Sihe Academy

Early in the morning, when Cao Weiguo was washing his face, a prompt sounded in his mind.

"Ding! Weekly check-in successful!"

"Obtained 5 water buffaloes!"

Washing his face calmly, Cao Weiguo returned to the room in a happy mood.

"Wife, today let's go out to eat small steamed buns, and then go shopping at Wang Fujing."

After Cao Weiguo finished speaking, he went to push the "Forever" bicycle, and Song Yulan happily closed the door and followed.

The two walked out side by side and were bumped into by the First Aunt in the middle courtyard:

"Weiguo, Yulan, going out so early?"

Cao Weiguo smiled, "Morning, First Aunt, nothing to do today, going to Wang Fujing to look around!"

The First Aunt said with a smile, "Going to Wang Fujing, that's good."

"First Aunt, you go ahead and get busy."

Cao Weiguo replied and continued to push the bike out.

Qin Huairu, who was washing clothes early in the morning, looked enviously at Song Yulan, who had a rosy complexion.

Jia Zhangshi leaned out the window, looking at Cao Weiguo and his wife, cursing, "Black-hearted beast, get hit by a car and die when you go out."

Jealousy makes people unrecognizable!

Thinking that Cao Weiguo was living a prosperous life but not helping her family, Jia Zhangshi was full of resentment.

Wishing Cao Weiguo would die an unnatural death, and then move everything from the Cao house away.

"Wife, get on."

After leaving the Sihe Academy, Cao Weiguo patted the back seat of the bicycle.

"Hmm!"

Song Yulan sat on the back seat, smiling as brightly as a flower.

Cao Weiguo rode the bike, carrying Song Yulan out of the alley.

Arriving at an old restaurant with history.

In this era, the whole country implemented a planned economy, and restaurants were also state-owned.

Even if you were a rich person, if you didn't have food coupons, the restaurant wouldn't entertain you.

If you want to eat out, money alone isn't enough; you must have coupons.

Food coupons were issued in quotas; in this day and age, having enough to eat was a problem, and ordinary families only ate meat once or twice a year, let alone eating out.

Generally, eating out was for treating oneself or entertaining guests.

Like Cao Weiguo, who ate out from time to time, it was a life envied by everyone in the Sihe Academy, and it was also considered a prodigal behavior in people's hearts.

The two parked their bicycles, and after entering the restaurant, Cao Weiguo handed the food coupons to the waiter.

Ordered two steamers of small steamed buns, two bowls of wontons, a plate of side dishes...

With Cao Weiguo's culinary skills, he could make them himself at home.

But eating at home didn't have the atmosphere of eating out.

The food was quickly served to the table by the waiter, and Cao Weiguo took out the chopsticks and handed them to Song Yulan.

"Start eating!"

Song Yulan looked at the steaming small steamed buns and the large bowls of wontons, feeling a bit distressed unconsciously.

This breakfast would cost at least five or six days' worth of rations.

"These things can be made at home, how expensive it is to eat at a restaurant."

Cao Weiguo looked at the distressed Song Yulan and smiled:

"Doing it yourself is life, eating out is enjoyment, our family isn't short of money, eating out occasionally is nothing."

"Wife, eat quickly, let's go shopping after eating."

Song Yulan helplessly picked up a small steamed bun; it tasted really good.

After finishing breakfast, Song Yulan was very satisfied.

After the two left the restaurant, Song Yulan rubbed her belly, "A bit full."

"Then let's walk for a while to digest."

"Hmm."

Song Yulan responded, and the two walked the streets together.

Walking slowly, the two chatted, talking about family matters.

Shazhu, who was out cooking for others, happened to pass by, and seeing Cao Weiguo and his wife laughing and talking, a wave of sourness rose in his heart.

Everyone is a cook, why does Cao Weiguo get promoted, get rich, and marry a wife?

While he is living worse and worse, not only without a wife, but also kicked out of the kitchen, sweeping the streets with a broom. ===== CHAPTER 254 =====
