The next day, Wang Dalun rode a small flying pigeon in the direction of Nancheng. Passing by a vegetable market, he hesitated, but got out of the car and walked in. When he came out, he carried several bags in his hand, tomatoes, eggs, potatoes and two catties of chopped ribs.

Wang Dalun has a strong sense of direction, and with the memory of sending Zhang Lu home last time, he turned around and found the compound located in the deepest part of the alley.

It was a very dilapidated yard, with several bungalows crooked together like irregular building blocks. Even though it was a Sunday, the yard was quiet, and the drying racks were mostly filled with cheap and rudimentary clothes. This is a typical yard for migrant workers, as only those who work in the service industry rarely have Sundays.

An old man sat on a chair on the steps of the main room, and on a stool next to him was a pot of tea and a theater box with Peking Opera on it. The old man sat there very comfortably, with his eyes closed, basking in the sun, while listening to Peking Opera very leisurely, clapping with his hands on his lap, and occasionally humming softly.

"Uncle!"

The old man seemed to be very reluctant to be disturbed, opened his eyes with a displeased expression, quickly glanced at Wang Dalun, and said, "The houses here are all rented, you can ask elsewhere." ”

Wang Dalun has messy hair, wears a pair of outdated glasses, and wears a cheap suit that is one size larger, but he doesn't look like a migrant boy drifting north.

"Uncle, I'm not here to rent a house, I'm here to find someone. Does Zhang Lu live here?"

"Looking for Zhang Lu?" This time the old man looked at him carefully and asked, "Who are you and what is the matter with her?"

"Oh, I followed Zhang Lu to learn foreign languages, and I passed by here today to come and see her. Wang Dalun said with a smile.

"You also learn foreign languages?" The old man looked at him with disdain, and didn't seem to believe Wang Dalun's words, maybe he saw that his attitude was better, and he turned his head to a small house in the north corner, and said, "Zhang Lu lives there, but no one is there." ”

Wang Dalun then remembered that once Zhang Lu once said that she had to make up classes for students on Sunday mornings and mornings.

"Then will she come back at noon?" Wang Dalun asked the old man again.

The old man's tone was a little impatient, and he said, "I don't know, I don't know the exact number." ”

There is no accurate number to say that sometimes he comes back, so Wang Dalun decided to wait until noon.

"Uncle, you smoke. ”

The old man glanced at the cigarette box in Wang Dalun's hand, the red camellia for five yuan, well, it was a grade higher than those poor workers, the old man straightened up and took the cigarette, and Wang Dalun diligently helped him light it.

As soon as he smoked his cigarette, the old man's attitude improved, and he asked Wang Dalun to sit on the small bench next to him. After smoking a cigarette and coaxing two good words, the old man opened the conversation with Wang Dalun.

Zhang Lu moved here three years ago, and the rent is 300 per month. The old man said that it was not easy to see that she was a girl and was still in college, and she was a responsible person, so the rent had not risen for three years.

Just as Wang Dalun was chatting with the old man, there was a "bang", the courtyard door opened, and Zhang Lu came back.

Seeing Wang Dalun, Zhang Lu was surprised, "Why are you here?"

"I happened to be passing by here, so I stopped by to see you. Wang Dalun hurriedly greeted him.

Zhang Lu glanced at the bag hanging from the handlebar of the bicycle and said, "You can pass by here if you buy vegetables, you go to Nanyuan to buy vegetables?"

"Ugh!"

Wang Dalun still planned to tell the truth, and said, "I just wanted to come and see you...... Well, Liu Ling told me about you yesterday......"

"What, sympathize with me, or pity me?" Zhang Lu interrupted him, his eyes flashing with mockery.

Wang Dalun sighed secretly in his heart, shook his head, and said very sincerely: "It's not sympathy, it's not pity, I just want to come to see you, oh, and, I want to cook you a meal by the way." ”

This time it was Zhang Lu's turn to be surprised, her eyes widened, she pointed to the bag on the handlebar, and said in surprise: "You...... You're coming and cooking for me?"

"I originally wanted to come and see you, but when I passed by the vegetable market, I thought that you didn't have time to eat yesterday, so I might as well come over and cook you a meal. ”

After speaking, Wang Dalun saw that Zhang Lu didn't react for a long time, so he had to take the bag and hand it over, saying, "It's okay, then I'll go back first, you can keep the dishes." ”

Zhang Lu turned around, opened the door of the hut, and said, "Since you have come, let's do it." ”

"Uh, oh!" Unexpectedly, Zhang Lu agreed, and Wang Dalun hurriedly parked his bicycle and followed into the house.

The house is not big, only a dozen square meters. There is a small bed against the wall, a stove in the middle, a desk by the window, a folding table for eating, and a simple wardrobe. Because the house was facing north and leaning against the courtyard wall, I suddenly felt a chill when I walked in.

"My sir stove. ”

"Then I'll go wash the vegetables first. ”

In fact, there is nothing to wash the dish, that is, the ribs are washed with water in the basket, and the potatoes are peeled and cut into pieces. When Wang Dalun came back from washing the dishes, Zhang Lu had just lit the stove, and the fire was not yet hot. Wang Dalun first put the pork ribs into the pot, mixed some water, and stewed with ginger and shallots. There was still some hot water in the kettle, soak the tomatoes, peel and dice them, and beat the eggs again. At this time, the stove was hot, the water in the pot was boiling, and he hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot and took a spoon to remove the foam.

Zhang Lu had been watching from the side, and when he saw that he looked nimble, he couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at cooking." ”

"That's it, I've worked in several restaurants before......" accidentally pouted, and quickly explained: "I'm taking advantage of the vacation to work and study." ”

Fortunately, Zhang Lu didn't care, seeing that he was very busy, he said, "Do you want me to help?"

"No, I don't. Wang Dalun turned his head to look at it, found that there was a small rice cooker on the folding table, and said, "Or you wash the rice and stuff the rice." ”

After the ribs had been boiling in the pot for twenty minutes, Wang Dalun took the ribs out to dry, put the potato pieces into the soup, and added a little salt. I took a small bowl and put two large spoons of sugar.

"You want so much sugar?"

"If you put it less, the taste is not enough. ”

Wang Dalun added some soy sauce to the bowl again, a small half bowl of vinegar, no starch, put some flour on it, and then pounded it with chopsticks to adjust the sauce of sweet and sour pork ribs.

He saw that Zhang Lu had been beside him with a curious baby's appearance, and asked with a smile, "How do you usually cook by yourself?"

"I sometimes cook two dishes, and I will make scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Zhang Lu said.

"Then you can make this scrambled egg with tomatoes later. Wang Dalun said.

"Okay, let you try my hand too. ”

Zhang Lu talked a lot today, and this was also the most time they chatted in the past few months in addition to studying.

The potatoes in the pot were almost crispy, and he tasted the saltiness, just right, and put some MSG. Bring the stockpot aside and put the wok on top.

"Teacher Zhang Lu, now it's up to you to see your craftsmanship. ”

Zhang Lu rolled up her sleeves, tied up an apron, and poured oil into the hot pot.

"Less, more. Wang Dalun stretched his neck and looked at it and reminded.

"Put less oil, healthy. That being said, Zhang Lu still poured a little more oil.

As soon as the oil temperature was hot, Wang Dalun saw Zhang Lu and put diced diced tomatoes in the pot, and hurriedly stopped: "Why don't you scramble eggs first?"

"Hey, do you still have to scramble the eggs? Zhang Lu was surprised.

"Hey, grandma, I dare you used to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, not scrambled eggs with tomatoes! Okay, okay, I'll come back." ”

Wang Dalun said as he rushed to pour the beaten eggs into the pot, and the oil was almost burning. "Whew-" The eggs quickly condensed in the pot, and he hurriedly scrambled the eggs with a spatula three times and five times, and put them out. Put a little oil in the pot, and when the oil is hot, he also instructed Zhang Lu: "You have to scramble the eggs first, and then add the tomatoes and stir-fry, and when the juice is about to be fried, put the scrambled eggs in, put some salt, put some monosodium glutamate, and fry it." Note that the tomatoes are a little sweet, just put a little salt on the line. You look at the frying. ”

Zhang Lu watched Wang Dalun's movements, and then suddenly realized: "It turned out that this was done like this, no wonder I always felt that the tomato scrambled eggs I made were different from the ones outside." ”

Listening to the words of an idiot like her, Wang Dalun could only sweat one. , I don't know how she has lived alone for the past three years. Scrambled eggs with tomatoes out of the pan, sprinkle with chopped green onions, wash the pan a bit, and stir-fry sweet and sour pork ribs in oil.

The ribs have been cooked in advance, just stir-fry in the pan and put in the pre-adjusted sauce, but unfortunately there is no cooked white sesame seeds, otherwise it will be more fragrant if you sprinkle it on it!

Two dishes and one soup were put on the table, and the meal was served.

Zhang Lu tasted a bite of sweet and sour pork ribs first, well, sweet and sour, very appetizing.

"Have a drink?" Zhang Lu said suddenly.

"You don't have classes in the afternoon?" Wang Dalun was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Zhang Lu to take the initiative to drink.

"No. ”

"Okay, then I'll go buy wine, if you want to drink beer, it's still white. ”

"No, I don't. ”

Wang Dalun was about to get up, but saw Zhang Lu take out a bottle from under the bed.

"I have it here. ”

It is the most ordinary two-pot head, and there is more than half a bottle in it.

Seeing Wang Dalun's surprised gaze, Zhang Lu shook the wine bottle in his hand and said, "I sometimes can't sleep at night, drink some of this to sleep." ”

Zhang Lu said very ordinary, but Wang Dalun could feel the pain in her heart, how many girls had to rely on alcohol paralysis to sleep? He felt very heartbroken. Liu Ling said that Zhang Lu was unwilling to accept help from others, and Wang Dalun understood very well, because in her opinion, this kind of help may be pity and charity. Wang Dalun felt that he couldn't help her, so he could only be silent.

Zhang Lu only has a cup for drinking water, and the wine can only be poured into the bowl.

"Thank you for cooking me a meal today, I respect you. Zhang Lu got half a bowl of wine in their respective bowls, picked it up and touched it.

"Yes, you've taught me English for so long. I should thank you. ”

Wang Dalun smiled reluctantly, although he did come here today to thank him, but the most he probably did was to ask for peace of mind.

Zhang Lu has a lot of wine, she drinks more than half a bottle, and Wang Dalun drinks less. Although he didn't see her smiling face, Wang Dalun could see that she was eating happily, which made him very pleased.

"I'm not going to film in other places next week, maybe I'm going to go out for a month, if you don't dislike it...... You move to live with me......"

Wang Dalun said but saw Zhang Lu's strange gaze, and then he realized that his words were indeed not very reliable, the two had nothing to do with each other, how could a young girl move to a man's house lightly.

He hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else, I just want me to be closer to you, and it is easier for you to enter and exit, after all, ...... Forget it, if you don't want to, just don't say it......"

Looking at Wang Dalun's embarrassed look, Zhang Lu remembered that he was also in a hurry to defend last time, and suddenly laughed out loud, her smile was still as bright as last time.

"When you come back, if you still want to learn English, don't forget to call me. ”

Seeing her playfully making a phone call, Wang Dalun smiled happily......

"It's a deal!"
