Chapter 5 Treats
Chen Xiaorong began to miss classes frequently, and she dressed up more and more fancy. However, she never gave Yan Juan any more clothes.
Listening to the philosophy teacher's lecture in the clouds, Yan Juan took the pen and pretended to write notes, in fact, his head had already drifted to nowhere.
She recalled that there was indeed a time when Chen Xiaorong often skipped class, but she didn't know it was for Lu Wenjun's reason before.
One hand played with the pen, but a bitter smile appeared on his face.
She is really stupid enough, she has been kept in the dark by Chen Xiaorong for so many years. Thinking of the smile that Chen Xiaorong showed at their wedding, now that I think about it, it is clearly indescribably complicated.
I was so happy at the time that I ignored that.
Compared with Chen Xiaorong's initiative, Yan Juan is more calm. She still went to school and home, and the happiest thing was that she and Lu Xiang were both admitted as salesmen at the counter by Yangshen Jewelry.
"Yan Juan, I'll invite you to dinner!" Lu Xiang was rarely generous, "Celebrate that we finally escaped from this black shop and found a new life." ”
Yan Juan couldn't help laughing: "I'll invite you." ”
She knew that although Lu Xiang worked no less than three jobs and had a higher "income" than herself, she still had to save a sum of money every month to send back to the orphanage, and her ordinary life was very difficult.
"I'm in a good mood today, and I have to fight my teeth once in a while!" After Lu Xiang closed the door of the Twelfth Store, he couldn't help but pull Yan Juan around twice.
"Where to go?" Yan Juan asked strangely.
"Where you can have a supper, please!" Lu Xiang's eyes were shining, and he seemed to be particularly excited because the food was in front of him.
On the other side of the street, there is a large food stall.
Three years of pampering have made Yan Juan not suitable for this way of eating. Sitting in a corner, I always feel like I can't let go.
The so-called "tooth sacrifice", for Lu Xiang, is actually just two points of fried noodles.
Yan Juan picked up the noodles one by one, looking at Lu Xiang's feasting, and felt that his appetite slowly surged.
"Delicious, right? I've been thinking about it for a long time. Lu Xiang looked greedy, but he didn't feel disgusted.
"Why did you save money and send it back to the orphanage? I thought it was welfare, and the government should have allocated it. Yan Juan asked curiously.
"Well, there is an allocation, but it's not enough. Children are growing up, and it is very simple to eat. The dean spent every penny on the child, but it was still not enough. Lu Xiang stared at the empty bowl, looking unsatisfied, as if he wanted to pick up the bowl and lick it vigorously before he was willing to give up.
"But you're not having a good time." Yan Juan said pityingly.
"Who's to say bad? If you can sleep and eat, your health is the capital. Lu Xiang patted his chest, and when he saw Yan Xuan's smile on his face, he thought that this posture was indecent, and withdrew his hand in a sneering manner.
"It doesn't seem like you've eaten enough......" Yan Juan deliberately muttered to herself.
"yes, but ...... Today is extravagant enough, let's come back to the tooth festival next time. Although Lu Xiang was salivating, he still shook his head firmly.
Yan Juan touched his pocket, fortunately with dozens of yuan, so he said very heroically: "You have invited me, now I will invite you, let's eat another bowl of fried noodles." ”
Maybe it was because the fried noodles tasted too good, Lu Xiang hesitated for a while, and when he saw that Yan Juan had already called the boss, he hurriedly chased after him: "We can't eat one bowl for one person, so if we want another bowl, just share it for two people." ”
Yan Juan agreed with a smile, ordered a bowl of noodles, and didn't ask for any more dishes.
Most of the noodles were dialed into Lu Xiang's bowl.
"We'll go to work tomorrow, let's do a good job." Lu Xiang clenched his fists and made a cheering motion, "Then make a lot of money and send it back to the orphanage, so that the little radish heads can eat better." ”
Yan Juan was a little sad, Lu Xiang ate very simply, except for porridge and noodles, and a little cabbage.
This city is known as one of the richest cities in the country, but there are still girls like Lu Xiang who have cut down on food and clothing to such a point for their ideals.
"Fortunately, your junior year of homework is not heavy, otherwise, where would you have come from to work these jobs?"
My mother left a little savings for herself, and she still had insurance money to get every year, and she felt that it was unreliable to sit on the mountain. A poor and white girl like Lu Xiang, in addition to her own expenses, has to send money back to the orphanage as much as possible, no wonder she is so thin that she doesn't have three taels of flesh.
If her parents were alive and well, they would probably feel so distressed that they would see such a situation.
Lu Xiang held his stomach contentedly: "It's so full......"
She smacked her mouth and looked at Yan Juan embarrassedly: "I said that I would invite you, but the two bowls of noodles I ordered all went to my stomach." Hey, are you full? ”
"Of course I'm full, am you still polite to me?" Yan Juan said with a grin.
Accepting Chen Xiaorong's dress of more than 300 yuan and accepting Lu Xiang's five-yuan bowl of fried noodles feels completely different.
"The income of this job should be better than that of a convenience store, and we will take the salary and eat a bowl of fried noodles." Lu Xiang reluctantly left the food stall, "Eat another plate of snails...... Well, that's fine. ”
"Good. See you tomorrow. ”
Yan Juan took a few steps and turned back again. In her memory, it seems that she and Lu Xiang have not known each other for a long time in the convenience store, and they have not been in contact again.
It turned out that the real good friend was missed by her like this.
And she regarded her as a good friend who could share everything, and finally really "shared" her husband.
Yan Juan shook his head, the smile on the corner of his lips was very cold.
The next day, I officially went to work, but in fact, it was just a change of job, a little far from home, and I had to change buses.
But Lu Xiang and Yan Juan were very happy.
Lu Xiang is because his income is twice as high as that of a convenience store, although he has to stand all the time according to the prescribed working hours.
Yan Juan got her wish and took the first step in her understanding of jewelry. She vowed that she would become a first-class jewelry designer.
They stood side by side at the counter, all with heartfelt smiles on their faces.
"Yes, with a smile on everyone's face." The manager was a boy—no, a man, though he was tall and thin.
The skin tone is darker than cream, with a healthy hint of brown. Thick black hair, slightly curly. The eyes are a rare gray color, resembling the wings of a pigeon.
His surname is rare, Yan. The name is also very delicate, and it is also hearty.
At first glance, you would think it was a girl. Although he is very good-looking, there is no doubt about gender.
"Manager Yan, you see that Lu Juan is beautiful, so he is eccentric and asks her to sell diamonds." Lu Xiang and everyone are familiar with each other, although Yan Yixin is the manager, she is not afraid of life at all, and jokes are still made.
Yan Yixin smiled and comforted: "Diamonds are not the best jewelry, in terms of price, there are many gemstones whose price per carat exceeds that of diamonds. ”
