The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s Chapter 422

Chapter 422

Even Director Lin could barely get a word in in situations like this, let alone Tong Xuelu.
Truth was, there was no point for her to be there. Other than standing in the cold wind for over an hour, she couldn’t really get a word in.
It was all very pointless.
Tong Xuelu followed in the back. She even knew to just get into the second car when Director Gao stopped her after she had one foot inside the car.
“Hey, that female comrade. You come over to this car.”
Tong Xuelu looked around. It appeared that she was the only female there. For certain Director Gao was speaking to her.
She had no choice but to walk up there and said with a stiff smile in the cold wind, “Director Gao, I am Tong Xuelu, the manager of East Wind Restaurant.”
Director Gao gave her a look. “So you are Manager Tong. Your reputation precedes you. Here I thought you are a secretary. I didn’t know you are so young!”
As he spoke, Director Gao shoved a thermos into her chest and told her, “You, hold this. Be careful not to bring the inside.”
Tong Xuelu, “……”
So she was here to be a tool?
Director Gao proceeded to get inside the backseat after handing her the thermos. Tong Xuelu had no choice but to get into the passenger seat.
Director Gao smiled as he introduced the scenes and structures to Jie Chengzhou.
The new China had not yet been established when Jie Chengzhou left the country. The country was not in its best of state after the war when he departed. It was nothing like how it was right now.
Looking at the scenery with greed, Jie Chengzhou’s eyes were welled up with tears.
The introduction lasted for half an hour and Director Gao talked so much that he became very thirsty. “Would you like some water, Comrade Jie?”
Jie Chengzhou turned and shook his head. “No, thank you. I’ve had some water on the plane. I am not thirsty right now.”
Comrade Xiao Jie also declined the offer.
Seeing that neither one of them cared for water, he felt awkward to be drinking alone. Not to mention that drinking water in a car was not the easiest of all things.
Except that he was already tired of talking. Suddenly, he caught sight of Tong Xuelu’s round back of her head and decided to drag her into this.
“Don’t be fooled by how young our Comrade Tong looks and how rounded she dressed. She was actually East Wind Restaurant’s chef and manager who also took first place in a competition with candidates from the top 12 tier-1 restaurants. Words had it that she’s a superb cook and she was be responsible for your meals during your stay.”
Tong Xuelu, “……” I am really glad that you are praising me, but you didn’t quite need to mention he rounded part.
Jie Chengzhou and son both had their attention on Tong Xuelu after that introduction.
Jie Chengzhou, “The next generation is always up and coming. It was certainly impressive how much Comrade Tong had accomplished at such young age. I look forward to seeing your future accomplishment.”
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, “Thank you so much, Comrade Jie. I do agree very much with your last statement. Our country is certainly heading to good places and it will certainly become a super country that the whole world will lay eyes on!”
As Chinese, Tong Xuelu’s words moved everyone there.
Who wouldn’t want their country to become better and stronger?
A country must be strong to be able to defend itself!
“Well said, Comrade Tong. I am sure that our country will become a super country in the near future!” Jie Chengzhou looked at Tong Xuelu approvingly.
“Oh right, Director gal said that Comrade Tong is a chef. I am curious which type of cuisine are in your repertoire?”
Tong Xuelu answered his question with a question, “What type of cuisine are you looking for, Comrade Jie?”
Jie Chengzhou said, “I wonder if Comrade Tong will be able to make a plate of Yangzhou fried rice?”
Yangzhou fried rice?
Here she thought that Jie Chengzhou was native from capital city.
Before Tong Xuelu could respond, Director Gao interjected, “Yes, Comrade Tong can make any dishes!”
Tong Xuelu, “……” You can shut you mouth now, Director Gao.
That being said, Yangzhou fried rice was in her repertoire.
