Era: Retired from the army at the beginning and returned home

Chapter 98 Xiaoyu, I also want to eat in the canteen (more updates)

After eating in the cafeteria, Luo Cheng had to leave the factory and go back. There were still his things in the office, and it was hard to take them back all at once. I plan to do it in two parts. I will take the coal stove and hot water kettle back first, and the pots and the like tomorrow. But on the way back, he planned to take a detour from the grain store. This fine grain is not enough to eat, and he can't get used to eating coarse grain. Thinking that there is no good place to sign in today, he might as well go to the grain store to sign in.

When Luo Cheng arrived at the grain store, it was already closed. He could not enter the store and had to approach the door.

"System, sign in."

"Successfully signed in and received two pounds of rice, one pound of corn kernels, one pound of flour, one pound of cornmeal, two sweet potatoes, and half a pound of soybeans."

Looking at the things signed in the system, I feel that it is okay. Except for sweet potatoes, which are miscellaneous grains, and soybeans and corn kernels, which are coarse grains, the others are considered refined grains. Moreover, the cornmeal obtained is the true cornmeal of later generations, flour made from pure corn.

Because he was carrying something in his hand, Luo Cheng went home immediately after signing in.

Longyang Town, Luo Family.

At this time, everyone had a large number of people, and they were all listening to Luo Xiaoyu talking about things in the city. Everyone was very interested except Shishi.

The reason why Luo Shishi was a little unhappy was simple. My sister just talked about eating in the eldest brother's cafeteria. The food was fried with lard and was very fragrant. She also said that she ate seven bowls of rice in total. Although the rice is not packed in a big bowl like at home, and the lunch box may be filled with less each time, it is always enjoyable to eat.

Originally, Luo Shishi had said that she would go to the city with her sister Luo Xiaoyu to find her elder brother, but she was not allowed to go because she did not want to waste the round-trip ticket money. But as my sister just said, she didn’t have to pay for the bus ride back and forth. The bus driver and her eldest brother are now very close, and he also recognized her as Luo Cheng’s sister. He didn’t ask for money when he went there, but when he came back he Not to mention, it was Luo Cheng who sent him to the car without paying him.

Thinking about it, I didn't get any money for the fare. If I went there myself, I could eat in the cafeteria where my eldest brother worked, just like my sister. Although she is more than a year and a half younger than her sister, she feels that she can still eat seven bowls of rice. Moreover, the eldest brother also took his sister around the city and saw a lot of things, which she also wanted to do.

"Xiaoyu, your brother promised to come back. He should be back tomorrow. I've said it will be in the morning or afternoon."

"No, eldest brother said he would come back to help Bingzi go to the wedding. He didn't say whether he would take the bus tomorrow morning or the afternoon."

"Well, then you and Shishi should pick up your eldest brother at the intersection tomorrow morning. If you don't pick him up in the morning, you can go there again in the afternoon."

Father Luo Wen explained that now that the weather was getting cold, Luo Cheng had brought quilts and other things to the city. Maybe he would bring quilts back this time, but since they had nothing to do anyway, they might as well pick up people.

There are not many quilts at home now. In winter, the family will get a straw quilt to lay on top. The main reason is that there are many people in the family and we cannot afford so many quilts.

In the past, when Xiao Yu and Shi Shi were little, they could squeeze in two quilts with their parents when the weather was cold. Now that they are older and cannot squeeze in, they can only add straw quilts when the weather is cold.

On this condition, Luo Cheng is considered good. Some rural people have large families and it is extremely cold in winter. Four or five people squeeze into one bed and cannot afford charcoal to burn. People who sleep outside often don't have enough quilts to cover them, and it's very cold every day when they sleep. Some people even just hide in the grass nests, the kind of grass nests used to feed cattle.

The shabby cotton-padded jacket worn in winter is also used as a quilt on top of the quilt when sleeping at night. Anyway, there are many people in the family and they do not sleep on the same bed. The number of people who want to cover themselves with two quilts is very rare in rural areas.

Xiaoyu and Shishi both nodded and picked up their eldest brother. Even if their father didn't say anything, they were actually willing to take the initiative.

In the evening, except for grandma and Xiao Yu, who ate one steamed bun, everyone else ate two. Grandma was old and let other people eat, but Xiaoyu ate so much at the canteen in the city at noon, so she brought ten cornbread back, which was not enough to divide evenly, so naturally she ate one less.

Now at home, everyone eats dry steamed buns with rice porridge at noon, and goes to bed shortly after eating at night. We usually don’t make steamed buns.

After the meal, the two girls helped wash the bowls and pots in the kitchen before going back to the room to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Xiaoyu didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead, she was a little excited and talked to Shishi about what would happen if she went to live in the city in the future.

"Xiaoyu, I also want to eat in the canteen."

Of course Shishi would also daydream about living in the city in the future, but now she was still thinking about eating in the canteen, and couldn't help but hold Xiaoyu in her arms and express her thoughts.

After all, Shishi is only a fourteen-year-old person, and will be a child in future generations. This age is indeed very sensible, but when faced with some things, the child's side finally shows up. The old saying that girls are greedy may be true.

"Shishi, we may go into the city with my eldest brother the day after tomorrow. Then I will ask my eldest brother to get you some sweets."

"I'm not a child anymore, don't coax me with candy. I just want to eat in the cafeteria."

"Okay, let me take you to the cafeteria, and you can eat seven bowls of rice."

"I can eat eight bowls."

"Well, you are better than my sister. You eat eight bowls."

At night, the moon hung high, as if smiling at the whispers of the two little girls.

The next day, Ngee Ann City, courtyard room.

Yesterday, there was a stove and a hot water kettle. I wanted to ask my neighbors to borrow some coal to boil water. I said that I would return the coal to them tomorrow if I bought it. But the borrowing failed, not because the neighbor was stingy and refused to borrow, but because he didn't know how to live a good life, and how could he waste a coal just by heating water?

Generally, when people boil water, they boil water after dinner in the evening. Some people even save money. After burning water, they feel that coal can still burn, so they kill it with water and put it outside to dry in the sun the next day. Even if it turns into cinders, they continue to use it.

So the neighbor asked Luo Cheng to fill the hot water bottle with water and boil it on their stove. This is actually a normal exchange between neighbors. Today one borrows some salt, and tomorrow the other borrows a match. Even if someone at home is sick and unable to move, he will not be polite. He is really treating his neighbors as one of his own family members and calling for help.

The same is true for Luo Cheng. If you really need help, don't feel embarrassed for small things or just to help. If you think anyone can help, just come to the door and call, no need to be polite. But everyone has a sense of propriety. If your family is short of food, don’t go to your neighbors to ask for help, unless you have a really good relationship with them and you understand their food situation.

Although the thermos is an old one brought back from the cafeteria, it is still very well insulated. The factory director also said that if the bladder of the bottle is not insulated, take it back and replace it quickly.

After brushing your teeth, wash your face with hot water. It feels very comfortable.

Today's 'task' is very important. He has thought about it. It is painting cakes anyway. It is not just going to the breeding farms to draw cakes, but also to the clothing factories and textile factories. The cakes should be painted for them first. A car, this cake The temptation is not small.

I wanted to lie down for a while at night, but I actually fell asleep. I just wrote this chapter. Oh, damn it. I slept so well. Why do I still get up to type? I really don’t care about my body. (Just kidding, of course keep updated)

I still owe Chapter 32, so it may be a bit watered down. So let’s reveal a bit about tomorrow’s plot. The content is not written, but the title is Chapter 98, Crazy Painting.

Thanks to the brothers who continue to reward, vote, and vote monthly. Happy weekend.
