As soon as you get to the cafeteria, look for rat poison.
"Mom, do we have any poison to kill rats here?"
"What? Did you find a mouse? Ouch! That's not possible! You have to get rid of it quickly! Don't let them climb onto the vegetable shelf."
Xu's mother put down what she was doing and helped them search together, "Well, isn't it right here?"
She found the bag of small granules of powerful rodenticide under the cupboard.
"Mom, go and do your work, I'll do it."
Xu Yin took it and found a surveillance corner to collect the rodenticide into the system warehouse.
I was worried that I would pick up the wrong one when I was going through the inventory one day, so I sealed it in a black garbage bag with white skulls printed on it and put it in a tool box. Then I found an ointment-type environmentally friendly rodenticide, which is similar to cockroach poison. If it is crowded in a place where rats are likely to hang out, rats will have symptoms of itchy feet and lick their toes to achieve poisoning.
After finishing these tasks, she breathed a sigh of relief, washed her hands and disinfected them, put on her chef uniform and hat, and came to the stove to help Xu's mother.
Xu's mother took a moment to glance at her daughter in a nervous mood.
Since she entered high school, her daughter has talked a lot less with her and her child's father. She rarely hears her calling "Dad" or "Mom". She once couldn't help but confided in Sister Wang, who was working as a busboy in the cafeteria downstairs. A few words.
As a result, Sister Wang said that this is what children are like when they get older. This is called adolescence. Studying in high school is stressful. As a parent, you should shut up, stop being verbose, cook more delicious food, and take care of her food and clothing. It will be fine after this stage. .
When Xu's mother went back and talked to the child's father, the couple breathed a sigh of relief: Shut up and cook more? They are good at this!
They are not talkative people to begin with, and cooking is their specialty——
I worked at the snack bar in my hometown town from the time I got married until my child went to high school, and then to the school cafeteria for the convenience of my daughter’s study.
They may not be able to do anything else, but cooking is really easy.
So in the past two years, the couple has tried their best to nag less and cook more. Their daughter doesn't like talking to them and rarely goes to the cafeteria on the second floor at school. So they prepare the meals and deliver them before the cafeteria opens. Rent a house.
If the child's father hadn't had a fever today, she wouldn't have thought of calling her daughter to help. When I left, I was actually quite worried that she wouldn't be happy. Unexpectedly, not only did she come, I also took the initiative to help.
At this moment, Xu's mother felt relieved. As long as her daughter didn't really hate them, and it was just because Nao Shizi talked less in adolescence, everything would be easy to discuss.
She asked happily: "When mom prepares the cold dishes, I will make you lunch first. What do you want to eat? Your dad bought a few small casseroles before. Do you like clay pot rice? Or fried noodles?"
"Mom, let's get down to business first. I'll make whatever I want to eat later."
"Oh." Xu's mother was worried that her daughter would find her annoying if she talked too much. She didn't want to ruin such a good atmosphere. She silently recited the "less nagging, more cooking" formula that Sister Wang taught her several times in her mind, and then she stopped talking and didn't say any more.
Of course, the main thing was hearing the bell ringing for the end of get out of class.
The last class of the morning is over!
The road leading from the teaching building to the cafeteria is full of students running wildly, fearing that if they are too late, their favorite dishes will be taken away.
The male and female protagonists of the original text, Lu Yunzhou and Gong Xi, as well as their respective roommates, were also among the crowd heading to the cafeteria.
"Lao Liu, one table of snacks in the canteen on the second floor costs a lot of money, right? It cost you a lot of money today."
Lu Yunzhou flipped up his bangs nonchalantly: "No matter how expensive a table of food in the school cafeteria is, how could I be so shabby if Xixi's birthday wasn't a holiday?"
"Yes, yes! Our Mr. Lu's treat must be three Michelin stars no matter what."
"Get lost." Lu Yunzhou scolded with a smile, "Don't say anything to me. If the teacher hears it, he will think that I look down on the food in the school cafeteria."
"But it's a fact that the food in the cafeteria is unpalatable!" Man Junhao pointed to the pimples on his face that had not gone away, with a sad look on his face, "The vegetarian dishes in the cafeteria are light and bland, and the meat dishes are greasy and can't be eaten. Look at my acne. It started appearing in my second year of high school and it hasn’t let me go until now.”
"The stir-fried dishes in the small canteen are okay." Gong Xi continued with a smile, "It is said that the couple has been running a snack bar for several years, and they have a good grasp of salty and salty. I like their garlic lettuce and lettuce the most. Di San Xian, Di San Xian’s eggplants and potatoes are super delicious.”
"I haven't eaten on the second floor yet. I must try it today."
While talking, they walked into the cafeteria.
Seeing the long queue in the cafeteria window, Qiao Xiaochen, who was beside Gong Xi, stood on tiptoe and took a few glances: "I don't know which window Xu Yin's mother is at. Next time I will go to her place to queue and tell her that I am Xu Yin's classmate." Classmate, I wonder if you can serve me more?"
"It's impossible to give more. It's good if your hands don't shake."
"That's true, hahaha... uh uh uh! Xu, Xu Yin?"
"What the hell, Xu Yin?"
The group of people were stunned at the stairs on the second floor.
Xu Yin was cutting shredded potatoes at the canteen stall on the second floor, wiping her hands - the kitchen knife flashed when she lifted it up and down.
Xu's mother was serving cold dishes on the side.
In addition to the table for the host and hostess, the other table was reserved by several teachers from the administrative office and would not come until after twelve o'clock.
"Ah! Classmate Lu is here!" Mrs. Xu packed the cold dishes and looked up to see the students coming. She greeted with a smile, "Have a seat! The cold dishes are ready and the hot dishes will be fried soon."
Xu's mother arranged the cold dishes, returned to the kitchen, lit the stove and started cooking.
Xu Yin made her move and turned her head to see twelve classmates, six boys and six girls, standing there as stupid as pillars, and twitched the corner of her mouth slightly.
Only then did Gong Xi and the other girls come to their senses and came over and asked, "Xu Yin, are the owners of the cafeteria your parents?"
"I thought Xu Yin, your mother was working in the cafeteria downstairs."
"That's right, Xu Yin, you've been hiding it so well. Are you afraid that we'll find out and come to take advantage of you, hahaha!"
Xu Yin nodded half-seriously: "Yes, my parents are very busy taking orders every day. In order to prevent you from eating too much, I don't even come here to eat."
"..."
Even if it's the truth, is it really okay to say it so bluntly?
Xu's mother came out with vinegar-fried shredded potatoes that were stir-fried over high heat. When she heard her daughter's words, she almost knocked over the plate and said to her, "Daughter, even if you think so in your heart, you can't say that in front of your classmates!" Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to make friends?
He quickly smoothed things over: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. You like the food cooked by Yinyin's dad and I. We are too happy to be happy. Come here if you want to eat."
Man Junhao took over the conversation with a smile: "Auntie, don't worry, we have enough living expenses at the end of the month, so we will come to your place to have a toothpaste!"
Xu's mother smiled and said, "Okay, okay, auntie will give you a discount."
Lu Yunzhou hesitated for a moment. He had always felt that Xu Yin was a bit weird. The eyes he met her a few times unintentionally made his hair stand on end, so he usually avoided her and tried not to have contact with her. For a moment, I wanted to cancel this order, but I was afraid that Gong Xi would be unhappy. After all, today is her birthday. Forget it, the food is on the table, let’s eat!
