Chapter 431 Everyone is a friend
After chatting, Song Xi learned that Zhang Lianxin used to be a primary school teacher, but later she became ill and had to give up her job.
Song Xi's heart immediately began to calculate.
Ping’an Village Primary School is short of teachers, it would be great if there is an experienced teacher.
I just don’t know if Zhang Lian is willing to teach in Ping’an Village Primary School, but Qian Weimin must be informed about this matter.
Thinking of this, Song Xi said to Zhou Yi, "Brother Yi, please go to the next door and call Aunt Li, and ask her to call Uncle Qian and Aunt Zhuhua for me, and say that I have something to tell them."
Zhou Yi injured his leg. It would be a waste of time to find Qian Weimin on crutches, and Song Xi had to greet guests at home, so he had to ask Aunt Li next door for help.
Let Aunt Li come over for dinner at noon, and thank her well.
"Okay." Zhou Yi slightly nodded at Zhao Jun's family, got up and went out on crutches. Aunt Li's house was next door, and it only took a minute or two for Zhou Yi to walk slowly, so he came back soon.
"Brother Yi, you chat with Brother Zhao." Song Xi winked at Zhou Yi, got up and went to the stove house, and waited until the ingredients for lunch were ready, and then came to the main room and said to everyone, "Brother Zhao , Sister-in-law, don’t rush back, have lunch at home with simple tea and light meals, I hope Brother Zhao and sister-in-law don’t feel disgusted!”
"Comrade Song, you are really too polite." Zhao Jun said embarrassedly. He was about to say that he would go back later. He didn't expect Song Xi to keep them for dinner, but they didn't have any rations. bring.
It’s not easy for every family. It’s embarrassing for their family of five to eat here!
"How embarrassing this is!"
"It's okay, Brother Zhao, as long as you don't dislike the simple food in our mountains." At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Song Xi hurriedly got up and went to open the door. Qian Weimin, Wu Zhuhua and Aunt Li were all standing outside the door.
Song Xi hurriedly invited, "Uncle Qian, Aunt Zhuhua, Aunt Li, come in quickly, we are all having lunch at home today!"
"Xiaoxi, you asked us to come over for dinner, is there something wrong?" Wu Zhuhua asked in confusion.
"I have friends coming to pay New Year's greetings, so I want to ask some elders to help greet the guests." Song Xi closed the courtyard door and explained as he walked, "Sister-in-law used to be a primary school teacher in the city, so I really want to invite her to come. We are in Ping'an Village Elementary School, so we want Uncle Qian to come over to understand and see how to solve this matter."
Qian Weimin nodded clearly, "Okay, got it."
He already knew Song Xi's intentions, and he had worked with Song Xi for several years, so there was a tacit understanding.
Song Xi led a few people in, and introduced Zhao Jun and Zhang Lianxin, "Brother Zhao, sister-in-law, this is Qian Weimin, the captain of our team, this is Wu Zhuhua, the women's director, and this is Aunt Li next door. Our relationship is very good, like a family, I called them over just to let everyone have a meal together."
Zhao Jun stood up hurriedly, and stretched out his hand to Qian Weimin, "Hello, captain, my name is Zhao Jun, and I am a postman. This is my wife, Zhang Lianxin, and my three children, Zhao Xiangqian, Zhao Xiangyuan and Zhao Xiangru."
"Hello, Comrade Zhao. Welcome to our Ping'an Village as a guest." Qian Weimin warmly reached out and shook Zhao Jun's hand, and then said, "Everyone sit down, Zhuhua, you can help Teacher Song cook in a while. Don't let Teacher Song work alone."
Wu Zhuhua nodded, "Okay."
Even if Qian Weimin didn't say anything, she would still help out. With so many people coming to eat, how could Song Xi be allowed to cook alone? It would be too tiring!
And Zhang Lianxin raised her brows in surprise when she heard the team leader call Song Xi Teacher Song. She didn't expect Song Xi to be a teacher too!
Before, Song Xi brought a lot of ingredients and some cooked food from the supermarket, so there was no need for special trouble when cooking at noon. Some of them can be heated directly or returned to the pot.
Braised trotters, stewed fat sausage, shredded chicken, spicy crab, steamed crab, pickled fish, all from the supermarket, just heat it up.
If there are only her and Zhou Yi in the house, there is no need to go to the outside in advance, and naturally it will not be cold.
In addition, Song Xi made stewed potatoes with pork belly, spicy diced rabbit, fried pork with shredded cabbage, radish rib soup, fried bacon with green onion leaves, fried cabbage, cold lettuce, and fried mushrooms.
Song Xi and Wu Zhuhua put dishes on the table together and greeted everyone to eat.
Zhao Jun's family couldn't help swallowing when they saw the table full of dishes. They didn't expect the conditions in the mountains to be so good. There are meat, fish and rabbits. There are only two meat dishes, meat and chicken!
Afraid that the people in the city would think too much, Qian Weimin said, "Mr. Song, the pork in your house is the wild pork that was hunted in the village a few days before the Chinese New Year, right?"
Song Xi didn't think much, nodded, "Yes!"
"I didn't expect that your family still has it! Others have almost enough food." Qian Weimin said.
Song Xi thought about it, this is impossible, the family has more than 70 catties, how could it be possible to finish eating so quickly?
When she glanced at the surprised Zhao Jun's family, Song Xi understood what Qian Weimin meant. She nodded, "That's right, since our family is small, we will naturally eat less. Brother Zhao and sister-in-law came early. If it's a few days later, our family may have finished eating."
"Brother Zhao, sister-in-law, you can eat it boldly. There is no money or tickets for these meats. A few days before the New Year, the village arranged for young and middle-aged men to go hunting in the mountains, and they got something. Every household got some wild pork, fish and hares, too. The crabs were distributed in the village, and we caught the crabs ourselves." Afraid that Zhao Jun and Zhang Lianxin would not dare to move their chopsticks, Song Xi explained.
To be honest, for Song Xi, today's meal really didn't cost a lot of money. She raised the fish, crabs and hares by herself, so she didn't spend any money. Vegetables are picked from the vegetable garden.
Only shredded chicken and fresh pork belly are modern products from the supermarket. They really didn’t cost much, but others don’t know. Eat so much meat in one meal.
"Comrade Song Xi, I don't even know what to say, thank you so much." Zhang Lianxin's cheeks flushed slightly, she felt that she really took advantage of it today, she didn't bring anything, and she could eat Such a sumptuous meal, she took her husband and children back to her natal home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and she didn't get such treatment!
"Sister-in-law, we are all friends. If you say something like this, you will be out of touch. I don't know what you like to eat, so I won't pick it up for you. You pick it up yourself. Eat it quickly. It's cold now and it's meaty. Things won't taste good when they're cold," Song Xi urged.
