Chapter 12: Lunch
"Sister, you are so refreshing, sister is not a twisted person, then I will collect it at the price you said, and give you some extra food stamps or something from my family," Li Hui works in the supply and marketing cooperatives all the year round, and she is used to looking at people's eyes, knowing why she is willing to be cheaper by five yuan, so she also said directly.
Don't underestimate five yuan, many families have a family's living expenses of less than five yuan a month, people are cheerful and generous, she is naturally not a stingy person, take the initiative to give some food stamps and cloth stamps that cannot be used up at home, Li Hui is very happy.
As for the fact that she only needed one fountain pen, but now that she bought two at once, she felt that it was not a problem, and she kept it for herself or took it back to give it away, which was a matter of great dignity.
"Eldest sister, thank you so much," Meng Youyou was very happy and hurriedly said.
Just now she directly said that two are cheap for five yuan, and she also wants to sell a good one, if she can get some tickets, it is naturally the best, after all, people work in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the tickets are the best to get, but if she really doesn't want to give them, she can't do it.
Meng Youyou bought a pot of oil at the supply and marketing cooperative, as well as half a catty of salt, and took some white flour, and even looked at and bought some of the daily necessities such as chopsticks and towels that were missing at home.
Li Hui saw that although there were many kinds of things she bought, there were not many of them, so she had a rough idea in her heart, so she calculated the price and said, "Some of these things are a little more expensive and some are cheaper, and if you buy less, it won't be worth much, except for these things, I will give you another thirty yuan." ”
"Sister Li, thank you so much," Meng Youyou took the three big unity sheets she handed over and thanked him sincerely.
I have to say that meeting Li Hui today really saved her a lot of trouble, otherwise she would have planned to try her luck on the black market, but it would have added a lot of variables.
"Don't always say thank you for what you love me," Li Hui also smiled, her attitude was no longer the arrogance she was at the beginning, "Go back and your relative brought you something good, remember to keep some for me." ”
As for whether it is a relative or not, Li Hui doesn't care, good things are the last word, and the side naturally turns a blind eye.
Meng Youyou responded, and stuffed the small stack of tickets given by Li Hui into his pocket without looking at it, "Eldest sister, then I'll go back first." ”
Li Hui saw her movements, the smile on her face widened, and helped her lift the things, "Then you slow down on the road." ”
She likes such straightforward people, and the feeling of being trusted is naturally good, if she opens it one by one in front of her, Li Hui can't say anything, but she will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.
Meng Youyou's two hands were full of things, and he couldn't go anywhere else, so he only asked someone for directions, and took a shortcut back to the place agreed with Jiang Chuan.
When I saw the sky, it was still early, and I was afraid that I would have to wait.
Meng Youyou touched his empty stomach and sighed, he knew that he would go to find a place to fill his stomach first, and then he would save the inconvenience of taking so many things now.
She's also stupid, if she buys a bread at the supply and marketing cooperative, it's fine, but she is only so forgetful that she doesn't remember how to solve her lunch at all.
Jiang Chuan found someone to unload the goods on the tractor, went to the agricultural machinery factory again, found a place to park the tractor, and prepared to have a meal and then go to do his own business.
When Jiang Chuan drove the tractor over, he saw the people under the shade of the trees at a glance, as well as the large and small paper bags on the ground around her.
"Why are you so early?" Meng Youyou heard the voice, quickly stood up, and asked loudly.
In fact, she had been waiting for a while, and she had just asked someone for the time, and it was only one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still a long time before the four o'clock they had agreed.
I was worried about how to pass the time, but I didn't expect people to come.
"I'm doing things quickly," Jiang Chuan said casually, got off the tractor, raised his chin and motioned to her those things, "You bought so many things in such a while?" ”
Meng Youyou nodded, and when he saw him coming over to get it, he quickly took two bags, "No way, my mother and I left the Meng family, and now we don't have anything to live in that place." ”
Originally, she didn't want to explain, but when people helped him, Meng Youyou didn't want to be too indifferent.
"That's right, if you have something missing, you can ask me to bring it for you," Jiang Chuan said as he carried his things to the car.
As he spoke, he realized that his tone was too familiar, and he added, "Anyway, I often come to the county, and they always ask me to help bring anything." ”
As for who they were, Jiang Chuan didn't explain it anymore.
Meng Youyou nodded hurriedly, people were willing to help, it was rare to take the initiative to speak, she naturally couldn't refuse, and no one could tell if there would really be a place to trouble him when she turned around.
"Thank you in advance."
Jiang Chuan smiled, "Let's go eat first, I haven't eaten yet." ”
Just in the agricultural machinery factory, a friend he knew invited him to lunch together, Jiang Chuan wanted to run errands, so he declined, but the matter was not done, and there was no time to eat.
"Okay," Meng Youyou was stunned for a moment, thinking that he must have finished eating a long time ago, and he was ready to go home directly with his things, but he didn't expect to be able to eat before going home.
She had been hungry for a long time.
Meng Youyou didn't know the road very well, sitting on the tractor, only feeling that Jiang Chuan had been walking around for more than ten minutes, and finally stopped at the door of a noodle restaurant.
"Come down," Jiang Chuan parked the car in the vacant seat next to him, glanced at the position, and pointed with his finger, "You don't have to take things around, we can just see it when we sit over there." ”
There is no need to take things, Meng Youyou is naturally happy, since he said that he will not lose it, then she is even less worried.
"Do you come to this house often?" Meng Youyou walked over and sat down in the direction he pointed, and said without words.
Jiang Chuan glanced at the boss and raised his hand, which was regarded as a greeting, and he was still eating at this time, and there were still some people in the store.
"Well, because it's easy to park here, and the noodles here taste good," Jiang Chuan nodded and explained.
In fact, this noodle restaurant also belongs to a state-run restaurant, but it sells all kinds of noodles separately, and the taste is not bad, but the attitude of the service staff is not good.
Fortunately, Jiang Chuan often comes, so everyone knows him, plus his appearance is not bad, and the waitress is not too arrogant towards him, of course, he will not say this.
"The fried noodles here are good, would you like to try them?" Jiang Chuan recommended it again.
"Okay, then let's have a bowl of fried noodles," Meng Youyou replied leisurely.
In fact, she doesn't like to eat pasta very much, but making it delicious is another matter, and in today's living conditions, where are there so many opportunities for her to choose?
