Chapter 56 A Serious Person

I knocked on the door, and soon Mrs. Bai opened the door.There was a smell of oily smoke blowing over my face, and Mrs. Bai was wearing an apron as if she was cooking. When she saw me, she immediately greeted her with a smile as if she was seeing a savior.

"It's Qiaoer! Come in quickly, I still have guests at home, and I'm worrying about what to cook, so you're here, help me quickly! You happen to be here for lunch."

I hurriedly said: "Then I'll finish cooking for you, and I'll go. In fact, I want to get back that pot of prickly pear!"

"I told you to leave after finishing your work. What have I become? I have something else to tell you. During the meal, I'm discussing the matter of shipping. Come in first and then talk about it." She pulled I'm in.

When I entered the door, I saw a man in his 30s. He was wearing a blue sportswear, sitting in the living room, holding a cigarette in one hand, and reading a newspaper in the other. is handsome.

Hearing the sound of the door, the man also raised his head. His eyes met mine, and a pair of sharp eyes immediately swept across my body. His gaze made people feel uncomfortable, as if he was examining a prisoner.

Sister-in-law Bai said: "His name is Ma Bin, and he works at our police station. He is my friend for many years. This is Wang Qiaozhen from our village. I hired her to work."

The man stood up and walked towards me, holding out his hand: "Hello."

I lowered my head and agreed, and stretched out my hand. His hand was strong and rough.

I thought to myself, no wonder he looks at me like this, because he works at the police station.Gao Tiansheng's father also works at the police station, do you know him?

She smiled and said, "Qiaoer's cooking is delicious, just wait for the meal!"

Ma Bin didn't mean to be polite, so he nodded and sat back to continue reading the newspaper.

My sister-in-law Bai and I came to the kitchen, and she closed the door and told me in a low voice: "If there is no one I know to help our stall, I don't worry, it will be bad if a bastard or something comes in." , that's why I asked Ma Bin to help us. He will definitely take care of it."

"Well, I can tell that the two of you have a good relationship, and he's no stranger to you."

Sister-in-law Bai smiled and said, "That's right! I've known him for several years. His wife is dead. If Ma Bin doesn't have time for a business trip, her girl will eat at my side, which is in the elementary school opposite."

Standing in front of the kitchen window, it happened to be the gate of a small school opposite, but today was the weekend and no one was there.

I nodded: "It turns out that he lost his wife."

"That's not right! My daughter is eight years old and is in the second grade. He is very nice and works hard, but he is not very good at talking. How about it? If you like him, let me introduce you to him?"

I blushed: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me! I don't want to date now, I just want to work hard."

Sister-in-law Bai smiled and patted my butt: "You don't have to be embarrassed, you are such a good talent, I want to introduce you as soon as I meet a good person. If you meet someone you like, just tell me, sister-in-law will help you." Once you say it, it will be done.”

I knew she was joking, but she just smiled and didn't speak.

Sister-in-law Bai said: "This kitchen is too small, I can't stand up, you should cook, I'll talk to him."

"Go ahead, I'll do it alone."

Sister-in-law Bai left. I saw that she had fried peanuts just now, but most of them were not cooked. I put them in the pot and fried them again. I divided them into two bowls, one with sugar and the other with sugar. Salt.Her steamed eggplant is also half-baked, so she uses the sauced eggplant made with sauce and adds a little pepper, which instantly overflows with aroma.I saw a lot of materials in the kitchen. Dried tofu, cucumber, and jelly were mixed with cold dishes, topped with minced meat and chili oil, and another fish was stewed.

Sister-in-law Bai smiled in that room: "It smells so good, when will we eat?"

"Soon!" I turned off the gas stove and said with a smile, "Wash your hands and eat!"

After filling the table with dishes, I smiled and said, "If it's all right, I'll leave first?"

Sister-in-law Bai pressed me hard on the seat: "You child! I told you not to let you go, just sit and eat honestly. I still have something to tell you."

Ma Bin didn't speak, but put a pair of chopsticks neatly in front of me with a serious face. He never looked at me, but I was still very embarrassed.

Everyone started to eat. Ma Bin ate peanuts all the time. He especially liked salty ones, so he ate half of them after a while.

"Qiao'er, who taught you this meal, it's really unique, why don't you open a restaurant? I'll sponsor you."

I hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law Bai, don't scare me, I can only cook some home-cooked dishes, and I've never seen those serious dishes."

Ma Bin coughed a few times: "Stop joking, just be serious."

"Hey, is this covered?"

Ma Bin said: "Don't be joking. The girl is thin-skinned."

In fact, he has only glanced at me since he entered the door, but it made me very embarrassed. I feel uncomfortable all over, and I don't know why I feel this way.I always feel like he's been watching me.

Sister Bai pursed her lips and smiled, then said to me: "Qiaoer, tell me, what do you want to do tomorrow?"

I thought for a while and said, "There are a lot of fruit sellers here in the hospital who visit patients. Why don't they order the big apples that look good? They don't care if they taste good, they just want to look good, and they also sell some bananas and hawthorns."

"Hawthorn?" Sister-in-law Bai frowned and said, "Hawthorn is always in small quantity, so it sells for one five or six yuan a catty! It's not easy to sell, right? Those rich and dual-employed people are reluctant to buy such a rare fruit. You will lose a lot of money.”

I smiled and said: "I have inquired about it. The employees and the hospital here are all paid these days. They have a lot of money in their hands. They will buy some for their children. Besides, hawthorns last for a long time." , even if it can’t be sold, I can boil it and make it into canned hawthorn, and it won’t fail to sell.”

Sister Bai looked at me in surprise: "Ah! You observe very carefully!"

"I've been in the village for the past few days, and when I have time, I also think about how to do a good job in business."

"Okay, there is a future. Sure enough, I saw the right person." Sister-in-law Bai smiled and nodded, and gave me an envelope: "This is the money for the fruit, and you can write it down for me clearly. A total of 200 yuan , if you make a wrong calculation, I can't agree."

"I know." I took it carefully.

Ma Bin looked at her, as if he wanted to say something, but he held back.

Sister Bai smiled and pushed him: "Don't worry! I'm not a big bad wolf, I won't eat the little white rabbit! If I don't believe in Qiaoer, I can't use her either."

Ma Bin coughed a few times: "Let's eat, this joke is really meaningless."

I reluctantly ate a few more dishes with chopsticks, then stood up and said goodbye.

Sister-in-law Bai knew my character, so she didn't keep me anymore.

Before she left, she took out the small pot of prickly pear from the balcony of the bedroom and gave it to me: "Your baby, take it back."

I took it in a hurry, and after a few days of not seeing it, it seemed to grow a little bigger and the color became better.My hand gently touched the small thorn on it, and I was very happy.

"I'm leaving too, the unit still has something to do!" Ma Bin also came out at this time.

Sister-in-law Bai laughed and said, "It just so happens that the two of you are leaving together. It's none of my business!"

I was very nervous, but Mrs. Bai ignored me and closed the door.I could only walk down the stairs with Ma Bin one after the other, and no one spoke along the way.He was indeed a man of few words.

When I reached the gate of the building, I looked at him in the opposite direction and said, "Then, see you later."

"Wang Qiaozhen!" He stopped me, and said after a while: "You work hard, if there is anything, you tell me."

I nodded and watched him go a long way, and then I breathed a long sigh of relief.The tone of this person's speech has always been commanding, very serious.

I went back to the house prepared for me by my sister-in-law, and I simply cleaned it up. I put the pot of prickly pear on the windowsill, looked at it carefully, and then suddenly sighed, thinking it would be useless.

Before I knew it, it was evening.In order to catch up with the fruit tomorrow morning, I went to bed early.

When I think that tomorrow is my official working day, I am a little nervous and more excited.
