Chapter 191: Can You Hear Me?

Lin Zhiwan has a beginning and an end to housework, and the dishes here have just been served on the table, and she has already washed the pot over there.

The stove was clean as if it hadn't been used at all.

There are a total of four dishes on the table, squirrel osmanthus fish, braised pork ribs, and fried meat with chili peppers, all of which were ordered by Su Chengyi.

Lin Zhiwan couldn't see that there were no green vegetables on the table, so she fried another small cabbage.

Several dishes are beautifully colored and full of aroma.

He hadn't eaten since last night until noon today, and when he was urged by this aroma, Su Chengyi felt hungry in hindsight.

Lin Zhiwan brought two bowls of rice over.

Because he lives alone and doesn't cook, Su Chengyi's rice bowls are all big bowls used to eat instant noodles.

Lin Zhiwan's rice only occupies the bottom of a bowl, while Su Chengyi's is full of a big bowl.

Su Chengyi's chopsticks first stretched out to the squirrel Guiyu that he was thinking about.

Lin Zhiwan is obviously a person who pays attention to the appearance of dishes, and is a typical Chinese chef who is very particular.

First of all, the presentation is very exquisite, and it looks no different from what the chef of Songhelou makes.

The fried mandarin fish has an upturned head and tail, and the skin is golden and crispy, and when it is poured with sauce, it turns red.

Because the shape was too exquisite, Su Chengyi even hesitated where to start with chopsticks.

In the end, hunger defeated OCD, and he picked a large piece from the middle of the fish's belly.

In Lin Zhiwan's expectant eyes, she blew the hot air and tasted it.

The fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the sauce is sweet and sour, and the entrance is extremely delicious.

Su Chengyi immediately gave a thumbs up with his left hand in the palm bowl.

It's really delicious.

and the chef of Songhelou have their own strengths, in short, they are all tastes that you will never forget.

What's more, Lin Zhiwan probably has no professional training, and she is really powerful by relying on her own talent.

Su Chengyi has always felt that a person like her, who is missing a certain part, will definitely have a new shining point in another part.

It turns out that it is, and there is far more than a certain part of her shining body.

Seeing Su Chengyi's satisfied expression all the time, Lin Zhiwan put the hanging heart back into her stomach and breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for the specialty dish of squirrel and cinnamon fish, the other dishes are also remarkable.

The braised pork ribs are bright in color, the meat is soft and rotten, and the bones are removed when you bite into it, and the combination with the spicy and fragrant chili fried meat next door is completely a rice elimination machine.

Lin Zhiwan ate it in small bites, and from time to time he grabbed a chopstick of cabbage.

As soon as Su Chengyi looked up, he saw her gesturing with a smile:

"You can't just eat meat, you have to eat more vegetables."

It's like supervising a child's meal.

Su Chengyi himself is not a picky eater, and this plate of cabbage is also fried delicious, refreshing and greasy.

Originally, he thought that this instant noodle bowl was a little too big, but he didn't expect to eat it very smoothly.

After feasting, Su Chengyi got up and poured two glasses of water and handed them to Lin Zhiwan.

Seeing her look of serious drinking, he gave a thumbs up and said "thank you".

Lin Zhiwan hurriedly put down the water glass,

"No, I'm going to thank you."

Su Chengyi pulled the chair next to her and sat down, leaning back slightly, with an expression of "what do you want to thank me".

The two of them sat facing each other when they were eating, and now the distance has been narrowed a little closer.

Lin Zhiwan's expression immediately became a little flustered, she lowered her head and took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind.

Then she turned around and took the white canvas bag hanging behind the chair, took out a small object from it, and handed it over.

Su Chengyi took it and saw that it was actually a sachet pendant.

Round, less than the size of the palm, worn with a tassel chain, with the aroma of wormwood.

The pattern on the surface should be hand-embroidered, delicate, with some bright red accents on the green foliage.

There is also the word "peace" next to it.

Su Chengyi took it in his hand and pinched it, it was soft, and it should have been filled with cotton sewn inside.

"Did you do it yourself?"

Lin Zhiwan nodded slightly nervously.

Su Chengyi thought that when she went to the olive area to find Xiao Feige that day, she was teaching the old lady in the neighborhood embroidery over there.

"It's beautiful, is this a cherry?"

Lin Zhiwan was very happy when she saw him compare "beautiful", but when she saw him ask "Is it a cherry", she shook her head in a panic.

Not a cherry?

Su Chengyi was curious, and looked at it again and again.

"What's that?"

Lin Zhiwan still shook her head,

"Not a cherry anyway."

How can it be mysterious?

Su Chengyi took it in his hand again and weighed it carefully, but he still didn't see what it was.

The first exclusion is durian, and the second is definitely not pineapple, nor watermelon.

It can't be an apple, right?

Forget it, it's definitely some kind of fruit anyway.

Maybe it's some kind of wild fruit in his blind spot.

"Can I hang it on my bag?"

Su Chengyi really liked it, and asked with a smile.

"Absolutely."

Seeing that he liked it, Lin Zhiwan was even more happy, and nodded busily.

Su Chengyi walked back to the room and took out his empty schoolbag and handed it to her.

"I don't know how this is tied."

Lin Zhiwan smiled lightly, carefully tied the sachet to the strap of his schoolbag, and raised his head again:

"Peace."

"Yes, peace."

Su Chengyi learned from her appearance.

The black schoolbag is hung with such a red and white pendant, as if adding a bright embellishment.

Lin Zhiwan watched him lift his schoolbag to show him, and the tight strings in his heart finally relaxed.

She has been thinking about what gift to buy for Su Chengyi, after all, a person like him seems to lack nothing.

Later, the neighbor's grandmother told her that the heart is the most important thing.

She learned embroidery from her mother when she was a child.

Generally speaking, it is to embroider some small gadgets that are easy to sell, such as small purses, small dolls and the like.

The town gathers once every half a month, and she and her mother can embroider a basket together and sell it together.

Both of them are ingenious and sell cheaply, so these gadgets sell well and are snatched up by a swarm of bees every time.

The money from the sale can be used to supplement the family, and sometimes her mother will reward her by buying her a piece of candy or something.

It's not those delicately packaged candies now, generally speaking, it's a whole piece of white, and if you say how much you want to buy, he will knock a small piece down and give it to you.

Let today's children eat, it will definitely be disliked.

Sticky and rough, at most sweet to taste.

But for Lin Zhiwan at that time, it was really a great reward.

She would take it, but she would never eat it, and would take it home for her brother to eat.

Once, when the weather was too hot, she carried it close to her again, and when she came home, it had turned into a mess of mud and had no original shape.

Lin Tong was still young at that time and didn't want to eat it, so she had to eat it herself.

It was like the first time I tasted sweetness in my memory.

After knowing that sugar tasted like this, she didn't eat it even more.

Although Sister Yang now gives a very high salary, which is so high that she didn't dare to think before, she has long been accustomed to compressing her needs.

If Su Chengyi knew, he would definitely show that "I don't understand" expression.

Lin Zhiwan thought so, and was glad that he wouldn't know these things.

She didn't know that in fact, from the fact that she only bought a lollipop today, Su Chengyi had already guessed a rough idea.

Seeing that she was a little distracted, Su Chengyi put the schoolbag aside, thought about it, and compared:

"Gifts are still exchanged, and I have something for you."

Lin Zhiwan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously shook her head.

"No, it's not for you, it's for you."

Su Cheng thought about it and rephrased it.

At this time, Lin Zhiwan was even more panicked, and hurriedly glanced at the sachet he had just hung up.

"Close your eyes."

Su Chengyi didn't plan to explain again, and asked directly.

Although Lin Zhiwan was nervous and worried, she closed her eyes honestly when she saw that he couldn't help but say something.

Su Chengyi took out the hearing aid from his shirt pocket.

He checked the information in advance and knew how to wear this.

But looking at it, when I really want to get started on my own, I am still a little nervous.

He held it carefully, but he didn't expect that as soon as his fingers touched behind Lin Zhiwan's ear, she bounced away like an electric shock, and her hands also reached over in a panic to block it.

Su Chengyi suddenly realized that Lin Zhiwan didn't hear and couldn't speak, and now he made her close her eyes again.

In her world, it was a completely dark and silent environment.

Originally, she was asked to close her eyes so that she would not be nervous, but now it seems that she is more nervous.

But despite this, she still closed her eyes honestly, Su Chengyi sighed, reached out and patted her, wanting to signal that she could open her eyes.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiwan seemed to be mistaken, her fingers trembled, and she grabbed his wrist.

It's good.

Su Chengyi felt some rough skin on her fingertips, and thought about asking Yang Liu to give her a few bottles of hand cream.

Lin Zhiwan, who had something to rely on, seemed to be a little more settled, Su Chengyi no longer hesitated, and carefully put the hearing aid into her ear according to the method taught in the video.

What he doesn't know is that people with hearing loss are very sensitive to their ears and are rarely willing to let others touch them.

Lin Zhiwan felt the warm fingertips carrying the cold object into her ears, and then the world suddenly became lively.

Voices that hadn't been heard in a long time came to the ears from all directions.

The sound of people pulling chairs upstairs, the chatter and laughter of passers-by in the alleys, the sound of the wind coming from the open windows.

and the clear and gentle voice of the young man next to him, he said:

"Can you hear me?"

That's what his voice looks like.

Lin Zhiwan was a little stunned when she heard this, and slowly opened her eyes.

Su Chengyi frowned slightly, he now wondered if there was something wrong with the hearing aids.

Why didn't it happen?

knows that Wu Bin is not a reliable guy.

He replied to the sign language and asked:

"Can't you hear me?"

Lin Zhiwan shook her head, nodded again, and finally remembered to play sign language:

"Speak again."

Su Chengyi suddenly felt that her eyes seemed to be red, and her tears flickered.

Being looked at by such eyes, Su Chengyi's vocal cords seemed to be out of order, and he almost forgot how to make a sound.

"Can you hear me?"

He had no choice but to say dryly.

Lin Zhiwan nodded with teary eyes.

"Ah, that's good."

Su Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought it wasn't fixed, I'm ready to go find that guy"

"When did you take this and fix it? How much did it cost? ”

After Lin Zhiwan realized this problem, she immediately took out her wallet again.

Su Chengyi smiled and replied truthfully:

"It didn't cost money, it was introduced by an acquaintance."

This is indeed true, so there is no psychological pressure on him to say it.

"Really?"

Lin Zhiwan was still a little skeptical, but looking at his calm look, he couldn't tolerate no one to believe it.

"Then I should go and thank them."

She blinked, her face sincere.

Su Chengyi tried to think about Liang Nina's appearance when she saw Lin Zhiwan.

She would definitely immediately regard Lin Zhiwan as an imaginary enemy.

Forget it.

"I've thanked you for it."

Su Chengyi waved his hand.

No one would have imagined the scene of an asteroid hitting the Earth.

Because he was worried that Lin Zhiwan hadn't heard anyone speak for too long, his tone was deliberately slow, and he felt almost like the lightning in "Zootopia".

For fear that a loud noise would stimulate her hearing.

The mobile phone rang loudly at this time.

Su Chengyi's eyes were quick, and he immediately pressed the answer button, and looked at Lin Zhiwan a little apologetically.

The latter was thinking at this time, it turned out that the mobile phone was ringing so loudly.

Her phone is always vibrated to the maximum, so the ringtone automatically follows the maximum.

Then others will find it noisy.

Lin Zhiwan's heart immediately felt sorry, and secretly apologized to those who were noisy.

It was Xu Yang's call.

"Hello? Meaning total! ”

Compared with Xu Yang's own loudspeaker, Fang Cai's bell can be said to be a small thing.

"Huh?"

Su Chengyi silently covered the earpiece with his hand.

"Mr. Yi?! Are you listening?? Why is it silent! ”

Xu Yang was very noisy over there, and he probably couldn't hear it clearly.

Su Chengyi sighed, but he was still afraid of making a noise to Lin Zhiwan, so he still lowered his voice and replied:

"You say, I'm listening."

"Oh, I can hear you, don't you mean why you speak so gently today?

Make no mistake, I'm Xu Yang, your best brother, I'm not a pretty sister. ”

"Hung up."

Patience was exhausted, and Su Chengyi brushed aside two words.

"Hey, don't, don't!"

Knowing that he had always said that he would hang up, Xu Yang quickly put away his hippie smile.

"We're still active here, when are you coming?"

"Do I have to come?"

Su Chengyi's words already mean that there is a 98% chance that he will not go.

"That's not it, it's just-"

Xu Yang elongated his tone and smiled,

"Wood has something to tell you."

Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows, glanced at Lin Zhiwan, who was in a trance, and let go of the hand covering the earpiece.

"Mr. Yi."

Lin Tong's tone of voice was weak, obviously suffering a lot of damage.

"What's wrong? What's going on over there. ”

Su Chengyi couldn't help but smile and asked.

Of course, Xu Yang wouldn't really embarrass Lin Tong or anything like that, the only possibility is that the people there are too enthusiastic about him and can't resist him.

"They. You're so welcoming, me. I don't get along with people like that, hey, it's my own problem. ”

Lin Tong sighed and said.

Lin Zhiwan heard Lin Tong's voice at this time, frowned, and looked very worried.

Su Chengyi looked at her expression, raised his wrist and looked at his watch.

It's really not okay not to go on this trip.

"Okay, you hold on a little longer, I'll come over later."

As soon as Su Chengyi's words fell, there was a sound of cheering from the earpiece.

"Oh yes!!"

"I can finally see me this time!"

"Don't make any noise, don't you see that I'm studying temporarily?"

"Learn what? Let me see. ”

"How to Catch Kaizi."

“.”

Su Chengyi was silent for a while.

Is there really such a book in the world???

followed by Xu Yang's voice:

"Are you all ready to greet me?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you push WeChat to me first."

"I'll add it first, I'll add it first."

"Don't make a fuss, you guys will take care of him for a while"

Su Chengyi sighed and hung up the phone.

Lin Zhiwan's eyes became even more worried, and she asked worriedly:

"Are you really going?"

"It's fine."

Su Chengyi pretended to wave his hand easily.

"Do you want me to come with you?"

Lin Zhiwan looked ready to die generously at any time.

But she didn't seem to be able to deal with this kind of occasion than Lin Tong.

"Forget it. You go home and get some rest, get used to your hearing aids, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact me and I'll take you to that repairman. ”

He still slowed down this long list of words, and Lin Zhiwan also listened patiently with his ears sideways. After a long time, he nodded.
