Lin Zhengdao looked at his son and nephew, and said with a loving smile on his face: "Okay, one bowl of beef noodles per person, plus one beef, so that you can eat enough at one time!" ”

Lin Fan really didn't feel interested in this ramen in his heart, but the current strong family affection, even if it was to give him leftovers, it was better than the delicacies of the mountains and seas!

The three of them arrived at the ramen restaurant together, and Lin Zhengdao said to the waiter: "Two bowls of beef noodles, one bowl of green vegetable noodles, and one more beef to the beef noodles!" ”

Lin Fan and Lin Lei found a place to sit down, and when they heard that Lin Zhengdao only needed a bowl of green vegetable noodles, his heart was gloomy again, the life of the second uncle's family seemed to be quite poor, but thinking about it, the family was in the countryside, and they all relied on those few acres of land to live, and it was basically difficult to have a surplus except for the harvest in the field, not to mention that the cousin was still studying, which was a big burden.

After the noodles were served, Lin Fan and Lin Lei gave the beef in their bowls to Lin Zhengdao at the same time, but Lin Zhengdao refused, he said with a straight face: "You guys eat, young people are growing up, I'm not reluctant to give up this money, I really don't like to eat beef, I went out a few years ago, what haven't I eaten?" Not to mention beef, even sea cucumber and abalone have eaten a lot! ”

Lin Lei seemed to have heard a lot of Lin Zhengdao's words, and said: "Dad, you say abalone and sea cucumber every day, how delicious is it?" ”

Lin Zhengdao: "It tastes great, and it's all lean meat, not fat at all, you don't know when I was out and about, I often eat these things, even after eating noodles, I have to cut some abalone shredded meat and put it in, I eat too much, and I get tired!" ”

Lin Fan was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he was all thin, is this abalone and sea cucumber or pork?

Lin Fan pulled the beef in the bowl, deliberately frowned and said, "Oops, I forgot, I've been feeling unwell recently, and the doctor said to avoid it, you can't eat beef!" ”

Lin Zhengdao and Lin Lei stopped their chopsticks at the same time and asked, "Xiaofan, are you unwell?" What is the situation? ”

Lin Fan said: "It's not a big problem, I have skin allergies, second uncle, you still help me solve this beef, I don't dare to eat it!" ”

Lin Zhengdao hesitated for a moment and said, "You really can't eat it?" ”

Lin Fan nodded affirmatively, and Lin Zhengdao said, "Then it's all for your cousin." ”

Lin Lei shook his head and said: "I can't eat it, I can't eat it, such a big bowl of noodles, my stomach will be round if I eat it again, and I still have to attend the party." ”

Lin Zhengdao took the beef that Lin Fan brought over, and devoured a few bites, and couldn't tell that he didn't like to eat beef.

"Big brother, why did you come to the ancient city today because of this party?"

Lin Lei swallowed a mouthful of noodles and said: "Yes, junior high school reunion, by the way, Xiaofan was also with you in the afternoon, and they couldn't contact you, so they notified me, I thought you had something to do in Zhonghai, so I didn't call you specifically, but now that you're back, let's go together." ”

Junior high school classmates? Lin Fan thought about it, there were no more familiar faces in his memory, it was too long, there were no mobile phones in that era, and many people didn't even have a phone at home, and then they lost contact, this kind of gathering Lin Fan really lacked interest, but Lin Lei said it, and he had to accept it.

With the second uncle, even if Lin Fan has money, he will not rush to pay, it will hurt the face of the second uncle, for a person like the second uncle, face is much more important than the inside.

followed the second uncle and Lin Lei to a clothing store, and Lin Fan knew why the two would meet on the commercial street, it turned out that the second uncle was going to take his cousin to buy clothes. It seems that the love of face is also genetic, for this party, the second uncle is going to fill in the equipment for the cousin, although the economic conditions of the second uncle's family are not good, but the cousin's dress from childhood to adulthood has always been one of the best among the little friends in the family, and the second uncle's family pays attention to eating bran and vegetables, but also dressing decently.

Adi, Nike still dare not enter, I really can't afford to consume, but Lin Zhengdao is very good at choosing clothes, and the clothes he chose for Lin Lei are not a brand, there is no inflated price, and the texture is good, and it is very stylish to wear, coupled with Lin Lei's handsome appearance, it attracts the attention of young girls.

Lin Zhengdao looked at it with satisfaction, and then looked back at Lin Fan, only to find that his nephew was also dressed very fashionably and decently, people want clothes, Buddha relies on gold clothes, Lin Fan stood there with polite words, elegant and handsome, and completely inherited the excellent genes of the old Lin family.

"Xiaofan, you can pick one too!" , Lin Zhengdao put one hand in his trouser pocket, took down the few remaining banknotes with his hand, and said to Lin Fan with a forced smile, bring your nephew, it's not good not to buy one for your nephew, even if there is no food at home, Lin Zhengdao has to save face.

Lin Lei was also very generous to this younger brother, and he didn't know that his father was already poor and pitiful, so he also said on the side: "Yes, Xiaofan, you can also pick one, and wear it at the afternoon party." ”

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "No need, thank you, second uncle, I have a lot of clothes, don't break the bank, or let's go first." ”

Lin Zhengdao sighed that Lin Fan had grown up and sensible, and at the same time, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he really wanted to fill in two things for Lin Fan, one was afraid that he would not have enough money and would be embarrassed on the spot, and when he returned home, he was afraid that he would have to go to the neighborhood again.

"What time is the meeting?" , Out of the door of the clothing store, Lin Fan asked Lin Lei.

Lin Lei said: "I don't know very well, I just know that it is afternoon, where I will call the old squad leader to ask." ”

Old squad leader? Lin Fan's memory floodgates opened suddenly, many years ago, when I first saw the green and watery girl, she was wearing a ponytail, combing a sea in front of her, with a smooth jade face and a high spirit, while Lin Fan hummed "There is a girl named Xiaofang in the village, who is good-looking and kind", so the two passed by side and turned back in unison, the ignorant good feelings of the teenagers and girls are always inseparable from a good first impression.

Many years have passed, and everyone has lost contact with each other, I don't know where the original "old squad leader" went, but I heard that she was admitted to Peking University and became a veritable high-achieving student, and a "bastard" like herself naturally has a different circle from her, and the lives of the two are completely two parallel lines, with no intersection.

Lin Lei said: "Let's go, Xiaofan, let's go to the public phone booth to call the 'old squad leader' and ask where to meet?" ”

Lin Fan stopped Lin Lei and said, "Use my phone to call." After speaking, he handed his mobile phone to Lin Lei.

Lin Fan took the phone in surprise, and Lin Zhengdao on the side also frowned and looked over.

"Xiaofan, you buy a mobile phone, do your parents know?"

Lin Fan knew that the second uncle was worried that he was misusing the money, so he hurriedly explained: "My parents know, second uncle, don't worry." ”

Lin Zhengdao still said: "You are still in school, where do you use this thing, although your parents are at the grassroots level, but the income is average, you can't compare with outsiders." ”

Lin Fan didn't distinguish either, nodded seriously, and his attitude was very correct, so that Lin Zhengdao felt comfortable. (To be continued.) )
