Shen Zhengrong did not drive directly back to the army.
Because as soon as they met, Zhou Yubai told him to drive to the state-owned hotel first.
He himself has taken many trains and knows that the toilets on trains smell bad.
Even on the train, he would control his eating and drinking and try to go to the toilet as little as possible.
What's more, his sister is such a delicate person that she definitely can't stand the smell of the toilet.
Although they are now in the urban area of Liaobei, the streets and buildings are not much different from those in Qingyuan County.
The only difference is that although the shops here are open, they all hang thick curtains to keep warm.
The car stopped outside the state-owned hotel. Shen Zhengrong got out of the driver's seat and habitually wanted to help Shen Chuning in the back seat get out of the car.
But Zhou Yubai had already carried Shen Chuning out of the car.
The muscles at the corners of Shen Zhengrong's eyes twitched.
For a moment, he felt as if he no longer needed to eat, as he was full just from eating dog food.
What’s more, the dog food is so sour that it makes his teeth hurt.
It is even colder when the snow melts than when it snows. It is freezing outside, but as soon as you enter the state-owned hotel, a warm atmosphere hits you.
Zhou Yubai helped Shen Chuning take off her outer cotton coat, dusted it off, and held it in his hand.
Shen Chu Ning looked at the state-owned restaurant.
The state-owned restaurants here are similar to those in Qingyuan County. There are slogans written in red on the white walls: "Develop production, ensure supply."
There was a small blackboard on the wall that read "Today's Supply."
The staple foods served today include noodles, barley porridge, rice, pork and sauerkraut dumplings, and vegetarian cabbage dumplings.
The dishes include: braised pork, braised fish, braised potatoes, fried shredded potatoes, stir-fried cabbage, pork stewed with vermicelli and a big stew, etc.
Because of the shortage of vegetables in winter, the dishes here are much more monotonous than those in Qingyuan County. The raw materials for vegetarian dishes are basically cabbage and potatoes.
Shen Zhengrong said that according to the custom in Liaobei City, people eat dumplings when they get on the bus and noodles when they get off. Since they had just got off the bus, it was very suitable for them to eat some noodles.
We ordered a bowl of noodles per person as the main course, and a braised fish and a pork stewed with vermicelli and fried shredded potatoes as the side dishes.
Shen Chu Ning was originally worried that ordering three dishes for five people might not be enough.
When the dishes were served, she was stunned by the amount.
The amount of this portion is at least equivalent to two or three portions in Qingyuan County. No wonder her third brother kept stopping her and saying that it was enough when she wanted to order another dish just now.
She thought that the third brother wanted to promote a life of hardship and simplicity, but she didn't expect it was because of the huge difference in the amount of food in the north and south.
Fortunately, she listened to the advice and did not insist on ordering another dish.
The portion in the north was too large, and Shen Chu Ning only ate a small half of the noodles before she couldn't finish it anymore.
After she became pregnant, although her appetite increased greatly, her stomach was squeezed as the baby grew bigger, so she actually ate less at one time than before. She just ate small meals frequently, and the total amount of food she ate increased.
She looked at the half-eaten noodle in front of her and quietly tugged at the corner of Zhou Yubai's white shirt, "Brother Yubai, I can't eat any more."
Shen Zhengrong, who was standing next to her, reacted quickly when he heard her words, "Little sister, if you can't eat it, I can..."
But just as he stretched out his hand and hadn’t finished speaking, a big hand had already taken away the remaining bowl of noodles from Shen Chu Ning.
He stretched out his hand but found nothing.
Shen Zhengrong looked at Zhou Yubai: ...
Zhou Yubai looked extremely calm, "What my wife can't finish will naturally belong to me."
Shen Zhengrong: …
He picked up the noodles in the bowl and took a sip. "What's so great about it? I ate all the things Ningning couldn't eat when she was a child."
Shen Chuning: …
These two men... childish!
After dinner, they got back in the car and went straight to the troops.
Along the way, Zhou Yubai introduced Shen Chuning to places such as the supply and marketing cooperatives, grain stations, and Xinhua Bookstore in Liaobei City that he would need to visit frequently in his future life.
This time, since Shen Zhengrong had already helped to buy everything the family needed, and Ding Hongye's family didn't need to buy anything, they didn't stay in the city for long.
After the car drove out of the city, it took almost two hours to reach the military area.
From a distance, you can see the slogan "Obey the party's command, be able to win battles, and have good work style" hanging on the military district's wall.
After arriving at the gate of the military district, Shen Chuning and Ding Hongye, who had just arrived, needed to register at the guard office.
Everyone got off the car.
The guard was very surprised to see Zhou Yubai, "Zhou Tuan, you're back! Hello, Zhou Tuan!"
Zhou Yubai nodded and saluted in return, "This is my wife, please help me register her."
The guard looked at Shen Chuning and was stunned for a moment.
This... is Zhou Tuan’s wife?
This is so beautiful!
He had never seen such a beautiful female comrade, even prettier than those in his army's art troupe.
No wonder the comrades who had previously carried out missions with Zhou Tuan said that Zhou Tuan had fallen into the arms of a gentle woman and gave up his bright future in the front-line troops and was transferred to the logistics troops.
If only he could marry a beautiful wife like this...
The guard's thoughts were becoming more and more distracted, when he suddenly felt a deadly gaze falling on him.
He reacted and quickly stood at attention and saluted Shen Chuning, “Hello, sister-in-law!”
When Zhou Yubai was in the logistics unit, Shen Chuning went to the camp. Now facing the salutes of the soldiers, she has become much calmer.
He shook hands with the other party and said, "Hello, comrade."
After completing the registration, she took out a bottle of spicy dried fish that she had prepared long ago and gave it to the guard. "Comrade, thank you for your help. I brought this from home. Take it and try it."
