Chapter 309 Men who can cook are the most handsome
Jiang Yiming had nothing to do, so he wandered around the kitchen. Seeing Zhou Jiaguang wearing an apron and cooking in an elegant manner, he praised him, "I never knew that I had such cooking skills."
When Zhou Jiaguang was picking vegetables in the yard, he accidentally overheard the conversation between Zhou Rong and Zhou Cai.
In order to seek benefits for Zhou Cai, Zhou Jiaguang said with a smile: "A philosopher said that men who can cook are the most handsome and can also make women obsessed. That's how my second brother-in-law got my second sister. Apart from him, my second sister has no one else in her eyes. Why don't you learn from my third brother-in-law?"
Jiang Yiming lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked, "Which philosopher said this? How come I don't know it?"
Zhou Jiaguang: “I forgot her name, but her words were regarded as truth by everyone!
My third sister used to be a beauty in Chang'an. The men who wanted to pursue her could line up from our house to the riverside. Even now that she is married to you, my third brother-in-law, there are still people who miss her.
Yesterday, that guy asked me about her situation!
My third sister loves food the most. If my third brother-in-law has more cooking skills, she will definitely be unable to take her eyes off you when she sees you in the future!"
Jiang Yiming: "Really?"
Zhou Jiaguang: "Of course! I'm just a kid, why would I lie to you?!"
The eldest boy who was helping to light the fire continued, "Grandpa said that if a man loves his wife, he must pay attention to details, such as helping her wash clothes and cook, sharing housework, massaging her shoulders and back, and serving her tea and water.
Only these details can deeply touch a woman and make her like and recognize you from the bottom of her heart.
Grandpa said that he was very poor back then, and our grandmother was beautiful and capable, and many people were courting her. Grandpa moved her with what I said, and he successfully married her, and then they had a house full of children, and lived a happy life. "
Jiang Yiming asked in disbelief: "Zhou Cai told me a lot about your family, why didn't I hear her say this?"
Zhou Jiaguang responded quickly: "This secret is passed down to boys, not girls. My father only told the secret to the boys in the family. My third sister doesn't know, and of course he won't tell you.
Third brother-in-law, I really think highly of you and I admire your status as a soldier, so I told you the secrets of our family.
Don't think that everything will be fine if you marry my third sister. Nowadays, we value freedom of marriage. With my third sister's looks and talent, she will not marry a bad woman no matter how many times she marries!
Have you seen Qingran? She only wants her dad and not her mom. It's because my second brother-in-law can cook that he takes care of Qingran's meals. If you learn how to cook, your children will stick to you and not my third sister. Tell others about it and you'll be proud!"
Jiang Yiming: "But we all eat in the cafeteria, so we don't have to cook."
Big Baby: "The food in the cafeteria is all the same, it doesn't taste like home. If you don't believe me, learn to cook a few dishes yourself, I guarantee you will never want to eat in the cafeteria again."
Zhou Jiaguang picked up a piece of fried meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into Jiang Yiming's mouth: "Try it, does it taste the same as in your cafeteria?"
After tasting it, Jiang Yiming praised, "It is indeed better than the food in the cafeteria. I will learn from you. You teach me how to cook."
Zhou Jiaguang: “No problem!”
After that, Zhou Jiaguang taught Jiang Yiming all his cooking tips without reservation, and took him to practice whenever he had the chance, so that he gradually became a cooking master from someone who couldn't hold a spatula...
In early February, the Municipal Party Committee made the "Decision on boosting morale, advancing on the victory, and launching a production increase and savings campaign centered on technological revolution."
It was required that the total industrial output value of Jiangcheng area in 59 should increase by 58% compared with 65.6, that steel, machine tools, gauze and other light industrial products should more than double, and that capital construction investment should increase by more than 20%.
Since January, the shortage of raw materials for industrial production, market supplies, labor and transportation has become increasingly serious.
It is very difficult to complete the growth plan, but no one has raised any questions, otherwise they would be considered conservatives. No one wants to be labeled as such, so they can only go all out to achieve the goal...
After starting work, Zhou Rong and his shop needed to order a batch of fabrics, but they received a reply from their superiors that there were not enough materials, so they only approved half of the materials.
Xu Man quietly asked Zhou Rong: "Didn't we have a bumper cotton harvest last year? The newspaper said that the cotton yield per mu in some places can reach 5000 catties. How come there is not enough material?"
Zhou Rong bolted the door of his office and whispered, "The cotton yield per mu has always been 300-500 kilograms. Do you think it can be increased tenfold in one year?"
Xu Man: "According to common sense, I definitely don't believe it, but it's in the newspapers and many people have read it, so I have to believe it even if I don't want to."
Zhou Rong: "I heard that those data are all fake. Soon, not only will cloth be out of stock, but all food and daily necessities will be in short supply. While you can still buy food now, you should quickly stock up some at home."
Xu Man: "Is your judgment correct? Do you want to tell Chengnan about this?"
Zhou Rong: "It's useless to talk to him. It will hurt him. He is an upright person. If he knew that someone falsified data to curry favor with him, he would definitely report it to his superiors.
But in the current situation, no one who tells the truth will have a good ending. If you don't want him to be labeled as a member of the Y faction, don't say anything. Let Aunt Xue help cover up and store the food secretly. "
Xu Man: “Okay!”
After the Lantern Festival, the food supply standards in public canteens were adjusted again. Only porridge, steamed buns and pickles were provided in the morning and evening, and each person was limited to buying one portion.
At noon, there is rice and stir-fried radish or cabbage with a little oil, but no meat.
Someone questioned this, and the canteen manager said that it was the lean season now, and these were the only things available, nothing else.
No one accepted this explanation, saying that the people in the cafeteria must have embezzled money and food, which was why everyone had to eat so badly. Some people even posted posters at the cafeteria door, but it was useless.
People are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the canteen, and more and more people are cooking at home.
But even if you have money, you can only buy a few pieces of meat and vegetables in the market. Some sensitive people smell something unusual and do their best to store food at home...
The four vegetable shops in Zhoujiawan all reopened after the Lunar New Year. Since there is very little meat and vegetables sold in other places, the vegetable shops are currently doing good business.
In May, the central government put forward the policy of "actively running it well and voluntary participation" and the principles of "rations should be distributed to households", and required all public canteens to carry out rectification.
After consultation between Zhou Chuanjing and Zhou Chuanyi, they took this opportunity to call all the villagers of Zhoujiawan to vote to decide whether the public canteen should continue to operate.
As expected, most villagers hope to have their own share of the food so that they can decide how much to eat at each meal.
The public canteen in Zhoujiawan was the first to be disbanded in the entire commune.
If anyone said that they did not obey the organization's arrangements, Zhou Chuanyi and Zhou Chuanjing would show that person the central government's report on "actively doing a good job and voluntary participation" and "food rations should be distributed to households".
They also said that they listened to the organization the most and that everything they did was in accordance with the organization's policies.
The other party was speechless and had to leave in dismay...
