runaway?
Are you kidding? You are already an adult, not a child, and you are still playing the trick of running away from home?
Li Tang was speechless. He paused for a moment before saying, "Then where are you now?"
"At the airport."
"Then you take a taxi and tell the driver to go to Paoju Hutong on Dongzhimen North Street. Make a call when you're almost there and I'll pick you up at the entrance of the alley."
"Oh, got it."
After hanging up the phone, Li Tang sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile, slowly got up, took off his slippers and went to the bathroom to wash up.
About half an hour later, the phone rang again. Li Tang answered the phone and walked out, instructing Xiaopang to let the taxi drive in.
Not only did Xiaopang come, he also brought two large suitcases with him. Li Tang helped her unload her luggage from the car. Seeing that there was no place to talk, he called her: "Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get home."
I walked to the door of my courtyard with my luggage, and happened to meet the two aunts wearing red hoops I saw last time. When the aunt saw Li Tang carrying his luggage and bringing a girl with him, her eyes suddenly lit up and she hurriedly came over to say hello: "Xiao Li, you're back!"
He said he was saying hello to Li Tang, but his eyes kept glancing at the chubby face. Although Xiaopang was wearing sunglasses, he was still recognized by the eagle-eyed aunt.
One of the aunts clapped her hands excitedly and exclaimed: "Oh, golden lock!"
The other aunt was a little slower, but still exaggerated: "Oh, it's really a golden lock. I've heard that you and Xiao Li are a couple, but I didn't expect to meet them today."
Li Tang said hurriedly: "Auntie, you have misunderstood. Jinsuo and I are just friends. She just stopped by to see me."
"Oh, I'm a friend. I'm on my way..."
The aunt took a look at the suitcase the two of them were pulling, showed a mysterious smile, and deliberately lowered her voice: "Xiao Li, don't worry, aunt understands that you celebrities will never reveal their love relationships easily. That's called... uh, called What's going on?"
An aunt next to me hurriedly answered: "It's called Scandal."
"Yes, yes, scandal! It's the kind of scandal that newspapers often say is all over the place. Don't worry, aunt is not an ignorant person, and she will definitely keep it a secret for you."
Li Tang saw that he couldn't explain it, and even his description became darker and darker. He glanced helplessly at Fan Xiaopang, but the silly girl actually covered her mouth and giggled.
He could only say: "Auntie, thank you! Look, we are all at the door of the house. Look..."
The aunt reacted and said hurriedly: "Oh oh oh, then we won't disturb you."
After saying that, he specifically said to Fan Xiaopang: "Jinsuo, if you have any questions in the future, just say it. My family lives at the entrance of the alley. You just need to ask Aunt Han. Everyone in this alley knows about it."
"Hey, thank you, aunt." Xiaopang smiled and waved goodbye to the two aunts.
As soon as he entered the door, Xiaopang burst out laughing "hahaha" without any scruples: "I think your place is so interesting, and those two aunts are so funny."
Seeing her heartless look, Li Tang felt a little dumbfounded and said, "Hey, you are in a better mood now, don't you cry anymore?"
"I was in a bad mood before, but when I got here, I suddenly felt better."
Only then did Fan Xiaopang have time to look at Li Tang's yard, and he couldn't help but said in surprise: "Wow, your place is really nice! Take me to see it!"
Li Tang took her around in a circle, and while she was yelling like she had never seen the world before, she finally stopped in the west wing.
This is a tea room. The tea room is almost unused and looks like new. There is a guest room next to it with a bathroom. It is equivalent to an independent house with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom.
Fan Xiaopang nodded with great satisfaction and said, "Okay, I'll requisition this place."
requisition?
Li Tang looked at her and said with a smile: "Okay, the rent is one thousand yuan a month."
"One thousand dollars?"
The chubby guy was stunned for a moment, then he took out his wallet from his bag and said loudly: "No problem, bet one and pay three, or bet one and pay six?"
"What's the matter, do you still want to stay here forever?"
"My house is uninhabitable now, so of course I have to rent a house."
As she said that, she took out a wad of money from her wallet, shook it, and said proudly: "Do you want it?"
Of course, Li Tang couldn't really collect Xiaopang's rent. He looked up and down and said with a smile, "Apart from money, is there any other way?"
"In what way?"
When Xiaopang noticed his leering eyes, he immediately said in embarrassment: "Get out!"
"Okay, then take your time and clean it up."
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Li Tang didn't ask why she ran away from home. He turned back when he reached the door and said, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
"casual!"
The little fat boy came out from home in the morning and was sulking all the way. He didn't even touch the airplane food. He was really hungry now. But she was embarrassed, so she could only shrug it off.
"Okay, then you can eat whatever I eat."
Li Tang waved his hand and went out humming a tune.
After being in contact with him for so long, he has already figured out Xiaopang's temperament. On the outside, you may see a precocious, worldly, well-rounded, and good-natured little girl, but privately she is an emotional and playful little girl. , and even some unreasonable little girls.
The longer you pretend on the outside, the more obvious it becomes in private.
Li Tang was already hungry after sleeping for most of the day, so he went out and ordered a few dishes from a restaurant he frequented in the alley.
Xiaopang loves meat, so he ordered a side of soy pork elbow. This restaurant’s soy sauce pork elbow is pretty good. I also ordered leek boxes, stir-fried vegetables, mixed eggplant puree and braised hairtail.
Seeing the stewed hairtail, he suddenly remembered what Heping said in the amnesia episode of "I Love My Family": "Let's eat hairtail. Buy the most expensive one, 38 cents per pound."
For this reason, he specifically asked the boss, what does a 380-pound hairtail look like?
The boss said that prices were uniform at that time, and the hairtail fish weighing 380 pounds per pound was absolutely the best. The hairtail we eat now only weighed 121 pounds at most. Moreover, this kind of hairtail, weighing 380 pounds per pound, is not something that ordinary people can afford. Even if you have money, you can’t buy it.
After it was over, the boss looked at the menu he ordered and suddenly said: "I heard that Jinsuo is here. Is it enough? Do you want two more hard dishes?"
"Well……"
When he returned to the courtyard with the packed meals, Xiaopang had already finished taking a shower. He was wearing a pair of cotton printed pajamas. Her hair, which had been cut short before, had just grown to cover her ears, and her Her hair was thick and voluminous. When it was dried, it looked fluffy like a crazy woman. She was standing on the veranda with slippers on her feet. When she saw Li Tang coming in, she asked, "What did you buy?"
"Didn't you say you can eat whatever you want?"
Li Tang replied unceremoniously, and when he saw her standing there motionless, he shouted again: "Don't be stunned, hurry up!"
Xiaopang curled his lips unwillingly and followed him into the restaurant in the east wing.
"Wow, the sauce elbow is pretty good!"
When she saw a lunch box of red pork elbows in sauce, Xiaopang's eyes lit up. As for the other stir-fried vegetables and tomato puree, she didn't take a look at it, especially the stewed hairtail. For her who grew up by the sea, Speaking of it, it was even more dismissive.
She couldn't wait to take a piece of elbow and stuffed it into her mouth. After chewing it for two times, she nodded in surprise and said vaguely: "Well, it's delicious!"
Li Tang took out two cups and a bottle of wine from the cabinet and said, "Would you like something to drink?"
Xiaopang looked at the liquor in his hand and immediately said warily: "You want to get me drunk?"
Li Tang didn't bother to talk to her, so he poured himself a glass, and then asked her again: "Would you like a drink?"
Xiaopang hesitated for a moment, then pushed the cup over: "Pour less, just half a cup."
Langjiu has a strong sauce flavor. When Wu Jing came here before, he always clamored to drink Moutai. Li Tang thought it was expensive, so he bought a box of Langjiu to prepare. It was also the sauce flavor type, but there was no difference in drinking it. Five It costs more than ten yuan a bottle, which is economical and affordable.
Li Tang picked up the cup and said, "Here, I'll give you a toast."
"What do you want to respect me for?" Xiaopang tilted his head and asked.
"I respect you for running away from home!"
"..."
Xiaopang pursed his lips, touched him, and took a big gulp.
Li Tang saw this and said hurriedly: "You should take it easy, don't rely on me when you are drunk."
Xiaopang raised his head and glanced at him, half-smiling but not smiling: "If I were drunk, wouldn't you just have a chance?"
"Tch, I can't do such a thing as picking up corpses." Li Tang said with disdain.
Yes, although he was very greedy for the chubby body, a gentleman would do something but not do something, and he would never do anything dishonorable.
"What do you mean by picking up corpses?" Xiaopang didn't understand.
"If you're drunk and can't move, you're almost like a dead person."
Although Xiaopang was inexperienced, he still understood. His face turned red and he gave him a fierce look.
Covering up, he picked up the cup and replied: "Thank you, and congratulations on being nominated for the Golden Rooster Award. I wish you can win the award."
It's not that she is ungrateful. Li Tang was able to take her in, which was a big help. Otherwise, I would have to find another house, which would be too troublesome.
Li Tang held the cup and smiled: "You are not sincere. How about a toast in just three words?"
The fat boy didn't say anything. He raised his head and toasted. He showed the bottom of the cup to him and said boldly, "I did it, you can do whatever you want!"
"Good guy, yes!"
Li Tang had just poured about two ounces of wine for her, and the fat man actually wiped it out in two gulps with a calm look on his face, which really surprised him. Thinking of his ex-girlfriend's appalling drinking capacity, she was probably named Bingbing. You can drink it.
He could only bite the bullet and took a big sip, then picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for Xiaopang.
As soon as half the cup was poured, the little fat boy knocked on the table and said impatiently: "Fill it up! Fill it up!"
Hey, this is what you said!
Li Tang poured her a full glass without politeness, and the bottle of wine was empty.
After drinking for three rounds, Li Tang looked at the little fat man with blurred eyes, and asked tentatively: "Tell me, why did you run away from home?"
Xiaopang's original smile froze in an instant, and he opened his mouth, looking embarrassed.
Li Tang became even more curious when he saw this, and kept urging: "What's going on, tell me!"
"My mom is pregnant!"
Oops, the old clam produces pearls!
Reporting on the results, the average number of orders in 24 hours was over 800, and the high order was 900. The order-to-book ratio was more than 20 to one, which is really terrible!
