Chapter 30, the mess room
The three-month new recruit life is about to end. Each new recruit has his own little one in his heart. This special period is very sensitive, just like a gunpowder barrel is just a little bit. Therefore, the company is very careful, beware of all kinds of events, and ensures a smooth division of troops.
But it was raining again and again. The mistake of these veterans in the kitchen team caused a conflict to break out, and the person who caused the incident was that brother Huang Buqing.
The life of the recruit company is almost over, and the company instructs the kitchen team to improve the food.
When dinner time was up, everyone happily lined up to the cafeteria, and the smell of pork came from it. Wow, I finally had a meal of meat. The oil and water in my stomach were gone, and everyone who was greedy emitted a green light like a hungry wolf in their eyes.
But when the dishes that came out were mostly cabbage, carrots and other vegetables, we were all stunned by the joy. Didn’t we say that we had extra meals? Is this bullshit? I just smelled the smell of pork, but why didn’t we even see a piece of pig skin? Isn’t this obviously bullying the recruits?
Although everyone was full of anger, they didn't dare to get angry casually, so they could only hold back and eat.
I never thought that I just took a bite of rice, hey, why did the rice smell like diesel? "Puff", almost everyone vomited it.
"What kind of rice is this? Why is it smelling diesel?" Someone started to get into trouble.
"Yes, didn't you agree to have a meal? Why are all vegetables and the meat dishes going there?" Someone responded immediately.
For a moment, the cafeteria began to stir up, and curses started to swear.
"Let's go to the kitchen team and check them out!" A familiar voice came from beside him, and he turned his head to look.
Haha, it’s Huang Buqing again, this guy is so kind!
Thinking again, Oh, today this guy is on duty, responsible for our class to cook and serve food, and also to clean up the dishes and tables for us, clean and organize them. This is his duty.
"Go, go, go together." Many soldiers responded and followed.
"Don't go except for the on-duty staff of each shift, eat your meal." The platoon leader on duty spoke.
The rest of us had to stay at the dinner table and wait for the news. The honest Wu Xiaozhang still ate with his bowl. I couldn't stand it anymore: "Wu Xiaozhang, stop eating, what a shit."
Wu Xiaozhang looked up at us, still chewing the unpalatable diesel rice in his mouth. I snatched his rice bowl and threw it on the table, and the rice was spread all over the table.
"Huang Aimin, what are you doing? Do you want to cause trouble?" The honest and steady squad leader got angry rarely.
I slapped the table and shouted: "Isn't it better? What kind of shit is this? Do you think of us as monkeys?"
"That's right, you can't treat prisoners like this, it's too bullying." Some of the recruits agreed.
The cafeteria began to stir up. When the platoon leader on duty saw that it was not good, he took out a whistle and blew up the "Hurricane Hurricane" and suddenly became quiet.
The platoon leader on duty stared at me, and I didn't move in the face of his eyes. The atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense, and I was also ready to pick up the stool and defend myself if the platoon leader took action. Qin Zhongfa, the deputy squad leader, held me tightly, and Feng Wenquan, also grabbed me, advised me not to calm down and never to do anything.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the kitchen, and the loudest one was indeed Huang Buqing.
Not good, something happened, there was a fight.
Almost everyone immediately reacted this idea. I was the first to rush out of the cafeteria and ran towards the kitchen. Behind me, the sound of a "rattle" kicking over the stool, and the squad leaders and platoon leaders loudly stopped it.
"Don't be impulsive, don't do anything, come back!"...
I ran to the kitchen in anger and saw several soldiers on duty headed by Huang Buqing, pulling and pushing with several veterans in the kitchen squad.
I grabbed Huang Buqing and asked, "What's going on?"
Huang Buqing said angrily: "I came over and wanted to ask why there was no meat dish in the kitchen. There was no one in the kitchen. I ran to their class dormitory and saw the door was closed tightly. I just called someone, but the light suddenly turned off inside. I was very surprised and lay down on the crack in the door and looked in. I was so angry that I saw it."
I turned around and saw a large number of recruits gathered behind me, and interrupted him to say: "Be simple, let's talk about it, what have you seen?"
Huang Buqing said loudly: "I lay down on the crack in the door and saw that the people in the kitchen were hiding in the dormitory to drink and eat meat. I was so angry that I kicked the door open."
I deliberately guided, "How do you know they are drinking and eating meat? Don't they turn off the lights?"
My words resonated with many new recruits, and there were many discussions on the spot.
Huang Buqing slammed his stomach and cried, "Oh, brother, I haven't smelled the meat for a long time. The braised pork floating inside made my legs flutter. With the smell of wine, I smelled the stars in my eyes and almost sat on the ground."
His words caused laughter in the audience, and some people cheered and applauded.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Damn it, let them explain clearly, otherwise you will beat them up and don't think that our new recruits are easy to bully." There were more and more people at the scene, and the noise became louder and louder, and it was about to lose control.
The kitchen squad leader on the side was panicked when he saw that the situation was not good and desperately pulled his soldiers back.
"What are you doing? Do you want to cause trouble?" The majestic voice of the company commander came from behind.
When everyone looked back, they found that not only the company commander, but also the instructor and several platoon leaders behind them. The noise just now turned into silence.
The instructor asked in a steady tone: "Do you have any opinions on the food when you go to the kitchen? Why don't you report it up through normal procedures? Can the problem be solved by making trouble in the kitchen like this?"
The instructor asked three seemingly peaceful but very heavy questions in a row, and we were speechless. Everyone felt that it was a bit too much. Many people involuntarily turned their heads to Huang Buqing, the leader of the riot.
I was secretly worried about this kid, so I was about to divide the troops. Your kid will definitely be affected if he makes trouble.
Huang Buqing obviously felt that the consequences were somewhat difficult, so he lowered his head a little discouraged.
"Why is there a diesel smell in the rice? Why are there no meat dishes, all vegetables? Didn't it mean to improve the food?" Huang Buqing muttered in a low voice.
I also said dissatisfiedly: "Report, I promised to add a meal to us today, but why there are no meat dishes and meat? Instead, there is a smell of diesel in the rice. We did not cause trouble, so the kitchen team needs to explain it clearly."
"Yes, this meal is too bad, but the cooking team is secretly eating meat and drinking in the room, so that they can make it clear." The crowd immediately agreed.
The company commander turned his head and asked the kitchen squad leader: "What's going on? Is it true that the soldiers mentioned?"
The cooking squad leader glanced at the company commander and whispered: "The rice and diesel I bought last week were placed in a truck. The diesel barrel lid on the road was not tightened and it spilled into the rice."
"Why are you still giving us new soldiers food, and you veterans eat meat?" Someone questioned loudly.
I caught a key question: "Report, today is not a holiday, and we cannot drink alcohol according to regulations. We have no alcohol in our meals, but why do they hide in the dormitory for drinking in violation of regulations? Please let the chief observe clearly."
"Yes! Punish them!" The crowd was excited. The kitchen squad leader beside him was sweating on his forehead and retreated guiltily, not daring to look at the company commander and instructor.
"Cooking Squad Leader!" the company commander shouted majestic, and asked with a pale face: "Are they saying true?"
"Company Commander, I..." The kitchen squad leader retreated to the corner, lowered his head with a mistake, waiting for Aike.
The company commander obviously gave face to the veteran and said to the kitchen squad leader: "You go to the company headquarters to wait for us and we will talk to you later." After saying that, he turned around and whispered a few words to the instructor. After hearing this, the instructor nodded frequently.
Then, the company commander announced loudly: "Comrades, I just discussed with the instructor. Today's problem is mainly in the kitchen team. We must investigate and deal with it seriously and give you an answer. At the same time, the kitchen team is instructed to give you a new meal tomorrow, and the instructor will personally supervise and implement it. We must ensure that everyone can eat meat, fish, eat openly, and take enough!"
The company commander's words received huge cheers, and some people shouted: "Long live the Communist Party!", "Long live the company commander!", and the audience burst into laughter again, and the company commander also smiled and said: "How can I, the young company commander, be side by side with the Communist Party? Don't put a high hat on me, I can understand."
The instructor also said to everyone: "We will definitely give everyone an explanation on this matter, let's go back first."
All of our new recruits were about to leave when they suddenly heard the company commander say, "This soldier, you go to the company headquarters." When they looked back, hehe, the company commander's hand was indeed pointing at Huang Buqing. Now they were really worried about this guy.
