The prosperous era of courtyard houses

Chapter 41, small gathering

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Weiguo went directly back to the factory. It was still working time, and it was not good to stay outside for too long, as it would be easy for others to take advantage of him.

Returning to the Security Section, the meeting was already quiet. Most of the people arrested yesterday had been taken away. Twenty-five ideological examinations and a pile of fines were left on the table.

After calling Zheng Shan over and asking him to hand over the ideological examination and the fine to the administrative clerk in Corey, the whole matter was over.

When he was free, Li Weiguo made a cup of tea and sat in the office touching fish for a long time. It was so relaxing.

At four in the afternoon, Li Weiguo ran to the kitchen in the first cafeteria and called Si Zhu out.

"Weiguo, what's going on?" Silly Zhu came out and asked directly.

Li Weiguo pulled Silly Zhu aside: "Brother Zhu, can we process ingredients in our factory?"

"Okay, just pay the canteen processing fee. Many leaders bring their own ingredients for dinners and let us cook them." Silly Zhu nodded.

"Okay, when you are free, help me cook a meal and treat people to dinner."

"Sure, no problem, everything is there."

Li Weiguo thought for a moment, clasped his fingers and said, "Five pounds of goose meat, half a duck, 3 pounds of pork belly, a rabbit, and 2 pounds of mutton. You see what side dishes you need. I will send them to you in a while. You can use them as you like."

"."

Good guy, you have made so many things, why don’t you invite the emperor to dinner? What year and year are you making such a large scale? Silly Zhu looked confused.

In fact, Li Weiguo just wanted to make a little more. In addition to using part for treating guests, he would save the rest for himself to eat later.

There is no way, my skills are not good, so I have to think of crooked tricks.

But it's okay to do it once or twice, but if it's done more often, people will be suspicious, and he still knows what's appropriate.

Silly Zhu was stunned for a while before he said: "No need for side dishes, we have them in the kitchen. When they are done, the kitchen conductor will count them for you."

"Okay, just wait, I'll come as soon as I can."

As he said this, Li Weiguo turned around and walked out. He didn't go far. He took out a basket from the space at the corner where there was no one around, and filled it with duck, goose, pork, mutton and rabbit meat.

Then he came back with the basket and gave it to Silly Zhu: "Brother Zhu, everything is here, I'll leave it to you."

After hearing this, Silly Zhu opened the lid and looked at it. He confirmed that there were a lot of things and gave a thumbs up: "Yes, brother, you are really powerful. If our kitchen didn't prepare a reception meal, we would easily run out of these things."

Then he picked up the basket and said, "Okay, leave it to me. I'll make sure everything is properly arranged for you."

"Hehe. Okay, thank you, Brother Zhu. Once everything is ready, just put it in an enamel basin. I'll take it all away. You can take half a catty of pork belly in there and cook it yourself. I'll give you and Yuyu an extra dish at night. .”

"No, no, no, that's inappropriate."

Li Weiguo waved his hand: "There's nothing inappropriate. That's it. I can't let you work in vain. Let's go. I'll come back later."

Almost an hour later, when Li Weiguo came back, the food was already ready.

An iron pot of stewed goose, a pot of braised duck, a pot of braised pork, a pot of mutton stir-fried with green onions, a pot of stir-fried rabbit meat, and a pot of twice-cooked pork, a total of six dishes, all full of color, flavor and flavor.

The cooks and vegetable washers in the kitchen were all drooling with greed.

He couldn't ask for help in vain, so he simply took a bowl and put out a portion of each dish to make up a bowl, leaving it for Silly Zhu and his group of kitchen workers.

Li Weiguo's move immediately won the favor of the entire kitchen. In the past, when a small stove was opened, the chef and the waiter who finished the cleaning could get some leftovers.

There’s no need to think about other people, and things aren’t divided enough.

I don't think I can help cook some dishes today and get some food, but I can't keep up with the abundance during the Chinese New Year.

Each of the dozen or so kitchen workers took their own lunch boxes, and each person got a portion. The portion was not large, and each person only got a few chopsticks of meat dishes.

The greedy young people ate it on the spot, while some people were reluctant to eat such good food, like Liu Lan, who closed the lunch box and put it in his bag, ready to take it back to his family.

I didn’t dare to delay after dividing the dishes, so I got off work immediately. I went to the conductor to pay the ticket and processing fee for the side dishes, then I carried two large baskets, put all the vegetables in with the basins, and walked away carrying the baskets on a pole. people. I found a place where no one was around and put all my things into the space.

At 6: in the evening, Li Weiguo.

Everything for dinner was ready, and Li Weiguo was setting out the dishes and chopsticks. Not long after, Zhou Can and the soldiers arrived.

Before anyone could get through the door, I heard the fat man yelling from afar: "Wei Guo, why don't you come out to pick me up? Your Masters Zhou and Zhao have brought you something good."

Li Weiguo heard the noise and quickly opened the door to welcome the guests.

At the door of the front yard, Zhou Can and Zhao Guobing had already walked in, their hands full of large and small bags.

There are many kinds of biscuits, cans, fruits, and Xifeng wine.

Li Weiguo hurriedly greeted him and said politely: "Oh, look at you guys, just come and bring anything else."

As he spoke, he snatched the things from their hands and quickly turned around and returned to the house, leaving the two people stunned.

Seeing his behavior, Zhao Guobing laughed dumbly: "I'll go. Do you think he is being polite or not?"

Zhou Can also laughed and said: "Hahaha, Brother Wei Guo is still the same as before. Hahaha..."

Zhao Guobing nodded and agreed: "Well, I have never seen such a shameless person, hahaha."

The two of them laughed and followed Li Weiguo into the house.

As soon as they entered the house, they were stunned.

On the dining table, there are stewed goose, braised duck, braised pork, twice-cooked pork, stir-fried mutton with green onions, stir-fried rabbit, stir-fried cabbage, tiger skin green pepper, plus a tomato and egg soup and a bowl of white flour steamed buns.

Eight dishes and one soup were all served on large plates, and the portions were generous. There were also two bottles of Xifeng on the table.

Zhou Can stared at his eyes and swallowed: "I'll go, Weiguo, you can't survive? You can't make three months' salary in just one meal, right?"

Zhao Guobing also nodded, stretched his neck, came to the dining table, and took a deep breath.

Li Weiguo laughed and said, "Hey, low-key, low-key home-cooked food."

Zhou Can rolled his eyes at Li Weiguo: "I'll get you, and I'll give you home-cooked food. Our director doesn't even dare to say that he can eat at this level during the Chinese New Year."

After saying that, Zhou Can and the two of them were not polite, went directly to the table, picked up the bowls and chopsticks and started eating.

Even if their family conditions are good, they may not be able to eat such old meat dishes during the Chinese New Year. The main reason is that the quantity is too large. Even if you have connections during the Chinese New Year, you may not be able to get so much.

The two of them were like reincarnated ghosts who died of starvation. They didn't say anything and just kept working hard. Li Weiguo was also speechless. After all, a person whose family had a food supply and a person who worked in the post office seemed like he had never eaten before.

He shrugged and sat down to eat with them.

After eating for a full hour, Zhou and Can stopped for a while.

After eating, the real show begins. How can we not drink when we meet friends again?

Don't say anything, just drink a cup of Xifeng each to rinse your mouth.

After drinking, start recalling the past and looking forward to the future.

The three young men chatted and ate, and drank until nine o'clock in the evening before the banquet ended. In the end, neither Zhou Can nor Zhao Guobing could stand firm. Li Weiguo is fine. His body has been strengthened and he can drink three to five kilograms of wine. Even if it doesn't work, he still has room and he won't be afraid of drinking.

The three of them, Li Weiguo, enjoyed eating and drinking, but the neighbors in the front yard were having a hard time.

Smelling the aroma of wine, coriander and coriander, adults and children all drooled there.

The adults were okay and could restrain their desires, but the children couldn't. They clamored for meat and cried non-stop, and finally had a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots.

Looking at the two uncles lying unconscious on the table, it was impossible to send them back, so we might as well let them sleep at home for the night.

Li Weiguo took them one by one and carried them to the bed where he used to sleep. He helped them take off their clothes and shoes, covered them with quilts and left them alone.

After returning to the living room and clearing away the things on the table, Li Weiguo also got into his bed.
