Chapter 40: Friends

As soon as Chen Fan's words fell, Jiang Lili's blood and qi were surging up, her face was flushed, even her ears were red, and she saw a burst of fine sweat on her forehead.

Seeing her like this, Chen Fan suddenly chuckled in his heart.

It's broken.

I drank two taels of wine, my mouth didn't close the door, and I didn't pay attention to what I said.

Jiang Lili had been living cautiously here, and whether she knew or not, there were some things she couldn't say.

It's nothing to say a joke by herself, but in her ears, she only thinks about the worst in her heart.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan hurriedly said, "What, I'm just kidding, you won't be angry, right?" ”

Jiang Lili walked forward with her head tied up, muffled and silent.

Chen Fan raised his hand, but he didn't dare to reach over and pull her. At this time, he had already woken up for most of the time, thinking of this era and Jiang Lili's situation, if someone saw him pulling with her, he was afraid that something big would happen.

If you dig a pit yourself, you have to bury it yourself.

He had to take two quick steps and said with a wry smile, "I'm just kidding." Look at me, I don't know where I came from, and I don't know if Zhu Gong'an can help me find my family, of course thank God I can find someone, if I can't find it, it's unknown where I will go in the future. In my case, I don't have to worry about it all day. ”

Sell a miserable first to arouse the sympathy of the little girl, Chen Fan glanced at Jiang Lili, and sure enough, her pace slowed down.

I was immediately relieved, and then I continued to work hard.

"Alas, I still remember that after I woke up the day before yesterday, I was surrounded by so many people, and my stomach was rumbling with hunger, but I didn't dare to move, for fear of being regarded as a bad person by everyone. Later, when they left, I almost fainted from hunger, and then you suddenly came to ask me to eat, and in my eyes, you are a living bodhisattva and a great savior. ”

Jiang Lili's steps were even slower, but she still didn't look up.

But Chen Fan knew that the problem should not be big, so he was even more relaxed in his heart, and said with a smile, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I can't eat your food, food is expensive, and it can save lives at critical moments." But I was so hungry that I ate it cheekily, and even ate two large bowls in a row. At that time, I must have been so scared that I didn't even dare to eat the vegetables, and only nibbled on the sauce radish. ”

Jiang Lili, "No." ”

Chen Fan was stunned and turned his head to look at her, "Huh? What? ”

The voice was too quiet, and I didn't pay attention to it, and I didn't even hear what she was saying.

Jiang Lili raised her head and glanced at him, and Chen Fan found that her face was also slightly better, and her face was not so red.

Seeing Chen Fan's gaze, she quickly lowered her head again, and after two seconds, she continued, "I said that I was not frightened by you, you were quite elegant when you ate, although you ate quickly, but you didn't look rude." I'm just used to eating pickles, and that day's dish was specially made for you. ”

"Oh, yes."

Chen Fan smiled, "I'm a little curious, there are so many dishes in the backyard, why don't you eat them?" ”

Jiang Lili lowered her head, "I don't want to cook so much by myself, just eat some pickles." ”

After a pause, she suddenly raised her head again, looked back and forth cautiously, then looked at Chen Fan, pursed her lips and whispered,

"Last year, I read an article in the newspaper about people like me who were criticized for being hedonistic because they ate a bowl of fried cabbage with oil residue. If I eat too well and be seen, some people may gossip, so I only eat pickles when I eat. ”

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head again, "This is a secret in my heart, and I haven't told anyone else." ”

Chen Fan looked at her, and suddenly felt a little distressed, this little girl was only 17 years old, just because she was worried about other people's evaluations, she kept so many fresh dishes but didn't eat them, which really made him not know what to say.

When he reacted, he smiled reluctantly, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you and won't tell anyone." ”

The corners of Jiang Lili's mouth curled up slightly, and she nodded slightly.

It's just that she is still holding her head, and Chen Fan can't see it.

At this time, they had already reached the Zhiqing point, and after the two entered the door, Chen Fan closed the door and whispered to her, "Look, the day before yesterday, you invited me to dinner, and in the evening, you helped me make soft-shelled turtles, you didn't know, I picked up the soft-shelled turtle, and when I went to find Captain Yang and them, I was laughed at by them." ”

Jiang Lili pursed her lips and smiled, "It's true that no one here has ever eaten soft-shelled turtles before." ”

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "So, it's very rare that you are willing to help me." From that moment on, I considered you a friend. I just told you about my secret drinking, and I told you a joke, because I really treat you as a friend. ”

Jiang Lili raised her head to look at him, her eyes flashing with a bit of brilliance, "Friend? ”

Three years ago, she had a lot of good friends at school, but after the accident at home, all her friends cut off her relationship, and in the past three years, except for her parents and sister, she has never made a friend.

Not to mention friends, even if it is an educated youth who lives under one roof, no one is close to her, but now Chen Fan says that he treats her as a friend?

Chen Fan nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, friend." There was no one else just now, just a little joke between friends, aren't you angry? ”

Jiang Lili bit her lip, and was just about to lower her head, but she quickly held back and shook her head gently, "Don't be angry." ”

After a pause, he said, "Originally, I wasn't angry. ”

I really didn't get angry just now, but I just felt sad.

"Haha, it's good that you're not angry."

Chen Fan snorted and said with a smile, "My personality is that kind of big grin, sometimes I can't talk with my brain, if I say the wrong thing one day in the future, don't take it to heart, tell me directly, I apologize to you." ”

Jiang Lili pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile, "It's okay." ”

She thought about it, turned her head to look at the courtyard gate, and then whispered to Chen Fan, "I heard the members of the club chatting and said that the pig killer at the food station went to the countryside to kill pigs, and according to the regulations, he was charged 2 yuan, and no other things were allowed. But in addition to money, the host's family will generally entertain a wine and dinner, and give some pork and pig's trotters when leaving.

If you don't have money, you can put the whole pig in the water, which is worth about 5 yuan in total, which is about the same as 2 yuan and pork trotters. Originally, according to the regulations, these were to be handed in, but very few of them were actually handed in, and they were all held by themselves.

So when you see someone killing a pig and someone giving money, don't ask, so that the pig killer will be unhappy when he hears it. ”

Chen Fan nodded suddenly, "I see." ”

Then he smiled at her, "Okay, I understand, I promise not to ask in the future." ”

Jiang Lili nodded, "If you don't understand anything, come back and ask me, and I'll tell you what I know." ”

Chen Fan grinned, and he didn't blame her for not saying it just now, but only saying it now.

Since we are friends, we need to be more understanding. There must always be a process of trust between people, and if she asks and tells herself everything, it will not be possible to live in peace until now.

It's good now, I have the first person in the village who can say something, although it is only a marginal educated youth, but it is also a good start, and its significance is no less than teaching everyone to make soft-shelled turtles.

That's right, soft-shelled turtles.

Chen Fan patted his head and walked to the kitchen, "I'll boil some hot water to wash my face, I have to rush to Team 5 to be a master." ”

Jiang Lili looked at his back and smiled, then quickly followed, "I'll help you." ”
