Chapter 254: The Strange Woman in the Guesthouse
Except for the meat which is a bit more expensive, the vegetarian ones are still quite cheap.
At least everyone can afford it and eat well!
Making Baiji steamed buns only requires some white flour, and it doesn’t cost much.
In this era, a large sesame seed bun only costs three cents, and the flour used is as much as that of two Baiji steamed buns. Therefore, the cost of the steamed bun is less than one and a half cents. Adding an egg and some tofu skin only costs a few cents.
The price of meat is higher, and a meat bun doesn’t use much meat. If you sell it for 25 cents, you can make about 1 cent.
If we can really find someone to sell Baiji steamed buns near the train station and bus station, the passengers will also have a treat.
Zhou Tingyue, who was standing by, saw her eating bread while thinking about something.
The corners of her mouth would curl up from time to time, and you knew she must have thought of something good again.
"What's wrong?"
Only then did Song Shiwei notice that Zhou Tingyue and the children were staring at her.
He smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Nothing, I just suddenly thought that if I set up a snack stand near the train station or station, the business should be pretty good!"
Zhou Tingyue nodded after hearing this: "Indeed! Many people who take the train are hungry all day, so they want to get off the train and buy something to fill their stomachs. Even if the food in a restaurant is not very good, the business is not that bad!"
Hearing his words, Song Shiwei smiled instantly, knowing that he was probably also thinking of the small shop run by the couple.
To be honest, those dishes are really... not tasty!
Zhou Wei got excited when he heard about food. He stuffed the last piece of bread in his hand into his mouth, smiled and leaned close to Song Shiwei and said, "Mom, what delicious food are you going to sell? Is it delicious?"
As soon as he said this, several people burst into laughter.
Zhou Tingyue rubbed his head helplessly.
“You only know how to eat!”
Zhou Wei smiled and looked up: "Food is the first necessity of the people~"
Song Shiwei was so amused by him that he couldn't stop grinning.
"I'll make it for you tomorrow when we get home!"
When the little guys heard this, they were immediately happy.
"Yeah! That's great, there's something delicious again!"
However, Zhou Tingyue held her hand worriedly.
"You'd better not do it. You feel heavy now, and you might get tired again!"
Zhou Cheng felt a little embarrassed when he realized what was happening.
"Yes, Mom, why don't you stop doing it? It won't be too late to do it after your brothers and sisters are born!"
Song Shiwei smiled and shook her head: "Don't worry, Mom knows what to do! You won't be tired!"
But Zhou Tingyue thought that he should find a nanny for her as his mother had instructed, otherwise he would not be at ease when she went to the team for training.
By the time they arrived in Qing City, it was already completely dark.
After getting off the train, Zhou Tingyue looked at the street lights that had been lit up one after another on the road and felt a little worried.
"I guess the last boat at the pier has stopped operating by now. We can only find a guesthouse to stay in tonight."
Song Shiwei nodded: "Let's take the boat back tomorrow morning!"
The little ones were also hungry and sleepy. They had been sitting on the train for such a long time. Even though they were very excited at the beginning, they felt deeply tired after the excitement. Plus, it was getting late now, so no one had eaten much.
Zhou Tingyue thought for a moment and said, "How about we leave our luggage at the guesthouse and go out to find something to eat first!"
Song Shiwei also agreed. It just so happened that she also wanted to take a walk around the area and see what the quality of the restaurants near the train station was like.
There is a guesthouse not far from the station. The price is not cheap, but fortunately the environment is clean.
Of course, it can't be compared with modern hotels.
The floor is cement and the decoration is very old.
The reception desk is a small wooden table.
When they came in carrying their things, a woman was dozing off at the front desk.
When she heard the noise and looked up, her eyes were immediately attracted by Zhou Tingyue's face.
Song Shiwei felt that her eyes, which were so sleepy that she could hardly open them, suddenly brightened up.
Zhou Tingyue naturally noticed it as well, and he immediately frowned.
He said in a deep voice: "Excuse me, is there any room left?"
The woman immediately nodded happily: "Yes, yes, yes!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Song Shiwei and the children next to him and asked, "How many rooms do you want to book?"
Song Shiwei and Zhou Tingyue looked at each other.
They definitely couldn't accommodate all of them in one room, but they were also worried about letting four children share one room when they were away from home.
Although Song Shiwei really wanted to live in the same room with Zhou Tingyue, she couldn't ignore the safety of the children.
"Two standard rooms!"
She and Zhou Tingyue live with their two children.
The woman nodded: "Okay!"
In this day and age, you still need proof of identity to go out.
Zhou Tingyue directly took out his military officer certificate.
When the woman saw that he was from the garrison troops on Qilian Island, her eyes instantly brightened.
"You are a soldier?"
No wonder she has never seen this kind of temperament in other men.
Zhou Tingyue nodded and urged her to register quickly. After all, he was thinking that Song Shiwei and the children were tired, so he quickly put their luggage away and had dinner so that they could come back to rest.
Fortunately, the woman acted quickly.
After registering, he took the room key and led them inside.
These are two rooms far apart, one at the innermost and one near the stairs.
For safety reasons, Zhou Tingyue naturally let Song Shiwei, Xinxin and Zhou Wei live in the innermost room, and he, Zhou Lin and Zhou Cheng lived in the room at the stairs.
The decoration in the room was a bit shabby, but the bed sheets and quilt covers were clean and tidy.
In that era, Song Shiwei didn't have much expectations for living in a guesthouse near the train station.
Just keep it clean.
The two beds were not small. She and Xinxin slept in one bed, and Zhou Wei slept in another.
This was the first time for the two children to stay in a guest house. They were instantly very happy and jumped up and down on the bed.
"Mom, this bed is so soft!"
"Mom, it's so fun here!"
At this time, Zhou Tingyue brought Zhou Lin and Zhou Cheng to find them: "Okay, let's go eat!"
When the two little guys heard this, they quickly jumped off the bed.
After they left, the woman suddenly took the key and opened the door of Zhou Tingyue's room.
She just saw him put his military ID in this bag.
Sure enough, she found it.
She took it out and looked at it carefully. After memorizing it clearly, she put it away for him, locked the door, and went out.
It seems that it is time for her to go to the army to visit her cousin and his wife!
This time, Song Shiwei and Zhou Tingyue chose another small shop, a noodle restaurant.
Each person ordered a few bowls of noodles and started eating.
This small noodle shop is also newly opened. The taste is much better than that of the husband-and-wife shop, but it can’t be said to be particularly good. It can only be considered average and mediocre.
But even at this time, there are still a lot of customers, even a constant stream.
After all, trains run one after another, and there will always be people getting off and wanting to eat.
