Reborn in the red age

Chapter 13 I, Li Laosan, am fearless
"Are you sure you don't want to? This is only ten yuan. Our mother is the only one in our family who can afford ten yuan. The eldest brother and the second sister only have 2 yuan per month that they can spend on their own," Qingfeng Li continued to seduce.

Li Hongmei covered her ears with her hands, lowered her head and refused to listen to Qingfeng Li's temptation: "No, no, just don't, put it away quickly, or I will sue our mother before she comes back tonight."

"Okay, if you don't want me to, I'll keep the flowers for myself. You can buy a lot of good things with this big unity ticket. You can buy orange juice, toffee, peach cake, canned sugar water, and malted milk."

Li Qingfeng, who had been observing the little girl, saw Li Hongmei swallowing, and the corners of his mouth curved up. How could a teenage girl not be greedy for movies? She had never eaten anything good since she was a child. Why? Maybe he can withstand the temptation of eating: "If you have food stamps, you can go to a restaurant, eat a mouthful of oily braised pork, and then have two fragrant white flour steamed buns, tsk tsk tsk, tsk tsk tsk, my mouth is watering, I have not grown so big yet I’ve been to a restaurant, but no, I’ll use the money to go to a restaurant tonight.”

Hearing that her third brother was going to a restaurant, Li Hongmei, who couldn't eat braised pork twice a year, couldn't bear it anymore. She put down her hands covering her ears, licked her face and looked at Qingfeng Li with a slightly flattering smile: " Well, third brother, if you go to a restaurant, can you take me with you? I have never been to a restaurant in my whole life."

Qingfeng Li fanned himself with this big unity card and joked with a smile in his eyes: "Didn't someone just say that they don't want these ten dollars?"

"Really? Why didn't I hear it? I guess I haven't eaten meat for a long time, I am severely malnourished, and my ears have just become temporarily deaf." Li Hongmei pretended to ask and answer.

Qingfeng Li didn't say a word, just stared at this little girl with eyes that looked at her.

Being looked at by her third brother, the flattering smile on Li Hongmei's face gradually disappeared, her face slowly became serious, she suddenly stood up from the stool, put her hands on her hips and shouted at Qingfeng Li: " Li Laosan, don’t sit still and don’t forget how you got the money. If you dare to go to a restaurant secretly by yourself, I will report you to our mother.”

"Good guy, are you a dog-faced girl? Just now you were calling the third brother and the third brother, but now you have become Li Laosan."

"Do you care? Just tell me whether you want to take me to a restaurant or not?"

"You're going to report me, can I just stop you?"

We went to the restaurant as soon as we said we would, and waited until it was almost time in the evening. It was estimated that the Li family would be back from get off work soon. After steaming the steamed buns for dinner, Li Qingfeng took Li Hongmei and closed the door, and went straight to the house with a few lunch boxes. Go to the state-owned hotel at the street entrance.

It is said that I took my little sister to a restaurant, that is, I went to the restaurant to pack two dishes and take them home to eat. I finally had an opportunity to take the whole family to improve the food. I couldn't take my little sister out to eat and drink spicy food. , leave the whole family at home to eat steamed buns and eat pickles, right?

Although he would definitely get scolded by Mother Li, he had nothing to do. He had long been used to being scolded. When the time came, he would shrink back and let Mother Li scold him, and he wouldn't lose a piece of meat.Arriving at the door of the restaurant at the street entrance, Li Hongmei stopped, tugged at the corner of Qingfeng Li's clothes, and looked at him solemnly: "Li Laosan, it's too late to regret it now. If you really go to the restaurant, you will definitely die tonight. Very miserable”

"What are you afraid of? Sacrifice me, and our whole family will be happy." After saying this, Li Qingfeng turned around, stood facing Li Hongmei, pointed his index finger at himself, and said righteously: "I, your third brother , Li Laosan, fearless”

After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the state-owned hotel without caring about his little sister who was looking at him with admiration.

"Hey, aren't these the third and youngest of the Li family? These are rare guests? Why did your mother change her gender today?"

The employees working in the restaurant at the entrance of the street are all nearby neighbors. Li Qingfeng was recognized as soon as he came in. Everyone also knew that Li’s mother, Hong Xingying, was very frugal and never went out to restaurants. When she saw Qingfeng Li coming in, the restaurant was filled with excitement. Some people laughed and teased him, which was why Qingfeng Li always ran far away to the outskirts of the city every time he went out for toothpaste festivals.

Qingfeng Li smiled and nodded at the other party: "Sister-in-law of the Qian family, look at what you said, who wouldn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? Our little girl will report to the factory the day after tomorrow, so let's celebrate with something good today. "

Most of the people who come to this restaurant to eat are neighbors. The Li family has lived here for decades and most of them know each other. When the guests of the hotel heard that the youngest of the Li family had found a job, they all turned towards him. Li Hongmei looked over, and many people had envious looks in their eyes.

It's so hard to find a job nowadays. A little girl who had just graduated two days ago found a job. Thinking of her children who were about to go to the countryside, her appetite suddenly disappeared.

Qian's sister-in-law, who works as a waiter in a restaurant, took out a pen and paper and looked at Li Hongmei with a smile: "Hey, Hongmei has found a job, which is a good thing. Now there are five people in your family working to earn wages. It's really time. Have a good meal to celebrate. If Hongmei wants to eat something, my sister-in-law will definitely ask the chef to make it for you."

"I don't know how to order, let my brother order." After all, Li Hongmei is a yellow-haired girl who has never seen much of the world. Li Hongmei, who dares to show off her teeth to Qingfeng Li at home, was timid and timid when asked about ordering. He didn't dare to order, so he put the task of ordering on Qingfeng Li.

Seeing that Li Hongmei didn't dare to order, knowing that the little girl was shy when going out, the Qian's sister-in-law just smiled softly and did not continue to encourage Li Hongmei to order by herself, but focused on Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li, who was a demolished household in his previous life, had never been to any big hotels. It was a small state-owned restaurant in the mid-70s. Naturally, Qingfeng Li couldn't show his timidity. Looking at today's menu on the blackboard hanging on the wall, Qingfeng Li directly opened his mouth to order. Dishes: "Sister-in-law from the Qian family, give me a piece of braised pork and a piece of pork head. Oh, and there is also stir-fried yellow beef. Give me a piece too."
