Lin Gang cooked the dumplings and came out of the kitchen, seeing Liu Ruyan and her mother coming out, and sitting on the sofa looking at him, a little embarrassed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Old lady, Manager Liu, happy new year, I wish the old lady a long and healthy life, happy every day, Manager Liu everything goes well, I have already cooked dumplings, you see I don't know the specific work of the part-time worker, so I can't find two hours of work to do, I'm afraid to disappoint Manager Liu, or I'll go first." ”

"Thank you, young man, and I wish you a happy new year!" Liu Mu smiled slightly, "You don't have to blame yourself for not doing enough two hours of work, last night's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was the happiest meal I have eaten in more than twenty years, and this year is also the happiest year I have had, do you know, for a long time, Chinese New Year's Eve night was our mother and daughter, and you brought us joy last night." Mother Liu was a little suspicious that her daughter was deliberately making a play, otherwise it would be very unreasonable, and she still liked this young man, tall and handsome, and relatively honest.

Liu Ruyan's eyes did not leave Lin Gang, and when she heard that he was leaving, she got up from her mother's arms and asked, "How many dumplings have you cooked?"

"You should have enough to eat. Lin Gang thought that Liu Ruyan was afraid that the dumplings she cooked would not be enough for their mother and daughter to eat.

"Wait a minute. Liu Ruyan got up and came to the kitchen, opened the lid of the pot, looked at the dumplings in the pot, turned back to Lin Gang and said, "Why do you cook so much? After saying that, I looked at him deeply again, and went to the bathroom to tidy up my personal hygiene.

"Young man, don't be in a hurry to go, come, sit, for the New Year, you must finish eating dumplings before leaving. Seeing that Lin Gang was a little at a loss, Mother Liu hurriedly greeted.

Lin Gang smiled bitterly, shook his head and walked on the sofa, rubbing his hands together, a little unnatural, unable to guess what this somewhat domineering princess was going to do.

Don't say that Lin Gang can't guess, even Liu Ruyan herself doesn't know why, in front of Lin Gang, it seems that there is no rationality, everything is unconscious.

Liu Ruyan freshened up, held a new toothbrush and a new towel in her hand, and handed it to Lin Gang. Lin Gang raised his head and looked at Liu Ruyan, there was too much confusion in his eyes, hoping to get Liu Ruyan's explanation.

"Young man, go and freshen up, and we'll have dinner for the New Year. Mother Liu came out of the small bathroom next to the bedroom, and when she saw the toiletries handed to him by her daughter, he looked at her daughter hesitantly and reminded her.

Lin Gang got up and took the towel and toothbrush. After Lin Gang took the toothbrush and towel, Liu Ruyan went in to change out of her pajamas, came out to the kitchen, took out two small bowls, and after serving one bowl for herself and her mother, she found a soup bowl, put all the remaining dumplings into the soup bowl, and brought them to the dining table. Liu Mu saw these actions in her eyes, and believed her judgment even more, this young man and his daughter must have some kind of relationship.

After Lin Gang finished freshening up, Liu Ruyan pointed to the big soup bowl and said to Lin Gang, "This is your task." ”

"Young man, do you still want to go to work on the first day of the Lunar New Year?" Liu's mother asked casually while eating dumplings, he also thought that Lin Gang was the masterpiece of his daughter's director, and he didn't think that the young man in front of him was a guy from the hotel, so he asked deliberately.

"I am a temporary worker, only one day of work, the company has to work until the seventh day of the new year, these days I applied for a job at Nanjiang Hotel, four o'clock in the afternoon to work. For more than ten years, every year on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he was curled up in a rental house, eating instant noodles, and he could have a big bowl of dumplings as a New Year's dinner, which he couldn't think of, not that he couldn't afford to buy dumplings, but on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he didn't buy it earlier.

Listening to Liu Mu's homely question, he answered naturally. "Then why didn't you go home for the New Year?" Liu's mother spoke calmly and her tone was concerned, she understood a little, maybe it was not directed by her daughter.

Lin Gang was stunned for a moment, the chopsticks in his hand loosened, and the dumplings clamped on the chopsticks fell back into the bowl. Yes, who doesn't want to go home and reunite with their parents for the Chinese New Year, but the Spring Festival pay is three times as much, and the mother still needs money to consolidate her illness, can he miss it? But he can't tell them the truth about his situation, and even if he tells the truth, can people believe it? He still thinks that he is pretending to be pitiful and winning the sympathy of the people in the city. However, he immediately realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly took a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth, wanting to take advantage of this effort to think about how he would answer.

Seeing that Liu Ruyan and Liu's mother were looking at him, Lin Gang was anxious and hurriedly covered up: "During the Spring Festival, everyone has to go home, the flow of people is too big, the tickets are too difficult to buy, I want to invite a few fellow villagers to rent a car to go back, but everyone wants to go home for the New Year, and they don't want to run a long distance, so they have to not go back, anyway, they went home some time ago." "Lin Gang's lie is really flawless.

"Oh, it's really hard to buy tickets, so do you still have fellow villagers here?Are you going to spend the New Year together?"

"Some fellows have changed their ways to go back, and some fellows have taken refuge with relatives, and I have no relatives here, so I have to spend the New Year alone. Lin Gang had no choice but to continue the lie, this is difficult for him who is not good at lying, in fact, he is in the provincial capital, except for the old classmates he met on New Year's Day, he doesn't know other fellow villagers at all, he is in the vast sea of people, too small, a low-level worker, can not enter the fellow association composed of officials and business circles, how can he have the opportunity to contact fellow villagers.

"Since you don't go to work and you're alone, let's just eat lunch and leave. Liu's mother finally said her intentions, after speaking, her eyes looked at her daughter, looking at her daughter's attitude, although she understood that she had misunderstood her daughter, but she looked at her son-in-law and still wanted to prove her idea. "This. Liu's mother's words, so that Lin Gang really didn't know how to answer, promise, I don't know what the old man will see himself, after all, in the eyes of the old man, no better than Liu Ruyan, maybe Liu Ruyan is thinking that she is Shang Yuemei's classmate, in a feeling for a good sister, leaving herself at home, in the eyes of the old man, he should be a part-time worker, it is possible that the old man is a polite retention, and he took the liberty of agreeing, so that the owner has a bad impression. Don't agree, I feel that the old lady is sincerely invited, judging from the situation last night and today's words, this family does not have some masculinity.

"Don't stop here, and don't delay you from going to work, so be it. Liu Ruyan's face turned crimson, looked up at him, and said in an unshirkable tone, she guessed that Lin Gang was more entangled at this time, only she spoke, and everyone was not embarrassed.

"Thank you. Lin Gang saw a kind of ardent expectation in Liu Ruyan's eyes, and his heart moved, anyway, when he went back, he was surfing the Internet in the rental house, so it was better to accompany this haggard old lady and the goddess in his heart.

After eating the dumplings, Liu Ruyan got up to clean up, Lin Gang hurriedly cleaned up, and said while cleaning up: "I'll come, I'll come, two hours of work is still far away." ”

"It's going to be overtime, and I'll have to pay you. Liu Ruyan responded with a smile, but she didn't grab it with Lin Gang. "Then I'll have to pay for your meal. Lin Gang also relaxed.

"What are you talking about, we are like a family together and having a happy New Year, don't say those unpleasant words. Mother Liu smiled and looked at the two young people, although it was a temporary combination, they were also happy.

There is a supermarket downstairs, and Lin Gang accompanied Liu's mother and Liu Ruyan to buy vegetables, which is indeed like a warm little family. Mother Liu took the apron and prepared the lunch meal. Lin Gang took the apron from Mother Liu's hand and said, "Old lady, you rest, let me come." ”

"Can you stir-fry?" Liu Mu was a little surprised, and there were some surprises, this young man is really good.

"I know how to order, it's just some basic methods, I'm afraid that it won't taste good. Lin Gang said modestly. Lin Gang walked into the kitchen, put the apron around his neck, skillfully fastened the belt around his waist, and skillfully manipulated the pots and pans. Seeing that Lin Gang was so professional in cutting vegetables, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but be curious, so she stood beside her and asked: "Have you studied cooking? If you have studied cooking, why don't you apply for a chef? The salary of a chef is higher than that of middle-level positions in some companies." ”

Lin Gang did not stop what he was doing, and explained his cooking skills like this: " I haven't studied cooking, and I can't afford to pay tuition, for more than ten years, most of the meals are made by myself, so that I can save some money, in order to make myself feel that I don't always eat a few dishes, I changed my own tricks to figure out the cooking skills, and slowly felt that stir-frying also has pleasure, and I slowly liked stir-frying, but I didn't have the conditions to buy all kinds of raw materials like meat to cook carefully, so I had to imprint some recipes firmly in my mind on the computer, and then practice when I have the conditions. These ordinary dishes, after Lin Gang's cooking, complement each other with color and aroma, and the blending is really amazing, which makes Liu Ruyan's mother and daughter stunned.

Liu Ruyan picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of braised minced pork and eggplant in her mouth, which was much more delicious than the fried ones in the restaurant, of course, this may be a psychological effect, but it is enough to prove that Lin Gang's cooking skills are superb.
