Chapter 764: Eating in the Dining Car

When Jiang Xiaobai woke up, he turned his head and saw Jiang Shan sitting at the head of the bed in the lower bunk, leaning against the car window, looking at the passing scenery outside the window through the glass, looking very happy with a smile on his face.

"When did you get up?"

Jiang Xiaobai asked, and got up from the bed.

"Baba, are you awake?"

Hearing Jiang Xiaobai's voice, the little guy turned around and said, "I got up for a while, and I didn't bother when I saw that Baba was sleeping soundly." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Xiaobai's mouth, her daughter became more and more sensible, and asked with concern, "Do you want to go to the toilet?" ”

Jiang Shan nodded.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled, took out towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste and toilet paper from the suitcase, and took her daughter to the toilet and wash.

There are very few passengers in sleeper cars, unlike hard-seat cars that have to queue up to go to the toilet.

After washing up with Jiang Shan, the two returned to the card position, Jiang Xiaobai closed the door and watched the scenery outside with his daughter.

Fields and mountains flash in front of the window, and the misty smoke rising from the farm in the distance makes people feel refreshed.

Especially when the winter sun shines on the vast fields, the scenery is picturesque

"Sanshan, are you hungry?"

After looking at it for a while, Jiang Xiaobai looked at his watch, it was almost eleven o'clock, and he asked.

"Baba, I'm really hungry!"

The little guy touched his belly and said.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner." ”

Jiang Shan said in surprise: "Baba, does the train also have a restaurant?" ”

Jiang Xiaobai laughed: "It's not called a restaurant on the train, it's called a dining car." ”

The dining car of the green car is generally in the No. 10 car, and the car where Jiang Xiaobai is located is the No. 8 car.

Walk through the empty corridor of the sleeper car and enter car No. 9, which is a hard-seated car, which is not full, but it is also full, and the empty seats are lined with sleeping people, and snoring can be heard from afar.

People who haven't slept, some are talking while eating melon seeds or snacks, and some are playing poker and having fun.

The whole carriage was noisy and chaotic, and there was a bad smell.

It's still winter, and the smell of sweat isn't so obvious. In the summer, the taste is only worse.

Rao is like this, Jiang Xiaobai also felt uncomfortable, and pulled Jiang Shan to speed up.

After entering the dining car, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In the 80s, the train restaurant was not much different from the later generations, except for the operation room, there were 6 square tables on each side of the carriage aisle, covered with white dinner cloths, and the chairs were also white, and the curtains were two layers, one was black cloth and the other was white gauze curtains, and the whole carriage looked clean and hygienic.

At this time, in the restaurant, in addition to the chef and waiter in white coats and chef's hats, there are two people in railway police uniforms sitting at a table.

"Comrade, what are you eating?"

After Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Shan sat down, the waiter asked enthusiastically.

Eating in the dining car is not the kind of fast food that is made in advance, but freshly fried.

Jiang Xiaobai asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The waiter said: "We have Tianjing roast duck, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried meat, stir-fried celery, stir-fried cabbage, fried shredded potatoes, and seaweed soup." ”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded, it was worthy of the train from Tianjing to Jiangcheng, and there was even Tianjing roast duck.

Although I don't know if it's authentic, I thought that I didn't take my daughter to eat roast duck outside this time in Tianjing, so I ordered one, and ordered a small fried meat and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

After the waiter wrote it down, he received 16 yuan from Jiang Xiaobai.

The price is a bit pricey.

However, Jiang Xiaobai didn't care, and Jiang Shan didn't have a concept, just looked at the curiosity in the dining car, and the excitement was self-evident.

Not long after, the food was steaming hot in the fragrance, and the waiter served the dishes ordered by Jiang Xiaobai.

"Baba, eating in the dining car of the train is similar to going to the restaurant, these dishes look pretty good!"

The little guy stared at the roast duck and the small fried meat, and his saliva was about to flow out.

When the waiter brought the rice, she couldn't wait to eat it.

Jiang Xiaobai was also a little hungry and followed.

Tasting a bite of fried meat, his eyes lit up, and the fried meat in the dining car was quite standard, not as unpalatable as everyone in later generations scoffed at train catering.

Of course, it could also be because of hunger.

Normally, at this point, they are ready to eat lunch, but today they didn't even eat breakfast.

After eating a few bites of rice, Jiang Xiaobai taught his daughter to eat roast duck, and after the little guy took a bite, he said: "Baba, this is Tianjing roast duck, it tastes good." ”

Jiang Xiaobai also rolled one, and in general the taste was okay, although it was not as good as the last time I ate it in Minfu Roast Duck Restaurant, but it was much better than what many roast duck restaurants made in later generations.

Next, the father and daughter ate while looking at the scenery outside the window, feeling comfortable.

The little guy was probably a little hungry, so he ate three bowls of rice, and the dishes on the table were swept away.

He wiped his mouth with a napkin and burped: "Poop, the food on the train is really delicious, much better than on the plane." ”

Jiang Xiaobai felt the same way, and said with a smile: "Then do you like to take a train or a plane." ”

"Airplane!"

The little guy said without hesitation.

"Why?" Jiang Xiaobai continued to ask.

The little guy said, "The plane is fast, I like the feeling of flying on my head." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile: "Shanshan, the future social development will be very fast, and people will become in a hurry and live a life of racing against time." ”

"However, life can't blindly pursue speed, many times we also need to calm down, walk calmly, and look at the scenery around us."

The little guy thought about it, shook his head, and said that he still didn't understand.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you just need to know that no matter what you do, the process is more important than the result, don't ignore the beauty around you in order to reach the destination." ”

The little guy nodded and said with a smile: "I think it's good to take the train now, there are delicious food and drinks, and you can see a lot of scenery along the way." ”

Jiang Xiaobai touched her head, got up and said, "Let's go, let's go back." ”

"Hmm!"

The little guy immediately stood up and followed Jiang Xiaobai back to the card seat in the No. 8 carriage.

As soon as they had eaten, the father and daughter sat on the bed and chatted.

It didn't take long for the station to arrive.

It is Baoding Station, which is also a big station, and it takes 15 minutes to stop.

Jiang Xiaobai took Jiang Shan out of the carriage, breathed outside, and smoked a cigarette by the way.

"Baba, it's nice to be able to get off the train and play for a while!"

Looking at the travelers who got on and off the car, the little guy was full of novelty and said with a smile.

Jiang Xiaobai told her some precautions for taking the train by the way.

Even if my daughter doesn't know how to ride the train alone now, she doesn't need this knowledge. But he still patiently explained and let her have an understanding.

Jiang Xiaobai finished smoking a cigarette, and took Jiang Shan to the car without waiting for the radio urging passengers to get on the bus.

When the two of them walked into the booth, they saw two people sitting inside, an old lady in her fifties and sixties, and a woman in her thirties.
