If not, it is okay to elect your own family members. ”

The Ye family wanted to elect Ye Sanmei, but unfortunately he couldn't do it, so he had to give up after thinking about it. Her mother's family really didn't have a suitable candidate, and this time, this opportunity was going to be wasted.

What a pity.

Zhu thought for a while and said, "I want to elect the Thousand Tree Lady." Everyone also saw it yesterday, she is a diligent person, she leaves late at night and comes early in the morning. If you want to say that the mind is also clever, the shaved meat on the bones is indeed delicious, everyone saw it yesterday, and there are many people who want to add bowls to eat noodles. ”

Zhu originally wanted to recommend her sister-in-law, but this time her sister-in-law happened to be sick, and it was said that she would have to rest in bed for a month or two, so she had no chance to come over to help. In this case, it is better to choose Zhang Min.

She liked that child very much, as if she had been. And Qianshu is sick again, and it is said that he has to eat bird's nest and ginseng at every turn. Even if it's the village chief's family, it's impossible to eat it for a long time. If Zhang Min can be selected, it will be better than now.

It is said that now the people in the village are walking around when they see her family, and they are really afraid of being borrowed by Zeng's money.

Hearing Zhu say this, Da Niu's mother sighed: "The eldest sister is right. I ordered the noodles yesterday morning, and I knew that I had gone early, but the boy had already gone and was there with a knife to shave. The dish was also hot, the heat was well controlled, and I asked a few words, and he was also a good cook. I'm not showing favoritism, I'm optimistic about this child. I'll choose her too. ”

Da Niu's mother has no concubines, because Chen Jiwan is an only child. Several sisters-in-law marry far away, and it is inconvenient to go back and forth. As for her sisters-in-law, she would not recommend any of them.

When she was at home, she was not less angry with them. Anyway, she is not a virgin, and she can't do anything to repay her grievances with virtue.

In this way, before the voting began, two people voted for Zhang Min.

It seems that personal ability and character are really important, Ye Feng, who was pruning flowers and trees on the side, thought in his heart, the eyes of the masses were really bright.

Everyone talked for a while, and in the end, in addition to Ye, who was waiting to give birth, plus Zhou Xiu'e, there was still one person missing.

Although there are many people who have signed up, these are the only five people that everyone is willing to accept. For a while, everyone began to think about it again.

Just when everyone was still thinking, Chen Jixing suddenly stammered: "Among these five people, it seems that no one can get up." Although my second brother knows a little, he always has to chop wood, and the stove he built is really not as good as Qianshan. In my opinion, we need to find another one who can take a stove, and another who can catch a car. ”

Zhu listened to Chen Jixing's all about her family's shortcomings, and he felt a little unhappy. But what they say is also true. Like Chen Qianming, several boys have learned to drive cars, but Chen Jiwang just can't learn.

He had no problem riding in the ox-cart, but as soon as he sat down in front and picked up the whip, he trembled with fear, his hands became weak, and his feet did not obey him.

The Zhu family can be regarded as understanding now, you know the same skill, that is the most basic, and a few more things for a person is the king. For example, a woman who can chop vegetables is nothing, and it is better to be able to stir-fry, plate, and make noodles.

If there are one or two specialty dishes, it is naturally better.

As for men, chopping wood and building stoves is nothing at all, after all, this is manual work. Like chopping wood, basically a man will. If only Chen Jiwang could catch the car. Zhu is afraid that Chen Jiwang's skills are single, and he may be replaced when he meets an all-rounder.

Zhao muttered, "We forgot about this. If you don't know how to catch a car, it will definitely be inconvenient to cook at that time. If we're not busy, we can do a favor or something, but if everyone is busy, it's troublesome. In this group, except for the second uncle of Qianyan, they are all women, and it seems that they have to find a man who can drive a car. ”

Chen Jixing was waiting for this sentence, and as soon as Zhao finished speaking, he immediately answered: "What do you think of my eldest brother?" He can drive a car, build a stove, and do things very seriously. ”

Ye immediately understood that Chen Jixing was afraid that Huang would make trouble. Just a few days ago, the news that the Yaya Township Kitchen was going to recruit people spread, and Huang and Chen Jida came to the door and expressed their willingness to join the Township Chef.

Naturally, Huang didn't come, she still has self-knowledge.

Hearing this, Ye Shi was puzzled: "Big brother, it's not that I don't agree, I've quit now, and I can't count what I can say." We'll do our best when the time comes. ”

As a result, the Huang family did not give up, and said a lot of flesh and blood family words, but wanted to say that if Chen Jida was not elected, she would scold Chen Jixing every day. said that Chen Jixing was developed, and he built a house and bought land, and he didn't know how to help his eldest brother.

This made the Ye family angry, and later Chen Jida dragged the Huang family to the problem.

Speaking of which, this is the first time Chen Jixing has recommended candidates, and with the Zhu family, Ye Ermei, and Chen Qianshan all there, everyone feels that it is difficult to answer. If Chen Jixing recommended the Huang family, they would definitely not give face, so they refused directly.

However, Chen Jixing's recommendation was Chen Jiwang.

If you want to talk about Chen Jiwang, everyone naturally understands it, his character is indeed good, and everyone lives in the same village, so it is naturally very clear. However, who let him marry Huang?

A Huang is simply rat poop, which can spoil a pot of soup. Everyone didn't want to reject Chen Jiwang, but they were afraid that the Huang family would come in and make trouble through this relationship.

Seeing this, Ye said: "You don't have to be embarrassed, according to me, you all know my sister-in-law, but my eldest brother is a good one." In this way, my eldest brother will join in the same way as my second brother before, call him when he is busy, and don't call him when he is not busy. Guys, is this okay? ”

I have to say that Ye's words are very pertinent, and even Chen Jixing thinks it is good. Anyway, he must be busy during the Chinese New Year, and Chen Jiwang naturally has many opportunities.

As for normal times, everyone is just making some hard-earned money, so it doesn't matter if they don't join. And now Chen Jida has officially joined, which means that when the work in the field is busy, it basically depends on the eldest brother alone.

This arrangement is just right, making money and working in the field can be taken into account, and the most important thing is that it can also block Huang's mouth.

After thinking about it, Ye Shi said again: "If there is anything, everyone can discuss it directly, and you don't have to worry about our face." Everyone works hard to cook just to earn money to subsidize the family, but they can't be disturbed. ”

Although they didn't say it explicitly, the Ye family's words couldn't be clearer, if the Huang family dared to make trouble, they didn't have to accept it.

Because Ye was still pregnant and waiting to give birth, everyone elected Zhang Min's mother-in-law, Zeng, to help temporarily like Chen Jiwang, and wanted to help her family.

After discussing for a while, the candidates for the second group of Yaya Township Chef were completely decided, just waiting for the business to come to the door.

Zhao even suggested that the selected people should be notified in a while, first, to make them happy, and secondly, to prepare them in advance, for example, one should buy kitchen utensils, who is responsible for the accounts, and how to distribute the money must always be clear first...... When you think about it this way, there are actually a lot of things.

And only when these things are straightened out, can cooking be carried out normally.

If it was a feeling that it was not about itself before, but now, everyone understands that although it is not from the same group, this name is still Duck Duck Country Chef.

Whichever group doesn't do a good job will be implicated. And being implicated means that there is no money to be made.

No one will agree to this.
