Chapter 90: Combing the Daughter-in-law's Hair
Soon, all the officers and wives who heard about this came downstairs to inquire about the situation.
Song Enli originally wanted to forget it, there was no need to mobilize the people for such a thing.
But what seems trivial to her is a serious good thing in the eyes of others, and besides, this is the army, where can the army allow such a person to exist!
Several military wives who had just come back from work told them about the situation they had encountered before, "I was embarrassed to say it, but last month, our baby and his uncle brought a few pieces of fried cakes, and I put them downstairs in the kitchen and forgot about them, but I thought about it in the middle of the night and came down to find it." ”
"And our family, a few days ago I forgot to put away the oil jar when I was cooking, and it ended up being half smaller, I told our family, and he scolded me for being troublesome." Another military sister-in-law is estimated to be still worried about this, and by the way, she punched her man, causing everyone to laugh.
……
One after another, people said.
Song Enli originally thought that this happened to her alone, but she didn't want so many people to have the same experience as her, and for a while she felt like she was living in a den of thieves.
Another officer also felt the same way, "The damn stole it on his own head, if you don't find out, everyone won't be able to sleep well in the future!" ”
Chen Damei suggested that everyone register the time of their return and what they did with her, so as to eliminate suspicion.
No one objected.
She couldn't read, so she asked Song Enli to help record it.
Except for the twelve military wives who went to buy sea fish and didn't come back, there are also the daughters-in-law of the junior officers in the dormitory building, all of whom have jobs, and usually the two of them eat in the canteen of the unit, so they can be excluded, and it is impossible for the officers to take these things.
Then the remaining suspicious ones in the building are actually a few children and Zheng Yanli.
Zheng Yanli didn't go to buy sea fish because all the money in the family was exchanged for cigarettes and alcohol by Gao Guoqing, and she was dissatisfiedly hugging her children in the crowd to watch the excitement, by the way, she said two cool words, "If we carry forward the hardships and simplicity of the working people to the end like our family, where will there be so many messy things." ”
The implication is almost deserved.
"So you mean the one who steals is right? Comrade Zheng Yanli, what kind of ideological consciousness are you? Song Enli asked her rhetorically.
Zheng Yanli was speechless for a while, "I, I didn't mean that." ”
"If you don't mean that, shut up, there is Sister Chen, the administrator, who is in charge here, and you don't need to dictate."
Song Enli tinkered with the registration form and handed it to Chen Damei, and was about to go upstairs to get some rice to cook again, when Xiao Heping and Sheng Li came in from outside with two lunch boxes.
"What's the matter, it's been a lot of excitement in this courtyard lately." Sheng Li shouldered his military hat and leaned over to talk to Chen Damei's husband Li Fushun.
Song Enli said to Xiao Heping embarrassedly: "The rice was stolen, I haven't cooked yet, have you cooked?" Let's eat it yourself. ”
"It's okay, I'll leave it to Sister Chen here, you go upstairs and eat first." Xiao Heping couldn't help but want to rub her little brain when he saw her soft appearance.
He was still angry in the morning, and now he was like no one else, and his daughter-in-law was really broad-minded.
He handed over both lunch boxes.
Song Enli whispered a few words to Chen Damei and went upstairs with a lunch box.
"Sister Chen told me that Zheng Yanli is eyeing her now, and she is squatting at the door of their house early in the morning." Song Enli looked back, and Zheng Yanli really didn't follow.
Xiao Heping opened the door and went in, helped her put the lunch box on the table and opened it, and made her a cup of milk powder, "That's right." ”
It was not in vain that he specially asked the political commissar to talk about it.
"Did you say that the one who stole the rice and the one who stole our honeycomb coal?"
"You think we're a thief?" Xiao Heping pressed her to the chair, and finally touched her brain as he wished, rubbed it, felt that it felt good, and couldn't help but rub it again, "Eat first, someone will solve the matter anyway, you don't have to worry about it." ”
Song Enli avoided his hand unhappily, "Don't mess it up, mess up my hairstyle." ”
"I'll comb it for you when you get back."
"As long as you still comb your hair, don't make me bald when the time comes."
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Heping had already untied the leather band wrapped around her hair, and there was no way to do it if her hair was good, and her braids spread out instantly.
"Xiao Heping, you're annoyed." Song Enli knocked on the back of his hand with chopsticks, wrapped a ponytail and continued to eat, Xiao Heping dismantled her again, and stood behind her to help her braid her hair.
Today's dishes are okay, cornmeal cake, fried meat with beans and cabbage, the meat is not cut to the point that it is invisible.
Although the standard of the regimental canteen per person per day is four cents and nine, because the troops raise their own pigs and grow vegetables and grain, they can provide a large part of the supplies, so the food is much better than outside, except for the fact that they can see a little meat every three or five times, and they will also make a braised pork and tooth sacrifice once a month, so in fact, many officers will go to the canteen at noon to get a meal and go home to eat with their families.
Except for a very small number of single and high-spirited comrades like Gao Guoqing.
The army canteen eats subsidies, and it is not like the factory canteen, and the food relationship is transferred to the grain and the money has to be collected after collecting food stamps, so Gao Guoqing feels that even if he takes home a vegetable leaf, he is taking advantage of the country, so he has never eaten three full meals, and his family is hungry.
Song Enli had a small amount of rice, and after eating a third of it, he was almost left, and handed the chopsticks to Xiao Heping, "You clean up the mess, and I'll go and make you a bowl of noodles." ”
Xiao Heping was used to eating her saliva, and naturally began to pull after taking the chopsticks.
Song Enli got some sausage eggs and went downstairs, the people downstairs had already dispersed, and Chen Damei and Zheng Yanli were making lunch.
Chen Damei's family eats meat skin boiled cabbage and pasted cakes, but Zheng Yanli is kneading the bran vegetable dumplings, and there is a bowl of something similar to tofu residue on the side, which is steaming, there is no oil star at all, and the house is full of that sour smell.
"Sister Chen, what did you say about that later?" Song Enli took out the noodles from the low cabinet and took out a few more vegetable leaves.
"I was about to go up and tell you, but no one admitted it." Chen Damei filled her with a bowl of self-made sauce, "You taste what I made." ”
The miso is made of soybean flour, and people in the north generally like to eat it, but unfortunately soybeans and noodles are now rare things, and few people make them anymore.
Song Enli knew that Xiao Heping liked it too, so he didn't say anything polite to her, "I'll fill you with a bowl of meat jelly I made when I go back." ”
"You're welcome." Chen Damei rubbed it on the cupboard with a rag, and continued: "If no one recognizes me, I will give him three days, as long as I confess to me and make a promise and return the things, I will give him another chance, otherwise I can only ask Comrade He Yuzhen to deal with it at that time." ”
In fact, Chen Damei also knew in her heart that it was impossible to find out the thief for a while.
But Zheng Yanli, who finally grabbed a handle, heard this, and immediately became indignant, and pinched the bran dumplings in her hand to deform, "What? To deal with such a thief who has committed crimes one after another, you still have to give him another chance? Comrade Chen Damei, do you know that you are conniving at crimes? ”
Song Enli wanted to laugh when she heard her speak.
I don't know where she learned these professional terms, and she speaks one by one.
Chen Damei didn't speak, and Song Enli definitely didn't pay attention to her, but when she didn't hear it, she took the casserole stewed with pigskin from the briquette stove and put a small aluminum pot down.
Cooking in aluminum pots is unhealthy, but unfortunately the iron pots in the supply and marketing cooperatives and state-run stores are oversized, and her small briquette stove is even hard to heat, so she can only go back and find a way to get a bite back.
Both of them ignored her, but Zheng Yanli was endless, "Could it be that Comrade Chen Damei deliberately helped the thief?" If this is the case, I will certainly explain the facts to Comrade He Yuzhen. ”
"What do you want to do?"
"Send it to the Public Security Bureau and hand it over to the public security comrades for handling."
"You're so funny, the matter of the army is to the police."
"I'm telling you, I don't agree with this matter if it's not done strictly! You must know that this is the loss of our entire army......"
"Da Mei and Hongqi, bring the fish back for the two of you!" As he was talking, more than a dozen military wives who bought sea fish entered the door one after another, some carrying a small fish in their hands, and some of them loaded a small fish with a lunch box.
"It's just right, I've divided all the pigskins for you, come and get them." Chen Damei took out a large pot of pigskin from her cupboard.
It's a sea fish and a pigskin......
Zheng Yanli suddenly ran over and snatched the basin from Chen Damei's hand, and fell to the ground with a bang, "As a dormitory administrator, you actually took the lead in engaging in hedonism!" And you, you are all military wives, how can you only care about your own enjoyment when the broad masses of the people are united and struggling, don't you feel ashamed at all, I must criticize you! ”
