Chapter 113: The night is as cold as water
At this moment, looking at the bottle full of gladiolus flowers, the fragrance is slightly floating, and the room is full of spring. I think that no matter what kind of atmosphere the store is, it can't stop the fragrance of gladiolus. At this moment, Dahlia came back and shouted at me to hurry up and eat.
When I walked into the small warehouse, I was shocked by the dishes that Sister Yan had set up on the table. A plate on the left and a bag on the right, there can be six or seven kinds.
"Uh, you really fell into the pile of blessings, and you are full of Han every day?" I say.
She laughed and said, "Eat, you two." "I thought to myself, foodies are usually very protective of food, if Sister Yan really wanted the two of us to eat, she wouldn't have been silent when Dali went out to buy food just now. The reason why she brings so many meals may be because she eats a lot. The stomach is stretched, this is the main reason why dieters can't lose weight, a little bit of food is not enough to stuff the teeth, where to lose this fat?
I ate a hot rice bowl and it felt good. Sister Yan persuaded us to eat the dishes she brought while eating, but the chopsticks in her hand were honestly put into her bowl. Dahlia picked up a piece of pig's hand brought by Sister Yan and nibbled on it and said, "You can also nibble on a piece, it's delicious." β
"You can spare me, my teeth can only enjoy the soft things that an eighty-year-old lady enjoys." I say.
The incandescent lamps on the roof of the small warehouse are very strong, and the light is shining straight up and down from the overhead, and it is visually felt that this kind of light illuminates people's faces miserably, and the room with walls on all sides makes people feel stuffy, even if it is a moment of eating.
At about three o'clock, when he was busy, Sha Chenbao walked in. He was dressed in factory overalls and carried a woven bag with half of it in his hand and placed it on the corner of the table. I poured him a glass of warm water and went about my work.
"Eldest sister, Boss Lan led someone here this morning? Who are those people? Sha Chenbao said.
"Yes." I say. "But it's also the first time I've seen two people she brought in, one is making materials, and the other is her friend, she said herself."
"Ah, it's the first time you've seen those two!" Sha Chenbao said, "Then tell your brother, what does Boss Lan mean?" You've been with her for so many years, you must know her, I don't believe you don't know anything about it? β
I picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, feeling the water cold. I thought, after following her for so many years, do I have to understand her? Is Sha Chenbao using his years to kidnap me?
At this moment, I seemed to hear me say in a cold tone: "According to your reasoning, Dali is still a relative of their family, and Sister Yan also lent money to their family, is it possible, they need to know more?" Everyone is stupidly busy all day long, and in the end, you hammer them to death? Just because one of yours doesn't believe it? When these words came to his lips, he swallowed them back raw.
That's it, even if you open your mouth, it's a mistake, and it's a mistake not to speak, or don't say it. Then, I repeated what Boss Lan said in the morning to him as it was.
After being silent for a while, he said: "The big melon seeds in the bag are brought from Inner Mongolia and grown by my own family. Each of you divides a little, takes it back and cooks it, and eats it. When I watch a TV series at night, I take a handful, it's very fragrant. β
Hearing him say this, I suddenly remembered that I had been wondering about his two neat front front teeth, both of which had a big gap underneath, which was sure to be a melon seed.
"How many melon seeds can you eat without sleeping?" I asked.
"It's just more than a pound, I haven't weighed it." He said.
"Are you eating raw or cooked?" I asked.
"Raw." He said.
"Me too, when I was a child, I often sat in the vegetable garden in the autumn and ate raw melon seeds." I say.
He stood up, lifted the woven bag and opened it, opened it with both hands, and took out a large handful of melon seeds and put it on the table. The big black and shiny melon seeds are full and look very good. I peeled the melon seeds with my hands, fearing that if I swallowed my teeth, it would leave a gap on the surface of my teeth.
Dali, who was quick to move, found three brand-new plastic bags in the small warehouse, divided the melon seeds very evenly, and was very happy to see her appearance.
Sha Chenbao has been answering the phone and arranging work in the factory. At the end of work, the customer who happened to come met Sha Chenbao and talked for a long time very happily. When he went out and walked into the elevator, Sha Chenbao said, didn't you hold the melon seeds for you?
I patted my head and suddenly remembered the melon seeds, which I was so busy just now that I forgot about it. I said that when I came tomorrow morning, I would put the melon seeds in my bag, so that I would not have to worry about it and forget it. He said, drop you off. I nodded. I walked out of the gate on the first floor and walked out into the small square, and it was dark.
"Hey! My dear, wait for you to be old for a long time before you come out, a carload of people is waiting for you to eat! Suddenly, I saw Boss Lan standing next to her car, waving and shouting at me.
I was stunned, and I didn't come to my senses for a long time.
"Is she talking to me?" I asked Sha Chenbao, who was standing on the side.
"It's not you, it's me." He said.
At this moment, Boss Lan drove the car over, and vaguely saw Liang Bing, Suo Jincan, and the eldest brother sitting in the car.
"I don't know, they're looking for me to eat?" I told Sha Chenbao.
At this time, Boss Lan, who came down from the cab, said to Sha Chenbao with a smile on his face: "Let's go eat together, brother." Then, the eldest brother sitting in the car opened the car door and said impatiently: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, auntie, you're in the car!" β
Sha Chenbao smiled and said to Boss Lan that he would not go, and then, after a glance at me, he turned his head and left. At this moment, Boss Lan, who pulled me into the car and closed the door, sat in the cab, and the car slowly drove forward.
Through the glass window in the back seat of the car, I saw Sha Chenbao slowly leaving in his dilapidated silver-gray van, and I was like a child who had done something wrong, lost in the night.
Outside the car window, the lights are on, and the light is strange. Inside the window, there was silence.
"Heh, why is it so sudden that a group of people are waiting for me to eat? I was so surprised, why didn't you just call me? I said.
"I'm waiting for you at the door before it's time to get off work, can you still grow wings and fly?" Boss Lan chuckled after speaking.
"What if I walk over and you don't see me?" I said, "You don't call. β
"These eight eyes, can't you see a single one?" After Boss Lan finished speaking, everyone in the car laughed.
Suddenly, hearing her say this, I didn't feel anything ridiculous, but felt a chill behind my back, and I blamed her for her abruptness in my heart.
Ay! Donβt wait for prosperity to care for the things important to you.
I understand her general character of "fighting the Holy Buddha", and she can't hold half a grain of sand in her eyes, let alone Ma Feng, who made her lose face in front of people today.
Perhaps, she didn't tear her face with Ma Feng on the spot, on the one hand, she was thinking about her image in front of her two friends, and on the other hand, she thought of the care she had given Sha Chenbao when she was seriously ill. It is also possible that she didn't stop this afternoon, waiting for Sha Chenbao's call or wanting to chat with Sha Chenbao, but Sha Chenbao was busy in the store until he got off work, and it was obvious that his position was consistent with Ma Feng. And this afternoon is enough to exhaust Sha Chenbao's care for her.
At that time, it started with a tug-of-war between the two of them, and until the end of the tearing face, she didn't pull me in. However, this time it was different, I didn't expect it, she drove me to the fire and roasted me first, so as to make a vicious discordant trick. To put it bluntly, I just didn't think about it in this way, so I suddenly felt surprised. After thinking about it, Da Li is the eldest brother's sister-in-law, so she is naturally her own person. Sister Yan has not returned a small part of the money she lent to her eldest brother, please ask her to go back, can you say that you are not dead for her?
In fact, I am self-righteous and know a little about her, but I don't know her as well as I am.
She knows that I stand in the middle of the way in everything, and I will not favor her side at all because of the length of time I spend with her. At the time when she was competing with Hong, she was smart and had already counted it in her heart.
This one, on the battlefield that seems to have just opened, the flames of war first burned to me. Obviously, I, who had never thought of participating in the war, was defeated in a daze at this time.
The drunkard does not mean to eat at the dinner of wine, but in a small restaurant, it ends with a few simple meals and a short time. After the meal, Suo Jincan said that his family lived not far away and walked back.
At this moment, the eldest brother was driving the car, and Liang Bing, who had been silent, was sitting in the co-pilot's seat. At the beginning of his fifties, he had big eyes and a bright eye. But he never seemed to make direct eye contact with anyone, and always scanned everyone with his peripheral vision, like a probe hanging in the corner of the wall above his head. When you suddenly look at him, his gaze just swept over your head, just when Boss Lan introduced him.
On the way home, Boss Lan, who was sitting in the back seat, was next to me. She didn't ask me about the business of the store, maybe she was smart enough to know that even if she did, I wouldn't tell her.
At this time, she has been pulling the family routine, asking about the child's situation, at that time, the fast and slow speed of speech and the caring tone reminded me of my mother at once, and my nose was a little sour.
When I got downstairs, my eldest brother urged me to get out of the car quickly, saying that parking was not allowed there. I pretended to slowly move to the door of the car and said, "You have to say, auntie, please get out of the car!"
"You little brat, you're looking for a smoke, aren't you?" He looked back at me with wide eyes.
"Humph!" I slammed him.
At this moment, carrying Boss Lan's laughter, the car drove into the distance and disappeared into the long street with heavy traffic.
The night was as cold as water. On the night of Meng Chun, the wind swept up the dust on the streets, and the branches of the trees kept swaying in the wind to make the sound of salad and salad.
The night sky is as deep and quiet as the sea, and the stars are blinking. The moonlight was much softer, and there was a soft color mixed in with the silver.
There are many wild cats in the small courtyard, including orange cats, black cats with two white dots on their two big eyes, and a gray tanuki with tiger skin-like lines and a little zebra-like look. At this moment, I don't know where they are lurking and hiding, but their cries are clearly audible.
