Big Brother Yu didn't lie, Xiao Bailou's big bone broth was delicious, and the sesame baked cakes were also delicious, Tang Lin drank 3 bowls of soup and ate 12 baked cakes, and the eyes of the waiters who watched it were green.
Tang Lin didn't care, he was practicing himself now that he was free, and he didn't care much about Peng Ning's careful tricks. Life is unpredictable, but now he has an opportunity to seize it. If he doesn't get in and out of the two doors in front of him, then he can really pee on his own and drown himself.
So he didn't take breakfast seriously when he went out!
So when he brought a steaming take-out bone broth and a few baked cakes to the fishing brother, he was willing to gamble and lose, and his mood was as refreshing as the sun on the other side of the bridge.
"Hehe, why did you buy me a copy? Don't you say that if you win, my fish will be yours, and if you lose, you will eat two more bowls? "Brother Yu didn't actually be polite to him, he didn't seem to eat much in the morning, so he grabbed the baked cake and ate it.
Nodding while eating, "Well, the oil and salt are exactly the taste I like!" I can't get enough of the baked cakes in this little white building, I've been eating them for decades! ”
But Tang Lin has already left with a smile, everyone is a stranger, why do you have to know each other when you meet? And Tang Lin has always been a fair person, a bet must be a bet on both sides, otherwise it is not a bet.
He waved his big hand, "Pull my teacher over to eat tomorrow morning, today I drank 3 bowls of bone broth and ate 12 oil and salt baked cakes, haha"
Then get on the bus and return to the villa, which took a little over 1 hour. And the four members of the Peng family here have already finished eating, and it seems that they are preparing to go out, Tang Lin didn't know his arrangements to go back to Peng Guoxing, so he thought that the whole family was going out together. But Peng Xiaoping called him alone.
"Tang Lin, you drive, I'm going to see the newly opened gambling stone market, I heard it's very interesting."
Tang Lin nodded, and then subconsciously looked at Peng Guoxing, Peng Guoxing waved his hand happily, "We won't go, there are other arrangements, hehe" Tang Lin knew that what he had been worried about was coming, it seemed that the women of the Peng family were going to start going through the hall one by one, but he still had a calm smile on his face.
Longdaihe was originally the most lively seafood market and seafood souvenir market, but generally this kind of excitement starts from the May Day Golden Week, although in recent years there is a three-day holiday on May Day, but even from the climatic reasons, it is the same, will not change. Because Longdaihe is a summer resort, the summer vacation must not be done until summer, right? In winter, when you go to Longdaihe, it is not a summer retreat, it is to find a freezing, the wind on the seaside is not generally big in winter, that is, it is now the spring time at the end of March, and the wind is still strong!
There is always no wind and three feet of waves on the sea, and there are winds and waves that are even greater. Tang Lin likes the sea from the bottom of his heart, and on the way to the gambling stone market, they still take the seaside road, the seaside road extends to the west, if the eastern section of the seaside road can see the bay of the whole city, the atmosphere is majestic, and it no longer reminds you where you are all the time. Then the seaside road to the west is winding and evergreen, and the bay on this side seems to be calmer than the east side, and even slightly lighter in color.
Tang Lin was in a good mood, anyway, he had already prepared for the Peng family's woman to operate on him alone. Peng Xiaoping sat in the back seat, behind the co-pilot, because in this way she could observe Tang Lin's expression very well. She found that Tang Lin was not nervous at all, just like no one, but on the contrary, he was not in a good mood.
Tang Lin is in a good mood, Peng Xiaoping will not be in a good mood, originally she planned to pull his face to give him a horse, so that he would be afraid first, but now it seems to be useless.
So she had to tell the truth, "Tang Lin, even in front of my family, I have always said that I have never been in contact with you, and I don't evaluate you, Xiao Ning and Ning Ning's impression of you is their business." So you can tell me now, what did you think when you entered the Peng family? I want to hear the truth, if you are looking for high-sounding reasons and excuses, then you don't have to say it, I'm not interested in hearing it. ”
Tang Lin nodded, looked ahead, and thought about it, since Peng Xiaoping took the initiative to talk to him, then talk, he has nothing to hide, he can tell the truth in front of Peng Xiaoping.
His impression of Peng Xiaoping is definitely better than that of Peng Xiaoning and Peng Ning's mother and daughter, because in his opinion, Peng Xiaoping is a teacher, at least fair, and complete fairness is unlikely, but Peng Xiaoping is relatively cherished of his feathers, and he is relatively not as insidious as Peng Xiaoning and Peng Ning as unreasonable.
"Teacher Peng, in fact, you should think about it, this qiē is not my initiative, with my background and current identity, I can't reach the level of teacher even if I want to climb up. Mr. Peng, you know, I am a person that General Huang Xingye likes, because I was born in the army, but I stayed in the army so well that I never thought of leaving. But the reality is that I took off my military uniform and returned to a somewhat unfamiliar city, and I didn't have the face to go back to my hometown county, so I could only go to a strange city to work alone. At first, I worked as a laborer on the side of the road because I was young, strong, and able to endure hardships. I don't want to trade my Army Academy diploma for a job as a security guard at a janitorial home, I'd rather work as a coolie on the side of the road......"
"Then I was lucky enough to be selected by a city leader to become a driver, and then I took the civil service exam and became an inspector policeman. Then I came to Jiujing City with the other three colleagues for training, Mr. Peng, what do you think I can have extra ideas? I can't even figure out how I left the army. I didn't violate discipline, I didn't break the law, I didn't make a mistake, why did you fire me? It wasn't until General Huang Xingye suddenly went to see me at the training center two days ago that I realized that I had taken off my military uniform for another important purpose. Then General Huang recommended me to the teacher, and now it's ......"
"I'm not complaining or asking Mr. Peng, but I'm a soldier, and I still think of myself as a soldier when I don't wear a military uniform, and a soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty. General Huang gave me an order, and I will resolutely carry it out. So, the answer I can give to Mr. Peng is that I don't have any other ideas, I'm just carrying out orders! ”
Tang Lin's answer surprised Peng Xiaoping, she didn't expect Tang Lin to be completely frank to him, she thought that Tang Lin would definitely play the emotional card or pretend to be pitiful or something. But he didn't, he spoke very frankly about his life experience for more than half a year. Peng Xiaoping even suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was really a reliable person.
At least the first is pragmatic, and the second is down-to-earth. Third, true. She does not doubt the authenticity of Tang Lin's words, she has been a teacher for almost 20 years, and she can still easily distinguish whether young people are telling the truth or lying in front of her.
So after Tang Lin finished speaking, she was silent for a while and did not respond immediately. Then I looked out the window at the sea, which was beginning to calm down and began to become peaceful.
"This sea is called the West Sea, in fact, it is our own name, it is beautiful in the summer, and the water that drives through the entire bay here is as clear and clean as a big mirror, which makes people feel so happy that they can't bear to talk loudly. Tang Lin, I don't believe what you said, it's just that every family has its own traditions and habits. My father suffered a great blow after the untimely death of the last closed disciple, and he was sad for three or four years, and he only looked indifferent in the last two years. I'm not saying what you will do, I don't mean anything else, it's just that my father is the kind of person who either doesn't accept disciples, and if he does, he will definitely do his best, even more caring and caring than for our daughters. But my father is old, and the results of this year's physical examination are not optimistic, we don't know you first, and second, you have had conflicts with my sister and niece, so in principle, I don't agree with you to enter the Peng family. ”
Peng Xiaoping still truthfully expressed his inner thoughts, and it was very simple, without detouring, to be honest, Tang Lin felt a little uncomfortable. Everyone has a heart, but now Peng Xiaoping is a little unkind. But she also has to thank God for telling him the truth.
This can be regarded as a disguised respect for him.
The gambling stone market is coming soon, for the gambling stone, Tang Lin has some understanding, because he was more fascinated by this kind of books when he was in the university library, the reality is that now there are more and more gambling stones in China, and a huge industry has been formed, big gambling can be small and small, but more or tourists like buying welfare lottery tickets to try to be happy.
Longdaihe's gambling stone market has just emerged, the scale is not big or small, Tang Lin has not been to the gambling stone market much, this is the second time, the second time.
The first time was when they relaxed and followed their comrades after a mission.
Gambling stone or gambling goods actually refers to the jadeite when it is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapped, it is impossible to know the quality of the jadeite, and the quality of the jadeite must be cut before it can be known, so it is full of fun and also risky.
The jadeite produced by the old factory has skin, but the water stone jadeite produced in the riverbed is also the old factory jade, and the skin is very thin or skinless. Most of the jadeite produced in the new factory has no skin, but it is produced in the slope layer. The thickness of the skin depends mainly on the height of the weathering process, and the higher the weathering process, the thicker the skin.
The skin of a piece of jadeite raw material is colored, the surface is very good, and the green is seen when the first knife is cut, but the green is not there when the second knife is cut, which is also a common thing. Where you leave the jade mine, the gambling rate is only 1 in 10,000, and the probability of gambling in the jade mine is much higher. Gamble to rise and get rich overnight, but the vast majority end in failure.
Is Peng Xiaoping in front of him just playing or a big connoisseur?
Tang Lin was actually thinking more about this issue.
