The dishes were served quickly. Lin Ruo took a bite and her eyes lit up instantly; the taste was indeed excellent.
She immediately looked up at the busy proprietress beside her and said, "Proprietress, give me another fifty servings of each of these three dishes, to go."
The proprietress stopped calculating, slightly taken aback. "Fifty portions of each? Young lady, our portions are quite large. Are you sure you can finish them all?"
Lin Ruo paused in her eating, then her eyes lit up, and she smiled as she replied, "Our club has an activity tonight, and I found your food particularly delicious. I'll bring them some food so they can try it too. I'll recommend you to others for business later."
"Oh my, young lady, you're so good with words! Just for that, I'll give you extra food!" The proprietress said, beaming with joy, and turned to the kitchen to order more food.
Lin Ruo smiled and turned back, focusing intently on the food in her hand. The fish-fragrant pork had a hint of sweetness, the pork was smooth, the green peppers were crisp, and the mushrooms were flavorful. Each bite created a unique and delicious flavor. It was delicious!
There's also braised eggplant, fried to perfection, soaked in the broth, soft, sweet, and delicious – a perfect accompaniment to rice.
The braised pork belly is also delicious. The fatty part is tender and chewy, the lean part is fragrant and not dry, and the gravy is rich and slightly sweet. It's absolutely amazing with rice!
Lin Ruo ate until she was stuffed, carrying 150 dishes. After paying, she left the restaurant and asked the waiter to help her carry the food to her car before closing the car door.
It was getting dark, and the food street was bustling with activity. The roadside snacks were all open for business. Although Lin Ruo was full, she still believed that meeting someone was fate, so buying a little more wouldn't be too much to ask.
She ordered fifty servings of each snack she bought along the way. Although she could cook, she always felt that the food outside was different from what she made herself and tasted especially good.
Making fifty servings of snacks takes some time, so she sat in the car and waited for a while. While waiting, she opened her phone and started ordering online. There were quite a few things to buy, and in half an hour she only managed to buy a few items.
Judging that the food should be ready, she got out of the car, paid, and put the food in the car. Under the cover of the car, she put the food, along with the dishes from earlier, directly into her spatial storage. Along the way, Lin Ruo had stockpiled a lot of delicious food in her spatial storage.
With a happy mood, she drove home. When she got out of the car, she took out a few snacks from her storage space, went downstairs, and knocked on Grandma Wu's door.
Grandma Wu opened the door and saw Lin Ruo. She immediately smiled and said, "Little Ruo is back. Is there something you need from Grandma Wu?"
Lin Ruo handed over the food she was carrying, saying, "I bought some food outside and thought you might not have eaten yet, so I brought it to you."
Grandma Wu refused, repeatedly saying, "Xiao Ruo, take it home and eat it yourself. Grandma is cooking, you won't get any..."
Lin Ruo placed the bag in her hand on Grandma Wu's cabinet and said with a smile, "Then you can give it to Lulu, she loves this."
Grandma Wu didn't refuse anymore. She just patted Lin Ruo on the shoulder and earnestly told her, "Xiao Ruo, you have to be careful with your money. You have a long life ahead of you."
"I know, don't worry," Lin Ruo nodded with a smile, and then casually chatted with Grandma Wu, "I heard there will be a major rainstorm this month, and the temperature will drop significantly, possibly to below zero. Since your legs aren't very strong, you should buy more food, drinks and clothes to keep at home, so you won't have to go out later."
"Okay, okay, Grandma understands." Grandma Wu didn't suspect anything, assuming that young people were good at using the internet and were well-informed, so she quickly nodded in agreement.
"I don't know what's wrong with the weather this year. Before, there were earthquakes and floods everywhere. Now, it's the hottest time of summer, and suddenly the temperature is going to drop drastically..." As Grandma Wu muttered to herself, Lin Ruoruo thought to herself, "Perhaps the end of the world was foreshadowed. This is the Earth's punishment for humanity's lack of care for the environment."
After saying goodbye to Grandma Wu, Lin Ruo went upstairs to her own home, telling Grandma Wu to stock up on more supplies so she could prepare another batch for her when she left. She also asked Uncle Wu to come back sooner, hoping that if they could hold out until the first wave of rescue efforts from the A City base, things might be a little better for them.
She went home, took a hot shower, and collapsed onto the sofa, feeling extremely tired. This day was much more tiring than when she was on a mission. Spending money really is hard work.
However, she still has things to do. She needs to receive supplies tomorrow morning and continue buying supplies in the afternoon. Her schedule is packed all day.
She opened her online shopping app and bought some useful items: flashlights, batteries, high-calorie foods... She bought quite a lot of them, and the addresses she listed were all warehouse locations.
She finally fell asleep late at night, still holding her phone.
