Zhang Hao was thoughtful, looking at him like this, Song Yuanchao smiled.

"In fact, the key depends on what you think, don't care too much about other people's feelings, it's okay to follow the steps, just don't put pressure on yourself."

"I understand Brother, I'll think about it."

"That's right!" Song Yuanchao patted him on the shoulder, Zhang Hao grinned and nodded vigorously.

The two sat in the park and chatted, Song Yuanchao told him some interesting things about college life, Zhang Hao was very interested in this, and asked a lot.

talked about Zhang Hao's studies from the university entrance examination, and then talked about his current interests and hobbies from his studies, and then talked about some ordinary little things.

Chatting with young people, although young people always ask some questions that surprise adults, Song Yuanchao is not bored at all, but is very interested in such chats.

Chatted for more than an hour, seeing that the sun was about to set, look at the time Song Yuanchao was ready to go home, Zhang Hao was also going back, they did not go together, Song Yuanchao asked Zhang Hao to go home and his parents and grandmother said don't forget to come over for dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Hao agreed to smile and walked away with his bag on his back.

After Zhang Hao left, Song Yuanchao took the soda bottle to the commissary and retreated, the returned steel hammer was put into his pocket, and after leaving the park, Song Yuanchao crossed the street but did not go to the right, he went to the left, and temporarily planned to go to the second food store not far in front to buy something.

It's almost the New Year, and the New Year's goods at home have already been prepared, but Song Yuanchao suddenly remembered Lin Yan's favorite sugar-fried chestnuts, and now Lin Yan has a child again, pregnant women are always like this, they want to eat this today, and they want to eat that tomorrow.

Huhai's sugar-fried chestnuts are very famous, especially the best in the second food store, Song Yuanchao remembered that once he took Lin Yan to buy two catties back, she ate happily, two catties of sugar-fried chestnuts Song Yuanchao didn't eat a few himself, most of them went into her stomach.

The second food store is not far from Xiangyang Park, and it is only a few dozen meters away on foot.

The current No. 2 Food Store is still the old store, just around the corner of the street in front.

Walking over there, you can see many people queuing up to buy some New Year's goods or something, and the salespeople and customers are sweating profusely in the winter, especially the former is very busy.

Following the smell of burnt food wafting in the air, Song Yuanchao quickly found a place to sell fried chestnuts with sugar.

A man in his forties was wearing white overalls, a white hat, and a sawed shovel in his hand was stir-frying in the steaming pot.

There were a lot of people in line, Song Yuanchao walked to the back of the line and lined up, and soon after he stood still, another person came.

It takes some time to fry chestnuts in a pot of sugar, and it takes a long time to buy them because of the large number of people.

After waiting for a while, the first pot in front was sold out, Song Yuanchao looked at the number of people in front of him and estimated in his heart, I am afraid that he will have to wait for two more pots before it is his turn. Raising his hand and wrist to look at the time, Song Yuanchao continued to wait patiently in line, while listening to the chat of several people in front of him with great interest.

They were talking about the Great Wall Station in Antarctica.

People in this era are very concerned about international and domestic affairs, and everyone is not only interested in these things, but also keen to discuss them with each other.

Where is it like after the 21st century, with the advent of smart phones, everyone has a mobile phone, all of them should bow their heads, even if they are face-to-face, they have nothing to say, and even chat directly with their mobile phones.

Nowadays, people are very close to each other, and when they talk about topics of interest, even if the other party is a stranger, they will communicate with great interest, each expounding their own views and opinions, and sometimes arguing in public because of different views.

Even if the face is red and the ears are red, it does not hurt the peace.

Many times you can see two people arguing about a different point of view and quarreling, but in a blink of an eye, they talked about the same point of view again, and the two people who were arguing just now suddenly looked like old friends again.

Now the topic of conversation is about China's construction of the Great Wall Station in Antarctica, which is a major event, a major event that makes the people proud and proud.

On December 26 last year, the Chinese scientific expedition team arrived in Antarctica, and on December 31, the Chinese scientific expedition team set up the Great Wall Station in Antarctica, and the Great Wall Station was officially laid.

On February 15, a few days ago, China announced the completion of the Great Wall Station, representing the establishment of a permanent scientific research site in Antarctica by the Chinese, thus marking China as one of the only countries in the world to establish its own independent station in Antarctica.

When the news came out in the newspapers, the whole country was boiling, and everyone was proud and proud.

Now they are discussing the matter of the Great Wall Station in Antarctica, and one by one they are talking about the flying eyebrows, some of the content is from newspapers and television, and there are also many "gossip" that they don't know where they got it, and even some personal imagination.

Not only the people who said it, but also the people who listened to it with relish, and from time to time they interjected a few words to express their own opinions and comments.

was chatting lively, and suddenly someone in front of me shouted out of the pot!

The heated discussion came to an abrupt end, where is it important to buy fried chestnuts with sugar at the Great Wall Station? Everyone stretched their necks and looked at the fragrant sugar-fried chestnuts that had just come out of the pot in front of them, calculating whether this pot could be their turn.

In less than ten minutes, the pot was sold out, and the people who bought it left with a smile holding the hot paper bag, and those who didn't buy it could only continue to wait patiently.

Song Yuanchao's estimate was good, he didn't have a wheel on this pot, and it was sold out when the third person in front of him was sold out, so Song Yuanchao could only wait patiently for the next pot to come out.

Wait patiently, Song Yuanchao has nothing to do, anyway, it will be his turn later.

After another ten or so minutes, a new pot came out, and as the front began to sell, Song Yuanchao followed the person in front of him and walked forward, and after a while, he arrived at himself.

"I want three pounds!" Short and straightforward.

The salesman answered and quoted the amount.

Song Yuanchao handed over the money that had been prepared a long time ago, and the other party took the money box that he counted and put on the side, and then helped Song Yuanchao weigh the sugar-fried chestnuts neatly.

After weighing it a few times, he folded the paper bag, and the salesman handed it to Song Yuanchao, and then raised his head and shouted to the back: "Next!" ”

At this time, Song Yuanchao happened to take the paper bag, and looked at the salesman who had just raised his head to greet him, and saw the other party's face clearly.

"Du Wenting?"

blurted out a name, the saleswoman was stunned, subconsciously looked at Song Yuanchao, looked at Song Yuanchao, and then said in surprise: "You...... Are you Song Yuanchao? ”

"Hehe, who else could it be if it wasn't me? Du Wenting, I didn't expect to meet you here. ”

"yes, I haven't seen you for years, why is it so coincidental today?"

Du Wenting is very happy, she and Song Yuanchao are classmates, not only in the same class, but also at the same table.

However, most of their generation later went to the mountains and countryside to become educated youths, and not many stayed in the city.

"I said comrade, don't just chat, don't work and play at work? We've got to buy something. ”

Song Yuanchao and Du Wenting just chatted a few words, and the people in line behind them were suddenly unhappy, so they couldn't help urging.

"Didn't you see me talking to someone? The stuff is here, what's the hurry? If it's your turn, you'll definitely be able to get your turn, and if it's not your turn, it's useless to be in a hurry! Such a big person doesn't understand the reason at all? Those who don't know think they are going to be reincarnated in a hurry. Du Wenting scolded back unceremoniously with both eyes, and the person who urged him immediately turned red with anger, and pointed at Du Wenting and scolded back: "How did you talk?" You...... You...... What is your attitude? ”

"What an attitude! That's how the old lady has an attitude! What's wrong? Buy if you want to buy, get out if you don't! ”

"You...... I....... "That person is wearing a pair of glasses and has a polite appearance, he looks like he is either an intellectual or a teacher, where can he compare to Du Wenting who is a salesman? After a few words, she was so angry that she couldn't catch it.

"Don't make noise, don't make noise, it's going to be the New Year soon, everyone will put out the fire." Song Yuanchao couldn't cry or laugh, the current salesman is like this, not to mention scolding customers, it is also the norm to beat customers in some places, he remembers that he heard that there is a state-run store and has set up a rule, this rule is "no beating and scolding customers for no reason".

This rule is really ridiculous, no beating and scolding customers for no reason? Then you can beat and scold for a reason?

This can be regarded as the imprint of the times, and it was not until the 80s that the situation changed a lot, and it was not until the mid-to-late 90s that the service industry was completely changed.

Under the persuasion of Song Yuanchao, Du Wenting still gave him face, turned around and began to sell sugar-fried chestnuts again.

However, when selling to the customer who had quarreled with her just now, Du Wenting deliberately filled the paper bag with some small fried chestnuts with sugar.

The other party was suddenly unhappy, and quarreled with Du Wenting again, this time Du Wenting scolded directly with her hands on her waist and covered her face, and a series of xxx scolding made the other party not even have a chance to talk back, plus there were people lining up behind, isn't it a waste of their time to toss like this? Shouting to buy it and leave, what are you arguing about.

Seeing this, the customer had no choice but to take something and bow his head out of the crowd in a huff, and when he waited outside, he couldn't help but turn around and scold, and then saw Du Wenting roll up his sleeves and look like he was going to rush out to trouble him, so he was so frightened that he quickly pulled his legs and ran away.

"What a person! I ate all the meals in the dog's belly, and I didn't understand anything at all. After the person left, Du Wenting continued to work, and couldn't help but say a few words while working.

After a while, when the work at hand was over, she was empty, turned back to greet her colleagues inside, took off her apron and walked out from behind the counter.
