70. She shouldn’t have expected anything from a state-owned restaurant
After waiting for another ten minutes, I heard the staff calling my number.
Gu Yan'an quickly stood up and walked to the window, and handed out a large tray from the window, on which were the dishes that Jiang Shiyue had ordered.
Gu Yan'an was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Where are the rice and bowls and chopsticks?"
The staff member explained: "If one tray doesn't fit, you may have to make another trip."
Gu Yan'an nodded to show that he understood, brought the dishes over, placed them on the table one by one, and then walked over with the tray.
He placed the tray at the window, then returned to his seat with the rice, bowl and chopsticks.
He took the bowl and filled each person's bowl with rice. "Uncle, aunt, brother, hurry up and eat."
Jiang Boyan, who has always been thrifty, looked at the table full of dishes and shook his head helplessly, "You are so wasteful, there are only five of us, how can we finish all these dishes?"
Jiang Shiyue waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, if you can't finish it, you can pack it up later."
It’s just a matter of buying a lunch box.
Jiang Sheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Oh, it's rare that you also want to pack up."
Jiang Shiyue snorted twice, "Hurry up and eat!"
As he spoke, he helped the Jiang family pick up some food.
Gu Yan'an was not idle either. When Jiang Shiyue was picking up food for the Jiang family, Gu Yan'an was picking up food for Jiang Shiyue, as if he was afraid that she would not be full.
Jiang Boyan and his companions were already accustomed to not talking while eating or sleeping. Besides, they were really hungry, so they all buried their heads in eating.
It was Jiang Shiyue who almost vomited after taking the first bite.
It's a state-owned restaurant. If this kind of cooking skills were used in modern times, I guess no one would eat it even if you gave it to others.
It's so unpalatable that it makes me question my life.
The braised lion head was not only mushy but also a bit hard, and the key point was that there were only four of them in a plate.
The pork belly stewed with vermicelli was not mushy, but it was very sweet because of the sugar added in it, just like drinking sugar water.
The twice-cooked pork is so salty, as if salt is free.
There were only a few slices of meat in the boiled pork slices, and they were so tough that I couldn't chew them. Besides the meat slices, there were only some bean sprouts. The key is that the taste is still very light, it is truly boiled.
The taste of the three fresh vegetables was slightly more normal, neither salty nor bland, but the eggplant and potato seemed undercooked.
Not to mention the tomato and egg soup, it's just a whole tomato and the eggs are not fried, it's just egg drop soup.
If possible, Jiang Shiyue even wanted to go back more than an hour.
But the dish was ordered by her, so she had to eat it even with tears in her eyes.
In order to make her stomach less miserable, Jiang Shiyue chose to eat bean sprouts.
Although the taste is relatively light, it is still a relatively normal dish.
After finishing her meal quickly, Jiang Shiyue immediately stood up, which startled the remaining four people. All of their eyes were on Jiang Shiyue, as if they didn't know what she wanted to do.
Jiang Shiyue coughed twice and said, "I'm going to go out and buy a lunch box."
Without waiting for anyone to react, he walked outside.
After walking to the corner and making sure that there was no one around, he hurriedly bought a few strawberry cakes in the mall. After wolfing them down, he took out the unfinished Coke from his bag.
He tilted his head back, gulped down a mouthful, and burped. Only then did he feel much better in his stomach.
Indeed, she shouldn't have had any expectations for a state-owned restaurant.
Then, he bought a thermos bucket and some small cakes in the mall before going back.
At the dinner table, the four people were still concentrating on eating, but the expressions on their faces were somewhat complicated.
It seemed that what he was eating was not a meal but a torture, which made Jiang Shiyue feel a little bit sorry.
He shook his head helplessly and shook the small cake in his hand, "If you can't eat it, don't eat it. I bought you small cakes." After that, he divided the cake among several people.
Ruan Qiuhua pursed her lips and said, "Why did you buy this cake, kid? It's not like you can't eat it."
But although he said so, his hands honestly opened the package.
Jiang Shiyue was a little amused and helpless. This was what was called saying one thing but doing another.
Even though you say no, your body is still very honest.
After taking a bite, Ruan Qiuhua's eyes lit up, "Where did you buy this cake?"
Jiang Shiyue pointed and said, "It's outside. If you like it, I'll buy some more."
Anyway, I bought it in the mall and the price is cheap. Ruan Qiuhua likes it, so it doesn’t matter if I buy a little more.
Ruan Qiuhua subconsciously asked, "Is it expensive?"
After all, it is near the train station, so prices are generally expensive, let alone things like cakes.
Jiang Shiyue replied: "It's okay, it's not expensive."
After saying that, he left a sentence, "Then you guys eat first, I'll go buy some more."
Because the shelf life of the cake is only two or three days, Jiang Shiyue didn't buy many, just about ten.
Anyway, each cake is very small, so one person can still show off several without worrying about waste.
When they went back again, they had finished eating, and even the plates on the table were empty, which surprised Jiang Shiyue.
They were able to finish such a disgusting meal. It was obvious that they were really hungry.
"Now that we're done eating, let's go."
As soon as Jiang Shiyue finished speaking, Gu Yan'an stood up and said, "It's a good opportunity for us to leave for the bus station now. The time should be about the same."
When he heard that the time was almost up, Ruan Qiuhua immediately said, "What are you waiting for? Let's go!"
Thinking that the train station was still some distance away from the bus station, in order to save time, he suggested: "Then you wait here for a while, I'll go call a taxi."
Jiang Boyan frowned when he heard this, "Actually, if it's not far, we can walk there."
Gu Yan'an gave a specific time, "It will take about 20 minutes to walk."
Jiang Shiyue spoke up at the right time, "In order to save time, let's call a car, otherwise what if we can't catch the bus later?"
Ruan Qiuhua and Jiang Boyan thought about it and felt that this was indeed the case. They said to Gu Yan'an, "Then, little Gu, I'll trouble you."
Gu Yan'an nodded, "Uncle, aunt, brother, please wait for me for a while, I'll be back soon."
If you are somewhere else, it may be difficult to call a taxi.
But this is near the train station, so it is still easy to get a taxi.
So Gu Yan'an came back less than a minute after he left.
Gu Yan'an directly called two cars. When he came back, he picked up the luggage in his hands and walked out with it on his shoulder.
Jiang Shiyue was carrying the cake and the thermos on the table, but after picking it up, she was surprised to find that the thermos was quite heavy.
So that means they didn't finish their meal, they just packed up the leftovers.
She said that no matter how hungry she was, she wouldn’t finish all the unpalatable food in one go.
