Gu Zhinian accidentally transmigrates to the 1980s, becoming a black household without household registration or diploma. To survive, she can only go to the labor market to find a job.
Yun Mu...
Yun Muye and Gu Zhinian walked out of the department store after shopping.
"Do you have anything else to buy?"
Gu Zhinian looked up and asked him, "I want to apply for a local household registration. Do you have any solution?"
Without the household registration of this era, she is an illegal resident and it is inconvenient for her to do anything.
"Yes, I can take you to the police station to handle it. But where do you want your address to be written on your household registration?"
Gu Zhinian hesitated and couldn't make up her mind to speak. Yun Muye held the child and waited patiently for her to speak. As time passed, Yun Muye persuaded her,
"Why don't you register your household registration at my house?"
"May I?"
"Sure, no problem!"
"Okay, I'll move my household registration there once I find a place to live."
Yun Muye said nothing and took her to the police station to handle the household registration. Half an hour later, Gu Zhinian came out with the fresh household registration book and ID card.
Yun Muye followed her holding the child. He looked down at the watch on his wrist. It was already past five in the afternoon, the sun was about to set, and it would get dark early.
"Let's eat outside. There's a hot pot restaurant in front. Let's go there and have mutton hot pot."
"Okay!" Gu Zhinian curled his lips and smiled, "I'll treat you. Thank you for helping me with my household registration and giving me a job."
Yun Muye couldn't let her treat him. He also knew that if he refused her, with her stubborn temper, she would rather not eat.
"Let's go!"
Yun Muye took her to the hot pot restaurant and sat in an empty seat. Gu Zhinian spoke generously,
"Order whatever you want, it's my treat today!"
"Okay!" Yun Muye picked up the menu and looked at it. Gu Zhinian took the little Tangyuan and
"Baby, what do you want to eat?"
The little glutinous rice ball jumped excitedly in her arms.
"Eat meat, baby, eat meat."
"Okay, buy some meat for the baby." Gu Zhinian hugged him and coaxed him gently in a low voice.
Yun Muye took the menu and ordered a few dishes. While waiting for the dishes to be served, little Tangyuan turned around and called out "Dad" and "Mom" from time to time. Anyone who saw it would think they were a family.
The waiter brought the mandarin duck pot to the table. On one side was milky white soup with tomatoes, and on the other side was spicy soup. There was also a pair of mandarin ducks on the pot.
The waiter placed all the vegetables and meat on the plate. The thinly sliced lamb was tightly stacked on the plate, and the emerald green cabbage leaves were wrapped around it, arranged into the shape of a flower and placed in the bowl.
The plate was filled with fresh tripe, hand-cut beef slices, a plate of tender tofu, a plate of braised food, and two fresh eggs in the bowl.
Yun Muye picked up a small plate and walked to the table with sauces by the wall. He scooped a spoonful of sesame paste, chives, chili oil, a piece of fermented bean curd, sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, a spoonful of crushed peanuts, and poured a little rice wine. He returned to his seat with the small plate and placed it in front of Gu Zhinian.
“Eat quickly!”
Gu Zhinian was stunned when she saw the sauce in the bowl. It was full of her favorite foods. She looked up at him puzzledly. How did he know what she liked to eat? Was this a coincidence?
Yun Muye was feeding Xiao Tangyuan steamed eggs when he turned around and saw her in a daze, not moving her chopsticks.
"What are you standing there for? Eat quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."
"Oh, okay."
Gu Zhinian picked up a piece of mutton with chopsticks and put it into the pot. After a while, the soup was bubbling. She picked up a piece of mutton, put it in a small dish, dipped it in the sauce, and put it in her mouth. It was fresh and spicy, covered with full of sauce. The fresh and fragrant taste exploded in her mouth, and the greedy people wanted to bite off their tongues.
Gu Zhinian took two bites, looked up and saw Yun Muye still feeding the child. She cursed him secretly, calling him a greedy ghost, and walked over to pick up the child.
"Eat quickly, I'll feed the child."
"No, he'll be full soon. Just let him play by himself."
Yun Muye took out a toy car from his bag and put it in the hands of little Tangyuan. Little Tangyuan sat on the chair and played with the toy, mumbling in his mouth.
"Car, car, car, fly, fly..."
Putting the child down, Yun Muye picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of mutton for her, and then put the raw beef into the pot.
"Hurry up and eat. This mutton is very fresh and hand-cut. Later we will have hand-rolled noodles. They are chewy and delicious. I guarantee you will like it."
Gu Zhinian politely replied: "You eat too, don't worry about me, I can do it myself."
Yun Muye curled his lips slightly, and kept adding vegetables to the pot with his hands.
"The hot pot sauce here is very good. If you like it, come again next time."
"Thanks."
Gu Zhinian felt a little uncomfortable, always feeling that this man was too enthusiastic. It seemed like they had only known each other for a short time, or maybe this was just his personality, warm and hospitable.
