"Me? I have to go for some reason," Jiang Yule said with a faint smile. She was not the original owner. Although she disliked the so-called eldest aunt's family, she did not hate them so much. So she just publicized their selfishness and evil, but did nothing else.
"Is that so? But girls like you have to be careful about your safety when you go to the countryside. My neighbor's sister came back to visit her family during the Spring Festival and said that there are old bachelors in the village who can't find a wife and use some shameful means to bully the female educated youth." Li Fengxian didn't forget to look at the people around her while speaking to Jiang Yule in a low voice.
"Indeed, I have heard these rumors a lot. It is like this everywhere. If there are good people, there must be bad people. We are all in the same production team. If you need us in the future, just let us know." Feng Yuanming listened to Li Fengxian's words and said, with a look of disdain on his face for those things that were not worthy of being mentioned in public.
Lu Zhixing lowered his head, thinking about something.
As for these two gay men... Jiang Yule was also looking at them while chatting. Feng Yuanming had a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was a very likable and upright person in this era, while Lu Zhixing... was not good enough, not because of his appearance, but because he was too thoughtful...
From the moment she appeared until now, Lu Zhixing kept looking at her. His eyes mainly lingered on her watch, necklace, handbag, and small leather shoes....
You can tell what he is thinking from the look in his eyes, so when he was talking, Jiang Yule didn't really want to pay attention to him.
The train traveled towards its destination for the whole morning. The smell of food wafted from the carriage. The summer weather was hot and stuffy, and it was a confined space. Jiang Yule was not very comfortable with the smell, so he said to Li Fengxian beside him, "Comrade Li, I'm going to the dining car to have a meal. Can you please keep an eye on my suitcase for me? I'll be back soon."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere. I'll eat slowly, no rush." Li Fengxian glanced at the suitcase above her head. The suitcase looked newly bought, and even if no one was watching, there would probably be no thieves who would steal it. After all, the target was too big.
"Thank you," Jiang Yule thanked him and followed the carriage sign to find the dining car. The dining car was much cleaner and tidier than Jiang Yule had imagined. Each table was covered with a white tablecloth, and there was even a small bunch of artificial flowers on the table as decoration. The air was filled with the aroma of food.
This clean and tidy environment made Jiang Yule feel much better.
Walking inside, Jiang Yule looked at the sign hanging in the window and raised his eyebrows. No wonder there were so few people in the dining car. He bought a lot of things in the state-owned department store yesterday, so he had some understanding of the prices in this era.
The food on this dining car was not cheap in this era of food and clothing shortage, especially for the working people who could afford a steamed bun for a meal.
But Jiang Yule was not short of money. Looking at the sign that said the lunch box cost one dollar, Jiang Yule said to the waiter at the window, "Hello, comrade. I want a lunch box for one dollar."
There were not many people in the dining car, and the waiter was drowsy. When she heard about the one-dollar lunch box, she thought that she was worried about not meeting today's target and was hallucinating. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
When she subconsciously raised her head to look at the person who was speaking, her sleepy brain became even more confused.
This must be a dream. How could such a pretty girl exist in real life? Tsk tsk, my brain is really good. I can even imagine such a perfect girl...
While the waiter was thinking about all sorts of things, Jiang Yule spoke again, and while speaking he did not forget to push the money and food coupons forward.
"Comrade, please help me get a lunch box for one dollar."
This call brought the waiter back to his trance.
"Ah, what, a real person! Then what... Comrade, give me your lunch box, I'll get it." The waiter was in a panic. The man who used to be arrogant now had red cheeks and didn't know what he was saying.
Jiang Yule half guessed and half thought from those few words, and it was not difficult to guess that she must have been distracted just now. He smiled friendly and said in a soft tone, "Excuse me, do you have disposable ones? Or a new lunch box, I want to buy one."
"You didn't bring it?" The waiter forced himself to calm down and looked at Jiang Yule's empty hands and asked
"Yes, it's my first time traveling far away, and I didn't know I had to bring my own lunch box. I'm really sorry," Jiang Yule said apologetically. Auntie An said she would bring her some food, but the weather was hot, and Jiang Yule felt that it would be stale after carrying it for a day, so she didn't let Auntie An prepare it.
As for the lunch box... Jiang Yule is used to the convenience of the later generations, she really ignores these things.
“Are you eating here?”
"Yes," Jiang Yule nodded.
"Okay, I'll get you one from the kitchen, you can use it first, and give it to me when you're done."
"Thank you, sister," Jiang Yule said sweetly.
The waitress blushed when she was called "sister". "Okay, okay, sit wherever you want. I'll bring your lunch box to you when it's ready."
"Okay, thank you sister," Jiang Yule said with a sweet smile, and under the waiter's eager gaze, he found a seat and sat down.
Not long after, the waiter came over with a tray and put it on the table. There were two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, the amount of food was impressive! She thinks three are enough for her...
"Our chef here is very good at cooking, please eat more."
"Okay, thank you," Jiang Yule said, and then he picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
"Little girl, this lunch box is for you. It's new. It's been in the kitchen and no one has used it. I guess you can't eat much, so put the rest in the lunch box. Come over in the evening and I'll heat it up for you. It's just right. I've already washed the lunch box, so you can use it without worry."
