Chapter 115: Finding a Daughter-in-law for a Meal
She and Hu Xiaowen have already taken the matter of opening a store to heart. Regardless of whether they can make money or not, they will help!
During this period, the country has also vaguely revealed that it will open up to individual businesses, and it is no longer a secret.
"Yushan still wants to open a store? Well, whether you learn or not, based on our relationship, it's our duty to help!" A military wife who has a good relationship with Jiang Yushan immediately expressed her opinion.
The other military wives had no objections and all expressed their willingness.
"Sure, let's learn together!" Jiang Yushan agreed happily.
She has a lot of money now. In addition to the places she has already bought, it will be no problem for her to open a few more stores later. She has more than enough funds and sufficient supply of goods in the space.
It’s just that we are short of manpower. If we can train more people while we have free time now, we will not be short of manpower by then, and we can expand the scale while the trend is favorable. Wouldn’t that mean we can take off directly?
"Yushan, wait for me. I'll go get some paper and write it down." Mao Dongling suddenly interrupted Jiang Yushan who was explaining.
With her taking the lead, the other military wives also hurried to find paper and pen, and carefully wrote down the numbers and key points that Jiang Yushan said, for fear of forgetting them.
Several people learned very seriously, and Jiang Yushan was happy to teach. While explaining, he also let them try it out.
I opened several pots at the same time. Although there were instructions, the efficiency of cooking was greatly improved.
"It tastes good. You can be bolder in adding seasonings and control the heat to make it even better." After instructing them on how to make it, Jiang Yushan tasted it and was very satisfied.
We were very close the first time, and even though she intervened, everyone had great talent and after all, we had been cooking for so many years, so it was easy to teach.
The military wives who were praised were all very happy, and seeing that the time was almost up, they quickly placed the dishes at the window.
……
When it was time for lunch, the soldiers rushed into the canteen and started a new day of scrambling for food!
"Wife, please give me more!" Lin Jianjun arrived quite early and lined up in front of Hu Xiaowen's window.
He was waiting for Jiang Yushan to come to the cafeteria to cook. Now that he finally waited, he naturally wanted more.
Although he said this every time, Hu Xiaowen always handled things impartially and rarely called him too often.
"Huh~" The soldiers in the back immediately started to cheer him on when they heard him say that.
But it was also out of envy. These single soldiers who had not even gotten married had no wives to help them in the cafeteria, so naturally there was no one to give them more food.
"Wife~" Some soldiers even imitated him.
"Ahem!" Lin Jianjun suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but what he was more worried about was that Hu Xiaowen would not call him again because of the noise!
"We leaders are so busy that we have almost no time to eat. We've been in meetings, waiting for Huo Ci to report news from the front. We finally get out to eat, so what's wrong with eating a little more?" Lin Jianjun spoke more and more confidently.
During this period, they did attend a lot of meetings and often missed meals.
The soldiers who had been making a fuss just now were silent now. They knew something about the fact that the leaders had been holding meetings all the time.
"Hey, no, no, Political Commissar, please eat more."
"Sister-in-law, please give more help to the political commissar. The leader has worked hard!"
Hu Xiaowen, who had always handled matters impartially, felt a little distressed after hearing this, and silently gave him an extra spoonful of vegetable.
Although it was only one spoonful, Lin Jianjun was already satisfied. He happily took the lunch box and prepared to eat.
"Political Commissar!" Seeing Lin Jianjun was about to leave, Jiang Yushan, who was standing at the window next to him, quickly called him.
Because of the close distance, Lin Jianjun spoke very loudly and she heard clearly what he said.
"Hmm?" Lin Jianjun saw that it was Jiang Yushan, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Political Commissar, has Commander Huo not eaten yet?" Jiang Yushan asked with concern.
She was actually quite worried about Huo Qingrong. She felt that he was always busy and often didn't even have regular meals. If this continued for a long time, he would easily get stomach problems.
"Not yet. I've been waiting for news. The signal at sea is not good. I'm afraid of missing the news, so I dare not leave. The commander asked me to eat first, and I will take over when I go back." Lin Jianjun nodded and explained.
Although other people could be arranged to wait, Huo Qingrong was unwilling to do so. He wanted to get news from Huo Ci as soon as possible, so he waited by himself.
Lin Jianjun could understand it. Although this was not the first time Huo Ci had been on a mission, he was his son after all. How could he not be worried?
It has been three days, and we have only received one piece of news, which was the news that they arrived safely in the Paracel Islands.
Communication at sea is still inconvenient, but if it were on land, news would be sent back almost every day.
"Then, Political Commissar, please bring the food to the commander after you finish eating, otherwise he will have nothing to eat later." Jiang Yushan quickly took a lunch box, filled it with food and handed it to Lin Jianjun.
"Okay." Lin Jianjun agreed. Looking at the lunch box that had more food than he had, he suddenly felt a little envious.
How great it would be if this was his daughter-in-law...
No, he doesn’t have a daughter-in-law yet!
After finishing the lunch break, Jiang Yushan took a short break and continued to teach the military wives new dishes.
There were still many soldiers coming to eat in the evening, and the dishes were snatched up in no time.
"Yushan, after you clean up there, go back and have a rest. We will be busy here." Mao Dongling shouted to her from behind.
In the past, when Huo Ci came back to the cafeteria to wait for her and help with the work, the military wives would always let her go first.
"Sister Mao, I'm fine. I'm not in a hurry to go back." Jiang Yushan responded and collected all the empty vegetable bowls by the window, preparing to take them to the back kitchen to wash.
"Is it all finished?" Huo Qingrong arrived late and was surprised to see that there was not even any vegetable juice left in the dish.
"Dad?" There was no one else around at the moment, and Jiang Yushan didn't call the commander, "Are you done with your work?"
"Yeah, we just finished a meeting." Huo Qingrong nodded, looking from the empty vegetable bowl to Jiang Yushan, "Have you eaten?"
He didn't get to eat, but he was craving for what Jiang Yushan cooked, so he decided to shamelessly ask Jiang Yushan for a meal.
"Not yet. Why don't you come back with me to eat?" Jiang Yushan had already guessed what Huo Qingrong was thinking and took the initiative to propose it without Huo Qingrong saying it directly.
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you!" Huo Qingrong agreed happily.
He didn't just stand there and watch, he went over to help Jiang Yushan, but this caused her to be urged to go home even faster by other military wives.
Jiang Yushan had no choice but to leave work early and walk to the staff quarters with Huo Qingrong.
Just as he reached the gate of the family compound, Jiang Yushan suddenly remembered something and looked obviously nervous. Even his speech speed when talking to Huo Qingrong became faster.
"Dad, the house is a bit messy, I'll go upstairs and clean it up first!"
"Take your time, don't rush!"
After Jiang Yushan finished speaking, he immediately ran towards home. Without waiting for Huo Qingrong's response, he ran at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, like an arrow shot from a bow, for fear of running too slowly.
"This... it's okay if it's a little messy, I don't mind." Huo Qingrong watched his daughter-in-law run away in a flash, and Jiang Yushan couldn't hear what he said afterwards.
