Chapter 458: Queuing at Midnight 4
Wang Cuilan hurriedly sent Feng Qingxue to the door of the grain store. She stood at the back of the line and said to a middle-aged woman in front of Feng Qingxue, "Xue Niang, my niece is here to buy grain for the first time. Please take care of her and make sure no one cuts in line in front of her." They have always claimed that they only recognize Feng Qingxue as their savior and do not want to reveal their relationship with the Lu family, so they do not introduce her as the niece-in-law to the outside world.
The middle-aged woman turned around and smiled, "Okay, Director Wang, don't worry!"
Her smile, even in the dim light of the flashlight, was still charming.
Feng Qingxue was shocked.
In terms of appearance, Chen Xuenniang's facial features are as beautiful as Wang Jiao's in the past. Now she is older, with fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her skin is no longer smooth, but there is a charm in her bones, a charm that makes people think she is beautiful at first glance. Even if she is dressed tightly and does not reveal the slightest curve, it cannot conceal her unparalleled beauty.
After Wang Cuilan left, Chen Xuenniang turned around and saw the surprise in Feng Qingxue's eyes. She immediately put away the smile on her face and looked wooden, as if what she saw just now was just an illusion of Feng Qingxue.
However, there was no mockery or contempt in Feng Qingxue's eyes, only admiration for beauty, and Chen Xuenniang was very happy.
Feng Qingxue doesn't know her past identity? Impossible!
At one or two o'clock in the morning, Wang Erniu sent Xiaoyan to Cheng Baoguo's house for medical treatment, yelling and screaming. After coming back, she yelled at her son to open the door. Chen Xuenniang heard it clearly in her room. With Wang Erniu's mouth, she would definitely scold herself in front of Cheng Baoguo and Wang Cuilan, and often bring up her past in front of others.
Another point is that Feng Qingxue lives in Cheng Baoguo's home, and the Cheng family will also tell her about the situation nearby.
"This is my first time buying food, so there are many things I don't understand. I'd like to trouble you to remind me later, elder sister." Feng Qingxue took the initiative to greet her. "My name is Feng Qingxue. I'm taking doctor training and I'm temporarily living in Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cuilan's house."
Chen Xuenniang smiled and said, "It's good to study medicine. Being a doctor can help people and accumulate merits. It will be your turn to buy food soon. I will not leave until I buy it for you. I will buy it for you before I leave. You don't have to worry. Buying food is very easy. Just hand over the food book, food coupons, and money. According to the amount and thickness standard on the food book, the clerk will automatically weigh the food for you."
She added, "The invoice was issued on April 1st, and the most people bought food on the second day. Basically, the whole family went out because everyone was waiting for this ration to fill their stomachs. Today is Saturday, and it is also the sixth day, and there are more than ten people in line ahead of us."
There were not many people in front of them, but as time went on, more and more people were lined up behind them and the line grew.
The grain store opened at eight o'clock, and Feng Qingxue turned around and saw a long queue.
There were crowds of people, at least a hundred or so.
At some point, a good-natured person moved the empty basket that was placed in front of the queue to the side. Now the owner of the empty basket arrived. It turned out to be Wang Erniu, who was standing with her hands on her waist and cursing, "The one who moved my basket out of the line with a thousand cuts? How could you be so mean!"
After she cursed for a while, no one paid any attention to her, so she had to wait in line at the back.
Feng Qingxue heard the people behind her whispering, "Others are queuing up, queuing up without sleep, but she put down her basket and went home to sleep. She wants to be at the front of the line, but she doesn't want to be tired. How can it be so good?"
"She's lucky. She can't do anything if someone takes her basket."
