Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Cui Dake saw that most people in the cafeteria had arrived, so he stood up and said with a loud speaker:

"Dear workers, under the leadership of Director Li, our factory's "Recalling the Bitterness" education has achieved great results.

However, there are still many comrades who are not ideologically conscious enough and are resistant to this bitter memory meal. For this reason, Director Li came to the cafeteria today to eat this bitter memory meal with the comrades. Next, we would like to invite Director Li to say a few words! "

After Cui Dake finished speaking, he handed the loudspeaker to Li Huaide in a servile manner and stepped aside.

Li Huaide's prestige is still very high.

As soon as he stood up, the workers who were whispering to each other immediately quieted down.

"Comrades, I know this bitter memory meal is not tasty. Because I have eaten it myself!

But comrades, you must know why we eat this bitterness-recalling rice! It is to remember the hard days in the past. Only after remembering the bitterness can we think of the sweetness!

Today, I and all the leaders in the factory are standing here to set an example and eat this bitter memory meal! All of us must finish it and eat it cleanly! "

Li Huaide does have some talent for acting, and he delivered this speech quite well.

After he finished speaking, he winked at Cui Dake.

"I'll go get the wild vegetable dumplings now!"

Cui Dake said this and ran to the kitchen.

As soon as Cui Dake arrived at the kitchen, he asked:

"Master He, where are Director Li and his team's vegetable dumplings?"

Sha Zhu was busy at the moment, he pointed at the steamers on the steamer and said:

"They're all steamed. Those are the baskets."

Cui Dake walked over, opened it, picked one up, checked it, and ate one himself to make sure it was ok. Then he glanced at the people in the kitchen and said to Fatty and Liu Lan:

"Then you two help me carry it out."

Liu Lan remembered Wang Jianjun's instructions and immediately refused:

"Director Cui, we are all busy in the kitchen. Besides, I am a woman and I don't have as much strength as you men."

Cui Da didn't think much about it, and simply carried the steamer out with the fat man.

After placing the steamer on the table, the workers from the steel mill gathered around to see if Li Huaide really wanted to eat the steamed bread.

Wang Jianjun also squeezed to the front row and used my scan to replace the prince with a cat.

Cui Dake probably never imagined that the wild vegetable dumplings he had just confirmed had been replaced by someone.

He even confirmed the look with Li Huaide with great pride.

Li Huaide, who received the signal, stepped forward and opened the steamer.

Looking at the steaming wild vegetable dumplings on the steamer, Li Huaide couldn't help but sigh that Sha Zhu's cooking skills were amazing.

These wild vegetable dumplings are made exactly the same as the ones the workers eat.

"Come on, come on, two wild vegetable dumplings for each person. Eat them all, no waste!"

Li Huaide gave instructions to the leaders behind him.

The factory leaders who received the news in advance didn't think much about it and just took two each.

At the same time, I pinched it to see if it was hard.

It was only once they started that they realized something was wrong.

Why are these wild vegetable dumplings so hard?

Wasn’t it agreed that it was specially processed by Shazhu?

Li Huaide didn't pay much attention to it because of his trust in Cui Dake.

He held the wild vegetable dumplings and said to the workers with a smile:

"Today, I, Li Huaide, will take the lead and give you a demonstration!"

As he spoke, he picked up the wild vegetable dumpling and took a bite.

His expression froze after just one bite.

Li Huaide didn't know what words to use to describe the taste and texture of the wild vegetable dumplings.

He claims to be someone who knows how to eat.

But the wild vegetable dumpling in his hand refreshed his perception of how unpalatable it was.

How about the taste?

It was like a pair of unwashed socks that had been sitting there for a few days, with a strong fishy smell. Coupled with the rough, dry texture, it was hard to imagine that this thing was food.

Just one bite made Li Huaide give up thinking.

Only the mouth was left to chew instinctively.

But he was reluctant to swallow it.

Li Huaide's situation is still considered good. The leaders of other steel rolling mills often have the same expression.

Looking at the expressions of several factory leaders, the workers were also a little puzzled.

They have also eaten these wild vegetable dumplings.

It's unpalatable, but not that exaggerated.

Cui Dake said that he got it last. He was secretly happy when he saw the expressions of Li Huaide and others.

Director Li and his team are really good at acting.

Until he picked up the wild vegetable dumpling in his hand and took a bite, he was dumbfounded.

Is this... is this really for human consumption?

Cui Dake broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

It's over, it's over now.

I messed up Director Li's job.

But how could this happen? I clearly checked the wild vegetable dumplings and even ate one.

How come it turned into this thing after I took it out?

Who switched the package? !

Could it be the fat guy from before?

Feeling Li Huaide's murderous eyes, Cui Dake became panicked.

He really wanted to explain that this had nothing to do with him.

But he didn't dare to say anything now. He could only silently gnaw on the unknown object called wild vegetable dumpling in his hand.

Li Huaide and the other leaders present were extremely unwilling.

But now he could only bite the bullet and finish the wild vegetable dumpling in his hand.

And he ate it all without leaving a single bite.

After all, that’s what Li Huaide just said.

The two wild vegetable dumplings must be eaten up and not wasted.

The people at the steel rolling mill didn't know the truth, and when they saw Li Huaide actually finish eating the wild vegetable dumplings, their resentment subsided a lot.

It is said that the problem is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of distribution of wealth.

If the leader eats the same thing as you, then this matter won’t be so hard to accept.

"Hello... comrades... Today I, Li Huaide, have set an example here. I also hope that comrades will make persistent efforts and continue to... carry forward the spirit of hard struggle..."

Li Huaide suppressed his nausea and said a few words before returning to his office.

Cui Dake followed Li Huaide to his office dejectedly.

Although Li Huaide didn't call him, he had to learn to apologize.

Otherwise, if his leader holds a grudge against him, his future will be over.

Sure enough, as soon as Cui Dake entered Li Huaide’s office, he was criticized by Li Huaide.

"What do you do for a living, Cui Dake? You can't even do a small thing!"

"Director Li, this is really not my fault! I just went to the kitchen to check it myself, and I ate a wild vegetable dumpling, and there is nothing wrong with it!

That’s right! It was that fat guy! It must be that fat guy! He and I were the ones who carried the steamer out together. If anyone tampered with it, it must have been that fat guy!”

"Get lost! Do you really think I'm blind? You're a guy who can't do anything good but always makes things difficult. I..."

As Li Huaide was cursing, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

"me.."

"Director Li! Director Li, what's wrong with you?"

Cui Dake noticed that something was wrong with Li Huaide, so he stepped forward and asked with concern.
