Chapter 282 ‖ Pork Issue
"The bride is coming, the bride is coming!"
Suddenly there was a noisy sound in the courtyard, apparently there was movement from the front, and everyone was preparing to see the bride.
When the few people in the room heard the movement, they also stood up with a smile, and everyone exchanged a few polite words, and then walked outside.
"Let's go, go pick up the bride first."
"People are here, the banquet will be held in a while, the food at noon today is really hard, my children have been hungry for meat for a long time, this can be regarded as satisfying his hunger!"
"That's right, such a rich meal, coupled with Silly Zhu's cooking skills, it's exciting to think about!"
The neighbors happily walked to the front yard, talking as they went, and it was obvious that everyone had not been so happy for a long time.
The leaders of the meat factory and Director Sun of the street office couldn't squeeze forward with everyone, so they could only follow behind these people.
"I really hope that there will be happy events in our courtyard every day, so that we can mix more good dishes and good meals!"
"What are you dreaming about? Do you think everyone can work in a meat factory like Lao Zhu? ”
"That's not it, now you need a ticket to buy something, just the meat ticket issued every month, not to mention buying such a decent banquet, it's not enough to eat at home!"
In everyone's chat, everyone soon came to the gate, only to see Zhu Dachang holding a bicycle borrowed from Zheng Zhendong, and Aunt Ma standing next to him.
There is also a large bag hanging on the handlebar, and looking at the bulging appearance, it can be vaguely seen that it contains peanut candy.
"Guangqi, what are you still doing, hurry up and light the firecrackers!"
Liu Haizhong looked at the eldest son standing beside him, and immediately shouted, this stupid boy, he doesn't know how to take the initiative to work without command, he really has no eyesight.
"Dad, I'll go!"
Liu Guangqi's face was tight, after all, he was a young man, and he was suddenly shouted by his own father in front of so many people, and his face was a little unbearable.
But everyone was staring at him, and he didn't dare to say anything else, so he quickly responded and immediately ran over to light firecrackers.
"Crackling!"
As soon as the firecrackers to welcome relatives went off, they instantly spread far and wide in the alley, and the residents in the nearby courtyard heard the movement and hurriedly came out to join in the fun.
"It's time to welcome the bride!"
"There's a newcomer in our courtyard!"
The neighbors were quite face-saving, and they shouted loudly, who made the scene of Lao Zhu's house today, everyone can't eat other people's things in vain.
Besides, there are so many candy peanuts hanging from the handlebars!
Maybe the voice is louder and the shouting is harder, the Zhu family is happy to hear it, maybe they can sprinkle more!
The people in the courtyard next door pointed and pointed, they were all a little confused, they had seen the bride, they were all second marriages, why was it so grand?
Aunt Ma watched such a lively scene, and the neighbors in the courtyard came to greet her, which was an experience she had never had, and her heart was instantly excited, and she felt that this life was worth it.
It's not too early to see the time, and if it is delayed any longer, it will inevitably affect the auspicious time of the worship hall, so Yi Zhonghai immediately shouted at Zhu Dachang: "Dachang, don't hold it up, hurry up and lead the new daughter-in-law into the door!" ”
Zhu Dachang nodded with a smile, then took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Neighbors, I, Zhu Dachang, have married my daughter-in-law today, it is her, Yang Yumei, my daughter-in-law of the Zhu family!"
Thank you for your support, a little candy peanuts, everyone has a good luck, and now the candy is gone! ”
With that, he reached into the bag, grabbed a handful from it, and threw it out towards the crowd.
"Oh~ It's a happy candy, everyone come and pick it up!"
"Pick up the candy, Yan Jiekuang, your hands are really fast, leave us some!"
Everyone cheered, especially the children in the hospital, who were even more crazy.
But think about it, it's not to blame them, candy is too scarce after all, and it can't be seen on weekdays, and now it's hard to catch up, how can they not be excited.
Zhu Dachang sprinkled it again, and then handed the bag to his new daughter-in-law Yang Yumei, motioning for her to sprinkle sugar.
Yang Yumei glanced at Zhu Dachang quite happily, then nodded, grabbed the candy and sprinkled it.
Everyone cheered all the way, saying auspicious words while signaling Yang Yumei to scatter more.
In this way, Zhu Dachang pushed the bicycle, and Yang Yumei sprinkled sugar all the way, from the gate to the front yard, and then to the middle yard, all the way was full of laughter.
Stopping the car at the door of Zhu's house in the middle courtyard, Zhu Dachang led his new daughter-in-law into the door, and then began to prepare for the worship ceremony.
Because there is no old man above Zhu Dachang, coupled with the current popular trend, the two of them bowed three times to the portrait of the supreme leader, and this matter was done.
After sending the bride into the house, Zhu Dachang came to the stupid pillar accompanied by Zheng Zhendong.
"Zhuzi, I'm going to trouble you at noon today, I've worked hard!"
After saying this, Zhu Dachang hurriedly took out two boxes of cigarettes and a pack of sugar from his pocket and handed them over.
"Uncle Zhu, what do you think you're doing? I'm not an outsider, so we don't need this! ”
It's not that Silly Zhu didn't go out to help people make a banquet, he knows the rules here, but after all, this is a matter in the courtyard, so he hurriedly excused himself.
Zhu Dachang saw that the stupid pillar didn't want anything, and hurriedly persuaded again: "Pillar, this is the rule, you can take it with peace of mind!" ”
Seeing that the two of them were going to continue to push, Zheng Zhendong also said from the side: "Yes, Brother Zhuzi, you can accept it, this is Uncle Zhu's heart, don't refuse!" ”
Although Silly Zhu was still a little embarrassed, he finally took the thing.
Seeing the stupid pillar put things in his pocket, Zhu Dachang put his heart in his stomach, and then he said: "Zhuzi, you can order the dishes at noon today, after all, the guests who come are not only the people in our courtyard, but also the leaders of the street office and my factory, if you don't get it right, it won't be good, you say, right?" ”
Although this was not good, Zhu Dachang had to say it, because he didn't expect the director of the street office to come, so he was a little nervous, for fear that there would be a problem with the food and make the leader unhappy.
Maybe in other aspects, Silly Zhu may not be particularly confident, but when it comes to cooking, this guy is quite sure.
As soon as he heard Zhu Dachang finish speaking, he immediately patted his chest and said: "Uncle Zhu, you can do it, we don't dare to say anything else, cooking is my housekeeping skill, I can't smash my own signboard, right?" ”
"Yes, Uncle Zhu, Brother Zhuzi will definitely not do a bad job, you can rest assured that you will leave it to him!" Zheng Zhendong also followed suit.
While the three of them were talking, Mrs. Lin, with the support of Jia Zhang's family, slowly walked towards this side.
After coming to a few people, Mrs. Lin smiled before she spoke, she bared her teeth, and said to Zhu Dachang: "Dachang, the old lady is here to congratulate you, you are finally married, this is really a great thing!" ”
Although the intersection between the two is not much, after all, they have lived in a courtyard for so many years, and there is some affection, plus Mrs. Lin is so old, Zhu Dachang doesn't want to lose her manners.
So after hearing her finish speaking, Zhu Dachang hurriedly replied with a smile: "The old lady has accepted your auspicious words, please come to the house, I will let Yumei give you a gift!" ”
"Good, good......!"
came with a purpose, as soon as Mrs. Lin heard him say this, she immediately closed her mouth happily, she stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Dachang's arm, and took small steps to go to the house.
Seeing her so anxious, although Zhu Dachang didn't know what was wrong with her, he couldn't help but say, "You slow down, pay attention to your step!" ”
"It's okay, I'm on my legs!" Mrs. Lin waved her hand, signaling that she was fine.
Looking at Jia Zhang, who was still supporting Mrs. Lin, Zheng Zhendong nodded thoughtfully.
Maybe there's a ghost in my heart!
After feeling Zheng Zhendong's gaze on her, Jia Zhang first lowered her head as a thief, and then, as if she thought of something, she raised her head again.
Zheng Zhendong did not follow back to the house, but stayed and chatted with Silly Zhu.
However, after all, there are still so many dishes to be done, and Silly Zhu has no time to be idle, seeing that he looks busy, Zheng Zhendong can't continue to delay him.
I could only say hello to him, and then returned to Zhu's house.
As soon as he walked into the house, Zheng Zhendong found that the atmosphere was a little wrong, although he was a little curious about what was wrong, but he didn't ask.
After taking a few steps forward, Zheng Zhendong picked up the teapot on the table and helped everyone refill the water.
After helping Sun Xiangqun pour a cup first, Zheng Zhendong came to Lu Yannian, the director of the slaughtering workshop of the meat factory.
While pouring water, he pretended to be curious and asked: "Director Lu, your factory can't slaughter more livestock, the meat products on the market are too scarce, even if we people have meat tickets, we can't buy meat!" ”
Lu Yannian thought that Zheng Zhendong didn't understand, so he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Comrade Zheng Zhendong, you are embarrassing us, how many animals are slaughtered every day, there is a plan above, this matter, it is not up to us to have the final say." ”
After saying this, he shook his head, looked at Zheng Zhendong, who went to pour water for others, and said: "The above also wants to change this situation, but some things are not as simple as imagined, forget it, don't say it, you don't understand it!" ”
How could Zheng Zhendong not know about this, he just took this opportunity to see if he could improve the current situation on the people's table.
Looking at Lu Yannian, who was depressed, Zheng Zhendong came back after pouring water, put the teapot on the table, lifted the thermos on the table, and flushed it.
After everything was done, Zheng Zhendong pulled a chair over, put it directly beside Lu Yannian, and asked with a smile, "Can you make it clear?" It is said that one person is short, two people are long, so many of us are here, you talk about the problems and difficulties, maybe, everyone can help you come up with ideas! ”
Although this seems to be reasonable, Lu Yannian is not moved, if this matter is really so easy, the above will not start to solve it long ago, and it will have to wait until today?
But looking at Zheng Zhendong's expectant look, he still explained: "Our country is short of meat food, mainly because there are not so many livestock, let's take pigs as an example, do you know how long it takes to raise a pig?" ”
"Half a year?"
Although he knew that the pig slaughter rate was not high, Zheng Zhendong still deliberately gave an uncertain answer.
"How can it be so fast!" Lu Yannian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Then he explained: "It will take at least 11 months, and we also want to solve this problem, but the growth of pigs is too slow, and the people are unwilling to breed, so there is always a shortage of meat in this city!" ”
"That's what happened, I see!" After listening to him, Zheng Zhendong immediately made a look of sudden realization.
Seeing that Zheng Zhendong finally understood, Lu Yannian said earnestly: "Comrade Zheng Zhendong, although your idea is very good, this matter is really not easy to solve, so don't be discouraged, I believe that this problem will be solved one day, and you must have confidence in our party!" ”
Seeing that the foreshadowing was almost done in the early stage, Zheng Zhendong nodded and said: "I have been accompanying the experts from Su Erguan recently, and when I was idle, I heard them say that there is a kind of pig in their country with white skin, which is said to have been introduced from the Eagle Country, what is it called Yorkshire pig."
This kind of pig grows very fast, and the size is much larger than our pigs, if we can introduce this kind of pig to our country, will it be able to relieve the problem of pork tension? ”
Originally, it was just a casual chat, but who knew that Zheng Zhendong actually revealed these words, and now not only Lu Yannian was shocked, but even others couldn't sit still.
Sun Xiangqun asked directly: "Comrade Zheng Zhendong, what you said is true?" ”
After saying this, Sun Xiangqun stared at Zheng Zhendong nervously, for fear that he would just say it casually.
"That's true!"
Maybe for other things, Zheng Zhendong can't guarantee it, but he is very confident in this matter.
After all, this kind of pig was bred all over the country in later generations, although the meat quality of this pig is not good, and it is not as good as black pork, but now there is a large area of meat shortage in the country, so don't pursue the taste.
Seeing that Zheng Zhendong was serious, the others were immediately excited, especially the leaders from the meat factory, who attached too much importance to this matter, and asked him about the situation of this pig.
The atmosphere has been set to such a point, and Zheng Zhendong's previous purpose has been achieved.
Seeing that everyone was asking themselves, Zheng Zhendong hurriedly told him what he knew.
After introducing the situation, seeing that everyone was still unsatisfied, Zheng Zhendong said again: "Whether the matter is true or not, we can find out from the people of Suerguan, I believe that your meat factory must have a relationship in this regard, and this matter will be handed over to you!" ”
After listening to Zheng Zhendong's words, several leaders of the meat factory first glanced at each other, and then nodded one after another.
Obviously, Zheng Zhendong's proposal spoke to their hearts.
But after all, this proposal started because of Zheng Zhendong, and they were embarrassed not to say anything, and in the end, Lu Yannian opened his mouth.
I only heard him say: "Comrade Zheng Zhendong, if this matter is true, we will definitely give you credit, you can rest assured!" ”
Zheng Zhendong shook his head with a smile and said, "No need, Director Lu, as long as I can make the people's dining table have more oil and water, I will be satisfied, as for the credit or not, I don't care!" ”
