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

Chapter 4 Food is too expensive

In later generations, Luo Cheng's popularity with women was not good, he had pimples in high school, he was not as tall as he is now, and his grades were average.

Later, he went to a technical school, and his major was related to driving and repairing. Not to mention that he was in the class, there was not a single girl in this industry in the entire school.So Luo Cheng has always been eager to communicate with the opposite sex, and now although the two girls look very ordinary, Luo Cheng is still more enthusiastic.

The older one is called Qin Xiaoli, and the little girl is her cousin, named Qin Lan.Qin Lan's family lived in a village near Longyang Town, so Qin Xiaoli hoped that Luo Cheng could help escort Qin Lan home.But she didn't go back with her. She lived in the city and was married from the village before.

To be honest, Qin Xiaoli's request made Luo Cheng a little embarrassed. The main reason is that there is no means of transportation these days, so you have to walk on two legs to send someone off.But a man always has that damn self-esteem, and he agreed to Qin Xiaoli's eager request.

The car was not full, and the car started after waiting for a long time beyond the departure time.Luo Cheng didn't know the situation, and didn't know what the [-] specifically meant.This means driving from urban areas to counties and towns. If you come back, there will be fewer people by car.

Not everyone can afford the fare of a few cents, especially those in rural areas.That's enough money to buy a few catties of cornmeal.

When the car set off, Qin Xiaoli explained a lot to Qin Lan, the most important thing was the small backpack on her body.Qian urged her to pay attention, which also aroused Luo Cheng's curiosity.

"Qin Lan~~Comrade, what is in your bag? It's so mysterious."

In the car, Luo Cheng was really bored. Seeing Qin Lan holding his backpack tightly in the car, he couldn't help asking. Of course, the special terms of this era were also added, and they were all followed by the title. Comrade word.

A question made Qin Lan tense up instantly.If it wasn't for Luo Cheng's military uniform and not looking like a bad guy, she would have taken precautions.Qin Xiaoli asked Luo Cheng for help because Luo Cheng was wearing a retired military uniform, otherwise how could such an escort job be easily handed over to a stranger.

Qin Lan looked at the people in the car and saw that no one was paying attention, so she felt relieved about Luo Cheng.The other party is a soldier, if he wants to have bad thoughts about the things on his body, then no one will be able to protect them.So he leaned on Luo Cheng in a low voice and pulled the backpack open.

"It's cornmeal. My cousin donated it to my family."

Stick noodles, Luo Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, he reached out to get a little bit from Qin Lan's bag and watched it in his hand.This is the legendary stick noodles. Although later generations also have stick noodles, it can be said that the stick noodles that follow the times are completely different.

It is very rough, with large particles, and there are many impurities in it, and the color is not as thin and yellow as the stick noodles of later generations.The stick noodles of later generations are high-grade miscellaneous grains, which are more expensive than flour.

"This food is delicious."

Luo Cheng asked, he had never eaten this food, so he was very curious, and Qin Lan naturally nodded seriously.This is life-saving food, how could the food not taste good.

It takes about two hours by car, but in later generations this distance can be reached in about an hour at most.But in this era, the car itself is one aspect, and the road is difficult to walk on the other hand.

The car stopped at an intersection on the dirt road, Luo Cheng and four or five other passengers got out of the car.But this intersection actually leads to several places, and besides Luo Cheng and Qin Lan, there is no one else going to Longyang Town.

He didn't have a mobile phone or a watch to check the time, but Luo Cheng was hungry, and when he got off the train, it was actually almost ten o'clock in the morning, and there was a wall clock at the train station.Calculate the time roughly, twelve o'clock must have passed.

Fortunately, the season has also changed. Originally, the season in Luo Cheng's time was late May, which was the graduation time of the school.But now it has changed directly to autumn, and it has become November, the season for retiring from the army.This is very good for Luo Cheng. If it was the previous season, carrying a quilt and carrying things at noon at this point, it would be summer, and it would be too hot to die.

But in the season of November, it is relatively hot at noon.It was hot and hungry, and Luo Cheng couldn't take it long after getting out of the car.The new sign-in can only be obtained again at 12 o'clock in the evening, and there is no food in the system at all, and there is no shortage of drinks, and there is still water in the kettle on his body.

I'm hungry, so I can't eat melon seeds. A pack of peanuts would be nice, I hope it's spiced.Or salty, creamy and sweet, Luo Cheng is not used to it.The other thing is instant noodles. If there is no hot water, if you eat it dry, you haven't eaten it like this for many years.

But no matter what, eating instant noodles dry is better than eating a bit hard steamed buns.

"Comrade Qin Lan, are you hungry? Do you have something to eat?"

Luo Cheng stopped, took a sip of water from the jug directly to his mouth and asked.

Qin Lan was very embarrassed when she asked a question. There is no one who is not hungry these days, and she doesn't know how long she hasn't eaten.And besides the stick noodles in her backpack, she didn't have anything else to eat at all.On the way here, I thought about it. At most, I will not eat anything at noon. When I get home at night, I can eat stick batter.

But when they agreed to escort her home, it was fine if the other party didn't ask, but Qin Lan really didn't have anything for Luo Cheng to eat.

Shaking her head helplessly, and Qin Lan was still looking at Luo Cheng's kettle, so she couldn't help but said.

"Comrade Luo Cheng, I~ I have nothing to eat, can you give me a sip of your water."

Look carefully, Qin Lan is only very thin, a little skinny, and her skin is sallow, but she is not ugly.Luo Cheng used his mouth to drink from the kettle, and Luo Cheng felt a little embarrassed if he gave her another drink.

"Come on, I have a bottle of water here, here it is for you, and I have a box of noodles here, let's each have half of it. Have something to eat before we go on the road."

Luo Cheng reached into his backpack and took out the unlabeled mineral water, and then took out the instant noodles.As for the steamed buns, they are too low, and it doesn't feel good to take them out to entertain people.

That's fine grain, Qin Lan shook her head hastily when she heard it.It was a great kindness to let the other party send me back to the village after meeting by chance. How could it be possible to eat the other party's food, and it was fine grains such as noodles.

And this water is in a plastic bottle. This bottle is so beautiful, I have never seen it before.So Qin Lan didn't even dare to drink water.

"Hold it, your mouth is dry, I'll help you open the water."

Seeing that Qin Lan didn't take the water, Luo Cheng thought she was being polite, so he turned on the water on his own initiative, and then the instant noodles were packed in barrels. After all, it was a train set meal, and the bagged ones had to be soaked in a bowl.

The noodles in the barrel are still three-five-shaped products, without the date of origin and shelf life. Luo Cheng directly tore off a layer of paper cover packaging on the noodles, then took out the noodles inside, and pulled them with his hands. There were a lot of debris in two halves. The noodles fell into the box, and a little bit fell on the ground by accident.

When Qin Lan saw the small flour particles falling on the ground, she was so distressed that she felt it was difficult to breathe. How could she be so careless? It was food, grain, fine grain.

"I'll eat it in a box for you, my man, just hold it with your hands."

"No~ no need, really no need, I'm not hungry~~."

Qin Lan was a little scared, this is fine grain, I really dare not take it.But he said he wasn't hungry, but his stomach made a gurgling sound because he felt the food.

In the end, Luo Cheng smiled and forced it to her.Then he drank water and chewed the instant noodles in his hand.

"Is this the way to eat without cooking?"

Qin Lan took the noodles and didn't eat them right away. She had eaten noodles before and they were delicious, but she had never eaten noodles like this.
