Back to the era: Xiao Tianbao tore up the cannon fodder script

Chapter 354 The water is deep

Reluctantly got up, then walked to the window and looked down.

Sure enough, many uncles and aunts were holding bowls and chatting while eating at the bottom of the building.

Chen Xuelin gave a thumbs up, and some wanted to teach them to dance in the square.A gathering of middle-aged and elderly people without square dancing is soulless.

But she dare not.It's not because there is no square dance in this era, but because I am afraid that I will never be able to sleep in from now on.

He walked into the bathroom in a daze, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and washed his hair by the way.Then wrapped her wet long hair with a towel and sat down at the dining table.

Gu Cheng hurried over and took the breakfast out of the space.A boiled egg, a glass of pure milk, and bread with jam.

"Let's eat this today, and in the evening, when I come back from buying briquettes, let's start the fire again."

Mentioning this, Chen Xuelin thought: "Are you going to get food today?" It's the beginning of the month, so it should be time to buy food with the food book!

Gu Cheng also reacted, patted his forehead and said, "Oops, I forgot."

Chen Xuelin asked: "If we go now, is it too late?"

"I don't know, let's go and have a look after dinner."

Chen Xuelin speeded up her meal, and Gu Cheng was behind her, helping her to brush her hair.A few minutes later, the two changed their clothes and went out.

As for what to wear, of course it is a white shirt and black pants.It looks generous and capable, and it is a must-have product for work and travel.

Chen Xuelin and Gu Cheng discussed it, they can't flaunt their wealth, but there's no need to deliberately pretend to be poor.Set the tone from the very beginning - small and rich.In this way, no one will doubt the source of funds for eating meat and buying clothes in the future.

When they went downstairs neatly, everyone was greeted with curious eyes.

"Xiao Chen dresses really smartly. This is, are you going to work?"

"Yes, auntie, on the first day of work, you have to make a good impression on the leader."

Chen Xuelin asked with a smile: "Auntie, is the grain station releasing grain today?"

"Yes!" It was only after he finished speaking that he realized that these two young people probably didn't know how to get the food yet.

"Have you brought your food book?"

"Bring it!" Chen Xuelin took out the food book from the messenger bag and gave the other party a look.

The aunt pointed in one direction: "Liang stands over there, a white house, and you can see it after a ten-minute walk. But you came out a bit late, and I guess there are only coarse grains left."

Chen Xuelin was shocked: "Is fine grains so popular?"

"Of course, the grain station has hundreds of catties of fine grain every month, which is not enough for everyone to share. If you want fine grain, you have to queue up all night. If you go late, there will be nothing left."

As soon as the aunt finished speaking, her daughter-in-law came back.Holding two woven bags in his hands, he took a step and panted three times.

"Mother, I snatched five catties of flour today!" The little daughter-in-law had a smug smile on her face.

The aunt clapped her hands happily, and said to Chen Xuelin, "Xiao Chen, hurry up to the grain station, it's late, be careful that the coarse grains are gone."

After speaking, I went to help my daughter-in-law carry the woven bag.

Chen Xuelin nodded and left with Gu Cheng.After experiencing such a thing, she can be regarded as knowing how rich she is.

The fine grains filled with two bead spaces are absolutely incomparably rich in this era.

But she had to hang on, and she couldn't let others see the clues.Went to the grain station with Gu Cheng, and found that there were not many people queuing here.

Chen Xuelin raised his hand and looked at the time, it was seven fifteen.I figured that if I act quickly, I should be able to get the food before eight o'clock.It's just that I'm in a rush, so I might be late.

Gu Cheng stepped forward to take a look, and after confirming that there was no fine grain, he started to flicker from the end of the line.

"Brother, can you let me be in the front row? I have to go to work later, and my salary will be deducted if I go late."

"Sister, can you make it easier for me? I just moved here and couldn't figure it out, and the first time I got the food, I missed the time. Sigh, I have to go to work later!"

"Auntie."

"Grandpa."

The people who lined up were very reasonable, and after listening to Gu Cheng's nagging, they gave up their seats in front of them.Of course, if you ignore the fruit candies in their hands.

Gu Cheng flung out the sugar-coated cannonballs, all the way to the green light, and it took only 1 minute to get to the front of the line.

The staff of the grain station looked at Gu Cheng in confusion, thinking that this person was at the end of the line just now, why did he come to the front so quickly?

But seeing that everyone has no objections, it's fine.He asked with a dark face, "What do you want?"

Without any timidity, Gu Cheng handed over the food book with a smile: "What do you want!" Along with the food book, there was also a pack of cigarettes.

The staff covered it casually, and looked up at Gu Cheng: "Yo, new here?"

"Yeah, I just moved here, and it's the first time I'm back at the grain station."

The staff smiled kindly: "It's okay, people here are friendly, whatever you want, I'll pretend for you."

That being said, the action doesn't stop.First, he quietly put the cigarettes in his pocket, and then took Gu Cheng's grain bag to the warehouse.

Wait until they come out and quote directly, a total of fourteen.

Gu Cheng knew that this price was higher than the price of grain purchased by the central government.But he didn't say anything, obediently gave the money, and took the grain bag away.

He and Chen Xuelin hid in the alley, opened the woven bag, and found that there was not only flour but also rice inside.

It's just that the quantity is not much, two or three catties each.But the cornmeal gave me a full five catties.The rest are beans and sweet potatoes.

Gu Cheng chuckled: "It seems that the water inside is quite deep."

Chen Xuelin nodded: "The ones you gave away are enough to buy several catties of flour."

Gu Cheng didn't take it seriously: "We are pressed for time, so it's worth paying a little money to solve the trouble."

Chen Xuelin also knew, tied the opening of the woven bag, and asked Gu Cheng, "Do you want to put it away?"

Although there is no one here, if you can accept it, you have to act quickly.

Gu Cheng shook his head: "This is something on the surface, so I won't accept it."

After speaking, he took out three boxes of eight pieces from the space, and gave one of the boxes to Chen Xuelin: "Give this to Director Zhao when you report for duty."

Chen Xuelin patted his forehead, thinking why his memory is so bad.He just gave gifts to Bai Liuyou and Tian Mantun yesterday, so he can forget about it today.

But the problem is not big, I changed it to a larger messenger bag for myself.After thinking about it, I stuffed another catty of fruit candy into the bag.

"This should be okay for colleagues to eat, right?" Chen Xuelin asked.

"Yes." Gu Cheng raised his hand and rubbed her head: "In the new environment, remember to talk less and listen more."

Chen Xuelin smiled: "I know, now is a special period." Speech is not as free as later generations, and it is easy to be caught in the pigtails.

Gu Cheng knew that she was measured, so he didn't say much.The two followed each other towards the textile factory, and arrived at about 45:[-].

Chen Xuelin raised her hand to look at the time, and felt that she was early.As a result, the factory was buzzing with people, all of whom came to work.

He raised his hand to bid farewell to Gu Cheng, and then walked briskly into the factory under the other's reluctant eyes.

Seeing that she didn't miss her, Gu Cheng twitched a smile.Shaking his head, he rode to the Armed Forces Department.
