Capítulo 1081: Chapter 1080: Opening the Communal Canteen
“Of course, my granddaughter is like Wenqu Star descended to earth, she’ll beco a college student and a leader in the future,” the old lady said proudly, straightening her back.
Jiang Dashan was also beaming with joy. Hearing so many people praise the Jiang family made him truly happy.
The Jiang family was delighted by the complints from everyone, and even worked harder. Because of Jiang Mianmian, the Jiang family mbers were respected by the entire commune when they worked.
The materials they needed were always received first, and the tools they used were the best. The Jiang family truly experienced what it’s like to have a capable person in the family.
The afternoon was spent in an atmosphere of praising Jiang Mianmian and envying the Jiang family.
The road they had to repair was quite long, a major project. Initially, the commune secretary advised the villagers to go ho for als and take a break after eating. But after two days, he found the progress too slow and felt that going ho to eat wasted too much ti.
Now that the weather had ward up, he directly instructed the village chiefs to let the won of each household prepare als at ho at noon, bring them over, and eat directly there, without returning ho for lunch.
The Jiang family had three daughters-in-law who took turns going ho to cook. It was Su Wanyu’s turn to cook that day, and Jiang Mianmian, tired from reading, went with her mother to deliver als to the family.
Because Su Wanyu never skimps on cooking, she stir-fried four dishes this ti, which took a little longer.
By the ti they arrived, others had already started eating.
When Jiang Mianmian walked over to the Jiang family, she noticed many people were only eating porridge and pickles for lunch, with nothing else. It made her uneasy.
Repairing roads is heavy physical work, can their bodies really handle just eating these things?
“Mom, Dad, Brother Hai, I brought you so food,” Su Wanyu said, carrying a small basket with the al, speaking to everyone.
“Wife, thank you for your hard work. I could sll the aroma from afar,” Jiang Changhai said as he ran over with a grin to help carry things when he saw his wife and daughter.
Jiang Changhai took out the food, and the Jiang family began eating.
Compared to the others with their porridge and pickles, their al looked particularly appetizing.
Initially, people enjoyed their simple als, but now, with the sll of stir-fried dishes and stewed at, the food in their hands seed tasteless.
In the end, they could only comfort themselves by inhaling the aroma of the Jiang family’s dishes while eating the bland food in their hands.
After the Jiang family finished eating and rested for a while, they all went back to work. Since Jiang Changhai’s tasks weren’t urgent, he stayed behind to help his wife clean up the dishes.
“Dad, I noticed many people here were just eating porridge and pickles. Those aren’t filling at all. For such heavy labor, their bodies can’t handle it over ti,” Jiang Mianmian said, always considerate of others.
“So, daughter, what do you propose?” Jiang Changhai knew his daughter must have an idea when she spoke like that.
Jiang Mianmian moved closer to sit between them and shared her idea: “Hey, Dad, Mom, I was thinking maybe we could buy so flour and send it to the communal kitchen where we used to eat from the big pot. Let the won there steam more buns, and at noon, give each person a multigrain bun to go with their porridge and pickles. This will give them more strength.”
Jiang Changhai listened and didn’t oppose the idea. Grains aren’t expensive now, and a multigrain bun doesn’t cost much.
