Chapter 9: Gentle Scheming

It's been more than 5:50 when I returned to my residence, and I was going to eat a little outside and come back, but I haven't bought kitchen supplies in my rented house, and I can't cook when I go back, but when I think of Sister Shan asking me to go to her house for dinner in the morning, do I go or not? Ahem, just go, don't let the family carry too much "debt". Some people are like this, they are always uncomfortable when they owe someone else's affection, and they always try to pay it back as soon as possible, otherwise they won't be able to sleep well. In this case, how can I bear to let my family endure this "torture of indebtedness"? Go ahead!

I could have knocked on the door and went in to see if there was anything I needed help with, but what if they were just polite and didn't prepare their own food at all? Wouldn't it be a great embarrassment to pass by yourself? Of course, I know that Sister Shan must be ready, maybe waiting for my knock on the door! Sometimes Chinese people are like this, obviously very simple things, but they have to think very complicated, and they have to be so "twists and turns" to be logical, this is not only a matter of face, but also a set of deep "philosophy" in life.

I browsed other job postings on the Internet, people can't hang themselves from a tree, drivers can't, choose others!

At this moment, there was a very soft knock on the door, and I knew that Sister Shan had probably come to let me go to dinner.

I closed the computer and saw two handsome faces, one big and one small, through the "cat's eye", it was Sister Shan holding Xinxin knocking on the door. I gently opened the door: "Hello, big sister, sit in the house." "Xinxin stretched out her little hand and wanted me to hug it, of course I couldn't let her young heart down, and took it over from Xinxin." Brother, the meal is ready, you didn't knock on the door just now, are you out? I said lightly: "I went out just now to ask about my driver's license, and I don't have a driver's license yet!" I said it so easily, but how did she know that my wallet had just been "slaughtered" by that black-hearted principal.

"Oh, then go and eat, I know you didn't eat enough at noon, so eat more in the evening." Sister Shan said, turned around and walked out. I hugged Shin Shin and followed behind and closed the door. Sister Shan's door is not locked, in fact, there is no need to lock it, in an old-fashioned community like this, no thief who does not open his eyes will "patronize".

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a pungent fragrance, and because the house was not big, the aroma became more and more intense. Xinxin relied on me and refused to come down, I had to hold it, I was happy to do it, it was better to hold the child than to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and I could also avoid facing Sister Shan's dodgy eyes. Shin Shin led me to "visit" her toys, she also has her own toy "warehouse" like other children, the little girl's toys are nothing more than some rag dolls, bini bears, small color stickers, etc., but Shin Shin's toys are far more than these, there are many boys' favorite cars, toys anti-real guns, etc., and there are a lot of them. Pity the hearts of parents in the world, Sister Shan's mind is not what to do, she can't give her child complete love, then try to satisfy her child materially, although the family is not rich, but the child is the first, I would rather suffer more grievances, can not be wronged by the child, which can be seen from the number of toys.

"Isn't Shin Shin not like a girl?" Sister Shan walked behind us at some point, and she asked cautiously when she saw Xinxin playing with the puppy and me holding a toy pistol in a daze.

"No, that's good." I didn't answer the question, how did she know that I was holding the child's toy pistol, and her mind was back to the special operations team on the line of life and death.

"Xinxin, let's eat, will you have dinner with your uncle tonight?"

"Okay, Mom, I want my uncle to sleep with me tonight." Xinxin's answer was more unreliable than what I had just said, and she actually said it in a childish voice. The two adults present were shocked by the child's brainless words. I don't have to look up to guess how embarrassed Sister Shan's face is at the moment.

"Xinxin, we haven't had dinner yet, okay?" Sister Shan quickly took over the topic and urged Xinxin to eat. "Okay." Xinxin happily agreed. I still picked up Xinxin and followed Sister Shan, I could have held her little hand, but my height of more than 180 cm, holding the hand of a child less than one meter must have been very uncomfortable, so I chose to hold it.

Four dishes and one soup are already on the table, and the standard family dining mode is a typical family meal: one steamed catfish, one fried meat with garlic sprouts, one scrambled egg with tomatoes, one cold cucumber, and one black chicken soup. This must have been carefully prepared by Sister Shan, she must have been in the refrigerator for an afternoon, there will not be so much food in the refrigerator, this must have been bought when Xinxin was sleeping, not only worried that Xinxin would wake up early and not find her and cry, but also worried that the things she bought were not to my taste, how much this gentle and graceful woman attaches great importance to this meal!

I was moved in my heart, how could I have ever enjoyed such treatment? "Eldest sister, you don't want to be like this, this is too rich, right? This will eat up half a month's food expenses for Shin Shin. ”

"What's the matter, this is made casually by my sister, I don't know if it suits your taste."

"Eldest sister, if you are like this, I won't dare to come to you again to eat in the future." I said half-jokingly.

"Look at what you said, if you are so polite again, Xinxin and I will not dare to trouble you again in the future." Sister Shan also half-jokingly said how natural and sincere her shallow smile was.

"Eldest sister, I'll come back to rub rice in the future, please don't make it so rich, just make more staple food."

"Sister knows, do you think I don't know? You definitely didn't eat enough at noon, and it is estimated that you are not even half full of dumplings, so you must eat more at night, but you are not allowed to keep the amount. Sister Shan said as she looked at me with a strange look.

"Okay eldest sister, don't treat me as an outsider, I'm going to come here often in the future."

Xinxin saw that we kept talking, and immediately became unhappy: "Mom, I'm hungry." ”

"Okay baby, mom will cook for you, okay?"

As a result, after a meal, I was completely full, Sister Shan actually used a small iron basin to wash rice and gave me a sharp pot of rice, which is not counted, and 90% of the half pot of black chicken soup was returned to me, if in normal times, this little rice is nothing at all, but it is a case of a lot of exercise, but I haven't been active for the past two days, and it is a bit too much to eat.
