Chapter 20: Fellow Countryman
Taking off his helmet, a clear glimmer of light shone in through the door.
It's already 5 a.m.
In winter, it was not early in the morning, but it was unusually mild, and a trace of cool air blew in through the door, and Lin Jie hurriedly pulled the gray old scarf.
"It's so cold...... Lin Jie shuddered, locked the machine, locked the helmet in the cabinet, and went to the toilet in a gloomy manner.
At this point, when players are selling equipment in the town or taking a break offline, many students take off their helmets and fall asleep directly on the recliner behind them, and many are still struggling in the game.
After solving the personal matter, Lin Jie went out to buy some breakfast by the way.
Outside the Feiyang Internet café is a snack street, after all, it is around the school, everything will be missing, and there is never a lot of food sold.
"Boss, the same old way." Lin Jie passed by the breakfast shop and shouted.
I have eaten breakfast here for more than 1 year, and the boss is also extremely careful, Lin Jie usually comes out to buy breakfast at this point, so he will prepare it in advance.
"Okay, wait a while, I'll come right away......" A thin female voice came from the store, and I saw a girl with a little messy hair running out in a hurry, picking up the breakfast that had been packed on the table, and running to Lin Jie with staggering steps, blushing and saying hurriedly: "I'm sorry, my dad is sick and can't get up for the time being." ”
Lin Jie glanced at the girl in front of him, compared to the so-called temperament beauties in the school, this girl is really beautiful, her eyes are bright, her long hair reaches her waist, and the blush on her face when she speaks is even more pleasing to the eye.
Lin Jie took the 3 meat buns and a cup of soy milk that had been packed, and asked suspiciously, "Isn't the boss in good health?" What's sick? ”
The girl's eyes darkened, "I don't know, a doctor came to see me last night, and said that he needed to be hospitalized." ”
"Then go!" Lin Jie was a little puzzled.
"My dad won't let me." The girl sighed, glanced back at the store, and said, "He asked me to keep the money so that I wouldn't ...... Alas, nothing. ”
"I'll take a look." Lin Jie took out a meat bun, took two bites and swallowed it, and walked towards the store.
The owner of this breakfast shop is a city and a county with himself, but he is not in the same township, and it is extremely lucky to meet a fellow villager in Hangzhou, and Lin Jie has eaten breakfast here for one and a half years, never a day off.
The girl sighed and followed closely behind Lin Jie.
Lin Jie walked into the house, the layout of the breakfast shop is very simple, that is, set up a small bed around the table where soy milk and flour are placed for himself to sleep, and the rest of the place is full of raw materials, as for washing his face and brushing his teeth, it is solved by the faucet outside.
The boss, who is nearly 50 years old, is lying on a small bed, because the bed is small, he can only bow his body, but his kind face only frowns, and he snorts from time to time.
"Boss." Lin Jie sat down and shouted softly.
The boss opened his eyes and raised his hand slightly, even if he had said hello, "Your breakfast is ready, and my daughter didn't give it to you?" ”
"Here it is, I'm done eating." Lin Jie said that the boss's face was sallow, and his left hand was covering his belly, which must be a symptom of internal organs.
"I'm fine, Xiaojie, you can come over and help my daughter after work later, she can't do it alone." The boss said, coughing twice and closing his eyes, "I'll sleep for a while." ”
Lin Jie nodded, "Okay, don't worry." ”
After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door, pinched the buns and soy milk in his hands by the way, glanced at the girl, and said domineeringly, "I'll come over later, you can watch in the store." ”
The girl looked at Lin Jie's back and muttered, "Uh, isn't this my father's shop?" This man...... It's weird. ”
Lin Jie swallowed a few meat buns, sucked all the soy milk in one gulp, and stood at the door of the Internet café for a long time before he made up his mind to walk in and knocked on the door of Feiyang's studio.
No movement?
Lin Jie kicked in, this is the rule of Internet cafes, because when playing games, it is rare to turn on the external induction, so kicking the door or something is commonplace.
Chu Feifei was wearing a helmet, trembling regularly, indicating the rise of killing in the game.
"Boss, I'll discuss something with you." Lin Jie knocked on Chu Feifei's helmet.
"You haven't gotten off work yet, you have to go to the toilet quickly, breakfast will be solved for me in 15 minutes, don't bother me if you have nothing else." Chu Feifei's speech speed is extremely fast, and if she has to answer in the game, it will affect her own behavior.
Lin Jie said embarrassedly, "I want to ask for leave, anyway, there aren't many people in the morning, right?" I have a fellow who has something to ......."
"No need to talk." Chu Feifei said directly, "Did you ask the old lady to go to the store if you asked for leave?" Don't bother me, I'm leveling up, it's only level 4 and close to level 5 now, alas, it's really slow. ”
Lin Jie was speechless, when is this still showing off......
"How do I get me to take a leave of absence?"
"The level is more than me, you can play how you like, and the salary will be paid! Do you have time to play though? Xiaolinzi? Chu Feifei's temper has also come up, Lin Jie is unreasonable, so it's no wonder she.
Young man, just press it.
Who knows, Lin Jie actually nodded seriously, "Then I'll go." ”
"Hey! Lin Jie! Chu Feifei shouted, and at this time, Lin Jie had already turned around and went out, leaving a dashing back.
"Grass!" Chu Feifei shouted.
"Fei Fei, what are you doing? Speed upgrade, now it's one of you missing, and when it reaches level 5, let's hurry up and open a dungeon. A swarthy middle-aged man on the other side said.
Chu Feifei gritted her teeth and continued to fight.
As for the group of students...... Anyway, they are also reserved for the night, so they don't need to return the machine, and the other guests just hang it.
Chu Feifei is not a business material.
Lin Jie ran towards the breakfast shop.
The so-called fellow sees the fellow, can help it, not to mention that the boss in his most difficult time, but also sponsored himself for a full 1 month of breakfast, every day is the standard configuration, meat buns and soy milk, but also afraid that they will not be used to eating, every day to change pork and beef two different fillings.
Lin Jie hesitated for a while, took out his mobile phone, and dialed 120.
It's not always a problem if the boss gets sick.
In this day and age, it doesn't cost much to cure a disease. As long as a certain amount of 'future insurance' is deducted, and if the 'future insurance' is not collected before you die, you can withdraw 30% and pass it on to the next generation.
'Future insurance' can be regarded as a benefit given by the state to civilians.
The conservative old people hope to save it, and after they get old, they can also leave a sum of money for their children.
Old man, it's all this idea.
After dialing 120, Lin Jie calculated the deducted 'future insurance' on his head.
When he arrived at the breakfast shop, Lin Jie began to get busy after entering the store, steaming steamed buns, boiling soy milk, and adding white sugar to each bowl in advance...... Well done.
The girl watched Lin Jie busy with her work, but she was a little overwhelmed.
Lin Jie raised his eyelids and said with a smile, "You're not from this school, are you?" ”
The girl muttered softly, "I'm a ...... from Zhejiang University in the city center."
"Oh, no wonder it doesn't look like ours in the suburbs." Lin Jie snorted, this girl is a top student of Zhejiang University, no wonder she rarely comes back, this kind of good student is probably studying hard, how can she care about her parents? Hehe...... Lin Jie was already a little heartfelt in his heart, "You go and let the soybean milk bucket cool down, the students here don't like to drink too hot." ”
"Oh...... Good. The girl squeezed all kinds of utensils with her hands and feet, and finally blushed, "I...... I don't know how to get it. ”
Lin Jie frowned and waved his hand, "Stay aside, you go to the front to collect the money, and if you want something, you will turn around and call me." ”
The girl lowered her head and walked to the door.
At this time, a student happened to get up early to buy breakfast, pointed to the cage, and handed over a bill, "4 beef buns, 3 soup buns, 1 cup of soy milk." ”
The girl took the money, turned her head, and said softly, "That...... Beef buns, soup buns ......"
Lin Jie raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Shout louder!" Who can hear you like this? What should I do if there are too many people at the meeting? You told your dad to get up and shout? ”
The girl didn't expect Lin Jie to be so angry, she was so vigorous, her eyes were slightly closed, her long eyelashes trembled, and she shouted, "4 beef buns, 3 soup buns, 1 cup of soy milk!" ”
Lin Jie nodded, packed the things, handed them to the girl, and raised his chin, "Give it to someone else." ”
The girl's face flushed, and she handed the breakfast to the student, looking at her hands in distraction.
Lin Jie lowered his head and said while tidying up, "What? Not happy? ”
"It's okay......" The girl said weakly, fiddling with her hands, secretly glanced at Lin Jie, happened to meet his eyes, and hurriedly looked down at the ground.
"What's upset about that? Because I'm yelling at you? Why, haven't you been yelled at by a man in your daily life? Lin Jie smiled and continued to sort out the things in his hand, "Your father is sick, you have to take care of this store, you haven't graduated yet, right?" It just so happens that I will teach you a lesson for free, put down the shelf of why you are a good student, and shout loudly, now, selling the buns and soy milk in front of you is the right way! ”
"The right way?" The girl was suddenly stunned, glanced in the direction where her father was, nodded, and her eyes became firm, "Got it." ”
"Yes, I'm starting to hate you less anymore." Lin Jie looked the girl up and down, and said casually, "Originally, for a student like you who doesn't even go home and doesn't know anything......
"I'm not!" The girl's voice suddenly increased, then softened again, and murmured, "What do you want me to do, you just say it." ”
"Okay, here's the guest, be louder!" Lin Jie turned his head and didn't ask any more.
Each has its own **, Lin Jie felt that there was no need to ask.
But this girl, who seems to be quite familiar, when have you seen it? Whatever.
The winter sky is suffocatingly clear, and the cold air fills the surroundings, like a fox scurrying around.
The breakfast shop, but it is in full swing.
I only heard a shy voice, shouting vigorously, "5 sorghum steamed buns!" Hurry up! ”
Lin Jie was sweating profusely.
Many students saw 'Brother Lin' selling steamed buns here, and many came to cheer.
This morning, Lin Jie was completely tired.
And the ambulance also came to the school.
The boss resisted and struggled to get up and work and prove that he was okay.
Lin Jie leaned into the boss's ear and said softly, "This is a free place to apply for from the teachers of the school, you don't need to pay for future insurance, you can treat your illness with peace of mind, I will come to see this store." ”
After listening to Lin Jie's words, the boss slowly quieted down, glanced at Lin Jie meaningfully, sighed, and was carried away by an ambulance.
The hectic mornings finally stopped.
"Thank you." The girl's voice was a little hoarse, and she said to Lin Jie.
"Hmm." Lin Jie shrugged his shoulders, washed his hands and packed up his clothes, "I'll go first." ”
"Wait......" The girl gritted her teeth and grabbed Lin Jie's clothes, "Listen to me, it's not that I won't come back." It's really not that you won't come back. ”
Gotta drill the horns of the bull...... Lin Jie rolled his eyes.
