Chapter 378 It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early
Seeing that Chuxue was trying to extort money from her, the woman got off the bus as soon as it pulled into the station, cursing and yelling, "Trying to extort money from me? Dream on!"

Chu Xue also got off at this stop, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes: It seems this woman has tried to extort money more than once or twice. If she had a gentler personality today, she might have succeeded.

It's a pity she didn't check the almanac before going out today, and ran into herself.

As he picked up the fish and prepared to get off the bus, he turned to the ticket seller and said, "I'm sorry you had to go through all this trouble today."

The ticket seller probably didn't expect Chu Xue to say these things to her, and hurriedly waved her hand, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. Besides, it was that woman who was looking for trouble."

Chu Xue took two White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket, or rather, from her spatial storage, and stuffed them into the ticket seller's hand: "I'm so sorry to have made you get scolded. Here, sweeten your mouth and calm your nerves."

After saying that, before the ticket seller could say anything more, he picked up the urea bag and got off the bus.

The ticket seller laughed: "This young lady is a discerning person."

When Chu Xue brought the fish to the hospital cafeteria, Chef Hao, who was smoking outside, happened to see her: "Hey, Chu Xue, what brings you here today?"

Chu Xue pointed to the urea bag: "I came to the city on business today and thought I'd bring you some fish."

Chef Hao threw his cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it with his foot: "You really made the right choice today. We have a banquet tonight, and your fish delivery is just in time."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xue burst out laughing: "What a coincidence."

Chef Hao reached out to help Chu Xue carry the fish inside, but before he could even lift it, he exclaimed, "My goodness, you little girl are so strong!"

He saw Chu Xue carrying fish in, and now he couldn't even lift one himself, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

Chu Xue smiled and said, "I am indeed stronger than the average person."

As he spoke, he picked up the urea bag containing the fish and went straight into the cafeteria.

Chef Hao followed behind with a smile, calling out from afar, "Come quick, someone help! Chu Xue is coming!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately understood what he meant.

Some people were quick-witted and came over to help, while others were already getting ready to get the scales.

After the fish were weighed, Chef Hao said to the person next to him, "Go get a basin, sort out the fish, and see what to do tonight."

After saying that, Chef Hao went into the inner room and gave Chu Xue a receipt: "Go to the finance department to withdraw it later."

Chu Xue smiled and accepted it, saying, "Thanks, Uncle Hao." Chef Hao waved his hand and laughed, "Don't flatter me. I was just worried about what to serve. You've really helped me out."

Then, as if remembering something, she said, "By the way, why did you come to town today?"

"I went to the steel rolling mill to take a recruitment exam. I just thought I'd come and visit you guys and maybe help out a little at home."

Chef Hao didn't expose her thoughts, but just smiled and pointed at her: "You little rascal, this bag of fish of yours is almost equivalent to a month's salary for others, and you're even supplementing your household income, you really dare to say that."

Chu Xue laughed when she heard this.

Did you pass the exam?

"The results won't be released until after 2 p.m.

"Judging from your relaxed expression, you must have done well on the exam."

"Then let's take Uncle Hao's good advice as a sign."

Chef Hao laughed heartily: "Better late than early. We have braised pork for lunch today. I'll get you a serving in a bit."

Chu Xue did not refuse and handed over the ticket and money.

Chef Hao didn't respond: "Aren't you being stingy with Uncle Hao? The cafeteria can afford to cover an occasional meal."

Chu Xue insisted, and stuffed the money into his hand: "Give me a few more pieces of meat, that's already a favor. I can't take advantage of that. Besides, there are so many people watching, I can't let Uncle Hao be treated badly."

Chef Hao had a better impression of Chu Xue and gave her a thumbs up: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

He handed the money and tickets to the apprentice next to him: "Go get a portion of braised pork for Chuxue, and some side dishes, plus two ounces of rice."

After receiving the money, the man happily ran into the kitchen.

While getting her food, Chu Xue went to the cafeteria's finance office to collect her money. When she came out, her food had already been served.

After having a meal and chatting with Chef Hao for a while, Meimei leisurely headed to the steel rolling mill.
