Cheng Qianfan cooked four dishes, two meat and two vegetarian.
Stir-fried pork slices with green pepper, pan-fried small yellow croaker, pickled bean paste, and stir-fried celery with dried fragrant spices.
He cooked these four dishes because in the afternoon, he saw a new column in the application. This was a column by an author signed by a woman who would recommend daily menus to the public.
Basically, the dishes are listed according to the two meat and two vegetarian dishes every day.
'For a family of eight, there are two meals for lunch and dinner, two meat and two vegetables, two bowls of each kind. If you go to the market to buy it yourself, sixty-seven cents is enough.'
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan cooked these two meat and two vegetables for two people to eat, which can be regarded as quite extravagant.
Cheng Qianfan likes to buy vegetables and cook.
Carrying the vegetable basket, I walked slowly to the market and selected ingredients according to the dishes I planned to cook.
Whether it is green vegetables, live fish in the fishmonger's basin, or pork hanging on the iron hook of the butcher shop, they are all so warm in his eyes.
This is the smoke and mirrors of the human world.
Bought the ingredients.
Wash it yourself, choose the vegetables, and cook while humming a tune.
This was a moment of considerable peace in his heart.
Countless times, he dreamed of cooking in the kitchen and shouting, "Mom, Dad, sister (brother) is ready to eat," and the family would happily agree, wash their hands, sit together at the dining table, and chat.
My mother will scold my sister (brother) for being naughty.
He raised his glass and clinked it with his father to have a drink.
Unfortunately, it is difficult to realize all this even in a dream.
…
Seeing Li Hao eating deliciously, Cheng Qianfan was also quite happy.
In his heart, Li Hao is like his biological brother.
Li Haozai told him about Cheng Qianfan's time away from Shanghai.
He goes to St. Peter's Church Nursing Home every four or five days to visit Sister Ruolan, Xiaobao and other children in the nursing home.
"Everything is fine with Sister Ruolan, but even though she doesn't say it, you can tell that she cares about you, Brother Xinfan."
"Xiaobao is learning to draw from Sister Ruolan. She said that she has learned to draw. Whenever she thinks of her parents, she can draw them immediately and she will never forget them again."
Cheng Qianfan pretended to stand up and turned around to pour some water, not letting Li Hao see the flash of sadness in his eyes.
“Ah-Dai is still doing odd jobs at Sanweiheng.”
Fan Laosan, the owner of Sanweiheng, is very satisfied with Ah-Dai. Although the half-grown boy can eat better, he looks silly and works hard.
Fan Laosan didn't know that the entire Sanweiheng had been touched by the dumb-looking Dumb.
If Cheng Qianfan was a ruthless policeman and arranged for Dumb to do random things, such as adding some croton to his food, or even poisoning him, he could directly cause Fan Laosan to lose his fortune and his family.
…
"Let Ah-Dai continue to live in Sanweiheng first," Cheng Qianfan said.
‘Zhu Yuan’ was specially arranged by the Secret Service to live in Shuanglongfang Apartment on Father Jin Road.
According to what Song Fuguo said, Yingzuo Yingyi also settled in Shuanglongfang Apartment at that time.
In response to this situation, Cheng Qianfan once conducted an investigation:
Why do these people with hidden identities choose Shuanglongfang Apartment to stay?
This certainly can't be a coincidence.
There must be a reason for it.
The reason Cheng Qianfan figured out by himself is that Shuanglongfang Apartment is one of the more interesting apartments in the Central District. This apartment has been a few years old, so it is a bit dilapidated, and the room rate is relatively affordable.
However, as an earlier apartment in the French Concession, Shuanglongfang Apartment is quite famous.
This is what makes Shuanglongfang special:
If you don’t have much money in your pocket, you can choose to stay here.
If you don't have much money in your pocket, but don't want to lose face, you can also choose this place, it's an old brand.
You're not short of money, but if you don't want to be conspicuous, you can also choose here - whether you're a university professor, a literati, a clerk in the government, a businessman, or a down-and-out traveler, as long as you want to hide your identity, you can stay there.
It's all appropriate here.
Cheng Qianfan believes that Shuanglongfang Apartment is what needs attention.
As a restaurant relatively close to Shuanglongfang Apartment, Sanweiheng has clean food and affordable prices. Especially the braised pig's feet with bean curd made by Fan Laosan himself is delicious and has a good reputation.
It is necessary for Ah-Dai to continue to stay in Sanweiheng.
Ah-Dai is a smart kid. Although he has never been to school, he counted in his mind and found that less than half of the packaged meals delivered were delivered to Shuanglongfang Apartment.
In fact, with Ah-Dai's cleverness, if Ah-Dai continued to stay in Sanweiheng, Cheng Qianfan would be able to grasp not only the Shuanglongfang Apartment, but also all the goings-on on Father Jin Road.
…
"Have you ever looked for him?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"No." Li Hao shook his head. When Cheng Qianfan left Shanghai, he said that if there was any trouble that could not be solved, he should go to He Guan. This is not to say that he has not encountered trouble in this more than a month, but Li Hao himself can do it.
Once it was solved, there was no need to find anything to do with it.
"However, I suspect that Officer He secretly helped." Li Hao said.
The matter was not serious, it was just that two Sanguang coders wanted to get some money from Li Hao, but Li Hao naturally refused and had a fight with them.
He knew that the other party would not give up, so he contacted several friends in the world and was ready to challenge him at any time.
However, what followed was calm.
"I asked someone to inquire, and I heard that a patrol officer warned them."
Cheng Qianfan nodded, knowing that Guan Guan must have taken action quietly.
Although Li Hao did not seek out He Guan, He Guan knew that Li Hao was his.
If He Guan heard about this, he would naturally not stand idly by.
Cheng Qianfan had a smile on his face:
He kept silent, helped secretly, and wouldn't mention it when meeting Cheng Qianfan, so what's the point.
If Li Hao hadn't guessed it, Cheng Qianfan might not even know about it.
"Did anything special happen during this period?" Cheng Qianfan asked, "Is it related to He Guan?"
"Brother Fan, how did you know that Officer He was in trouble?" Li Hao asked in surprise.
"I'm guessing, but I don't know the details yet." Cheng Qianfan said, "You tell me."
…
Hangzhou, Xiongzhen Tower.
Xiaobailou.
In Yu Ping'an's office, in addition to himself and Zhao Yansheng, who protects him, there is also a short, thin young woman.
The woman is about 23 or 24 years old, has short hair, wears black round-rimmed glasses, has an ordinary appearance and is relatively thin.
Yu Pingan stared at her for a long time.
The young woman was slightly panicked, but she could still maintain her composure.
Yu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction in his heart and said with a serious expression, "Zhou Ru, your academic performance at Telegraph is very good. I am very pleased. Do you still remember the oath you made when the telecommunications class started?"
"Be loyal to the leader, serve the party and the country, use what you have learned, and die for the country!" Zhou Ru's voice was not loud, but it was full of power.
"That's good." Yu Ping applauded, "I've called you here this time to discuss your work arrangements. You go to Shanghai."
"The situation in Shanghai is complicated. You are going to join an extremely secretive sleeper group. I can tell you clearly that this job is very dangerous and you may pay the price with your life at any time. Are you prepared for this?"
"Putting down the rebellious party, we will not give up even if we die." Zhou Ru said with a serious face.
"Very good." Yu Ping'an smiled and nodded, "However, when you go to Shanghai this time, your enemies are the Japanese. The Japanese are as cunning and ferocious as the Red Party."
"Zhou Ru is not afraid of death. He would rather die in battle than be a slave to the country's subjugation!"
