So many people around her couldn't persuade her, and in the end, no one cared about her, and she stopped crying.
Seeing that she had stopped crying, the waiter came over and asked, "Comrade, if you don't want to eat, can you please leave? It will disturb everyone else's meal."
Then Su Xiaoling was pushed and pulled out by the waiter.
After eating and drinking her fill, Su Ruoli returned to the guesthouse, thinking that she would go to the countryside tomorrow. She must send the account book to the police station today, and she also had to get up early to catch the train tomorrow, so she climbed into bed and went to sleep.
Su Ruoli was awakened by the knock on the door again. She resigned herself to her fate and crawled out of bed, turned on the light, opened the door, and found that it was the same people who checked the room last time. She looked at the time and it was just past two o'clock.
These people are so energetic, don’t they need to sleep?
After those who were staring at the roof and waiting for the room inspection had left and there was no movement outside, she climbed out the window again and put the account book at the door of the police station, ensuring that they would see it as soon as they arrived at work.
Su Shiqiang's name was on the account book, so she didn't have to write any more explanations.
After putting the account book away, she returned to the guesthouse and climbed through the window to enter the room. She looked at the time and saw that it was already past five o'clock. She didn't want to go to bed. She had to pack her bags. She couldn't go on the bus empty-handed, as that would arouse suspicion.
She packed the lunch boxes, enamel pots, and various snacks sold at the supply and marketing cooperative into a suitcase, which she had just bought today. Then she took two quilts from the space, packed them, and put them back into the space. She couldn't carry the things out. After all, she came in empty-handed. If she went out with a large bag of things, she would probably be regarded as a thief.
After packing up, she looked at the time. It was already past seven o'clock. Her train was at ten o'clock, so she still had time. She ran downstairs to check out of the room, then ran towards the state-owned hotel. When she reached the corner, she saw that there was no one there, so she quickly took out a basket from the space.
She arrived just in time for the first batch of buns to come out of the pot, and found that it was the same waiter from yesterday. "Sister, I want all of this batch. Can you help me put it in this basket?"
"Why do you want so many? Can you finish them?" The waiter was stunned. No one had ever bought so many buns at one time.
"Sister, I'm going to the countryside. The train is at 10 o'clock. I bought some food for the journey. Thank you for your help." He handed the basket to the waiter.
"Okay, wait a minute. Let me calculate for you. One bun costs fifty cents plus two taels of grain coupons and one tael of meat coupons. Because they're meat buns, they're a bit more expensive. This pot has thirty buns, so that's fifteen yuan, six catties of grain coupons, and three catties of meat coupons. Give me the money and coupons, and I'll pack the buns for you."
Su Ruoli took out the bills from her bag, counted out the money for the buns, and took out an extra fifty cents and handed them to the waitress, "Thank you, sister. I'll treat you to the buns."
The waiter took the money and started packing the buns happily.
Looking at the white and plump buns, Su Ruoli felt that she could hardly stop drooling. She held the basket in one hand and took out a bun with the other, eating while walking.
Ah, it smells so good. The buns have thin skin and big fillings, and they sizzle with oil when you bite into them. Food these days is really affordable and delicious. I finished a bun in just a few bites.
She looked at her watch and realized how time flies. It was almost nine o'clock and she had only bought a bun.
I ran all the way with the basket and finally arrived at the train station before ten o'clock. I took out my household registration book and got the train ticket at the counter responsible for registering educated youth going to the countryside. It was called a counter, but it was actually a table at the entrance of the train station.
When I entered the station, I found that the train had already stopped at the platform. I got on the train and found my seat, which was a window seat. I sat down and closed my eyes to rest.
