Since 1981 Health School

  Chapter 36 Lan Lijuan Dried Bamboo Shoots with Rice

   One cup of tea per person, the office door was closed, and the dozen or so teachers had a tea party.

  The only tea boy, Chen Qi, ran back and forth countless times to open the water and refill their cups.

  Longjing tea has the best taste and nutrient precipitation when brewing for the first time. The taste of the second infusion will be lighter than the first infusion, and the nutrient precipitation will also be greatly reduced.

  Generally, the third brew is not of much taste value in terms of taste or nutrition, so after the third brew, it is generally not drunk.

  But this group of little old men probably really enjoyed it too much, let alone three bubbles, there are many people who have four bubbles and five bubbles.

   I guess what I drink is not tea, but this mood and memories of the past, so I don’t even eat lunch.

   Waited until almost noon, when the lesson was about to be prepared, everyone was ready to get up and inform.

  At this time, Teacher Zhao Yiping kicked the sack next to Chen Qi, "Squad Leader Chen, what's in it? How many things are you planning to bring as a gift? Do you want to recognize Teacher Li as a godfather?"

  Everyone beside him laughed, especially Li Baotian.

  Chen Qi knew he couldn't hide it, so he opened the sack and showed Zhao Yiping:

   "These are all authentic pheasants and hares in our mountains, all of which have been made into air-dried bacon, and I want to give it to the teacher to taste."

   Cured chicken? Preserved rabbit meat?

   These days, as long as there is meat, there is nothing that is not scarce, and the teacher usually can't eat too much meat.

  Zhao Yiping pulled out an air-dried rabbit and smelled it.

   "Hey, so fragrant, how many good things have you hidden?"

  Other teachers took a look and surrounded them again.

  Chen Qi brought 5 air-dried chickens and 5 air-dried rabbits this time, authentic mountain wild products, big and fat.

  Of course there is still a lot in the space. At that time, the farmer’s patient gave too many chickens and rabbits, and he couldn’t finish it all at once. The silly elder sister dried them all, kept some at home, and asked him to take the rest to school.

  But the school has no place to cook, so I want to give some of it to the teacher.

   Coincidentally, this time I was taken over by a pot.

  Zhao Yiping was not polite, and directly took out 5 yuan from his pocket and put it on the table, "Chen Qi, this rabbit is really fat, I want it, you keep the money, the teacher will not take it for nothing."

  Chen Qi picked up the money and wanted to send it to Teacher Zhao's pocket, "Students should respect their teachers, how can they collect money?"

   These are his sincere words, he really doesn't want to sell them for money.

  Zhao Yiping grabbed the money and threw it on the table again:

"Nonsense, now is a new society, how can teachers take things from students for nothing? Besides, I know you are from a rural area. It is not easy to support your education at home. Keep the money well. There will be many places where you will need money after graduation in the future. .”

   Teacher Xia Qiang next to him also took a dried rabbit, and quickly took out 5 yuan from his pocket.

   "The teacher will give it to you, and you will take it. When you graduate and become the chief director, when you come back to school to invite the teachers to drink and eat, we will definitely not pay for it, haha."

   After a while, all 5 chickens and 5 rabbits were bought by the teachers.

  Leaving 40 yuan in Chen Qi's hands, Chen Qi couldn't laugh or cry, "Teacher Li, look at this..."

  Li Baotian patted him on the shoulder:

"Take the money, the teachers are kind, and besides, they don't suffer any disadvantages, and what they give you is the market price. Alas, it's a pity that such a good Longjing has lost a few taels all of a sudden. It hurts me so much. By the way, where did you get Longjing tea and so many chickens and rabbits?"

  Chen Qi didn't keep it secret either, and told about his role as a guest surgeon during the summer vacation to treat the villagers.

  As for where the surgical instruments came from, he said that he had relatives in the commune health center and borrowed them from there, and this lie was rounded off.

   "So, these things are all given by the villagers, and this tea is also given by the head of the next village, otherwise my family wouldn't have such a thing."

  Li Baotian was a little surprised when he heard this:

   "You boy is really a genius in surgery. You dare to carry out minor surgical operations with the little knowledge you learned from books without any practice? Well, well, that's amazing, you deserve extra money."

   This was beyond Li Baotian's expectations, and he couldn't help being astounded at his student's courage. At the same time, he realized again that this is definitely a good seed for surgery, with a good foundation for boldness and carefulness.

  Fortunately, it was the early 1980s, if in future generations, outsiders would be the first to report Chen Qi for practicing medicine illegally, and then he would be severely beaten by the patient.

   Coming out of the teacher's office, he rushed to the cafeteria to have lunch again.

  It's already late, I guess other students who had dinner have left.

  When he ran to the cafeteria, the stalls were almost closed. Fortunately, everyone knew the name of the class leader Chen. Students with good grades were always easy to be treated extra.

   "Aunt Sun, hey, wait a minute, I haven't eaten yet."

   "Hey, isn't this Chen Qi? Did you come to eat at this time? Must be studying hard and forgetting the time?"

   Seeing Aunt Sun's confident expression, Chen Qi could only nod awkwardly, "Yeah, I'm just busy reading."

  Aunt Sun took Chen Qi's lunch box:

   "Still the old rules? Three taels of rice, one vegetarian dish? Let me tell you, you are lucky today, and the meat dishes are not sold out. Come on, auntie decides, and I will serve you a bowl."

   "Hi, Aunt Sun, you are really my real mother, thank you so much."

   "Really, haha, when did your kid have such a sweet mouth? Here, come on, go eat."

  Everyone likes to hear good things, especially from a "student master", which makes Aunt Sun in the canteen feel full of accomplishment.

  Chen Qi is also in a particularly beautiful mood. Although there are not many pieces of meat in this bowl of roasted pork with fried tofu, it still has a meaty taste, full of happiness.

   When he turned around after serving some dishes, he was very surprised to find that Lan Lijuan was there, eating in a corner.

A rare opportunity.

  Chen Qi walked over with his food, and sat down opposite Lan Lijuan.

  Lan Lijuan was eating and reading at the same time, she didn't notice it for a while, and she was shocked when she found someone sitting opposite her.

   "Chen Qi, you..."

   Chen Qi frowned when he saw Lan Lijuan's food: "You just use this dried bamboo shoots for dinner? Why didn't you even buy a vegetarian dish?"

  Lan Lijuan's eyes dimmed, but she still smiled and said:

   "Dried bamboo shoots are delicious. You yourself came out of the mountains. The best gift our mountains give to mankind is the best for dinner. My mother made it herself. Do you want to try it?"

  Chen Qi has been a human being for two lifetimes, so of course he immediately realized the reason.

  Lan Lijuan, like him, lives in a mountainous area. As you can imagine, the life of a family in the mountains is even more difficult. If you have to provide for a student to go to school, the family is basically clean.

  Eating is probably a problem.
