Xu Zhaodi thought about it and it was true. Chen Jianguo had his own reasons for doing things and he really understood the ways of the world.
Chen Jianguo finally bought some candy, and Xu Zhaodi bought a few bottles of frostbite cream and some miscellaneous necessities. All the twenty or thirty items were gone.
She couldn't help but sigh that money is really something that you can't spend easily.
Chen Jianguo asked: "Why did you buy so much frostbite cream?"
"Didn't you see that mom and my second brother have frostbite on their hands?
Buy one bottle for your mother, one bottle for your second brother, and one bottle for my mother.
Oh, and I have to buy two bottles of eye drops for my grandma, she has severe keratitis."
When Chen Jianguo heard this, he felt guilty.
My wife is really considerate, kind, and silly, and she always thinks about others.
It is his blessing to meet such a good person.
After leaving the supply and marketing department, they bought what they needed and exchanged the national food coupons for provincial coupons.
After a walk around, it was time for lunch, so they went to the state-owned restaurant at the time agreed with Wei.
Chen Jianguo asked for a private room. He put his things in the room and said, "Wife, sit down and rest for a while. I'll wait for him at the door."
"Well."
Chen Jianguo asked Xu Zhaodi for some brown sugar water. It was really too cold outside, so they lit a stove in the restaurant and warmed it up inside.
Chen Jianguo had been standing at the door for less than three minutes when he saw Wei walking towards him with a big smile on his face.
“Squad leader…”
"I have arranged the room and am waiting for you."
"Where's my sister-in-law?"
"Where is the private room?"
The two of them came into the private room chatting and laughing. Wei said, "Sister-in-law, you order the dishes. We can order whatever you want. It's my treat."
Wei handed the menu to Xu Zhaodi, but Xu Zhaodi pushed it away.
"You should come, we can do everything."
"Sister-in-law, ladies first."
Wei was also very stubborn, and thought that these were indeed the soldiers brought out by Chen Jianguo, each one more stubborn than the other.
Chen Jianguo said: "Wife, come and have some."
Xu Zhaodi was a little confused. They seemed to have a good relationship, so the dishes they ordered today couldn’t be too bad.
She knew that the portions of dishes these days were usually quite large, so four dishes were just right for three people.
She ordered a plate of dry pot shrimp, braised spareribs, sweet and sour fish, cold bamboo shoots, and finally a sauerkraut vermicelli soup and rice.
As soon as she took the menu in her hand, she guessed that the chef was Kawabata.
Xu Zhaodi handed the small bowl in her hand to Wei Wei and said, "Can you take a look at it? Do you want any other dishes?"
As soon as Wei saw the dry-pot shrimp, he knew that Xu Zhaodi was not an ordinary person.
These days, there are not many people who know what’s good.
Wei said: "Sister-in-law, you can. The dishes in the restaurant are very generous."
Xu Zhaodi said, "Let's take these first. I'll get them some."
Xu Zhaodi took the menu and the cup out of the box, and said with a smile: "Squad leader, you are good. Your sister-in-law looks like a movie star."
“I’m lucky to have a good wife.
What about you, are you married?"
"not yet…"
The two men chatted in the room. When Xu Zhaodi took the menu to the front desk, she took out the meal ticket and asked the restaurant attendant to calculate the bill.
The accountant laughed and said, "You are an interesting little guy. You are paying the bill before you even eat."
Xu Zhaodi smiled and said, "I feel more at ease if I pay the bill first and eat later."
"You are really good at dealing with things. We have unlimited rice in our restaurant, so we won't charge you. The total is 18 yuan."
She quickly took out her money, and after paying the bill, she smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li. I'll pay separately when I get my food."
"Okay."
After Xu Zhaodi came in, she saw that Xu Wei needed more water in his cup, so she filled the cups of Xu Wei and Chen Jianguo with water.
Chen Jianguo looked at Xu Zhaodi with a smile, thinking that his wife was giving him face.
Wei said: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
"You're welcome."
After Xu Zhaodi sat down, she slowly drank the brown sugar water.
The two of them were talking about some interesting things that happened in the team in the past. Xu Zhaodi was just an attentive listener and didn't say anything.
Soon, the waiter brought the food.
It would be more accurate to say that they are four pots of food rather than four plates of dishes.
The most expensive thing here is this pot of dry pot shrimp.
Chen Jianguo asked: "Would you like to drink some wine?"
Wei said: "No, squad leader, I have to go to work in the afternoon, and it's not good to go to work when I smell of alcohol.
I have arranged for you and your sister-in-law to stay at the county guesthouse. You can stay there tonight. When we have dinner together after work in the afternoon, we can have a few drinks. "
When Chen Jianguo heard this, he said, "No, your sister-in-law and I will take the bus after dinner.
We have some things to deal with in town this afternoon. When I return to the team later, I will come to see you in the city.
We'll take some time to have a drink then."
Wei knew Chen Jianguo's character and knew that if he said there was something wrong, there must be something wrong.
"What's the matter? Can I help you?"
"No need for help, just take care of some personal matters."
Hearing that it was a private matter, Wei did not ask any more questions and used the serving chopsticks to put food into the bowls of Chen Jianguo and Xu Zhaodi.
Chen Jianguo said: "Come by yourself, don't be busy taking care of us."
Chen Jianguo said this, but he peeled several shrimps and put them in Xu Zhaodi's bowl.
Wei was really jealous and he also wanted to get married.
But where is his beloved girl now?
When can I share the joys and sorrows with myself?
At the end of the meal, there was still a lot of food left on the plate.
However, half of the shrimps in the pot went into Xu Zhaodi's stomach.
Chen Jianguo put a lot of ribs in Wei's bowl and said, "Eat less rice and eat all the meat and vegetables. Your appetite is really impressive."
Wei smiled and said, "We can eat it."
After the meal, Wei said he wanted to go to the toilet, and Xu Zhaodi knew he had paid.
As soon as the man came out, Chen Jianguo whispered, "Wife, have you paid the bill?"
Xu Zhaodi smiled complacently, and her eyes seemed to be seeking credit.
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "My wife is really smart. She naively gave me face. I will wash your feet tonight."
He leaned over and wanted to kiss Xu Zhaodi, but then he heard footsteps at the door.
As soon as Wei came in, he said, "Squad Leader, sister-in-law, this is too much. I agreed to treat you, why did you pay the bill?"
Chen Jianguo's eyes lit up, he looked at Xu Zhaodi and asked, "Really?"
Xu Zhaodi...
"Oh, my wife is really generous, if someone treats you to a meal, just accept it.
What? You still want to blame your sister-in-law?
If you dare to blame her, I tell you I will be angry with you."
Wei Wei realized that he was really anxious just now, his tone softened, and he sat down and complained: "I want to treat you to a meal, why is it so difficult?
You lied to me. "
Xu Wei was feeling aggrieved, but Xu Zhaodi burst out laughing and said, "Hey, I just made the marriage a success. You two are brothers and have such a good relationship. As a brother, shouldn't he treat you to a meal?"
After Xu Zhaodi said this, Wei could no longer blame her.
"Come on, come on, I'll treat you next time.
You really won't stay tonight?"
"No, I have something urgent to do."
"Okay then. I'll take you to the station."
The three of them came out of the station, and Wei took them to the bus station, which was set to leave in just over ten minutes.
