Chapter 374: Could You Sell Us Some?
Jiang Ran also got off the bed and took out a jar from the middle bunk.
Inside the jar were pickles she made herself and another jar of fermented sauce.
Opening these up to eat with the meal later on would improve the taste of the not-so-good food quite a bit.
The flavors of the pickles and fermented sauce were quite strong.
As soon as they were opened, the aroma filled the entire compartment.
The elderly man sitting opposite and the young man beside him both glanced over.
With both of them staring, Jiang Ran remained calm as ever.
In both her past and present life, she had been stared at for quite some time.
With just two people staring, she was naturally very composed.
Before long, Pei Yang returned with the meals.
There was rice, vegetables, and also a serving of steamed noodles.
Although the dishes weren’t particularly delicious, with pickles and fermented sauce, even the most ordinary meals became tasty.
The fermented sauce seemed to have been pickled and then stir-fried with sesame oil.
While being fried, pieces of fatty and lean pork were also added.
The aroma was simply irresistible.
Even a bowl of plain boiled noodles would taste delicious with a spoonful of this fermented sauce.
The three of them ate quietly, but the smiles and satisfaction on their faces were undeniable.
Of course, that’s also because they weren’t trying to hide it at all.
Pei Jing would take a bite, then glance at Jiang Ran, smiling at her.
Anyone looking at Pei Jing’s expression could guess what Pei Jing meant, even if he didn’t speak.
At this moment, the elderly man spoke.
"Comrade, could you spare some of your fermented sauce and pickles for us?"
Hearing the elder’s words, Jiang Ran looked over at him.
The elder had a gentle smile, and he exuded a very calm demeanor.
The two men beside the elder seemed like they wanted to say something, but for some reason, they didn’t, and their expressions were particularly complicated.
Jiang Ran’s gaze swept over the two, finally settling on the elder.
"It’s just some sauce and pickles, no need to talk about buying or not."
Jiang Ran said, passing over both jars.
When Jiang Ran and the others had eaten, they used a clean spoon to scoop the sauce and pickles into their bowls.
So at this moment, passing the jars over didn’t bring any psychological burden to Jiang Ran.
If they were to still mind, it might be better if they didn’t eat it anyway.
The elder, without a hint of disdain, took some and placed it into his lunchbox.
In the elder’s lunchbox were steamed noodles.
After scooping some, the elder looked at the two people beside him, "Do you want some?"
Upon hearing this, both nodded and stepped forward to scoop some for themselves.
After scooping, Xiao Wang placed the two jars back in front of Jiang Ran and the others, "Thank you."
Aside from when they first got on the train, Xiao Wang’s behavior was acceptable afterward, so Jiang Ran didn’t show him any coldness, merely nodding in response.
Over there, the elder was already eating.
After just one bite, the elder gave Jiang Ran a thumbs up, "Delicious! Did you make this yourselves?"
Before Jiang Ran could respond, Pei Yang spoke up, "Of course, my sister-in-law made this, and her cooking is the best!"
If no one had tasted the fermented sauce and pickles, one might think Pei Yang was boasting.
