Ning Xiyue did not start the shopping mode again when she went to the department store. The constant reminders in her ears made her have to start signing.

Fortunately, every opportunity to sign in was not reserved until the last moment when it was about to expire, so she could sign a few more times.

At the counter selling winter clothes, the system rang.

"Ding, I found the sign-in location, on the winter wardrobe table. Did the host sign in?"

"Sign in."

"Successfully signed in and received a winter gift package, two large cotton-padded jackets, two pairs of large cotton trousers, two pairs of cotton gloves, and two pairs of large cotton shoes, which can withstand the cold of minus 20 degrees Celsius."

Seeing this big gift package, I feel confident that I will be able to survive the winter, and I have already started to stock up on winter supplies.

I passed by a grocery store and signed up for a snack gift pack, which was a mix of ancient and modern snacks. It included snacks from this era such as chicken cakes and golden chicken biscuits, as well as modern snacks such as potato chips, spicy strips, braised nuts, etc.

The sight of the Little Prince spicy sticks immediately aroused Ning Xiyue's greed, and saliva began to secrete in her mouth. She hadn't eaten spicy sticks for a long time, and it looked quite tempting.

Well, write it down so she can come to this check-in location again and again.

Later, I checked in at the grain and oil counter and saw a large bucket of rapeseed oil, peanut oil, and sesame oil.

When I saw the counter selling cotton thread, the system rang.

"Ding, I found the cotton thread sales counter at the sign-in location. Did the host sign in?"

"Sign in."

"Successfully signed in and received a wool spree, five kilograms of cashmere yarn in four colors: blue, army green, black, and gray, and a knitting needle tool kit."

Well, the counter selling cotton threads asked her to sign out cashmere wool threads. Although they were both threads, the threads were very different, but she liked them.

Ning Xiyue recalled that when she was in college, she relied on her skills in knitting scarves quickly and well to earn her own living expenses by knitting customized scarves for school alumni who wanted to give loving scarves to their boyfriends and girlfriends in winter.

Now that she has so much wool, and winter is about to begin, she has to knit a scarf for each member of her family.

Ning Xiyue happily accepted this set of sign-in items and bought some cotton thread before leaving.

Ning Qingzhi, who was working as a toolman behind to carry things, glanced at the time on Ji Yanming's watch and reminded: "Sister, it's getting late. Let's go to a state-owned restaurant for dinner."

Ning Xiyue turned around and looked at the things they were carrying and the sign-in items in their backpacks, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go eat."

It just so happened that she had three check-in opportunities left in her bag that could be signed in anytime and anywhere. She didn't plan to sign in again. These were enough for today. It was really worth the trip to the city.

The three of them went to the state-owned hotel. It was dinner time. Although the price was expensive, there were not many people eating there.

Ning Xiyue looked for a seat, Ji Yanming was responsible for queuing up at the window to buy food, and Ning Qingzhi took all the large and small bags in his hands and carried them together.

Ning Xiyue, who was sitting in her seat, took out a folded sack from her bag and threw it away, "Brother, put them all in here, and you'll be done with just one bag."

"Okay." Ning Qingzhi smiled honestly and put all the wrapped things in the sack: "My sister is still thoughtful."

After putting the things in one by one, Ning Xiyue lifted the sack and put it on her shoulder to try it out. It was easy and convenient.

Ning Qingzhi was guarding her, fearing that Ning Xiyue would throw the sack over her shoulders and flash her waist, "Okay, okay, sister, put it down quickly. You sit down first and I'll go to the window to see if there's anything you want to eat."

Is there any food?”

Ning Xiyue put the sack at her feet and looked up at today's supply written on the small blackboard hanging on the wall.

The staple food includes steamed buns, dumplings, steamed stuffed buns and white rice. The meat dishes include braised pork, braised pork with cabbage, braised pork, roasted fish, and stir-fried dishes such as shredded potatoes.

Every dish is very good.

"Brother, everything is good. I'll have rice, and some braised pork and some braised pork. You guys can take care of the rest of the dishes. You've been shopping with me all afternoon, and I'm treating you today."

Ning Xiyue took out a handful of money and tickets from her pocket and put them into her brother's hand. Fearing that her brother would refuse, she added: "I thanked Comrade Ji for his help before and agreed to treat him to dinner. I never found the opportunity. Today, I thanked Comrade Ji for his help."

We invited them together. Next time we, brother and sister, have dinner alone, I want you to pay for it."

"Okay, you invite me this time." Ning Qingzhi held the money and tickets and smiled: "I'll go over then."

Ning Xiyue added: "Pack up a few more big meat buns and take them back. It's not easy to come here and bring some buns back to the second brother."

"I miss that kid everywhere I go." Ning Qingzhi heard the second brat mutter something in disgust.

Ning Xiyue didn't answer, but smiled stupidly at him: "Brother, just buy it."

This meat bun is of great use to her.

"Okay, you sit down, the queue is almost at Lao Ji, I'm coming over."

Ning Xiyue watched her brother hurried over, thinking about exchanging the meat buns in her backpack with her brother's meat buns after returning, so that he could eat early and improve his physical fitness.

While thinking, Ji Yanming and Ning Qingzhi came over with food.

The food in the state-owned hotel is generous in portions. Four dishes are enough for three people.

The chef at the state-owned restaurant here is quite good at cooking, and the braised pork cooked by the chef at her home is better.

The roasted white rice is also steamed very soft, and the pickles underneath are delicious and go very well with rice.

After shopping in the department store for so long, she consumed a lot. Ning Xiyue was already hungry, so she ate two large bowls of rice in one go along with the delicious food on the table. Fortunately, she had some food stamps in her pocket.

Ji Yanming put the bowl and chopsticks on the table and looked at Ning Xiyue in front of him with a smile, eating like a little squirrel, her cheeks bulging with rice, which made her feel very cute.

Next to him, Ning Qingzhi didn't know what his teammates were thinking. He was pouring the last bit of soup into a bowl to eat. After taking the last mouthful of rice, he exclaimed with satisfaction: "It's so delicious. I haven't eaten such fragrant braised pork in a long time."

.”

Ning Xiyue swallowed the food in her mouth, nodded quickly and said, "Well, me too, the food made by the master is really delicious."

Seeing that both of them had finished eating, Ji Yanming took out two pieces of toilet paper from his pocket and handed one to each of them.

"Thank you, Comrade Ji." Ning Xiyue took the toilet paper and divided it into two halves, then handed half to Ning Qingzhi.

Ning Qingzhi conveniently put the one in his hand into his pocket.

Ji Yanming laughed inwardly when he saw the tacit understanding between the two brothers and how Ning Qingzhi put the piece of paper in his pocket so naturally. He didn't know how many times the two brothers had rehearsed it.

"You're welcome. It's my turn to thank you for inviting me to dinner today. I'll do it next time. If I have a chance, I'll take you to eat roast duck. The roast duck in my hometown is delicious."

When Ning Xiyue heard about roast duck, she responded cheerfully: "Okay, I will definitely ask you to treat me to roast duck if I get the chance. I want to eat the most authentic roast duck in the capital."

"Okay." Ji Yanming's eyes slightly raised, and he must be in a happy mood.

Ning Qingzhi looked to his left at his smiling sister and at his right comrades who were in a good mood. Feeling unhappy, he interjected: "There is me, I want to eat too. When Lao Ji takes my sister to eat roast duck, he must call me.

"

"Okay, I won't miss you." But in my heart, I definitely didn't want to take you with me.

Ning Qingzhi happily lifted the snake skin on the ground: "That's pretty much it, let's go."

After leaving the gate of the state-owned hotel, Ning Xiyue took the two of them straight to the post office to send mushroom sauce to her parents, as well as a letter specially written by Ning Xiyue, telling them to eat it every day, to eat by themselves, and not to leave it behind.

.

Although she knew that no matter how unpalatable the food she sent back, her parents would definitely eat it and would not share it with others, she still wanted to remind her that the things inside were really precious and could not be copied.

She only sent one of the two bottles of mushroom sauce for the time being, and kept the remaining bottle for the Chinese New Year when she went back to give it to her personally.
