Chapter 20: The Twenty Degrees (15)

Inside a smoothly moving taxi.

It's a little weird quiet.

The driver coughed softly and turned on the radio casually.

Melodious singing echoes in the car.

It happened to be a song "Mother in the Candlelight".

"Mom, I want to say it to you, and I swallow it when the words come to my mouth."

"Mom, I want to smile at you, but there are tears in my eyes."

"Oh mom, mom by candlelight."

"Your black hair is frosty."

……

The slightly dull singing voice came into his ears, and the fat man Yang who was silent in the back seat, he sniffed.

On both sides of the road are street lamps.

The lights are reflected in the car.

The gray hair on Yu Jinghua's head became more obvious.

Fat Yang turned his face sideways, pretending to look at the hurried night scene outside the window.

But the tears continued to flow disobediently.

Yang Fatty's palm on his thigh was tightly clenched.

Gu Yuan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, took in the look of Yang Fatzi through the reflector.

He knew to give Yang Fatzi and her mother a little space to be alone: "Master driver, I'll get off at the intersection in front." ”

The taxi stopped.

Gu Yuan got out of the car.

Before closing the door: "Call me if you have something." ”

Gu Yuan left.

Taxis are on the road again.

Walking aimlessly.

Hometown timidity.

Gu Yuan missed his mother, his father, and Old Man Gu very much at this moment.

Tonight.

Is he going back and seeing?

It's been a year since the last time he went back, and he once wanted to take his parents and Old Man Gu to the city where he worked, but not only Old Man Gu was unwilling, but even his parents were unwilling, always thinking about letting him come back more often, the money would never be earned, and the work would never be finished.

Occasionally, a pair of hands would be held, or a couple with ten fingers interlocked, walking sweetly past Gu Yuan.

Unconsciously.

Walked down an old street.

On both sides of the street there are stalls for a variety of snacks.

There are too many people in Gu Yuan's heart who can't let go, and Lin Mengshan is naturally one of them.

After Gu Yuan caught up with Lin Mengshan.

The two are always in pairs.

Lin Mengshan likes to eat roadside barbecue.

Gu Yuan would say that the roadside was unhygienic every time, but he always couldn't resist Lin Mengshan's temper.

As a girl.

The biggest advantage can be coquettish.

Walking step by step on the old street, Gu Yuan was wafting with all kinds of fragrances and oily smells in the air.

He remembered that Lin Mengshan loved to eat all kinds of barbecue, but she would not get fat no matter how she ate it, which was what she was most proud of.

Every time before.

When she went out to eat roadside barbecue with Gu Yuan, Lin Mengshan had to put a lot of spicy, and she was born with a soft spot for spicy taste.

But Gu Yuan couldn't eat spicy food at all, which was also his only shortcoming back then.

But Lin Mengshan has been forcing Gu Yuan to eat spicy food, she swore and said: "Gu Yuan, you can't do this, you said that the tastes of the two of us are so different, how can we live together in the future?" You have to like spicy food as well. ”

Thereupon.

Every time I go out with Lin Mengshan.

Gu Yuan will be forced to eat a lot of spicy food.

For Gu Yuan, who has extremely weak anti-spicy ability, he shed tears almost every time.

Once.

Lin Mengshan and Gu Yuan went out to eat together.

Gu Yuan habitually ordered spicy food, but Lin Mengshan stopped her, she ordered all the non-spicy food.

At first, Gu Yuan looked at her suspiciously.

Lin Mengshan blinked playfully: "Since you haven't been used to eating spicy food, then I'll try to get used to eating non-spicy food!" There must always be one of us who gets used to the other's tastes. ”

"Gu Yuan, you were like a fool at the beginning, and you really chased after the bus I was taking."

"Now I officially declare that in the future, you don't have to adapt to my habits, I will start to adapt to your habits."

"Because I find myself starting to fall in love with you."

……

Gu Yuan's steps stopped.

He looked at a barbecue booth on his right, as he was about to walk towards it.

I don't know who suddenly shouted.

The voice was extremely high-pitched.

The vendors who set up stalls on the old street, after they heard the sound, all pushed carts and scattered like birds and beasts.

Boy.

It's only a moment.

There is not even a single stall in the whole old street.

Several dressed in the system. The man in the suit appeared on the street, and it seems that no stalls are allowed on this old street.

Gu Yuan only hesitated for a second.

He then chased after the barbecue stand he fancied.

Although after graduating from college, he gradually lost the habit of long-distance running, but his foundation is still there, like a cheetah running in the dark.

After going around a few alleys.

The owner of the barbecue stall pushing the trolley, he panted and looked at Gu Yuan: "What are you doing with me?" ”

Gu Yuan didn't talk much nonsense, and took out a hundred and gave it to the boss: "Bring me a few skewers of barbecue." ”

See is a customer.

The barbecue stall owner's face was immediately full of smiles: "Great! I'll roast it for you, my Lao Li's barbecue skills are absolutely speechless. ”

"I've never seen you before, this is the first time I've been here? You have eaten the meat I roasted once, and you will definitely want to eat it a second time. ”

"What flavor do you want?"

Gu Yuan said lightly: "Spicy, very spicy and spicy, I can put the seasoning myself." ”

Naturally, barbecue stall owners have to meet the needs of their customers.

The customer is God.

However, this God seems a little strange.

After the barbecue stall owner handed the grilled meat skewers to Gu Yuan.

I saw Gu Yuan pick up the jar with chili powder and keep sprinkling the chili powder on the meat skewers, until finally the meat skewers were all covered with a thick layer of chili powder.

Under the surprised gaze of the barbecue stall owner.

Gu Yuan skewered the chili peppers.

Wrong.

It should be said that the kebab was put in the mouth.

Eat one bite at a time.

Sniffing.

There is some redness in the eye sockets.

Is it spicy?

In fact, spicy can't make Gu Yuan cry at all.

Four years after graduating from university.

He eats spicy food alone almost every day, and every time he eats spicy food, he can think of Lin Mengshan's smiling face.

Skewers of roast meat covered with paprika, chew in your mouth, and finally swallow in your stomach.

His lips were stained with red paprika.

Maybe you just want to release it happily and want to shed tears!

Gu Yuan thought of too many people and things.

Lao Luo, Old Man Gu, his parents and Lin Mengshan's shadows kept appearing in his mind.

all these years.

He did miss a lot of things, and he missed a lot of people.

"It's so spicy, it's spicy, it's all in tears." Gu Yuan whispered, I don't know if he was explaining to the barbecue stall owner.

"Friend, it seems that you like spicy food very much, my Lao Li will bake a few skewers for you again, and I still have three jars of chili powder here, enough for you to sprinkle on the kebabs." The barbecue stall owner said with a smile.

Gu Yuan did not refuse.

He also wanted a little more spicy.

A little more spicy.

Maybe then the tears can flow more violently.

But did his tears really come from chili powder?
