Gu Wanwan lowered her head and glanced at the sack of lunch boxes at her feet, which she had just brought out from the space.
I'm afraid this idiot has some misunderstanding about "poverty"!
The educated youth were preparing to have lunch. Most of them brought their own food, while those who did not brought any went to the restaurant to eat.
There is no special place to heat up food on the train. You can either use hot water, but the supply of hot water is limited, or go to the train restaurant and pay someone to help heat up the food for you.
Liang Xin opened her lunch box to show off. One box was full of braised pork, and the other was white rice, topped with eggs and vegetables. It was a very sumptuous meal.
Anyone who sees it will be envious.
Food is precious these days, and many people cannot eat meat all year round. She can almost imagine how envious, jealous and resentful Gu Wanwan is!
No matter how well Gu Wanwan dresses, it cannot hide her inherent poverty.
Unlike her, her family takes care of her food and clothing, and she only has meat every two or three days.
Gan Qi brought a box of dumplings and some sesame cakes.
The other educated youth took out their meals, most of them had a meat dish, and even Hu Pandi took out two sorghum dumplings.
Zeng Jiliang didn't bring any food with him because he firmly believed that Zheng Shican would prepare it for him. It had always been the case, and he took it for granted that he enjoyed all of Zheng Shican's efforts. Zheng Shican was afraid that he would starve, so he would rather not eat himself than give him the food. He probably wouldn't even say a word even if he was sold out by him.
Gu Wanwan was thinking about which one to eat first, but she saw Liang Xin showing off her wealth intentionally or unintentionally.
Zeng Jiliang always looked down on others. If Gan Qi didn't like someone, no matter how beautiful she was, he would not show any mercy to her. "Poor people probably have never been to a state-owned restaurant."
Zeng Jiliang's friends He Yuanwei and Chen Jiali couldn't help but tease her, "She just extorted a hundred yuan from Liang Xin, how could she not have money to eat in a restaurant?"
"Haha, you overestimate the poor. Even if they have money, they are reluctant to spend a penny."
The look Hu Zhiming cast at him was like the look of an idiot, "The poorer you are, the more glorious you are. Being high-profile will bring disaster."
Didn't you see the sack of lunch boxes under Gu Zhiqing's feet, or the Rolex watch on his wrist? But did he show off in the slightest?
Is that the standard for poor people?
A bunch of ignorant idiots.
Zheng Shican was speechless. Even though her father was the director of the Dove Tail Club, she didn't dare to be so high-profile.
He quietly took back the lunch box that he had originally intended to hand to Zeng Jiliang.
Gu Wanwan just commented in two words: idiot!
Money is just a number to her.
Show off your wealth in front of her? Is she proud of carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars with her?
Liang Xin took a sharp look at the sack at Gu Wanwan's feet and deliberately embarrassed her, "Gu Zhiqing, why aren't you eating? Are you feeling inferior because you saw me eating braised pork? Your sack is quite full, take it out and show it to everyone."
"Liang Xin, we have to be considerate of Gu Zhiqing. Her life is not easy." Gan Qi deliberately handed a sesame seed cake to Gu Wanwan, and her words were full of superiority. "Gu Zhiqing has never eaten sesame seed cakes, do you want to try mine? I'll give you some."
Liang Xin said in a haughty manner, "If you give up your seat, I can consider giving you some meat. It's up to you whether you want to eat meat or not."
Gu Wanwan didn't react at all, but Hu Pandhi was drooling as she stared at the other person's braised pork.
"It's just braised pork, Wanwan doesn't care." Zheng Shican took out three lunch boxes and placed them between her and Gu Wanwan. "Wanwan, let's eat together. Don't be polite with me. We are good friends."
Gu Wanwan patted her shoulder, picked up the sack and left her seat, pretending to heat up the lunch box.
Ten minutes later, Liang Xin saw Gu Wanwan coming back with the sack, and couldn't help but say, "Gu Zhiqing, are you trying to show off?"
Gan Qi and others showed expressions of enjoying the show.
Gu Wanwan took out six lunch boxes, four of which contained meat dishes, including braised pork, sweet and sour spareribs, shredded pork with fish flavor and pickled duck, and two boxes of white rice, all of which were hard dishes.
The fragrance filled the air for a moment.
Zheng Shican looked at her dishes, and compared them with his own spicy and sour potato shreds, leek scrambled eggs, and braised spareribs. He couldn't help but praise her, "Wow, your family is so nice to you, preparing so many delicious dishes for you."
Gu Wanwan shook her head and laughed, "They were not relatives, but friends who prepared them. These two were given to me by the director of the Youth League Office, and the other two were made by Director Ye's wife. I have a big appetite, and they were afraid that I would be hungry, so they prepared some extra."
Liang Xin looked embarrassed, with a hint of anger and disbelief.
Why is this so?
Without comparison and harm, everything she just did would become a joke.
This series of actions silenced the mocking educated youth. Gu Wanwan might have kept silent, but when she did, she made a stunning debut.
Gan Qi felt her face burning. She pretended to be generous and treated Gu Wanwan to some pancakes, openly and secretly belittling her. It was no wonder that she looked down on the braised pork and pancakes, because Gu Wanwan's meals were much richer than Liang Xin's.
Even capitalists don’t dare to be so extravagant!
"Shican, let's eat together. It would be a shame if so much food is left out for too long and it would go bad." Gu Wanwan reciprocated the courtesy and let go of the others.
Zheng Shican was extremely surprised, but then became reserved, "Your friend prepared this especially for you, I'm so embarrassed."
Hu Pandi, who was sitting opposite her, was so hungry. There were four full boxes of meat. How much meat was that? Even though she only ate a piece of meat during festivals, she still ate it secretly from her family. "Sister Wanwan, your elders and friends are so nice to you. Unlike me, I haven't eaten meat for half a year and I almost forgot what meat tastes like. Can you finish all this meat? It would be a pity to waste it..."
What she meant was that if there was leftover rice and meat, she could help finish them.
The other educated youth stared at Gu Wanwan's meal and felt even hungrier.
