Now she had money and tickets to fill her stomach.
He swaggered into the state-owned restaurant, ordered two taels of noodles, gave his money and food coupons, and found a corner to sit down.
The noodles arrived quickly, and I listened to the 뇽 horn coming over to serve the rice.
Noodles these days are all hand-rolled. The pure flour is mixed with a faint wheat aroma. The rolled noodles are chewy and paired with the milky white bone soup, the taste is simply delicious.
After finishing all the soup and noodles, Cheng Yunan leaned back in the chair and patted her stomach.
With my eyes half closed, I was thinking about what happened today.
Today, Cheng's mother was sent to Director Ma's bed. The feud between the two families must have been resolved.
The Ma family gave a huge betrothal gift of 600 yuan to the original owner and also promised to promote Cheng 꿵 to the position of workshop director.
Now that Director Ma is disgusted by Cheng's mother, can he just quit his job graciously?
If she goes back now, Cheng Xiao will definitely let her go, and she can still go home.
The light is back, and we have to add fuel to tomorrow's good show.
As Cheng Yunan thought about it, a hint of evil coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.
After leaving the state-owned hotel, Cheng Yunan was a little confused. She could always wander around the streets when she got home.
She had a dollar in her hand... yes, she had just spent thirty cents on noodles, and had about a hundred and seventy cents left.
In this era when one has money but no tickets to eat, she had to hurry to get tickets, as the money she managed to get was only enough for her to eat for two days.
She searched through the original owner's memory. The original owner knew that there was a black market in the city, but she didn't know the location of the black market.
Besides, with her tiny arms and legs, if she went in, someone else might snatch her away.
It’s time to take an adventure!
Yes...wait a couple of days and go to the village across the street to ask.
While I was thinking about it, I was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
Cheng Yunan was so frightened that he tried to run away.
"You are such a smart girl. Look how scared I am. I saw you wandering around here and was afraid you might be in trouble, so I came to ask if I could help you. But I ended up scaring you!"
Cheng Yunan recognized her; this was the salesperson at the window of the state-owned hotel.
She was in her thirties, and perhaps because working in a state-owned hotel was a lucrative job, her figure was round, which was rare in her age.
"It's you, sister. I thought I was being targeted by a bad guy. How shameless." Cheng Yunan scratched her head with a silly smile on her face.
Not to mention, her face, with bright features, clear eyes, and a sweet smile hidden in the dimples at the corners of her mouth, makes it easy for people to get close to her.
"Hey, it's okay. You're a little girl, you should be more cautious in front of others." The eldest sister waved her hands and spoke without any concern.
"Well... I'm in some trouble. Sister, do you have any extra tickets?"
Cheng Yunan spoke without any basis.
As a waitress in a state-owned hotel, she has a stable job and can get a lot of money every month.
If there are two or three workers in the family, the tickets will be used up completely.
Seeing that the woman in front of him could eat herself so well, it showed that her family was not well off, she was short of food, and her receipts must be few.
"How much do you want?"
The woman's eyes lit up. She had asked the right question! Her parents-in-law both had jobs, her brother-in-law and her elder sister-in-law also had jobs, and with her lucrative job at the state-owned hotel, she could save a lot of money every month.
Yesterday I sorted out the bills at home. There was a batch of bills that were about to expire. There was also a lot of food piled up at home. If I used them any more, they would expire and become useless.
She was eager to take it out and exchange it for money.
"Big sister, I have money but no tickets, and there are seven or eight mouths to feed at home. If you have any extra, please give it to me! I think it's too much."
It's good to have money. She has tickets and the girl has money. They both get what they need.
"Okay, wait here, I'll go home and get it."
"Sister, is your home far from here? It's too late and it's not safe for me to go home."
The eldest sister waved her hands and said, "It's not far away. It's just on the street behind the state-owned hotel. Just turn a corner and you'll be there. I'll be right back."
The eldest sister is impatient, she left as soon as she finished speaking, and her walking speed was just right for her body.
It was a bit cold on the street, so Cheng Yunan turned to the corner to avoid the wind.
As I squatted with my arms folded, my eyes quickly caught sight of a familiar figure.
It's him!
But now she had changed her clothes, and they were strangers, so she absolutely could not show any guilty expression or timidity, otherwise she would be noticed by that person and get into trouble.
Forget about today's deal and come back next time.
Before she left, the elder sister came back and said, "Big sister, so you are here. It took me so long to find you."
"Sister, please let go first!" Cheng Yunan struggled but couldn't move.
At this time, the advantage of the tonnage was revealed. She didn't just break away, but everyone pulled her hand even harder. "Big sister, I took a leave of absence and went home to get the tickets. You don't want to act like a big sister and ask for them, right?"
Cheng Yunan said stiffly, "No, no, sister, you think too much. If someone sees you walking on the street and catches you, it won't matter to anyone."
The eldest sister thought about it and decided.
There is no problem with private transactions, but being caught is a big deal. "Okay, let's go to the back alley. If you dare to play tricks, humph! I have lived here for more than three years and I am a vegetarian!"
The rookie Cheng Yunan was grabbed by the arm and taken to the back by the elder sister.
Lu Shiye just heard a familiar voice, his eyes quickly caught that direction, only to see a figure disappearing around the corner, his brows relaxed again.
Maybe I heard it wrong!
Turn around and leave.
Cheng Yunan's transaction with Yuanrun went smoothly.
Cheng Yunan spent more than one hundred yuan in total to buy various urgently needed tickets from the other party, including grain tickets, industrial tickets, and the most difficult ones were cloth tickets.
Cloth coupons were really scarce in those days, and to be able to come up with so many at once, it was obvious that Yuanrun's family was quite well off.
"Well... big sister, I see you are straightforward, I won't cheat you, the grain coupons are about to expire, you should find a chance to cash them in and store more food at home. Anyway, in this weather, you are afraid that they will go moldy and spoil."
Cheng Yunan just discovered that half of the tickets the woman gave her were recent, and the other half had longer dates. The longer ones were national grain coupons that could be used anywhere, while the recent ones were from the city and could only be used locally, with the shortest one expiring in three days.
Cheng Yunan rolled her eyes speechlessly: "..."Sister, you are quite nice!
The woman felt that she had gotten a great deal, and took out an oil-paper bag from her pocket in a flattering manner, "Sister, these are big meat buns and crispy fire-baked dumplings made by our chef. They taste amazing. I'll give you two, try them."
Cheng Yunan's eyes lit up, knowing that the other party wanted to compensate her.
"Big sister, how can you be so kind? I was just worrying about what to eat for dinner and you brought it to me. My family hasn't eaten meat for a long time. I know how delicious it is just by smelling it. I'm so polite to you!"
Cheng Yunan's words were not false at all.
The original owner was a nobody in the Cheng family. He got up earlier than a chicken, slept later than a dog, worked harder than a donkey, and lived a miserable life than a cow.
Whenever the family ate meat and eggs, Cheng's mother would always remember that there was something undone and would order the original owner to leave the table.
When she came back, there was nothing left on the table and the plates were polished to a shine.
The original owner almost forgot what meat tasted like.
Now the aroma of meat is drilling into my nostrils, how can I resist the temptation?
In her last life, she was sick of eating meat, but in this life, she is drooling over two big meat buns, tsk tsk!
I secretly despise him in my heart, thinking he is a loser.
