There is still rice at home
▓ Xu Xiaobing
It's almost the New Year, and the team has the last team life meeting of the year. In this kind of meeting, the secretary and the cooking squad leader are basically the targets of the public's condemnation. Although I am satisfied with the food, I have to be consistent with everyone, and I want to hear a good word from me, but I can't get it. I have to find a few things to stink the two of them. If you don't want anything else, just be happy with your mouth.
The secretary is an old sparrow on Hongze Lake - he has seen big winds and waves. He took out a large notebook from his satchel and flipped through it, and when he found the "Life Meeting", he started reading and checking it, and the deputy captain slapped the table: "Can you change a few words, I have heard this inspection four times! Just talk about it orally, don't waste everyone's time." ”
There are a lot of "old cooks". It's all a specific matter, how to improve and solve it...... When asked by someone: I have been a soldier for 5 years, why I have never drunk a mouthful of porridge, three dry meals a day, I really can't stand it!
This man was a soldier from the northwest of Jin, and he ate and drank "soup." "I can only drink two "soups" a day.
Hey, think about it, it's been a year since I joined the old company, and I really haven't eaten a single porridge.
"Boiled some porridge at night supper, which relieves cravings and helps digestion, and does not press the bed board!" the deputy political commissar Xianren pointed the way.
"Old cook" Wu Moshui is an old comrade who has "changed his cotton hat" (8 years of military experience), with excellent cooking skills, good knife skills, good manners, and old qualifications (the old captain said that he will be transferred to the "military industry" next year). It took him a long time before he whispered, "If you still have rice at home, you can't eat porridge!"
The country sound is very ear-catching. I, squad leader Wu, stabbed out my child's interesting memories with a gentle sentence: porridge is a food without food; For example, kraft cabbage and wild gourd (pumpkin) should never be eaten at home.
"Who said that?" the vice-captain was on fire.
"My hometown has this rule. ”
Seeing that Wu Laowei was angry, I hurriedly made a fool of myself: "Oh! On the Chengdu Plain, on the dam in western Sichuan, there is really this one: if you have a handful of rice at home, you have to steam dry rice." "I swear that squad leader Wu does not boil porridge because he is trapped by the tradition of his hometown, and he has received the upbringing of "there are more than one people without thin food" since he was a child. No wonder he is.
"Tell me about it. "Everybody's interested.
So, I will tell you a story about the 18th Army's stay:
After the large army entered Tibet, the remaining garrison was stationed in Bazi, western Sichuan. What is the detention center for?
First of all, it is necessary to ensure logistics, organize and train soldiers, especially after the construction of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway begins, and the needs of this "colorful road" are all in charge of the left-behind office. After the establishment of the Tibet Military Region, the left-behind office was changed to the "Tibet Military Region Office";
secondly, to resettle those who are not suitable to enter Tibet with the team, and to receive the wounded and sick who have been transferred from the front;
And also...... (Not related to this article.) omitted)
Deputy head Gui repaired the "colorful road" and was injured and returned to recuperate. While being treated, Aunt Li, the captain of the family team, began to solve his "personal" problems, and was introduced by the local commune to bring back Xiao Yang, an 18-year-old peasant girl. Lao Guidu is 38 years old, has been in Tibet for 10 years, and has trained a deputy battalion commander who dares to fight into a "number one" who is "clear at a glance". 20 years older, Xiao Yang agreed, first-class A, Xiao Yang was willing. Wow! Major and deputy regiment commander, what a glory! Lao Gui has enjoyed it since he got married. Xiao Yang left everything up to him, except for the same, refusing to cook porridge. Even if you eat wheat cake (steamed buns, steamed buns), you don't burn it. After a long time, Lao Gui found Aunt Li. Sister Li scolded "Xiao Gui" as soon as she opened her mouth: You have only eaten a full meal for a few days and you have begun to torture people! You are only worthy of drinking two "soups" a day, you are a guy who forgets your roots!
"I just want a bowl of porridge. Xiao Yang always said that he still had rice at home, and he couldn't eat porridge. Eldest sister, look at this loser's play. Old Gui snorted.
On the Sichuan West Dam, here with me, if you talk about breaking the law, I will comply with the law. Customs, township rules and conventions, do you understand? You have been a soldier for so many years in vain, what rules have you learned when you entered Tibet? Forgot? You were born in the midst of blessings and do not know blessings! If I were not a soldier, I would have slapped you twice! I would have been angry. ”
For as long as I can remember, I know that anyone who is called "big sister" can't be provoked: it's a real tigress!
Porridge is a rice without food, and it is a food in a famine year. Such as kraft cabbage, boiled gourd (pumpkin). It's a swear word that a woman doesn't manage her house and abuse her husband. Xiao Yang didn't dare to commit this "public anger".
There are many women, and there are many words, and there are many things. Whichever family eats porridge today becomes the evidence of the crime of a woman abusing her husband: a bad woman. The office attaches great importance to it and is about to praise Xiao Yang, Xiao Gui is not long-sighted, and he must be ruthless.
Most of the veteran comrades of the army were born in Guanzhong Lengwa, and starting from caring for women, the office made a public announcement: Those who abuse women must be severely punished, and it is stipulated that every Saturday dinner is porridge and steamed buns......
The women's team conveyed: It's military regulations. You know the military rules, right? As a family member, you have to abide by the military rules.
Sichuan West Bazi, Little China, the land of abundance: never short of grain. The three meals were eaten with retort rice, after the rice was boiled, it was scooped up and drained, steamed with the retort separated from the water, and the rice rice was eaten and the rice soup was drunk. Squad Leader Wu, you said yes, right?
"Yes, yes, that's it. The old cook nodded in emotion.
"It's a great story! I'll tell it next time. "The commissar encouraged me.
"Tomorrow, you call the feeder to buy retorts. If it doesn't sell, draw a pattern and make one. Drinking rice soup is nutritious. The deputy political commissar immediately adjourned.
After the newly made retort arrives at home, for breakfast, we eat "political prisoners" (retort rice) and drink rice soup, and everyone is satisfied. In the summer, there was not enough rice soup to drink, and "political prisoners" were eaten for three meals.
If you have a retort, you can steam anything. The dining table is much richer.
After the meeting ended that day, I was pulled by Wu Laojiao: My family is in the "west of the office", and there are three cousins who marry in, and the chaff basket dances the rice basket, and the family follows to enjoy happiness......
"I left when I was in sixth grade. Maybe I know a few of your cousins. ”
