Chapter 50: A Serendipitous Encounter
"Hi, Lin Qiu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" When Lin Qiu was packing up his clothes, a familiar female voice sounded in his ears, and when he looked up, Xia Yiying stood in front of him with a smile, today she was dressed in professional clothes, dressed up neatly and neatly, quite the style of a working woman, but she was carrying several clothing bags in her hands, and her painting style changed abruptly.
"What a coincidence, is this a coincidence between the two of us?" Lin Qiu said hello, in the X province of Nuoda, it is really a kind of fate that the two can meet by chance.
"It's nature." Xia Yiying showed a bright smile, if she hadn't glanced over here, how could she see Lin Qiu, "There is a fate to meet, let's go and sit in the store next to us." β
"Wait, I'll divide my clothes." Lin Qiu hurriedly cleaned up, and finally reduced the 8 bags to 4, and simply put the socks and shoeboxes in one place, which was more convenient to lift.
"What are you doing here?" Xia Yiying saw that Lin Qiu's behavior was a little strange, and asked with some curiosity.
"Come and sit next to me." Lin Qiu patted the empty seat beside her and motioned for her to sit down, and whispered in her ear about the strange salesman she had encountered.
Xia Yiying couldn't help laughing, "I really can't see it, you still do this." β
Lin Qiu felt a little embarrassed when she thought about it, she was actually a few years older than that girl, she smiled a little embarrassed, "I'm not angry, my temper came up all of a sudden." β
"Well done." Xia Yiying cast an appreciative look, "That woman can't keep her qi like at this time, that face is like a color palette, it's quite interesting to think about." β
"But you've changed a lot over the years." Xia Yiying raised her eyebrows, "But such a character, well, it's not bad."
After all, this body has been replaced, Lin Qiu now thinks about it in his heart, he doesn't think about it so much, if without exception, he will live with this body for a lifetime, even if there is an accident, this stolen time is the most precious.
"Are you familiar with this place?"
"Very cooked."
"Sit back and talk about it, do you know where department stores sell coffee beans?" Lin Qiu couldn't find it when he walked around by himself, and now there was a person in front of him who could ask for directions, saving a lot of effort.
Xia Yiying's brows furrowed suddenly, "That thing, it's so bitter, you can drink it." Thinking about the difference between the taste and the bitter Chinese medicine, thinking about it, the scalp was a little numb, Xia Yiying looked at Lin Qiu with curiosity.
"No, the coffee tastes very good, if you drink more, you will naturally like it, and good coffee is bitter first and then sweet." Lin Qiu hadn't drunk coffee for seven or eight months, and Lin Qiu was nostalgic now, "This is the bitterness that comes sweetly." β
"I can't enjoy it, but I didn't buy coffee beans." It's better not to try it yourself.,I don't know how many times I have to suffer from it from hate to like.,Comparatively.γ In recent years, there have been a lot of things flowing in from abroad, and drinking coffee and black tea has become a new hobby for many rich people. Compared with coffee, black tea is my preference, and it is good to drink a cup of black tea and eat a small snack in the afternoon.
Lin Qiu was a little disappointed, and it seemed that he had to buy a few packs of instant coffee to satisfy his cravings, but it was good to drink it again.
"I know a few places to buy coffee beans, but they're far from here."
Lin Qiu's eyes lit up.
"But now that I'm so tired from shopping, let's find a place to sit first."
Xia Yiying raised her legs and walked first, followed by Lin Qiu.
The cafΓ© is relatively simple in dΓ©cor, with a few mirrors and a few murals hanging from the red walls. In the room, there are a few old and clean tables, a few old fabric sofas, a few tin toys, a few black and white televisions, and bursts of music from the disc player, which looks very tasteful.
It is very different from the fashion, leisure and humanistic decoration styles often seen in later generations, but it makes people feel very relaxed, and the air is full of rich coffee flavor, mellow and attractive.
"What do you want to drink?"
"It's the first time I've come, I don't know much, you recommend it."
"One cup of Shanghai clear coffee, one cup of Shanghai milk coffee, two parts of milk and two parts of sugar, and two servings of cream cake." Xia Yiying blinked, "This place is not bad, but it may not be possible in the future, now that foreign cafes are starting to walk in, business here is not so good." β
"I still like it here, it's more relaxed, and if I want to add a few portions of sugar and a few milks to my liking, others will only smile kindly."
As she spoke, Xia Yiying looked a little depressed.
"What's the matter, my brow is furrowed." Lin Qiu doesn't look like a person who loves coffee, maybe it's because of the good memories she had here?
The few times I saw her, it was a fiery rose in full bloom, and suddenly I saw her unhappy appearance, and I felt a little inexplicable.
"Hello, your coffee and cake."
Xia Yiying didn't answer, Lin Qiu didn't ask, the two sat quietly in this small corner, enjoying this rare and beautiful travel, and the busyness and fatigue of weekdays drifted away with the strong smell of coffee.
Truth be told, the taste of coffee is generally off, the coffee is somewhat overcooked, and it tastes slightly bitter, which is somewhat different from the mild bitterness of the coffee itself.
Coffee is brewed well, patience is very important, coffee must be understood, time must be controlled, time is short and the fragrance cannot come out, and it will be like this after a long time.
"Ahem, how astringent and bitter is today's coffee, I have added enough milk and sugar." Xia Yiying ate a bite of cake first and then drank coffee, but the thick astringency and bitterness spread in her mouth, and when she didn't pay attention, she coughed, so she quickly dug a spoonful of cream cake to suppress the taste.
Lin Qiu laughed lightly and continued to drink the coffee in the cup, in such a beautiful atmosphere, a little flaw is negligible, and drinking is more of a feeling.
Xia Yiying looked up in surprise, "It's so bitter, you can drink it." "This is the taste of her cup of milk coffee, so what is the taste of her cup of clear coffee? When I think about it, I feel that my tongue is numb, and it must be worse than Chinese medicine.
This cup of milk coffee, she made up her mind not to touch it again.
"I don't think my bitterness is really anything compared to the coffee in front of me?" That kind of lonely mood surged up on Xia Yiying's face again.
"My dad and mom actually forced me to get married!" Sure enough, this excited appearance is more suitable for her, and she looks wilted and has no vitality at all.
Forced marriage, it stands to reason that she is about the same age as herself, and she should also be of the age of marriage.
"I'm still married to my brother."
"Ahh Lin Qiu thought he had heard it wrong, wasn't Xia Yiying a girl? Lin Qiu swept Xia Yiying, looking like a pure woman, not like a man.
"What you see, it's not what you think." Xia Yiying looked at Lin Qiu's curious and puzzled look, knowing that she must have misunderstood her words, and she looked a little bitter.
