Looking at the somewhat annoyed Zhang Qingzhu, Xiang Hao was surprised. In his impression, Zhang Qingzhu has always been a young lady with a high talent for alchemy and a very timid temperament. He never thought that she would be annoyed with others.

As a person who has been on many missions, Xiang Hao adheres to the principle that as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. He said to Zhang Qingzhu very calmly: "Hello Comrade Zhang Qingzhu, I am here to send some local specialties home."

After Xiang Hao finished speaking, he lifted up the sack in his hand to prove that what he said was true. Zhang Qingzhu glanced at Xiang Hao and did not chase him. Instead, he said to Xiang Hao: "Comrade Xiang Hao, please go ahead. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."

Zhang Qingzhu left the post office on her bicycle and headed towards the supply and marketing cooperative. She had a lot of things in her hands, but also a lot of money and bills. The bills were time-limited, so she had to use them quickly.

With this in mind, Zhang Qingzhu went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of things. Condiments, fabrics, daily necessities, cakes, etc. filled up most of her backpack. She then went to the meat processing factory to buy lean meat and bones, which were still available at the meat stall when she went there.

Zhang Qingzhu put the meat he bought into the space through the cover of the backpack. Seeing that it was noon, Zhang Qingzhu went to the state-owned restaurant to eat.

She planned to go back after having dinner in the county. Her main task in the county was to mail letters. Now the letters had been mailed, and she also visited the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things.

Zhang Qingzhu had heard Zhang Song recommend to her more than once that there was a state-owned noodle shop in the county, and that the noodles made there were very delicious. Since she was here, she decided to go and try it to see if it was as delicious as Zhang Song said.

Zhang Qingzhu followed the route Zhang Song had given her and found the state-owned noodle restaurant he mentioned. She looked at the today's offerings on the blackboard, ordered a bowl of and started looking for a seat.

At lunchtime, this noodle shop was quite crowded. After looking around, Zhang Qingzhu saw Xiang Hao was also in the shop. And coincidentally, there was still a seat at Xiang Hao's table. Zhang Qingzhu had no choice but to sit at Xiang Hao's table.

When Zhang Qingzhu was looking for a seat, Xiang Hao also spotted Zhang Qingzhu. Seeing Zhang Qingzhu approaching his dining table, he greeted Zhang Qingzhu and said, "Comrade Zhang Qingzhu, are you here to eat too? What a coincidence."

Zhang Qingzhu sat down and thought to herself, isn't this obvious? Otherwise, why is she here? She said to Xiang Hao, "What a coincidence. I didn't expect you to come here for dinner."

"I heard that the noodles in this restaurant are very delicious, so I came to try it. I didn't expect you to follow me as soon as I sat down." Xiang Hao felt that he and Zhang Qingzhu were quite destined to meet today as they met twice.

Zhang Qingzhu nodded and said, "I heard someone recommend this restaurant. They said the noodles are delicious, so I came here to try it. I didn't expect to meet you."

Xiang Hao: "Do you have anything else to do after dinner? If not, let's go back together. You'll have someone to accompany you on the way."

Xiang Hao saw that Zhang Qingzhu's backpack was mostly full of things, so he suggested that he should have finished shopping. After all, his job now was to protect Zhang Qingzhu's personal safety, so it would be safer to go together, although Zhang Qingzhu might not need protection.

Zhang Qingzhu: "Okay, let's go together. I don't have anything to do here."

Zhang Qingzhu didn't have much to do in the county town, so she just came out to stroll around and meet people. She had originally planned to go back to the village after dinner, and now Xiang Hao suggested going together and she didn't refuse. It would be nice to have a companion on the road, so she agreed.

While Zhang Qingzhu and Xiang Hao were chatting, they heard the waiter shout, "Noodles for number 17 and 26 are ready, come and get your food."

The two looked at the number plates in their hands, which were theirs. They took the noodles one after the other and ate them. As soon as they put them in their mouths, they felt that the trip was worthwhile.

The noodles here are very chewy, and the soup is also very good. It is sour, spicy, refreshing and smooth, which makes people feel satisfied. Although it is hot in the summer, it is appetizing.

Xiang Hao and Zhang Qingzhu are both people who have eaten good food, and they still felt that the noodles were delicious, which shows that the noodles in this restaurant are indeed very good.

If we say that Zhang Qingzhu and Xiang Hao thought this noodle was delicious because they hadn't eaten delicious food for a long time in the apocalypse, then this is just nonsense.

Like Zhang Qingzhu, Xiang Hao had never been deprived of food during the apocalypse. They only made do when they were on a mission, and their usual diet was still very refined. After all, with their status, they would never lack supplies.

There are three state-owned restaurants in Taolin County. This one specializes in noodles, and the noodles are very delicious. It used to be a small private noodle shop, then it became a state-owned restaurant after a public-private partnership. It is a decades-old shop.

Stores that can be open for decades are basically good stores recognized by the public. Stores that fail to truly conquer the taste buds of the public cannot last long.

Nowadays, things are very substantial, and a big bowl of noodles is really a big bowl. Fortunately, Zhang Qingzhu and his partner are both martial artists, so they both ate up all the noodles in their bowls. Most people who come here to eat noodles either order a small bowl or a large bowl, and take the leftovers away in a lunch box.

People like Zhang Qingzhu and Xiang Hao were rare, and the people sitting next to them were a little surprised. Xiang Hao was better, after all, he was a tall man, so it was understandable that he ate more.

But it was a bit outrageous for a delicate little girl like Zhang Qingzhu to eat a big bowl of noodles. Many people eating around were looking at Xiang Hao with sympathy.

Everyone heard what they said and thought they were dating. Seeing how much Zhang Qingzhu ate, they felt sorry for Xiang Hao. If he married a wife who ate so much, it would be a problem to support her.

Especially a young man who was eating at the same table. He felt a little jealous when he first learned that Xiang Hao and Zhang Qingzhu knew each other. He thought that such a beautiful girl was already taken, so why couldn't he meet her?

As a result, when I saw Zhang Qingzhu eating a big bowl of noodles, I felt that it was a blessing that I couldn't meet him. I thought that I should find a partner who looks similar in the future. A good-looking person not only needs to wear nice clothes, but also needs to eat so much. I can't afford it.

After they finished their meal, they didn't stay any longer, but picked up their things and rode back. They chatted as they rode, and before they knew it, they were out of the county town.

Xiang Hao thought the journey would be peaceful, but he found something unusual in the forest ahead not long after he left the county town. While he was on his way, he used his mental power to explore the forests on both sides of the road, planning to catch pheasants and rabbits and cook them at Zhang Qingzhu's house.

Although the noodles at noon were delicious, there was not much meat in them, so it was very satisfying to eat. It just so happened that he planned to learn how to make medicine from Zhang Qingzhu at his house in the afternoon, and then go hunting pheasants and rabbits to cook them after learning. He could cook as well as eat.
