A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 14: Moving rations and eating chicken legs
"By the way, my food is still in the Youth League House. Comrade Qiu, please give me the remaining food."
Food rations were distributed once in the first half of the year, so she still had a lot of food at the Youth League Home. They helped her pack her luggage that day, but forgot about the food.
Qiu Shuxia was mainly responsible for logistics at the Youth League Institute. For example, she was in charge of everyone's food. She kept a record of who handed in how much, how much was eaten at each meal, and how much was left. It wasn't completely accurate, but it was pretty close.
Don't be surprised. A handful of rice is a precious thing these days, so you have to be careful with it.
Qiu Shuxia was the female educated youth who had secretly been eyeing her in the kitchen when she borrowed the car during the day. When her name was suddenly called, she responded slowly and glanced at Jiang Xue, obviously looking like a lackey.
Gu Qinghuan urged impatiently: "Could you please hurry up? I have something else to do."
Jiang Xue said sarcastically, "I almost forgot that you are now someone's stepmother. Busy! Qiu Shuxia is also worried that you can't carry it, why are you so anxious?"
"Don't bother yourself with whether I can take it or not. If you have the leisure time, you should worry more about yourself." Gu Qinghuan directly retorted.
Jiang Xue glared at her angrily. She had originally wanted to withhold her food to tease her, but when she got home from work, she heard about Gu Qinghuan's visit to Liu Guifang's house to ask for food in the afternoon, so she didn't dare to withhold it anymore.
It seems that Gu Qinghuan has become even crazier after getting married. Is it possible that madness can be contagious?
After giving Qiu Shuxia a look, Qiu Shuxia had to go back to her room and take out her notebook.
Gu Qinghuan successfully got his own rations, 223 kilograms of corn, 108 kilograms of potatoes, 41 kilograms of wheat, and 5 kilograms of soybeans.
These were all saved by the original body through frugality in the first half of the year.
She got the things, and it was a bit troublesome to move them back, but she had a way.
"Whoever has time to help deliver it home will be given a pound of corn." Gu Qinghuan shouted directly.
A pound of corn ground into cornmeal is enough for two or three meals, or four meals for girls with small appetites.
"I!"
"Can I do this?"
I thought that only gay men would respond, but I didn't expect that lesbians would also stand up.
The ones who stood up were Zhu Chunlin and a big girl named Lin Shengnan. She was also a unique existence in the Youth League Home. She could eat and work, and could replace a man.
Two people are not too many, and one person is not too few, so Gu Qinghuan is of course happy.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you two. I'll scoop out the reward for you first." After saying that, Gu Qinghuan borrowed Zhu Chunlin's lunch box and scooped a box of corn for each of them.
One pound more, no less.
The people watching the fun nearby felt a little regretful that they did not stand up to help. This was real reward. Food was so precious now and everyone was in need of it. It was just a matter of going out.
Chen Jianghe had a gloomy face and said nothing. He felt secretly competitive with Gu Qinghuan because she would rather give food to others than ask him for help.
"Some people have become the daughter-in-law of the Party Secretary, and have learned to be generous even though they are poor. They can't even have enough to eat, but they are still pretending to be good fortune boys."
It's Jiang Xue again, the bad-mouthed guy.
Gu Qinghuan clapped his hands, stood up and looked at her: "Are you done yet? Stop nagging me. If you have the guts, let's fight!"
Gu Qinghuan had learned Sanda in his previous life, and he never wanted to argue if things could be solved with fists. This woman was too annoying.
Jiang Xue was shocked. In the past, whenever she acted sarcastic, Gu Qinghuan would remain silent and ignore her, which led to her getting more and more angry. Unexpectedly, he would become tough this time.
The female educated youth next to her quickly advised her: "Okay, Jiang Xue, say less."
"You don't want to fight, right? Then shut your dog mouth. If there is a next time, I will beat you every time I see you." Gu Qinghuan waved his fist viciously.
Jiang Xue ran back to her room angrily and didn't come out all night.
Everyone in the Youth League Institute was stunned. They didn't expect that the usually taciturn Gu Qinghuan would change so much after getting married. But it was a good thing this way as she wouldn't be bullied anymore.
Gu Qinghuan carried a bag of wheat and soybeans.
The other four bags were carried on the shoulders of Zhu Chunlin and Lin Shengnan respectively.
All the way back to our new home at the foot of the mountain.
"Dabao, Beibei, open the door, I'm back." Gu Qinghuan shouted loudly.
Less than a minute later, the door opened from the inside, and Beibei rushed out and called out sweetly: "Mom, you're back? We have cleaned the house!"
Dabao didn't say anything, but he was very considerate and ran over to help carry the bags.
Gu Qinghuan handed him the lighter soybean bag and rubbed Beibei's little head with his free hands: "Good boy."
It was getting late, so Zhu Chunlin and Lin Shengnan helped move the food into the main room and then left.
The house was pitch dark, there wasn't even a kerosene lamp, and I didn't dare use a flashlight.
Gu Qinghuan could only temporarily go to the vending machine to buy two kerosene lamps and kerosene.
Finally there was a ray of light, although it was very faint. The room was indeed much cleaner than before. Except for some high places that could not be reached, it was basically clean.
"Ding dang dang, look what this is?" Gu Qinghuan took out a big round ball wrapped in tin foil.
Beibei sniffed hard with her little nose: "Delicious?"
Dabao knew that this must be the roast chicken that Gu Qinghuan had promised him.
"You guys did a great job today and helped me solve a difficult problem. This is a roast chicken as a reward for you. Come and eat it."
After saying that, Gu Qinghuan opened the tin foil, revealing the fragrant roast chicken inside.
Gu Qinghuan made this roast chicken in New Orleans style, which children generally like. The only difference is that the marinating time is a little short, so the taste is not as strong. But they are not picky now.
"Wow, mom, it smells so good!" Beibei hugged the table leg and looked at the roast chicken, his saliva almost flowing out.
Dabao was no different and was completely intoxicated by the aroma of the roast chicken.
These past two days, he had been eating white rice porridge, white bread, and even roast chicken. He felt like he was living in a dream and was afraid of waking up.
The two of them didn't ask where the roast chicken came from, so Gu Qinghuan's originally prepared excuse was not used.
He took out the four sets of bowls and chopsticks he had bought during the day and started to serve the roast chicken.
She tore off two chicken legs and gave them to the children, and she and the madman each had a chicken wing. Chicken breast meat was a bit tough and the children might not be able to chew it, so she gave it to the madman as he had a bigger appetite.
Divide the rest of the meat into each bowl.
"Here, this is for both of you, eat quickly. This portion is for your dad, Dabao will help feed him."
After saying that, Gu Qinghuan was about to pick up her portion and start eating, but unexpectedly Dabao suddenly pressed down on her bowl.
He put the chicken leg from his bowl into Gu Qinghuan's bowl: "You eat the chicken leg."
Gu Qinghuan suddenly felt a warm current in her heart. For the first time, she tasted the happiness of raising a child. The child was sensible and well-behaved, and all the hard work for the adults was worth it.
Although Dabao didn't call him mom, the fact that he gave her the big chicken leg in his bowl probably showed that he already accepted her in his heart.
Bei Bei saw her brother's actions and seemed to be thinking about something. The next second, she pushed her bowl in front of Gu Qinghuan and said, "Mom, you can have my chicken leg too."
Gu Qinghuan smiled silently, until tears came out of her eyes. She put the chicken leg back in her pocket and pinched the two children's cheeks: "Mom doesn't like chicken legs, but I have chicken wings. You can eat them. Eat more so you can grow meat and help mom do more things."
God knows she was telling the truth. Grilled chicken wings are more delicious than chicken legs, so she prefers grilled chicken wings.
But the two children were so moved that their mother gave them the delicious chicken legs and she could only gnaw on the chicken bones.
Dabao silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and swore in his heart that he would repay Gu Qinghuan well in the future.
I have to say, this is a beautiful misunderstanding.
