Chapter 14 Passing is as close as home
Perhaps stimulated by the imminent success of Ding Dezhi's blind date, coupled with the instigation of Chang Xiaochang and Ma Juan, Shi Tao took the initiative more than before, approaching Yang Qiong more frequently, creating opportunities for frequent contact.
Recently, going to work with Yang Qiong will inevitably go hand in hand, and they will inevitably come back together after work, and the two are almost inseparable.
Even when he went out to buy vegetables, Shi Tao had to stick with Yang Qiong.
Although Yang Qiong does not have a stove, she has an electric stove to make a fire, so Shi Tao often cooks with her.
Tian Lingling is gone, there are no newcomers, and now Yang Qiong lives in a single room, which is convenient for Shi Tao, and there is no embarrassment that Tian Lingling couldn't let go of when she was there.
If Yang Qiong is asked to go to his dormitory, there are others there, Yang Qiong is always reluctant to go.
Even if Chang Xiaochang and the two opened the door to hide out, Yang Qiong felt too embarrassed, and her dormitory naturally became a stronghold for the two.
In the world of two, Shi Tao felt that he didn't need to take into account the feelings of others, and could do whatever he wanted.
Of course, because the level of cooking skills determines the quality of Shi Tao's cooking, it is relatively simple, or he can directly buy some ready-made cooked dishes, but he feels very satisfied with these.
After all, a simple meal is hard to whet people's appetites. One day, Shi Tao wanted to make dumplings on a whim.
Going to the restaurant to eat, in fact, is also very convenient, and Yang Qiong was also invited to go, but when I went to the restaurant, I lost the fun of the two of them cooperating, cooperating with each other, and enjoying the fruits of their labor.
Shi Tao bought minced meat and flour, borrowed rolling pins and other utensils, and to Shi Tao's surprise, Yang Qiong didn't even know how to make noodles!
Shi Tao had to reluctantly get started, thinking: I knew earlier that I wouldn't cover it, why is this suffering?
After Shi Tao's prison-like struggle against flour, the final result was that the dough was too soft, and it could be made into dumpling wrappers without a rolling pin!
When Shi Tao was cooking the dumplings, he found that the dumplings were all stuck to the board and had to pinch them off one by one, but fortunately they were not yet cooked.
The two of them ate this dumpling with excitement and apprehension, and infinitely sighed that life is really not easy, life is full of knowledge, and cooking is not a casual success.
When Shi Tao learned from Ma Juan and others about their dumpling making, it caused everyone to laugh. However, everyone expressed their support for him, continued to work hard, insisted on learning, and believed that it would get better and better every time.
With everyone's encouragement, Shi Tao strengthened his confidence and always found a reason to make dumplings with Yang Qiong every once in a while.
Although I felt a little frequent and troublesome, Yang Qiong was quite cooperative. After many practical operations, the dumplings made by the two of them have gradually become more and more presentable.
Sometimes there is a situation where the dumpling skin is boiled, and Shi Tao takes the lead to eliminate the broken dumplings. Yang Qiong said that he was self-inflicted and self-inflicted.
Shi Tao found that Yang Qiong basically didn't go home on Sunday in order to accompany him. This made Shi Tao feel Yang Qiong's sincerity, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The two usually go to the street by bicycle, initially one for each person, side by side. Later, Shi Tao found that it was difficult to make the two more intimate, and immediately proposed to ride a car.
In this way, he can take Yang Qiong around for a swim, what he wants is the feeling of Yang Qiong sitting on the back seat of the bicycle with both hands on him, which will feel extremely sweet.
When visiting the mall, the two held hands and chatted while walking, as for what to buy, Shi Tao didn't care at all, what he cared about was whether he was holding his beloved.
Shi Tao will also buy some snacks such as rock sugar gourds and marshmallows for Yang Qiong at the stalls on the street. Watching Yang Qiong eat those small snacks like a child, Shi Tao was very comfortable, and it felt better than eating it himself.
At this time, they did not feel like adults, but like two children playing, as if they had found the joy of childhood again. The childlike amusement of the two gradually deepened each other's impression and enhanced their mutual affection.
During this period of time, even Shi Tao in the class was the same, and his contact with Yang Qiong naturally increased.
Shi Tao took it for granted that he helped Yang Qiong, and Yang Qiong's help to Shi Tao came naturally.
In the eyes of the workers, from the original laughter and fun, it has gradually become a matter of course.
On the contrary, when Shi Tao and Yang Qiong are not together, like Xiaoguan, they will still ask curiously, "Why don't you teach others?"
Shi Tao had to say, "Two people can't stick together all the time, right? Go, smoke and go. ”
Seeing that the relationship between Shi Tao and Yang Qiong was getting closer and closer, Chang Xiaochang, Ma Juan and others were happy for him.
It can be seen that the intimacy of the two people has escalated, and they both think that the further development of their relationship will be inevitable.
People talk less about the two of them, and they tend to be quiet.
Another change is worth noting, Shi Tao, who was previously unkempt, is now very attentive to his own image.
Although the boy's long hair looks lively, it also looks a little sloppy after all, Shi Tao pushed a small flat head, and he is obviously more sharp.
He used to wear work clothes all day, but now he only wears them when he goes to work, and he usually wears casual clothes such as T-shirts and jackets.
The green rubber shoes that have been worn all year round have also been replaced with leather shoes, and the leather shoes are still polished.
Yang Qiong also saw these changes in her eyes, and liked them a little more.
Yang Qiong usually doesn't wear overalls, but takes out the clothes she likes, and dresses them up beautifully, which makes Shi Tao look even more pleasing to the eye.
The two walked together, a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, and others did seem to be a good match.
When the two were cooking and eating in the dormitory, Mulan Lan from the laboratory where they lived in the same corridor teased them, "This is like a family." ”
Privately, Mulan Lan said to Shi Tao: "Your relationship has developed like this, aren't you ready to get married?" Yang Qiong is a very good girl, if you don't plan to get married, it means that you still have problems with other people's feelings." If you really don't want to, I can introduce you to another one. My colleague in my class has a younger sister who is about the same age as you, and the little girl is not bad, I heard that she is very filial and has a very good life. She is also a worker in our factory and works in a branch factory. ”
Shi Tao said impatiently: "Eldest sister, are you saying that the matchmaker is coming! Do you want to say that it is successful, or do you want to say that it is scattered? How can you be so persuasive?"
"I didn't mean that, I'm anxious for you. At your age, we were married early in the morning, and my sons were born. You see that people are one-on-one, either they have a partner at school, or after they come, the blind date is almost all done, and they are all preparing to get married. You're not in a hurry, hurry up, you can't delay any longer. Mulan Lan's fast mouth can't stop talking.
"The twisted melon is not sweet, and as soon as fate arrives, I will naturally get married. This one...... Don't worry about it, big sister. I'll get the kindness first, if it really doesn't work, it's not too late to bother you to introduce it. Shi Tao made Mulan Lan feel a little annoyed, but it was not appropriate to say it to death.
Mulan Lan also said something similar to Yang Qiong, urging Yang Qiong to say: "Shi Tao is a good young man, it's almost fine." You see that you are eating together, going to work together, and going out to play together, isn't this just a family? Fate has arrived, and you can't miss it. ”
Yang Qiong just smiled and didn't say anything.
Is Yang Qiong willing or unwilling?
