"What are you going to eat at night, Tang Xuan."

When he was about to get home, Qin Zheng asked Tang Qiu.

Tang Zhao felt a little speechless, when did they start to eat dinner together by default, didn't they all solve their own dietary problems before that......

"Aren't you going to have dinner with me without voting for me?"

Qin Zheng's watery and moving eyes flashed with innocence, Tang Zhao flattened his mouth, and had no choice but to respond.

"You say what you want to eat, and we'll eat together."

Qin Zheng thought about it and didn't have a clue.

Tang Zhao was not annoyed, after all, he still had something very important to do when he went home tonight.

"I said Tang Qiu, I'll stay at your house for the night, why don't you want me to come here to help you clean up?"

Qin Zheng, who came to Tang Zhao's house, listened to Tang Zhao's instructions, and the whole person was a little annoyed.

"What can I do? Your hair is next to the pillow in the guest room, in the floor drain in the bathroom, just not on your head. Chang Le stayed at my house yesterday, and he saw the scene after we lived together, and he found your hair. So, in order to avoid long nights, you must help me clean up this place, and for the sake of my reputation. ”

"You don't have any reputation, you take a female classmate home to live, I'll sue your mother."

"If you want to be a self-destructing truck, no one cares about you, anyway, my mom probably won't feel anything when she hears it. If you tell my father, maybe he'll plan to prepare the bride price. ”

"You ......"

Qin Zheng was furious, after losing the main venue of the school, when she came to Tang Zhao's house, she was mostly in a state of loss.

Qin Zheng was in charge of cleaning the guest room, and Tang Zhao was in charge of preparing dinner. The two of them had a clear division of labor, and they were busy at home.

Qin Zheng was a relatively independent girl, and under Tang Yu's instructions, she quickly replaced all the bed sheets and pillowcases in the guest room with clean ones, and at the same time put the changed things into the washing machine. After that, she swept and mopped the floor, wiped every corner of the room with a rag, and it didn't take long for the whole room to look brand new.

Tang Zhao was very satisfied with the results of Qin Zheng's labor, and even thought about how to trick Qin Zheng in his heart and let her help clean up the rest of the house.

For dinner, it was onion fat beef rice, and the ingredients used were leftovers from the last hot pot.

Tang Zhao also mixed a cold dish with a peel and cucumber, and the situation of such a table is not shabby compared with the past.

"Hey, I've known each other for a long time, and the treatment has changed. Thinking about the first time I had dinner at Tang Zhao's house, the dishes on that table were dazzling......"

"Have you ever seen a fisherman who catches a fish and continues to feed it bait?"

“……”

Qin Zheng glared at Tang Qiu, picked up his chopsticks and started.

Not to mention, the fat beef rice made by Tang Zhao is similar to the one sold in the chain stores outside, and it is indeed delicious.

"It's delicious. Let me tell you, the essence of this fat beef rice is actually oyster sauce. As long as the oyster sauce is in place, it tastes delicious. ”

Tang Zheng boasted to himself, but this time Qin Zheng didn't interrupt him again.

Qin Zheng was quietly eating fat cow rice, listening to Tang Zhao in front of him explain the production process of fat cow rice, and suddenly felt that this was very good.

There is a lot of noise around you, and sometimes, it's a very happy thing.

Tang Xuan said as he spoke, seeing that Qin Zheng did not react, he gradually closed his mouth.

"Why don't you go on?"

Qin Zheng asked softly at Tang Yu.

"You don't like to hear it, and you don't understand what you say. Your cooking level is still a certain gap with me. ”

"Tang Qiu thinks that it is very important for girls to be good at cooking? In other words, a girl who is good at cooking will add a lot of impression points to Tang Qiu's heart? ”

"Not really."

Tang Qiu shook his head and put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Everyone has their own areas of expertise, and it doesn't mean that girls have to cook. What era is it now, you go to stand on the balcony and look at the community in the distance, and basically the people who are stir-frying are men. This is Shencheng, no one is afraid of his wife, everyone loves his wife. Not to mention ......"

"What's more?"

Qin Zheng looked at Tang Qiu's eyes and asked with a puzzled expression.

"What's more, your bowl of vegetable porridge is better than thousands of delicacies from the mountains and seas to me."

After Tang Zhao finished speaking, he laughed, Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed with Tang Zheng.

"At that time, I was not familiar with the environment of Tang Zhao's family, and I didn't know that it was not sugar but salt."

"Come on, sugar and salt are still easy to distinguish, right? I really can't do it, you can taste a little bit. You don't know, at that time, I was almost speechless when the bowl of salted vegetable porridge went down. ”

"Then you still have to eat?"

"How dare I live up to your kindness."

Tang Yu said naturally, picked up the chopsticks again and began to continue eating.

"You'd better not let me down, or I'll make you never see me in your life."

"What are you talking about? Don't mention whether I live up to you or not, you can't let me never see you in my life. ”

"Why?"

"Because you stay in my heart, I can't forget your beauty in the world, so I can see you anytime and anywhere."

"I'm flamboyant with my sister, right?"

Qin Zheng made a gesture to hit Tang Zhao with chopsticks, but Tang Zheng did not dodge, because he believed that Qin Zheng could not do the thing of throwing chopsticks on the dining table.

Although Qin Zheng looks sunny on the outside, he also has a gentle side on the inside. She is extremely well-educated, grew up in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and the tenderness in her bones will not change with age.

After getting along for a long time, Tang Zhao felt that he had become more and more shameless when he communicated with Qin Zheng.

As for how true or false his words were, he didn't know what he was doing.

"I always come to your house to eat, will you hate me?"

"No, after all, you're still helping me with the housework."

"Then what if I don't help you with housework, don't do anything, and wait for you to cook food and drink for me every day?"

"Then you're just like my mother."

"Huh?"

Qin Zheng frowned slightly, Tang Yu realized his gaffe, and subconsciously covered his mouth.

After dinner, Tang Zhao was brushing the dishes in the kitchen, and Qin Zheng took out the washed sheets in the washing machine and hung them on the balcony to dry.

After that, Qin Zheng rested at Tang Zhao's house for a while, and was ready to say goodbye to Tang Zhao and go home.

Tang Zhao sent Qin Zheng to the entrance, and while Qin Zheng was changing his shoes, Tang Zheng said a word leisurely.

"Or you'll just stay in my house, and it's a hassle to run back and forth all day, isn't it?"

"Okay."

Qin Zheng answered, and he was not ready to change his shoes, and he made a gesture to return to the living room.

Tang Zhao panicked, he just said hi, he really didn't dare to live directly with Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng, who saw through Tang Zhao's thoughts, stretched out his hand and punched Tang Zhao, then turned around and continued to change his shoes.

"Don't always joke with people, sometimes you don't know if the other person is serious."

Before Qin Zheng went out, he left Tang Zhao with such a sentence.

Tang Zhao kept sending Qin Zheng downstairs until he watched her walk in the direction of home.

She carried a schoolbag on her back, her walk was light, her long chestnut hair swayed gently with her steps, not to mention her slender and tall back.

Tang Qiu just stood there and watched, until Qin Zheng walked far away, and he could no longer see her figure, so he withdrew his gaze.

Tang Zhao had nothing to do, and it was not interesting to go home, so he simply entered the cake shop next to him.

The day he and Qin Zheng met for the first time in the cake shop, it was also because he was bored, so he went to the store to eat and play at the same time, which led to the experience of making an appointment with Qin Zheng offline.

There are seats in the cake shop, but most customers choose to buy something and take it with them, so it should be said that this is the normal situation. Tang Zhao's cake shop supports dine-in, essentially because the store in Tang Zhao's house covers a relatively large area during the early decoration, and it is idle anyway, so a dine-in area is simply set up.

If you choose to dine-in, the store also has a free drink, coffee or milk tea, with a piece of cream cake, which is quite comfortable.

Tang Zhao said hello to Aunt Wang, and took a small cake to the sofa in the corner of the dine-in area and sat down.

Anyway, I don't have much to do when I go home, so it's better to play with my phone here for a while and eat a piece of cake before going home.

But what he didn't expect was that there were really dine-in customers in the store today.

You must know that Tang Zhaojia's cake shop is not a place for Internet celebrities to check in and drink afternoon tea, it is the most ordinary cake shop. Moreover, this guest is still a middle-aged man, the small cake in front of him is exactly the same as the small cake in Tang Zhao's hand, and he chose the coffee in the store for his own drink.

The round-faced guest wears glasses and a white short-sleeved shirt. He behaved like a cadre, eating strawberry-flavored cream cakes while looking at the environment of the store.

Not to mention anything else, a man with this image would choose to eat small cakes in a cake shop, which is already very inconsistent......

On the man's table was a packed dessert gift box and a cream cake, which seemed to be ready to be eaten and taken away.

Sensing Tang Qiu's gaze, the man smiled slightly at him, showing a little shyness and uneasiness on his honest face.

"It's weird that an uncle like me would sit here and eat a little cake like this, right?"

"No, our cake shop treats all customers equally, no matter how old they are, they have the freedom and right to love desserts."

Tang Qiu's words obviously made the other party's eyes a little more bright.

"You say this is your cake shop?"

"That's right, my dad opened the cake shop."

"In this way, then you can be regarded as a small boss."

The man laughed and talked with Tang Xuan, and he did not cross the generation gap that should exist in age at all.

Tang Zhao felt that this uncle should be the same age as his father, but he didn't know why he ate cake here.

If it's because I like my own cakes, then why haven't I seen him before?

"I'm here because my daughter loves your cakes. She is a somewhat taciturn girl, although not to the point of not liking to talk, but not as lively as girls of the same age. On weekdays, I don't think she has any preferences, and most of the time she spends her time studying. She's seventeen years old, and she looks like she's an adult, and I don't think I've ever known her in depth, and I don't know where to start. I happened to be passing by this street today, thinking that maybe she would be happier if I helped her buy your cake and go back. ”

Tang Qiu listened silently, feeling that the uncle in front of him was really a good father. At the same time, he also felt that it was great that his cake could be favored by the other party's daughter.

"You're a good father, and your daughter should feel the same way. Even if you don't usually communicate with her much, as a family member, I don't think there are some emotions that need not be deliberately spoken. Everyone's personality is different, as long as she's happy, isn't it, even if she's not as lively as her peers. Also, I don't think you have to feel sorry for her because she's coming of age. You've raised her for so long, from babbling as a toddler to now watching her grow up, and that's enough. ”

The middle-aged man looked at Tang Zhao for a long time, thinking about Tang Zhao's words in his mind.

This is undoubtedly a special comfort, after all, in some family relationships, due to the personalities of both parties, it is extremely easy to cause differences in communication, which will also make people mistake it for a lack of emotion.

But the family is always there, and so is the love.

"I'll give you a cat cake in a moment, it's a new product in our store, a kitten-shaped snack, red bean paste, you can take it home and eat it with your family."

"You young man, you have a great future. I think you're good, and if you can't marry a daughter-in-law in the future, I'll marry my daughter to you. ”

Tang Zhao was slightly stunned, and soon realized that the other party was joking, and he got off the donkey in his mouth.

"Thank you very much."

The middle-aged uncle paid at the front desk after eating the cake, and Tang Zhao, who was the little boss, gave a cat cake and sent the other party out of the door with a smile.

The middle-aged man got into a black car parked across the road and drove away.

"Our little boss has a big picture."

In the store, pastry chef Li Yong said to Aunt Wang, and his tone was full of praise for Tang Xuan's behavior.

As night fell, the entire Shencheng City also fell into a special tranquility.

Zhao Zhishui sat at the desk in his room and looked at the workbook on the table, to be precise, at the small note with her name written in the middle of the workbook.

She is not tall and ordinary-looking, but her academic performance is better than others.

She is not good at words, so it is difficult for her to make friends with others, and even if no one votes for her, it is something she expected.

The name written in black carbon pen on the note in front of her was enough for Zhao Zhishui to make her whole heart gush with warmth.

This warmth is just like what his father gave him back then.

This father and son are both kind people.

At this moment, there was a knock on Zhao Zhishui's door.

"Stop the water, I bought the cake, come out and eat it."

It was the voice of Zhao Zhishui's father.

"I'll eat later, you can put it on the table first."

"I bought it from the cake shop you go to regularly. I saw the box of the cake you bought before, and I happened to go there to run some errands around when I got off work, so I bought it back by the way. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhishui got up from the desk and walked to the door.

She opened the door from the inside and saw her father standing outside the door, holding a box of cakes from Tang Zhao's family.

Seeing Zhao Zhishui's reaction, his father thought that his supplementary explanation was very useful.

"There's also their new dim sum, called Cat Cake. I don't know if you've eaten it or not, but their little boss gave it to me. The young man is about your age, but he feels quite mature and stable. ”

"Have you seen Tang Xuan?"

Zhao Zhishui suddenly asked his father.

"So you know the little owner of that cake shop, is it your classmate?"

"Hmm."

Zhao Zhishui answered, took the bag in his father's hand, and walked to the living room.

"Mom is on duty at the hospital today, let's eat together."

She suddenly turned back to her father and spoke. Although the tone was still calm and there was no feeling of tenderness and coquettishness, it was enough for her father.

The father and daughter sat on the sofa in the living room, watching the news channel on the TV, each holding a cat cake in their hands.

The cat cake with red bean filling is soft and glutinous and sweet, sweet to the heart.

"Stop the water, this cat cake was given to me by the young man, and the money will be confiscated. Since he's your classmate, next time you invite him to our house for dinner. ”

"He's not coming."

Zhao Zhishui took a bite of the cat cake and replied without thinking about it.

"If you don't do something, it will never come to fruition."

"Hmm."

Zhao Zhishui replied perfunctorily. Seeing this, the father next to him had an idea in his heart.

"Then next time I'll invite him to our house for dinner."

"Don't ...... Don't. ”

A trace of panic flashed on Zhao Zhishui's round face, and he was looked at by the father beside him, and then he noticed that his daughter was different from usual.

"Don't say it, this cat cake is really delicious."

The father smiled, and while praising the cat cake in his hand, he also realized that the taciturn daughter next to him was also in adolescence, and naturally had the troubles of adolescence.

It's better to let the child's mother talk to her about it.

At the same time, Tang Zhao was standing downstairs at Qin Zheng's house, carrying a cat cake in his hand.

Soon after, Qin Zheng went downstairs and successfully met with Tang Zhao.

The moon is sparse, and the community is very quiet, only the street lamps are emitting a soft white light.

"Why are you here so late?"

Faced with Qin Zheng's question, Tang Zhao raised the cat cake in his hand a little higher and showed it to Qin Zheng.

"This is a cat cake, red bean paste, a new product just launched today, I guess you will like it, so I will send you a copy."

"Then you don't have to send it to you, when I pass by your cake shop, I can just buy one myself."

"No, it's different, this is Wang Weishi's cat cake."

"Huh?"

Qin Zheng's gaze as he looked at Tang Yu was full of incredulity.

"I'm sorry, I said it wrong, this is the red bean ...... in Wang Weishi"

Tang Zheng pretended to be embarrassed, and Qin Zheng laughed out loud when he saw this.

Looking at the bright smile on Qin Zheng's face, Tang Zhao knew that it made sense for him to come and give this guy cat cakes while walking.

Of course, he knew that there were no cat cakes in Wang Wei's poems.

This lingering tender lovesickness, he has already handed it over to Qin Zheng himself.
