Chapter 10: Women are like water, so tears are like wounds? (End)
Fudong Village is just a road away from Lin Qing’s house. To the west of Chen Yi’s house, it is a local village. There is a garden, but Chen Yi rarely comes.
After entering the village, I couldn't help but be surprised by the rows of snack vendors at the entrance of the village.
It's been a long time since he visited the vendors.
He was in Black Cat during the summer vacation, so he only went to the food stalls at most. But in fact, he liked the flavor of the vendors because the ingredients were simple and extreme, and the stimulation of the taste was stronger than the food in the hotel, which was particularly good for his appetite. Because Xiao Le never visited him in the past two years, he gradually hadn't eaten much, so he was limited to eating beef balls from Shiduo's soup at the school gate.
"Four steamed buns."
Chen Yi paid two dollars.
"Four strings of crisp bones, one eggplant."
Chen Yi paid another three yuan and five yuan to the barbecue stall owner.
“Two small bottles of Coke.”
“I’m not thirsty.”
"Uncle, add two more strings of brittle bones."
7.5, all payments are accurate.
Lin Qing forced two steamed buns to him, but Chen Yi said she was not hungry, but was forced to pick him up.
"You will want a second one after eating." Lin Qing asserted confidently.
Chen Yi opened the paper that wrapped the steamed buns and took a bite. She was very surprised that the soft taste and slight sweetness were not comparable to those I had eaten in the past. So she stretched out her hand very simply.
"Give it the second one."
Lin Qing chuckled.
Chen Yi glanced at the uncle who sold steamed buns. He was about 40 years old. Judging from his skin color, he had been in the countryside for a long time, and his hands were very thick.
"I can't tell that this uncle's craftsmanship is so amazing."
"They are truly secret recipes of ancestral origin. The ancestors were famous for selling steamed buns. Generations have relied on this secret recipe to avoid getting poor. Do you know how much he earns in a day here?"
"How many?"
"The net profit is more than 300 yuan, which is very stable, and occasionally it can reach six or seven hundred."
This is very exaggerated. However, Chen Yi thinks the taste of this steamed bun is so attractive, and the location is also good. There are actually a lot of passers-by in front of the entrance of the village, especially in the morning.
"That's amazing."
"But I have no ambitions. Many people wanted to ask him to make steamed buns elsewhere but were rejected. First, they were afraid that the secret recipe would be secretly learned, and second, they just wanted to save enough money to go back to their hometown. They came here to earn money for his third son to marry a wife and build a house. His wife was also at home, and she was quite lonely here alone."
As he was talking, Chen Yike's machine rang. He looked down and didn't recognize the number.
Lin Qing giggled.
"Don't you have no money to call back?"
Of course not. Just seven.5.
Lin Qing glanced at the public phone on the counter of Shiduo Store behind him.
"I'll lend you."
"My face is over today." Chen Yi said, picking up the phone to reply.
The sound of a snake came from the other end of the phone.
"Brother Chen, do you have time to come out to drink at night?"
Chen Yi almost thought that he would hang up the phone as if it was not connected. He asked him for the shamelessness to borrow 50 cents?
"One other day."
"Where is Brother Chen?"
Chen Yi felt that something was wrong in the snake's voice, which was a tone of asking with motivation and suppressing his emotions and trying to pretend to be nothing. So he recalled the number.
"I'm treating Lin Qing to eat steamed buns."
"Ah?" The snake boy was surprised, and there was a kind of suppressed thing that completely released emotions hidden in it. Chen Yi knew that he was right.
"Let's talk about it later. I don't have money to pay the phone bill now."
"Brother Chen, don't forget to say a few good things for me..."
"Okay, okay..." Chen Yi looked at it for less than a minute and hung up the line.
Lin Qing took a 50 cent coin and handed it to the owner of the Shiduan store.
Xuan glanced at Chen Yi again and said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, you are so honest to your friends!"
Chen Yi didn't say anything. He knew Lin Qing could guess the situation.
Think about this number carefully. Those who know the number division of this city have a little knowledge of the number division will know that it is in this area, and it will definitely not be far away. Snake Zai suddenly asked him on the phone where he was. With that kind of depression, it was obvious that he was nearby. He called the sci-fi machine after seeing them. If he lies, the other end would definitely be misunderstood. He simply said that Snake Zai would not be too careful.
"Actually, the snake boy is good."
Lin Qing burst into laughter.
"I—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Lin Qing raised his tone, a very exaggerated way to go. Although he didn't shout, it was not small. Many diners nearby turned their heads and looked around curiously.
Chen Yi knew that she was deliberately letting the snake hiding nearby hear it.
"Hey, don't be so cruel!" Chen Yi couldn't help but blame him a little when he thought of how frustrated the snake was at this moment.
"This kind of thing can't be done. I can't accept his attentiveness to me just because I think he is sincere, right? Even if I don't want to hurt him, it will eventually become a play with his feelings."
Chen Yi understood this truth. He often thought of Xiao Le, and he would have such a thought of self-blame. He was hurting Xiao Le, and he could not deny this.
"I understand. I just suggest you think about him a little bit more, maybe one day..."
"Are you annoyed?" Lin Qing glared at him impatiently. Finally, he suddenly held half of the steamed bun in his hand and stared blankly. His expression gradually turned cloudy, and tears finally appeared in his eyes.
"What are you doing?"
"It's nothing! You are so enthusiastic about helping others. In the afternoon, I secretly helped the skeleton boy. He misunderstood and beat you up. He also taught him to be smarter. In the past, he helped Lu Yao and Xiao Le, but now he helped the snake boy. I am so pitiful, but you still have no good face to me. I feel impatient when I say a few more words, and avoid getting close like I encounter a plague god..."
Lin Qing spoke more and more excitedly, and the tears in his eyes had turned into tears, slid down his face.
"I……"
"What are you!" Lin Qing glared at him with tears in his eyes. "Just because I lie to Lu Yao and Xiao Le, right? Yes, I lie. But can they open their hearts to me if they don't lie? Can you tell me that kind of thing to those who empathize with me? I just want to help them, as for what makes you feel that I'm full of lies and untrustworthy? Haven't you watched "Pride and Prejudice"? You are combining pride and prejudice against me!"
Lin Qing said, sobbing, her expression seemed to have to do her best to hold back tears. In fact, the tears did gush out slowly because of this. But it soon flowed more quickly, and she seemed to be even more sad.
"At the beginning of school, I thought I had a person I knew in a strange environment, but you deliberately ignored me. Well, I ignored me. But I was stupid and could not make friends. It was difficult for others to refuse to know each other. I thought that as long as it was impossible to develop into that kind of relationship, the other party would get along well with friends, and ended up being strangers. The girls in the class did not talk to me or interact with me under Wang Li's rumors and tyranny."
As she said that, she glared at Chen Yi with resentment.
"Some people have a sense of justice for other things. Well, there is a person sitting next to me who needs help, who just needs to speak and can be comforted without deliberately avoiding it. He will think that he can't see it! The sense of justice is also easy to do. Yes, offending Wang Li, Lao K, for me, how stupid it is to do people, and even implicate good friends in misunderstandings is so worth it."
Lin Qing then tried to control her tears and sobbed softly.
"You are too careful. I don't care so much, but it's true that the snake boy's affairs make me intentionally distance myself from you. I can't help with the school's affairs, and I can't stand up and shout for injustice for you."
"I didn't ask you to help so much, but... it's so uncomfortable to be alone in the class and school. I just hope you don't hide so deliberately, so that it's enough to let me have no one to speak."
"Don't do this. It's just that it's okay to be a friend. Even if I want to hide, you see, it's like this today. I still owe you 50 cents for phone bills and a decent meal. I'm still afraid that you will stay away and make this favor impossible to repay."
Lin Qing burst into laughter.
"I'm really not afraid of being friends with me and being isolated?"
"It's not that serious! It's just that the power of those rumors. Many students in the class are still willing to interact with you. But the male students are embarrassed to talk to you on their own initiative, and many female students are talking less, and they won't get close to you deliberately."
"You have to keep your word! Only women can be untrustworthy, but men cannot!"
"Make arithmetic."
"Hook your finger!" Lin Qing really stretched out his hand to hook it, it didn't look like a joke at all. Chen Yi secretly felt that this trick was too naive, and in the end she was forced to reach out and put it on.
"If it is certain that it will not change, it will never change. Whoever deceives people is a puppy."
"Oh..." Chen Yi raised her tone in anger. Finally, she couldn't help but say, "Can you be more childish?"
"You are childish!" Lin Qing's counterattack was refusing, and suddenly he said, "The steamed bun is cold!"
