Chapter 126 What's Good About Men
Coincidentally, the new deputy secretary’s surname is also Wei, the same as Dr. Wei.
However, although Deputy Secretary Wei looked like a gentle and kind middle-aged aunt, Gu Wan's intuition told her that this was wrong.
It was mainly her eyes. Deputy Secretary Wei stood there with a smile on her face, but the way she looked at herself was -
Although Gu Wan had never experienced social life before, after all, children in later generations have been exposed to online television since childhood, and they may not understand the ways of the world less than adults.
Deputy Secretary Wei looked at Gu Wan with an inexplicable hostility, which was enough to make people ponder.
For a woman to become the secretary of a commune in this era, even if she was only a deputy, she must have extraordinary skills.
But Gu Wan was clearly sure that neither he nor the original owner had any impression of this person, so why didn't she like him?
Deputy Secretary Wei's identity is truly unique, which can be seen from the way she dresses.
An outfit like the one worn by the new deputy secretary would cost at least 50 or 60 yuan. You have to know that in those days, the monthly salary of an ordinary worker was only 20 or 30 yuan.
Most people would not be willing to spend several months' salary on something they wear. It can be said that Dacron in this era is a big brand, and wearing it is a symbol of status.
When enemies come, we will fight back; when water comes, we will block it. At least nothing else has happened yet, and Gu Wan will not let his life be affected by fear of everything.
I continued to work hard and prepared lunch. When I was about to go back home after eating, I actually saw Qi Bin riding a bicycle outside.
According to public statements, Qi Bin was of course preparing to go back after finishing his business, because he was currently staying temporarily at Gu's house.
So it was just right to take Gu Wan back with me, so that the little girl wouldn't have to walk such a long distance.
This was a legitimate reason, so Gu Wan sat on the back seat of Qi Bin's bicycle and went back with him.
A tall and handsome boy (false proposition) riding a bicycle with a beautiful girl with long flowing hair is a very beautiful picture of a campus romance.
That’s right, riding on this bumpy road was shaky, and Gu Wan had to hold Qi Bin’s waist several times to keep his balance.
Fortunately, I didn’t see many people along the way, otherwise it would be hard to describe.
Gu Wan even had reason to suspect that Qi Bin deliberately rode the bike in such a bumpy and unstable state.
Because of this, Gu Wan didn't notice until she got home that there was a cloth bag hanging from the handlebars of Qi Bin's car.
It turned out to be a slaughtered rooster. The old man had just picked a lot of wild chestnuts in the mountains, so Gu Wan prepared to make chestnut roast chicken.
In fact, the three brothers of the Gu family now eat separately, and there is only one chicken, which is not enough for too many people.
So Gu Wan discussed it with her mother and decided to just have her grandparents come over for dinner, and when the chestnut roast chicken was ready, her eldest and second uncles would just send a bowl over.
With the help of grandma and mother, cooking will naturally be much faster.
Fortunately, the chicken was killed in advance, otherwise, Gu Wan would not dare to kill the chicken.
However, this chicken looks delicious. Unlike the chickens in later generations that are all fed with feed, nowadays they are basically free-range chickens grown on farms.
The meat is fat, tender, and firm.
Remove the chicken neck and buttocks, then chop it into cubes, clean it and blanch it in a pot to remove the blood.
Add cold oil to the pan, and when the oil is hot, add onion, ginger, garlic, star anise and other seasonings and stir-fry. After the aroma comes out, add the chicken.
Stir-fry repeatedly until it changes color, then add soy sauce and rock sugar. Then add boiling water and simmer over high heat. Add chestnuts after boiling.
During this period, because Gu Wan had been adding more and more seasonings, the kitchen was fully stocked with all kinds of seasonings. Now Qiao Yuemei would also learn to add some when cooking. Of course, the original flavor of the food was great, but the dishes would still taste even better with some seasonings.
The aroma of chestnuts and chicken blended together during the stewing process, blending the good taste of the seasoning. After the juice was collected, both chestnuts and chicken were cooked into an attractive brown-red color.
The fragrance filled the whole house, and just then the Forest Brothers came back from work.
As a result, they rushed directly into the kitchen as soon as they entered the yard: "Sister, what delicious food have you made again?"
Qiao Yuemei pretended to be angry: "Can't it be me who cooked it? Is my cooking not delicious?"
The two brothers giggled and said, mom’s cooking is delicious.
But it doesn’t taste like what Wanwan made.
This is a big dish, and a few other dishes need to be prepared, but Qiao Yuemei has already decided to divide two large bowls and send them to her uncle's and second uncle's homes.
Everyone in the Gu family was very happy tonight. For example, although the eldest and second Gu families only brought over one bowl of food, Qiao Yuemei actually used large bowls to serve quite a bit.
Together with other dishes, the whole family enjoyed the meal very much.
But at the educated youth training center, people's hearts were in turmoil and some people's lives were not so good.
After that incident, the relationship between the female educated youth became closer, especially Luo Yutong and Zhou Weihong, who originally disliked each other.
The old educated youth Ye Meihua was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma, but after Qiu Qin's incident, Luo Yutong let it go.
If you take men too seriously, you may end up making your life miserable.
Especially last time Zhou Weihong's performance was very good and really helped Qiu Qin.
After going to the countryside, I experienced some hardships. Now everyone is exhausted from going to work every day. Looking back, Jiang Guoqing is actually not that outstanding.
Especially, I am exhausted from work every day, wouldn’t it be better to just lie down and rest after I get home?
It's a problem to have to spend effort to help Jiang Guoqing with work. Luo Yutong also thinks that what Gu Wan said is right.
Girls, you should love yourself more. It is best to live a good life.
Jiang Guoqing looks tall and strong, but in fact he only thinks about being lazy while working every day and has been criticized by the brigade cadres several times.
Even Luo Yutong began to doubt her own aesthetic taste. Why did she think that this person was so good and worthy of her love for the rest of her life?
Because her feelings for Jiang Guoqing had diminished a lot, the awkwardness in Luo Yutong's heart disappeared, and her relationship with Zhou Weihong became much closer.
Although when they went offline together, Luo Yutong was the best friend of Gu Wan.
But now Gu Wan is very busy with work every day and lives in Gu's house, so the two of them have less contact.
It’s not that their feelings have faded or anything. Luo Yutong was too embarrassed to go to Gu’s house to eat every day, and gradually she started cooking more often at the educated youth’s home.
They helped each other cook dinner, chatting and laughing, which was quite pleasant.
But Chen Haodong’s mood was not so good.
The Gu family is getting better and better now. First, Gu Wan got a job, and she also found a temporary job for her second aunt.
Next, Gu Zhiqiang led the way to the mountains to look for mountain products and collect herbs, and they actually gained something. The key was to establish a connection with the provincial hospital.
Then the road was clear for both the commune and the brigade. This would become the brigade's sideline, which meant that several men in the old Gu family also had jobs.
Later, I heard that with the help of Qi Bin, who was staying at Gu's house, the two sons of Gu Lao San also went to the county town to work as temporary workers.
