1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 593 Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fried rice with eggs

After attending the economic meeting, Luo Tao was not idle either. Large and small matters in the capital came one after another.

He is busy with everything he has to do.

Not only do I have to host some major meetings of Xichang Company, but I also have to participate in some... such as the Hope Project and the vegetable basket project that just opened this year.

Especially the vegetable basket project, this is the future development direction of Xichang, and it is also the main industry of Xichang in the future.

Therefore, Luo Tao is very concerned about this national livelihood project.

Just like the old saying: You must eat well and eat well.

This sentence seems very simple in the 21st century. In the 80s and early 90s, this was a great goal.

The staple foods in the north and south of our country are wheat and rice.

In terms of staple food, due to the birth of household contracting and the unremitting efforts of countless agriculturalists who cannot be named, the huge problem of hunger has been basically solved nationwide.

But in terms of non-staple food, it still cannot meet the needs of the people.

Among this side food, vegetables are the most important.

Especially in winter, in the north, besides cabbage and radishes, potatoes are the only food.

Before there was no vegetable greenhouse, this was the vegetable that the people in the northern region used for winter.

Take Beijing as an example. As the central city in the country, the people here have much better choices of vegetables for winter.

For example: Chinese cabbage, green radish, carrot, potato, green onion.

These winter vegetables, especially Chinese cabbage, are the most popular among people in the capital.

In Beijing, it has a high reputation as a "home-made dish". From January to November every year, storing Chinese cabbage is a major event for every household in Beijing. In order to save energy in the coming winter and spring, people have to wait in long queues due to the cold. , I bought hundreds of kilograms of cabbage at once and stored it.

After buying it...

If you live in a large courtyard, you can get a vegetable cellar if you can. If you live in a Tongzi building, you can just stack the vegetables directly at the door, or put them on the guardrail of the corridor.

This kind of scene can be regarded as a scene in the capital in winter.

Cabbage is the hard currency in winter, and a catty of cabbage costs four to five cents when winter comes.

It's not cheap, it's ridiculously expensive. How much is a catty of pork now?About one dollar and eight.

In the 21st century, cabbage only costs a few cents per pound.

The reason why Chinese cabbage is so expensive now is not only related to the season and planting technology, but also has a lot to do with the second-hand dealers.

At present, winter vegetables are still supplied from above, but due to the small quantity, they cannot meet the needs of residents.

Everyone took the grocery book and the subsidy from the above, and queued up before dawn to buy vegetables. Since there were no middlemen to make the difference, a pound of cabbage cost almost three cents.

But if this opportunity is missed, the price may be multiplied several times, or more than ten times. A catty of cabbage really costs fifty or sixty cents.

The story about cabbage in the winter of the 80s has never stopped.

In order to allow the common people to eat cheap vegetables in winter, they subsidize this, and the city government has to lose two overpasses.

From this we can see the importance of the vegetable basket project.

If China didn’t have this great livelihood project, we would consider milligrams when eating fruits and leaves when eating vegetables.

The implementation of the vegetable basket project has really allowed people in the northern region to get rid of the "three old things" in winter and get rid of the days of eating pickles before spring.

As one of the promoters of this project, Luo Tao has gained a little more fame for this.

"Mr. Luo, your Xichang company has been deeply involved in the vegetable basket project for several years. It is firmly in the leading position in the country in terms of professional technology, the quality of employees, and investment intensity.

You are also a pioneer and practitioner of the vegetable basket project...I will still need to rely on you and your company's support in the future! "

After the meeting, the deputy leader of the Ministry of Agriculture in charge of the vegetable basket project took the initiative to talk to Luo Tao.

Deputy leader Wang knows very well that Xichang and Luo Tao will be the key to whether he can make a name for himself in the vegetable basket project in the future.

He knows the influence of Xichang Vegetable Basket across the country and its future development potential better than anyone else.

It was precisely because he saw this that this job was assigned to him.

As for Luo Tao, let's not talk about it. He is too famous and is the legendary living God of Wealth.

It was impossible for Luo Tao to put on airs in front of a big leader's overtures.

But it was impossible to comply with what he said.

"Wang Buchang is serious. Xichang's current achievements are inseparable from the strong support from the superiors and the ministry. Without...

You are a responsible leader, and Xichang Vegetable Basket will still rely on your support in the future... As long as it benefits the people in the future, Xichang will never hold back Wang Buchang. "

Now Luo Tao will not bet casually, especially for someone like him who is in a high position and has never been in contact before. This must not be too honest.

The more I learn about it in the past few years, the more I understand the meaning of the word "walking on thin ice."

He should only give half of what he said. There are still conditions. As long as it is good for the people, Xichang will definitely follow your footsteps.

As for whether Luo Tao himself should follow closely, needless to say, Deputy Leader Wang himself knew that it was impossible.

At his level, it is impossible not to fail to see Luo Tao's future achievements.

What's more, Luo Tao was leaning against a tree that was even thicker than him.

After hearing this, Deputy Leader Wang smiled brightly and held Luo Tao's hand tightly.

He couldn't help but said: "With the support of Mr. Luo and Xichang, my work has become much easier."

These are all polite words. Even with the support of Luo Tao and Xichang, his job will not be easy. After all, if the vegetable basket project wants to be promoted nationwide, the most difficult work is at the bottom, not at the top.

But he also sealed the relationship between Luo Tao and Xichang and him.

Luo Tao could only say a few greetings to him in his heart, but otherwise he could only take a step at a time.

……

When I got home, the sky had darkened, and there were only a few crimson ribbons left on the west side of the sky.

When there is wind, it will move. When there is no wind, it will lie down quietly, waiting to be swept away by the black curtain.

Occasionally you will see a group or maybe a few whistle pigeons returning late.

Carrying musical instruments, I flew from the White Tower in the West City to my home on the roof of the bungalow in the East City.

There are also more people on the road. They are the most diligent people in the city. They wear extremely monotonous and simple clothes, step on the two big bars, and rush home as fast as possible.

They were all very fast, especially the young man. The bicycles were under their buttocks, as if they were equipped with hydrogen tanks, and they came and went without a trace.

The street lamps on the street seem to be different today, as if they were slapped by someone, they are bright but not flashing.

After Luo Tao returned home and finished handling a few important things, he lay down on the Arhat bed in the study and quickly fell asleep.

……

"The rice at home still smells good." He took a big mouthful of noodles and sighed before he could eat it.

"Hiss~~"

The music played by food is endless.

I started preparing the noodles again, and what suddenly occurred to me?
"You're okay, help me go to the kitchen and get a few cloves of garlic. This noodle is tasteless without garlic." Luo Tao waved his hand and directed Zhu Lin, who was sitting aside with nothing to do.

"You just have too many things to do." She stood up, spat, then turned and went to the kitchen.

"Isn't this ridiculous!" Luo Tao chuckled for a moment, then put another chopstick noodle into his mouth.

Chewing vigorously, like a hungry tiger pounces on food, the noodles, no matter how chewy they are, are like cotton pulp in his mouth.

He fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, it was already past dinner time. This was the dish that Zhu Lin made when he woke up.

Not a moment later.When Zhu Lin came back, he said without any emotion: "Here."

I took it and looked at the five or six petals. I thought it was enough to eat.

Luo Tao was not as boring as her, "My dear wife, thank you for your hard work."

"Come on, come on, eat your food quickly!" She said and sat back on the kang.

When he got the garlic cloves, he didn't hesitate. He chewed them one by one. Feeling the spiciness, he quickly put a mouthful of noodles into his mouth.

Just like this over and over again, while chatting with Zhu Lin, the big bowl of noodles was eaten within a few minutes.

Maybe I didn’t eat very well at lunch. After eating this big bowl, I still feel a little hungry.

"Any more?"

"what?"

"noodle."

Zhu Lin glanced at Luo Tao, then looked at the bowl where even the soup was clean.

"Gone."

Hearing this, Luo Tao's expression changed, "But there is still some rice in the refrigerator, do you want to eat it?"

Mountain darkly, vista.

As long as it's there, Luo Tao still cares about whether it's leftover rice, "Add two eggs and a little more oil."

After saying that, he leaned back on the chair like an uncle.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, Zhu Lin didn't move. He looked at her with eager eyes, like a tiger falling into the sheepfold. At this time, he was not thinking about whether there was any danger, but thinking about which one to eat first.

Luo Tao was preparing words to persuade her.

He stood up and picked up the bowls and chopsticks on the desk, "I owed you something in my previous life."

Luo Tao smiled and expressed his agreement.

She glanced at him again, and as soon as she stepped out of the bedroom door, she turned around and asked, "Just add two eggs?"

Luo Tao hesitated for a moment, then quickly said with absolute certainty: "That's enough." He really didn't dare to ask for more, just in case someone was unhappy and gave up his choice, he would go back to Gao Laozhuang just like Zhu Bajie.

How many people understand the loneliness of the night?

"Wait!" Shi Ranran took the bowl and left.

What is happiness?This is happiness.

Not long after Zhu Lin entered the kitchen, Su Guilan came out of the bedroom.

"I asked Lin'er why he's cooking again, isn't he making noodles?"

In a milky white porcelain bowl and yellowed bamboo chopsticks, egg whites and egg yolks are slowly mixed and mixed under rapid beating and stirring until bubbles of different sizes appear in the porcelain bowl.

"Mom, haven't you rested yet?"

While stirring the egg liquid quickly, Zhu Lin was talking to her mother-in-law Su Guilan.

"It's only what time it is, it's still early. Is he not full from the noodles?"

"Yes, he may be tired these days, and his appetite is much larger than usual. Isn't there some rice left for dinner? I'm going to fry some eggs for him."

As he said this, he saw the oil in the pot steaming and the oil on the edge glowing with flowers.

Don't rush to put the eggs in the pan. If the egg liquid is stained on the chopsticks, try it in the oil pan. If it forms quickly, you can put it in the bowl directly. Otherwise, you have to wait.

Now the oil temperature is just right. Hold the bowl and pour it gently, and it will fry non-stop.

My wife, Su Guilan, also came over and looked at the chopping board with some diced meat, diced carrots, green onions, and other side dishes.

Seeing that there were a lot of preparations and there was nothing to do to help, he just stood aside obediently.

In fact, the old lady still cares about her son very much.

"This kid is quite naughty. He wants to eat but is too lazy to do anything at night, but he will command you... I think he just needs to be dealt with."

The old lady was partial to her son in her heart, and in favor of Zhu Lin with her mouth.

This is not because there is any sordid relationship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, this is the power of blood.

In fact, this is also the reality of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in most families.

Zhu Lin smiled knowingly. She didn't believe that Su Guilan would really beat up Luo Tao for such a trivial matter.

The old lady felt sorry for her son, it was too late, how could he beat him.

The sound of the spatula rubbing against the iron pan is indeed a beautiful piece of music to the cook.

"Mom, please stop touching your hands. It will be fine for a while. You should go back to the house and rest!"

As he spoke, the egg liquid quickly took shape, glowing golden yellow and oily, and under the impact of the spatula, it turned into small pieces that were not very uniform in size.

After confirming that it is half-done, pour it into a plate.

Then add a little cooking oil to the pot, then pour in the side dishes, stir-fry until fragrant, and then pour in countable grains of rice from the vast Northeast.

"I can't sleep even when I go home. It's a pleasure to watch you cook." The old lady didn't know where she learned such a glib tone.

These words spoke to Zhu Lin's heart, "Mom, you are making fun of me again."

"Hey! Lin'er, why are you making fun of you? Your mother and I never like to tell lies, so this is good."

The old lady also sniffed and said, "It's so far away, and I can smell the fragrant aroma of rice. It makes me hungry."

Zhu Lin held the spoon in one hand and covered his mouth with a spatula in the other, laughing happily.

"Mom, your old mouth can really say that I can't cook as well as you always say."

"I said it's that powerful, and it's that powerful."

With that said, this bowl of fragrant egg fried rice was served.

Zhu Lin is a meticulous person. When she was serving eggs and fried rice, a few grains were scattered on the stove. She held the bowl in one hand and was about to clean it up.

Su Guilan hurriedly said: "Don't clean up here. I'll do it. You'd better bring it to him first. Don't wait for him to shout and talk a few words."

Zhu Lin didn't say much, and returned to the east wing bedroom with the bowl in hand.

"Mom, why haven't you rested yet?"

Luo Tao asked as soon as Zhu Lin entered the door.

She rolled her eyes at him and put it on the desk, "It means she can't sleep. I think she just cares about you."

"Oh?" Luo Tao touched the bowl and looked at the dazzling lights in the kitchen.

The voice is gone.

Zhu Lin didn't pay attention and said, "My mother's mouth feels like honey today."

"Oh?" Luo Tao turned around and looked at her with questioning eyes.

She smiled and told Luo Tao the conversation she had just had between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the kitchen.

Luo Tao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

In fact, what my mother, Su Guilan, said to Zhu Lin today was different from what she usually said.
