My years as a fortune teller
Chapter 779
After I was about to put down my things, I went to chat with the girl just now.But I didn't expect that before the things were put down, I heard a few noises at the gate of the courtyard. Looking back at the gate of the courtyard, a young man pushed a scooter into the courtyard.
The young guy put down the scooter, and walked towards his house expressionlessly.This guy has cold eyes when he looks at people, and he walks very lightly, and his footsteps can hardly be heard.
This guy is not very old, he looks like he is in his early twenties.She has very short hair and is wearing the same overalls as the girl just now.He went straight to the girl's room and closed the door of his house behind his back.
It seems that the girl and the young man just now are the young couple that the old landlord said.Today's young people fall in love and get married very early. Although some post-[-]s are not yet married, many post-[-]s are planning to get married and even some have children.
I don't know how old this young couple is, and I don't want to ask.First, we are not very familiar with it after all, and second, this is someone else's business, and it doesn't make any sense for me to ask.The most important thing for me at the moment is to solve the problem of eating.
It is definitely possible to eat outside, but the first is the quality of the food; the second is that I am afraid that I will not be full and spend more money.I have always had a problem, and the same bowl I made myself is definitely enough.But if it is bought on the street, you will be hungry after a while. This may be due to psychological factors, or it may be a problem with the portion size of the food on the street.
I went to the kitchen and took a look. All the cooking utensils were neatly placed in one place.Hey, is it possible that I still have to cook for myself here?In fact, cooking is not difficult, the difficulty lies in cooking for one person.
If you do too much, there will be leftovers, and if you do too little, it will be difficult to do.This is outside, not when there are leftovers at home that can be stored in the refrigerator for the next meal. Here is the storage condition, and it is not convenient to make more.
It seems that I have to go out to buy food. Thinking of this, I secretly sighed and prepared to leave the kitchen.I didn't expect that when I turned around, I saw the young couple next door to me standing behind me with vegetables.
Turning around suddenly and seeing them, I was still startled, wondering why the young couple didn't make any footsteps when they walked?I smiled hurriedly and said, "You guys come over to cook! Hehe, I just came over to have a look."
The man didn't show any expression, but the woman smiled generously and said, "Brother, does he also want to cook here? If so, you cook first, and we'll come back later." She tugged on the boy's sleeve .
I hurriedly said to them: "No, no! I just came here to have a look, and I want to boil some water later. I'm a bachelor, and it's not worthwhile to cook for myself. I might as well go out to eat, it's more convenient."
When the girl heard this, she smiled and said to me, "If you don't mind, big brother, you can join us! Anyway, one more person, one more pair of chopsticks is nothing, as long as you don't dislike my poor craftsmanship!"
Just as the girl finished speaking, the boy tugged on the girl's sleeve.Although this action is not very obvious, but I can still see the eyes.It seems that this young man is not very happy about my partnership.
If this is the case, then I'd better forget it!Unexpectedly, a voice said: "Why don't you dislike this? They are all people who are away from home. They come here no matter how convenient they are. Why are they so unfamiliar?"
I looked outside, and it turned out that the old landlord was talking.The old man has said that, so I have something to say, so I smiled and said: "Well, since you old man said that, then I will be thick-skinned. But how much is the meal, it must be counted clearly."
The girl quickly said: "No, no! It's just a bite of food, why is it so clear! It's fate that everyone can get together, and a meal is not worth much." The girl smiled at me after she finished speaking.
Before I could speak, the old landlord spoke again: "Xiao Zhang, I think the food expenses for a day are 30 yuan, only for lunch and evening, and you can eat for a few days if you don't eat today. We don't count. If you only eat one meal today, you will only pay half of the price. What do you think of my proposal, old man?"
I nodded and shouted at him: "Just do what you want, I don't make sense. Even if I have a meal today, if I'm here in the evening, or I can have a supper at another night. I There is no objection, you can give me something to eat."
The old man shouted: "Okay, I like this temper. Straight to the point, I don't make detours with you. I like dealing with people like this, Lao Meng, you are so arrogant! Let me have a drink or two with Lao Meng some other day!" Then he continued "Xiaoguan, did you hear what Grandpa Meng said? Xiaoxia, I have to work overtime at night, just leave me a bowl of rice." After speaking, he heard footsteps, followed by the sound of the courtyard door closing.
This old man has a lot of style in talking and doing things, but it still suits my personality quite well.By this time I also knew the names of the girl and the boy.So I took out 300 yuan from my pocket, handed it to the girl and said, "Since the landlord, Mr. Meng, has said so, I won't refuse. This is ten days before the meal, so you don't have enough to pay first."
The girl smiled twice, and took the money with some embarrassment.Without waiting for her to speak, I said first, "Am I the same as Mr. Meng, calling you Xiaoxia and Xiaoguan?" The girl took the money and put it into her pocket without counting.
Hearing what I said, he nodded and said: "My name is Meng Xiaoxia, and this is my husband Guan Jun. Then we will call you Brother Zhang from now on! We all live in the same yard, if there is anything that is not done properly , Brother Zhang, you must say it!"
I nodded repeatedly, and Meng Xiaoxia and Guan Jun walked into the kitchen and started cooking.I didn't think I could get my hands in it, so I went to my house to read a book.After a while, the girl asked me to eat. Today's meal is relatively simple, which is noodles, tomato eggs and stir-fried bean sprouts.
Maybe it was because I was hungry, or maybe it was the girl's handiwork. Well, in a blink of an eye, a bowl of rice went into my stomach, and I patted my stomach and said to the girl, "How good is this rice, this bowl of food is delicious. How beautiful!"
After hearing my words, Guan Jun looked at me sideways and said, "Brother Zhang is from Shaanxi? I heard these two sentences, it should be Shaanxi dialect! Hehe, I have a fellow who works in Xi'an. When I go home for the New Year Say the same thing."
This is the first time Guan Jun has spoken since seeing me, and he still has a little smile on his face.To be honest, if this kid smiles, he is really a handsome man. Once he pulls his face coldly, he is no different from a hanged ghost.
I smiled and nodded, and said to them: "I am from Gansu, and I have been in Xi'an since I graduated from school. However, my language talent is not good, and I can't speak standard Shaanxi dialect. It's also funny. By the way, are you two locals? Where do you work?"
I didn't think of my words, and they immediately stopped talking.Seeing them buried in their food, I murmured in my heart, these two children are not working in the entertainment club, are they?In fact, even in the entertainment club, there is no big deal!
Just when I was wondering for a while, Meng Xiaoxia suddenly raised her head and took out the money from her pocket, and said to me: "Brother Zhang will give you the money, I don't think I will cook for you in the future." It's about to flow down.
Oops, I'm dizzy, what's wrong?Didn't I just ask where I work? As for being so sensitive?Besides, she still agreed to Mr. Meng, so how can she turn her face when she turns her face?
Thinking of this, I smiled and said, "Even if you don't cook for me, you have to give me a reason, right? Besides, you all agreed to Mr. Meng, so you can't just turn your back on it! Give me a reason!"
After Meng Xiaoxia lowered her head and thought for a long time, she raised her head and said to me: "Xiaojun and I both work in the funeral parlor. He encoffins the dead, and I make up the dead. Both of us touch the dead with our hands every day. Affect your appetite!" I opened my eyes and laughed twice...
The young guy put down the scooter, and walked towards his house expressionlessly.This guy has cold eyes when he looks at people, and he walks very lightly, and his footsteps can hardly be heard.
