Chapter 23 On the way to the countryside (5)

Lu Xiaoxiao lived in a single room specially arranged by Wang Gang, and everyone else lived in a two-person room. She had just finished packing when she heard the elder sister come to inform everyone that they were going to the state-run hotel. I can't rest in the house and walk around.

Lu Xiaoxiao saw that half of the well-dressed people went to eat with the elder sister, and the others probably ate the food brought by home in the room.

Wang Gang had previously told her to go to the front desk to meet him for dinner after packing up, so she walked towards the front desk.

After Lu Xiaoxiao came to the front desk, she was led into an alley by Wang Gang. She did not expect that Wang Gang took her to a private restaurant like later generations. The owner and the cook are the same person. Wang Gang said that he is the heir of the royal chef. The cooking skills are top-notch, and he only does business with acquaintances. Most people can't eat it if they want to. He also came to eat by doing the boss a favor by chance.

After hearing Wang Gang's words, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that this place was very tall. She felt that the chefs here were even better than the chefs of Michelin restaurants in later generations, so she was looking forward to today's meal.

Expectations are good but reality is cruel. Lu Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded when the food came to the table. She saw a stewed pork and cabbage vermicelli, a dish of three delicacies, a bowl of tofu soup and a few white flour steamed buns. Meal, other people can't eat it if they want to, isn't it too exaggerated.

Wang Gang knew what Lu Xiaoxiao was thinking when he saw her expression, so he said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Do you think I'm exaggerating? You should taste it first."

After hearing Wang Gang's words, Lu Xiaoxiao filled a small bowl of tofu soup. After she took a bite of tofu, she felt that the tofu was delicate and smooth, and she took another sip of soup. It was sweet and refreshing, so delicious.

Then Lu Xiaoxiao tried the ground three delicacies and pork stewed vermicelli, and the taste was also superb.

After tasting all the dishes, she felt that the appearance of these dishes looked the same as usual, but the taste was too different, and the dishes really didn't look like it.

Wang Gang narrowed his eyes when he saw that Lu Xiaoxiao was eating, so he said, "There is not enough material now, there are not many ingredients, and the boss is a person who is unwilling to make ends meet. He only cooks dishes with complete ingredients."

After hearing Wang Gang's words, Lu Xiaoxiao understood that this boss is also a man of true temperament, and would rather be short than excessive.

After Lu Xiaoxiao was full, the boss served two cups of chrysanthemum tea. After eating heavy food, a cup of chrysanthemum tea is not perfect.

Wang Gang took a sip from his teacup and asked, "Xiaoxiao, what do you plan to do when you arrive in the village? Do you plan to go to school?"

"Can people who go to the countryside go to school?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

Wang Gang replied slowly after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words: "Under normal circumstances, it is not allowed. Going to the countryside is to go to the vast countryside for re-study, but special circumstances are treated specially. On the one hand, you go to the countryside at a young age. There are not many capable jobs. On the other hand, your parents sacrificed to protect scientific research achievements, and you offered to go to the countryside on your own initiative, which proves that you have a high level of ideological awareness. However, because your own hardware conditions are not good enough, you can make adjustments from it to let you Go to school first to learn cultural knowledge well, and strive to better contribute to the construction of the motherland when you grow up."

After listening to Wang Gang's words, Lu Xiaoxiao thought that it could be arranged in this way. She originally planned to go to the countryside to endure hardships. After all, she heard that children in the countryside have to dig wild vegetables and kill pigweeds at the age of five. Who knew that things would turn around, and she suddenly felt a sense of happiness. Bursting.

After being excited for a while, Lu Xiaoxiao calmed down. Although it is good that she can go to school, she is not really an eight-year-old child after all. Let her, an aunt who is already in her twenties, spend all day with a group of children of a few years old. Together, it will really go crazy.

"Uncle Wang, can I not go to class, just go to the exam. My father has taught me all the knowledge of elementary school, and I have started to read the textbooks of junior high school. I usually plan to do some farm work that I can do. That's a good arrangement, but I'm afraid that someone with a heart will make a fuss about it."
