At noon, Xu Mumu and her coworkers in the office could leave work a bit early, so Xu Mumu went to enjoy the shoe factory's cafeteria.
She went together with Chen Meili, and the cafeteria still had a few people there, those who came for an early lunch usually had some position.
Looking at the variety of dishes in the cafeteria, Xu Mumu was pleasantly surprised.
Xu Mumu had meat coupons, so she got a serving of braised ribs and another of bamboo shoots stir-fried with meat.
"Mumu, you really have money," Chen Meili admired once more, looking at the dishes Xu Mumu got.
"It's alright, not too expensive." Xu Mumu smiled and glanced at Chen Meili's dishes, which were two vegetarian ones.
"Doesn't your family ask you to hand over your salary? My mother-in-law wants me to hand over most of mine," Chen Meili lamented her family situation, thankful she was staying in the dorm and not at home, where she'd likely argue with her mother-in-law often.
