After staying in the county town for one night, Shen Yao rode her bicycle to Jiang City.
Although she was dressed warmly, the frosty wind still felt uncomfortable on her face. So she didn't dare to ride too fast. It was already 10:30 in the morning when she arrived in Jiang City.
Shen Yao walked on the streets of Jiang City. The road was wide and clean. The pedestrians passing by were dressed better than those in the county. Although they were still very thin, their spirits were much better.
Compared with An County, Jiang City is indeed many times more prosperous.
Shen Yao saw a state-owned hotel and thought that she had been here for four days and had never tried the food of this era. She decided to go in and fill her stomach first, otherwise she would not have the energy to go shopping.
Maybe it was because it was still early, there were only seven or eight people eating in the store. She saw a fat waiter knitting a sweater at the counter, so she walked towards the counter.
Shen Yao looked at the counter attendant and asked politely, "Comrade, do you have anything to eat now?"
The fat waiter looked up at Shen Yao and saw that she was skinny and pale, and looked like a poor country bumpkin, so he lowered his head and knitted her sweater again.
“Uh…” Shen Yao had a confused look on her face. Although she had read many novels of that period before and found that waiters at that time were very arrogant, this was the first time she actually experienced it. She just pretended to be pretty, but how could she be disliked by others?
So she held back her temper and asked again, "Comrade, would you like some braised pork and rice?"
The waiter was interrupted by Shen Yao again. He raised his head and rolled his eyes at Shen Yao, then started to babble, "You country bumpkin, do you have money and tickets? You still want to eat braised pork, can you afford it? You country bumpkin, go back to where you came from, is this a place for a poor guy like you to come?"
The fat waiter was not satisfied after saying this and rolled his eyes at Shen Yao a few more times. His look of disdain was too obvious.
Shen Yao looked at the waiter opposite her who was picking at things non-stop, spitting out saliva, and the fat on his body swaying up and down as he spoke. This guy was not a waiter at all, he was simply God.
She saw several people eating in the restaurant with expressions that looked as if they were used to it, so she knew that this person usually looked down on others, otherwise why would he be so arrogant.
It's a pity that this waiter met Shen Yao today and was destined to hit a wall...
Haha - she was happy in her heart. She didn't expect that she would meet a fool again just a few days after traveling through time, and he came to her to be tortured.
Shen Yao didn't want to waste time talking to her, so she took out ten big black tens and a stack of tickets and threw them on the counter.
"Fatty, open your dog eyes and see clearly what this is."
The waiter didn't expect this country bumpkin to be so rich. His face flushed with anger and he said angrily, "You country bumpkin, who are you scolding, fat ass? If you have money, why don't you take it out earlier?"
No one who was eating in the restaurant had expected that someone would dare to anger the waiter of a state-owned hotel and watch a play while eating.
"Apart from you who is fatter than a pig, who else could be here? You have a pair of dog eyes on the back of your head, and a pair of nostrils on your forehead, so you look at people with your nostrils all day long."
If she doesn't scold this fat pig to death today, she wouldn't be Ba Wang Yao.
The waiter was so angry that he couldn't say anything. "You-you..."
"What do you mean by 'I'? I'm not like that pig who's arrogant and domineering all the time. As a hotel waiter, I'm not only picky about the dishes, but I'm also looking down on others. I don't believe that your ancestors didn't come from the countryside for generations.
Since you look down on country folks, why do you still eat the food and vegetables grown by country folks? If you are so capable, you should just starve to death rather than eat the food grown by country folks."
She would never be polite to such a person who looked down on others and kept calling them country bumpkins. What's wrong with country people? They didn't eat a grain of other people's rice. If it weren't for the hard-working people in the countryside, she didn't believe that the people in the city could survive without food.
"I, I didn't..." The waitress was about to cry. She didn't expect someone would dare to scold her. She usually had this attitude, but why didn't it work today?
Shen Yao would not let her go. She was a dog who looked down on others. She really thought she was a dish even if she didn't scold her: "What do you mean by 'you'? Look at your uglier appearance than a pig, your legs are thicker than an elephant's legs, and you can cut off hundreds of pounds of fat from your body. Could it be that all the good things in the store usually went into your stomach?"
In this difficult time when everyone is not getting enough to eat, this pig is still incredibly fat. It is obvious that it has been stealing a lot of food. She doesn't believe that this fat pig's family can eat meat every day.
The hotel manager who heard the news rushed over and glared at the waiter before saying to Shen Yao, "Comrade, I'm really sorry. It's my fault for not supervising my employees. You can order whatever you want and I'll pay for it."
Compared to the waiter, Shen Yao liked the hotel leader much more.
"I still have money for meals, but, leader, I think your employees really need to relearn. Now it's a new society, and the leaders have said that everyone is equal. But the hotel waiters are more arrogant than the customers." Shen Yao said and pointed to the five words "Serve the People" on the wall.
Old Yang also knew Li Xiaohua's usual character. She always looked down on country people. If he hadn't owed the Li family a favor, he would never have arranged a job in the hotel for the Li family's daughter.
He got angry this time and yelled at Li Xiaohua: "Li Xiaohua, why don't you apologize to this comrade right now? If you don't want to do this anymore, pack up and get out."
Li Xiaohua was frightened, she didn't expect her boss to be so angry. She didn't want to leave. It was so nice to work in a hotel, she could sneak in good food from time to time. If she was fired, she would have nothing.
"I'm sorry!" In order to avoid being fired, she had to pretend to be submissive.
Shen Yao didn't fall for her tricks. She knew it was just a pretense. "Oh, forget about your apology. I don't want a fake apology. I don't know how someone as uncultured as you can become a waiter."
Although Li Xiaohua was extremely angry and cursed the country bumpkin countless times in her heart, she did not expect that he could be so vicious. She could only bow her head again and said, "I'm really sorry. I will definitely correct myself in the future."
"Hmph, can you give me a portion of braised pork and rice now?" Shen Yao was too lazy to pay attention to her. Looking at a fat pig would affect her mood. She put the money and tickets on the counter and found a seat to sit down.
After Shen Yao finished her meal, she saw that there was only two-thirds left of the large plate of braised pork. She could only take out an aluminum insulation box to pack it up and take it with her. In that era, wasting food was shameful.
