2591: The Twitching Right Eyelid

Nie Wen glanced at Gu Bing's back, hooked the corner of her mouth into a smile, and then shook her head: "I don't know either, you ask Tang Lin."

"Forget it if you won't say." Zhou Jie pouted. If Nie Wen wouldn't say, could Tang Lin say? It was just that this way, Zhou Jie was even more curious in her heart, but there was nothing she could do if Nie Wen wouldn't tell her.

Several people chatted as they entered the small canteen. Yesterday, the Procurement Section got three big fat black-haired pigs, each weighing over 500 jin, which were slaughtered early this morning.

In the morning, the master chef stewed a big pot of slaughtered pork dishes for the leadership to eat at noon. As soon as Zhou Andong arrived, the female employees of the canteen brought over two big basins. One big basin contained sauerkraut, blood sausage, and frozen tofu, and the other big basin was filled with big bones, fragrant and mouth-watering just by looking at it.

Immediately after, another big plate of thinly sliced pork belly and a bowl of garlic sauce were brought over.

"Come on, don't just look, let's start."

Zhou Andong first picked up a big bone and put it on a plate in front of Zhou Jie. Then, he took a big bone for Nie Wen.

"Eating bones requires not caring about image, just hold it and gnaw."

After finishing, Zhou Andong also picked up a big bone, lowered his head, and took a bite: "Fragrant!"

Zhou Jie stared blankly at Zhou Andong lowering his head and eating fiercely, then looked at Tang Lin and Gu Bing. They were all the same, holding bones with their two big claws and gnawing, and they didn't seem to have washed their hands either.

Just as Zhou Jie was in a dilemma in her heart, her peripheral vision saw Nie Wen next to her also grabbing a bone with her hand and gnawing.

Zhou Jie opened her mouth slightly, looking at Nie Wen in disbelief. Is this still the elegant Wen Jie she knew?

"What are you looking at?" Nie Wen raised her head and saw the dumbfounded Zhou Jie, so she laughed: "Didn't Factory Director Zhou already say, don't care about image when gnawing big bones, just eat."

Zhou Jie took a deep breath, as if to gather all the strength in her body into her hands. Then she slowly stretched out both hands and grabbed the bone. Immediately after, she closed her eyes, opened her mouth, and bit off a big piece of meat fiercely.

Just at the moment when her teeth touched the bone, a rich meaty fragrance and a unique sauerkraut flavor surged into her mouth at the same time. Zhou Jie's eyes opened instantly, her mouth began to move slowly, and when she swallowed the meat in her mouth, she couldn't stop anymore.

Zhou Jie had lived in Jingcheng with her grandfather since she was a child. When she was ten or so, her grandfather passed away, and she returned to her parents' side, living in the south ever since.

But whether she was by her grandfather's side when she was young or later returned to her parents' side in the south, she had eaten plenty of ribs, but this was her first time eating big bones. Moreover, this was big bones stewed in a sauerkraut pot. That unique fragrance almost made her swallow her tongue into her stomach.

Especially this bold way of eating, grabbing the big bone directly with both hands to gnaw, brought Zhou Jie an unprecedented novel feeling. She, who usually didn't touch even a tiny bit of fat meat, ate several slices of pork belly dipped in garlic sauce.

This meal made Zhou Jie give a thumbs up repeatedly. She ate the frozen tofu, blood sausage, and big bones until her mouth was full of oil.

After eating, when she came out of the canteen, Zhou Jie was still saying it was delicious, her eyes full of yearning: "When winter comes, I must go to the Northeast to eat authentic slaughtered pork dishes once."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Our canteen master chef is from the Northeast, and the slaughtered pork dishes he makes are absolutely authentic. However, the sauerkraut pickled in summer and the frozen tofu frozen in the refrigerator are indeed a bit different in taste from the sauerkraut pickled in winter and the naturally frozen tofu."

"There is also big tofu. The taste of Jingcheng big tofu, how should I put it, is simply hard to describe. If you have the chance to go to the Northeast, eat Northeast big tofu once, especially the tofu from our Jiangzhou, I guarantee you will want to eat it a second time, leaving you with an endless aftertaste. Naturally, the frozen tofu frozen naturally will also have a different taste and texture."

Zhou Jie's eyes were full of little stars, and her drool was almost flowing out. Looking at this little woman's chubby face and plump figure, she should be a thorough foodie.

"If you have time around New Year's Day, I will take you to Arong Banner to eat real farm-style slaughtered pork dishes. The pigs are slaughtered on the spot, I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Before the Spring Festival, Zhou Andong also had to go to Qishi to see the construction progress of the Qiudongfang Shopping Plaza, especially the water plant in Arong Banner, which was the top priority. He really couldn't rest easy without going to see it personally.

"I am an idle person, I have time whenever." Zhou Jie looked at Zhou Andong with full longing: "You must not forget to notify me."

"Rest assured, I won't forget." Zhou Andong nodded and looked at Tang Lin and Nie Wen: "If you two have time, you can also go together, just treat it as a trip to relax."

"Let's see!" Nie Wen said with a smile: "If we have time, we can go stroll around."

"Wenwen!" Zhou Jie held Nie Wen's hand, shaking it vigorously, and said coquettishly: "You go too, just treat it as accompanying me, okay?"

Nie Wen said helplessly: "Alright, alright, I will go, okay? Hurry up and stop shaking, my bones are about to be shaken apart by you."

Zhou Jie laughed: "It's a deal, we will go together."

Secretary Gu, who was like a transparent person, was also turning his brain. Since everyone is going, my wife is from Xiangjiang and has never been to the Northeast. When the time comes, I will take her to go around too. Zhou Andong, this Zhou skin-peeler, doesn't let my wife rest, so we will give ourselves a holiday and go out to relax.

Arriving downstairs at the factory office, Tang Lin, Nie Wen, and Zhou Jie got into the car and left.

Zhou Andong took a cigarette from his pocket and threw it to Gu Bing: "Really not going to the Municipal Bureau with me to stroll around!"

Gu Bing took out a lighter and lit the cigarette, saying very crisply: "Not going."

"If you aren't going, forget it, I will go myself." Zhou Andong also lit a cigarette himself, then opened the car door and got in: "Are you really not going?"

Gu Bing didn't even look at Zhou Andong and turned to leave, leaving Zhou Andong with a dashing back.

Zhou Andong laughed "heh", slammed the car door shut: "Go to the Municipal Bureau!"

Yue Guoqiang leaned tiredly on his office chair, his body leaning back slightly, his eyes closed, as if he wanted to release all his fatigue. His fingers rubbed his temples gently, trying to alleviate the wave of sleepiness that was rushing in like a tide, but the effect didn't seem obvious.

Just yesterday, the case in Jiangjiang Province that had lasted for a full year finally came to an end. This case involved more than 320 people, including officials, state-owned enterprise leaders, and people in other fields. Such a huge and complex group of people involved, with such high levels and wide ranges, was rare.

Next, it was integrating rare earths. Those involved enterprises would also take this opportunity to reform and reorganize, and there were also those involved who would be prosecuted. This was another long process, and it wouldn't be finished without two years, but these had nothing to do with him anymore.

Originally, he was going to rest for a day, but a dismemberment case two days ago forced him to come to work. Because according to the report from below, this dismemberment case was very similar to several dismemberment cases that occurred in Jilin Province and Longjiang Province. After analysis, it was highly likely that it was committed by the same murderer.

Yue Guoqiang went directly to the Criminal Police Team in the morning and held an analysis meeting with the special case team for the whole morning. He ate at the Criminal Police Team at noon, thinking about going back to the office to rest for a while. It was just that as soon as he entered the office, his right eyelid kept twitching, and he always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Just then, his office door was knocked, and his right eyelid, which had been twitching non-stop, miraculously stopped twitching.

"Come in!" Yue Guoqiang shouted, still pondering in his heart, this eyelid suddenly started twitching, and now it's suddenly fine, there wouldn't really be anything to it, right?

The office door was pushed open, and the secretary walked in: "Director, Factory Director Zhou from the Woolen Mill is here, he wants to see you."

Yue Guoqiang's eyelid started twitching again, and a thought immediately appeared in his mind: "Zhou Andong coming to find me is definitely not a good thing, otherwise how could my right eyelid keep twitching?" ===== CHAPTER 2571 =====
