Chapter 70 The steamed buns are not delicious



Luo Cheng didn't expect that Uncle Wu was so good. In fact, rural people in towns and villages couldn't afford this kind of steamed buns. It was very good to have wild vegetable dumplings. But now that everyone eats in the public canteen, at least everyone will eat well at first.

In rural areas, people don’t visit each other to eat, and they don’t ask whether you have eaten or not. We are all short of food, and it is not good to go to other people’s homes to chat during meals. Luo Cheng didn't expect that there would be people in this city who took the initiative to care about his meal.

But after thinking about it, I forgot about it. I still have some food stamps and will officially go to work tomorrow. The sub-district office said they could get the household registration and some books for him in two days, so he wouldn't have to rely on other people's food.

Thanks to Uncle Wu for his kindness, Luo Cheng wandered out again to buy steamed buns to eat.

Uncle Wu watched Luo Cheng leave, and smiled inwardly when he saw him leaving the yard. If this kid really went to his house to eat steamed buns, he would play a double act with his family when he got back, saying that he didn't prepare anything and his grandson wouldn't even have enough to eat. Then he said that he didn't think it through well, and he didn't believe that Luo Cheng would be so thick-skinned that he wouldn't leave.

Now I'm just asking for a favor without giving anything, which is pretty good.

Luo Cheng bought steamed buns outside and ate them in the alley. There were many children in the alley, so he liked to watch the children being greedy. The steamed buns these days are so big that you have to pay food stamps when buying them. A steamed bun that comes in two ounces refers to the two ounces of flour used. When steamed, it takes more than two ounces.

He squatted down and ate while watching the children play. After a while, several children stood next to Luo Cheng and watched him eat the steamed buns. Luo Cheng knew that they wanted to eat, but he liked to see them trying to eat but not being able to eat.

Some ignorant children ran back and asked the adults for steamed buns. What kind of family did they think they lived in the urban area and could eat white-flour steamed buns whenever they wanted?

"Uncle, the steamed buns are delicious."

"Unappetizing."

After being surrounded by children for a while, one child finally couldn't help but speak, and she was still a girl. Asked if the steamed buns were delicious, Luo Cheng immediately took a big bite and said they were not delicious. He understands the thoughts of children and does not follow their ideas.

"You're lying. White flour steamed buns are delicious. I've eaten them before."

Before the little girl could speak, other children retorted, but Luo Cheng lied to the children, what's wrong. No matter what the child said, he just said it didn’t taste good. In this way, several children started quarreling with him.

Luo Cheng became interested when he saw a few of them barking fiercely. The louder the scream, the more interesting it is to get angry. Luo Cheng called the little girl over who initially asked if the steamed bun was delicious, brought out a small piece of steamed bun, and asked her to give it to her if she said the steamed bun was not delicious.

Then he saw the little girl eating a small piece of steamed bun deliciously, and stood on Luo Cheng's side and said that the steamed bun was not delicious.

"Yaya, you are lying. You just ate his steamed buns and listened to his words before saying they were not delicious."

Children are so funny, and provoking them is the most interesting thing. In fact, the more aggressive they yell, the more they want to eat. Luo Cheng was almost done eating, so he deliberately called two children over. They also said the steamed buns were delicious at first, but they didn't speak loudly and didn't argue with the children.

Cut half a steamed bun into several small pieces and still give them to eat, but it has to be said that it won't taste good. And at first, the little girl named Yaya took another small piece, and then a few duplicitous children appeared. After eating, they told others that it was not delicious.

In the end, two people screamed fiercely and cried, not because they were refuted that steamed buns are delicious. But the people who followed them in saying that the steamed buns were delicious rebelled and even ate the steamed buns, but they did not.

Children in the city will cry even if they are not teased. Unlike children in the countryside, they have more backbone. Ermao Greedy Luo Cheng knows how to exchange things for things. If he really doesn't have anything, he can still play with Luo Cheng with birds and birds, and then get something.

Soon, most of the children in the alley went back to eat, and the sky began to get dark.

In the evening, the courtyard of the courtyard was actually very lively. After dinner, there were many people sitting at the door to enjoy the cool air and fanning their cattail fans. The sink in the middle is where people wash dishes and things from time to time, and the washbasin is filled with water into the house.

Luo Cheng also cleaned a stool and sat at the door to enjoy the air. Not to mention, he also saw a pretty good-looking girl passing by from the front yard to the backyard. I don't know which family the girl is from, but Luo Cheng has no fluctuations in his heart. Although there are not many good-looking women in any era, they can always be seen, and they can't get over it.

In the evening, you can see children as young as six or seven years old, not just men and women, but basically bare buttocks, filling a bucket of water with a piece of cloth, wiping themselves and taking a bath. If it is smaller, it will basically need help from an adult to wash it. As for adults, there is nothing to be ashamed of, old men, just wear shorts and wash directly by the wall of the yard.

As for women, Luo Cheng couldn't see how to wash them. Anyway, if his wife is here, she will definitely not let others see her taking a shower.

Luo Cheng was not polite. He took the newly purchased wooden bucket and took a bucket of water. Then he squatted in the corner outside the kitchen and washed himself. It was very comfortable to wash in cold water on a hot day. After washing, I followed other people's example and sat at the door to continue enjoying the coolness. Many neighbors would take the initiative to chat with Luo Cheng when they saw him sitting at the door.

It was a pity for Luo Cheng to hear that he had married a wife in his hometown town. If he doesn't have a wife, you can help him introduce one in the city. Luo Chengcai was nineteen and a worker in a machinery factory. It was easy to find a wife in the city. The daughter-in-law in the town still has a rural household registration. What else can she do besides giving birth and doing housework.

In the city, it is difficult for rural people to find even temporary jobs. No one wants to help others wash clothes. They would rather be an old lady in the city than in the countryside.

When his neighbor said this, Luo Cheng felt the same way. He should tell his wife Zhao Qian this so that she could serve him better. When it comes to helping her give birth to cubs, she needs to be more proactive, and don't always take the initiative on her own.

When I had just finished taking a shower, I felt comfortable sitting in the doorway blowing the air, but after a while, the mosquitoes came again. People have cattail fans, which can shake the wind and drive away mosquitoes. Luo Cheng didn't have that. It cost two cents a piece. He saw it at the supply and marketing cooperative today and forgot to buy it.

After returning home, Luo Cheng took out a gourd filled with toilet water. The mouth of the gourd was specially equipped with a wooden bolt. After opening it, put some on your hands and then apply it on your body. The area where it has been applied will feel cool when the wind blows.

It's amazing. Once I apply this toilet water, the mosquitoes disappear. But I don’t know how durable it is. Wait a little later, turn off the lights in the room, and use a mosquito killer. It was dark and no one could see the smoke from his house.

In this way, Luo Cheng sat on a stool and leaned against the wall of his house, watching the people in the yard change from lively to gradually sparse, and then to some young people who went inside to go to bed early because they had to go to work tomorrow. There were only a few older ones left, enjoying the cool weather leisurely. Luo Cheng also felt that the room was not so hot anymore, so he lit a mosquito killer with a match and stayed outside for another ten minutes before going inside to sleep.
