(Word Count: 1753)

 

In two months, Han Ze’s noodle stall has formed a fixed customer base. Most of those who have money in their pockets don’t mind spending ten yuan on a bowl of noodles. They have their own opinions. In their minds, the noodles are worth the price. Even if the noodle stall is simple, they are willing to pay for it. Those who don’t have money in their pockets know that the noodles sold in this noodle stall are expensive, so they won’t even ask.

 

Although Shuangji Town is only a township market, the market is very large and bustling. There are many wealthy and powerful families in the town. Generally speaking, wealthy people like to eat. Not only do they like to eat, they also like to eat something new.

 

Knowing that there is such a delicious noodle stall in the town, most people have come to eat it, and most of them who have eaten it once and will come again. If conditions permit, as long as there is a market, Han Ze will set up a noodle stall, and they will come to eat a bowl of noodles. This has become a habit for many people in Shuangji Town.

 

Xiao Wang from the police station likes to eat very much, and his mouth is picky. Since he ate the noodles sold by Han Ze’s noodle stall, he can no longer eat noodles made by others, and he wishes Han Ze would set up a stall every day.

 

After waiting for the market day, Xiao Wang got up early and waited in anticipation at the place where Han Ze used to set up his stall. However, he did not see Han Ze, and there was no noodle stall.   He felt so disappointed.

 

He wanted to run to Han Ze’s house and grab his collar to ask him why he did not come to set up the stall, making him unable to eat delicious noodles. You know, he relied on this bowl of noodles to go on living.

 

Fortunately, he still had some reason and knew that he was a public servant and could not do anything illegal. He could only think that if he could not eat noodles today, he would have to eat more next time at the market to make up for today’s noodles.

 

There were many people who had the same idea as Xiao Wang, waiting to eat more noodles at the next market. Who knew that on the day of the market again, Han Ze still did not come out to set up the stall, which made those who were used to eating noodles at Han Ze’s noodle stall anxious. Could it be that Han Ze would not sell noodles in the future, or was he delayed by something at home?

 

Xiao Wang felt like he would go crazy if he did not eat noodles at Han Ze’s noodle stall again. During his break, he asked around why Han Ze did not come to set up the stall.

After asking around, he found out that the pork seller was Han Ze’s cousin. Zhang Lei knew why Han Ze didn’t come to set up the stall. After all, he accompanied Han Ze to the hospital for a sterilization operation. This was Han Ze’s privacy. Even if the other party was from the police station, he didn’t intend to tell him. He just said that Han Ze had something to do and would come to set up the stall after a while.

 

When Xiao Wang heard this, he felt disappointed. How long was a while? He should give a specific number of days. Zhang Lei looked at Xiao Wang and insisted on not telling the truth.

 

Han Ze had rested at home for half a month and finally showed up in the town. When the diners who were waiting at Han Ze’s noodle stall saw him coming, their eyes lit up and their mouths watered. They could finally eat noodles. They waited eagerly for him to boil water and cook noodles. Some people even offered to help him light the fire.

 

Han Ze, however, looked apologetic and said, “I have something to do today and I don’t have time to sell noodles.”

 

When the diners heard his words, it was like a basin of cold water poured over their heads, and their hearts were chilled. There was a smart person who turned his eyes and asked, “Chef Han, if you want to do something, just go and do it. After you’re done, you can come back to set up a stall to sell noodles. We’ll wait for you.”

When the diners heard what that person said, their eyes lit up and they all agreed, willing to wait for him. They were willing to do anything for a bowl of noodles.

 

Han Ze hesitated and explained, “Registering the child is a bit troublesome. I may not be able to finish it in the morning.”

 

“Register? Do you have all the documents? It won’t take long to complete all the documents.” Xiao Wang said with a smile.

 

“Xiao Wang is from the police station. Just go to him to register the child.” Someone said.

 

Han Ze was stunned. He didn’t expect that the handsome young man who often ate noodles at the noodle stall was actually from the police station. He said embarrassedly, “It’s better not to trouble Xiao Wang.”

The fourth and fifth girls were born in excess of the limit. They didn’t have birth permits, only birth certificates. Their documents were definitely incomplete, so they could only pay a fine to register the child.

 

“No trouble, no trouble, this is my job. Let’s go, let’s register the child quickly, and then you can set up a stall.” Xiao Wang was obviously more anxious than Han Ze.

 

Han Ze was walking behind Xiao Wang, who smiled and said, “Chef Han, have you ever thought about setting up a stall even when there is no market day?”

 

Han Ze touched his head and said in a naive tone, “I haven’t planned to do so for now. I have young children at home and I have to take care of them. If I could rent a store in town and bring the adults and children to town, it would be possible. However, it is too difficult to find a suitable store in our town.”

 

Xiao Wang nodded. There are quite a lot of customers in their town and it is not easy to find a good store without acquaintances.

Han Ze followed Xiao Wang to his office. Han Ze put the information he had prepared in his bag and a pile of money on the desk in front of Xiao Wang. Xiao Wang was startled and waved his hands and said, “Chef Han, you, what are you doing? I won’t accept bribes.”

 

Han Ze smiled honestly and said, “This is a fine. The child is an extra birth. Isn’t it stipulated that a fine must be paid before the child can be registered?”

 

Xiao Wang breathed a sigh of relief. There were many cases of paying fines to register children. He alone had to handle several cases every day. He said, “Is it a boy?”

 

Generally, only boys were born before paying fines to register their children. Fees for girls were less common.

 

Han Ze pushed the information in front of Xiao Wang and said nervously, “Girls, two girls, how much fine do you want? I also want to change the names of the three girls above.”

Xiao Wang opened Han Ze’s household registration book and the information he brought and carefully checked them page by page. Han Chu’s family gave birth to five girls in a row? How unlucky must they be to have so many girls? Then he began to admire him a little bit, for he kept so many girls by his side and didn’t even give them away.

 

After checking the last page, Xiao Wang was stunned, it turned out to be a sterilization report, he looked at Han Ze: “Chef Han, is this a sterilization report?”

 

He saw many families hiding from each other just to have a son, Chef Han actually took the initiative to sterilize and gave up on having a son, which surprised him.

 

Han Ze smiled and nodded, and said sincerely: “In order to respond to the national family planning policy, I won’t have any more children. I have to comply with the national policy anyway.”

 

Xiao Wang’s mouth twitched slightly, to comply with the national policy you have so many girls?

 

Han Ze looked at his expression, knew what he was thinking, and explained: “My mother insisted on having children, we as sons had no choice but to have children. We already have five girls, there is no need to have more, so I went to the hospital to have a sterilization operation without telling my family. If they don’t like it, there is nothing we can do.”

 

Xiao Wang didn’t expect Chef Han to be such an upright and law-abiding person. He raised his thumb and praised: “If everyone has the same idea as Han Chu, the country’s family planning policy will not have to be so strict.”

 

Han Ze touched his head and said: “What kind of culture is this? They are afraid of doing something illegal. They should do whatever the country tells them to do. It is absolutely right to follow the country’s policies. ”

 

Xiao Wang was even happier and said with a smile, “Based on your idea, I have to register the children’s household registration as well.”

 

What’s more, Chef Han is such a good cook. If he tries to please him now, maybe he can even eat other food he makes.

 

Han Ze smiled.

 

“Chef Han, tell me the children’s names and I’ll fill them in.” Xiao Wang said, “After registering the household registration, let’s set up the stall quickly.”

 

Han Ze was stunned for a moment and said, “I’ll set up the stall.”

 

“Yes, yes, you’ll set up the stall. I haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I’m just waiting for your noodles to satisfy my craving. You can’t not set up the stall for so long next time.” Xiao Wang said, “The fine for two children won’t be that much money. You can take the rest of the money back. ”

 

Han Ze watched Xiao Wang fill in the names of several girls in the household registration book one by one, and his heart relaxed.
