A powerful country in scientific research

It was dinner time, and the hall was crowded with people. The noisy atmosphere was filled with enticing aromas.

After a while, the food ordered by He Cheng was served. The tempting sweet and sour spare ribs, the fragrant pepper and salt corn, and the mapo tofu with rich red oil were placed on the solid wooden dining table, looking particularly appetizing.

He Cheng didn't rush to pick up his chopsticks. He just looked at Su Ran quietly.

Su Ran gently picked up the chopsticks and said coquettishly, "Why are you looking at me? Why aren't you eating?"

He Cheng smiled and replied: "My girlfriend hasn't even started eating yet, how can I, a freeloader, eat here?"

Hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips. She said proudly, "I told you I'd treat you to a meal, so don't be so polite to me."

He Cheng chuckled, "Okay, then I'll obey your command." After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks and first picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for Su Ran, then picked up a piece of tofu and put it in his mouth. The spicy taste in his mouth made him praise, "Not bad! The spiciness is just right."

Su Ran was no longer reserved. In fact, she was extremely hungry when the dishes were first served, especially the sweet and sour spareribs. Her mouth was watering when they were served. Although they had been to this state-owned restaurant many times, she had never eaten the three dishes they ordered today before!

She couldn't wait to pick up a piece of pork ribs and put it into her mouth. The sweet gravy and the sweet and sour vinegar blended in her mouth, making her smack her lips in amazement.

"This sweet and sour pork ribs is delicious! I really love sweet and sour things."

He Cheng curled his lips. He had long discovered that Su Ran liked sweet and sour, spicy dishes. So when he cooked for Su Ran, Zhang Xue and others, he would always make scrambled eggs with tomatoes and spicy and sour potato shreds. He has also been learning new dishes from those who are good at cooking in the team. Didn't someone say that if you want to capture a person, you must first capture her stomach? Comrade He Cheng is working hard.

The two of them chatted while tasting the food.

Su Ran: "Did you just call Deputy Mayor Chen again?"

He Cheng shook his head, "No, I called my grandma. What about you? You called my uncle?" At the end, he couldn't help but smile. Obviously he remembered the last time they made an appointment to come to the county town to make a phone call, and they ended up calling Chen Changxing.

Su Ran also remembered the mistake last time. She curled the corners of her lips and said, "No, I called my mother. I haven't seen her for a long time. I wanted to ask her how she is doing at the food factory."

He Cheng said with a smile: "Last time, they were all beaten by my uncle, but this time, there was no one."

"Hahaha, indeed, the popularity is declining too fast." Su Ran couldn't help but complain.

He Cheng smiled in agreement. He swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "It seems that you have been very busy recently. Are you done?"

"Well, I'm done with my work, but I may have to start new research soon, so I'll be busy again."

He Cheng knew that she was a person who could not rest, and so was he, so he understood her thoughts very well, but he still couldn't help but say, "No matter how busy you are, you must take care of your health and don't forget to eat."

He had obviously noticed that Su Ran had lost weight recently, and had wanted to say this for a long time.

Su Ran felt a little guilty. In fact, she ate a lot every day, but she was busy drawing blueprints these days and worked overtime in the system laboratory for several nights in a row. It was normal for her to lose some weight due to the high consumption of energy.

But she couldn't just say that, she evaded the main point and said, "Maybe I've been too busy these past few days and consumed too much energy. I'll try to eat more and make up for it quickly!"

He Cheng: "Let's start from today." He handed her two pieces of ribs.

Su Ran, who was a little full from eating, said:......

Very good, now she knows what kind of hunger is when your boyfriend thinks you are hungry (⊙o⊙).

Okay, then she'll eat some more.

So, Su Ran, who was about to put down his chopsticks, resigned himself to his fate and started eating again.

He Cheng looked at the girl with a smile, eating like a cute little squirrel, and couldn't help but curl his lips.

......

There were fewer and fewer people in the restaurant, and Su Ran and He Cheng had finished their meal.

"My dear boyfriend, are you satisfied with the meal?"

He Cheng put down his chopsticks, picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, then said with a smile: "Thank you Comrade Su Ran, I am very satisfied with this meal, I am almost full."

Su Ran smiled but said nothing, secretly complaining in her heart that she was already full! !

He Cheng: "When you are free again, let's come over and try other dishes. It's my treat."

"Okay." Foodie Su Ran has already started looking forward to it.

The two put on their coats and headed for the door with their packed meals.

After coming out, He Cheng and Su Ran got on the bicycle. He Cheng pedaled with his right foot and the bicycle moved forward slowly.

They had just finished lunch and it was still early, so they planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to have a look and buy some things.

Su Ran did not rush to the place selling meat and vegetables as she did before, but went to the daily necessities store next door. Winter was approaching, and she had to buy thick clothes for her grandparents.

Of course she needs one too, and has to buy one for herself.

Su Ran looked at the heavy-looking cotton jacket hanging there, sighed softly, and murmured softly, "It would be nice to have a down jacket."

This time He Cheng was very close to her, so even though her voice was very low, He Cheng still heard it. Surprise flashed in his eyes, "What is a down jacket?" He was confused and asked.

Su Ran then realized that her complaints had been heard. She smiled and explained, "Down jackets are also outerwear worn in winter. They are very similar to cotton-padded jackets, but they are warmer and have duck feathers inside."

He Cheng: "Is duck feathers warmer than cotton?"

Su Ran: "Yes, it is much warmer. When the wind is strong in winter, you will still feel very cold when wearing a cotton jacket, right? But if you wear a down jacket, the wind will hardly blow through it."

"Oh~ okay, sounds good." He Cheng said with a gleam in his eyes.

Su Ran: "Yeah, it's a pity that it's not here, alas."

"It's okay, just buy a cotton jacket first. When I have a down jacket later, I'll buy you one!" He Cheng suggested.

Su Ran nodded. This was the only way.

"Okay, I'll just buy one first."

She selected three good-looking cotton jackets from the bunch of bulky ones, and chose a pair of cotton shoes for her grandparents. After paying, the salesperson packed up the clothes and handed them to Su Ran.

After Su Ran took it, she turned around again, and then she saw something very familiar to her neatly placed on a stall.

Looking at the long line in front of the counter, she curled her lips and said teasingly: "The oil from your factory is very popular. So many people are queuing up."

He Cheng smiled faintly and said, "That's because I have a beautiful and kind girlfriend who selflessly helped our factory improve the machinery. Otherwise, how could we squeeze out such fragrant oil?"

Su Ran chuckled twice. She is indeed beautiful and kind-hearted.

......

At the same time, Tokyo.

The International Housewares Exhibition was held as usual, but the difference this time was that previously the most popular booth in the home appliance category was from country R, ​​but this time it was the Chinese booth that was crowded. The booth was filled with various home appliances, the most eye-catching of which were rice cookers and single-drum washing machines. Visitors from various countries stopped to watch.
