Chu Tian, ​​who had just walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative, saw someone riding a bicycle passing by him. He stopped and patted his head, wondering why he forgot to buy a bicycle.

He immediately turned around and walked inside, but after taking two steps, he stopped again. He thought that he couldn't buy it now. His family was still living in the educated youth site and lived in the same yard with a group of educated youth. If he bought a bicycle now, and they offered to lend it to him, should he lend it to them or not?

Otherwise, should I wait until the house is built before buying it? Anyway, bicycles are also sold in the supply and marketing cooperative in the regiment, so it’s the same to buy them there...

Chu Tian saw that it was getting late, it was already past twelve o'clock, and he was not very clear about the specific location of the black market in the city, so he just wandered around. When he passed by a state-owned restaurant and saw people queuing up to buy buns, he joined the queue and bought twenty buns before walking towards the train station.

"Fourth Uncle, why are you back so soon?"

Dazhu saw Chu Tian carrying something and walking towards the carriage from a distance, and hurriedly stood up, waved and shouted.

Chu Tian walked over and handed the buns in his hand to Dazhu, "Fourth Uncle is back after shopping."

"Your father hasn't come back yet?"

"My dad isn't back yet!"

Dazhu puzzledly opened the oil-paper package Chu Tian handed him. Seeing white steamed buns inside, he widened his eyes in surprise, "Fourth Uncle, these are white steamed buns?"

Chu Tian nodded, "Yes, it's white bread. I happened to pass by a state-owned restaurant and bought it when I saw it coming out of the pot."

Chu Jun frowned, "Brother, this white bread is so expensive, what are you buying it for..."

Chu Tian was impatient to listen to Chu Jun's nagging, so he took a white bun from the oil paper bag and stuffed it into Chu Jun's mouth. "Brother, try this bun! I heard it's made with mutton fat and carrots!"

As he said this, he gestured to Dazhu to take it and eat it himself, and he also took one and started to take a bite.

If it were in modern times, Chu Tian would not like to eat any buns made with oil residue, especially those made with mutton oil residue, which had a strong smell. However, people in this era were short of oil and water, so even Han people who did not like the smell of mutton would rush to buy them if they saw buns made with mutton oil residue in a state-owned restaurant.

Chu Army, "..."

"Uncle Si, this bun is delicious..."

The first time Dazhu ate mutton fat residue buns, he didn’t feel the smell was smelly, but rather delicious.

Chu Tian smiled and said, "If you like it, eat two more."

Dazhu shook his head. "No, one is enough for me. Grandma and the others must not have eaten well after sitting on the train for several days. Let's leave the remaining buns for them."

Chu Tian chuckled, "Don't worry about them having nothing to eat. I bought twenty, which is enough for them."

Chu Min came back an hour later with a bag of buns in his hands. Chu Tian burst into laughter when he saw this.

"Second brother, we really have a tacit understanding. I bought some mutton fat residue buns, and you bought some too. I bought twenty, and you bought twenty too..."

Chu Jun frowned and looked at Chu Min with dissatisfaction, "Second brother, it's okay for me to be ignorant, but why did you buy so many buns? How much did that cost? Your house isn't even built yet! Don't you know how to save money..."

Chu Jun felt sorry for the money he spent on the buns. After eating one, he was reluctant to eat a second one no matter how Chu Tian and Dazhu tried to persuade him. So when he saw Chu Min also brought back twenty buns, he felt a little dissatisfied.

Chu Min asked helplessly, "Brother, what are we working so hard for every day?"

Chu Jun answered subconsciously, "For life!"

Chu Min raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Yes, for living, but there are differences in life. Some people live just to live, while others live to live better. Although both are life, they are completely different. One is to make do, and the other is to make oneself live better within one's ability!"

"Our lives are so short, why can't we live a little better while we are able to?"

Chu Tian looked at Chu Min in shock. What he said reminded him of a sentence he heard in the 21st century. It seemed that some people live, while others just exist. Living and existing are different.

He now seriously suspected that Chu Min was also a time traveler. However, in some aspects, he didn't think so. However, in other aspects, he felt that his thoughts were very similar. Now he was very confused and dizzy...

Chu Jun was also a little confused when he heard Chu Min's words, "But, but, we all enjoyed it, what about the children?"

Chu Min laughed, "It's not like I enjoy it every time. I just happened to be in the city today and happened to see it for sale, so I bought it."

“Normally we can’t buy it even if we want to…”

Chu Jun nodded, not quite understanding, "Okay, okay..."

Chu Min smiled and shook his head, put the oil paper bag containing the buns on the carriage, and asked Chu Tian.

"Little brother, have you asked again? How long will the train take?"

Chu Tian came back from his thoughts and gave Chu Min a complicated look before answering, "I asked half an hour ago, and the staff said the train was not delayed any more, so it should arrive in half an hour."

Chu Min didn't see Chu Tian's eyes, and nodded in understanding, "Well, we'll be there soon."

On this side, Mrs. Chu on the train nervously pinched Chu Jie's sleeve, "Jie'er, tell me, tell me Xiaotian, will he, will he come to pick us up?"

Chu Jie patted Old Lady Chu's hand in a comforting gesture and soothed her, "Grandma, don't worry. As long as Xiao Shi receives the letter, he will definitely come! You love him so much, he will definitely come!"

"Yes, my dear grandson will definitely come to pick me up, for sure!"

Old Mrs. Chu looked around, watching the train slowly slow down. Looking at the scenery outside which was completely different from her hometown, she felt nervous and full of anticipation, looking forward to the arrival of her most beloved grandson.

When the train came to a complete stop, Chu Jie told Chu Lifang, "Lifang, I'll take the luggage. All you have to do is hold grandma's hand and follow me closely, okay?"

Chu Lifang nodded heavily, and nervously grasped Old Lady Chu's arm, "Brother Jie, I will take good care of grandma, and I will follow you closely!"

Chu Jie nodded, and seeing the passenger in front of him start to move forward, he picked up his luggage and gestured, "Follow me..."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chu and Chu Lifang followed closely behind Chu Jie. If they were not afraid that Chu Jie could not carry them, they would probably want to jump on Chu Jie's back and let him carry them away...

Chu Jun, who was waiting outside, was almost drowsy when he heard a horn sound. He startled and grabbed Chu Tian's arm and shouted, "Brother, brother, I think I heard a horn sound..."

Chu Tian's arm was hurt by Chu Jun's grip. He struggled out and shouted, "I heard it, I heard it. My second brother, Dazhu, and I all heard it..."

Chu Jun jumped off the carriage and looked around. "What should we do now?"
