At noon, the farm workers got off work nearly an hour later than usual, and everyone was cursing.

"What the hell is going on? They got off work so late today. What's wrong with Zhu Youming, the logistics chief? The canteen can't control it, so forget it!"

"We worked an extra hour this morning, but we have to work a full hour in the afternoon, right? Isn't this bullying us frontline workers?"

"Yes, yes"

The crowd who were returning from work were walking towards the canteen in groups of three or four, and started cursing.

"Hahaha, you bunch of ungrateful bastards. I heard that the new Director Li went to hunt a wild boar this morning, and the canteen worked overtime to prepare it. They cooked meat and potatoes for lunch, so we were an hour late!" After the man said this, he ran away as if someone was chasing him.

"What, we're having stewed meat in the cafeteria for lunch?" A big question mark appeared in everyone's head.

Some of the smart ones had already started running with their lunch boxes. The crowd suddenly became chaotic and everyone sprinted a hundred meters towards the cafeteria.

There’s nothing you can do about it. Those who arrive first will definitely get to eat the fat, while those who arrive later can only eat the bones.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, they were dumbfounded.

Li Guohua and Zhao Yunlong were seen wearing aprons and with a large table in front of them. On the table were two oversized enamel basins, which were full of food, but one contained more fat and the other contained more lean meat.

Waves of meat aroma wafted in the wind, and everyone felt even hungrier.

It turned out that this pig Li Guohua did not ask the farm for money, but asked to serve food himself. Dong Anguo agreed after a little thought. As for Zhu Youming, he almost hugged Li Guohua's thigh and called him master.

"Look, look, the big fat meat just out of the pot, shiny with oil, fat and big ears, it's so delicious, mouth-watering, popular, tasty and mouth-watering!" Zhao Yunlong knocked on the edge of the basin with a big spoon and shouted to the crowd.

He had just been very impressive that morning, and everyone had heard of him and knew that he was a deputy section chief.

Everyone lined up in front of him to get their food. No one dared to be picky, and no one dared to be picky.

The meals on the farm clearly state what to eat. This meat was obviously unplanned, and it wasn't harvested by the farm staff, so it was good to have something to eat.

Finally it was a girl's turn. She stepped forward cautiously and said, "Comrade, I want to eat meat!"

She hadn't eaten meat for a long time and was really craving for it.

"Well, please come in!" Zhao Yunlong glanced at Li Guohua and said.

The big spoon in his hand drew an arc and swept across the basin, scooping up three or four potatoes and two pieces of lean meat and covering them in the girl's lunch box.

"Thank you Director Li, thank you Section Chief Zhao!" The girl was very happy after getting the meat, and said with a sense of inspiration.

Just as she was about to leave with her lunch box, someone called her.

"Wait a minute!" Li Guohua shouted.

He picked up a big spoon, scooped a full spoonful of meat from the bowl in front of him and put it into the girl's lunch box. There was so much meat that it almost overflowed. The girl used her hand to block it from falling out.

Behind the girl was a young man who immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Thank you, Director Li, thank you, Section Chief Zhao!"

"Wow!"

Another full spoonful of meat!

The crowd was in an uproar. Was this a signal to eat the fat?

Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Especially those who had already ordered the food, they regretted it so much that their intestines turned green.

Soon it was the turn of the farming team. Guo Cheng ran over with a big smile on his face, thinking that he was lucky that he hadn't offended the two uncles. They were really too arrogant. How long would it take to finish such a big pot of meat?

"Where are the others?" Li Guohua asked after giving him a lunch box full of meat.

The team was almost empty and he hadn't even noticed Guo Xianrong and the others.

"Well, the farm has rules. They all made mistakes, so they can only eat the worst food!" Guo Cheng said honestly.

"What a stupid rule. We're all doing physical work together, why should we eat the worst food? Call them over, otherwise no one should eat!" Zhao Yunlong shouted.

"Okay, okay!" Guo Cheng nodded.

He was just an executor and had no way to decide these things. Since Li Guohua was willing to give it, he didn't want to care so much. Didn't he see that the logistics chief Zhu Youming didn't say anything?

Not long after, Guo Chengchu, Guo Xianrong and a few others came over with lunch boxes that they had licked clean.

"Guohua, my good brother, give me more broth!" Qian Xinmin's voice trembled when he saw the greasy potatoes and pork.

It’s been a long time. It seems like I haven’t smelled meat for half a year.

"Old Qian, you are too weak. You'd better wait a few days!" Li Guohua said.

He didn't give him too much, mainly some potatoes and lean meat. He hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and suddenly eating too much greasy food would be unbearable for the body.

"Hey, hey! I'll listen to you. With you here, I feel more at ease!" Qian Xinmin said with emotion, with crystal eyes.

He also knew how serious it was, so he didn't ask for more broth. He was just too hungry.

"Guohua, give me more potatoes and bones!"

Guo Xianrong's requirements are different. Recently he has been feeling sore in his back and waist and thinks it is osteoporosis. So he has to eat more bones, so he should eat what he needs to replenish his body.

The situation was similar for the others. Whether they were people he knew or not, Li Guohua basically met their requirements.

"Eat slowly, there's more after you finish!" Li Guohua shouted to everyone.

Seeing the way Guo Xianrong and others ate, Li Guohua could only smile bitterly. It seemed that he had to continue working as the transport team leader.

In a room in the cafeteria, Dong Anguo was having lunch with a group of people, most of whom were farm managers.

He saw everything Li Guohua did and knew what Li Guohua meant.

"Director, do you want some?" A farm cadre saw Li Guohua beating meat for Guo Xianrong and pointed and asked.

This was clearly going against his superiors, and he was worried that something might happen.

"Old He, why do you care so much? This man works hard every day and doesn't eat well. Who can stand it?" Zhang Zhijun said to the cadre who raised the objection, eating a piece of fat meat at a time.

"Our farm hands over so much grain every year. If we want to eat some meat, we have to find a way ourselves. It's a joke! Besides, these people are all skinny. If anything happens, they will cause trouble for us!" Zhang Youcai followed.

"As long as there is meat to eat and people are still on the farm, we are doing nothing wrong!"

"Everyone has friends and relatives, and everyone has ups and downs. It's better not to offend people."

"That's right, we are the ones who do the dirty work. We can't please anyone, so why bother with so much!"

Zhang Youcai's words touched the hearts of everyone present, and they all expressed their agreement.

"Let's eat. We didn't give the meat. We just strictly followed the orders from our superiors!" Dong Anguo said to everyone.

He is just a small figure, why should he charge into battle? Maybe he will have to stay on the farm for the rest of his life. Forget it, it is better not to get involved in this muddy water.
