Surprisingly, although Chen Xiangrong was very angry...

Gu Yunyang could even see her clenched fist.

In the end, Chen Xiangrong did nothing and simply gave up.

"I've ordered the food, let's eat."

Chen Xiangrong's voice carried a hint of grievance, conveying a feeling of tender affection.

Although the man was amazed by her beauty, he still gave Chen Xiangrong a haughty look.

Then the two of them went over there to eat.

Just then, they finished ordering their food.

There was actually no real interaction between Gu Yunyang and Chen Xiangrong, except for that one time when they borrowed money.

Although this matter is not over yet, Gu Yunyang can see that the other party is deeply mired in trouble.

I don't know what's going on.

Judging from Chen Xiangrong's background, it's clear that she also comes from a good family.

Gu Yunyang was also a little surprised, as it seemed that all the girls he had met came from good families.

Yeah, that seems to be true.

However, in his daily life, he also encounters many people from ordinary backgrounds, but they just don't have much interaction.

After serving the dishes, neither Gu Yunyang nor Yu Xiaobo intended to meddle in other people's business.

Yu Xiaobo was indeed very generous this time, ordering shredded pork with sweet bean sauce and some boiled fish, which made up two meat dishes, and the portions were quite generous.

The state-run hotels of this era certainly didn't have very good service.

But at least the taste is not bad, and the portion is generous.

It's not bad.

Gu Yunyang was also willing to eat at the state-run hotel.

Occasionally, they would order a few extra dishes and store them in the base space, just in case.

"Eat up, don't be shy," Yu Xiaobo said with a smile.

Although Gu Yunyang went to the countryside, it seemed that he had also escaped the mire, and from then on, he was free to fly in the sky and leap in the sea.

Even after Gu Yunyang went to Guangdong Province, he could still frequently send them some grain and local specialties.

This makes it very necessary to develop a deeper friendship.

Yu Xiaobo and Captain Liu were in the same situation; they didn't have enough food, but given their identities, it wasn't appropriate for them to go to the black market.

If I get caught, it will be difficult to handle.

Gu Yunyang is a great opportunity.

Even though they trade or exchange resources in this way, there is still an extra cost for postage.

But families like theirs don't actually lack that little bit of money.

If it weren't for their identities making the black market unsuitable, they wouldn't be short of food.

While ordinary people may not be able to afford expensive food, they can still manage.

It was Yu Xiaobo who later repaid the favor by mailing Gu Yunyang some cloth and other items.

Gu Yunyang then sent Yu Xiaobo more food in return.

"Hmm, it tastes really good." Gu Yunyang gave a thumbs up and exclaimed in admiration.

Yu Xiaobo laughed and said, "That's right, the chef at this state-run hotel has such excellent culinary skills."

He gave a thumbs up and said, "This chef used to be a royal chef. His culinary skills are exceptional. It's said that the district leaders all adore him. He's often invited to cook for them. We're lucky to run into him at the state-run restaurant today."

Gu Yunyang understood.

Don't assume that these artisans have a hard time in this era. As long as they have good skills, they can naturally make a good living.

Those in positions of power are also human beings, and they have their own preferences.

And food is something that no one can avoid.

As long as he's not too unruly, a chef like him can live a pretty comfortable life at this time.

As a head chef, he also had access to some tacit resources from state-run restaurants.

And the head chef can take the lion's share.

In addition, since he often goes out to cook for his superiors, wouldn't he have to take something with him when he comes back?

Most leaders are probably quite generous to head chefs.

At the very least, the chef can bring back any extra ingredients.
