C262 Roadside Fast-food Restaurant
The two of them went back to Long Xiang's house. This time, Kang Ying obediently ordered some Rice Noodle Roll, Crystal Shrimp Dumplings and a few other light dishes. Even the glutinous rice chicken didn't dare to eat anymore.
Glutinous rice chicken is made of glutinous rice, not easy to digest, relatively easy to cause a feeling of fullness, now eat it, Kang Ying is afraid of the road again stomach pain.
Shi Jiangyuan didn't notice Kang Ying's strangeness. Instead, he ordered a plate of bitter melon steamed meat. Kang Ying found it funny that he was addicted to bitter melon.
After breakfast, Shi Jiangyuan took Kang Ying to buy her luggage. After dinner yesterday, the two of them were in a hurry to get back to the hotel and forgot to buy their luggage.
Fortunately, there was a department store nearby. They bought a twenty-eight-inch suitcase for one hundred and twenty yuan, which seemed to be of good quality.
With this suitcase, everything Kang Yingxin bought could be put in. There were also some that were inconvenient to store in the luggage bag.
Shi Jiangyuan didn't have much luggage. He only carried a backpack with a luggage bag in his hand and helped Kang Ying carry her luggage bag over. After the two of them paid the bill and checked out, they went to the factory where the goods were delivered and waited for the truck to load the goods.
Manager Wu completed the order as agreed. Seeing that Kang Ying had arrived, he said that the other 8,000 pieces would be sent over in a divided period of time. At that time, they would have to go on a carpool route, which would save a lot of freight. Kang Ying expressed her satisfaction.
Following the scheduled arrival of the large truck in the factory area, the 2,000 goods were filled up at random, and then they went to several other factories that had been agreed upon. After packing, signing the contracts and paying the bills, they were finally able to set off for home.
Kang Ying and Shi Jiangyuan got on the truck and sat at the back of the driver's seat. This time, they didn't need to take a long-distance sleeper bus to go home with the truck.
The driver's seat of the large truck wasn't as narrow as he thought, and could still open his arms and legs. Because this trip was a long one, there were two drivers, and the two of them would take turns driving, twenty-four hours a day. This way, they would be able to reach Lu County tomorrow morning.
Kang Ying and Shi Jiangyuan sat in the back seat. After getting on the car, because she wasn't too familiar with the two drivers, Kang Ying leaned back in her seat and fell asleep on her back. Last night, her stomach ache had tortured her for half the night, but now that things were settled, she felt sleepy again.
Seeing Kang Ying was sleeping, Shi Jiangyuan took out the thin blanket from his luggage bag and covered her with it.
In a daze, Kang Ying heard the driver in front ask Shi Jiangyuan: "Are you two husband and wife?"
"No, we're just partners in business," Shi Jiangyuan said.
Kang Ying thought to herself, this driver is such a gossiper, isn't he too boring? He even asked such a question?
"I thought you two were husband and wife, and that you were pretty good-looking, and that you were pretty handsome, too. The two of you are so compatible, I thought you two were a couple seeing that you took care of her so carefully!" The driver continued gossiping, enjoying the show.
Shi Jiangyuan chuckled and didn't say anything.
Kang Ying tightly wrapped herself in the blanket and immediately fell asleep due to a wave of warmth. After that, she didn't hear what the driver and Shi Jiangyuan had said.
The next time she opened her eyes, she was awakened by the driver's brake. Shi Jiangyuan saw that she had woken up and said:
"We're at the first service. They went to the bathroom."
Kang Ying rubbed her eyes, lifted the blanket and got off the car. She found that this was a gas station and many cars were parked here to fill up the gas.
The gas station staff were very enthusiastic. When they saw them get off the car, they immediately served them tea in paper cups.
When Kang Ying came out of the washroom and saw the tea, she took a cup and poured hot tea into her stomach. She immediately felt refreshed and did not want to be too comfortable.
Kang Ying stretched her body, stretched her body that had been curled up for several hours, and asked the waiter for another cup of tea.
Seeing that, Shi Jiangyuan said to her: "I've already filled up the hot water and brewed the tea. You can drink it later when you get on the car, don't drink too much at once."
Kang Ying had already experienced Shi Jiangyuan's meticulousness. After hearing what he said, she thought it would be inappropriate to drink so much from a stomach injury, so she said, "Ok."
If it wasn't because of Shi Jiangyuan's words, she would have had the thought of drinking a whole stomach of tea to save herself a bit of thirst.
After getting on the truck, they continued to move forward. The sound of the truck's engine rumbling made Kang Ying's head hurt. After a while, she slowly got used to it.
It was almost noon when the driver drove to a restaurant on the side of the road.
Along the way, there were many restaurants on the roadside that attracted passengers.
As the van slowly approached the hotel, a waiter in a white coat came up and waved them to park in a certain spot.
Kang Ying saw that this was an ordinary restaurant, but it was divided into the front and back. The driver was led to the back by the staff to eat. Kang Ying and Shi Jiangyuan ate in front as passengers.
But since it's not a package like the long-distance bus, they can order their own dishes.
Kang Ying absolutely did not dare to order vegetables. She knew that the restaurants on the side of the road were not for the returning customers, so their hygiene standards were worrying. Who knew if they had washed the vegetables? Even if it was washed, it would only be for a short while.
Shi Jiangyuan followed her. Luckily, the quality of the white rice here was better than the restaurant the bus took them to before, at least it didn't have a musty taste.
Kang Ying carefully avoided the sanitary minefield, barely filling her stomach.
What they were eating now was obviously different from the Long Xiang's place that they had earlier, but this was the life of a businessman in this era. They could eat at the roadside stalls, and they could also eat five-star hotels.
After Kang Ying finished eating, she went to the sink near the backyard and washed her mouth. Kang Ying ate, then went to the sink near the backyard.
Kang Ying thought they were going to the bathroom, so she didn't keep looking at them. But after about ten minutes, the two drivers still hadn't come out.
Kang Ying muttered to herself as she thought about how she could go to the bathroom for so long.
"I saw those two drivers just now. They seemed to have eaten their fill and went to the backyard. I wonder if they went to the washroom. Do you want to go take a look? There shouldn't be any problems, right?"
Shi Jiangyuan said, "Let's wait a while longer. We can't rush them with this matter."
Kang Ying thought so as well. People have their own worries, and going out had their own difficulties, so she waited patiently.
After waiting for another 10 minutes, the two drivers still did not come out. Kang Ying saw that Shi Jiangyuan was resting with his eyes closed, so she stopped calling him. She got up and walked towards the backyard, wanting to see what the driver was doing.
