Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 749

Since Gou Dan and his mother didn’t have much food when they left, they didn’t eat much these two days. At this moment, their stomachs ached with hunger.

Although Gao Shun didn’t want to waste money buying food, there was nothing she could do. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said, "Then let’s go buy some steamed buns."

After making their decision, the two went to the state-run restaurant. Compared with the restaurants in the county town, the restaurants in the city are much larger.

Standing in front of the counter, Gao Shun and Gou Dan were shocked by the price. Although there are more types of food than in the county, the price is much more expensive.

Seeing that the two of them had been standing there for a long time without ordering anything, the staff member said unhappily, "If you don’t have money, don’t bother others by standing here."

Hearing this, Gou Dan said angrily, "Who said we have no money? We want two bowls of soup dumplings!"

After he finished speaking, the staff member raised his eyebrows and said, "That’s all?"

Hearing the disdain in his voice, Gou Dan became even more angry and said again, "A bowl of braised pork and a plate of stir-fried vegetables!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff said with a smile, "Two bowls of soup dumplings are 1 yuan and 80 cents, a bowl of braised pork is 3 yuan and 30 cents, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables is 2 yuan. A total of 7 yuan and 10 cents, and 4 food stamps."

Gao Shun was surprised when she heard the price and asked, "Comrade, why do we need to pay with so many food stamps?"

Since there was a lot of food ordered, the staff smiled and explained, "Comrade, there is a shortage of food everywhere. So, you need to spend more coupons to buy food."

Gou Dan was hungry and impatient with his mother’s questions. He looked at her and said, "Mother, why are you asking so many questions? Just pay him!"

Gao Shun was embarrassed when her son scolded her in public, but she was also used to doting on her son. So, even though she was angry, she only glanced at him, took out the pouch, and paid for the meal.

Although they have money, they have limited coupons, especially food stamps. She planned to buy a bowl of soup dumplings and then go to the black market to buy more food. She didn’t expect her son to be provoked so easily and order expensive food thoughtlessly.

Since they were unfamiliar with this place, she didn’t dare to make a fuss for fear that they would be arrested by the police officers. After all, they have no travel documents and are coming here illegally.

After a while, the meal was ready. After taking their meal, the two walked to the table in the corner and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, Gou Dan stuffed piece after piece of braised pork into his mouth without even looking at his mother. Gao Shun was heartbroken when he saw his son eating like a hungry ghost, and poured a glass of water for his son.
