After that day, Xu Yin brought Jiang Youjin some home-cooked food every now and then.
Sometimes it's braised beef tendon, sometimes it's long-lasting beef jerky.
Occasionally, Xu's father would buy fresh hairtail, and Xu Yin would take a few and make them into fried hairtails that were both easy to eat and easy to store, and then share half of them with him.
Dried fish, meat floss, meat sauce and the like were also brought to him.
It can be said that they are giving him extra food in different ways.
Chen Yan would be envious at first, but after seeing too much, he became numb.
You said you haven't been in love yet? Who believes it!
Before they were in love, they got along like an old married couple - they often brought each other things, she brought him food and drinks, and he sorted out key test questions and knowledge points for her.
Every day after school, the two of them have to wait and go together from the classroom to the school gate.
How can this be called falling in love?
"I can smell the sour smell of love between you two!" During lunch in the cafeteria, Chen Yan unceremoniously took a spoonful of large-grained beef sauce from Jiang Youjin, "I'd better help you. What about the ones you brought to the classroom? A spoonful isn’t too much, right?”
The canteen only sells this fried noodles mixed with beef sauce at noon. This guy received it this morning. The welfare for his family is really good! Why can't he find a girlfriend whose family is in the catering industry?
"Lao Huo doesn't seem to be staring at you much lately. Has she looked away?"
"There's no need to keep an eye on it."
"What I'm saying is, if you are a love brain, and your brain shuts down when you are in love, and your grades plummet, she won't be able to cry to death!"
At this point, Chen Yan sighed: "You or Xu Yin, I don't know who to envy."
Jiang Youjin raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Chen Yan touched his chin and said: "Xu Yin has made a lot of progress recently, right? If the fourth model can advance to the red list, she will have a good chance of getting a bachelor's degree. From being at the bottom of the first model to being on the red list now, such a big progress span, looking at the whole school, except for her Who else? And you, eating and drinking constantly every day..."
Hey, if you put it this way, are these two really not in love? Is it simply mutual help and mutual benefit?
Chen Yan looked at his best friend speechlessly and muttered: "Why didn't I think of this idea at the time? I am often in the top five of my grade. I still have enough time to tutor the students who are ranked 300 or below, right? ? It’s a mistake! It’s a mistake!”
Jiang Youjin: "..."
What's the fuss about again?
The weather was hot and he was worried that there wouldn't be room for it in the classroom. When school was over, he took the meat sauce home and put it in the refrigerator.
When Jiang Zuoyu comes back, he cooks two portions of noodles and spreads a spoonful of meat sauce on the noodles. This is the brothers' dinner today.
After taking a shower, Jiang Youjin wiped her hair and looked up at the wall clock. At a quarter past six, junior high school was supposed to have ended early, but she still hadn't gone home yet.
Jiang Youjin pursed her lips, a trace of weakness flashed in her eyes.
He put the dirty clothes scattered on the sofa into the washing machine, then sat at the desk, sorting out the comprehensive science question analysis that he would bring to Xu Yin tomorrow, while waiting for his brother to come back.
"Clang——"
When the clock reached 7 o'clock, the security door was opened and then slammed shut. The noise was so loud that the floor shook.
Jiang Youjin walked out of the room and saw Jiang Zuoyu's careless look. He couldn't help scolding him: "School ends at a quarter past five and you don't get home until seven? You don't tidy your room and don't wash your clothes. Who are you waiting for?" Clean it up for you?"
"You don't like cleaning up! I don't care anyway." Jiang Zuoyu shrugged, "What's wrong with the dirty clothes? You just love to be clean!"
Jiang Youjin took a deep breath, turned around and went into the kitchen to cook noodles.
"Noodles again? You can't buy some food to cook. I haven't eaten rice in a few days. Wasn't the braised beef offal you brought in the canteen last time delicious? Why didn't you bring it again?" Jiang Zuoyu followed the kitchen and took a look. Tonight’s dish, when I saw it was noodles with bland soup, I immediately lost my appetite. “It’s better to go to my uncle’s house, which has both meat and vegetables. The day I went there, he was still eating salmon and prawns!”
"Then why don't you go to his house to eat?" Jiang Youjin asked quietly.
"..."
Jiang Zuoyu curled his lips and said nothing.
When he went there that day, his uncle asked him to sit down and eat together, but his mother-in-law's face was extremely ugly, and she said in a sinister manner: "How could he have no food? His brother has 1.8 million in his hand, don't worry. How many slices of salmon are there? The seafood and Japanese food buffet is casually prepared, does it need to be treated as a treat to your uncle?"
His uncle laughed twice and said nothing more. He neither asked him to sit down to eat nor asked him what he was doing.
He spent more than half an hour at his uncle's house like a stick, and finally got to his uncle's house for a good meal. He followed his cousin and wanted to ask him to borrow some money.
As a result, my cousin said that he had no money. "My mother took all my salary for safekeeping and said it was saved for my wedding. Isn't your brother rich? Your parents' compensation is all with him, why are you still asking?" Should I borrow it? How can I have money?" Thinking of this, Jiang Zuoyu lowered his head.
My cousin has no money, and his brother won’t give him any money. It will take more than half a month to pay him living expenses. Where can he get money to pay Brother Ming?
Jiang Youjin glanced at his brother from the corner of his eye, twitched the corner of his mouth, picked up the cooked noodles, blanched a few green vegetables, then took out the meat sauce from the refrigerator, and spread a spoonful on the noodles.
Jiang Zuoyu absently picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Suddenly, he paused with his chopsticks and said, "Where does this sauce come from? It's quite delicious. Give me another spoonful."
"It's a bit salty, a spoonful is enough."
"……mean!"
Jiang Zuoyu muttered, lowered his head and slurped some noodles.
"I also want to eat noodles with meat sauce tomorrow morning."
After finishing the last bite, he touched his lips and ordered tomorrow's breakfast.
Jiang Youjin nodded: "Then you have to get up on time, eat and go to school."
"..."
Only a devil can get up so early!
But I wonder if this was the first time he had eaten such delicious meat sauce noodles. He actually got up at 6:30 the next morning.
Jiang Youjin didn't lie to him. Even though he was in a hurry to go to school, he still helped his brother make meat sauce noodles, washed the pot and wiped the stove before leaving.
Before going out, I told my brother: "Remember to wash the bowl after eating!"
"Why!"
"Why do you have to use this bowl to eat at night?"
"..."
Can't you find an extra bowl at home?
He won't wash! What can we do to him?
Jiang Zuoyu took a bite of noodles angrily and ate it happily. She felt that the meat sauce was not enough, so she went to dig a spoonful in the refrigerator.
"What a shame! There is still more than half of the can, but you only scooped out this little for me."
He hummed, finished eating the noodles, and threw the bowl into the sink. He wanted to go back to sleep, but thinking about the money he owed Brother Ming, he couldn't help but worry, and he couldn't fall asleep even after returning to the cage. He picked up the pure I walked to school casually with an empty schoolbag.
"Hey, isn't this Xiao Jiang?"
"Going to school with your schoolbag on your back? Or are you afraid that our brother Ming will come to ask for debts, so you are hiding on purpose?"
Several young people from society whom Jiang Zuoyu knew were walking towards them. Looking at their sleepy eyelids and vain steps, it seemed that they had been playing cards all night again.
"Brother Ming." Jiang Zuoyu looked at the leader of the thugs and stood like a quail, "Can you give me a few days of grace? My brother refuses to give me living expenses in advance."
"Tsk! If you don't have money, just find a way to make money! Do you have a business to do?" Brother Ming put his arms around his shoulders, with a mysterious look on his face, "I am taking you because I am a brother."
