Chapter 54 Yan Qiulian Embarrassment

in the living room.

Through the introduction, Jiang Ping'an also learned that Li Wen'an's wife is called Leng Meihua, who is a professor of physics at Tsinghua University and is recuperating at home.

The woman who just brought him in was Yan Qiulian, Li Wenan's third daughter-in-law.

Li Wen'an has three sons and one daughter. Only the youngest son, Li Zhixiang, lives in the capital. The other sons and daughters work in other provinces and settle down.

Yan Qiulian is Li Zhixiang's wife. She is a middle school teacher and the couple got married in the middle of the year.

And Li Zhixiang is the publicity officer of Fenghai District Cultural Bureau. He went on a business trip recently and was not at home.

Because Leng Meihua was sick and needed someone to take care of her, Yan Qiulian asked for leave to take care of her mother-in-law.

Normally, she and Li Zhixiang do not live here, but in a house allocated by the Cultural Bureau.

in the living room.

Jiang Ping'an and Li Wenhua were drinking tea and talking.

At this time, Yan Qiulian was wearing an apron, twisting a kitchen knife in her right hand in the corridor at the door, looking at the chickens in the chicken coop, she turned her head in embarrassment and said:
"Dad, I never killed a live chicken."

Her natal family was in good condition, although it could not be said that she was spoiled and spoiled, and her ten fingers were not touched by the spring water, but she could only cook the rice well.

And the chickens bought in the market are all frozen chickens, which cost [-] cents a catty. Of course, even frozen chickens are hard to buy now.

Especially this year, the stocks of meat, poultry, and eggs have dropped sharply, and the tension has reached the extreme.

In particular, the supply of pork has decreased sharply. From the second half of this year, there will be no fresh meat to supply residents.

We can only maintain the supply for special needs, and there is no cash for the meat invoices issued by residents.

So canned meat can only be put on the market to replace the supply of fresh meat.

Raw, cooked meat, chicken, duck, fish and its canned products are used to supply the equivalent amount of meat, and several tickets can be bought together to buy a tin of canned food.

Even in the next year or two, the issuance of meat tickets to residents will be stopped.

In addition to supplying some special needs, patients, mothers, nurseries, etc., the ration of eggs for residents cannot be maintained, and the supply will also be stopped.

So, the hard days are still long!
Li Wen'an was stunned, and quickly got up and said, "I'll do it!"

"Teacher, rest, how can I make you tired?" Jiang Pingan got up and said with a smile.

"I'm idle and I'm idle, just looking for something to do."

Then he went out, took Yan Qiulian's kitchen knife, and stretched out his hand to wring the cock out of the coop.

"Where to kill?" Jiang Pingan looked around and asked Yan Qiulian.

Yan Qiulian hesitated, pointed to the corner, and said, "Go to the kitchen door, we can clean it later."

"Wait a minute, the street light is not on, I'll get a flashlight and help you illuminate it."

As he said that, he trotted to the wing room and took the flashlight.

"Let Ping An see the joke." Li Wen'an smiled awkwardly.

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "There are specialists in surgery, and each has their own strengths. No one knows everything."

The two came to the door of the kitchen, and when Yan Qiulian came over with a flashlight, Jiang Ping'an said:

"Bring me another bowl and fill it with chicken blood. This is also a dish, so don't let it go to waste."

Li Wen'an said: "Let me shine the flashlight!"

Yan Qiulian responded, handed the flashlight to Li Wen'an, and went to the kitchen to get a bowl.

The knife flashed, and chicken blood flowed into the bowl. Yan Qiulian covered her face and turned her head away, not daring to look.

The cock flicked a few times, and soon died.

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "Add some salt and water to the bowl. The ratio of salt to water is about [-]:[-]. Let's figure it out!"

"Bring out another bucket and boil a pot of boiling water. The chicken feathers will burn until they are plucked..."

Yan Qiulian followed suit, and Jiang Ping'an moved swiftly, and quickly cleaned up the chicken.

Jiang Ping'an didn't take care of the affairs in the kitchen any more. After all, he was here as a guest, so he still had to be careful.

Came to the living room and sat down, Jiang Pingan asked Li Wenan for advice:
"Teacher, for things like job assignment after graduation, is it recommended by the school, or assigned by the HR department?"

"Hehe, you've just entered school and you're thinking about work?" Li Wen'an looked at him in surprise and said with a smile.

Jiang Pingan chuckled twice and said, "I'm not too ambitious."

"Since I graduated from junior high school, although I haven't continued to go to high school, I haven't been idle."

"I borrowed textbooks from my classmates who went to high school in the city. I have been studying by myself all these years, and my studies have not been abandoned."

"My idea is to be admitted to Class A at the end of the year. If possible, I want to try to take the entrance examination next year."

"University exam?" Li Wen'an restrained his smile and became serious.

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "I want to go to college, but I plan to work and study on my own."

"My teacher has also seen my situation. My parents are not here. I will be 24 next year. I have to take care of myself when I start a family."

Hearing this, Li Wen'an pondered for a while, then raised his head and said, "Our school only trains cadres."

"In the first half of each year, a work assignment team composed of school leaders and overtime directors will be established."

"First of all, most people will follow the principle of going back and forth after graduation, and return to work in their original units."

"Secondly, for those who are promoted like you, the superior will issue a plan, how many people will be provided with as many jobs, one carrot and one hole."

"How to allocate is also based on the comprehensive consideration of the graduates' personal political conditions, daily performance, and professional learning."

"The allocation team will repeatedly weigh and compare, strive to correspond to each other, and try to be fair and reasonable."

"Student files are not open to the public, employers cannot choose at will, and [-]% of students' job assignments are determined by the school."

"But there are also special circumstances. Some units will come to select students after being approved by their superiors. At this time, the school only has the right to recommend."

Jiang Ping'an suddenly understood, and suddenly said: "So, I thought it was the personnel department who assigned the work!"

"You think the situation is for college graduates, and the distribution form is more flexible." Li Wen'an smiled.

"For example, if a certain jurisdiction needs [-] to [-] technicians, the school will adopt the form of 'unified research, counterpart assignment' and allocate a corresponding number of students there."

"When it comes to which unit a certain student goes to, the personnel department will be responsible for implementing it to the specific unit according to the requirements of 'dedicated talents, allocated to counterparts'."

After a pause, he looked at Jiang Ping'an, smiled and said, "Don't think so much now."

"As long as you have good grades, I will try my best to take care of you when you assign units in the future."

That's enough!
Jiang Pingan was full of surprise, stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you teacher, I will definitely not let you down!"

A person always needs to meet a few noble people to support him in his life, so that he can take off and go straight to the sky.

For Jiang Ping'an, Jiang Dahai is his nobleman, Chen Zezhong is his nobleman, and now Li Wen'an will also be his nobleman.

After the matter was discussed, the conversation between the two became stronger. Li Wen'an is a kind person, but he pointed out many things to Jiang Ping'an.

After a while, the meal was ready.

Food is rationed these days, so every household eats the same amount.

The dishes are the old three, radishes, potatoes and cabbage, plus a plate of sausages, and the staple food is corn bread made of stick noodles.

As for the chicken, it hasn't been stewed yet, even if it is stewed, it will still provide nutrition for the sick.

Li Wen'an and Jiang Ping'an were the only two in the dining room. They each poured a glass of wine, drank, ate and chatted, and it was quite relaxing.

Yan Qiulian didn't come over, saying that she was going to serve her mother-in-law for dinner.

But having said that, although equality between men and women is being talked about these days.

But when there are guests at home, if the guests are not very close, the female relatives generally do not come to the table.

"Life in the countryside is harder than our school?" Li Wen'an was a little surprised after hearing what Jiang Ping'an said.

What kind of day is that in school, sweet potatoes are eaten every day, and even sweet potatoes cannot be eaten openly.

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "I didn't lie to the teacher. The past few years have been difficult in the countryside."

"The folks in several communes near our hometown are now living on relief food."

Li Wen'an sighed softly, and said, "There's no way. The country is poor and weak. If you want to be self-reliant, how can you not suffer?"

"But having said that, we have survived so much suffering, as long as we grit our teeth, we will have a good life!"

"Actually, compared to when we were younger, you are now living a very happy life. At least you have a peaceful environment to study."

"When we were studying, we fought wars twice in three days, classes were suspended, people were panicked, and we were in danger. That was really miserable!"
