Chapter Seventy-Eight: Temptation
In order to inquire about his grandfather's whereabouts, Zhou Xiaoan finally sat down with Pan Mingyuan.
Pan Mingyuan took out his lunch to eat, it was still the kind of round and small corn tortillas he ate last time, and he didn't pay much attention to Zhou Xiaoan.
Zhou Xiaoan relaxed a little, but looking at the two chaff dumplings in his lunch box, he wanted to vomit blood again......
Unless she was going to starve to death, she really didn't want to touch anything like this again......
But I still pinched a small piece of hard head and stuffed it into my mouth.
Unsurprisingly, it was so unpalatable that it almost made you lose your sense of taste.
It was like chewing a mouthful of strange-tasting sawdust, which didn't form a clump or swallow, and a few small dregs ran into her throat, itching her to cough suppressedly.
Pan Mingyuan had already prepared, and he didn't know where to take out a bottle of small champagne and hand it to Zhou Xiaoan.
Zhou Xiaoan has never seen such a high-end soda until now, it is said that a bottle costs three cents and five cents, and a small bottle can top five catties of cornmeal.
It's so delicious to watch......
The champagne-colored soda comes in a clear glass bottle with sweet little bubbles.
There was no soda in the space, and she hadn't had a carbonated drink in a long time.
Zhou Xiao'an's throat was itchy and uncomfortable, so he reached out to pick it up, and slowly shrank back halfway through, three cents and five cents can buy a bowl of hot noodle soup and a poached egg, like noodles, this soda is not something that can be bought with money, it may still be a special commodity.
She drank such expensive things, how could she pay it back?
Forget it.
But Pan Mingyuan kept holding it up, and handed his hand forward, as if he had to accept it.
He is so sincere, is it too rude to insist on not to.
Zhou Xiaoan's little paw stretched out again.
But if you can't drink it, isn't it obvious that you are taking advantage of others?
Zhou Xiaoan's little paw retracted again.
Pan Mingyuan coughed, but he couldn't hold back his laughter.
The child was like a timid little squirrel, looking at a big hazelnut with shining eyes, but he couldn't believe his good luck, and tentatively touched and shrank back with his little paws, but he still couldn't resist the temptation, and couldn't help but stretch out his little paws to touch.
It's so much fun!
"Zhou Zhenxing is an employee of the steel mill, right?" Pan Mingyuan saw Zhou Xiaoan raise his head sharply and look at him in surprise, but he refused to say anything, but raised the soda in his hand.
Zhou Xiaoan no longer hesitated, and reached out to take it, but as soon as she took a small sip of the soda, the lunch box on her lap fell in a weird and impossible way.
The chaff dumplings, which were not in a clump in the first place, fell to the ground and were completely killed into scum, and they couldn't pick it up if they wanted to.
"Oh, that's a shame." Pan Mingyuan sighed meaningfully, picked up the lunch box for Zhou Xiaoan, took out a handkerchief, and gave her one of his tortillas.
"Eat mine first! There are still classes in the afternoon, how can I study without eating? ”
Anyway, I drank all the sodas, and I didn't care if I owed one more tortilla, Zhou Xiaoan didn't struggle this time, and took it after thanking him.
"Have you found Zhou Zhenxing?" Otherwise, how would you know that he is a steel mill worker?
Pan Mingyuan chewed his lunch slowly and methodically, and it took a long time to finish a bite under Zhou Xiaoan's expectant gaze, pointing to the tortilla in her hand and smiling and not speaking.
Zhou Xiaoan had to eat first.
Pan Mingyuan didn't know where to take out another bottle of champagne, and he didn't forget to signal Zhou Xiaoan to take a sip of it himself.
Zhou Xiaoan almost went to check if he also had a space, how could he take out one later!
was taken by him like this, and when he finished eating and drinking soda, Zhou Xiaoan also ate almost enough.
Pan Mingyuan wiped his hands slowly with a handkerchief, "Oh, it's time for class, I still have to prepare for class, let's talk about Zhou Zhenxing after class!" ”
Zhou Xiaoan was stunned.
This person is obviously hanging her with her grandfather's business! But she can't get angry, she has a short mouth, she still hasn't finished half a bottle of soda, and now she has no confidence to turn her face......
Besides, he also has good intentions, and she is not stupid, of course she knows that this person is pitiful for her eating too poorly, and helps her in disguise.
Zhou Xiaoan looked at the clothes on his body and felt that he really needed help when he looked like he was now.
These days, she is going to get a divorce, and she is afraid of wearing new clothes, and she is still wearing old clothes with patches and old homespun clothes from the countryside.
Today is a homespun blouse and black pants of a different color than the patches on the knees, which look very shabby.
Zhou Xiaoan was still thinking about how to let him say it quickly, Pan Mingyuan looked at his watch, and had already stood up and walked on his own, "Wait for me here after class, and I'll take you to Zhou Zhenxing." ”
After walking a few steps, he turned his head and smiled at her, "You still owe people a few catties of cornmeal, who will pay it back for you if I don't go?" ”
Zhou Xiaoan was so angry that he stared at him, why is this person such a scoundrel! Did he forget how he lost the cornmeal?!
Pan Mingyuan smiled like a fox, and after admiring Zhou Xiaoan's angry cheeks and round eyes, he waved his hand to her, turned around and walked away slowly.
But after school in the evening, Zhou Xiaoan waited next to the sundial for more than an hour, and the sky was dark, but Pan Mingyuan still didn't come.
Zhou Xiaoan had no choice but to leave.
Although I was reluctant to come, I was quite disappointed to be released in this way.
Although she tosses happily every day, trying to make her life better, she still hopes to find her grandfather, that is, she doesn't rely on him, and with her relatives by her side, she can be more down-to-earth.
She still can't go to her grandfather tomorrow, she plans to go to Sister Lao and handle the divorce first.
This matter is like a knife hanging over her head, she will wake up when she thinks about sleeping, and it must be solved as soon as possible.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xiaoan went to the trade union, but Sister Lao hadn't come yet, Zhou Xiaoan helped the new director of the trade union to wipe the table and turn hot water, and Sister Lao and others came to work.
"Xiao An, come here so early?" Sister Lao was very satisfied with Zhou Xiaoan's diligence and sensibility, and proudly showed off to Chairman Jiang of the trade union, "What a diligent girl!" If the people who come to our union to talk about things are as sensible as her, our work will be easy to do! ”
Yesterday, there was a threat to ask for a house and smash the glass of the union if the house was not given, Chairman Jiang and everyone nodded in agreement.
No, compared to those people, Zhou Xiaoan is so sensible, and it is comfortable to help her solve some difficulties like this!
Sister Lao put down other things and devoted herself to helping Zhou Xiaoan come up with ideas.
Zhou Xiaoan had his own idea, "My mother said, let me go back and live a good life." ”
With this premise, Sister Lao is even more satisfied.
"My mother told me not to go back to my mother-in-law and Han Dazhuang first." As soon as he thought that he was involved with such a man, Zhou Xiaoan couldn't bear goosebumps, and he even had trouble saying his name.
"My mother said that I was about the same age as my sister-in-law and could talk, so it was better for me to ask her about the situation at my mother-in-law's house than to go back with a blank eye."
Han Xiaoshuang was spoiled by the Han family, she was a cannon temper, she couldn't hide anything, and it was best to start with her.
Let Sister Lao listen to the Han family's plans first, and then the rest will be easier to do.
Sister Lao also thinks this is good, "Your mother is right!" Letting your sister-in-law pass a word in the middle is also a buffer, which is better than meeting both parties impulsively, and saying anything hurtful! ”
No need for Zhou Xiaoan to say, Sister Lao volunteered, "Go!" The eldest sister will go with you to find Han Xiaoshuang! Let's talk to her! ”
