Chapter 44: Exchanged for Pork



The big issue that had been weighing on his mind was expected to be resolved. Bai Guoguo felt relieved, his appetite was whetted, and he started to eat the delicious food on the table.

At the same time, he did not forget to occasionally pick up some food for He Gang opposite him. He was wondering what was wrong with this Brother He. He didn't look like a shy person, so why didn't he pick up some food?

The last time I invited them to eat bacon rice in my dormitory, I didn’t see him so restrained!

Could it be that he was embarrassed in front of so many people? Bai Guoguo, confused, could only take better care of him and serve him more food.

In fact, she didn't know that He Gang was secretly happy at this moment.

It was a rare opportunity for him to be alone with his beloved girl, and the girl kept picking up food for him. He couldn't be more happy!

So he deliberately didn't pick up any food for himself, only ate rice and buns, and waited for the little girl to pick up more food for him.

Bai Guoguo had no idea of ​​the scheming of the sinister man in front of her, and she kept helping him pick up food until the end of the meal.

Bai Guoguo felt full halfway through the meal. A bowl of rice, some braised pork, catfish and eggplant, and sour and crispy shredded potatoes made her belly bulge.

He Gang swept away all the remaining food without wasting any of it.

After dinner, Bai Guoguo took out an aluminum lunch box from her bag and went to the window to ask Li Shufen to make her a serving of braised pork, but this time the money was given by He Gang.

He handed the money to Bai Guoguo while she was talking to Li Shufen, and Bai Guoguo had no choice but to give up.

"Girl, come to the back door and walk from the alley on the right to the back of the restaurant. I'll be waiting for you there."

Li Shufen filled a lunch box with braised pork and handed it to Bai Guoguo, while whispering some instructions.

Bai Guoguo nodded, waved to her, and left the restaurant with He Gang.

She asked He Gang to wait there while she went along the alley to the back door of the restaurant.

When she reached the back door, Li Shufen was already waiting there with a bag of fertilizer.

"Girl, the stuff is in here. According to the black market price, there are 6 kilograms of meat in total, more fat and less lean. If you are worried, you can go back and weigh it!"

This bit of meat was borrowed from the restaurant chef, who was her uncle. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to get so much meat so quickly. Li Shufen really tried her best for that silk scarf.

"Sister, look at what you said. How can I not trust you? If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't be able to get this good thing. Oh, by the way, I also have a four-piece bedding set with sheets, quilt covers, and pillowcases. It has a big red rose pattern. Do you want it?"

Bai Guoguo thought that she couldn't use up all the bedding, so she might as well exchange it for some money.

There was so much rice, flour and grains in the space that he had previously planned to prepare enough to eat for 10 years.

But now it seems that it will be of no use at all. It is better to keep some for ourselves. In a few years, the domestic food problem will be solved.

There is no need to keep all the food, but we still need to think more about how to do it.

Li Shufen was overjoyed when she heard Bai Guoguo's words. She was the only girl in her family and had two older brothers. The whole family doted on her.

This time, the man she married was a county official, whose family was also well-off, and the better her dowry was, the more face she would have.

It’s a pity that in this day and age, even if you have money, you can’t buy good things. When I was in distress, I met Bai Guoguo. It was definitely fate.

"My dear sister, you must keep it for me. I am worried about how to prepare the dowry. If you find something good, don't forget me. I will not treat you badly. We are both good people!"

Li Shufen held Bai Guoguo's hand so eagerly.

"I just reluctantly gave it up because I thought you were getting married soon. If I didn't have a relative who works at the No. 1 Textile Factory in Hangzhou and it was convenient for me to get the fabric, I wouldn't be so generous and give this good thing to you!"

Bai Guoguo pretended to feel pain and pointed out that he was from Hangzhou, the silk weaving town in the south.

Li Shufen was even more enthusiastic after hearing this: "Good sister, just consider it as doing me a favor. If you have anything else to say, just tell me. I promise not to let you suffer any loss!"

"I have some wool here. My elders prepared it for me before I went to the countryside. There are bright red, gray, and white, and it's cashmere. I also have some fabrics and lipstick. The girls in the art troupe all wear this lipstick. But I'm doing this to help you, my sister, not to profit from it. You can't tell anyone!"

Bai Guoguo counted on his fingers the things Li Shufen might need, and finally seriously emphasized that she should not tell anyone else.

Actually, you don’t need to tell anyone this. Everyone understands and will definitely tell them.

People are like this. The more you forbid her to say anything, the more she can't help it.

Li Shufen was really surprised this time. She knew this new cheap girl really well.

As expected of a city in the south called Hangzhou, it has all kinds of good stuff.

"Sister, when can you send it over? I want all the things you mentioned!"

"But I still have to go to work, sister. Look, what do you need? Write me a note and I'll send it to you when I have time!"

So the two discussed the matter. Li Shufen left a note for Bai Guoguo and gave her four meat buns wrapped in oil paper.

However, Bai Guoguo insisted on giving the money and tickets, saying that she didn't want to let her sister make a mistake.

The two of them said goodbye reluctantly.
