"Slow down, I won't run." At the exit of the station, Jiang Yan tidied up Jiang Sirui's somewhat messy hair, and said to her distressedly.

"Mmmm, it's not like it's been too long since I've seen you." Jiang Sirui cautiously looked at the crowd and explained in a whisper with a slightly red face.

Hearing her explanation, Jiang Yan couldn't help but smile on his face.

The luggage in her hand was quietly taken into the trunk of the car by Xiao Gong, the secretary who was quite discerning, without disturbing Jiang Yan and the two of them.

Just when the two of them were looking at each other's eyes, an inappropriate and annoying word reached Jiang Yan's ears.

"Sirui, who is this! Why haven't I heard you say that? ”

That posture and tone felt like he was the one who was in love with Jiang Sirui.

"Feng Nanshan, you pay me attention to the wording, Sirui is called, and please call me Comrade Jiang Sirui, I don't know you that well, and this is my boyfriend." Jiang Sirui's face turned cold, and a series of words came out of his mouth.

"Brother Jiang Yan, let's go, this person hates to death." After Jiang Sirui finished speaking, he was about to pull Jiang Yan away.

Seeing Jiang Sirui and them getting into the jeep, the face of this person named Feng Nanshan changed, knowing that he couldn't afford to mess with the people in the car.

"This stinky woman turned out to be climbing a high branch, and sooner or later she wants you to look good."

After he whispered, he spat in the direction Jiang Yan and the others left, and then carried his things to the bus stop sign with a stinky face.

When the comrades who came back from the car with him saw him like this, they shook their heads in unison, and no one paid attention to him.

"Feng Nanshan is a person sent by the Shengjing Aircraft Factory to work in the Aviation Bureau, this person is particularly annoying, and he is ghostly all day long."

This person named Feng Nanshan is also a college student, who usually thinks very highly of himself, and he doesn't look down on this or that, until Jiang Sirui goes to work at the Shengjing Aircraft Factory, this look is shocking, and he wanders around Jiang Sirui all day long, showing his superiority.

However, his so-called superiority is also a joke in front of Jiang Sirui.

Hearing Jiang Sirui's complaint, Jiang Yan smiled and didn't speak, and immediately prepared to let someone check him, he also had a face in this Shengjing Aircraft Factory, just a bedbug, Jiang Yan still didn't let go of his heart.

Suddenly, Jiang Yan heard a strange voice from Jiang Sirui, and Jiang Yan smiled when he heard this voice.

Seeing the evil smile on Jiang Yan's face, Jiang Sirui slapped Jiang Yan with a pink fist, "You bad person, what are you laughing at, you don't know that the things on the train are not delicious!" , I didn't eat until I was almost in Sijiu City. ”

"I want to eat something." Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Sirui with a smile and asked.

"Shabu mutton, I haven't eaten it for a long time."

"Okay," Jiang Yan agreed to Jiang Sirui, and then directly said to Wei Baoguo, who was driving in front: "Go to Donglaishun." ”

Today's Donglai Shun has been renamed "National Restaurant" after the public-private partnership, but the people of the old Sijiu City are still called Donglai Shun, and the public-private partnership after the Donglai Shun has expanded in the scale of operation, and the dining table has increased from the original 53 to 105, with more customers and a thriving turnover. But the shortcomings of lamb slices are not as delicious as before, and they are more exposed. The reason is that the mutton supplied by Sijiucheng Food Company is not of good quality, and the meat slices that come out are not chewy. At the same time, after the joint venture, more people ate shabu mutton, but the number of workers who could cut the meat did not increase. The public representative only called on the meat cutters to supply the meat slices in a timely manner, but ignored the quality of the meat slices. The key is the price, the third commercial bureau of Sijiucheng decided to reduce the price of Donglaishun's meat slices, to keep up with other restaurants, to learn from the experience of other restaurants to produce more meat slices, as a result, Donglaishun's managers and workers focused more on how to produce more meat slices and less meat, and the traditional craftsmanship of mutton to be finely selected, cut thinly and cleanly, was sloppy.

Of course, the mutton shabu made in this way is not delicious. Not only is the mutton sliced out in pieces, no longer slices, but the ingredients are not as delicate as before: the soy sauce is not sweet anymore, the sesame sauce sticks to the tongue, and the sweet garlic is spicy and bitter. Customers come in and are disappointed.

Since the chef in Donglaishun is now a senior brother of He Daqing, Jiang Yan often goes there to eat after he is cooked, although the taste is a little reduced, but there is a shortage of meat in the city, and this can only be improvised, if it weren't for He Yuzhu on duty today, Jiang Yan would take Jiang Sirui back to eat if he said anything.

"Yo, Comrade Jiang Yan is here!" Although Donglaishun has been changed to a state-run one, Jiang Yan is a regular customer, and this attitude is okay.

"Two people, do you have a small private room today?"

"Yes, you have it all!"

"Is mutton still rationed at one pound per table?" Jiang Yan opened his mouth and asked the waiter who took him to the private room.

"No, do you want more?" The waiter gave Jiang Yan a stinky sentence.

"This, take it and cut it." After Jiang Yan finished saying this, he took out the three catties of mutton that had been prepared from his bag, and he had to bring his own meat to eat shabu mutton this year, and there was no one left.

"Okay, private room 3, yourself, I'll keep an eye on the meat for you!" The waiter had already picked up the meat handed over by Jiang Yan and went to the back kitchen.

"I know, you kid is here, I haven't seen you in a few days." As soon as he sat down for a while, the door of his private room was pushed open, and a slightly chubby, fifty-year-old man pushed open the door and walked in happily.

"Uncle Qian, why are you here?" Jiang Yan stood up and said hello.

"It's not like it's been a long time since I've seen you, yo! Sirui is back, I haven't seen you for a long time, if you don't come back, this kid will go to you" Qian Dahai said hello to Jiang Sirui and sat down by himself, he often brought Jiang Sirui over for dinner before, and several people had also seen each other.

"The meat I brought today is good, I saw it just now, this thing is rare now, especially the half-catty cucumber strips, now it is even less, today I will take a look at your Uncle Qian and my craftsmanship, by the way, today look at Sirui's face and give you an extra pound of mutton."

"Then I'll thank you, Uncle Qian." Jiang Yan replied with a smile, but looking at his appearance today is not as simple as coming over to see himself.

Seeing Jiang Yan's playful smile, Qian Dahai's face turned red, "What, you know, you know now, this thing is not easy to get, my daughter-in-law just added a little grandson to me to catch up with this unlucky day, if you don't eat this milk well, it's not enough, these days just use paste to fool around, you have a big face, can you think of a way to get some malt milk powder." ”

Qian Dahai said that Jiang Yan had a lot of these things, and immediately agreed, which made Qian Dahai almost overjoyed, and the two of them agreed on the time and volume of the transaction, and Qian Dahai left the private room with a smile, and said before leaving: "Don't bother your little two, I'll cook the meat myself, and see your Uncle Qian's craftsmanship." ”

"Here comes the meat!" The meat came directly with the copper stove hot pot, but it also came with neatly cut pickled cucumbers and a plate of dry-fried lamb.

"This is specially made for you by Master Qian." The waiter who served the food said.

"Then thank you, Uncle Qian, for me." After Jiang Yan finished saying this, he turned his head to Jiang Sirui, who was sitting there, and said, "Let's go outside and make ingredients!" ”

Jiang Sirui nodded, and left the private room with Jiang Yan.

Coming to the place where the seasoning was placed, Jiang Yan laughed when he saw the person in charge, the staff in charge of the seasoning area was Qian Dahai's little apprentice Ma Debao, his age was half a year younger than Jiang Yan, and the two of them were quite familiar

Pony, hurry up and take out your prepared Erba sauce, by the way, your hidden chili, give me a spoonful! ”

In order to deal with the old customers, these people specially prepared some spices by themselves, but those who are not familiar with them do not know these things at all.

"Just open your mouth for a spoonful, I'll steal it for you, half a spoonful!"

"Where's the two of you, hurry up!"

Ma Debao muttered and poured the small bowl in Jiang Yan's hands full of sesame sauce, then took out a small bowl, added a spoonful of chili sauce to it with a little pain, and then quickly put it away.

"Look at you stingy, if you want to do it one day, go to me, I'll get you something, be stingy." Jiang Yan took the things and scolded him again, and returned to his private room refreshed.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Yan directly sent Jiang Sirui back to her house.

The sun rises and the moon sets, the stars change, and the peaceful life days feel that they pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye it is the season of midsummer, and the fire flows in July.

Since ancient times, the Chinese people have been following the traditional life of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and have experienced the changes brought about by the seasons between the alternation of the four seasons. No matter whether the days are safe or turbulent, the Chinese people will find the most suitable food according to the season, and use the food to give the best satisfaction and comfort to the family.

In the middle of summer, the scorching heat will make people's appetite decay, which is often referred to as bitter summer! Entering Futian, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the bitter summer situation is also very obvious. At this time, it is actually more necessary to use appropriate and suitable food to adjust the appetite of the family and support people to survive the 40 days of hot time.

Tou Fu eats dumplings, mainly to satisfy the appetite, dumplings are the trump card in the northern home food, at this time in addition to the New Year's Festival, ordinary people are rarely willing to eat a meal of dumplings, and eat dumplings on the day of Toufu, enough to comfort people's hot and unbearable mood!

In the middle of summer, there are many fillings to choose from, such as leek filling, fennel filling, zucchini filling, and creative ones can also have cucumber filling, eggplant filling, kidney bean, celery filling, and even tomato filling! When it comes to making dumplings, mothers in the north can unleash their imaginations.

And now that the vegetables on the farm have begun to be produced, Jiang Yan and their family have quite rich fillings.

Jiang Yan's family head Fu dumplings eat fennel filling, fennel has a faint medicinal taste, people who are not used to eating may vomit after eating a bite, but eating this thing is radish and cabbage have their own love, although the white flour is expensive nowadays, Jiang Yan They will not lack these things, but most people will still eat a meal of dumplings on this day, which is nothing more than how much meat is put or simply the top number of vegetarian filling.

To eat dumplings to chop the stuffing and garlic, to this day, every house in the Hutong courtyard is the sound of chopping the filling, some people also deliberately chop the cutting board louder, or take the garlic mortar and run to the door, just to tell others, today my family eats dumplings hey......

The weather is even more unbearable in the second dog days, and at this time it is time to eat a meal of cold noodles with sesame sauce that is characteristic of Sijiucheng! It seems that when it comes to the noodles of Sijiu City, everyone thinks of the old Sijiu fried noodles, but in fact, the most distinctive thing about the people in Sijiu City should be the cold noodles with sesame sauce!

Fried noodles are to have meat, but also to use oil, this is too luxurious nowadays, the average person is afraid that they can't eat it, besides, what year is it now, a person's ration is only a pound of two taels of meat, I can't afford to eat it!

Relatively speaking, this sesame sauce cold noodles are relatively simple, but if you want to make it authentic and delicious, it also takes a lot of effort, and now this sesame sauce has also begun to be limited, and the 28 sauce is now the favorite of the people of Sijiu City.

The best noodles are hand-rolled noodles, of course, there are no machine-pressed cut noodles and dried noodles, everyone rolls the noodles by themselves, cuts the noodles finely, cooks them in the pot, and takes them out of the cold water and cools them for later use.

Twenty-eight sauce with cool white open slowly, this is the place to see the kung fu, one is to add water can not be added more at a time, to slowly add water to stir, while adding the appropriate amount of salt, sugar, vinegar, sesame oil, until the sesame paste is stirred into a paste, and finally add the appropriate amount of soy sauce, this is the success of sesame paste, pay attention to people will also fry some pepper oil, hot pan cold oil on the peppercorn grains, the heat should be just right, can not fry paste, the taste is not right. Once you've got that, you're ready to mix noodles!

Put the minced garlic and cucumber shreds prepared in advance into the noodle bowl, roll two spoonfuls of the good sesame paste into it, and finally pour the fragrant pepper oil, mix these well, the fragrance will come out directly, sigh and snort to take a bite, hey! This is beautiful!

The fragrance of sesame paste, the sourness of aged vinegar, the hemp aroma of Sichuan pepper oil, and the freshness of garlic and cucumber, such a bowl of cold noodles in the summer is so cool, not to mention how happy!

The hot house can't stay in the house, the men in the courtyard are shirtless and carrying big bowls to the yard to eat noodles, and the heavy mouth will take a cucumber and garlic clove, a mouthful of noodles and a mouthful of garlic, and then a mouthful of cucumbers, while eating and working blindly with the neighbors, there is nothing more real than this in the world.

After eating the noodles, brew a pot of high crushed, the drunken killing mouth is authentic, sitting in the courtyard with a pu fan, the breeze of the summer night is not dry, the starry sky above the head is not light pollution, you can see the sky full of stars at a glance!

The diligent neighbors lit a few wormwood lavender mosquitoes, the children giggled around, the neighbors sat together and chatted about homely things, Jiang Yan liked this kind of day very much, in the days when there was no TV and no mobile phone, it was actually not bad to live a plain life like water!

Jiang Yan's family is living a good life, some of the neighbors are just envious and admired, such a neighbor Jiang Yan is willing to socialize, after all, people are still social creatures, some motives are not pure, thinking about taking advantage of him, as long as it is not too much, Jiang Yan, who can help easily, will not care too much.

Watermelons are not common in Sijiu City now, but Jiang Yan still made a few, this early in the morning was put in the well in his yard, after dinner, he fished it out of the well and cut it, this red and bright watermelon is really full of mouth, because the watermelon is too cold, the old lady also ate a piece, and accompanied Qin Huairu, who was seven months pregnant, and the two of them held a fan under the grapevine and listened to the radio to cool down,

Next to Jiang Yan is He Yushui, who is already in the third year of junior high school, and now the little girl has grown, and the little appearance is quite okay, but this girl may be born with a thin physique, she is not fat when she eats like this, she still looks very slim, and now she is pestering Jiang Yan to ask him to take her to the friendship store.

Jiang Yan has a unique scenery in their yard, and there is a sound of quarrel in the courtyard in front of them, and this one knows that it is Jia Zhang's voice, she is showing off in a loud voice that she eats meat and egg dumplings at home, and this girl's voice is eager to be known in all Sijiu City.

The economic base determines the superstructure, and it is the same at home, those who earn more money must speak harder than those who earn less. Li Zhaodi married Jia Dongxu, but not to give them the Jia family a succession.

Now that she has a job, this work is still quite hard, so naturally she has become a regular worker, and with a job, this waist pole is naturally hard, and this speech is also a little harder.

The Jia family is proud of the Jia Zhang family, and they can't wait to show off that they are dual-income workers in the family with a loudspeaker, but she still doesn't dare to come to Jiang Yan's yard no matter how she makes a fuss.

It turns out that the daughters-in-law in this courtyard are almost like this, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and their wives don't go to work, but now there are more Li Zhaodi and Qin Huairu at work, plus Jia Zhang's big mouth, many daughters-in-law don't feel good when they hear it.

Xu Damao has been busy to death these days, and the Red Star Farm is about to sow sweet potatoes in the summer, and he has been working day and night with people these days. The farm grows sweet potatoes mainly for pigs, and sweet potato vines are the feed that pigs are very willing to eat, of course, sweet potatoes are definitely reluctant to feed pigs.

According to estimates, more than 100 acres of sweet potatoes can be harvested almost 400,000 catties, although sweet potatoes are cheap, even if they cost 2 cents a catty, 400,000 catties will cost more than 8,000 yuan, and more importantly, this is food, and now it is a life-saving thing.

Not long after the sweet potatoes were harvested, they began to plant soybeans according to the plan, and according to estimates, soybeans were only one or two hundred catties per acre.

In Jiang Yan's impression, the yield per mu of soybeans should be 200 catties higher, and it took Professor Ding to figure out that the yield per mu of soybeans at this time is at this level, which may have something to do with seeds, which is not a problem that Jiang Yan can solve! If he really wants to make any hybrid high-yielding seeds, he has to be pulled and sliced.

In these years, soybeans are a good thing, not to mention the ability to squeeze oil, bean products have always been a hot commodity in the market, vegetable protein.

Now the Red Star Farm has raised more than 500 chickens, these chickens have begun to lay eggs in June, and now they can pick up an average of thirty or forty pounds of eggs every day, which is a great achievement, and now there is no need to buy eggs in the canteen, and there is still a surplus!

For this, Xu Damao removed the position of acting farm director in advance, and he is now a serious Xu Dachang director, otherwise he would not have worked so hard for a while.
