Chapter 153 Meeting
"Yuanyuan, thank you!" After the matter was settled, Wenxi went back to cook dinner.
With four people helping her pick bamboo shoots in the future, she should be able to make money faster.
Wenxi returned home, added water to the pot, put the bamboo shoots peeled with the smartphone in, and then began to boil water and fry the bamboo shoots. After the water in the pot boiled, the bamboo shoots changed color. Wenxi turned the bamboo shoots over so that all of them could be blanched for a few minutes. After the bamboo shoots were blanched, he took them out and placed them on a winnowing basket, and brought them to the yard and placed them on a bench to drain the water.
Wenxi returned to the kitchen, cut the remaining bamboo shoots, and then put them into the chicken soup pot to stew together. The bamboo shoots will taste even better when they are dipped in the delicious chicken soup.
After a large pot of mushroom, bamboo shoot and chicken soup was ready, Wenxi scooped it up and put it in the system warehouse. He only used a basin to fill a bowl outside to eat in the evening.
The bell for the end of work rang, and soon Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue came back. They went to the well to fetch water, washed their hands and faces, and waited until their body temperature dropped before running to the kitchen. Wen Xi had already prepared the meal in the kitchen, so they sat down and started eating right away.
After going to the countryside for a few months, they had fine grains and meat and vegetables every day. Both Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue grew up at a speed visible to the naked eye and their bodies became plump.
If they go home now, their family members probably won't recognize them at first, right?
The next morning, after breakfast, everyone went to the threshing ground for a meeting. When Wenxi and the others arrived, there were already many people standing there. Everyone was whispering and guessing about the content of today's meeting, but Captain Qian had not arrived yet, so no one knew what would be discussed in the meeting.
Captain Qian came over and put his hand down, signaling everyone to be quiet.
When the buzzing sound in the threshing ground had died down, Captain Qian said, "Before we start work today, I have a few things to announce."
Everyone looked at Captain Qian with wide eyes, waiting for what he was going to say next. And seeing that Captain Qian was in a good mood, they felt that what he was going to say would definitely be good news.
"The first thing is that Comrade Wen picked up a little badger from the mountain. I raised it in the pig shed and will give it meat to everyone when it grows up."
Although badgers are not as big as wild boars and do not have as much meat as wild boars, they can still grow to weigh several dozen kilograms. Although there is not enough to share, they can be taken to the canteen and cooked so that the whole village can have a lively meal.
When everyone heard this, they cheered with joy. Badgers are not good creatures. They are as hateful as wild boars. They will come down the mountain to steal food. It would be fine if they just steal food, but they can also destroy a large area!
"The second thing is that during the spring planting season, we had such good food. It was all thanks to Comrade Wen. I sent the accountant to the town to buy bones for the first day. The eggs, fish and offal we ate afterwards were all paid for by Comrade Wen. After discussion within the team, we decided to give all these things to Comrade Wen at market prices."
"Comrade Wen, please come over here for a moment." Captain Qian said.
Although he was very reluctant, he couldn't let Wenxi, a sent-down youth, pay for it. After all, it was not a small amount of money.
Wen Xi walked up to Captain Qian amid everyone's envious gazes and took the envelope handed over by Captain Qian. In fact, a lot of things were from Lin Yiwan, but Lin Yiwan didn't come forward. Wen Xi couldn't drag Lin Yiwan out, right? Wouldn't that be telling Lin Yiwan clearly that she knew all her details?
"Captain Qian, didn't the commune give the quota for building a primary school to our Fengshou Brigade? So I want to donate this money to build a primary school in Fengshou Brigade." Wen Xi handed the envelope, which had not yet warmed up, to Captain Qian.
Building a primary school costs money anyway. Now that she has donated the money, the pressure on the team will be less. It will also allow everyone to remember her name and let her be remembered forever. How great!
But Lin Yiwan also had a share of the money, but Lin Yiwan was unwilling to step forward, so there was nothing she could do.
"Comrade Wen, thank you. I want to say thank you on behalf of Fengshou Primary School and all the children. I will carve this incident on the school monument so that everyone can remember Comrade Wen's efforts and contributions."
Captain Qian did not expect Wen Xi to make such a decision. There was a lot of money in the envelope, more than one hundred yuan. It would take a rural family several years to save this money!
"Captain Qian." At this time, Lin Yiwan also walked out of the crowd, "Captain Qian, I will also donate 100 yuan to the primary school. I hope that all girls can go to school and make contributions to the country in the future."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp. They didn't expect that this little girl, Lin Yiwan, would be so generous to spend so much money.
You know, no one can get so much money in a year, but Lin Yiwan was able to donate so much money all at once. It seems that the Lin family's wealth has become increasingly rich over the years.
Captain Qian nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, I will carve your names on the monument so that everyone can remember your efforts and contributions."
Wen Xi and Lin Yiwan looked at each other and then laughed.
Wen Xi originally felt bad that only her name was engraved on the monument, but she didn't expect Lin Yiwan to have both of their names engraved together in this way.
"The next thing I want to talk about is the third thing. After work ends today, we will start building a primary school. Those who are willing to build a primary school can come and sign up later."
The primary school doesn't start until September, so it's completely in time to start construction now. So everyone can start work first and then build the primary school after work.
"The fourth thing is about primary school teachers. All junior high school and high school graduates can sign up for the recruitment exam. The best candidates will be admitted based on their test scores. Those who want to sign up should hurry up and register here at the accounting department." As soon as he finished speaking, Captain Qian saw many people getting ready to move, including Liang Zhaodi, Chu Waner...
"The leader said that people with bad conduct as teachers will corrupt our children, so those people who were punished to carry manure should not apply, because you do not meet the requirements for applying to be a teacher."
Liang Zhaodi, Chu Waner and Xu Huaying stopped in their tracks, all with very ugly looks on their faces. They thought they could change their fate, but they didn't expect that there would be such a request.
If they had known earlier, they would not have fooled around with Nie Xiulan. Nie Xiulan was worried that Lu Xiaoyun fell in love with Wen Xi. They had nothing to do with Lu Xiaoyun, so why should they fool around with Nie Xiulan? It would only hurt others and themselves.
