I knocked on the door, and soon the white sister-in-law opened the door. The smell of oil smoke came to her face, and the white sister-in-law seemed to be stir-frying with an apron, and when she saw me as me, she immediately greeted me with a smile as if she had seen a savior.

"It's Qiao'er! Come in quickly, I still have guests at home, I'm worried about what to cook, you're here, help me quickly! It just so happens that you are having lunch here. ”

I hurriedly said, "Then I'll help you finish frying, I'll leave, in fact, I want to get that pot of cactus back!" ”

"Let you leave after finishing your work, what have I become, I have something else to say to you, when you eat, you are discussing the matter of loading the goods, you can come in first." She pulled me in.

When I entered the door, I saw a man in his thirties, wearing a blue tracksuit, sitting in the living room, holding a cigarette in one hand, and reading a newspaper in the other.

Hearing the sound of the doorway, the man also raised his head, his gaze met mine, and a pair of sharp eyes immediately swept over my body, his gaze made people feel very uncomfortable, as if he was examining a prisoner.

Sister-in-law Bai said: "His name is Ma Bin, he works at our police station here, and he has been my friend for many years. This is Wang Qiaozhen from our village, and I hired her to do the work. ”

The man stood up and walked over to me and held out his hand: "Hello." ”

I bowed my head in agreement, and stretched out my hand, which was strong and rough.

I thought to myself, no wonder he looked at me like this, it turned out that he was working at the police station. Gao Tiansheng's father also works at the police station, I don't know if they know each other?

She smiled: "Qiao'er's cooking is delicious, you just wait to eat!" ”

Ma Bin didn't mean to be polite, nodded and sat back to continue reading the newspaper.

My sister-in-law and I came to the kitchen, and she closed the door and whispered to me: "Our stall, if there is no one I know to help me, I don't worry, in case there is a bastard or something, it will be bad, so I Ma Bin helped us." He will definitely help us. ”

"Well, I can see that the relationship between the two of you is good, and he and you are not outsiders."

The white sister-in-law smiled: "That's! I've known him for several years. His wife died, and if Ma Bin didn't have time on a business trip, her girl would eat at my side, just opposite the elementary school. ”

Standing in front of the kitchen window, just across the street from the school gate of a small school, it's just that today is the weekend and no one is there.

I nodded: "It turns out that he lost his wife." ”

"Not really! My daughter is eight years old, in the second grade, he is very good, he works hard, but he is not very good at talking, how about it, if you like him, let me introduce you? ”

I blushed: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me!" I don't want to deal with anyone right now, I just want to do a good job. ”

Sister-in-law Bai smiled and patted my buttocks: "You don't have to be embarrassed, you are such a good talent, I want to introduce you as soon as I see a good person." If you meet someone you like, just tell me, and my sister-in-law will help you say it, and it will definitely be done. ”

I knew she was joking, and she just smiled and didn't speak.

Sister-in-law Bai said: "This kitchen is too small, I can't stand still, you still cook, I'll talk to him." ”

"Go ahead, I'll do it alone."

When my sister-in-law left, I saw that she had fried peanuts just now, but most of them were not cooked, so I put it in the pot and fried it again, divided it into two bowls, one bowl with sugar and one bowl with salt. Her steamed eggplant was also half-cooked, so she used the sauce eggplant made of sauce with a little chili, and the aroma was instantly overflowing. My kitchen is rich in ingredients, with dried tofu, cucumbers, cold noodles mixed with cold vegetables, topped with meat foam and chili oil, and a fish stew.

Sister-in-law Bai smiled in that room and said, "It's so fragrant, when will you eat?" ”

"Right now!" I turned off the gas stove and said with a smile, "Wash your hands and eat!" ”

Filling the table with dishes, I smiled and said, "Then if it's okay, I'll leave first?" ”

Sister-in-law Bai pressed me the seat: "You kid! said that I wouldn't let you go, and sat down to eat honestly. I have something to tell you. ”

Ma Bin didn't speak, just put a pair of chopsticks neatly in front of me with a serious face, he didn't look at me, but I was still very embarrassed.

Everyone started to eat, Ma Bin kept eating peanuts, he liked to eat salty food, and after a while, he went down halfway.

"Qiao'er, who taught you this meal, it's really a must, why don't you open a restaurant? I'll sponsor you. ”

I hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law Bai, don't scare me, I can only cook some home-cooked food, and I have never seen those serious dishes." ”

Ma Bin coughed a few times: "Don't be joking, let's be serious." ”

"Oh, that's it?"

Ma Bin said: "Don't be joking. The girl is thin-skinned. ”

In fact, he has been looking at me since he entered the door, but it made me very embarrassed, I felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't explain why I felt this way. I always feel like he's been paying attention to me.

The white sister-in-law pursed her lips and smiled, and then said to me, "Qiao'er, tell me, what do you want to go to tomorrow?" ”

I thought for a moment and said, "There are a lot of people who sell fruit to visit patients in the hospital, so it's better to order the big apples that sell well." They don't care if it's delicious or not, the main thing is that it looks good, and they also order bananas and hawthorn on top. ”

"Hawthorn?" Sister-in-law Bai frowned and said: "Hawthorn has always been small in quantity, so it costs five or six a pound for a piece!" It's not easy to sell, right? Such a rare fruit, those rich double workers are reluctant to buy it, and if they buy it, they will lose a lot of money. ”

I smiled and said: "I've inquired, the workers and hospitals here are all paid these days, they have rich money in their hands, they will buy a little for the sake of their children, and the hawthorn has been put for a long time, even if it can't be sold, I can boil it into canned hawthorn, and it won't be unsold." ”

Sister-in-law Bai looked at me in surprise: "Ah! You're very observant! ”

"I've been in the village for the past few days, and I've been thinking about how to do business well when I have time."

"Okay, promising. I was right. Sister-in-law Bai nodded with a smile and gave me an envelope: "This is the money for the fruit, you can remember it clearly for me one by one." It's two hundred dollars, and if you miscalculate, I won't be able to agree. ”

"I know." I took it carefully.

Ma Bin looked at her, as if he wanted to say something, but he still held back.

Sister-in-law Bai smiled and pushed him: "Don't worry! I'm not a big bad wolf, I won't eat the white rabbit! If I don't believe in Qiao'er, I can't use her. ”

Ma Bin coughed a few times: "Let's eat, this joke is really not interesting." ”

I reluctantly ate a few more chopsticks, then stood up and took my leave.

Sister-in-law Bai knew my character and didn't keep me anymore.

Before leaving, she took out the small pot of cactus balls from the balcony of the bedroom and gave it to me: "Take it back, your baby." ”

I hurriedly took it, and after a few days, it seemed to grow a little bigger, and the color became more beautiful. My hand gently touched the small thorn on it, and my heart was very happy.

"I'm also leaving, there's something else going on in the unit!" Ma Bin also came out at this time.

Sister-in-law Bai smiled: "It just so happens that the two of you are walking together." It's none of my business! ”

I was very nervous, but my sister-in-law didn't care about me and had already closed the door. I could only walk down the stairs with Ma Bin one after the other, and no one said anything along the way. He was indeed a man of few words.

When I got to the door, I looked at him in the opposite direction and said, "Well, we'll see you again." ”

"Wang Qiaozhen!" He stopped me, and after a while he said, "Do a good job, and if there's anything, tell me." ”

I nodded, and watched him walk a long way away, and then I let out a long sigh of relief. The tone of this man's speech has always been commanding, very serious.

I returned to the house that my sister-in-law prepared for me, cleaned up briefly, I put the pot of cactus on the windowsill, looked at it carefully, and then suddenly sighed, it's useless to think about it.

Before you know it, it's evening. So that I could go up in time for the fruit tomorrow morning, I went to bed early.

The thought that tomorrow will be my official day of work makes me a little nervous and more excited.
