Deng Qingling brought the food to the table, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
First, I picked up a piece of braised beef in soy sauce. I saw that the meat was oily and red in soy sauce, and the beef tendon was yellow and transparent. The colors were really tempting!
Deng Qingling could no longer hold back and put it in her mouth. It was mellow and not greasy, with a strong aroma of sauce. After chewing it, she found that the meat was firm, intact and not loose, tender, soft, crispy and refreshing. It was a rare delicacy.
Deng Qingling was very satisfied with the meal. The braised beef was so delicious and the portion was very large. Before she knew it, she had finished the whole plate of braised beef and two bowls of rice.
Seeing that no one around was paying attention to her, Deng Qingling touched her protruding belly.
I ate too much because the braised beef was so delicious.
Such delicious food, you must pack it up to take away, braised beef in soy sauce is a rare opportunity!
Thinking of this, Deng Qingling quickly stood up and walked to the window.
"Comrade, do you have any beef left? I'd like to buy some to take away." As he said this, he stuffed two cents into the waitress's hand when he saw that no one was paying attention.
Perhaps for other people who have jobs in the city, food coupons are more important than money. Even if you have money but no food coupons, you cannot buy food.
This waitress looked only about seventeen or eighteen years old. She could work in a state-owned restaurant, which was a lucrative place. She must have someone backing her up, so she had no shortage of food and meat.
She would not refuse the money that was offered to her door, as long as she could get the job done for her.
"Comrade, do you want braised beef or raw beef?" Even if it was only two cents, the waiter was tempted.
Who complains about having too much money?
"I want both. How much can you give me?" Only children make multiple-choice questions, while adults want everything. Deng Qingling wanted more, as the beef was just right for Haohao's complementary food.
"I'll go ask."
The waitress didn't expect Deng Qingling to have such a big appetite and wanted to have both.
After about three or four minutes, the waitress came out and said, "Raw beef is 76 cents per pound with a ticket, 98 cents without a ticket. Braised beef with a ticket is 50 cents per portion, 70 cents per portion without a ticket. I can sell you a maximum of one pound of raw beef and two portions of braised beef."
"Then I'll take them all. Comrade, please see if you have any beef bones or something like that. If you do, please weigh some for me." Deng Qingling said as she stuffed three dollars into the waitress's pocket.
The waitress nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go in and buy it for you."
Then he went into the kitchen and quickly brought out some meat for Deng Qingling. The beef was very lean, and there were also some beef tripe, beef hooves, ribs, beef bones, etc.
No one wanted the bones in the first place, but now that someone wanted them, they packed them up and gave them to Deng Qingling.
Deng Qingling saw that the bones were real bones without any meat on them, but she didn't dislike them. Bones can be used to make soup, and beef bone and radish soup is very delicious.
These bones were not worth much, so the waitress returned the remaining two cents to Deng Qingling, but Deng Qingling refused to take it.
"Comrade, we are about the same age, so let's just be friends! I'm sorry to bother you today." Deng Qingling said.
"You are too polite. You don't have to be so polite even if we are friends!" The waitress returned the money to her directly.
"Yes, this is what you deserve," Deng Qingling said as she stuffed the money into her hand.
Li Chunmei saw that Deng Qingling was eager to get to know her and smiled. She had a good impression of Deng Qingling and thought it was no big deal to have more friends, so she said, "My name is Li Chunmei, I'm seventeen years old, and Chen Jinfu, the restaurant chef, is my uncle."
Deng Qingling knew it was safe when she heard her say that, so she introduced herself, "My name is Deng Qingling, I'm 19 years old, and I live in Lixia Brigade, Jiangying Town. The village chief is my father-in-law, you'll know if you ask around."
"Aqing, you're getting married so soon?" Li Chunmei was surprised.
"I got married at the age of seventeen and had a child at the age of eighteen. The child is now eight or nine months old." Deng Qingling said with a smile.
"Your figure is really hard to tell. You've given birth to a child!" Li Chunmei didn't want to say that she envied her figure, with its curvy figure.
"Chunmei, can I come to see you when I come to the county town next time?" Deng Qingling asked.
"Sure, if you want to buy meat, come to me. I can't guarantee more, but a pound or half a pound is fine. By the way, do you have a lunch box? I haven't packed the braised beef for you yet! I'll get the sauce for you."
"Yes, I brought a lunch box." Deng Qingling said as she reached into her bag and took out a lunch box with her mind.
Deng Qingling didn't expect that this trip to the county town would also find a way to get the meat in her space.
"Come with me and I'll install it for you." Li Chunmei said in a low voice.
Deng Qingling walked to the kitchen door and watched Li Chunmei packing food for her. It was full, more than enough for two servings.
That forty cents was well spent.
After packing up her things, Deng Qingling said goodbye to Li Chunmei and walked out of the state-owned hotel.
When he reached a deserted place, he put the things in the basket into the space, and then put some dried vegetables, cabbage, potatoes and soybeans into the basket. These things were all for Deng Xiaomei.
It hadn't rained for almost a month since the Chinese New Year's Eve, and there was nothing to eat in the fields, so Deng Qingling sent them some farm vegetables.
Deng Qingling greeted the security guard as usual and entered the hospital's family area. As soon as she walked downstairs, she saw a fat lady coming down with a child.
The fat aunt was very excited when she saw Deng Qingling and hurriedly walked up to Deng Qingling.
She told her family about what happened last time, and they all said she was timid and didn't buy food that was delivered to her door. She couldn't miss it again this time.
