Chapter 172

In the evening, Jiang Xue took a shower, and when she was drying her hair, she stepped on the carpet with bare feet, not to mention, it was quite comfortable.

The color of the carpet is very bright, and the handwork is also very good. It is a unique craftsmanship of this era, and it is strong and thick.

Although Lu Yan didn't say anything, Jiang Xue also knew that he must have taken the trouble to choose.

Turning off the hair dryer, Jiang Xue lay down in front of the bed, glanced at the carpet, and said to herself, can I get something delicious for Lu Yan in a few days?After all, such a large piece of carpet.

Lu Yan had been on a business trip for half a month, and naturally he was busy with a lot of things when he came back. From the next day, he either worked overtime or took people back and forth between the provincial capital and the city.

Soon it will be March [-]st, the second distribution of food stamps, Jiang Xue will still go with Aunt Jiang, but there is no rush to buy things, and there is no rush to crowd people.

The next day, Aunt Jiang went out to hand in a job and went to the grain station to buy grain, and Jiang Xue also took the opportunity to go out.

She found a public toilet, disguised herself, and went to the black market.

Today is also the second day of February when the dragon rises, and the black market happens to be open, so she went to see what opportunities there are.

I thought that the food stamps were issued yesterday, and there would not be many people on the black market today. Unexpectedly, there are still many people on the black market.

Maybe it's because the weather is still cold, whether it's business or shopping, they are all packed tightly.

Jiang Xue is quite familiar with the road, she didn't intend to sell anything, but was looking for something on the black market.

"Is there any malted milk?"

"So expensive."

"Is there any fine grain?"

"I want fine grains."

"Is there any cotton?"

"No? That's a pity."

"If you want to buy a few catties of meat, hare and pheasant are also fine. Don't you have it? Sigh, I haven't seen the smell of meat in the house for a long time."

After wandering around, Jiang Xue changed to another black market.

She dealt with food for lunch, and after searching two places, she changed her disguise and went to the department store again.

To do business, you have to know what goods are in short supply in the market, otherwise, where can you make money.

By the time she got home, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

After entering the door, I habitually called my godmother, then picked up the thermos bottle and poured a glass of water, gulped half of it, let out a breath, and then drank the rest of the water.

Aunt Jiang saw Jiang Xue's thirst, and while yelling for her to slow down, she came up and poured her a second cup.

"You kid, you've been out for a day, are you starving? The godmother will make you something to eat."

"No need, godmother, I've already had lunch." Jiang Xue called people to stop quickly, and said, "But godmother, I'm a little tired after walking all day, and you will make dinner today."

"Okay, just take a good rest."

Actually, Jiang Xue was so thirsty because she ate half a catty of five-spice jerky.

Jerky is an addictive thing. A thin strip is very convenient to eat, and it is salty and delicious. One piece is not enough, two are not enough. Slowly, the more you eat, the more you want to eat it.

If Jiang Xue's cheeks were not sore, she would still be chewing now.

For dinner, Aunt Jiang made noodles with fried sauce, and each of the three shared a bowl. However, Jiang Xue ate a lot in the afternoon, so she gave some of the noodles in the bowl to Dabao Jiang, and gave some chopsticks to Aunt Jiang.

"Why do you eat so little today?"

Jiang Xue chuckled: "Mother, I was hungry when I was outside today, so I went to a state-run restaurant to eat. I ate three big buns, so I couldn't eat."

When Aunt Jiang heard this, she didn't force her anymore.

Since Jiangcheng city lacked supplies, the provincial capital must also be lacking.

Two days passed.

Jiang Xue made a tomato beef noodle and delivered it to Lu Yan before lunch.

"When Xiao Lu was away, Comrade Jiang never showed up."

"The police officer Lu is not here, what is Comrade Jiang doing here?"

"Hey, now that Captain Lu is here, Comrade Jiang is here."

Amidst the teasing of the people in the office, Lu Yan looked up at the yard, and saw Jiang Xue carrying a thermos bucket towards the office.

Lu Yan got up quickly, and when he walked to the door of the office, Jiang Xue just stepped on the steps.

After three steps, the two confronted each other at the door of the office.

"Jiang Xue, why are you here?" Lu Yan asked, then smiled again: "What delicious food did you make for me?"

Jiang Xue smiled, and handed over the thermos bucket in her hand: "You will know when you open it."

Seeing that Lu Yan likes fried noodles at dinner last time, Jiang Xue made noodles again today.

For this tomato beef noodle, she used two or three taels of noodles, fearing that Lu Yan, a man with a big appetite, would not be able to eat enough, so she added more ingredients.

Two tomatoes were used, half a catty of beef was used, and more than half of an insulated bucket was filled.

Lu Yan opened it as he said, and after seeing it, he was a little surprised, and smiled: "It's just right, it's time for dinner, let's eat together."

Jiang Xue shook her head: "This is for you, I have already eaten it."

The seafood noodles she and Aunt Jiang Jiang Dabao ate, the seafood noodle soup made with shrimps, fish, and clams, were delicious, and the three of them each ate a large bowl.

"Then you brought me too much." Lu Yan laughed: "You are feeding me like a pig."

Jiang Xue curled her lips when she heard the words: "Didn't I see you as a big man, and I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat and be hungry?"

Lu Yan just said casually, and seeing Jiang Xue pouted, she seemed unhappy, and said quickly: "No, I can't talk, Jiang Xue, I mean, I mean, it's a bit much, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it and waste it .”

"Then I'll do less next time." Jiang Xue thought about it, waste is indeed wrong.

"correct."

Jiang Xue passed Lu Yan to look at the office behind him, and signaled to Lu Yan to follow her into the yard with some embarrassment.

Jiang Xue didn't speak until the two came to the yard.

"Lu Yan, I came to see you for something."

"Well, can you give me a certificate?"

Lu Yan was puzzled: "Why do you issue a certificate? Are you going on a long trip?"

Jiang Xue nodded: "I'm going to the provincial capital for some business. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back late. I want to say that if I can't catch the bus, I can stay in the guest house for one night."

Hearing this, Lu Yan did not hesitate: "Okay."

"When are you going?"

"In a few days."

Lu Yan nodded and asked Jiang Xue to go back first, and he would send her there at night.

"You don't need to trouble yourself to make a trip, I'll just come over when the time comes."

"Let me go. You come here twice a day. It's not suitable. I just happened to send the things back to you."

Jiang Xue didn't insist on it for a day.

She thought that Lu Yan was talking about the agency, and that her coming twice a day would have a bad influence on Lu Yan. How did she know that Lu Yan meant that she was a lesbian, and she went to his side twice a day, fearing that others would look down on her.

Jiang Xue brought food to Lu Yan, and the two went to the yard to have a shy talk. After Jiang Xue left, Lu Yan came in with an insulated bucket.

The people in the office looked at it for a while, their eyes were full of understanding, and before Lu Yan sat down, they teased.

"Captain Lu, did Comrade Jiang bring you something delicious?"
