Chapter 11: Settling In
On the way to being abducted and trafficked, they had already raised their vigilance, so they took Wu Jun's warning seriously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Soon, Wu Jun brought the two to this military guest house, but in fact, this guest house was not opened by the army, but a regular guest house funded by the government and cooperated with the army.
Therefore, most of the people who come to stay here are troops or some public officials, and the personnel structure is single and regular, so this is also the most reassuring place for Wu Jun.
It's just that it's not cheap, and you still need to show a work permit or military ID for accommodation.
Fortunately, Wu Jun has a military ID, he went to the front desk to open a room for the two, now these units are the same as the major communes, belong to the state-owned, there is no self-employed in this era, private bosses, basically those shops, restaurants, guest houses, are all state-owned enterprises, the staff inside, as small as the waiters are iron rice bowls that eat public grain, and there is no competition in various industries, which has derived many service industries with bad attitudes.
For example, at the front desk of this guest house, there is a middle-aged woman, who combs the typical bag and bun of this era, a small floral blouse, black cotton trousers, and a pair of black cotton shoes.
When she saw Wu Jun walking over, dressed in a washed military uniform that had turned a little white, she raised her eyebrows a little impatiently, she didn't even have the desire to speak, and knitted the sweater in her hand.
Wu Jun was a little embarrassed, but he still asked, "This comrade, is there any room available?"
The middle-aged woman looked up lazily and glanced at a few people, "There is still a room, which of you lives? Do you have a marriage certificate? ā
Eh, Wu Jun and Hu Lan's faces turned red because of this aunt's straightforward words.
Wu Jun said, "No, we are not ......"
When the aunt heard this, her eyebrows furrowed, "No?!Aren't you still coming to open a house?!Beware of arresting you all!"
Wu Jun was speechless, he rummaged through his jacket pocket, took out his military ID card, and then said, "Comrade, you misunderstood, this is my military ID card, my relatives came to visit relatives, and they stayed here for two days, I don't live, I live in the army, and the two girls live." ā
When the aunt heard him say this, she lazily raised her hand and turned out Wu Jun's military ID card, opened it, and saw that it was just a small platoon commander, and the deep affection of contempt on her face was even stronger.
It's just that she still knows her own job, and seeing that men and women don't live together, she opened a room for them, and Wu Jun took out a five-yuan deposit from his pocket, and the cost of living for a day is one yuan.
After arranging the accommodation of Hu Lan and Chen Xiaobai, Wu Jun stuffed five yuan and two tickets into Hu Lan's hand before leaving, and repeatedly told them to pay attention to safety, so he left in a hurry and rushed back to the army.
After Wu Jun left, Hu Lan and Chen Xiaobai returned to the room, and the police at the Nanlian Police Station in Bianhe Town had already found clothes for them to change into.
So although they were wearing dirt, at least they weren't torn clothes.
At this time, there were no toilets and bathrooms in the guest house rooms, and if they wanted to take a bath, they had to walk to the end of the corridor, where there were special public toilets and bathrooms, which were separate for men and women.
So when they came back from freshening up, it was already time for dinner.
Chen Xiaobai called Hu Lan and wanted to ask her to come back to eat some steamed buns, steamed buns or something, but as soon as she entered the room, she saw Hu Lan lying on the bed, her face pale, holding her stomach, and she looked uncomfortable.
Thinking that Hu Lan had just taken a bath and came back in a hurry after a while, she felt strange, she would see her uncomfortable appearance, and thought she was sick, so she immediately stepped forward and said, "Xiaolan, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with you? Do you want to go to the health center to see?"
Hu Lan looked up at her weakly, then a little entangled and didn't know how to speak, opened her mouth repeatedly, then shook her head, and then weakly spit out a few words, "I have menstrual cramps......"
"Oh," although the voice was very small, Chen Xiaobai still heard it, she nodded understandingly, the woman's aunt once a month, there is no way, but she still asked kindly, "Do you want to buy you some brown sugar and make some hot water to drink?"
Hu Lan shook his head, "No need, Xiaobai just pour me some hot water, by the way, the money and food stamps are on the table over there, you go out and buy two steamed buns or steamed buns and come back......"
Chen Xiaobai first poured a cup of hot water for Hu Lan from the thermos, then put it on the bedside, and then took a dollar from the table, "Then I'll go." ā
"Be careful on the road, go and get back quickly. ā
"Well, don't worry. ā
Chen Xiaobai was wearing a shirt with a wide blue background cotton cloth and small flowers given by a kind aunt from the Nanlian Police Station before, the color had already been washed and faded, even the cuffs and neckline were touched, and the pants were also given to her by a female policeman, a pair of dark blue cotton pants that were also wide, and the knees and trouser legs were white.
Although the clothes are old, Chen Xiaobai does not dislike them at all, who is not difficult in this era? It is already very good that people can help each other, how can she be qualified to dislike it? She is already very satisfied to have a set of clothes without patches.
Although it is the spring season of April, the weather is still a little cold.
At this time, a shirt looked extraordinarily thin, and when I walked on the road, the wind blew, and I felt a little cold.
Chen Xiaobai rubbed his hands on his arms, and he should hurry up and buy the buns and go back.
In this day and age, there are no self-employed people on the streets, all the shops are state-owned, and whoever dares to open their own shops is capitalism!
So don't think about what bun shops you can find on the street, snack bars or whatnot.
The only place where you can buy food is the canteen, and this guest house should have a canteen.
Sure enough, she asked the waiter, who told her the location of the cafeteria, which was on the street behind the guest house.
She walked quickly, this canteen is also a shop along the street, because it is almost time to eat, and there are not the most people in it, but there are quite a few.
Chen Xiaobai first looked at the price list posted at the door, meat buns, two cents each, big steamed buns, one penny.
It's really cheap.
But I don't think I have much money in my hand now, so I guess I can save a little.
So she didn't buy the meat buns for two cents, and she bought two big steamed buns for one penny. At this time, in addition to money, you also need a ticket to buy food, you need a meal ticket to buy food, you need a meat ticket to buy meat, and even if you want to buy a bicycle, you have to have a bicycle ticket, a watch ticket, and so on.
