After saying that, the master and apprentice went out. Qiao Yitong rode the car and Gu Siwei rode on the back seat. The two of them went all the way to the factory where Zhao Fangming worked.

The factory is also the factory where Lao Xu works, but Lao Xu is not in the factory at this point. Although Lao Xu works hard, his age shows. If Lao Xu is happy to work so hard, Lao Xu’s family is not happy either. Even Lao Xu’s family

People are happy, but Lao Xu's disciples and grandchildren in the factory are not happy either.

Although the situation now is not as obvious as it will be a few decades ago, and there is no such thing as a school, the older and longer Lao Xu lives, the more he can take care of his disciples and grandchildren in this industry.

This is certain, as long as it is human society, this is inevitable, so Old Xu's disciples and grandchildren naturally want Xu Congwen to live a long life.

When they arrived at the factory gate, the gatekeeper didn't stop the two of them. No matter it was Gu Siwei or Qiao Yitong, the gatekeeper was quite familiar with them. After chatting for a while, they were let in.

The two entered the factory and headed straight for the canteen.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, they glanced through the window, but they didn't go in.

Because someone was eating in the cafeteria at this time, and he looked like a leader. Not only a leader, but also a big leader, because there were many people accompanying him.

There was no way to get in through the front door, so they turned to the back door.

You didn't even need to look when you got to the back door. Zhao Fangming inside saw the two of them stretching their heads first, so he walked out with a smile.

"Why are you here?"

"We just finished our work and we are hungry. I wonder if you have anything to eat here," Qiao Yitong said.

Zhao Fangming smiled and said: "Then you are lucky. When the leader finishes eating, I will bring you the remaining dishes," Zhao Fangming said.

After finishing speaking, Zhao Fangming said to Gu Siwei: "They have never used chopsticks. They have already served a plate, but I don't know if the leader will ask for more."

Nowadays, the dishes are not as elaborate as in the past, and there is no overly beautiful presentation. If the dish is delicious, it is normal for the guests to like to have another plate. Therefore, the kitchen usually prepares more main dishes and meat dishes for preparation.

Guests want to add dishes.

"fine".

Gu Siwei was indeed a little uncomfortable just now. He couldn't accept things that others had used, let alone dishes that others had eaten. But he was relieved after hearing Zhao Fangming's explanation.

Zhao Fangming can't do it without explaining. Gu Siwei is the only one who has the job he has now. Needless to say, the couple is grateful to Gu Siwei. How could Gu Siwei come to eat? Zhao Fangming has eaten food with other people's saliva.

If it was served to Gu Siwei, then Zhao Fangming would really be nothing.

The leader hasn't eaten yet, so it's impossible for the two of them to eat, but it's not a big deal. If they can't eat for the time being, they can just wait here.

The three of them just stood outside chatting quietly.

"Master Zhao, Master Zhao, let you pass."

After a while, a little girl ran over and shouted to Zhao Fangming.

Zhao Fangming said: "Here we come."

"You guys wait here, I'll be back in a minute," Zhao Fangming said, leading Xiao Gao into the house.

I originally thought he would come back soon, but Gu Siwei and Qiao Yi waited here for half an hour, and Zhao Fangming still hadn't come back.

The two were curious and walked into the kitchen to take a look. They found that Zhao Fangming was not in the kitchen. When they stood at the window where the dishes were passed, they found that Zhao Fangming was standing next to the table. He didn't know what to say. It looked like he was introducing.

Vegetable.

Seeing this situation, the two people retreated outside the house and continued waiting.

After about twenty minutes, Zhao Fangming came back.

"Come in, the leaders have finished eating and are leaving." Zhao Fangming greeted the two of them to come in.

The two followed Zhao Fangming into the back kitchen. Zhao Fangming took them to a separate small room. There was only an Eight Immortals table, a small cabinet and a camp bed next to it.

"You live here?" Gu Siwei asked.

Zhao Fangming smiled and said: "It's already very good. I am not a formal employee and am not qualified to be allocated a house. XCMG has taken special care of me to settle in this place, otherwise I wouldn't even have it."

Houses were in short supply at this time. It was really good for Zhao Fangming, a temporary worker, to have a place to live, not to mention that it was not a large dormitory, but a separate room.

Comrade Qiao Yi said: "It's pretty good."

"I'll get you something."

After Zhao Fangming finished speaking, he turned and left the room.

When I came back, I had a large tray in my hand. There were five dishes in the tray, one was Zhao Fangming’s specialty braised pork and one was braised pork ribs. Both of them were hard dishes. The remaining three were freshly cooked at a glance.

A plate of shredded green peppers and potatoes, a plate of oiled peanuts, and a plate of tomatoes with white sugar.

With these things, wine is definitely indispensable.

The wine was unopened and obviously had leftovers. However, the leftovers from the food were disgusting. But the same cannot be said for the wine. A few decades later, there were wine dispensers for drinking. At this time, all wine was drunk from the hip flask.

Zhao Fangming put the things on the table one by one: "Let's make do with some."

"Very good".

Qiao Yitong and Gu Siwei said while helping.

Seeing that Zhao Fangming was about to leave, Qiao Yitong asked: "What are you going to do? Stop it, sit down and have a drink together. Will you be okay later?"

"It's okay! I'm going to stir-fry two more hot dishes," Zhao Fangming said.

"No, these are enough. I can't eat more." Gu Siwei pulled Zhao Fangming to sit down.

The portions of the dishes at this time are sufficient. A plate of shredded potatoes has at least seven or eight taels of shredded potatoes. Isn’t this enough for three people?

Zhao Fangming finally left. When he came back, he made a minced meat egg and stir-fried shredded pork with dried green pepper. Then he sat down to drink with Gu Siwei and Qiao Yi.

"Isn't the work here tiring?"

Gu Siwei asked.

Zhao Fangming smiled and said: "I am tired, but I feel at ease. It is no better than staying at home."

This is the truth. In the past, when Zhao Fangming stayed at home, the couple could not sleep well. They were thinking about what they would eat at home in the future and where to get food. Now that Zhao Fangming has a job in the factory, he must have taken care of his own food.

, no matter what age, can a skilled cook still have nothing to eat?

He had eaten enough, and Sun Qiumei could live without worries with the money and goods that Zhao Fangming had brought back, and her life was naturally getting better and better.

"That's right." Gu Siwei nodded.

"How is the village now?" Zhao Fangming asked.

Zhao Fangming has not returned to the village for a while. First, the journey is quite long, and it takes two days to go back and forth. At this time, he has a single day off, and as a temporary worker, he does not have the treatment of a worker, so he has almost no days off.

If he didn't go back, Sun Qiumei would come over often, but even if Sun Qiumei came over, the two of them wouldn't have much time to be affectionate, because Zhao Fangming had to be busy with the workers eating, so he didn't know much about the things in the village.

Gu Siwei said: "It's still like that, but the village is planning to build a machine room, and the lumberyard is about to open. The first step is to cut down the trees near our village."

"I know about the logging. The village wants to build a machine room? You brought the machine, right? Uncle Wu Chuan doesn't have the ability, and the village doesn't have the money," Zhao Fangming said.

"It happened to me that I came across a machine that was eliminated by others," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Zhao Fangming smiled. He knew that there was no obsolete machine at this time. It was a new year, an old one, and another three years of sewing and repair. If the machine didn't fall apart, no one would eliminate it. It must be Gu Siwei's relationship with him again.

Got it from the village.

"By the way, Siwei, I want to learn a few dishes from you."

Zhao Fangming turned the conversation to cooking.

Gu Siwei didn't hide it. He learned his cooking online, so naturally he wouldn't treat it as a treasure. Besides, he really didn't expect to survive in cooking.

"It's okay, which one do you want to learn?" Gu Siwei asked.

Zhao Fangming did not expect Gu Siwei to agree so simply. Again, any skill at this time is a treasure, unless the skill is not yours, especially in the cooking profession. Everyone knows how to cook every dish, and it is very exciting to learn other skills.

That's great, but if you teach someone else their specialty, isn't that teaching the apprentice to kill the master?

"I want to learn a lot." Zhao Fangming was a little embarrassed.

"It's okay. Whatever you want to learn, I'll teach you if I have the materials," Gu Siwei said casually.

Qiao Yitong heard this and said, "How about I also learn to cook?"

"You? Do you have time? If you have time, learn how to chop vegetables with Brother Fang Ming first. Wait until the vegetables are cut before talking about anything else," Gu Siwei said.

The reason why Gu Siwei said this was because he knew that this kid was just having fun. He was focused on playing with the machine. Now he is better at making interpersonal relationships, but when it came to learning cooking, Gu Siwei felt that he didn't have the time.

"Forget about chopping vegetables."

Sure enough, Qiao Yi laughed and shook his head and quit.

"Can the pickled fish you mentioned before be made now?"

Zhao Fangming asked.

"You want to learn this?"

"I've been listening to you and want to know what it's like," Zhao Fangming said.

Gu Siwei smiled and said: "Then you have to wait a moment. The sauerkraut at home has not been pickled yet. To make this, we need to use sauerkraut from Sichuan."

Zhao Fangming smiled and said: "What a coincidence, a batch came to our kitchen."

Gu Siwei was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "Is it available now?"

Zhao Fangming nodded.
