Chapter 38: Unreasonable
But he was still harsh in his words.
"What's so great about it? If you speculated and profiteered a few years ago, you would have been arrested."
In this era, the domestic economy is booming, and most people who go south are doing business.
She had just seen Xia Keqing's ticket, so she wanted to satisfy her craving for it.
Xia Keqing adhered to the principle of preferring to offend a gentleman rather than a villain and kept silent, but Yu Hong couldn't stand it.
She grew up in a poor family. If she hadn't been brave enough to do business, she might not have had enough food to eat.
She had always been doing business diligently and honestly, and there was nothing shameful about it. But when she heard this annoying young girl say such things, her face immediately darkened.
"How do you talk?"
"What's wrong with us doing business? The country now allows everyone to do business and get rich. If you have any objections, you can report it to the higher-ups!"
"At least every penny we earn from business is visible. What we eat and drink is earned through our own hard work. Unlike some people, who look decent but actually ask their parents for every penny they spend, why do you look down on us?"
This sentence really touched everyone's heart.
"That's right, girl. You're wrong to say that. It used to be called speculation, but now it's called business."
"We are all speculators, otherwise you can call the police to arrest us."
Yu Xue didn't expect that her few words would cause public anger.
A hint of panic flashed across her face, and she soon snorted coldly.
"Humph! I'm not wrong! You guys are a bunch of profiteers and you can do it but you don't let others say anything!"
Xia Keqing really didn't expect this. Was she unlucky?
It was my first time taking a train, and I thought I could experience the nostalgia of an old green train, but I didn’t expect to encounter such a weird thing.
It simply ruined her good mood.
She decided not to bother with such people.
Yu Hong also calmed down, "Xiao Qing, I'll go sit over there for a while. Is it okay for you to be alone?"
Xia Keqing nodded.
Yu Hong glanced at Yu Xue, snorted coldly and left.
Yu Xue turned her face away and pretended to look at the scenery outside.
In fact, I kind of regretted taking this train with Han Feng today.
Yu Xue was from the provincial capital. Both her parents were workers. As the only child, she was pretty and knew how to dress up, so she was always very favored.
As for Han Feng, he is her classmate and also her boyfriend.
But her parents don't agree with her and Han Feng.
Han Feng's hometown is in a poor rural area that no one has ever heard of.
He is the only college student in the village, a golden phoenix that has flown out of the mountains.
If I had graduated successfully from Hanfeng University, I would have been assigned a job.
Her parents wouldn't disapprove of what's going on between them.
But the problem is that Han Feng encountered some problems after graduation.
In Han Feng's own words, he was wronged.
Of course Yu Xue believes in her partner.
However, Yu Xue didn't want to marry Han Feng and live a hard life in the future. So she had already made up her mind that after she married Han Feng, she would ask her father for help to get Han Feng to the factory.
Yu Xue's father is a small leader in the factory, so it is not a problem to arrange a temporary worker for him.
However, Han Feng said that although the guaranteed job assignment was good, the domestic economy was booming now and the wind direction had changed. Even if he didn't become a worker, he would definitely be able to make a name for himself.
Yu Xue felt sweet in her heart.
Just then, Han Feng said that his parents wanted to meet their future daughter-in-law, so she got on the green train with Han Feng without telling her parents.
But who could have known that the seats they bought were not together, and that someone would take her seat.
You are clearly the one occupying the seat, but you are not allowed to say a few words?
What a stinking speculator!
Because she was angry, Yu Xue didn't bother Xia Keqing.
In fact, she kept looking out the window with an expression that said, "Don't get close to me."
Fortunately, Xia Keqing is not the original owner, otherwise I would have been angered to death by her.
She was clearly the one who was unruly and unreasonable, but how come she became the victim? It was as if she didn't want to associate with people like them.
All I can say is that there are all kinds of birds in a big forest!
Yu Xue ignored her and she ignored her too, and the two of them got along peacefully.
When it was time for lunch, Yu Hong came over and brought two lunch boxes.
There are boxed lunches for sale on the train, and you don't need food coupons, so anyone who has some money is willing to buy boxed lunches on the train.
And it is said that the taste is also very good.
Yu Hong has been doing business for many years and is willing to spend this amount of money.
What's more, Xia Keqing brought people to patronize her business, and it seemed as if she had given a lot to this girl. But in fact, when she checked the accounts at the end of the month, Yu Hong was surprised to find that her monthly turnover had almost increased several times.
This girl is her God of Wealth!
What’s in a box lunch for the God of Wealth?
If Xia Keqing has a big appetite, Yu Hong would even be willing to treat her to two boxes!
Xia Keqing didn't bother to be polite with Yu Hong and took it directly.
When you open it, you will see that it is filled with white and plump rice, topped with a red sauce, and covered with seven or eight pieces of red braised pork and golden shredded potatoes. The most important thing is those brightly colored cabbages.
The bus started at around seven in the morning and it is now half past eleven, so it has been running for more than four hours.
Xia Keqing only had a fried dough stick and a bowl of soy milk in the morning. She didn't feel hungry at first, but when she saw the lunch box, she suddenly felt hungry.
It has to be said that although materials were scarce in this era, all the things were good.
If this happened in the future, it would be a dream to expect to have such delicious food in the ordinary meal set on the train or plane.
Those are basic operations for pre-prepared dishes.
Xia Keqing was seen by Yu Xue when she was looking at the lunch box. She couldn't help but sarcastically said, "What a country bumpkin you are!"
Xia Keqing: ...
She was really fed up with this woman.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to fight back, her tall and handsome boyfriend came over with two boxes of lunch.
Yu Xue rolled her eyes, took the lunch box handed to her by her boyfriend, and glanced at Xia Keqing out of the corner of her eye. That look seemed to be saying, let me show you what it means to be worldly and what it means to be elegant!
After taking the lunch box and opening it, he immediately asked loudly, "Why is there no braised pork?"
"Didn't we agree to buy braised pork?"
Xia Keqing and Yu Hong who was standing aside looked over subconsciously.
The lunch box in Yu Xue's hand contained stir-fried beans with only a small amount of shredded pork.
There was a hint of scrutiny in Yu Hong's eyes as she looked at the young man.
The boxed lunches on the train are prepared in advance and contain a combination of meat and vegetables, and you can choose your own. It was obvious that the young man lied. It is true that the braised pork might have been sold out when he went to buy it, but there were still other big dishes such as pork with preserved vegetables and braised lion's head.
Although the boxed lunches on the train did not require food coupons and were large in quantity, there was still some food available that was half meat and half vegetarian. The only dishes available were braised shredded pork with green beans.
But because she didn't like Yu Xue, Yu Hong said nothing.
Xia Keqing didn't think much about it.
The main thing is that although she traveled through the book, she is not the original owner and is not used to many things in this era.
But that didn't stop her from frowning slightly.
The main reason was that the woman's questioning voice was too sharp. Xia Keqing was sitting next to her and her eardrums were hurt.
But Xia Keqing didn't expect that she didn't even start to argue.
Yu Xue actually turned her head to look at her, and said confidently, "Hey, I'll exchange my lunch box with yours."
