The Selection of Advanced Workers at the mine is about to be commenced. Xu Nannan is also busy doing something positive these days.

With regard to Wu Jian’s donation, she was not prepared to follow suit except for giving out a catty of food coupons. Instead, she went to the Mine to communicate with the workers in person, to understand the difficulties they encountered in their work, and what the Purchasing Department could solve, and all of them were recorded. But for everything that is really missing, she writes a purchase application form and applies for the purchase of materials back to meet the materials needed by the workers during their daily work.

This thing is done smoothly, so that people can’t make mistakes, and they are also actively completing their own work.

Because Wu Jian’s previous actions were too intense and the momentum was so great, Section Chief Xiao and the others in the Purchasing Department did not put pressure on Xu Nannan and let her go with the flow.

They didn’t want Xu Nannan to become like Wu Jian. At that time, the entire Purchasing Department had to take the lead in donating like the Trade Union.

The gain is not worth the loss. Compared with these so-called honors, food is more important.

Xu Nannan didn’t feel anxious either. She is not optimistic about Wu Jian. Now that the donation is over, Workers who will soon be in difficulty will ask the Trade Union for food. At that time, it was the beginning of the problem.

As for whether she can choose herself, she has a very peaceful mind. After all, she hasn’t done much for the Mine before, and it’s reasonable for them to not choose her. There’s no need to pity her.

So although Xu Nannan has been busy these days, she has had a very fulfilling life.

When Li Weiming was on a business trip, Zhu Fang came over at noon and took her to the cafeteria for dinner. She just found the middle group position and lined up, and found that Xu Jiansheng was also lined up for food in the next group. Xu Ling followed behind him, her head was looking around from time to time. Seeing Xu Nannan, she smiled and waved.

“Your sister can have a full meal now.” Zhu Fang whispered.

Xu Nannan also smiled at Xu Ling. She handed the rice bowl to Jiang Lili, and Jiang Lili snorted but gave her a large spoonful of vegetables.

When she came out with the vegetable bowl, Xu Nannan didn’t even know what was going on. Instead, Zhu Fang walked over and whispered, “I heard that she is getting better with a worker in the Mine. She was recruited from the countryside. They talked about marriage. It seems that after Wu Qing’s incident, she has finally gotten control of her temper. Her marriage has been settled.”

Xu Nannan nodded, then looked at Jiang Lili, the hostility on her face was really much less. It’s not like everyone owes her a thousand or eighty thousand like before. It’s much more normal.

It seems that people still have to experience a little bit of hardship before they know how to live.

The two women found a table and sat down. Just as they were about to eat, there was a commotion in the team.

Xu Nannan and Zhu Fang looked over, as if someone had fainted.

“Secretary Wu fainted, hurry up, take him to the infirmary.” someone yelled.

“He is so hungry. In order to donate food to the Mine Organization, he hasn’t rested for many days, and he hasn’t eaten anything for a while. How can he stand it!”

It was Xu Meizi’s shout.

“Oh, I’m hungry and dizzy. Get something to eat.” And there was humanity right away.

Xu Nannan and Zhu Fang were dumbfounded. Zhu Fang whispered, “It’s impossible. I watched him secretly eat eggs at noon yesterday.”

The two looked at each other.

“Secretary Yu, there are comrades here who fainted because of the hunger in the Mine. Why can you not let him eat?” Xu Meizi suddenly shouted to Xu Nannan.

She knew that Xu Nannan also participated in the Selection of Advanced Employees this time. Xu Nannan was raised several times by the report, and this time there was hope. She didn’t want Wu Jian to be crushed by Xu Nannan, she just yelled when she watched Xu Nannan sitting there. Let everyone see her cold-blooded ruthlessness.

Xu Nannan felt that she was shot while sitting. She originally wanted to watch Wu Jian act, but now it’s fine, people won’t let her just watch it. Okay, if you want to play around, then I’m not backing down.

Xu Nannan hurriedly picked up the bowl on the table next to him, “Oh, Mr. Wu, what’s wrong? I was shocked just now. This hungry person can’t eat at all. I’ve been hungry and fainted before and know what to do. “As she said that, she made a bowl of soup and said, “Get out of the way.” She pushed Xu Meizi away with one hand, and yelled at everyone around them, pinching Wu Jian’s nose, “Come and help him! “

Immediately a kind person ran over to help, and squeezed his cheeks heavily. Wu Jian’s mouth was squeezed open. Xu Nannan quickly poured water into his mouth.

“Cough cough cough cough…”

When the soup went down, Wu Jian woke up coughing, and exhaled constantly. “Hot.”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him awake.

Xu Nannan said guiltily, “Officer Wu, I’m sorry, I was too anxious, I couldn’t wait for the soup to cool down. You are better now, do you still want me to get some for you? By the way, you have to thank this comrade’s bowl. There are two bites of rice left in it, which happened to be in your stomach.”

As soon as Wu Jian heard this, he suddenly looked as if he had eaten flies.

Turning back to the owner of the bowl, she said, “Comrade, I’m sorry, I was too anxious just now. I used your bowl and grain, and because of that I will give you the food in that bowl.”

This comrade was still distressed about his two mouthfuls of food. He was a little embarrassed when Xu Nannan said that, “No, I can eat two fewer mouthfuls.”

“How can this work?” Xu Nannan winked at Zhu Fang. Zhu Fang hurried over with Xu Nannan’s bowl and poured the untouched food into this comrade’s bowl. “It’s all untouched, don’t you be polite.”

The comrade blushed and looked at the food in the bowl, but he couldn’t bear to return it again. He could take it back in the evening and feed it to the kids at home.

The people next to him looked at Xu Nannan’s generosity, and they all thought that the girl was so generous, and the two leftovers were given to such a big bowl for Secretary Wu.

Wu Jian also came back this time, looking at Xu Nannan with a black face.

Xu Meizi clenched her fists angrily. She didn’t expect that the girl who used to feed pigs in her hometown was so dark. It’s no wonder that even her mother said that this girl is a ‘perfect girl’.

Xu Nannan looked at the two of them and said, “Secretary Wu, you have to take care of your body, but don’t faint anymore. If you don’t have enough to eat, just eat my food. I will take a few bites. If you faint, how will the donated food stamps work? Don’t let them expire next month, they will all become waste paper.”

The worker beside him looked at Wu Jian with scorching eyes. The food is donated. When can they go to the Trade Union to ask for food?

Feeling the gazes of other people, Wu Jian remembered this.

Those food stamps have just been received, and they really haven’t yet begun to take effect. This is not conducive to canvassing.

Wu Jian felt that Xu Nannan had just reminded him to wake up. Although the incident failed this time, he would not have to faint when the food stamps were distributed. The workers would also support him.

A grateful smile appeared on his face, “Thank you very much. Just watch it. Our Trade Union will definitely do practical work for the workers in the Mine soon. These benefits will be implemented.”

Xu Nannan nodded in agreement, “Okay, everyone is waiting, Secretary Wu has to hurry up.”

She stood up with a rice bowl and walked out.

Zhu Fang also followed behind with the rice bowl. From time to time, she looked back at the two of them. Seeing Wu Jian’s face full of sour, she was embarrassed for him and chuckled about his situation. As for whether it is pitiful, he didn’t do what he did for sympathy. And that Xu Meizi is so black, and wants to pull Nannan into the dirty water.

After leaving the canteen, the two went to clean the rice bowl under the faucet.

Thinking that people like Wu Jian might get to be an Advanced Worker, Zhu Fang was a little unwilling. Such a hypocritical person, stepping on others to climb up, his thinking is not enough.

Zhu Fang whispered, “Oh, you really don’t worry at all. He has done a lot of this thing. Even if something goes wrong, he will not be distracted. Maybe the workers will really support him .”

Xu Nannan flushed the rice bowl and shook the water. “If there is nothing wrong with this matter, I will be willing to give him the vote at that time. I only worry about his kind intentions to do bad things. He wants trouble. You say it is really difficult in the Mine, how many workers, do you think are suffering?”

Zhu Fang really didn’t know this question. Anyway, she always heard that the workers over there are very difficult. They were all recruited from the countryside. They did hard work, and there were so many children at home that it was difficult to raise them all.

Xu Nannan said, “Don’t say anything else, just take me as an example. In rural areas, children who can’t work can also get a part of the ration. Not to mention if you mixed with wild vegetables and wheat bran, you will not starve to death. On the Mine’s side, the workers’ wages are not low. If you count the food in your hometown, you can actually feed your family. But why haven’t you fed them? In other word, the burden is too heavy. Not only to raise children, but also to support the family at the countryside.”

This is also the characteristic of this era, but whoever succeeds in the brothers of the family will pull out the other brothers. If you don’t help, someone will be poked into the backbone, saying that you have no conscience. It doesn’t matter whether it is Moral Kidnapping or not, it’s all this way anyway. It can even be regarded as a kind of brother, friend and respectfulness, and family unity to overcome difficulties together.

“In this way, the pressure on the workers from the village in the mine is really great. Donating food once will not solve the problem, but they will still be in short supply. The workers who are allocated will be grateful at that time, and those who have not been allocated will not be grateful. What about the approval? This donation of grain is not necessarily a good thing.” She felt that the leaders of the Mining Committee should have seen it, but for some reason they did not say anything about it.

After all, there are conflicts between the Mining Committee and the Trade Union. Although Sister Liu of the Trade Union is a sensible person, she can’t stand the workers and trust the Trade Union. Look at Wu Jian’s ability to instigate workers these two times, which shows the workers’ trust in the Trade Union. Wu Jian’s trouble with this matter may have followed the Mining Committee’s intentions. She felt that people like Mine Manager Gao and Mine Manager Li should not fail to see the hidden problems behind them. They didn’t mention it, only because they didn’t want to. Anyway, for them, the worst consequence is to recover the food that was sent out and return it to those who donated it.

In this way, the credibility of the Trade Union is greatly reduced.

Of course, this is just her guess, and it’s not easy to talk nonsense. Otherwise, it will provoke the relationship between the Mining Committee and the Trade Union.

Wu Jian’s work efficiency is quite high. Xu Nannan just said so at noon. When she left work in the afternoon, an announcement was posted on the bulletin board, and the batch of donated food stamps was ready to be applied. Workers and families with any type of difficulties can apply, and as long as they have passed the examination of the Trade Union, if it is indeed difficult, they can get corresponding subsidies for each type of difficulties.

Now the Mine exploded in chaos, and some didn’t even go to the cafeteria to eat, but ran to the Trade Union.

Even Li Jing was moved and wanted to go to the Trade Union to ask for food.

But they took out fifteen catties of food. The noisy house won’t open the pot anymore.

Xu Hong came back from outside and saw that Li Jing was going to ask for food. She frowned and said, “What a Shame!” She used to be ashamed, but now that Lin Qingsong may be coming to the Mine, she doesn’t want Lin Qingsong to know how shabby her family was.

Thinking about the meat dishes she ate that day, she couldn’t help swallowing. What a good life they had. It would be nice if she could live like this.

When Li Jing heard this, she stopped thinking. She also feels ashamed.

“By the way, what’s the matter with your partner, when can he come visit us?”

After Xu Meizi happened, Li Jing became more and more insecure. Xu Hong had to settle this matter earlier, and she had to contact the Country Party Committee earlier. She didn’t want the time to be long, and the bamboo basket was still empty.

Xu Hong tried the newly bought clothes, “What are you so anxious for? I can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry. Besides, he is not the best…”

Upon hearing Xu Hong’s words, Li Jing suddenly became anxious, “What do you mean, this thing won’t happen?”

“When it can’t be done, it’s because I don’t want to.” Xu Hong said unhappy, “If I agree, isn’t it still a matter of time?”

Li Jing was in disbelief, she frowned and said, “What do you want to do? Why won’t you make it happen? It’s good Country Party Committee’s family member, don’t you want to go at it?”

Seeing that Li Jing was upset, Xu Hong also knew that if she didn’t make it clear, her aunt would pull her back legs, so she could only put her clothes on the bed and pull Li Jing to sit down. With temperament, she said, “Auntie, do you think it’s better for the Country Party Committee or the Chief of the Capital’s Army?”

“Of course it’s good for the Chief, that’s an Official Rank.” She’s afraid that even the City Magistrate will have to bend over.

“That’s right. Auntie, let me tell you, I know a son from the Chief’s family now…” Xu Hong told herself and Lin Qingsong’s acquaintance, including the person who asked Xu Jiansheng for help and the man whom she met yesterday. It was Lin Qingsong, and she told Li Jing all this from beginning to end.

Li Jing’s neck was red.

“Why didn’t you say it earlier, so I could have talked to your uncle to talk to the Mine? As long as he comes to the Mine, it will not happen sooner or later?” Li Jing said with a bit of anger. Looking at Xu Hong’s eyes, she felt hotter for a while. I thought Xu Hong was about to fly onto the branch and become a phoenix. Looking at it now, the phoenix can still fly higher.

Although Xu Meizi had made her wasted all these years, as long as Xu Hong was done, her hard work over the years would not have been wasted.

Without waiting for Xu Jiansheng to come back, Li Jing rushed to find him, and asked Xu Jiansheng if he could help Xu Hong talk about Lin Qingsong.

Xu Jiansheng is not waiting to see her now, and a little impatiently said, “As I said, Mine Manager Gao said that if he is a college student, he should come directly to the mine to meet and wait until they have met.”

After Xu Jiansheng’s words, Li Jing couldn’t take care of him anymore, and immediately ran back to Xu Hong to talk about it.

With the approval, Xu Hong couldn’t sit still. The day after tomorrow is a small weekend. If you don’t come tomorrow, you will have to wait until Monday again.

She didn’t care about eating or not, and changed into beautiful clothes, so she ran out.

In the evening, Lin Qingbai returned from work, and found that his brother was at home. Moreover, the bed was turned over in a mess, and the clothes in the box were turned over. Even his shirt box was turned over.

Lin Qingbai frowned, “Are you going out again?”

“I’m not brother, I want to change my job, and I will go to the Nanjiang City Iron Mine tomorrow. Come and help me see, which suit do I wear looks more mature and stable?”

Lin Qingsong also knew that his face was long and tender, and when he arrived in front of the Mine Leaders, he estimated that he would be underestimated, and he still had to clean up.

Hearing the words Nanjiang City Iron Mine, Lin Qingbai frowned, “What are you going to do there? Isn’t it a good job in the Supply and Marketing cooperative? If you don’t want to do it, go back to the Capital, don’t play around.”

“Oh, brother, you don’t understand, I really want to have a career. Besides, you are facing these monsters here alone, and I worry about you being alone. I’m worried as your little brother. I have to help you watch your back.” Lin Qingsong said while trying on clothes.

Lin Qingbai shook his head, and regardless of him, he cleaned up the things on his bed and stacked the clothes neatly.

Lin Qingsong stopped him, “Brother, lend me more of your clothes to wear.”

“Can you wear it?” Lin Qingbai looked at him funny.

“What should I do then? I must go to Nanjiang City Iron Mine.”

“What’s the reason?” Lin Qingbai put down his clothes and asked with a frown. “Don’t tell me, you just sit around and do nothing. If that’s the case, you can go back to the Capital and don’t mess around with the people here.”

Lin Qingsong has long wanted to talk to his brother about these things, but his brother is usually busy and doesn’t like to talk, so he doesn’t have time, “Brother, do you believe in fate? I’ll tell you, I was in Shanghai before. I met a girl, then when I came to Annan by train, I met her again. And now I met her again in Nanjiang City a few days ago. I think it’s fun to think about it.”

His tone was excited, but Lin Qingbai felt that he was making a fool of himself as he listened.

“Does the girl like you? Are you chasing after the Mine just because of a girl?”

Lin Qingsong shrugged his shoulders, “That’s not the case. Besides, I don’t like other people anymore. I think she’s very fun and unique. Anyway, if you want to stay in Nanjiang City, of course, you have to find a suitable place. And I Majored in Mechanics, which is also useful in Mines.”

Listening to this kid’s heartless talk of nonsense, Lin Qingbai suddenly felt a little envious of him.

It is not easy to be able to generate such a temperament. Then he remembered Xu Nannan, who likes to hold on to everything and doesn’t like to owe people to his family. How much hardship does it take to develop that temperament?

Speaking of which, the little girl wants to invite him to dinner the day after tomorrow.

He has to find a good place.

He’s used to Lin Qingsong’s nonsense all these years, and Lin Qingbai doesn’t want to bother. Anyway, someone will come and take this kid away after a while, so let him be wild for a while.

When Xu Nannan came to the Mine the next day, she found that the Trade Union was extremely lively.

Zhu Fang came early to watch the excitement outside, and when she saw her, she waved her over to watch the excitement. Xu Nannan walked over and found that Sister Liu from the Purchasing Department was also there, and Xiao Zhang also padded his feet and looked inside.

“Last night the food stamps were gone. It was said that they were asked to apply for the more difficult ones. As a result, their wives and children came directly to the Trade Union to complain about their Poverty Life. How could the Trade Union stand it? They came to one family to give them food stamp, after a while, another family came, they also give them food stamps, and when the morning came, there was no more food stamp left. Here, we can see that the Chief of Trade Union is being surrounded by people.”

“No one is going to deal with this matter?” Xu Nannan didn’t expect that it would be only one night, she only started to make trouble yesterday. She thought she would have to wait until Monday to see the result.

“Someone went to the house of the Mine Managers to find someone. It is estimated that they will be coming soon. Wu Jian is currently running away from here.”

“…” This was a wrong thing, and she didn’t even have the courage to deal with this, so she thought about voting for him before but now…

After all, they are all people who want to work, and they can’t all watch the fun here. Sister Liu shook her head and sighed, pulling Xu Nannan back to the Purchasing Department. Zhu Fang can’t leave, she belongs to the Mining Committee and has to wait here for the Mine Managers to come over and deal with the matter.

Although they were sitting in the office, the hearts of Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang were flying, and they both wanted to know how to deal with this matter in the future.

After work at noon, Sister Liu went to the Mining Committee, and even took Xu Nannan with her.

This girl has a good relationship with the Mining Committee and can inquire about the news.

The two dared not go in, and only waited outside. After a while, Zhu Fang and a few small officers from the Mining Committee came out.

Seeing Xu Nannan and Sister Liu, Zhu Fang trot over and said, “The highest position in the Mine Managers acted resolutely and let the food stamps issued by the Trade Union be collected. They returned the food stamps of the workers, leaving only the food stamps of the cadres. To subsidize a few needy households, the workers were upset, and Chairman Liu and my Auntie both went to calm down the workers. Fortunately, the food stamps were only issued last night, and it was not late to gather them again.”

After hearing the gossip, Big Sister Liu didn’t stay too much, she only smiled and said goodbye, before she ran to her house. No matter what, she can take back her catty of grains.

When there were only two people left, Zhu Fang whispered, “I don’t know what’s going on. Mine Manager Gao didn’t lose his temper today. Our Mining Committee thought Mine Manager Gao was going to be angry this time.”

Xu Nannan thought, is it really what she thinks?

“It’s fine if you don’t lose your temper, or else you will be dragged down in the Mining Committee. Go, let’s go eat.”

“Oh, you have to go first, and I have to take someone to go through the formalities. Don’t you know, there is a College Student from the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Beijing University? The Mine is like a baby, only the best for our baby. He said, that person should go to the Mine. Give guidance to our workers, teach those masters, and let them receive new knowledge.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Nannan asked, “Did Director Xu introduced it?”

“How do you know, he really talked to the Mine Manager, and the Mine Manager saw someone. I saw that he was quite young. It’s not the same as the young ones in our mine. It’s a pity that I already have a partner…” She joked with a smile.

Looking at Xu Nannan again, she said, “You can try, or go with me?”

“Stop, I’ll go to eat first, you are busy.” Xu Nannan slid away immediately.

She didn’t dare to get acquainted with the person Xu Hong introduced.

Before going to work in the afternoon, the mood of the Mine workers was basically calmed down. It took a lot of effort for President Liu and Director Zhu to calm the matter down. Both of them were full of resentment towards Wu Jian. It’s quite possible to play around when making trouble. If something happens, run away and let other people wipe their buttocks. What do you think of them?

It didn’t take long for Xu Nannan to receive a notice. This time, the Advanced Worker Candidates must speak according to the difficulties of the Mine workers. It turns out that although Director Zhu stabilized the workers’ emotions, the workers were a little uncomfortable. Therefore, Mine Manager Gao hoped to at least ease the difficulties of the workers. Even if it can’t be solved, they can take a stand and let the workers know that the mine attaches great importance to this. Anything is fine, so there is such a thing.

Upon receiving this news, Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang became active and helped Xu Nannan pay attention to how to solve these problems in the Mine.

Speaking of it, there is one conclusion at the end, that is, there is no solution.

Xu Nannan was wringing her brains and thinking about countermeasures, and Zhu Fang led the people over.

“I will introduce to you the new comrade, the Technical Guidance from our Mine, Instructor Lin.”

Xu Nannan, Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang all stood up to welcome the new colleague. When she saw the face of her new colleague, Xu Nannan stared at the man.

The visitor was combing three or seven points, wearing blue overalls and a white shirt inside, looking at the appearance of a young intellectual.

But this face, she can’t be impressed.

This, isn’t this man doing purchases in the supply and marketing cooperative? In a blink of an eye, he came to do Technical Guidance. This is a liar.

Lin Qingsong smiled brilliantly, shook hands with everyone enthusiastically and introduced himself.

When it was Xu Nannan’s turn, he smiled and said, “Secretary Yu, hello, my name is Lin Qingsong. I will show you a lot of things in the future.”

Xu Nannan smiled and said, “Don’t even dare.”

Fortunately, Lin Qingsong didn’t stay here long, because Zhu Fang took him to meet his colleagues elsewhere.

Sister Liu said excitedly, “A good-looking junior came to our Mine. Look how enthusiastic he is just now. Unlike some College Students who have long eyes on top of their heads.”

Xu Nannan smiled perfunctorily, and scolded Lin Qingsong seventeen or eighteen times in her heart.

She had known for a long time that he was not a good person. Now that he and Xu Hong know each other, it seems that they are really not a good person. She was blinded by his name, and he was only one word behind Brother Lin.

After leaving work in the afternoon, Xu Nannan was thinking about eating tomorrow.

Thinking of inviting Lin Qingbai to dinner tomorrow, she was quite looking forward to it. She will make sure to make him eat more this time and order some good dishes. Well, in the future, she would like to give Brother Lin some future food dishes, and let him try it.

Walking on the road, Xu Nannan was still thinking about it.

“Secretary Yu,” a shout came from behind her.

Xu Nannan heard the sound and quickened her pace.

The pace behind him also sped up, and he soon caught up. Xu Nannan couldn’t run, so she just kept walking forward.

“Secretary Yu, why don’t you speak?” Lin Qingsong smiled enthusiastically.

Xu Nannan found that there were workers nearby watching them, so she frowned and glanced at him, then stood on the side of the road.

“Instructor Lin, do you know Xu Hong?” She said straight to the point.

Lin Qingsong nodded in wonder, “Do you know her too?”

Xu Nannan was unhappy and said, “I suggest you go to the Mine to find out about Xu Hong’s relationship with me. Although we are colleagues, no one stipulates that colleagues should get along well. Originally, we can be ordinary colleagues, but now I am a little bit. I don’t want to care about you either. I hope you will stop pestering me, otherwise it will cause me trouble.”

After speaking straightforwardly, Xu Nannan turned her head and left.

What she said was from the bottom of her heart. Before, she felt that this man was too familiar and not serious, so she didn’t want to touch it. Now that he and Xu Hong are the same people, it would be more respectful to stay away.

Lin Qingsong didn’t expect Xu Nannan to say such a thing. Some wanted to continue talking to others, but seeing the disgust in her eyes, some couldn’t do it. He simply turned around and went back to the Mine to find someone to inquire about the relationship between Secretary Yu and Xu Hong.

After a while, Lin Qingsong walked home with a bitter expression.

Back home, Lin Qingsong was depressed and frowning. He wanted to find someone to talk to, and found that his brother was busy looking for clothes.

This is unprecedented.

“Brother, why are you starting to learn from me to turn things over?”

Lin Qingbai stared at the clothes on the bed with a serious face, “There will be something that is not suitable for wearing military uniform tomorrow, so I have to dress appropriately.”

“What’s the matter?” Lin Qingsong couldn’t take care of his little trouble, and looked at his elder brother with gossip. He hadn’t seen his elder brother working hard to dress in these years.

“Official business, don’t get yourself involved.” Lin Qingbai picked and picked, and finally picked a white shirt and army green pants.

Shoes… well, black pointed toe shoes are better.

The next day, Lin Qingbai ignored Lin Qingsong’s dissatisfaction and rode away on a bicycle.

Xu Nannan also put on the newly bought Bragi in the morning.

The yellow Braji, set off a brighter color on her face. Grandma Yu looked at it, complimenting her good look.

“It’s time to put it on.”

It’s mid-June, and some young women in the factory are wearing bright clothes, and this granddaughter is wearing work clothes all day long.

Xu Nannan pulled her skirt, “It’s not convenient to wear when working in the mine.” It was too glaring.

Seeing that the appointment time was approaching, she put her bag on her back and before she left, she greeted her family a goodbye. Xu Nannan will not come back for dinner at noon, and Xu Nannan ran out in a hurry.

Grandma Yu looked at her from behind and smiled, “What a big girl.”

Xu Nannan ran all the way to the old place and saw Lin Qingbai waiting by the side of the road pushing his bicycle. She yelled happily and ran over, “Brother Lin.”

Lin Qingbai watched her run over, with a natural smile on her face. His long legs stepped into the pedal of the bike and sat in, “Quickly, this time I will take you to a good place to eat.”

Xu Nannan pulled her skirt and sat up sideways.

Xu Nannan sighed comfortably as the bike moved.

Lin Qingbai stepped on the pedal, crossed several alleys, and turned a few turns. The scenery in front of them is constantly changing.

Xu Nannan said, “Will we not go to the hotel?”

“No, I will take you to a good meal this time. There is no restaurant either.”

While talking, the bike stopped in front of a blue brick hut.

Before entering the house, she smelled a scent.

Lin Qingbai knocked on the door. An old aunt opened the door with some vigilance, and smiled happily when he saw that Lin Qingbai was coming. “Director Lin, here you are. I’m almost done here.”

She said that while opening the door wide and let the two of them in.

The aunt kept looking at Xu Nannan, and Lin Qingbai said, “This is my little sister.”

“It turned out to be Minister Lin’s sister. It’s no wonder that Minister Lin prepared so many things yesterday. Little sister, your big brother is really kind to me, this time it’s all good stuff.”

The house is not big, the main room has a single room, and the house is quite dilapidated.

The two sat down at the small wooden table in the main room.

“Brother Lin, what is this place for?” Xu Nannan looked around curiously, it didn’t look like a restaurant.

Lin Qingbai looked at the kitchen, “Just now, that was a Master Chef. Her ancestors have owned restaurants for generations. In the old society, the restaurant could not be opened, so she was a cook at home. Later, she fled from famine and came here and married the locals.”

Xu Nannan was surprised. Just when she was about to speak, the aunt came out with a big casserole. She put it on the table and the scent is smelled before the lid is opened.

Xu Nannan blinked. Although she did not eat badly, she hadn’t smelled such a delicious taste for a long, long time.

Seeing her reaction, Lin Qingbai smiled and lifted the lid.

The fragrance is overflowing.

“This pot of pheasant soup, I simmered it slowly, and boiled it all night.” Auntie smiled on the side, “You drink it first, and I will fry two dishes. Minister Lin can take it this time. A lot of materials are here.”

When people left, Xu Nannan looked at Lin Qingbai curiously, “Brother Lin, where did you get these things?” These are not easy to buy, even in black martket.

“When I went out yesterday, I passed by a deep mountain. I tried my luck inside but I didn’t expect to get it. And you just got sick, drinking soup is the most suitable for your body.”

Thinking about the meal today, he deliberately went to the countryside to collect things from near villagers yesterday, but he collected a fish in the end. There is no other way but to find it by himself in the woods. Fortunately, he got a pheasant at that the time. You have to find a good cook for good ingredients. Lin Qingbai remembered some special people he knew after coming to the Nanjiang City, and he thought of this master.

Xu Nannan took a sip of the soup, which was really fragrant and sweet.

Staring at the big drumstick again. Two…one for each! Xu Nannan is welcome, to get the two chicken legs.

Lin Qingbai looked at the chicken drumsticks in his bowl, smiled, picked it up and bit into it. Seeing that Xu Nannan’s lips are full of oil, it makes him happier eating.

After a while, the aunt came with another steamed fish. Sprinkled with lightly green slices of shallots on top, she pick up the belly of the fish, and there was garlic inside.

She put a piece of fish in her mouth, and it melted before it was too tender to bite. Xu Nannan’s eyes lit up and put the plate in front of Lin Qingbai, “Brother Lin eat this, this is delicious!”

“Okay.” Lin Qingbai picked a piece of fish back.

After a meal, Xu Nannan couldn’t walk anymore. This Master Chef’s Craftsmanship is really good. It’s not the flavor that will be made with seasonings in the future. It’s really authentic flavor.

It’s so delicious.

She remembered again, this time that she had agreed to treat him, herself, but it turned out to be Lin Qingbai’s treat.

“Brother Lin, I owe you a meal again.” Every time I want to pay it back, I feel more and more indebted…When can I pay it all off?

Lin Qingbai slowly drank the tea after dinner, “It’s okay, there is still a chance in the future.”

After dinner, it was still early and it was hard to come and play, the two of them simply went for a drive along the river. At this time, the river has not been polluted. The Yang Liu Yiyi river is turbulent. The sun shone and it was sparkling

Xu Nannan has been to Nanjiang City for so long, and she has never been here to play. She doesn’t know that Nanjiang City has such a beautiful scenery.

On the way back, Xu Nannan was reluctant to think about it, “Brother Lin, I had a great time today. I don’t want to go to work tomorrow. If you don’t know, we have a man who has come to the mine, and his name is just one word short of yours. He has a poor temperament. Even if I’m far away, he still find me very familiar. I don’t want to talk to him, but he still wants to talk to me.”

With a crunch, the bike stopped.

Lin Qingbai put his foot on the ground and asked back, “What’s his name?”

“Lin Qingsong. There is only one word missing from your name. I really dislike this person.”
