Half an hour later, the two finally came out of the department store, but both of them had nothing.

It’s not because I didn’t buy anything, but because I bought too much and it was a bit too full to carry everything. Then I thought about having to go out for dinner, so I thought about coming back in the afternoon to get more.

I can still walk around a bit more, there are still many things I haven’t seen yet. Anyway, I have time today, so I can walk around slowly.

After coming out, I walked towards the state-owned hotel.

By the time the two arrived at the door of the state-owned restaurant, there were already quite a few people inside. They didn't know what dishes were served today.

After entering and queuing, I was very happy to see that there was really braised pork on Jianshu today. It seems that it is really a signature dish, and the probability of encountering it is still quite high.

"Sister Banxia, ​​I've had the braised pork from this state-owned restaurant before, it tastes very good. How about we order some braised pork?" Jianshu tilted his head to ask Chen Banxia for advice.

Chen Banxia had also tried the braised pork here and liked it as well. "Sure, the braised pork here is really good. What else should we order?"

The two looked at the menu, discussed it together, and decided to order a braised eggplant and a three-fresh soup.

Seeing that more and more people were coming, Jian Shu was worried that there would be no place to sit later, so she asked Chen Banxia to sit first while she queued up here.

Fortunately, the queue moved quickly and it was Jianshu’s turn soon.

Zheng Hong was still sitting by the window, but unlike last time, she wasn't knitting anymore, and her face didn't look too good. She wasn't very nice to the person in front of her, but she didn't hit or scold them, just her tone was a little harsh.

When it was Jianshu's turn, she looked up and was stunned for a moment, then her expression immediately improved a lot, it seemed that she recognized him.

"Oh, it's Comrade Jianshu. It's been a while since I last saw you! What would you like to eat today?"

Jian Shu said with a smile on his face, "Sister Zheng, I came here with a friend today. I want one braised pork, one braised eggplant, one three-fresh soup, and two servings of 300g rice. Could you please calculate it for me?"

"Okay, all right. Braised pork is 80 cents, braised eggplant is 10 cents, three-fresh soup is 40 cents, and rice is 12 cents plus 6 taels of grain coupons. The total is 1.42 yuan plus 6 taels of grain coupons."

Jian Shu took out the banknotes and handed them to Zheng Hong, saying, "Sister Zheng, you're busy now, so I won't disturb you from working. I'll come and chat with you after dinner when you're free, and I'll tell you something."

The restaurant was indeed quite crowded, and Zheng Hong agreed, "Okay, come see me later."

Jianshu didn't say anything more and went to find Chen Banxia.

Seeing Jianshu coming over, Chen Banxia asked, "How much is it in total? I'll give you my share."

Jianshu didn't refuse either. They had agreed before that they would split the bill for dinner today.

"The total is 1.42 yuan plus 6 liang of food coupons. Just give me 71 cents and 3 liang of food coupons."

Chen Banxia counted the money and handed it to her. Jianshu didn't count it. After all, the Chen family was well-off, so Chen Banxia wouldn't give her too little. She put it directly in her bag after receiving it.

There were a lot of people today, so the food was served a little slower. We couldn't eat as quickly as last time. After walking around for the whole morning, we were both hungry.

The two couldn't bear the aroma of food coming from the surrounding tables. They waited and waited until it was finally their turn to get their food.

Before Jianshu could react, Chen Banxia ran over and brought all their dishes.

They were both starving, so without much chat, they started eating, slowing down after they were half full. After all, eating too fast is not good for the stomach.

"Sister Banxia, ​​let's go shopping in the department store later. It's almost time for the morning, and there are still many counters we haven't visited yet."

"Okay, I haven't shopped enough yet, and I won't be able to shop there again in the future." After all, even if there are supply and marketing cooperatives in other places, they can never compare with the department stores in Beijing.

The two reached an agreement on the afternoon's itinerary.

As the restaurant slowly thinned out, the two of them devoured all the food on the table, including the bowl of soup. No, a whole pot of soup. The amount was truly incredible.

After dinner, they both leaned back in their chairs at the same time and touched their stomachs with their hands, which was absolutely in sync.

Seeing each other's actions, the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

"Shushu, are you also full?" When Chen Banxia found that Jianshu was the same as her, she let go of the embarrassment in her heart.

In her opinion, as long as everyone eats their fill, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

"Yeah, I feel like it's in my throat, and now I feel a little uncomfortable."

"Don't eat like this anymore. We can walk around and digest our food later."

"Yeah, Sister Banxia, ​​do you want to pack a portion of braised pork to take back?" Seeing that there were not many people around, Jianshu said in a low voice.

Chen Banxia nodded, and said with some surprise, "Of course I thought about it, but the braised pork here is limited, and you can't take it away. So, do you have a solution?"

"Yes, let's wait a moment and not leave in a hurry." After saying that, he gave Chen Banxia a wink.

Chen Banxia understood immediately and said nothing more, and turned to chat about gossip with Jianshu.

It's either that some old lady in the neighborhood hates her daughter-in-law, or that some son has fallen in love with a rural girl and his family doesn't approve.

Maybe he was too bored, but Jianshu, who had read all the gossips in the entertainment industry in his previous life, was still quite interested in these things.

No wonder mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas are so popular, it seems there is a reason.

Finally, after everyone in the restaurant left, Jianshu went to the counter to find Zheng Hong.

"Sister Zheng, do you want my defective wool?" It's better to give some benefits first before making a request.

When Zheng Hong heard about wool, her eyes lit up.
