Chapter 137: Not All Your Money Is With Me (2/2)



Nowadays, state-owned restaurants still have the tradition of paying the bill before eating, so they can only cook the food after the bill is paid.

After a while, the dishes they ordered were all served: a steamed swimming crab, a small abalone with potatoes, and of course, the meat, braised spareribs in tomato sauce.

As soon as the dishes were served, a strong and overbearing aroma hit them. The white rice, paired with the fragrant meat dishes, made them salivate.

Shen Qingqing observed the guests at the tables next to her and found that everyone's favorite dishes were meat. On the contrary, they didn't buy much fish, crabs, and other foods.

But this is normal, everyone is short of oil and water, pork, mutton and other meats are the favorites of most people. As for these seafood, they have been eating them since they were young, and because they are close to the sea, these things are not expensive.

Shen Qingqing is someone who has experienced the afterlife and knows what will happen in a dozen years.

Things like abalone are being driven up in price.

When she thought about the fact that the prices of abalone and swimming crabs are now lower than pork, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhou Yuanzheng picked up a piece of meat and put it in her bowl.

"Nothing." She shook her head, but she couldn't stop the smile in her eyes.

After dinner, when Zhou Yuan was thinking about where to go, Shen Qingqing had already pulled him somewhere.

Before he could react, Shen Qingqing had already brought him to the entrance of the cinema.

"Watch a movie?" Zhou Yuanzheng asked in surprise.

"Well, let's go to the movies and then go home in the afternoon."

"What about your work? Didn't you say you're busy lately?"

Shen Qingqing patted his shoulder and said, "There is always work to do, and life is important. We two finally got out once, and we can't just go back like this."

Zhou Yuanzheng thought about it and thought that this was true. Besides, he was happy to be with his wife. So he took the money from Shen Qingqing and went to buy the ticket happily.

It was still the same familiar cinema, the same familiar people, but this time the movie was different from the last time. This time the cinema was showing a revolutionary movie.

The film had a lot of twists and turns, and because it was based on real events, the entire theater was so engrossed in the story that by the end, many people were crying for the protagonist who volunteered to do so.

Shen Qingqing was also infected by this fearless spirit, and looked at the big screen with tears in her eyes. The black and white picture could not stop their enthusiasm at all.

In the end, seeing the ending where everyone sacrificed themselves, Shen Qingqing burst into tears and couldn't stop crying.

This ending reminded her of Zhou Yuanzheng. If she had not warned Zhou Yuanzheng in advance, or if they had not made adequate preparations, would Zhou Yuanzheng and his soldiers have sacrificed themselves for the motherland and the people like the soldiers in the movie?

In the previous life, I heard that many of them could not even find their complete bodies, and many of them were blown to pieces by bombs and remained in that sea forever.

When she thought of this, Shen Qingqing felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe. They finally had the stable life they have now, but there are always some people who start wars for their own interests.

Shen Qingqing secretly vowed that she must work harder, learn more knowledge, help them, help the troops, and improve the level of science and technology. At least, she would not sacrifice herself for the backwardness of the military like before.
