Wen Lan's happiness is very simple.
She was happy to receive ten work points because she could not only support herself but also help the family;
She is happy to get ten work points and a subsidy, because not only can she help the family, but she can also go home during the Chinese New Year;
Being able to earn fifty yuan in a day or two... Wen Lan didn't know how to be happy, because this was a delusion she had never had in her limited knowledge.
In order to make themselves feel more real, she and Wang Shumei voted that Lin Nianhe would invite them to a state-owned restaurant for a meal tomorrow.
Two to one.
Lin Nianhe's one-vote veto power was rejected by two votes.
Lin Nianhe: "Even if I kicked down the doors of widows all over the world in my previous life, my sin would not be so great that I would have to take retribution from you two in this life, right?"
Wen Lan and Wang Shumei both looked up at the sky and ignored her.
As a person with two model worker brothers, Lin Nianhe was particularly tough and put his hands on his hips: "Speak!"
Wen Lan said confidently: "I haven't made any money yet."
Wang Shumei was moved: "I have younger brothers and sisters to raise. My eldest sister is like my mother. Raising children is very expensive."
Lin Nianhe: "..."
There were three dishes in one meal. Wen Lan ordered crispy white meat, Wang Shumei ordered braised fish, and Lin Nianhe added a plate of shredded potatoes.
It cost Lin Nianhe two yuan and thirty cents, and several food stamps.
Lin Erdai, who once threw away hundreds of thousands in a single drink, was so distressed that he almost cried.
Really, the more I live, the more I go back.
"Come on, Hezi, the fish tail is delicious. Here it is for you to eat."
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll treat you to my sister when she gets married."
Lin Nianhe: "May I ask how old your sister is this year?"
Wang Shumei: "Fourteen."
Lin Nianhe didn't want to talk anymore.
She silently took out the palm-sized notepad from her pocket, turned over the page where she was settling accounts with Su Yuncheng, and carefully wrote down on the new page:
Wang Shumei owed a meal (to be paid after Xiaoxiao got married).
Wang Shumei: "..."
Wen Lan pursed her oily lips, looking like a heartless fool.
Lin Nianhe showed his notepad to Wang Shumei in a sultry manner, then put it away and started eating with chopsticks.
The fried golden crispy white meat looks very attractive.
Fried food has a great appeal to people, especially in this era of shortage of oil and water, few people are willing to eat fried food.
Lin Nianhe had never eaten this dish in his previous life. Seeing that Wen Lan enjoyed it, he also took a piece of it.
As a result, she was stunned as soon as she took a bite.
Under the golden pastry, there is oily pig fat.
Lin Nianhe: "...Oh!"
She could eat the fat and thin braised pork, but she couldn't bear the fat meat. She couldn't hold it back and vomited it out.
Her hand shook, and most of the remaining piece of crispy white meat fell to the ground.
Wang Shumei and Wen Lan were both startled by her. Just as they were about to ask questions, a short black shadow swooped under the table, grabbed the crispy white meat on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth.
Lin Nianhe lowered his head subconsciously, and his eyes met the child under the table.
The little boy was so thin that he lost his appearance, his little face was dirty, and his body was also dirty. His only big eyes were black and white, as clear as the river in Shili Brigade.
Lin Nianhe thought this child looked familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
When the little boy saw Lin Nianhe clearly, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes, and he obviously recognized her. He quickly ducked down, got under the table and ran away.
Lin Nianhe was distracted for a moment and failed to stop him. When he saw him again, the little guy was running quickly outside the hotel.
His running figure finally overlapped with a small shadow in Lin Nianhe's memory.
She remembered that she had glimpsed a little boy running towards them that day.
"Niuba!"
Lin Nianhe shouted out.
The little guy paused slightly, looked back at her, and then ran faster.
Lin Nianhe stood up in a hurry, said "You guys eat first, I'll chase him" and ran out.
Niu Wa was small after all, and he was caught up by Lin Nianhe before he had gone fifty meters.
Lin Nianhe was not polite and grabbed him by the collar and carried him back.
"Niuwa?"
Lin Nianhe grabbed his dirty little hand and looked at him with a slight frown: "Why are you here?"
After Uncle Niu was imprisoned, Niu Wa became an orphan again.
He is luckier than the Zhang brothers because the captain of Jiuli Brigade is now He Aimin.
He Aimin originally wanted to take Niu Wa back to his home, but Niu Wa wanted to wait for his grandfather at home and refused. He Aimin made an agreement with him and asked him to weed pigs every day. He would be credited with four work points and would go to He's house for dinner in the future.
Good or bad food comes with the He family, at least it can leave a way for the child to survive.
Lin Nianhe had heard of this matter, and Su Yuncheng had mentioned it to her before. At that time, she felt that Uncle He was a nice person and Niu Wa would probably not be wronged.
But looking at him now...
Niu Wa pursed her lips and refused to speak even as she pulled her.
Lin Nianhe squatted down in front of him, rubbed his head, and asked in a soft voice: "Are you looking for grandpa?"
Niu Wa was stunned, and his big eyes quickly filled with tears. He held back the tears, pursed his lips tightly and nodded.
Lin Nianhe wiped away his tears and said softly: "Tell me what's going on, and I'll take you to see grandpa, okay?"
Niu Wa opened her mouth and asked in a low voice: "Really?"
"Really." Lin Nianhe nodded, "I promise."
"good……"
Niu Wa's story is actually very simple. At first, he only knew that his grandfather was gone. Later, he heard the aunt in the village say that his grandfather had been arrested and was about to die... Then he came to the town and wanted to find his grandfather. , he didn’t believe what those people said.
Lin Nianhe looked at the dirty little guy distressedly and asked him, "How many days have you been here?"
"Two days." Niu Wa whispered.
His voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded like he had caught a cold.
Lin Nianhe sighed silently and said to him: "Your grandpa is not dead. You go to dinner with me first, and then take a shower in the afternoon. Let's go see grandpa cleanly, okay?"
Niu Wa pursed her lips and shook her head: "I want to see grandpa."
"You look like a mud monkey, wouldn't you be worried if grandpa sees you?" Lin Nianhe asked back.
Niu Wa looked down at his dark hands and stopped talking.
"Let's go, let's eat first, and I'll find someone to take you to take a shower later." Lin Nianhe stood up, holding his hand and walking to the state-owned hotel.
When she took Niuwa back, there was a bowl of hot pimple soup on the table, as well as a handkerchief stained with water, which belonged to Wen Lan.
Lin Nianhe took a handkerchief to wipe Niu Wa's hands and face, and wiped Sister Lan's blue handkerchief black.
Wang Shumei said: "You see Niuwa hasn't eaten well these days. Let's eat some soft pimple soup first to avoid stomachache."
Wen Lan put the fish tail in Lin Nianhe's bowl into the empty bowl in front of Niu Wa: "Niu Wa, the fish tail is delicious, here it is for you to eat."
Lin Nianhe: "...?"
No one cares about her, who was just disgusted by the big fat guy?
Also, is their little love transferred too quickly?
