Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1015 - 1016: Country Girl 60
Chapter 1015: Chapter 1016: Country Girl 60
Li Cui usually just eats a little something casually at noon; the good stuff is saved for when Zhang Yu comes back.
After eating some porridge casually, Li Cui planned to cut some fabric and then get ready to sew some clothes.
Seeing Zhang Yu and Xiao Qiao come back, Li Cui was quite surprised, "Why are you back?"
"Xiao Qiao, I’m going to pour water." Even though Xiao Qiao was the only one bringing Zhang Yu back, Li Cui, having worked at the police station for some days, knew they didn’t have anything going on.
Xiao Qiao wouldn’t dare let Li Cui pour water, "Grandma Li, no, no need, today the unit had braised beef; everyone wants you to cook again."
Xiao Qiao didn’t know how to express it, the beef was already cooked but they wanted Li Cui to cook again, it was somewhat strange.
We’re eating beef today? Li Cui was really surprised, having worked at the police station for some days, the old lady knows the meals at the station are usually basic, with only a few days a month being improved meals, the rest are quite ordinary.
Today isn’t a day for improved meals, how come there’s braised beef, especially beef?
You have to understand that chances are few this year, the last time beef was eaten was a coincidence when the state-owned restaurant sold beef buns; Liu Hong happened to run into them and spent all his meat coupons on buying a dozen beef buns.
The taste was superb, Li Cui still remembers it to this day, she didn’t expect that today she’d have another chance for something so good.
"Let me see." Li Cui picked up chopsticks to taste the meat sauce, sighing inwardly, the meat is good, but the cooking skill of the person is really not very good.
However, it’s okay, there’s a chance to salvage it, "Let me cook."
While quickly cleaning the beef, Li Cui remembered she forgot the most important thing, "By the way, have you guys eaten?" Seeing the heat from the lunch box, they should have gotten the food and come straight home.
"I’ll cook noodles." Though there’s porridge, how could she let Xiao Qiao eat that; if it’s Zhang Yu, porridge would be fine.
Zhang Yu originally thought Li Cui would let Xiao Qiao eat the porridge, but surprisingly, she let the guy eat noodles, Zhang Yu was instantly not pleased.
Why is it she who comes back alone to eat porridge, while Xiao Qiao gets such good treatment, Zhang Yu was quite annoyed on the side.
Xiao Qiao didn’t expect Li Cui to cook noodles, it scared the young man quite a bit.
Xiao Qiao kept waving his hands, "No, no, I’ve got food, I’ll go back to eat."
Afraid that Li Cui would hold him back, he swiftly ran outside, Zhang Yu seeing Xiao Qiao’s actions felt quite satisfied.
That’s how it should be, now the main supply is really difficult, although they’re women, the food provided each month needs Li Cui to find ways to change refined grains into coarse grains to be enough.
Of course, it’s not like all the refined grains are changed; some are kept in case guests come and they can be used.
Watching Xiao Qiao leave, Zhang Yu remembered something important, how could all the labor just leave, how would she manage to bring stuff to the police station later.
This really made Zhang Yu anxious, "Ah, Xiao Qiao, you can’t leave, how will I take these lunch boxes later."
"I’ll eat first and come back for them." Going back was impossible, Xiao Qiao dashed out quickly.
Listening to someone’s response, but the silhouette was nowhere to be seen, "Really worthy of the security team."
This speed, catching thieves and whatnot, is truly top-notch, it’s clear why everyone says Xiao Qiao would definitely be promoted if not for bad timing.
As an administrator, it’s not only important to know the situation of residents within the jurisdiction of the police station but also the circumstances of colleagues at the station.
For instance, Xiao Qiao is a transferred military man, one with medals, yet the details of his service in the military are absent from files.
Zhang Yu believes that what he was involved with must be something greatly impressive, otherwise why would it be concealed.
Currently, Xiao Qiao doesn’t have promotion opportunities, in a few years, who knows, this guy might rise.
Li Cui asked a few times, finding that Zhang Yu was not responding at all, just staring at the direction Xiao Qiao left.
Li Cui suddenly had a thought, could it be that Zhang Yu likes him, otherwise, why would she keep watching his leaving direction so intently.
She couldn’t help but remember how she was chased by an old gentleman when she was young, who each time when they parted, couldn’t bear to leave each other.
Li Cui recalls vividly, she watched the old gentleman leave with the same expression back then.
Calculating by time, yes, Zhang Yu is not young, at the age where it’s time to think about love.
If the girl has taken to Xiao Qiao, Li Cui really doesn’t find it surprising, this young man looks quite decent, plus, having come from the army, his character is beyond question.
Just not sure about his family’s situation, especially whether he could be a potential son-in-law.
But he’s such a good young man, even if he can’t become a son-in-law, Li Cui thinks Zhang Yu marrying him would be quite nice too.
"I think Xiao Qiao is quite good." Li Cui began cooking the braised beef anew and tentatively asked.
Zhang Yu really didn’t think of it at first, in her mind, she’s just a girl who hasn’t graduated high school, not at a marriageable age, Li Cui wouldn’t think of it in that way.
"He’s pretty good, occasionally the criminal investigation side needs people, if he has time, he’ll join in."
"He’s a diligent young man, pretty good." The internal affairs are well done too, and he speaking is quite refined.
Of course, it also has to do with Xiao Qiao’s looks; in this era where people don’t really care about appearance, Xiao Qiao’s looks truly stand out.
Li Cui listened to Zhang Yu’s evaluation, smiled broadly, see, she knew there was definitely something here.
As they were speaking, Zhang Yu was quite frightened by Li Cui’s expression, "Grandma, you’re a bit too terrifying, thankfully I’m familiar with you, otherwise you’d really scare off any promising youth."
Scare off? Li Cui truly doesn’t worry, "What do you think of Xiao Qiao."
Since having such an idea, Li Cui didn’t want to delay anymore, start a small romance, slowly get familiar with the other person, and take time to blend well.
Once both sides have blended well, wouldn’t Zhang Yu be at an age suitable for marriage.
No way, Zhang Yu looked at Li Cui in shock, "Grandma, do you really think, think I and Xiao Qiao quite match?"
Oh my gosh, clearly her evaluation of Xiao Qiao is rather restrained, just a regular colleague’s appraisal.
But what falls in the old lady’s eyes means she likes him, Zhang Yu really felt wronged, clearly, she was careful to avoid suspicion on the way, paying very close attention.
In the end, passersby had no thoughts, but the old lady did, alas, Zhang Yu sighed gently, "Xiao Qiao’s information is confidential."
"And as for family relations, he’s the only one." Zhang Yu stated simply.
Li Cui opened her mouth wide, the old lady working in the neighborhood and the police station knew confidential information meant the person was dealing with secretive tasks, once such a person meets an opportune moment, the future is untold.
