In front of the broken house, Manager Dai knocked on the door: "Is anyone there? Excuse me, is anyone there?"

"Who is it?" An old voice came from inside.

"Is it Grandpa Qin? I'm the grandson of Lao Dai, the old Dai who started the fire." Manager Dai introduced again, "Grandpa Qin is the long-term worker here. After the bad elements such as capitalists and landlords are sent down, the long-term workers will no longer exist. So no one cares about him living here, and he’s a loner.”

"I see."

"It's Lao Dai's grandson, come in." Grandpa Qin came out with a cane, "In a blink of an eye, you are so old, what's the matter? You came all the way here?"

Manager Dai told the story: "I just want some casserole pots and casserole pots that you have left unused here."

"Oh, that's a little thing, come and get it. But it's not much. After the place was sealed back then, things were smashed, and that kind of thing broke when you smashed it hard." Grandpa Qin said, "Here What?" He led them to a warehouse.There are beds and the like in the warehouse. It seems that Grandpa Qin usually sleeps here.

There are also grains such as sweet potatoes next to it.

"Thank you." Gu Xi said, "Can I get some more?"

"Take it, it's useless to put it here."

Gu Xi took three sand pots, not the small ones, but the big ones, which were used by people to boil water in the past, and each pot has about one thermos.Four more casseroles were taken, and the casseroles had lids. Gu Xi said, "That's all for me, thank you."I didn't bring anything today, I'll bring it to you next time. "

"No, they are all useless things, not worth anything." Grandpa Qin waved his hand.

When Gu Xi returned to Lijia Village, it was four o'clock in the afternoon and found that Xiao Chengtu was not at home.Gu Xi put the casserole and casserole into the kitchen, and went to the field to find Li Tie: "Uncle Li, I'm here to ask you something."

"Patriotic, what's the matter?" Li Tie asked.

"You are the number one builder of the house, can you also build the stove in the kitchen?" Gu Xi asked.

"Yes, but now everyone eats in the big dining hall, and the kitchen stove is useless to build."

"You can come to my house after dinner, and I will talk to you in detail."

"Hey, okay."

When Gu Xi returned home again, he found that Xiao Chengtu was already at home.Seeing Gu Xi, Xiao Chengtu said, "Dad, you are back."

"Well, where did you go to play?" Seeing that his pants were a little dusty, Gu Xicai asked.

"I went to play with Brother Maodan."

For dinner, the father and son went to the big cafeteria to eat pickled vegetable noodles. They were used to the food made by Gu Xi. Xiao Chengtu didn't like the food in the cafeteria that had no craftsmanship and no ingredients.But he was still obedient and ate slowly, bite by bite.

Not to mention Xiao Chengtu, even Gu Xi didn't like this kind of food either.

The food in the cafeteria is full. The father and son don't like it, but others like it very much.

After dinner, Li Tie came.

"Uncle Tie, I just want to build a small stove next to the big stove, and put the casserole and casserole on it."

"It's like a coal stove, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's like a coal stove."

"It's okay to rebuild it, but the small stove doesn't have a chimney pipe. The big stove here has two pot mouths. You can just modify one of them, and just modify the inner pot mouth."

"How to modify?"

"It's very convenient. You don't need to change anything else, just shrink the mouth of the pot to a size that can be used by both casserole pots and casserole pots."

"How long will that take?"

"Quick, don't use it for an hour, use yellow mud."

"Then...can I fix it tonight?" Gu Xi said, opening the kitchen cabinet, and took out a steaming bowl of brown sugar buns, with 4 inside.

Li Tie smiled: "Okay, I'll dig the yellow mud and fix it for you while it's still bright."

"Thank you, Uncle Tie." Gu Xi took a basket and put the brown sugar buns into the basket.

At eight o'clock, it was over: "It's hot now, and it can be used in three days."

"Okay, I see."

In other words, only cold water can be used for these two days.Gu Xi didn't care, but since Xiao Chengtu was young, Gu Xi didn't let him take a bath, and only let him wipe his body.

The next day, Gu Xi rode his bicycle to find Grandpa Qin, and brought Xiao Chengtu with him.He gave Grandpa Qin a few steamed buns. Manager Dai was here yesterday, so it was inconvenient for him to take them out.

"Sit down and I'll make tea for you."

"You don't have to be so polite." Gu Xi said.

"It's you who are being polite, young man." Grandpa Qin said with a smile, "It's useless for me to keep a few broken sand pots here, and it's worth your special trip to deliver things."

When Grandpa Qin was making tea, Gu Xi saw that he actually used an aluminum teapot, a silver-white aluminum teapot. Gu Xi was very surprised: "Grandpa Qin, where did you get this aluminum teapot? I asked Brother Dai to help me yesterday." Inquire about it."

"This? It used to be used to boil water here, but after the founding of New China, it was no longer popular. Do you want it? I have a lot here." Grandpa Qin said, "They were used to boil water in the past. Use it." As Grandpa Qin said, he sorted out three more aluminum teapots.

Gu Xi looked, except for the dust, the things were still new.

"At that time, the master and the others were sent down, and all the previous things here were taken away. No one wanted such worthless things, so I put them away." Grandpa Qin said.

"Thank you, Grandpa Qin. I'm short of a teapot that can boil water. You've helped me a lot."

"You are very kind, young man."

After sitting for a while, Gu Xi left with the aluminum teapot.Passing by the county seat, I went to the police station and asked Zhang Jianjun to ask about the iron pot.When Gu Xi returned home with his son, there were two gods sitting in front of the house, one big and one small.When Gu Xi saw them, he was taken aback for a moment, and almost couldn't react: "You...Didn't you hurt your foot? Why did you come here? Don't you want to train for a year or two? You came here by bicycle?" Thinking of this possibility, Gu Xi couldn't help frowning.You must know that foot injuries have a great impact on soldiers.

Seeing him concerned about his nervousness, Fan Xuezhi twitched his mouth: "I have recovered from my foot injury, and I have been recuperating for a year or two because I can't participate in army training. Army training is different from ordinary sports. And I didn't come here by bicycle." , don’t worry, my dad’s guard drove me here in the army’s car.”

"..." The troop's car is indeed remarkable.

Gu Xi walked into the kitchen with three aluminum teapots, thought of something, and turned around: "The iron pots in our countryside are gone, and you don't have anything to eat when you come today. The canteen in the village only serves villagers. If you eat it, you can only save it from my food."

"..." Fan Xuezhi, who came here for dinner, was in a daze!

The little fat man who came here for dinner is stupid and doesn't understand!

"Do you want to eat the food I saved?" Gu Xi asked.

"Then do you have enough to eat?" Fan Xuezhi asked back.

It means: he wants to eat the food saved by Mr. Li.

"Not enough to eat." Gu Xi replied.

Fan Xuezhi's face froze for a moment, he looked at Gu Xi with his dark eyes, and he pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.Da Zhizhi felt very bitter, he finally recovered from his foot injury, and came to see his wife, but she didn't want to see him.

What about swollen?

what to do?Da Zhizhi fumbled in his trouser pocket, took out a stack of banknotes, and stuffed them into Gu Xi's hands, and then... looked at Gu Xi with aggrieved eyes: "Go to a state-run restaurant?" He cautiously suggested.

"Shall I take you by bike?" Gu Xi asked.

"En." Da Zhizhi nodded.

"What about them?" Gu Xi asked again.

"Buy buns and bring them back to eat." Dazhi replied naturally.

Gu Xi glanced at him, this man is really shameless.

"I have a solution." Da Zhizhi said, "You take me back by bike and bring me the iron pot at home."

Gu Xi's eyes lit up: "Is it okay?"

Seeing the light in his eyes, Fan Xuezhi felt that he had done the right thing: "Yes."

So, the two hurriedly rode to the military family compound, and the two children stayed at home.They arrived at the family compound of the army at this point, Captain Fan and Mother Fan were not at home, and Fan Xuezhi took the blame away as a matter of course.There was only one pot in their house, but Gu Xi, who hadn't entered the kitchen, didn't know.

When Captain Fan and Mother Fan returned home, they were stunned when they saw the stove without an iron pot.

But after inquiring, only Fan Xuezhi and Mr. Li have been back.

"Why did they take the pot away?" Mother Fan asked.

Head Fan thought for a while: "Maybe it has something to do with the large-scale steelmaking. The higher-ups hope that our country's weapons can surpass those of other countries, so it strongly recommends the large-scale steelmaking. I heard that all the iron pots and other iron-related things in ordinary people's homes have been confiscated. .”

Mother Fan thought for a while: "Then let's go to the cafeteria to eat."

"Ah."

"You said your son will bring back the iron pot when he comes back?" Mother Fan asked again.

Head Fan thought for a while: "Only in one situation."

"Under what circumstances? Don't be tricky."

"Wait until your cooking skills are better than that Teacher Li."

Mother Fan was a little desperate.

Fan Xuezhi didn't think there was anything wrong with stealing the iron pot from home, especially seeing his wife happy holding the iron pot, he once again admired his extremely clever mind.So he asked cautiously: "Daughter-in-law, can we make lunch?"

"It's too late for cooking. Let's eat steamed buns and drink soup. I'll cook corn soup for you."

"New dishes?" He hadn't heard the name before.

"I cooked it for Xiao Chengtu once before."

"Oh." Fan Xuezhi responded, and after not seeing Gu Xi's response for a long time, he said again, "Can we discuss something?"

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows.

Fan Xuezhi said innocently: "You have new dishes in the future, can you let me eat first?"

Gu Xi sent him three words: "You are sick."

"..."

"You go to light the fire."

"Oh."

Corn flour soup, ingredients: diced bacon, diced potatoes, diced winter melon

Staple food: steamed buns with cabbage rolls.

Fan Xuezhi ate 5 steamed cabbage rolls, Fatty ate 3, Chengtu ate 3, and Gu Xi ate 3.

After a good meal, Fan Xuezhi rested on Gu Xi's bed. Gu Xi sorted out the money and tickets that Fan Xuezhi gave just now. There were 470 yuan, 8 meat tickets, 8 industrial tickets, and 120 catties of food tickets. The main thing was that the meat tickets were this month's.
