A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 116 Liu Hui comes to deliver something

Shen Jiaren carried the book and walked to the supply and marketing cooperative, got the things from Su Hongmei, and then returned to the guesthouse.

It’s not that the golden finger can’t be used, nor that Shen Jiaren doesn’t want to go to the recycling station behind the Xinhua Bookstore, nor that Shen Jiaren doesn’t want to go to the state-owned restaurant to have a few more bites of food. The main reason is that the pile of books in Shen Jiaren’s hands, although wrapped in covers, can be seen as books at a glance. There were too many stares along the way, and Shen Jiaren couldn’t bear so many people’s curious gazes, so she took the things directly back to the guesthouse.

In fact, if it was just a look of pure curiosity, it would be fine, and this thing would be ignored if you think about it. The key point is that the people in this place are very familiar with each other. After walking a few steps, someone came to ask Shen Jiaren, "Girl, where did you buy these books?"

Shen Jiaren replied, "I bought it at Xinhua Bookstore."

“It must have cost a lot of money.”

"It's okay, I buy it the same way as others." Then the other party heard what Shen Jiaren said, curled his lips and left.

Otherwise

"Girl, can you give me a few of your books?"

"I'm sorry, I can't tell them apart. They're all one set."

"What's the use of intellectuals in this era? They should sweep the streets and be sent to the cowshed. Give me a few books and I'll go back to paste them on the walls."

Shen Jiaren ignored him and walked forward. Then she heard the old lady behind her say "Pah" and added, "What the hell is this? I'll report you sooner or later."

When Shen Jiaren saw the two people she met on the road, she dared not stay any longer and went straight back to the guesthouse.

Shen Jiaren felt relieved only after she sat on the bed in the guesthouse. After all, no one could be sure what would happen on the road.

After a busy morning, Shen Jiaren was really tired and hungry. After putting the book on the table in the guesthouse room, Shen Jiaren went into the manor, washed up and prepared to eat the hot pot that she had not finished yesterday.

By the time Shen Jiaren finished washing up, changed into her pajamas and walked into the kitchen, she had already thought about what to eat.

Since we had snail noodle hotpot yesterday, let’s cook the snail noodle hotpot and spicy hotpot together today.

Shen Jiaren poured half of the snail noodle hotpot into the casserole. She took out some meat, various meatballs and vegetables from the refrigerator, and took out one or two of them, and put them into the soup of the leftover snail noodle hotpot from yesterday. Then she cooked some of her favorite thin noodles and waited for the pot to boil.

After the pot boiled, Shen Jiaren stirred it slowly while watching the soup in the pot anxiously to see if it would overflow. After boiling three or four times, the aroma of the noodles and the snail noodle soup became stronger and stronger. Shen Jiaren turned off the fire, stood next to the stove with a small bowl and started eating the casserole.

Shen Jiaren ate while standing for a while, and felt that although she could eat more while standing, it affected her performance, so she moved a stool and sat next to the stove, then took out a bottle of carbonated drink from the refrigerator and started eating and drinking.

Shen Jiaren believes that the simplest happiness in life is eating and drinking.

There is no upper limit or lower limit, as long as you want, you can always get this happiness easily.

When Shen Jiaren put down her chopsticks and burped with a carbonic acid smell, she forced herself to stand up and walked a few steps to the main room of the courtyard. Shen Jiaren and Ge You were lying on the sofa.

It's really because I couldn't control myself today and ate a little too much. I felt that if I eat one more vegetable, Shen Jiaren would be so full that she would vomit.

As Shen Jiaren lay on the sofa, she was thinking, is it okay to be so decadent?

But then I thought, I'm already so happy, it doesn't matter if I'm happier. I just put the pillow flat and slept on the sofa instead of Ge You's pose.

As for the eating utensils, just put them aside for now and clean up the dishes after you wake up.

After all, the meal is definitely finished, and all that’s left is the pots, pans, and utensils to wash.

As Shen Jiaren was thinking, she fell asleep.

When Shen Jiaren woke up, the sunlight outside had already shone on her feet.

When Shen Jiaren got up and saw that it was already afternoon, she didn't waste any more time and went straight to the kitchen to clean up the dishes from lunch. Then she took a shower, changed her clothes, and left the manor.

Shen Jiaren left the manor and saw that the clothes she was wearing were not suitable, so she went back to the manor and changed into the clothes she wore here.

Shen Jiaren changed her clothes and sat at the table. She was just about to open the books she bought today to see what the information was and familiarize herself with them when she heard someone knocking at the door.

Shen Jiaren stood up from the chair and looked around the room to see if there was anything out of place. After making sure there was nothing out of place, Shen Jiaren walked behind the door and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Liu Hui."

Shen Jiaren thought the voice didn't sound like Liu Hui's, so she asked,

"Liu Hui? How is my cat at your house?"

Liu Hui at the doorway raised his eyes when he heard Shen Jiaren's question. Not bad, he was still quite alert. "Cat? I don't have a cat like yours. I only have a pure black dog that is a descendant of a hound. His name is Duoduo?"

When Shen Jiaren heard this answer, although she was curious why Liu Hui's voice became like this, she still opened the door. After all, she knew that Duoduo was the descendant of a hound. Only Liu Hui knew it because he was caught by Liu Hui.

After opening the door, Shen Jiaren looked at the unshaven man at the door and said, "Liu Hui?"

"it's me."

Shen Jiaren stood at the door and looked around for a few times. After confirming that the person at the door was Liu Hui, she stepped aside and let Liu Hui enter the room.

"How did you become like this?"

"I went out with the police to stake out."

"Then what are you doing?"

"It's mainly to deliver things and messages to you."

"Send something? Send a message? What thing? What message? Can it make you so anxious?"

"Nothing much. We ate cucumbers and tomatoes from the yard, and some meat and vegetable sauces that I fried for you to eat with the steamed buns.

As for the news, I am here to tell you that this is a gang crime, and the consequences are quite large. You probably won’t be able to go back for a while, so you have to be prepared for a protracted war here.”

Shen Jiaren thought it was nothing when she heard about bringing food, but when she heard the news again, what did it mean to be ready for a long battle? She grabbed Liu Hui's clothes and asked him,

"A short while? A protracted war? What kind of protracted war is this? The protracted war at that time lasted for seven or eight years, or even ten years. You can't expect me to live here for seven or eight years as well, right?"

Liu Hui looked at Shen Jiaren pulling at the corner of his clothes with all her might, and then saw the exasperated expression on his face. He grinned twice under his beard and said, "It won't take that long, maybe ten days or half a month, or at most one or two months."

When Shen Jiaren heard this, she thought, ten days or half a month, or at most one or two months, it’s not bad, much better than the ten-year war of resistance.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren let go of the corner of Liu Hui's clothes and said nothing more.

Seeing Shen Jiaren loosen the corner of her clothes, Liu Hui turned around and continued walking forward.

Walking to the table, he looked at the high school materials spread out on the table and asked, "Were you studying just now?"

"No, I just opened it to see what was inside. As soon as I opened it, you knocked on the door."

"Then you clean up and I'll put down what I have."

Only then did Shen Jiaren notice that Liu Hui's hands were full of things, so she hurried to the table, picked up the books on the table and put them on the bedside table.

Seeing this, Liu Hui picked up everything in his hands and placed them on the table.

Only then did Shen Jiaren intuitively feel how much Liu Hui meant by bringing some dishes and some sauces.

"Brother, you have so many things, why don't you use a backpack? Besides, can I eat all of them?"

Liu Hui smiled and said, "It looks like a lot, but actually there are very few things. I also brought you some sauces, so you can dip cucumbers and tomatoes in the sauces when the time comes."

Liu Hui was taking things out as he spoke. Shen Jiaren looked at the things Liu Hui was taking out. In addition to cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, green onions, and some green vegetables, the most important thing was, there was eggplant.

Shen Jiaren looked at the eggplant Liu Hui took out and couldn't help but ask Liu Hui while holding it in her hand, "Brother, I can understand you taking cucumbers and tomatoes, and I can also understand taking green vegetables, but what's the meaning of this eggplant? Can it be eaten raw?"

"This eggplant can be eaten raw. It's very sweet. You can dip it in sauce and eat it with steamed buns or vegetables. It's really delicious."

After Shen Jiaren heard this, three question marks popped up above her head. This was something she had never seen before.

After Liu Hui took out all the vegetables in the bag, he started to take out the sauce from another bag. Shen Jiaren watched Liu Hui constantly taking out various bottles of different sizes, back and forth. Shen Jiaren counted and found that he took out about thirteen bottles of different sizes.
