This is the state-owned hotel.
The Du family had already finished their meal and left.
Su Erhe did not meet them.
Actually, it’s not that interesting to meet him, but I still got humiliated a few times.
It’s better for us to be well.
There is a small blackboard next to the window, which lists the food sold today and the prices.
Su Erhe bought ten big meat buns. As usual, she copied one first, which means she had twenty big meat buns. When she came out of the state-owned restaurant, she took one and ate it. The crust was very fluffy, and the meat filling inside was even more surprising, a big ball.
She doesn't eat much, so she's full after eating just one.
Without further delay, she found her bicycle and rode back. When she was one-third of the way there, she put the bicycle into her space, then walked all the way back to the village, taking inventory of her things.
She gained a lot from this trip.
Two enamel washbasins, one large basin, four towels, two bars of soap, and two pieces of cloth.
There was more than thirteen yuan in cash and more than ten kilograms of food coupons.
Of course, there are also nineteen big meat buns.
She planned to return all the money and food coupons that Su's father and mother had given her.
There are also big meat buns to share with them.
As for the other stuff...
For now, she can only use it herself, and she can share it when she saves more.
"Sulhe!"
Thinking about something, Suerhe walked forward with his head down and didn't notice that there was a person leaning against the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.
He Zheng waited here for a long time. In the morning, he met Su Xiatian in the field. Su Xiatian was a talkative guy, so He Zheng easily asked about Su Erhe's whereabouts from him.
Knowing that Suerhe went to the county town, He Zheng almost beat Su Xiatian up.
Such an important matter, but he was not informed earlier.
At noon, he went to Su's house again and found out that Su Erhe had not returned home yet.
He Zheng has been waiting here.
Until finally the person I was waiting for came back.
As a result, Su Erhe couldn't see him at all.
He kept his head down and rushed forward.
He originally wanted to not call her, but then he thought, if he didn't call her, this person would probably rush home directly.
Hearing someone calling him, Su Erhe looked in the direction of the voice and naturally saw He Zheng.
He Zheng waited for her to ask why he was here.
He could just say he was waiting for her here.
Unexpectedly...
"That's right, I have something to talk to you about."
Okay, this girl thinks differently from others.
Anyway, just talk to him.
He Zheng walked over and asked, "Did you miss me after not seeing me for a long time?"
"You think too much," Su Erhe ruthlessly punctured his fantasy and took out a towel and two large meat buns from his bag. "These are for you."
Towels and meat buns?
What a magical combination.
He Zheng raised his thick eyebrows and unfolded the towel with his big hands. When he saw the pattern on the towel clearly, He Zheng showed his big white teeth with joy.
Su Erhe: "..."
how so?
I saw a white towel with two peony flowers in the middle and a big red "囍" character next to it.
"Do you believe me when I say I got the wrong one?"
I tried to get the towel back with a last-ditch effort.
He Zheng would never let her have her wish. He raised the corner of his mouth in a very good mood, "Su Erhe, are you so anxious to marry me? I don't mind, but your mother said that we have to wait until your eldest brother has his wedding before we can have ours. Otherwise, I'll go and urge my mother."
"He Zheng!"
Su Erhe really gave He Zheng the handle on his own initiative.
At that time, she was afraid of delaying Zou Zhou's work, so she touched the towel without even unfolding it to take a closer look.
Who would have thought that when the towel was unfolded, there would be such a pattern inside.
This time, even if I jump into the Yellow River, I can’t wash myself clean.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'll take the towel and you can eat the buns."
After returning the two buns to Suerhe, He Zheng left clutching the towel. He was tall and had long legs, so he walked away in just a few steps.
Su Erhe knocked his head.
I'm really confused!
…
Suerhe also cooked dinner that day, a big pot of fragrant porridge, sauerkraut and shredded pork as a side dish, and a big white flour meat bun for each person.
Su Erhe immediately returned the one dollar and two food coupons that Su's mother had given her. As for the two dollars and thirty cents from Su's father, she had to return it secretly, and she had not found the right time yet.
"Erhe, did your classmate return the money to you?" Mother Su looked at the white flour and meat buns on the table. It would be a lie to say she wasn't greedy. The chef at the state-owned restaurant was very skilled. The meat buns were tender and juicy. Once you had them, you'd never forget them. "Then you should spend less. You can just eat them yourself. Why did you buy so much?"
"Mom, I have some special connections."
A family living together for a long time will definitely not be able to hide it. Su Erhe does not intend to reveal the secret of the space, but she has to make up a reason, otherwise how can she explain the things in her space? Even if she doesn't take out all of them, the food at home will definitely get better slowly, and she will slowly get some daily necessities.
Su's mother was stunned, looked outside nervously, and then ran to close the door.
"You can't say this outside. If someone listens carefully and reports you, your connection...is it reliable? It's not worth sacrificing the rest of your life just for a few bites of food."
"No, I know my limits."
In order not to worry his family, Su Erhe did not plan to say much. Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.
Su's mother was still worried, and she said to the three men in the family, "Just eat, and don't tell anyone about it, especially you, Su Xiatian!"
Su Xiatian had already grabbed the white bread in her hand, and when she heard it, she cried out, "Mom, why are you scolding me again? When did I ever say anything nonsense?"
Su Erhe gradually got used to the Su family's way of getting along. He went to the kitchen in the back to wash his hands and then sat down to eat.
The white bread with meat filling was indeed delicious. Although Su's father and mother wanted to be more restrained, they couldn't help themselves and ate it all in big mouthfuls.
There is also sauerkraut. The sour dish is not very tasty, but after stir-frying it with shredded meat and soaking in the meat aroma, it is also very delicious.
The Su family was very satisfied with the meal.
Suddenly, Su's mother thought of something and solemnly put down her chopsticks, "Erhe, I have something else to say to you."
Seeing her expression, Su Erhe thought she was going to say something very important, so he put down his chopsticks and watched Su's mother look at her for a long time. He sighed, as if he was very embarrassed, and then said, "As women, we should be more reserved."
Su Erhe was confused.
Why isn't she reserved anymore?
"Mom, what do you mean?"
Mother Su looked at her and asked, "Did you send a towel to He Zheng? There's a double happiness character on it."
Su Erhe: "..."
It's quite bald.
How did Su's mother know about this?
"I can explain this. Yesterday, He Zheng gave me malted milk and candy. I felt embarrassed to accept his things, so I wanted to give him something back. I didn't have anything decent on hand, and my classmate happened to give me a towel, so I gave it to him. I didn't expect the pattern on the towel to be like that."
This is such a huge misunderstanding!
After hearing her explanation, Su's mother didn't seem relieved. "I definitely believe you, but..."
"Only what?"
Why does Su Erhe feel so uneasy?
Su Xiatian finally swallowed the last bite of her bun and interrupted loudly, "It's no use explaining to us. Everyone in the village knows that you sent a towel to He Zheng to propose marriage!"
Giving a towel = asking for marriage?
no!
Why did everyone in the village know that she gave He Zheng a towel?
