1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 180 Train Meal

The Baihua Courtyard in Beijing.

Su Guilan and his wife were very busy. Little October, who had not seen Luo Tao early in the morning, was crying and looking for his father.

If he couldn't coax him well, he splashed it in the small courtyard, his clothes were covered in mud, and it didn't work for food or play.

Luo Shaoyi had no choice but to ask for leave again, ride his bicycle around the capital with little October, and lie to him that he would take him to find his father.

Well, this method works really well, but if you keep using this method, it won’t work all the time. If you do it once, twice, and the third time, the little guy won’t buy it anymore. The old couple are trying different tricks to coax him. Not only do they Even Zhu's father and Zhu's mother ran this way without anything going on.

Sometimes even Mr. Jin and Lao Zhangtou would come to play with him, as did Mr. Zhang. When there were more people around, the little guy gradually forgot about his sad things, and fell into a world of sweet talk, eating, drinking and having fun every day.

What happened in the past two days at Baihua Courtyard in Beijing had nothing to do with Luo Tao, who was still sleeping on the train.

I don't know why I was so energetic last night, and I actually stayed up until past twelve o'clock.

It is really uncommon for people living in this era. Staying up late is not a good thing nowadays. Staying up late every New Year's Eve is definitely a torture.

Luo Tao has never slept so late since he was reborn. Now he has developed a good work and rest habit, going to bed early and getting up early.

For the sake of his own health in this life, Luo Tao is also trying hard to restrain himself from smoking and drinking less, and he also wants to get rid of the sensuality and feasting nightlife of his previous life.

"Peanuts and melon seeds, bread and steam, come on, give way, please, please put your legs back."

The middle-aged woman spoke with a Beijing accent and was well dressed, pushing a trolley through the aisles.

Luo Tao was awakened by her voice and became drowsy. He wiped his face and saw that the time was only about 40:[-].

When I looked at Mr. Wang's bed, there was no one there, and I didn't know where he had been this morning.

I stood up and looked down the aisle, and saw that this eldest lady had just entered the car. So I sat back down, opened my own water glass, rinsed my mouth, then opened the window and vomited out.

After cleaning up my face, I opened the big bag I was carrying. I wanted to take out my lunch box and go to the dining car to see if there was breakfast.

As soon as I took out the box and it was gone, I felt nervous. I quickly looked through the small bag that contained my money, opened it and counted ten bundles. I saw that 2 yuan was still there, and I felt relieved.

If this was stolen, he would have created a new era of ten-thousand-yuan households.

While Luo Tao was thinking hard about where to go with the rice bowl, the eldest sister had already arrived with a cart, looking helpless and without a smile.

"Sister, how do you sell this thing?" Luo Tao asked her with a smile.

This eldest sister really made Luo Tao feel the service attitude of this era again.

"Whether you want to buy it or not, don't waste time here. There will be others behind you. Come on, give way."

This is the attitude of others, if you don’t like it, don’t eat it.

"Don't go, sister. I didn't say I wouldn't buy it. It's only five yuan."

The domineering attitude of Luo Tao, a local tycoon, immediately shocked the eldest sister. The car's brakes also worked well and it pulled her back again.

"What do you want to order?" Seeing the eldest sister's smile, it's better not to smile.

Luo Tao counted five yuan and handed it to her, "Here are four bottles of Arctic Ocean, and you can take some of the rest as you see fit."

Arctic Ocean is the most popular drink in this era, and has been remembered by generations. This year it will also appear on the stage of the first Spring Festival Gala.

Now a bottle of Arctic Ocean is only [-] cents more expensive and only [-] cents more.

"Five bottles of this soda! What do you think?"

Luo Tao didn't have much objection, "Okay."

I took five bottles of Arctic Ocean, one piece each of peanuts and melon seeds, and two yuan for bread. The eldest sister liked this kind of money very much, because if she sold more, she would get more black income.

The eldest sister pushed the cart away. Luo Tao put the things away and opened a bottle. "Bah", this sound was really comfortable. "Hey, you are comfortable enough, no, drink this soda early in the morning!" Wang Lao didn't know where he came from, so he said this.

Luo Tao was startled, but the delicious soda spilled all over his neck, and he quickly wiped it with his hand.

"Mr. Wang, what are you doing here so early in the morning? I thought I would go find you after drinking this water?"

Mr. Wang glanced at Luo Tao, which meant: I don't believe you will come to me.

He took out a lunch box from behind and said, "Now, eat it while it's hot."

"Hey, old man, you're so kind to me! I'm flattered. You've worked hard. Please sit down and rest for a while."

Luo Tao was so happy when he took the lunch box!Together with the old man, we went to the dining car to buy food.

"This is the only mouth you have left. If your lunch box is gone, you won't know how to look for it." Mr. Wang said with a smile.

"Hehe! I guess it was you who took it, so you can eat melon seeds."

"I don't want to eat this now, please hurry up and eat!"

Luo Tao opened the woven bag outside, took out the lunch box, and opened it to see what a good guy it was. It was definitely a wealthy train meal, with a few pieces of braised fish, half an egg, a few pieces of ham, and vegetables. "Mr. Wang, this is too much," he said. It’s a waste of money, do you always eat it?”

"I've eaten at the dining car, and I know it's good to spend money. When I get there, I'll just feed you, a wealthy family." Mr. Wang wiped his body and sat on the bed.

"When you get to the place, you can pick whatever you want. I have all the national food stamps in my bag. I'm afraid you won't be able to finish them all."

Luo Tao whispered about his family background. This matter should not be made loudly, as it might be lost if he is not careful.

"Hahaha, then I will make your boy poor."

"..."

Luo Tao ate the luxurious set meal on the train in this era, the price of this one should be around [-] yuan, the money is not worth mentioning to Luo Tao, but it is money to Wang Lao.

Apart from his meager salary from Mr. Yuan, he has no other source of income.Apart from daily necessities, he also needs to buy pens, ink, paper, inkstones, books, and from time to time Mr. Wang will also buy some hardwood furniture.

Lao Ma can buy the same piece of furniture for five yuan, but Mr. Wang can definitely give it more than ten yuan.

Luo Tao also wanted to help them, but it was really difficult to do these things.

Mr. Wang ate in advance at the dining car and then came back. Luo Tao guessed that the old man had definitely eaten the cheapest rice bowl for three cents.

Thinking of this, Luo Tao took a few mouthfuls of rice and chewed it, and heard Mr. Wang's hearty laughter.

"Wait a minute, this train meal is pretty good too."

Yes, Mr. Wang is right. You don’t need food stamps to eat on the train, but you have to buy meal stamps.The chefs who cook are not ordinary people. Without qualifications, they really can't do it here.

"It's delicious." He said and picked up the unfinished Arctic Ocean soda. He didn't feel angry and drank it in one go.

"belch!"

This burp almost made Luo Tao go away. It came so suddenly, and his chest became clogged. He rubbed his hand up and down a few times before he regained his breath.

The two people looked at each other and laughed.

After the CD, Luo Tao took the lunch box to clean it.

When I came back, my father and I looked at the mountains and mountains outside the window and chatted about strange things and anecdotes, spending this boring time.
