Fu Hongxing and Qin Su made an appointment to meet the next afternoon.
Although he felt uneasy, Fu Hongxing went back first.
After all, even if he doesn't go back, there's nothing for him to do here.
When we got back, we saw that the monkey had bought lots of things.
He even took out a pair of watches to show Fu Hongxing, which he had managed to find from someone else with great difficulty.
He and his wife each received one; his wife found out last month that she was two months pregnant.
This delighted Old Qiu and Monkey. They thought that it would be inconvenient for their wives to go to work in the morning without a watch, so they took this opportunity to buy one for their wives.
Then you can calculate the exact time before getting up.
I also have one, so it's easier to get up early in the morning to make breakfast for my wife, and avoid making her late if I don't manage the time well.
Fu Hongxing's heart skipped a beat when he saw the watch in the monkey's hand.
Having found out where the monkey watch was bought, Fu Hongxing, who had originally returned to his accommodation, wandered out again.
When Fu Hongxing returned, it was already evening.
After putting away all the things I bought, I went out to have dinner with the monkey.
SH is much more lively than their place.
It was already dark, but there were still shops open.
However, Fu Hongxing and Monkey dared not enter any of the open shops casually. When traveling, it's always better to be careful, just in case.
As the staff at the guesthouse told me, go straight and turn at the end of the road and you'll find a state-run restaurant.
The two of them ordered ten steamed buns, two large bowls of rice, a bowl of braised pork, and a bowl of egg drop soup.
After receiving the food coupons and money, the waiter placed the order directly with the kitchen.
The two of them found a table near the service window and sat down. They looked around and found that the state-run restaurant here was not like the one in their hometown. At night, there would only be a few familiar faces there. Here, people were constantly coming and going, and the flow of people was very large.
The dishes that Fu Hongxing and his group ordered didn't take long to cook. For example, the braised pork at their state-run restaurant was usually cooked in advance in a large iron pot.
When guests arrive, simply scoop out a bowlful and reheat it.
The rice and steamed buns had been steamed long ago, but the egg drop soup was freshly made.
Egg drop soup only requires boiling water, then cracking a beaten egg into it, sprinkling on some chopped green onions and adding a couple of drops of sesame oil. So, Fu Hongxing and his companions didn't have to wait long before the waiter called them to come and get their food.
The steamed buns at this state-run restaurant are as big as two adult fists.
The bowl for serving the rice was also quite large, a very big bowl.
Generally speaking, a bowl like this would at least make a grown man half full.
Add to that the steamed buns, break them open, stuff them with braised pork, and each person can eat five of them, along with a big bowl of thick egg drop soup. You're guaranteed to eat until you're stuffed.
When the monkey saw that Fu Hongxing had finished eating rice and five steamed buns and then put down his chopsticks, he vigorously scraped the steamed bun in his hand against the bowl containing braised pork.
I scraped all the soup from the bowl onto the steamed bun, making sure the bottom of the bowl was clean, and then stuffed the bun into my mouth in one go. After doing all that, I leaned back comfortably in my chair and relaxed completely.
He chewed the steamed bun slowly, the aroma of the braised pork broth making him reluctant to swallow it immediately.
No one laughed at him when they saw him like this.
After all, that's how everyone eats meat these days.
