Chapter 778: A Bag of Dried Sweet Potatoes

The two of them found a seat by the window.

Soon, the waiter brought two lunches, which were simple to avoid suspicion, a small bowl of offal soup and a plate of salt-baked potato chips.

Erbao skillfully helped his "sweetheart" set up the tableware.

"Xu's ......"

"Didn't I tell you, just call me Erbao."

"Two... Two treasures. Xie Dailin blushed: "I really want to thank you this time, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have found such a good job." ”

She had also gone out to work during the summer vacation.

As a result, not to mention the tiredness of work, the salary is only 80 yuan a day, and I have to work 12 hours.

Here the day is almost the same as the previous four days.

"No thanks, although the two of us are not classmates, we have taken common elective courses, which is also a kind of fate, isn't it?"

Erbao hurriedly shook his head.

Xie Dailin stared at the other party for a while, and said cautiously: "Erbao, do you know Mr. Cui?" ”

She is not a stupid big sister, she has already discovered the clues.

"Uh, you see that?"

Erbao smiled humbly.

"You didn't work for me, did you? Cui is always the general manager, and he is too good to the two of us temporary workers, and he has never scolded the two of us since the first day he entered the store. ”

Xie Dailin explained softly.

"Maybe it's Mr. Cui?"

Erbao quibbled.

The corners of Xie Dailin's mouth hooked: "Sister Yao and their regular workers have been scolded, how can the two of us be exceptions?" And today's lunch, it's just obvious. ”

"Okay, you guessed it right, I do know Mr. Cui, she is my sister's best friend."

In the face of the facts, Erbao can only admit it happily.

"No wonder! But I still want to thank you for work, I wanted to invite you to a meal, but I didn't expect to think of it with Mr. Cui, so I could only borrow flowers to offer Buddha. ”

Xie Dailin scooped most of the offal from his own bowl and gently put it into the other party's bowl.

"No, no, you can eat it yourself!"

Erbao resigned again and again.

In response, he also divided half of the potato slices, but the other party did not refuse.

"The potato chips here are fried in butter and they taste great, you can try them too."

"Thank you!" Xie Dailin smiled, and then greeted: "Okay, let's hurry up and eat, don't waste the food, to be honest, I've been hungry for many days." ”

"Hey, me too."

Erbao immediately echoed.

"I don't see it." Xie Dailin shook his head slightly, and then chatted while eating: "Erbao, I see that the conditions at your home should be not bad, how did you think of coming out to work on winter vacation?" ”

"What other purpose could there be? Of course, I want to earn more pocket money, and my parents are very strict with money. ”

Of course, Erbao will not say the truth stupidly, it is not yet time, saying it will only increase embarrassment, and if it is not good, it will scare the other party away.

"Really? Don't you have enough pocket money to spend? ”

Xie Dailin wondered.

"It's okay to tell you, I want to save money to buy an electric bicycle, and we're going to start doing internships this summer, and it's more convenient to have a car."

Erbao casually made up a reason.

However, the internship is true, and the disaster in the country has seriously impacted the order of life in Sydney, and the public security situation has suddenly become severe.

The situation waits for no one!

All available resources must be utilized.

Xie Dailin sighed: "It's a pity, if only we could work for another two months in the summer, even if we graduate in the future, it will be difficult to get a salary of three hundred yuan a day." ”

"Don't be stupid, being a police officer is better than being a waiter, right?"

Erbao was startled and hurriedly reminded.

You don't need to ask to know that it is absolutely impossible for my mother to accept a waiter as her daughter-in-law, and Niuniu's high education almost didn't pass.

"Don't worry, I'm just talking."

Xie Dailin said insincerely.

Their family's economic conditions are not good, and the reason why she chose to study in the police academy is that in addition to free tuition, she usually has a living allowance, which can reduce a lot of burden on her family.

Erbao was still a little uneasy, and immediately thought of a foolproof strategy:

"Xie Dailin, didn't your sister take the college entrance examination this year? When the college entrance examination is over, it is better to let her come over part-time and earn her tuition and living expenses by herself. ”

Xie Dailin immediately put down the spoon: "Can this work?" Wouldn't it be too much trouble? ”

"Don't bother, Mr. Cui and my sister are best friends, and it's not a matter of words."

Erbao patted his chest on the spot and reassured.

"Erbao, thank you."

"You're welcome, we're good friends, shouldn't friends help each other?"

Xie Dailin subconsciously lowered his head.

In fact, she had already seen that classmate Xu was interested in her, but she didn't have the heart to fall in love at all, their father died early, and it was all up to their mother to pull their three sisters and brothers alone.

Seeing that classmate Xie was in a daze, Erbao immediately cared and said:

"Xie Dailin, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Dailin reacted instantly: "It's okay, the soup is almost cold, let's drink the soup quickly!" ”

Half an hour later, the romantic lunch ends.

Erbao proposed, "Do you want to go shopping?" The day after tomorrow is the New Year, and the streets are very lively. ”

"No need, there's something going on at home."

"Alright then, I'll send you back."

Erbao said casually.

After all, Xie is a girl, and he escorted him home every day after work.

Xie Dailin hurriedly waved his hand: "No need, it's not eight or nine o'clock in the evening, it's no problem for me to go home alone." ”

Although there is no obvious distinction between day and night, it is relatively safe to have more pedestrians and more police on the streets during the day.

"It's okay, I don't have anything else to do anyway, this job was introduced by me, I don't feel comfortable if I don't send you home safely."

Erbao insisted.

Xie Dailin had no choice but to accept the other party's kindness, and finally the two got on the bus together.

Half an hour later, the Yahai community arrived.

Erbao kept sending his "sweetheart" downstairs, and before parting, he took out a five-pound bag of dried sweet potatoes from his backpack.

This is made by his grandmother herself.

"Erbao, what are you?"

"This is my Spring Festival gift to you, say Happy New Year to you in advance, and by the way, help me and my aunt to say a New Year's greeting."

"I can't ask for it, you better take it back!"

"It's just a bag of dried sweet potatoes, and it's not a valuable thing, you just take it, I'll go."

Erbao put down the bag, turned around and ran.

Dried sweet potatoes are already the most common ingredients their family can find, and originally he wanted to put a few eggs in it, but then he thought that it didn't fit his "identity".

In the end, I reluctantly gave up.

"Erbao, don't you run?"

Xie Dailin immediately chased after him with the bag.

"Stop chasing, let's see you in the second year!"

Erbao quickly ran out of the community, and when he passed by the guard's room, he also stuffed a small bag of dried sweet potatoes for the janitor, about half a catty.

Happy to have the janitor praise Erbao for being sensible.
