Aunt Ma was afraid of being taken advantage of, so as soon as she entered the restaurant, she said, "Let's eat steamed buns. They're big, filling, and made of white flour. We can't even eat this at home."
Fan Zhongming's face turned green again. "Mom, could you please stop talking?"
"What's wrong with me talking? I'm not asking you to treat me to a meal. White flour buns are so nice.
They accompanied me to the police station and ate a white flour bun, which was enough, but it was worth a lot of money."
The main reason was that she felt that it was not worth treating someone to a meal because of such a small matter.
They were of no help at all.
Shen Anyian really couldn't help it.
She was so hungry that she didn't have the energy to discuss with them what to eat.
She took out the money and ticket and put them on the counter.
Because we went a little late, the meat dishes were all gone.
She saw the words "Saucy Meat Noodles" written on the blackboard, so she ordered a bowl of it and asked Shen Ansui, "Sui Sui, what do you want to eat?"
"I want a mince pie."
"Another mince pie."
The waiter took her ticket and money and said to the chef inside, "I want one serving of noodles with braised pork and one serving of meat pie."
Fan Zhongming felt that her attitude was a slap in his face, and his face immediately looked a little unhappy.
"Technician, what do you mean?"
"Captain Fan, it's not that I don't want you to treat me, but I'm pregnant, so please understand.
It's already past two in the afternoon. I'm so hungry that I don't have time to wait for you to discuss what to eat.
Of course, I have received your kindness.”
Aunt Ma was overjoyed. How could she not be happy to pay less for two people's meal?
Xue Dingxiang was also extremely hungry at this moment. Besides, she was not the type to take advantage of others, so she said to Fan Zhongming, "Captain Fan, how about we have some plain noodles?"
A bowl of plain noodles costs only nine cents, so I'm not getting too much of a bargain.
It’s not that she couldn’t afford the money, but if she paid it, she would feel like she was slapping Captain Fan in the face.
As soon as Shen Anyian opened her mouth to order, Fan Zhongming acted as if Shen Anyian was insulting him. She didn't want to have a grudge with Fan Zhongming because of this meal.
Fan Zhongming's expression relaxed and he ordered three bowls of plain noodles.
A few people found a table and sat down.
The meat-sausage noodles were served quickly, with the aroma of meat filling the air. It came in a large bowl, almost as big as a human head.
Shen Anyian asked the waiter for a small bowl and picked up a bowl of noodles for Shen Anyui.
Shen Annian: "I'm really hungry, so I'll eat first."
The chef does have some skills, and the meat noodles are very chewy and delicious.
Not long after, the Yangchun noodles were out of the pot.
However, compared with the meat-sausage noodles, the Yangchun noodles seem to have a bit of a watery soup.
But everyone was very hungry, so they picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
Halfway through the meal, Shen An's meat pie was ready. She ran to bring the meat pie over and gave half to Shen An.
The crust of the meat pie is baked golden brown. When you bite it, the crust is crispy and the meat filling inside is juicy and delicious.
Aunt Ma smelled the aroma of the meat, and when she saw how happily they were eating it, she swallowed hard.
"This pie is really filling and has a lot of meat in it."
Shen Annian saw her looking at him eagerly, and the words "share it with me" were almost written on her face.
She pretended not to notice and said with a smile, "That's not true. A pie costs one or two meat tickets, so there will naturally be more meat in it."
Fan Zhongming felt that it was too embarrassing for Aunt Ma to stare at something in someone's hand, so he coughed lightly.
"Mom, what are you doing in the county town this time?"
What was she doing? It was to keep an eye on his wife.
If this were to be said to others, Li Shuiqin would probably make a fuss again.
Ma Da Niang learned her lesson this time and said, "I just came to see if there are any cheap things in the city and buy some to take back."
Her eyes fell on the things Li Shuiqin bought. Next to them were two pieces of fabric in bright colors, which were obviously suitable for young girls.
She has already given birth to two children, why is she still wearing such bright clothes?
If I had known she was restless, I would have to keep a closer eye on her from now on.
The basket next to it was covered tightly, and I didn't know what was inside.
She reached out to lift the cloth to see what was inside.
Li Shuiqin was quick to slap her hand away and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I just wanted to see what you bought. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Whatever I bought, it was all with my salary, not a penny from your son. You don't have to worry about it."
Ma Da Niang got angry when she heard this, "What do you mean by your salary? If you hadn't relied on Zhong Ming to become a military wife, would you have gotten this job?
You've become so arrogant just because you have a salary, you don't know how much you weigh. You'd better remember that Zhongming is the pillar of the family. Without him, you are nothing."
Li Shuiqin's face turned red and she was angry.
She passed the exam and was accepted by the farm to get this job, and she earned the salary through hard work. How could it all be Fan Zhongming's credit?
Fan Zhongming didn't say anything, but in his heart he felt that what Aunt Ma said was right.
If she wasn't a military wife, she wouldn't be qualified to work on the farm.
But recently Li Shuiqin has become more and more out of shape and doesn't take herself seriously at all.
Someone needs to remind her so that she doesn't forget her own identity.
However, when he met Li Shuiqin's gaze, he still felt a little guilty and said to Ma Da Niang: "Mom, please say less."
