Chapter 63: The President's Routine
When I bought good things and took a taxi to her house, I was about to call her to come out and open the door, but the door actually opened by itself.
Presumably, there are things like monitoring or sensors on the door, so that she can control the door from inside, or some other high-tech that I don't understand, and it makes me feel the superior life experience that technology brings to the rich.
When I came to her house, I saw that she was still wearing pajamas, but it was not the same as last night.
When she saw me come in, she quickly stood on one foot from the sofa and said, "I didn't expect you to really come, thank you!" ”
I nodded at her, thinking to myself that you didn't expect it. Putting it down, I came to her without her permission, and reached out to take her injured foot and looked at it.
She probably didn't expect me to come out of nowhere, and she screamed.
Her ankles are still swollen, but they are significantly better than yesterday, and it is clear that she is deliberately lying to me that she is more painful than yesterday, and her real purpose is nothing more than trying to trick me into cooking for her.
I flicked my fingers hard at her swollen ankles, and she screamed in pain in a hurry.
"What are you doing?" She exclaimed.
"Nothing, look how you're recovering!" I don't care to say.
"You, you did it on purpose!" Her apricot eyes widened.
"Since you think I have bad intentions, then I'll go!" After saying that, he pretended to leave.
"Stop!" She stopped me: "Can you cook me a bowl of noodles?" Her eyes suddenly turned pleading.
I laughed in my heart, I really didn't even want to do it for a bowl of food, and it became too fast.
"Can't you cook it yourself!" I gave her a blank look and continued to feign anger.
"I ...... Isn't this a foot pain! Her eyes rolled.
"You're not afraid that I'll poison you by drugged you in a bowl!"
"That'...... You just cook two bowls, let's eat together, I'll pick first! She seemed to be clever enough to laugh like a fool.
I shook my head to myself, how did this proud woman become like this. It makes me wonder if she fell her foot or her head last night. I didn't bother to pay attention to her anymore, and went to the kitchen with the food I bought.
After a while I brought the boiled noodles to her, she took one look and said, "Didn't I ask you to cook two bowls, why only one?" ”
"I've eaten it, and I don't want to see what time it is!" I gave her a blank look.
"Then you take a bite first!" She brought the chopsticks to me.
I was speechless, this woman really thought I was poisoning the bowl, seeing her serious face, I grabbed the chopsticks and stuffed a chopstick noodle into my mouth as if I was angry, and then slapped the chopsticks on the bowl and pushed it in front of her.
She smirked at me and wiped her chopsticks with a tissue before eating.
"Can I ask you one thing?" She asked me as she ate.
"If you want to ask, you can ask, why do you need to ask me for instructions."
Mu Xichun didn't care about my cold attitude, and said, "I want to know why you helped that boy named Shishi, as far as I know, you have nothing to do with him." And in order to help him, you took out all your savings, which caused you to have no money to pay rent, and you could only live in your friend's bar warehouse! ”
I didn't expect her to ask this question.
"Yes, at that time, I wanted to advance some wages to you in order to pay the rent, but I didn't expect you not only to refuse, but since then my salary has almost been deducted by you. If it weren't for your ruthlessness, how would I have gotten to the point where I have nowhere to go. I took the opportunity to sarcastically.
Mu Xichun was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered that there was indeed such a thing, and muttered in a low voice: "How do I know that you borrowed money from me because you didn't have the money to pay the rent, if I knew, maybe I would lend it to you!" ”
"Really?" I sneered, "I'm afraid you wanted to see my jokes even more!" ”
Mu Xichun ignored my sarcasm and continued to ask, "I want to know, why would you help a child who has nothing to do with you!" You probably know what kind of situation this puts you in! ”
She turned to look at me, her eyes looking forward to my answer.
I was silent for a moment, thought about it and said truthfully: "Of course I know my situation, and the worst outcome is nothing more than what happened to me after that, but if I didn't help him at that time, he would have to go back to his hometown to farm."
I just don't want to see him completely upend his life's path because he can't afford to go to school. Speaking of this, I can't help but feel a little emotional, emotional and a little relieved at the same time, indeed, this matter is also a meaningful thing in my life.
"Is it just for this reason? Or does he have some special meaning to you? You should understand how many such things are in this world! Mu Xichun put down her chopsticks and focused on the conversation between us.
I sighed, remembering what I had done to help him in the first place.
"I know that this happens every day, and as you said before, we can't help everybody. But I could help at least one, and I did.
I paused, took a deep breath and continued, "Stone is a poor boy whose father died of a work injury without receiving any compensation. His mother had been working so hard to provide for him that she could collapse at any moment......"
Speaking of which, I couldn't go on, and I couldn't help but think of my mother, who didn't work too hard for me, which eventually led to her premature death.
"Actually, the main reason is that his mother is too much like my mother, and the moment I saw her, I knew that I couldn't stand by and watch this matter no matter what!"
Somehow, I didn't want to say what I was thinking, but I had a desire to talk about it, and I couldn't help but say it.
After saying that, I regretted it, because I clearly saw a trace of pity in Mu Xichun's eyes, and I felt that this was a kind of personality insult to me.
"Now that you're done eating, I'm leaving!" I don't want to stay here any longer. After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"You wait!" Mu Xichun saw that I was about to leave, so he hurriedly stopped me.
"You, can you help me press my foot again?"
She asked tentatively in a low tone, her eyes wide with longing.
"Aren't you much better? Get it yourself! "I want to go again.
Mu Xichun grabbed my arm in a hurry, and immediately let go after reacting, with a trace of embarrassment on his face.
"I'm afraid of pain myself, can you help me again!" She said with some embarrassment. "Just once!" She added, holding out a finger in a vow.
I was a little speechless, so I went to get a basin, poured salt water, and helped her do a recovery massage.
During the process, she kept looking at my face with interest, which made me a little embarrassed.
But looking at her expression of enjoyment, I suspected I had fallen into her trap again.
"I'll treat you to dinner in the evening!" I finished pressing her foot and was about to leave, when she said.
"Can you still walk like this?" I asked.
"Well, that's right! But you can pick me up! ”
As soon as I heard this, my heart couldn't help but tremble violently, and I hurriedly said, "No need, no need, you can rest well, I'm leaving!" After speaking, he was about to slip away when she stopped him.
"Wait!"
"What's the matter? Miss? I feigned impatience, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in my heart.
"That'...... What do I do at night? ”
"What to do?" I didn't turn the corner for a while.
"Can you, cook me again?" She looked pitiful, but I'm almost certain it was her routine again. I secretly said in my heart: I believe in you and I will be dogs.
"Can't!" I decisively refused, who I loved, I didn't serve anyway. Turn and walk out the door.
"I'll give you money!"
As soon as I stepped out of the door, I heard the word money and my foot retracted spinelessly, and I swore that this foot was definitely not under my control.
"What money?" I asked.
"You cook me a meal, I'll pay you!" She explained.
"Then ......" I hesitated to ask.
"Five hundred?" She saw that I was hesitant to offer the price herself.
“……”
"A thousand?"
In fact, sometimes people don't have discipline, but temperament is too fragile to resist the impact of money.
My heart jumped a few times at the hearing of the thousand, and I swore it wasn't for me...... Forget it, I just love money.
"Okay, I promise!" I barely gave it the slightest thought.
Mu Xichun showed a winner's smile, but I don't have the sense of shame that a loser should have at the moment.
"Since I have to do things after taking the money, I want to eat...... Well, steamed sea bass, boiled shrimp, and braised pork ribs......"
She said seven or eight dishes in one breath, and I hurriedly found a pen and wrote them down one by one.
"You give me the money to buy vegetables first, I don't have any money!" After remembering it, I told her that she ordered so many dishes and ingredients for three or four hundred yuan, and I couldn't pay for it myself.
Mu Xichun glanced at me with disdain, took out five hundred yuan from his bag and handed it to me and said, "I don't have a problem with money, but let's say it first, if you don't do it to my taste, I will deduct my salary!" ”
"Don't worry, as long as the money is in place, there's nothing I can't do!" After saying that, he took the money and turned to leave.
I looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and since I had agreed, Mu Xichun had to sacrifice the time to sleep. So I took a taxi to the vegetable market to buy ingredients written on a slip of paper.
After visiting the vegetable market for more than an hour, I finally purchased all the things I needed for the evening, and I still had more than 100 yuan left in my hand, and I couldn't help but feel happy, needless to say, I would not return this more than 100 yuan to Mu Xichun.
It was close to four o'clock when I returned to Mu Xichun's house again, and I didn't say anything to Mu Xichun, so I went to the kitchen to get busy.
In fact, I don't mean to brag when I say that there is no food that can stump me, this is related to my life experience since I was a child, as the saying goes, the children of poor families are in charge of the house early, which is probably what it means.
Although it is certainly not slacking off compared to professional chefs, it can definitely be used.
Just as I was busy, Mu Xichun suddenly limped to the kitchen door, leaning on the door frame and watching me clean up the fish in my hand with interest.
