Spatial Supermarket: Period Transmigration and Marriage with a Strong Guy - Chapter 17

Chapter 17: Approach

Hearing Zhou Yi’s words, Song Xi’s face instantly turned red, but a faint sweetness rose in her heart. It was a feeling she had never had before. She did not expect this person to be a little provocative!

Song Xi picked up the noodles and ate them slowly. Her taste was a little heavy, so she did not like such light noodles very much. However, she had no choice. In this era, oil and salt were scarce. She could not eat anything with more oil or salt anywhere unless she made it herself. Even if she made it herself, she could not gather so many seasonings. However, the supermarket followed her over. She did not lack supplies. When she recovered, she would not have to treat her mouth and stomach badly.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was looking at her, Song Xi’s heart skipped a beat. Could this person have eaten a few hard cornbreads that were difficult to swallow just to save money?

Song Xi hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls and drank a few mouthfuls of soup before putting down her chopsticks. “Brother Yi, this is not a small portion of noodles. I’m full after a few mouthfuls. What should I do with so much left? It’s shameful to waste food.”

“Right? State-owned restaurants never skimp in terms of quantity.” Zhou Yi smiled and took the lunch box over, eating it in big mouthfuls.

Song Xi opened her mouth to say something, but then gave up. It seemed like this person could not even bear to eat cornbread. He could be considered rich in the village with so much savings. Why could he not even bear to eat breakfast?

Was it expensive to support her?

After Zhou Yi ate the noodles, he went to the water room to wash the lunch box and put it away. Seeing that it was still early, the two of them chatted casually. Although they had slept together for a period of time and had hugged and kissed, this serious conversation still made both of them blush at the same time. In short, this trip to the commune brought their hearts closer.

At eleven in the morning, the two of them went down to check out. This time, Song Xi did not let Zhou Yi carry her. She planned to walk slowly. Anyway, it was still early in the afternoon. No matter how slow she walked, they would not be late.

“Pretty Sister, goodbye. I’ll come and visit you the next time I come to the commune.” After checking out, Song Xi waved at Li Qingqing.

Zhou Yi cursed in his heart. His little wife’s mouth was a liar. She was clearly the prettiest, but she called someone else pretty sister, making them happy.

“You have to recover as soon as possible!” Li Qingqing chased to the door and stuffed an oil paper bag into Song Xi’s arms. She said reluctantly to Song Xi. She did not expect this young lady to get married at such a young age, but she did not even have a partner. However, her requirements for finding a partner were high. Their family background could not be bad, and they had to be good-looking. Otherwise, she would not accept it.

“Thank you, beautiful sister. We’re going home. Goodbye.” Song Xi waved at Li Qingqing. She had transmigrated to a parallel universe. It could be said that she had started her life from scratch. It was a blessing to be able to make such a friend.

“Goodbye, Song Xi.” Li Qingqing also waved at Song Xi, looking forward to seeing a healthy Song Xi next time. Her face was pale and she looked too fragile to be touched.

Song Xi felt that she and Li Qingqing had just met, so Li Qingqing would not give her anything too expensive, so she placed the oil paper bag that Li Qingqing had stuffed into her basket.

On the way to the state-owned restaurant, Zhou Yi still wanted to carry Song Xi on his back, but Song Xi refused. She had injured her head and not her leg. It was not to the extent that she could not even walk. It was just that her body was weak and she was easily tired. She could not walk for long!

Besides, Zhou Yi was still carrying dozens of kilograms. His heart ached for her, and she could not bear to add to his burden.

The State-owned Restaurant was not far from the guesthouse. It could be said that there was more than one State-owned Restaurant in the commune, so they arrived at the entrance of the State-owned Restaurant not long after they walked slowly. Perhaps it was not time for most people to get off work for dinner, so there were not many people in the State-owned Restaurant at this time. There were only a few scattered guests sitting inside.

There was no long queue at the window.

As soon as Zhou Yi and Song Xi entered the state-owned restaurant, they were noticed by the customers in the restaurant. It was mainly because Song Xi’s head was wrapped in gauze, giving off a shattered sense of beauty.

Zhou Yi helped Song Xi sit down at the dining table in the hall and took the money and tickets to the window to buy food. Song Xi could not eat greasy food for the time being, so he ordered two bowls of noodles. One bowl of shredded meat noodles for Song Xi, and plain noodles with cabbage for himself.

Song Xi sat at the table and looked at the things placed by her feet. Occasionally, she would look up at Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi was full of righteousness. It wouldn’t be bad to be with such a person, right?

In this era, state-run restaurants did not have much sense of service. The customers had to serve the food themselves. Although Song Xi had read a lot of books, she did not know the details. She only understood when she saw Zhou Yi bring back two bowls of noodles.

“Brother Yi, eat first. I’ll go get a glass of water.” Song Xi said to Zhou Yi and stood up to walk towards the window. Seeing that Zhou Yi was about to stand up and do it for her, she reached out and pressed Zhou Yi’s shoulder. “I can do it myself. Moreover, I need to train. Otherwise, if the muscles in my legs atrophy in the future, I might not be able to walk. You don’t want me to be crippled, right?!”

As he watched Song Xi walk forward, Zhou Yi wanted to say that even if she became a cripple, she was still his wife. He would not abandon her.

Song Xi came to the window, took out the money and tickets, and ordered a serving of braised pork. Perhaps they were afraid that they would not be able to cook in time during the peak period, so there were already many prepared dishes inside. Song Xi did not wait long before she received a plate full of braised pork. It had to be said that the state-owned restaurant was really not a scam. The portion was really huge and there was enough oil. The braised pork looked and smelled great. Song Xi could not help but swallow her saliva.

However, she also knew that she could only eat light food now. She could not eat anything too greasy. Otherwise, her stomach might not be able to take it. Even if she wanted to nourish herself, there had to be a gradual process.

“Brother Yi, I’ll treat you to braised pork.” Song Xi carefully held the braised pork and slowly placed it in front of Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was a little envious. “Wife…”

“Hurry up and eat. Don’t you still have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative later? Don’t waste time.” Song Xi sat back in her seat and picked up her chopsticks to eat the noodles. She did not even wipe the sweat on her forehead.

Sigh, she was already so weak after doing such a small thing. She did not know when she would be able to recover her healthy physique in the modern times.

Zhou Yi picked up a piece of braised pork and ‘washed’ it in his bowl of noodle soup. Then, he placed it in Song Xi’s bowl. “Wife, try it. It should be fine to eat a little.”

The braised pork was really very soft. She could break it with a light pick with her chopsticks. Song Xi ate the skin and lean meat, leaving the greasy fat in the middle.

In this era, people lacked money, so they especially liked fatty meat. As a modern person, she really could not accept such fatty meat, so she did not want Zhou Yi to pick up meat for her again. Otherwise, it would really be wasted by her.
