Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

With someone to keep us company, we chatted along the way, time flew by, and we soon reached our destination.

Lu Jiang did not take his girlfriend to the county seat, but went directly into the city.

He has not been idle these two days. While visiting old friends, he used his comrade's bicycle to explore the county and urban areas. Where are department stores, state-owned restaurants, and black markets? There's nothing he doesn't know.

Of course Feng Qingxue also knew that after getting a bicycle, she traveled around the city a lot.

"Let's eat first and then go to the department store after eating."

Stopping and walking along the way, it's noon now.

Lu Jiang had agreed with the staff of the state-owned hotel in advance that if there was any meat today, he would keep it for him.

He is a soldier, and he has military supplies and priority.

Sure enough, he and Feng Qingxue went to the restaurant to ask the waiter. The restaurant got a pork knuckle early in the morning. The cook had stewed it early and it was served at noon. The boss came to buy it but he didn't agree to give it to him.

Lu Jiang was overjoyed and said, "Comrade, you have taken the trouble and will send it to you now."

From the hotel's only menu, he ordered a stewed cabbage vermicelli, a stir-fried shredded radish, a garlic egg soup and ten large rolls of two-faced noodles, together with the elbows that he had ordered in advance, and paid the money and ticket. .

Prices in the city are the same as those in the county. A plate of stir-fried shredded radish costs three cents, a bowl of braised vermicelli with cabbage costs five cents, egg soup costs ten cents, and two and a half kilograms of elbow costs two and a half kilograms of meat coupons plus two yuan. , the steamed buns cost 20 taels of food stamps each, and an additional five cents were paid. In this meal, there were two kilograms of food stamps, two and a half kilograms of meat stamps, and two yuan and sixty-eight cents.

"Is the military supply ticket so useful?" Feng Qingxue asked after the waiter left.

"Of course, military stamps are given priority all over the country." Lu Jiang explained to her, "Take military food stamps as an example. When you get to the grain store, the staff will quickly give you the food without saying a word. If you take it, For other food stamps, if the staff doesn’t push you, you still have to wait in line, and no one can guarantee whether there will be food when you are in line.”

Feng Qingxue suddenly realized that, yes, military personnel were given priority in all aspects of transportation and accommodation. Of course, buying food was no different.

Soldiers protect their homes and country and must ensure their food, clothing, housing and transportation. The importance of military supply tickets is evident.

With the benefit of priority, the state-owned hotel naturally came to Lujiang first. No wonder the staff had such a good attitude.

During the conversation, the fragrant and oily braised pork elbow was brought up first. The sauce-colored meat skin was glowing red. There were no other ingredients in the soup except onion, ginger, pepper and star anise, but it was so fragrant that it made people salivate.

Steamed buns and egg soup were also served, and the soup noodles were steaming.

Feng Qingxue took a look and estimated that there was only one egg in the large bowl of egg soup, because she could clearly see the bottom of the bowl, but there were more garlic sprouts floating in the soup.

Lu Jiang asked the waiter for two bowls and a spoon, and first gave Feng Qingxue a bowl of soup.

"It's cold. Let's drink some soup to warm your stomach."

"Thank you, let's drink together." Feng Qingxue took a paper and handed it to him.

The rolls were not hot, and the black noodles were mixed with sorghum noodles. They were dark and a bit hard in the cold weather, so they had to be broken open and soaked in the soup.

She really didn't have a big appetite. A bowl of soup, a roll, and some meat and vegetables would make her 90% full. On the other hand, Lu Jiang soaked three rolls in soup. After making sure that Feng Qingxue was full, he took the rest. The soup and vegetables were all gone.

With such a good appetite, she must plan the food in the space carefully, Feng Qingxue murmured in her heart.
