Rebirth in Prosperous Era

Chapter 44 It’s already Chinese New Year!

Li Wenkui walked out of the yard, and there were villagers on the road holding bowls and chopsticks. Everyone's face was beaming, as if they were going to a banquet.

The child banged on the dishes and chopsticks and scurried back and forth in the crowd, followed by the chasing parents, scolding, more like pampering.

"The village department is killing pigs this morning. There will be pork to eat later."

"Yao Weiguo's cooking skills are pretty good, and he controls the heat well. I rarely eat the dishes he cooks."

"I was also present when the pig was being killed. I have been thinking about a question. Didn't the village lose a pig? If pigs were killed today, do you think all the pigs in the pig house belong to our village now?"

"This is the best. We can also enjoy the treatment of landlords for once."

"Wang Fox, what are you talking about? You are talking nonsense!"

"Bah, look at my mouth, haha, I'm talking about having pork to eat every day from now on, haha."

"Now that I'm at work, do I still count my work points?"

"I just heard rumors that work points must be recorded. It's probably like this. Each meal is rationed for each size and child, and the work points are calculated into corresponding grains."

"Well, what if it's not enough?"

The villagers had great expectations for the big canteen. Li Wenkui mingled in the crowd and listened to the villagers' discussions and various speculations.

It also shows that this time the commune is not fully prepared. At least the corresponding standards should be released, such as how much an adult eats in one meal and how to convert work points, so that everyone can at least have a sense of the situation.

But it is enough to give village cadres a headache. This is just about food, and there are many other problems such as clothing and housing.

The first big problem that Li Wenkui felt was that after arriving outside the village headquarters, he saw wooden tables inside, both square and round. They were really like banquets, which was really surprising.

I originally thought that it would be like cooking in the school cafeteria, where everyone would eat from their own bowls and no one would be in the way of anyone else. But now it looks like this is not the case!

Isn’t this the rhythm of competing for food and rice?

The village cadres don’t think that everyone is a modest gentleman, so they just give in. Now they are in a state of not having enough to eat, especially meat. It is an occasional treat during the Chinese New Year. If you really see the pork, don’t grab it. It's weird, it's even possible to fight.

I hope this is the first time today to have a meal, so as to create an atmosphere and liveliness, otherwise this big canteen will not be able to work for two days, and everyone will be busy resolving meal disputes.

There is a table at the entrance of the village headquarters. The security team personnel direct everyone to line up and explain related matters. There are ten people per table. Children under ten years old are not allowed to occupy a seat alone and are not allowed to fight for it.

There was someone guarding the door, and 20 to 30 people entered in batches. Those who did not enter had to wait for the next batch. There must have been instructions. As the team entered the large playground, there were roughly fifty tables, and the scene was quite spectacular.

"Eldest brother, second brother, father and mother, come here quickly, I've got a good place for you."

The younger sister and Fan Jingqiu were already at a table near the middle. They must have come in with privileges. Li Wenkui was a little embarrassed. Fan Jingqiu would not lift the table later.

His mother held her little sister in her arms. Li Wenkui chose to sit down opposite Fan Jingqiu. It was better to stay far away. Zhao Qingshan sat on his left. On the right was Sun Guoqiang, his mother and his sister. Next to him was Yao Zhiliang. He insisted on joining a table, and the table was full, with a total of twelve people, including two children.

"Second brother, Sister Jingqiu said she won't hit you, so don't be afraid. I've already made an agreement with her."

"Damn boy, I almost forgot about this if I didn't mention it. Jingqiu, don't worry, call him back. I'll help you take care of him when you get home."

<divclass="contentadv">The younger sister is not willing to mention anything. She has already endured Fan Jingqiu's death gaze, and her mother cheered him up, so the eldest sister also stood on Fan Jingqiu's side.

Sun Guoqiang and Yao Zhiliang both looked over strangely, wondering what happened and why the gossipy expressions smelled like village aunts.

I can only deal with it by hesitating, and imitate the children to knock the dishes and chopsticks from time to time to relieve the embarrassment. Don't offend the other person at this time, otherwise the meal may not be finished.

He was not so polite to his two good friends. He glared back angrily, making Sun Guoqiang look disappointed and told him about meeting Sun Guosheng and Niu Jiefang under the archway.

"By the way, I just met Uncle Guosheng and asked you to go to the machinery factory at 7pm. I said I had something to discuss with you."

I met two people just now. Maybe the matter wasn't very important, so I didn't pay attention. I nodded to show that I understood.

As more and more people entered, the excitement grew. Some were talking loudly, and some were changing places to sit with acquaintances or relatives.

Village cadres walked out of the conference room one after another, with Fan Yunzhang taking the lead, followed by Yao Weimin and others. This was the first day after the new team was established, and Fan Yunzhang was the first to speak.

"Every member of the commune, please take your seats. Today is an important day for our Dongfang Commune Daming Production Team. We have stepped into a new era. From today on, everyone will work and eat together.

Our good days will also start from today. As long as I believe in the leadership of the great man, the country and the government, my days will become more and more prosperous. "

"We were deeply encouraged by what the party secretary said. He got to the point and everyone applauded."

"Crack!!"

Accountant Ye Wenming then flattered Fan Yunzhang, and took the lead in clapping his hands desperately, thinking that he was not strong enough, and his expression looked like he wanted to produce a cymbal effect, which led the villagers below to continue to applaud.

Li Wenkui curled his lips. Perhaps it was due to the various social beatings before his rebirth that almost made Ye Mingwen vomit. Such licking was not a good thing!

"Okay, I won't delay everyone's meal. The relevant details for the afternoon will be posted on the bulletin board in the village.

Let me let the village accountant Lao Ye tell you some of the standards for eating. "

It seems like this licking is still useful!

This is the most appropriate time for the new director to come out and establish his authority in front of the villagers. Now that Ye Wenming has taken away his job and limelight, Yao Weimin's life is not easy!

There was even more worry in my heart. We were about to face a difficult period of three years. It was more likely that the disaster would not defeat Zhuangzi, but it would fall apart internally first. This is the rule!

"One steamed bun and one steamed bun for adults, and half a steamed bun for children. This is the arrangement for today's morning.

From now on, we will temporarily ration one steamed bun and two steamed buns per day for adults and two small-sized steamed buns for children.

Okay, let’s eat!Lao Yao, let’s serve! "

This ration is quite reasonable. Don’t underestimate the portion of a steamed bun now. The size is at least twice what it would be a few decades later. I don’t know how much surplus food there is in the village. Simply eating white-flour steamed buns will quickly run out of food.

The enthusiasm of the villagers was ignited. In their own homes, it would be nice to have steamed buns. Usually they are served with wild vegetables and stick noodles. Steamed buns are rare even during the Chinese New Year. Now they have suddenly jumped to steamed buns, which is already the Chinese New Year.
