"Absolutely not, don't worry!"
If you don't like it, Fourth Brother will never force you. Last time... I was just offering you an option.
Ruyi, for a girl like you, the best way to live an easy life is to marry into a good family.
But if you don't want to, I will never force you.
As Su Tong spoke, he reached out and ruffled Su Ruyi's hair, saying, "Little girl, that's a great idea."
The two arrived at the state-run restaurant, where there happened to be one empty seat.
Su Tong ordered braised ribbonfish and braised pork. Today they also had braised beef, which Su Tong ordered half a jin (250g).
In this day and age, when ordering food, people mostly prefer meat dishes.
Su Ruyi stopped him: "Fourth Brother, order a vegetarian dish, the vegetarian the better."
In the last few years of her previous life, she ate very light and nutritious meals, which were prepared by a professional nutritionist.
After a few meals of this rich, meaty food, she found herself unable to enjoy it anymore.
Whether it was due to the effects of the marrow-cleansing soup or not, she found that although she was thin, she didn't crave oily foods as much.
Su Tong smiled and ordered a stir-fried vegetable dish.
The invoice clerk's eyes widened in disbelief.
Although stir-fried vegetables have always been on the menu, this is the first time she has ever seen a fool willing to spend a dollar to eat a large bunch of vegetables for a penny.
The head chef even came out to see them and said that the stir-fried vegetables might not be fresh enough, suggesting they change the dish.
Su Ruyi resolutely refused to change it; she desperately wanted to eat crisp, tender vegetables—the only green vegetable in the treasure food box—reed sprouts, which were bitter and she didn't like them.
A saying became popular in later generations: "A wild boar cannot eat fine chaff." Su Ruyi felt that she was just a rustic wild boar.
Just as I was making fun of myself, the food arrived, brought over by the waiter himself: "No refunds or exchanges!"
Su Tong and Su Ruyi were dumbfounded when they saw the plate that had been slammed onto the table with a thud—most of the stir-fried greens were yellow, and they had no idea how long they had been sitting there.
However, the two still devoured the food as usual, not even sparing the yellowed green vegetables.
On their way back from the state-run restaurant, Su Ruyi and Su Tong chatted side by side, walking very slowly.
Out of the corner of her eye, Su Ruyi suddenly noticed a passerby walking in front of her who looked very familiar.
After looking at it for a long time, it looks just like... Su Yin.
Whether it's the way he walks that makes him look so smug, or the clothes he wears—after all, Su Yin's clothes were all washed by Su Ruyi.
She nudged Su Tong and whispered, "Fourth Brother, why do I feel like that person in front looks like Third Brother?"
