Chapter 58 Thrilling
After paying the public grain, the team leader asked everyone to go shopping on their own. They only needed to take the carts, sacks, shoulder poles, etc. with them. Also, they didn't have to work that afternoon, so those who wanted to buy things could bring their own things.
"Momo, let's go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner." Han Yimo looked at the watch on his wrist and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock, so he suggested.
"There must be a lot of people at the Tianzhu State-owned Restaurant. I don't know if I can get a seat." Qiao Mo was not optimistic about this proposal.
"Brother Yuan, you and Momo take up a seat together, I'll pull the back of the car over."
"Okay, let's go first." Kang Mingyuan took Qiao Mo's hand and walked away quickly.
"Brother Yuan, I'll walk by myself." Qiao Mo looked at the hand he was holding, and a trace of discomfort flashed through her heart. In her previous life, this was the first time she held hands with a boy.
"I'm sorry, I was rude." Kang Mingyuan retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted, his face turned red like a cooked shrimp, his heart was pounding, and it seemed like his heart was going to jump out of his chest.
"Let's go. If we don't leave now there will be no seats left." Qiao Mo pretended to be calm, but the blush on her face told others that she was not as calm as she appeared.
The two walked silently on the street and didn't say another word until they got to the state-owned restaurant, but they were both uneasy. Ripples appeared in Qiao Mo's heart, and an inexplicable emotion was slowly spreading, as if it was called throbbing.
Kang Mingyuan clenched the hand that he had just held with Qiao Mo into a fist. Qiao Mo's body temperature was still on the hand. He wanted to hold her body temperature and let it stay for a while longer. In the past, he just regarded Qiao Mo as a sister, but now this feeling seems to have changed a little. He didn't know whether this was good or bad.
"Momo, you take the seat and I'll order the food." They were lucky as there were two empty tables in the state-owned restaurant.
"Okay." Qiao Mo recovered his mood and found a table to sit down.
Kang Mingyuan looked at Qiao Mo and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that she was normal. However, he also felt a little inexplicably disappointed. He suppressed his emotions and walked to the service desk: "Comrade, we would like one order of braised pork, one order of beef and potatoes, one order of stir-fried water spinach, and three bowls of rice."
"Three dollars and eight cents, half a pound of meat coupons, and nine ounces of grain coupons." The waiter said as he issued the ticket.
Kang Mingyuan counted out the money and handed it to her, then took the ticket from her hand and handed it to Qiao Mo.
"silently······"
"Brother Yuan, I treat you as my brother. There's nothing wrong with holding hands." Qiao Mo interrupted him. Indeed, in later generations, hugging was nothing, let alone just holding hands. But in this era, holding hands was a very intimate act, and even lovers rarely did so.
She admitted that she was a little moved, and Kang Mingyuan was also a good person, but she was still young, and her feelings for him were at most more than friendship, and she was not yet at the stage of falling in love.
"I know." Kang Mingyuan thought that he didn't want to be a brother, but she was still young and hadn't figured it out yet, so it was not the time for her to talk about feelings. Besides, his current situation was not suitable for talking about feelings either, so he could only swallow the words on the tip of his tongue.
"Brother Yuan, Momo, what dishes did you order?" At this time, Han Yimo walked in hurriedly.
"Sit down and have a rest first, and drink some water." Kang Mingyuan handed him his kettle and told him about the dishes he ordered. "We're lucky! Not only do we have braised pork, but we also have beef. We're in for a treat."
"Well, I'm so lucky." Han Yimo took a few sips of water and nodded happily. He hadn't eaten beef since he came here. He didn't expect to be able to eat it today. It was really a good decision to come here.
The speed of the state-owned restaurant was quite good. Soon, the waiter called out that the braised pork and beef with potatoes were ready. Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo served the food together.
