Chapter 7 This abacus can be heard next door
Sister-in-law Bian didn't seem to notice it, and pulled Ao Jing to the family courtyard next door, and pointed out several family areas to her on the way.
"I ordered sea duck eggs at Lao Gao's house in the fishing village, and I made salted eggs for you to try. Our sea duck eggs here are much better than the regular duck eggs outside. ”
"Sister-in-law is a local?"
"yes, I'm from Gaocuo, what's wrong, it's not like it?"
Ao Jing pursed his lips and shook his head with a smile.
Most of the local girls are very thin and dark, and they are short, but the sister-in-law is not, and she looks like a northern girl.
"My dad is from the north and my mom is local. In the early years, my father was a seafarer here, and once he had an accident, he was rescued by my mother, and then he stayed here, with me, two younger brothers and a younger sister below. ”
Sister-in-law Bian brushed her hair and looked at Ao Jing with a smile: "I'll take you to my mother's house to play another day." There are tidal flats on my side, and you can also fish, which is fun. ”
It wasn't early, the two broke up at the back door of the family home, Bian's sister-in-law hurriedly rode away, Ao Jingmu saw her leave, tilted her head, and walked to the dormitory while thinking about what Bian's sister-in-law had just said.
The dormitory lights were on, Ao Jing thought that her brother was coming, ran up in three steps and two steps, pushed the door and looked, and it turned out that Lan Lan was sitting at her desk, reading what she wrote.
Ao Jing's eyes sank for a moment, and then he laughed.
"Sister Lan has been waiting for me for a long time, I went to Captain Bian's house for dinner, and I didn't have time to say hello to you, I'm really sorry."
Lan Lan's fingers trembled slightly, and she got up and turned to Ao Jing.
"It's okay, your brother told me. By the way, what are these you writing about? ”
Ao Jing looked at her hand and smiled shyly: "This is the note I made." I didn't go to the survey station under the Oceanic Bureau to look for a job, I just wanted to learn more about this from books, at least I didn't know how to answer any questions. ”
"Can you read it?"
"Yes, I'm literate, but I don't understand some technical terms. But when I went to apply for the job, the leader said that if there is anything I don't understand, I can ask them. ”
Ao Jing walked over, closed the materials smoothly, and pulled Lan Lan to the small square table and sat down.
I took out the lunch box from my cloth pocket and opened it, and the aroma came out all of a sudden.
"This is the crispy saury I made at Captain Bian's house tonight, and my sister-in-law said it was not bad, let me bring it back and drink it for my brother. It's a pity that my brother didn't have a good time working overtime, so let's do it. ”
She didn't have any wine here, so she directly scooped two spoonfuls of malt milk essence and mixed them with boiling water, and shared a glass with Lan Lan.
"Sister, I will replace wine with water, thank you Sister Lan for taking care of me these days. In the future, I will have a salary at work and can support myself, so you and my brother don't worry about me, you should take care of the two of you. ”
Lan Lan smiled a little reluctantly when she heard Ao Jing say this.
Ao Jing carefully observed her expression, and asked her tentatively, "Sister Lan, did my brother make you angry?" You tell me, I'll help you scold him. ”
"No, it's okay, it's just, it's just a little problem, you don't have to worry about it."
Ao Jing bit the tip of his tongue and looked at Lan Lan cautiously.
"Did my brother make you angry about giving me money?"
"No, no, no, don't think about it."
Lan Lan was a little anxious, "I just had a little disagreement with him about promotion, nothing else, really nothing." ”
Ao Jing let out an "oh", nodded slightly, and did not continue to ask.
After waiting for a while and not waiting for Ao Jing's question, Lan Lan choked in her throat and smiled even more reluctantly.
"If he can't go any further next year, he'll probably have to change units. I told him to talk to the detachment leader, and he wasn't happy. ”
Lan Lan lowered her head after speaking, her short hair covering most of her face.
Ao Jing suddenly understood the meaning of Sister-in-law Bian's previous words.
belittled her in front of Sister-in-law Bian, because he was worried that the captain of the Bian detachment and his sister-in-law would help him find a job, right?
The favor he got from saving people, Lan Lan planned to let his eldest brother use it for his promotion?
I also want to know how the eldest brother will choose.
Lan Lan's plan was doomed to fail, and she made the wrong first step.
When Ao Jing was still racking her brains to say something and think about how to deal with Lan Lan's complaints, her brother Ao Hai pushed the door in with a black face.
Seeing that his brother's expression was not good, Ao Jing stood up and spoke first.
"Brother, are you off work? If you don't eat, you sit down for a while, and I'll cook you a bowl of noodles. ”
Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, Ao Jing rushed out of the door and left Lan Lan to her brother to solve it by herself.
When I ran to the common kitchen, I found that I didn't bring anything, and I was too embarrassed to go back to get it, so I just went out and bought a fried noodles and a plate of fried clams, and got a bottle of white for my eldest brother.
Fortunately, there are many units in the vicinity, many people who go to and from the night shift have to eat, and the roadside food stalls are basically open until the early hours of the morning.
When Ao Jing returned with food, he found that Lan Lan had already left.
She put something on the table and nudged the shoulder of her eldest brother, who was sitting there stiffly.
"Brother, did you quarrel with Sister Lan? I thought to myself, Sister Lan's idea was actually right......"
"No more." Ao Hai's face sank, and he looked out the window, "I, Ao Hai, can't do anything to encroach on other people's credit, let alone that you are still my sister." Besides, you need this favor more than I do. ”
Ao Jing opened his mouth and wanted to say that he didn't need it, but when he saw that his brother was angry, he didn't dare to twist it with him, so he could only coquettishly coax him to eat supper first.
"Brother, I'll tell you something."
Lying on the table to watch her brother eat, Ao Jing puffed out her cheeks, "Our leader said that his lover teaches in the town, and he can help me get a place to study in night school." When the work is done, I plan to go to night school. ”
"Okay, go ahead, it's good to learn more."
Ao Hai definitely supports his sister if she wants to be motivated.
"My brother gave you the money for your study, and you kept the salary or something. The little girl's family, buy some beautiful clothes, and dress up. ”
Ao Jing looked at her brother silly, "Brother, if you are so considerate to Sister Lan, I don't have to worry about your marriage to her." ”
"The problems between me and your Sister Lan are not accumulated in the past two days, or one or two things. Forget it, let's see, there are some things that can't be forced. ”
"Actually, Sister Lan is not for you. You see, I've got a job now, and that favor is still there, so it's better to use it. ”
The favor is used up, and both sides are at ease.
"No matter how incompetent I am Ao Hai, it is impossible for me to do such a thing." Ao Hai poked his sister's forehead with chopsticks, "Your brother can go up even if he doesn't need this favor, technology is the foundation of my life." ”
"You're in charge of logistics, but also technology......"
Looking at his sister's little expression of disgust, Ao Haile was happy.
"Don't underestimate your brother's work. What's wrong with logistics? Who says logistics doesn't need technology? ”
"Let me tell you, our unit is different from other units, what equipment and equipment need to be brought with us every time we go on a mission, how to continue at sea, and how to arrange the connection of supplies. These are all very important, and if one link is not connected, then it will have to delay the big thing. ”
"Your brother and I have been doing this job several times since I made third-class merits."
Looking at his brother's confident appearance, Ao Jing bit his lip and snickered.
Such a brother is the most shining.
