No one expected that Tang Yu was a good cook, simple materials, made the level of a chef, the pork skin was cut into cubes, stuffed into the peppers, and the fried tiger skin peppers were superior in color and appearance, and the taste was not to mention.

They have never seen enoki mushrooms can be rolled with thin pork belly and fried on the pot, no seasoning, only a little salt is sprinkled, the paste fragrance makes the young man who has been hungry all afternoon hungry, has been around the small kitchen to watch Tang Yu cook, standing at the door of the inner room Gu Li stared at the pork belly roll enoki mushrooms that had just come out of the pot, his eyes were dark, Tang Yu smiled, stuck a piece with a toothpick and handed it to his mouth, "Come, Xiaoliu, you taste it first, how does it taste." ”

Gu Li looked at the food in front of him, oily, shiny, fat, looking very tempting and delicious, his Adam's apple moved twice, without hesitation, he opened his mouth to bite it, and chewed it carefully.

The brothers lying outside the door suddenly couldn't help it, and they could hear a very loud sound of swallowing saliva, "Big brother, I want to taste it too." "Everyone was almost unanimous.

Tang Yu said: "What's the hurry? It's time to start eating. ”

"Big brother, you are eccentric! Why do you give it to Xiaoliu? Ji Xiaobei was not happy.

Tang Yu was straightforward: "He is small, and he is growing in body, can he compare with you?" Go and go, put the table in the yard and fight two, otherwise you won't be able to put so many dishes. ”

"He's 18 years old, is he still long? If you get any longer, you can go to the NBA to play basketball! ......" Yan Shan muttered.

Jin Wei slapped the back of Yan Shan's head vigorously, "What are you talking about?" Hurry up and get to work. ”

The brothers glanced at Tang Yu's back sadly, got busy, moved out the chairs from their respective rooms, and moved out two tables to put together, put them at the door, washed the newly bought dishes and chopsticks one by one, and brought the delicious dishes that had been made to the table, one by one stunned around the table to admire the exquisite dishes cooked by Chef Zhou, his eyes were glowing green, and the sound of saliva was endless.

The last winter melon ball soup is ready, a drop of oil in the small kitchen is not stained, the pots and pans are polished, as if they have not been used, and the kitchen waste has also been cleaned up, Tang Yu glanced at Gu Li, who was standing by the door and was a little stunned, and smiled: "Little Liu, what do you want?" Not hungry? Let's eat. Tang Yu handed the soup bowl to Gu Li and asked him to bring it over.

It was dark, and the six of them sat around the table by the light from the window, and everyone didn't know how long it had been since they had eaten their home-cooked food, and they were so excited that they didn't know how to start. Tang Yu personally poured wine for everyone, raised his glass, and said: "People say that ten years of cultivation can be crossed in the same boat, and a hundred years of cultivation can be spent sleeping together, our brothers have met to this day, it is fate and blessing, I am really happy to meet you guys." Yesterday I got the first pot of gold in your life, and today we moved from the migrant dormitory to the miscellaneous courtyard, and the progress is really not small, so we have to dry this glass of wine for this. ”

"Big brother is right, it's done!" Jin Wei said.

The six of them raised their glasses together and took a sip of the small cup and the second pot.

"Come, eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables!" Tang Yu Zhangluo.

After getting the order, the chopsticks all stretched out directly to the enoki mushrooms of the pork belly roll. Ji Xiaobei almost shed tears after taking a bite, and shouted: "It's so delicious!" Big brother, I love you to death! ”

Tang Yu's stomach and esophagus were burned by the wine, and seeing his brothers eating so deliciously, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Today, Tang Yu also had a little luxury, bought a bag of white sand, he leaned on the back of the chair, took out a dot from his pocket, took a deep breath, and then sprayed it out of his nose, the nostalgic taste, coupled with the anesthetic effect of alcohol, made Tang Yu's whole person fall into an extremely comfortable state.

Tang Yu noticed that Gu Li was eating slowly today, obviously having the intention to savor the meal he had carefully prepared, this detail made Tang Yu very moved, he remembered that his mother once said that people who can eat can also live and understand life, and his father is such a person. In my impression, his parents are very loving, and when they died, they were also front and back, and they both died of cancer, thinking about it from another angle, maybe they are the happiest couple in the world.

Shao Zifu, who was sitting beside Tang Yu, looked at Tang Yu, saw him in a daze at a certain position, and asked, "Big brother, why don't you eat?" ”

Tang Yu came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I ate a lot when I was cooking just now, I'm not too hungry, I'll smoke a cigarette first, leave me alone, and eat yours." ”

The person who cooks can be full when he smells the smell of oil smoke, not to mention that he does have the habit of tasting every dish during cooking, and it is strange that he is still hungry after tasting more than a dozen dishes. And Tang Yu has always only liked to cook, and he is not interested in eating itself, he can eat so much on the construction site because he is tired from work, he has not done any work in the past two days, and he has no body to consume, so naturally he has no appetite.

"Big brother, are you still smoking?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

"Well, it's been smoking for years." Tang Yu spit out the last puff of his eyes, twisted the cigarette, stood up and said, "You eat first." ”

"Why are you going?"

Tang Yu replied, "You'll find out later." ”

"Been smoking for years? Big brother is still a bad boy! Yan Shan said.

In fact, these boys willingly called Tang Yu a big brother, not only is he the oldest of the six, but the most important thing is that Tang Yu really feels like a big brother, he has a maturity that is not commensurate with his appearance and age, and he can't say that he has a strength, which is reassuring, convincing, and makes people want to rely on. This is a tacit understanding, tacit, and natural recognition.

Tang Yu went to the landlord, and when he came out of the door, he was holding a plastic lunch box in his hand, he went to the kitchen to tinker for a while, and brought out a plate of beautiful and strange things and put it on the table, "Eat." ”

Several people looked at each other, picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in their mouths, it tasted amazing!

"Big brother, what is this?"

Tang Yu crossed Erlang's legs and sneered: "Tu Baozi! ”

Born and raised, most of the Northeast people who have not come out to mix have never seen purple potatoes, which is also normal, when Tang Yu came back in the afternoon, he first steamed the purple potatoes, then crushed them into a paste, mixed with honey, put them in a small square box, and refrigerated them in the refrigerator of the landlord's house.

In his previous life, that bastard liked to eat this dessert he made the most......

Hey, I don't think about it anymore. Tang Yu pulled the bastard out of his head with all his might.

The purple sweet potato was quickly snatched up, and Ji Xiaobei almost licked the plate, he shouted: "Big brother! If a girl from any family marries you, she will die happily!! Or you take me, I'll live with you later. ”

The brothers all laughed at Ji Xiaobei, and then his words started a discussion.

Tang Yu just smiled, not participating in their topic, his eyes swept over Gu Li, and seeing that the other party was also looking at him, Tang Yu pushed him with his elbow and smiled: "How is it?" Brother didn't lie to you, did he? This meal, isn't it delicious? ”

"Well, you're good at cooking." Gu Li said lightly.

Tang Yu grabbed Gu Li's shoulder with the strength of wine, leaned into his ear and whispered: "In the future, my brother will cook food for you every day, and do it differently, okay?" ”

Gu Li glanced at Tang Yu, his eyes were not disgusted or displeased, anyway, it was not a good look, Tang Yu smiled and let go of his hand.

He noticed that Gu Li's ears were a little red, and smiled knowingly, it turned out that he had touched his sensitive area. It's just that Tang Yu can't be sure whether this kid is straight or curved, and he's afraid he needs to take time to confirm.

It doesn't matter if you're straight or curved, Lao Tzu has to get your hands on you. Tang Yu's stubborn and paranoid energy came up again, he knew that this was not good, but people are such complex animals, even if they are reborn, some of the characters and habits that are deeply rooted in the bone marrow are not so easy to change.

***

There is only one public bathroom in the courtyard, and you need to queue up to take a bath at night, and when everyone has finished washing, Gu Li is ready to wash.

When Tang Yu came back in the afternoon, he washed the newly bought vest and shorts and put them in the yard to dry, and they were dry in the evening, so he gave them to Gu Li and asked him to change them after taking a shower, Gu Li didn't expect that the clothes Tang Yu bought for him were very fitting, and it was estimated that they would fit better than he tried in person.

Tang Yu is an observant person. Gu Li had a new impression of Tang again. It's just that...... He's too accurate, isn't he? Gu Li was inexplicably a little awkward.

Gu Li walked into the hut and smelled a choking smell of flower dew, and his expression immediately became as cold and hard as an ice cube.

"There's no screen, I forgot to buy a mosquito net again, I have to go out and buy one tomorrow, let's deal with it for a night today, hey, you can also wipe some on your body." Tang Yu, who was applying flower water to his arms and legs, handed the bottle to Gu Li as he spoke.

Tang Yu was wearing a light gray hurdle vest and sports shorts, his lean arms and legs were exposed, and the unsunburned places were snow-white, in stark contrast to his sun-tanned wheat-colored face, and the white flowers were extremely dazzling under the fluorescent lamp.

Gu Li's face stretched long, and he pushed away the flower water bottle, "I don't need this." ”

"Not really? Then you will probably be bitten by mosquitoes all night. ”

Gu Li hurriedly glanced at Tang Yu, lay on the bed and said, "I don't recruit mosquitoes." ”

"So happy? Why do I attract mosquitoes so much? Is the root blood type related? Tang Yu muttered to himself.

Gu Li frowned and closed his eyes, but did not speak.

After Tang Yu finished his work, he found that Gu Li had already slept. He carefully sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Gu Li, scanning from the top of his head to his toes, and looked at it for a long time before he sighed and picked up the towel and was covered by Gu Li. He turned off the light, went to bed in the dark, and tossed for a long time before falling asleep.

Feeling that the man's breathing on his side gradually stabilized, Gu Li opened his eyes, he turned his head to look at Tang Yu, the clear sky outside the window and the bright moon, outlining the outline of Tang Yu's side very clearly and three-dimensionally, he frowned and stared at Tang Yu for a while, suddenly a breeze hit, and the pungent flower dew floated into Gu Li's nose, the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched, and his thoughts were out of control.

The fool is not stupid, and he doesn't remember what happened before, he would have been relieved. But seeing Tang Yu's heartless appearance now, Gu Li is not so calm.

Is it really like he said, his brain is beaten? But since he is so smart and remembers many things in the past, how can he forget something so important?

Forget it, it's better not to remember, and it's better not to remember it for the rest of your life.

***

If you want to set foot in the world of building materials, where to start is a big question.

At the construction site, Tang Yu met a lot of small package foremen, Chen Sheng is one of them, Chen Sheng is responsible for several construction site materials at the same time, Tang Yu learned from his mouth that there are often suppliers who can not supply materials on time and delay the construction period, Tang Yu told him at the time, and when he encounters this situation in the future, he can directly find him, he knows a lot of raw material suppliers, and the price is fair.

When Tang Yu said this, his face was not red, his heart was not beating, and his eyelids did not blink.

Tang Yu's idea at that time was to pull connections and cast a wide net, first of all, to make people feel that he was not an ordinary migrant worker, he was actually a person with a background. Let these people remember that there is still a person like him Tang Yu when they encounter problems, even if there is only a trace of possibility.

If you want to do business, you can't do without a mobile phone, Tang Yu spent 200 yuan to buy a second-hand mobile phone, bought cardboard paper, cut it into small pieces, and pulled Gu Li to write the contact information on the card with him and make a business card. The name of the company has also been given, and it is temporarily called "Brother Building Materials Company".

He runs around various construction sites every day, handing out business cards door-to-door to promote his company, just to get to know more construction site materials workers like Lao Wu Chensheng, if they have material needs, call him, and then he goes to the market to purchase, from which to earn a little difference.

He is an empty glove white wolf, which is what people often say now as buying short and selling short, in his previous life, Tang Yu called his current company "Leather Bag Company", and he left with his bag, and there was nothing.

He never thought that he would one day embark on this path.

Most of the materials workers in the construction site looked at the handwritten business card handed out by Tang Yu, and their faces showed undisguised disgust and distrust, which was expected by Tang Yu, Tang Yu did not mind, he said to them: "I just came back from the field, I didn't bring extra business cards, just borrowed in the supermarket downstairs cardboard and pen to write a contact information you use first, I have been doing it in the northeast before, and I want to move to the market in our capital in the near future, I have been doing engineering materials for many years, and I am considered an old qualification, and the price is still more advantageous. I hope you will consider our company and let me show you the quality of our services. ”

Although Tang Yu is tall and has a good figure, that face is in his early twenties, and if you only look at the appearance, these old rivers and lakes can't trust him at all, but Tang Yu's speech and demeanor are very mature man's spirit, and his attitude is also very humble, which makes people basically ignore his slightly youthful appearance and are willing to talk to him more.

But it's really just a few more words. They will ask Tang Yu to quote, and no matter what price Tang Yu quotes, they will reject Tang Yu with a sentence of "too high".

Although some material clerks are more interested in Tang Yu, they don't dare to hand over a larger deal to Tang Yu at the first time, so they want to let him send some small materials over first.

The material is really small, shovels, iron picks, copper and aluminum alloy welding rods, the amount of money is very small, it is not a business at all, and it is not possible to trouble Lao Wu for this little thing, Tang Yu ran to the building materials market to buy the materials that customers need to transport them to the construction site, tossed until dark, and got a price difference of 30 yuan, excluding the fare, and made a net profit of 24 yuan.

This is less than working on the construction site, but Tang Yu doesn't mind, after all, building a relationship with customers takes a relatively long process, this is just the beginning, and business will always get better.

Tang Yu's legs were straight at the end of the day, and when he went home, he went to the vegetable market by the way, and bought a lot of vegetables that were not sold during the day, and the price was cut, and a large bag of vegetables only cost four yuan, Tang Yu felt very beautiful in his heart, and found a way to save money and live a good life.

The brothers in the other two rooms are not at home, Yan Shan has been busy again in the past two days, and received a good invitation, although he is still an extra, but this time the scene is heavier than usual, there are lines, and there are several scenes to shoot, and he often doesn't go home until the second half of the night. Jin Wei officially went to work, his job is nothing more than standing guard at the gate, and there are several people in shifts, which is very relaxed, that is, stay away from where he lives, plus the traffic jam during the off-duty time, it takes an hour and a half to get home by bus. Ji Xiaobei was introduced by Lao Wu and found a job as a salesman in a real estate agency company, but he didn't understand anything at first, he needed to follow the old man to get familiar with the business, and he had to accompany the customer to see the house every night, and Tang Yu hadn't seen him for two days in a row.

And Shao Zifu ...... Hey, a few people mentioned him, all sighed fiercely, no one knows what this kid is thinking in his head all day long, don't look for a job, he knows to go to various antique markets, second-hand markets, major historical sites and attractions to hang out, just hang out, he will buy what he likes when he sees it, and he will spend all the money in his pocket in just a few days, and he will reach out to borrow money from his brothers, and then rub the rice, but he doesn't feel embarrassed at all, and he is very at ease.

Tang Yu mentioned to Shao Zifu about finding a job, but Shao Zifu only said that he was measured and asked him not to worry about it.

The young man has his own ideas, and Tang Yu is inconvenient to ask too much, in fact, compared to others, Tang Yu is most concerned about Gu Li, this kid stays at home all day, either staring at the wall in a daze, or holding a book to read. Tang Yu asked him if he wanted to go to school, he said no, and asked him if he wanted to find a job, and he also said no. Tang Yu asked him what he wanted to do, and he said that he wanted to be alone for a while.

Tang Yu could see that this kid had something on his mind, but he never had a heart-to-heart with anyone, and Tang Yu didn't know how to enlighten him. Now he can only wait for him to figure it out for himself. I said before that I would let the kid do it with him, but Tang Yu's business here has just started, and he doesn't need manpower for the time being, Tang Yu originally felt embarrassed, afraid that Gu Li would think that he was not trustworthy and loved to brag. But now it seems that his worries are unnecessary.

Tang Yu finished the meal, and as soon as he set up the dishes and chopsticks in the small courtyard, Gu Li walked out of the house.

Tang Yu smiled, this child is only very active when eating.

This kid just woke up, frowning and looking sleepy-eyed, Tang Yu asked with a smile: "Little Liu, have you washed up?" ”

"Nope."

"Let's wash and get ready for dinner."

Gu Li let out a "hmm", glanced at the dining table, and walked towards the sink.

Tang Yu took a towel, lit a cigarette, leaned against the wall and watched Gu Li wash his body in the yard.

The pillar of smoke smoked Tang Yu's eyes into a slit, and his gaze swept over every detail of Gu Li's body, even the water flowing down his spine, because he knew where the water ended up. Just look at the back of your pants and see how wet they look.

Tang Yu thought, I don't know if he will grow up? I feel that I have grown a few centimeters since I met him, and it is a good thing to be tall, but the difference between each other's height is getting more and more, and it is not me who has grown taller, will it be awkward to be together in the future?

With such a tall and physical daughter-in-law, Tang Yu felt that Yali was very big.

The position is too high, I'm afraid I can't reach it.

Tang Yu's eyes stared at Li's stiff buttocks, and he began to think crankily.

As soon as Gu Li turned around after washing, he saw Tang Yu staring at him, and his brows furrowed. Tang Yu reacted quickly, and hurriedly pulled his gaze back, as if the staring just now was just a glance, he threw the towel to him, "Wipe it." ”

He pinched out his cigarette and ate with all his might.

Gu Li stared at Tang Yu's back, dried his hair, put on his shirt, and sat down at the dinner table.

Four dishes and one soup, as usual.

It's just that the dishes change every day, as Tang Yu said, he really changes every day to make for himself.

The two sat at the table and ate, Gu Li has always been silent, and Tang Yu spoke alone. However, Tang Yu rarely mentions things at work, and will pick out some more interesting things to tell Gu Li, and sometimes he can't help but add oil and vinegar to it, just to amuse Gu Li.

But it's a pity that Tang Yu rarely succeeds, and from the day he met Gu Li until now, he has laughed only a handful of times. The young man's smile was very charming, and he really wanted to take a few more looks, so Tang Yu always tried his best to make him laugh.

For example, now, Tang Yu couldn't help but rattle when he spoke, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes, but the other party just looked at him silently, as if he was a monkey, and the other party was watching a play.

This unlucky kid.

Tang Yu ate the last bite of food in the bowl, took out a small notebook from his pocket, and began to take notes, and after a while he said: "Little Liu, I took it myself after eating, washed the dishes and chopsticks, my brother is busy." ”

Gu Li glanced at Tang Yu, didn't say anything, put away the dishes and chopsticks after eating, tinkled in the kitchen for a while, took the rag and wiped the table clean, and then took a change of clothes to take a bath.

As soon as Gu Li came out of the house, Tang Yu quickly stood up and walked to the door to take a look at the kitchen, and the corners of his mouth that were originally smiling collapsed on the spot.

The plates and bowls were stacked crookedly, the bowls were still stained with oil, they were greasy to touch, the water was not poured when they brushed the pot, and the brushes, shovels, and rags were thrown into a pot, which was even more miserable than the way he had just finished cooking......

Tang Yu held his forehead, I'm afraid the young man hasn't worked at home, right? Isn't he an orphan? How did you get over the years?

Tang Yu remembered that Gu Li washed clothes two days ago, which was similar to the current situation. The clothes full of stains were not carefully scrubbed at all, but they were hung up after a few scratches, and they didn't know how to rinse the laundry detergent with clean water.

Although I can do anything, but in the future, if I really find such a man who can't speak, can't work, and has a cold temperament as a daughter-in-law, it's not a matter of life for a long time.

Tang Yu felt that for the sake of the happy life of the two in the future, he had to adjust-teach-teach Xiao Liuzi in a timely manner.
