Chapter 23 Slowly teaching her



The guards quickly ran forward and stopped Shen Hui.

"Comrade, please don't be unreasonable."

"You dare to stop me? Get out of my way, or don't blame me for being impolite."

She didn't take to heart anything Yingyue and Shen Hui said when they were in the village a few days ago.

They really thought that just because she was a reborn woman, she could act with impunity.

He acts superior to everyone, without even considering his own status.

Undoubtedly, her rude harassment led to her being restrained by the guards and taken to the nearby police station.

………

Yingyue's first visit to a state-run hotel.

Looking at the menu for today hanging above, she felt it looked delicious just from the names.

Yingyue swallowed hard, completely lacking any backbone.

The ticket seller, who was cleaning at the front desk, found Yingyue's appearance somewhat amusing.

"Comrade, what would you like to eat?"

Xiao Hong asked Yingyue.

Yingyue blinked, she wanted to eat them all, what should she do?

Her intentions were too obvious; Xiao Hong saw through them at a glance.

She smiled and suggested that Yingyue ask her family for their opinions.

Yingyue let out a soft "oh," then turned and ran back to Huo Cheng's side.

"Huo City, Huo City".

"Where are the money coupons Auntie gave me? How much meat can I buy with them?"

Although she was very tempted, she did not forget what Huo Cheng had just taught her: you need money and coupons to buy things.

She didn't know if they had enough money to buy meat.

At this moment, Yingyue's clear eyes were exceptionally bright, filled with a longing for meat.

Huo Cheng's heart softened at the sight; he was willing to eat anything, let alone meat.

He took the money and banknotes out of his pocket.

"How about Yingyue orders the food today?"

This is to cultivate her awareness of money management.

She will be living in this society from now on, and she will definitely have to learn the things she didn't learn in the mountains.

Fortunately, Huo Cheng has time and will teach her slowly, little by little.

After thinking for a moment, Yingyue realized that Huo Cheng wanted to test her.

She smiled and agreed.

Take the money and tickets and go order the food.

First, ask Xiao Hong how much the braised pork costs and how many tickets are needed.

Xiao Hong handed her a piece of paper.

The price list for all dishes at the state-run restaurant is displayed above.

"The items listed on the sign are what's available today. If there's no sign, then there's nothing available today."

Xiao Hong was very polite.

Yingyue nodded and started counting on her fingers.

Braised pork belly, 1.6 yuan per serving, requires 1 jin (500g) of meat coupons.

A serving of hibiscus chicken slices costs 2.75 yuan and also requires a pound of meat coupons.

Braised fish chunks, one dollar and fifty cents a serving, plus two ounces of meat coupons.

Fresh mushroom and bamboo shoot slices, two yuan a serving.

One ounce of rice costs three cents. Huo Cheng wants to eat three ounces of rice, while she only eats one ounce…

"One dollar and sixty cents plus two dollars and seventy-five cents plus..."

Yingyue looked at the tickets in her hand, took out the ones labeled "meat tickets," and found that the five tickets weighed two jin (1 kg) in total. If she wanted everything she ordered, they wouldn't have enough meat tickets.

But she really wanted to eat it...

Yingyue rubbed her stomach, feeling conflicted.

The little Pixiu is experiencing life for the first time, and it's its first time using money to buy things, so it has to start learning to save and be frugal...

"What's wrong?"

Huo Cheng waited for a while, but instead of her ordering, he saw her rubbing her stomach with her head down, which he found somewhat amusing.

He came forward in his wheelchair.

Yingyue looked up, pouting, "Everything is so expensive."

Huo City...

“If we eat, Auntie and Uncle will have nothing to eat.”

Liu Qiuyue gave her money to eat well, and Yingyue didn't forget that Liu Qiuyue and the others were still at home.

Although he has a bit of a sweet tooth, he is undeniably a filial Pixiu.

Huo Cheng really wanted to reach out and pinch her chubby cheeks.

He twitched his fingers, but ultimately decided against it, considering that they were outside.

"It's okay, order whatever you like."

"Mom gave you the money and tickets so you could manage them yourself."

"Um?"

Yingyue tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then her eyes lit up.

"Then I'll buy two servings of braised pork."

She shared one portion with Huo Cheng, and took the other portion back for her aunt and uncle.

"Yes, you can buy other things too."

As Huo Cheng spoke, he pulled out a two-jin (approximately 1 kg) nationally valid meat coupon from his trouser pocket.

"This is enough."

"Wow, Huo Cheng, you still have hostages?"

Yingyue was very happy, now she didn't have to worry about not being able to eat delicious food.

She handed the meat coupons and money to Xiao Hong and ordered all the dishes she wanted to eat.

Xiao Hong glanced at Huo Cheng.

"Comrade, are you sure?"

Huo Cheng nodded.

Xiao Hong knew what was going on.

This is a capable person who also dotes on his children.

Xiao Hong carefully put away the money and returned with a three-tael and a five-tael meat coupon.

Let Yingyue and the others find a place to sit. The dishes were served quickly.

While Yingyue was happily waiting for the delicious food, Shen Hui was taken to the police station.

Even after arriving at the police station, her attitude remained unchanged; she still acted as if everyone was inferior to her and that no one should mess with her.

"Comrade, if you continue to be uncooperative, we will have no choice but to send you to the committee so they can educate you."

The police officer frowned, disapproving of Shen Hui's current attitude.

Shen Hui's attitude softened slightly when she heard that she was going to be sent to the committee.

Still proud, just not as arrogant as before.

After being questioned by the police for a while, Shen Hui claimed that she was Huo Cheng's destined person.

public security……

If he remembered correctly, it was the guards from the compound who brought her here, saying it was Huo Cheng's idea.
