In a blink of an eye, it has reached the end of August, and it is almost the hottest time in Dongguan now, and the biggest illusion of the subtropical climate is that it seems that the sun is always shining in the sky. Fortunately, the temperature difference between day and night is large, so no matter how hot it is during the day, it is still relatively cool at night.

Life in Dongguan is said to be polarized. Extremely monotonous or extremely rich. Ordinary migrant workers are extremely monotonous, going to work, eating, sleeping, that's all. Others have a strong voice and a complicated relationship between people. And the vast majority of people are conscientious, working from 7 to 7 every day, only looking forward to paychecks, many people will send money back to their hometowns, and then continue to work hard for the next month. Chu Li would go to the bustling area of Houjie every weekend, not to shop, not to eat, drink and have fun, but to go to a large bookstore. There is a wide variety of books inside, and they can be flipped through for free. On this day, he took the bus to the opposite side of the Houjie Holiday Inn and went to buy discounted shirts first. Dongguan Humen is a gathering place for garment factories, summer clothes are relatively cheap in the country, Chuli's height and weight are very symmetrical, and it is not difficult to buy clothes. Half an hour later, I had already finished my clothes for the next season, looked at my phone, and it was almost past twelve o'clock, and I went to the roast restaurant I was most familiar with to eat a roast rice.

Dongguan's roasted meat is very common, and the taste is also very authentic. Roasted meat is mainly pork ribs with skin added to special condiments, through pickling, roasting and drying, and then steaming. An ordinary roasted rice, the price is very affordable, and the portion is also very large. As a native of Hubei, Chu Li's regional taste is spicy and salty, but people are different, his taste is plain, he likes roast meat very much, and he does not resist other Cantonese dishes at all. The roast meat shop is opened by a local grandmother in Dongguan, and there is a helper in the store, her granddaughter, who looks only about 20 years old, and looks very delicate and beautiful. Unlike other local women with high cheekbones and thin faces, they are like Jiangnan girls with big eyes and thin eyebrows, a round apple face, and a Guangdong girl's height advantage and slender body.

Grandma is a very homely person, although Chu Li can only speak a few words of vernacular, there are not many people in the grandma shop, so she likes to ask Chu Li a lot of questions. Where is home, what relatives are there, what university they attended? Chu Li told his grandmother as long as he could say it. Every time I talked about going to college, my grandmother sighed, saying that Xiao Ye's life was hard, and she didn't go to college, so she followed herself to see the store, and the oil and salt came from the smoke. Chu Li didn't dare to ask more, and looked up at Xiao Ye, who never looked at himself. The two barely spoke.

After eating, I thanked my grandmother for giving me more char siu and went to the bookstore. The bookstore is located on the third floor of the Mart Mall, passing through the toy section on the first floor and the women's clothing section on the second floor. Although the whole mall is luxuriously decorated and the service is considerate, the clothing is not as expensive as imagined, and there are still many affordable discounts on sale. Chu Li went straight to the bookstore on the third floor, took a book of electronic technology and thin ice English, and went to the stool in the corner to read it.

Chu Li especially enjoyed such an afternoon, no one bothered him, and he didn't have to pay attention to anyone. It's not purposeful study, it's different from the pressure before exams in college, do what you want, be free, and do what you want. Chu Li's desire for freedom may really outweigh that of any ordinary person.

It wasn't until the sky outside was already gray that Chu Li returned the book, thanked the waiter, and went to the second floor.

At the entrance of the escalator on the second floor, Chu Li saw Chen Si...... Oh, no, it's Chen Jing...... No, it's Chen Si, and if you look closely, it turns out that both of them are there.

Chu Li saw Chen Si get into the pile of clothes for a while, take one out and gesture to the mirror, and then turn in, and after a while, Chen Jing took one out, danced in the mirror, and turned in again, one in and one out, Chu Li thought it was the same person.

"Chu Li!" Chen Jing waved her hand vigorously

"Chen Jing, are you and Chen Si sisters?"

"How did he find out?" Chen Jing smiled and leaned back to look at Chen Si, and Chen Si also pursed her lips and smiled.

"Why are you here so late?"

"It's not too late, I just happened to be on the night shift when I went back."

"Oh, yes. Hello Chen Si! “

"Chu Li, what are you doing here? Wait for someone? I think you've been waiting a long time. Chen Si looked around.

"I didn't wait for anyone. I was reading on the third floor and passing by"

"Then let's go together!" Chen Jing smiled with white teeth.

"Okay, I'll wait for you, you."

When Chen Jing was still picking fat and thin,

Chen Si had already chosen, walked over and asked, "What book are you reading?" ”

"Just take a look."

"Novels?"

"It's not." Chu Li didn't say it was a textbook, for fear that she would find out her boring.

In fact, the difference between Chen Si and Chen Jing is quite big when you look closely. Chen Si's hair is darker, his eyes are bigger, his face is slightly rounder, and his lips are thicker. Speak softly and beautifully. Chen Jing looked thin, taller than Chen Si, with a sharp voice and a loud voice. The strange thing is that every time Chu Li sees his sister Chen Si, he has a feeling of being out of breath, but he has no regard for Chen Jing at all.

"Have you had dinner?" Chen Jing finally picked it out, took a small bag, and ran over.

"Not yet, let's go together, I know a good place to eat." Chu Li smiled mysteriously

"Forget it, Chen Jing, let's go back to the company to eat!"

"Don't, I'll go eat with Chu Li, you can go back alone!"

Chen Si suddenly became alert and said loudly, "No! “

Chen Jing seemed to be frightened and stood still.

Chu Li lowered his head slightly.

Chen thought for a while: "Forget it, let's go together." “

Chen Jing's eyes and eyebrows bent again. Holding Chen Si's hand, he asked Chu Li, "Where are we going to eat?" “

Chu Li said, I know a good place, I'll take you there.

Bypassing the World Trade Mall, in the residential area behind it, it is very inconspicuous - Ye's roast meat, the old grandmother is serving food to the guests, Xiao Ye looked at Chu Li with wide eyes, his bangs were blown up by the wind for a while, revealing thin eyebrows, a strand of hair was wrapped around the back of his ears, and the coiled bun occasionally fell apart, and he ran to his face when he was blown away by the wind.

"Xiaoye, hello!" Chu Li greeted politely.

"Hello! What do you two eat? Xiao Ye turned his head to look at Chen Si and Chen Jing, and was surprised to find that the two were so similar.

Chen Si and Chen Jing looked up and down at the store, watching Chu Li and the old grandmother playing happily, looking for a place to sit as if they were at home, and then looking at Xiao Ye.

"We eat whatever he eats!" Chen Jing stepped into the store with her head held high, her eyes constantly looking at Xiao Ye.

"Okay, I'll be right away!" Xiao Ye turned around, lowered his head to the roast meat stall and began to cut meat.

Chen Si and Chen Jing walked to the table where Chu Li was sitting, pulled out their chairs, and sat down.

"The roasted rice here is delicious!" Chu Li said excitedly.

Chen Jing glanced back at Xiao Ye and pouted, "It's so delicious?" I'd like to taste it! “

Grandma came over enthusiastically and asked Chu Li, "Brought a friend?" These two beautiful girls are good-looking! “

Chu Li said: "It's my colleague, grandma, your roasted rice is so good, you must introduce more people!" “

"You're still sensible!" Grandma gently pressed Chu Li's shoulder with her hand. He lowered his body and asked softly, "Are you a female side?" ”

"No, no, no."

Grandma laughed and walked away.

Chen Jing moved away from Chen Si, sat on Chu Li's bench, and said with a smile, "Why is the boss so familiar with you?" “

"I've always come here to eat, every week."

From the direction where Chu was sitting, I just saw Xiao Ye's busy back, a little thin, but very quiet. Chen Jing looked at Xiao Ye and asked Chu Li, "Is Xiao Ye your favorite type?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Chu Li glanced at Chen Si. found that Chen Sizheng was looking at him, his eyes were a little serious.

After a while, three servings of roast rice were served, and grandma followed Xiao Ye, complaining why she didn't let her serve it, she had to bring it herself, Xiao Ye cautiously walked to the table, and carefully served it to everyone's eyes one by one.

"Why does he have so much meat!" Chen Jing glanced at Chu Li's bowl and protested loudly.

Xiao Ye's face turned red all of a sudden, turned around and went into the kitchen, and grandma hurriedly said, "It's all the same, oops, children can't do things, don't blame it." Hurriedly took a bowl and smiled and added two pieces of roast meat to Chen Si and Chen Jing each.

Except for Chen Jing's chatter during the meal, Chen Si said very little, and Chu Li occasionally met Chen Si's eyes, but they all tacitly avoided it. It's so good to boast once in a while. After eating, the three of them said goodbye to their grandmother and took the bus home, Chen Jing looked very excited along the way, saying that she would come to eat in the future, but she didn't expect it to taste so good, but the girl was a little annoying, and she gave her so little meat. Chen Si scolded her, you are not afraid of gaining weight if you give you more?

When he arrived at the door of the company, it was already dark, and Chen Si said to Chen Jing: "You go to work directly, it's almost over." “

"Okay, then Chu Li, you can send my sister back to the dormitory." After thinking for a while, he quietly approached and whispered, "Don't like my sister!" “

Her nonsense made him helpless, but he felt his face burned, "Go to work!" “

The two watched Chen Jing walk in the direction of the factory, and Chen Si said, "You don't have to send it, it's not far away anyway." “

Chu Li was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Okay, then...... Stay safe. ”

After taking two steps back, Chen Si said, "It's better to send it to me." ”

Chu Li was a little surprised, and suddenly became happy in his heart, feeling distressed, but his face pretended to be serious, "Go." ”

The men's and women's dormitories, as well as the factories, are located in three different directions, with the women's dormitories at the bottom of the feather-shaped industrial park and the men's dormitories going out of the industrial park gates. Under the conditions, there are six workers in one room, and two engineers and office staff in one room.

Along the way, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Chu Li's palms were sweating. I don't know what to say.

"There's a table over there, let's sit down for a while." Chen Si proposed.

"Okay, but don't you want to go back to rest sooner?" Chu Li was very surprised

"I have something to ask you." Chen Si's tone was very serious.

"You've been in jail?"

"......" Chu Li looked at Chen Si's eyes and nodded firmly, "Yes"

"My sister is very simple and young. It's a big grin, sometimes the behavior is a bit bold, don't get me wrong. She doesn't understand the complexities of society, I'm afraid she will be bullied, you can understand that, right? ”

"Hmm."

"Keep a little distance from her in the future, okay?"

"Okay."

"I'm sorry, you're not a bad person, but I'm just this sister, I hope you understand......"

"I understand." Chu Li found that the sweat in his palms had become cold. "I'm just being her sister."

"Alright, send me back now." Chen Si's mood seemed to have changed a little better.

Along the way, Chu Li felt that Chen Si wanted to speak and stopped, he knew what she wanted to ask. He was grateful that she hadn't really asked.
