The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 236 Getting better and better
There is a saying in Jichun City that a good girl should not marry only a film.

This shows how unpopular optical film is.

But in the eyes of filmmakers, there is a place that is even more unpopular, and that is Taiping Hutong.

Taiping Hutong is next to the optical film, and it is a dirtier, worse, and messier place than the optical film.

Most of the people living there are black households without registered permanent residence, let alone serious jobs. The houses are also adobe houses built randomly, and most of them have no property rights.

Not having a registered permanent residence means not having a job, and it is very difficult to live in the city without a job, so many women who live in Taiping Hutong are engaged in flesh and blood business.

Li Suhua didn't have any complaints about Taiping Hutong, but he was worried that his son would be cheated by some unscrupulous women because of his young age.

"Kun'er, why did you go to Taiping Hutong?" Li Suhua asked worriedly.

Wang Gang folded a corner of the book, then closed it and put it on the kang table, saying: "Mom, I have never been to Taiping Hutong, but today I met a person who lives in Taiping Hutong."

Li Suhua frowned and said, "Who are you! Did you just meet today?"

Wang Gang nodded and said, "It's a candied haws seller."

Wang Gang told the situation of Zheng Juan's family. When Li Suhua heard that Zheng Juan's family had an elderly mother and a blind brother, Li Suhua's brows did not relax.

"You saw them for the first time today, how did you know so clearly?" Li Suhua asked.

"Zheng Juan's family is very famous in Taiping Hutong, I knew it as soon as I inquired about it." Wang Gang said.

"Zheng Juan is actually an orphan. She was picked up by Mrs. Zheng. Her younger brother is also an orphan." Wang Gang said.

Li Suhua asked with a sullen face, "Zheng Juan's family background is too complicated, you should not contact her in the future."

Wang Gang was puzzled and said: "Mom, don't you still dislike the poor and love the rich?"

Li Suhua hit Wang Gang and said, "Is your mother that kind of person? It's just that Zheng Juan's family burden is too heavy. If you marry her, you will suffer in the future."

It is not uncommon for mothers to hope that their children will find a good match.

"Mom, I think to marry a wife, family conditions are not the most important thing, but character is important." Wang Gang hugged Li Suhua's arm and said:
"It's just like you and Dad. Back then, the conditions were not good. We didn't rely on hard work to build this family."

Li Suhua held Wang Gang's hand and said, "Kun'er, it is because your father and I have suffered so much that I hope you brothers can be more stable."

Wang Gang shook his head and said: "Mom, you haven't heard a word that you can only be a master if you have to endure hardships. If we have been under the wings of you and Dad, what can we do well?"

Li Suhua said: "Mom hasn't read any books, so I can't tell you the truth, but this matter is definitely out of the question, and your father will have trouble with it."

Wang Gang was not worried at all and said: "Mom, this is what I think. To marry a wife and seek talents, as long as the person is good, birth is not important. I still have three years before I reach the age of marriage. You just spend three years to investigate Zheng Juan. chant!"

When Li Suhua heard this, his complexion improved a lot.

"Kun'er, don't learn from your sister."

Wang Gang said: "Mom, don't worry! I'm not such an unreliable person."

Li Suhua couldn't believe it, she was also young.

"When you have time, you can bring that girl named Zheng Juan home for a while, and let Mom take a good look at it."

Wang Gang said perfunctorily: "It will take a while! I just met him today."

Only then did Li Suhua come to his senses, and asked: "Son, it's not that you are in unrequited love, right? They don't even have a crush on you?"

"How is it possible, your son and I are so good."

Li Suhua thinks about it too, how could a woman in Taiping Hutong not have a crush on my son.

The next day, Wang Gang went to work as usual and came to the small cafeteria to prepare the factory director's lunch.

Around noon, Su Lie, the director of the cafeteria, came to the small cafeteria to look for Wang Gang.

"Xiao Zhou, there is a reception task tonight, you are ready to prepare, the standard of eight people."

"Okay, Director, I'll get ready now." Wang Gang agreed without hesitation.

"Xiao Zhou, the guests tonight are very important, do you understand?" Su Lie whispered.

"Director, don't worry, I will definitely show all my craftsmanship to ensure that the guests will be satisfied." Wang Gang vowed.

"I'm assured of your craftsmanship." Su Lie said with a satisfied smile.

"Director, I stewed a duck for lunch, and I reserved a portion for you to take away later." Wang Gang took out a lunch box and handed it to Su Lie.

"Is it crispy duck?" Su Lie's eyes lit up, and he took the lunch box without any hassle.

"I've changed the method this time, please taste the director." Wang Gang said with a smile.

Su Lie smiled and narrowed his eyes.

In the past half a month, Wang Gang has almost spoiled his mouth, and changed his pattern every day to make delicious food.

Now let Su Lie go to the big dining hall to eat those cabbage and potatoes, it is really hard for him to swallow, and the meals cooked by his mother-in-law are not to his liking.

"Okay, I'll try the dishes later, and I'll give you a review." Su Lie happily took the lunch box, ready to go back to his office and enjoy it.

Wang Gang has long understood the attitudes of these leaders, and he is not surprised.

In the past, in the courtyard world, the rolling mill also had small canteens, and He Yuzhu was in charge of them all.

It is not uncommon for leaders to use power for personal gain throughout the ages, which is why he can be like a fish in water in the timber factory.

The other people in the small cafeteria, seeing Wang Gang blatantly bribing Su Lie with delicious food, turned a blind eye to it. Who told themselves that they were not capable of him!

At noon, the factory manager spoke highly of Wang Gang's stewed duck. He was very satisfied with the food, his mouth was full of oil, and he almost chewed the bones.

After lunch, Wang Gang was free. He had already made a list of the ingredients that needed to be prepared for the evening, and handed them over to another chef to prepare.

Zhang Dazui is 53 years old this year. He has studied cooking for several years, but unfortunately he is not good at it. He used to work in the small cafeteria of the timber factory.

As soon as Wang Gang came, his authentic Sichuan cuisine cooking skills immediately compared him.

Opening his mouth was dissatisfied at first, and he planned to join forces with another chef to make Wang Gang whole.

As a result, before he could make a move, Wang Gang used his means to transfer another chef to the big cafeteria.

Now he opened his mouth wide and was honest, not daring to underestimate Wang Gang anymore.

The big canteen is responsible for the meals of hundreds of workers in the whole factory. It's not enough to work hard, and the oil and water are still pitiful.

Zhang Dazui is getting old, and he can retire after a few more years, so he has no desire to fight Wang Gang.

Wang Gang saw that Zhang Dazui was being honest, so he didn't punish him, and let him continue working in the small cafeteria. The two of them worked together happily.

As for the other three small workers in the cafeteria, they also knew well in their hearts, knowing that Wang Gang was a master of crafts and was being favored, so he couldn't afford to offend them.

In the evening, Wang Gang prepared a table of good dishes for the factory leaders, including chicken, duck and fish.

It is such a table of dishes, the average worker can eat less than one plate a year.

The leader of the lumber factory eats with peace of mind, wishing to eat and take.

The factory manager is full of food.

Wang Gang also took the opportunity to get a lunch box of vegetables and secretly threw them into the space, but no one could find them.

The craftsmanship of this lunch box is still inherited from He Yuzhu in the courtyard world.

Shazhu is capable of squinting a quarter of a chicken without letting others see it.

Wang Gang doesn't have that skill, but it's easy to pick out a lunch box from a table of dishes.

The entertainment mission ended at [-] o'clock in the evening, and Wang Gang was able to get home from get off work, so naturally he didn't need to clean up the mess.

After returning home, Wang Gang took out the lunch box. He wanted to serve meat to his mother, but his son could not eat meat, so his mother would drink porridge at home.

"Bingkun, why are you taking things from the public house again?" Li Suhua became unhappy when he saw the lunch box.

"Mom, this is not taken, it is given by the master of the cafeteria, and it can be regarded as an invisible benefit of the cafeteria." Wang Gang explained.

"Master gave it?" Li Suhua asked puzzled, "This is all good meat and vegetables, including fish!"

Wang Gang said: "The factory has hospitality tasks, and those of us in the back kitchen can share some, so you can eat with peace of mind!"

Li Suhua was quite relieved, and said to Wang Gang: "Mom, I ate it tonight, you should eat it!"

Wang Gang laughed and said, "I must have finished eating before I came back!"

Li Suhua slapped his forehead and said, "That's right, my son works in the kitchen, how can he still be hungry? Mom is confused."

Wang Gang pushed the lunch box in front of Li Suhua, unexpectedly Li Suhua's eyes were red.

"When your father was at home, we couldn't eat this delicious dish during Chinese New Year!"

Wang Gang was silent, the conditions of the Zhou family were really hard, otherwise they wouldn't have lived in the optical film.

In fact, Zhou’s family is considered to be well-off in optical film. Zhou Zhigang is an eighth-level bricklayer, and his monthly salary is 99 yuan. It is only his salary to support a family of five, so he has to save some money.

"Mom, the family conditions are better now. My dad, my brother and I all get salaries. Don't worry, our Zhou family will get better and better."

Li Suhua nodded and said: "Yes, you are right, our family will get better and better."
