Chapter 10: The Flood of Arrivals
September 2nd.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, Su Bai had already woken up leisurely from the soft big bed.
The typhoon has left, although it has left a mess all over the ground, but it has also brought rare coolness, which made Su Bai sleep extremely sweet and hearty last night.
"There are five winds outside the curtain, and there is no trace of dreams. Who is the painting floor with again? I remember that the jade hairpin slanted the fire, and the treasure seal became empty......"
There was still a light rain outside, and after washing, Su Bai stood on the balcony and stretched comfortably, looking at the thread outside, lingering, and couldn't help but feel it, shaking his head and reciting a poem first.
Thinking that he had promised Deng Bo and them yesterday that he would sing to them again this afternoon, Su Bai sang an aria after a night in a flowery soprano "ahhhh
After singing, Su Bai felt an uncontrollable sense of fear in his heart, which instantly spread.
I couldn't sing well with a falsetto tenor before, but after professional training, I was barely able to do it, but now I sing it by myself, and it doesn't belong to the category of falsetto tenor, it's completely a real flowery tenor......
Frightened, Su Bai subconsciously pulled away and looked at his eldest brother, and confirmed that it was still there three times, and it was quite long, so he put his mind at ease.
It's not a eunuch, I haven't practiced the Sunflower Treasure Book, it's just pure talent......
"Well, I've become a monster too."
In fact, it is completely underestimated that the original owner is a genius, and Su Bai feels that he is the embodiment of God's creativity in the world.
Su Bai even felt that such a monster should not appear in the human world, after all, the human world was already enough.
But considering that now "the monster is myself", ahem, let's stay for a while, "monsters" also have human rights, at most I promise not to harm the world......
In the fourth morning that has passed, Su Bai still has a lot of discomfort, and even looking in the mirror will inevitably have a sense of panic in his heart, after all, the sense of disobedience of changing a new image does not mean that it can dissipate in an instant if you don't care.
It is said that it takes 21 days to develop a habit, and Su Bai obviously needs more time to slowly adapt and adjust.
And the bad habits he developed in the past are really difficult to change, sitting alone on the balcony, after making a pot of tea, he always wants to order a cigarette.
Even if I don't have a physical addiction to smoking, my addiction is unbearable, and I always feel that something is wrong with my whole body if I don't hold something between my fingers.
After drinking a few cups of weak tea to wake up, Su Bai moved, it was time to start working.
If it was usual, Su Bai only needed to eat breakfast slowly, wait until about 8 o'clock, open the door in the activity, clean up, set up tables and chairs, boil boiling water, and then wait for the elderly in the community to come over, and the day's work task was basically completed.
As long as the old people who play chess, cards and watch TV are harmonious and friendly, and do not stare at them because of regret and cheating, then Su Bai can go back to the room and sleep until the night and then come out and close the door, which is so leisurely that people call Mamma Mia!
But today it is obviously not possible, there are quite a lot of trivial things.
I haven't been out for a few days since I was trapped by the typhoon, and the food in the refrigerator has been exhausted, and many daily necessities have to be replenished, so I have to go out for a big purchase.
At the same time, I also want to buy more pet food, grass and snacks, in addition to the pet dog brought over by the elderly, in order to complete his pension life, Su Bai wanted to try to "kidnap" a few stray kittens to come back and pet.
The lack of a wife and daughter is not in a hurry, and it needs to be considered in the long run, right, but according to Su Bai's experience, unless someone has specially cleaned it, there should be no shortage of stray cats in places like small parks.
Although it is rare to see them on weekdays, if you really want to find them all out and count them, the number may surprise you, and there may be dozens or hundreds of them living in a large community.
In addition, Su Bai also wanted to go out in the morning and visit the musical instrument shop here.
Since he promised to sing to the old man, Su Bai will sing very seriously, and most of the original owner's musical instruments are old goods used for collection and research, and there are not many that can be used, so he has to continue to buy and buy.
and the small courtyard downstairs, which has been completely destroyed by the storm, is also going to be reorganized.
The original owner originally had some chrysanthemums in that kind, but before the autumn came September 8, they had all been sent, which was a pity.
And Su Bai doesn't plan to plant chrysanthemums back as they are, although every Chinese person lives in their hearts a Tao Yuanming, and he always longs for the life of "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely", but it is obviously better to plant some melons, fruits and vegetables, and they can be eaten!
While thinking about what vegetables to grow in his heart, Su Bai went downstairs to prepare to go out, first went to find a breakfast shop to make dish rice noodles to fill his stomach, and then came back to open the door, and only after someone came to play could he go out with confidence.
What he never expected was that as soon as he went downstairs and was about to lock the door and set off, he saw a familiar little figure at the corner of the cobblestone path in front of him, which was Dumbard's little pug that liked to jump......
Immediately, Deng Bo's chubby body also came into view, and behind him, there were one, two, three...... There were as many as 8 people in total, and the large army was talking and laughing, and they were walking towards the activity center.
“......”
Su Bai took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was only 7.10 points, and he couldn't help sighing: "Good guy, why don't you come so early, it's still a group......"
Today's first wave of people is almost half of the "average daily KPI", except for the most lively Saturday, in fact, the activity center usually receives about 15 to 20 elderly people every day.
Anyone who has done community work knows that most of the elderly generally pay little attention to what is happening around the community, they rarely participate in community activities, and rarely use the resources of the community.
Many elderly people don't even know where the neighborhood committee is and what it does, and those who can often come to the activity center to play belong to the activists in the community.
"Hey, White Lord!"
The group also saw Su Bai, who was standing at the door of the activity center, and Deng Bo excitedly waved and said hello loudly from afar, and his hearty voice broke the quiet of the small park in the early morning.
"Hello Deng Bo, hello everyone, why is it so early today?"
Su Bai hurriedly opened the door again.
"Of course I'm here to hear you sing Nanyin!"
"Ah~, it doesn't have to be so early, didn't you say yesterday that you would start singing at three o'clock in the afternoon, you can take a nap after lunch......"
"Hehe, don't blame me, I said you can sing Nanyin, they still don't believe it, oh, Lao Chen is going to pull me over before dawn, and he has to be the wronged boss and gamble with me for morning tea, Nanyuan Restaurant, said that it has been ordered and delivered, who loses and who pays, so what can I do?
"You know, Nanyuan's best thing is Teochew cuisine, and my favorite is beef balls, don't eat it for nothing, don't eat it, be ready to pay, Lao Chen, hahahaha!"
Deng Bo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
To tell the truth, that smug little expression is like a black-hearted dealer who cuts leeks......
"Super! Who pays for it is not certain, Cannon Deng! ”
Uncle Chen glanced at Uncle Deng with contempt, and then asked Su Baidao: "I don't believe his words, I don't believe a word, Lord Bai, you are honest, do you really know how to sing Dishui Nanyin?" ”
At the same time, the other old people also rushed up, and everyone's eyes were like copper bells, shooting out lightning curiosity!
"Yes, Lord Bai, you said it yourself, will it be or not!"
"If it's true, I'll pay for it today!"
"That's Dishui Nanyin, don't talk about today, I'll cover tomorrow's morning tea!"
“......”
Everyone, you say a word to me, and the scene of boiling back is like a scene of forcing the palace......
Su Bai was about to decline, and there were tears in his heart: Who can stand this?
But before the matter was over, and before he could explain, a familiar hearty voice came from not far away.
"Haha, White Lord!"
It was Uncle Wei and a few elderly people who often came to the activity center to play, and they also came in a team.
"Everyone is here, ask, ask, after asking, quickly take out your big red robe, I'll go boil water first, haha!"
After coming over, Uncle Wei only said a word, and then slapped his hands with Deng Bo tacitly, and the two of them laughed and went in to boil water.
And the old man who surrounded Su Bai, whose eyes were like copper bells and full of big question marks, instantly had five more ......
"Ah......h
Su Bai couldn't help but look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and sighed, why didn't he understand in his heart?
This situation is clearly that the two major black villages are taking advantage of the information gap to harvest leeks!
