We were enjoying the delicious meal when a middle-aged woman in blue work clothes hurried in from outside.
The middle-aged woman glanced around the lobby and saw the table next to Mu Qingli and the others where people were having blind dates. She walked over with a smile on her face.
"I'm sorry! My dear in-laws! My dear mother-in-law! I just got off work and I'm late!" The middle-aged woman greeted them with a smile and sat down at the table with Xu Lai Di and the others.
"It's not too late! We haven't finished eating yet! Eat it while it's hot!"
At this time, there were more people in the lobby who had finished their meals and left for work, making it seem a lot emptier. Mu Qingli and the others had finished their meals and were about to pack up their lunch boxes.
"What! This table of food! It cost twenty-eight yuan, and there are seven kilograms of food coupons?" The new middle-aged woman suddenly slammed the table, stood up, and pointed at Yang Wei and said sharply.
At first, the middle-aged woman was enjoying the meal and even quietly asked her son how much money he spent and how much he paid for the tickets.
Her son whispered something, and the middle-aged woman immediately got furious. She felt like she was going to die, and her heart, liver, spleen, and lungs all ached.
This isn't a blind date, it's bloodsucking! You're all giant mosquitoes, male and female, your whole family is full of mosquitoes. How can you be in-laws?
When Yang Wei's mother shouted like this, all the remaining diners in the hall looked over. Mu Qingli and the others were packing their meals in lunch boxes. The two onlookers were also attracted by the sound.
Qin Xiao and Mu Qingfeng looked at each other helplessly, and they continued to pack, leaving these two fun-loving people to watch the fun!
"I'm telling you, are you really going to rip off our family so harshly? Look, look, the dishes are all repeated. Are you planning to eat one portion and take one portion?" Yang Wei's mother said, pointing at the dishes on the table with trembling fingers.
Then he sat down, clutching his chest. "Oh, my heart aches! This is a month's salary for both of us, plus the food coupons! How many days of coarse grain porridge will we have to eat?"
In the hope of success, she went to a state-owned restaurant for a blind date to appear classy, and even gave her son some extra money to make things look good. That was a month's living expenses! That's how it was done!
"Mom! Don't be angry!" Yang Wei quickly comforted his mother.
"You prodigal son!" Yang Wei's mother angrily slapped Yang Wei's hand away and cursed.
"Mother-in-law! What do you mean?" Xu Lai Di's mother was unhappy and asked with a frown.
"How dare you ask me what I mean? It's not certain whether the two families can succeed. You have a son. Would your son do this when he goes on a blind date? On the other hand, even if it works out, would your family allow you to eat like this? Twenty-eight yuan, how many months can your family save twenty-eight yuan!" Yang Wei's mother didn't care whether she was a daughter-in-law or not, and just scolded her.
She can't accept a daughter-in-law from a family like this.
"Fourth Aunt, as a matchmaker, don't you know how to hold things together?" Yang Wei's mother blamed the matchmaker.
"...Chen Da Niu! How can you talk like that? This is just your son's way of showing off. What does it have to do with us?" The matchmaker, Fourth Aunt, didn't want to hear it anymore and said with her eyes wide open.
"...You just think my son is honest! How shameless of a bunch of adults to exploit a child?" Chen Danniu got angry and started yelling without caring about anything.
This caused a lot of discussion among the diners.
"Ouch! Just looking at one person, he actually spent twenty-eight dollars!"
"What girl is so precious?"
"Did you eat a gold brick?"
"The way he eats is really ugly. I guess he ate all the chicken, duck, fish, meat, and delicacies from land and sea that he hadn't eaten in ten years!"
"Didn't you hear? They're double portions. I'm planning on taking them home to continue eating!"
"greedy!"
"Who would dare to marry a girl like this? You can tell at a glance that she doesn't know how to live a normal life."
Listening to the discussions of people around her, Xu Lai Di felt so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she wished there was a hole in the ground for her to crawl into.
In this era, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are the most important things in life. Only wealthy families can solve the problem of food and clothing and eat fine grains.
Such a sumptuous feast would cost more than a mountain of gold and silver, so the diners would naturally speak in favor of the party who paid for the treat.
"Can you blame me for this? I've never eaten at a state-owned restaurant, so I don't know what to order. I said let's just order from the table next door! Your son has no right to object! Didn't you say your son is knowledgeable? Doesn't he know this? Doesn't he know the value of those meals? Why pretend to be a big eater if he can't afford it?" Xu Lai Di was also a tough girl. She scolded Yang Wei while crying and howling.
Chen Danniu was so angry that she was gasping for breath. Mu Qingli and the others were really afraid that they would lose their popularity.
At this moment, the diners in the lobby all looked at Mu Qingli and the others.
The two people watching the fun, the two people packing: ...and what about us? It doesn't cost money to watch the fun, right?
Mu Qingli and Wang Shuhui were caught watching the fun and could not help but blink their eyes innocently, looking confused.
The two people who were slowly packing couldn't help but speed up their hands.
A stack of lunch boxes was put into a net bag and carried.
Okay! This is really packed.
However, look at the appearance, clothing, and temperament of these people. Can you compare with them?
"And you want to order a table that matches what's on other people's tables! You're really picky. You only care about these people who are the most well-dressed, right? Why don't you look at the tables of other ordinary people around us who are covered in dust?" Chen Dani's words invisibly offended all the diners.
The downtrodden people: We're being shot even when we're lying down. What's wrong with us being downtrodden? We're proud of our downtrodden ways. We're workers, and we have power! You're talking as if you're not downtrodden...
Mu Qingli almost couldn't hold it in. Her cheeks hurt from trying so hard to hold back her laughter. But, come on! They were arguing, so it wouldn't be appropriate to laugh here, right? It would affect their performance!
