Self-cultivation with a plate of tomato scrambled eggs

Song Xiaowu is investing at one end, and Li Tianqi is busy recruiting workers at the other end. Within 2 minutes after a job advertisement was posted, there were seven or eight people who came into the store to ask questions. Li Tianqi left two people, one in charge of washing dishes, and the other greeting The guests clear the table.

Originally, the restaurant has been open for many years, and it is not a matter of a day or two to be short of staff. However, when Song Xiaowu first arrived, he rushed to finish all the work without saying a word. In the grief, secondly, he didn't want Li Tianqi to feel that he was a freelancer. Li Tianqi saw that he couldn't make the kid worry about recruiting.

Now that the house has been saved, the storefront is also owned by the family, and there is still some money left, the plan to expand the business has been put on the agenda again.

Aunt Yang and Xiao Fu who stayed behind happened to be from the same hometown. The difference was that Aunt Yang had lived in the capital for many years and claimed to be able to do any job. Dialect, Li Tianqi saw that Aunt Yang had no objection, so he nodded and agreed to try it out for a week.

Two people were added, so naturally Song Xiaowu had to be told.As soon as Li Tianqi took out his mobile phone, before the number was broadcast, Song Xiaowu called: "Big plum..."

Li Tianqi gave a "hmm" and felt that Song Xiaowu's nasal voice was a bit heavy, so he asked, "Have you caught a cold?"

When Song Xiaowu heard this sentence, his nose was going to be crooked: It's been a long time since we saw each other, it's rare to be able to chat on the phone, and he was treated as a cold by that elm lump, it's really a wink for the blind!He replied a little sullenly: "No."

But I heard Li Tianqi ask again: "Then you are coming back?" Song Xiaowu's words made the sun shine in an instant: "Let's see the situation in the afternoon. My dad has been idle recently. I will try to sneak out." After being quiet for a while, finally He said what he planned to say from the beginning: "Da Lizi, I miss you so much."

"Yeah." Li Tianqi saw Aunt Yang and Xiaofu's busy voices coming and going, and suddenly felt that the temperature of the mobile phone was a little hot to the ears, and his heart was beating a little too fast.

"Oh..." Such an answer made Song Xiaowu unable to bear the sarcasm again: "What is 'um', why don't you take it easy, do you miss me or not?"

"Think." Li Tianqi's voice was not high, and there was a tenderness in it that even he himself felt a little unaccustomed to.

Song Xiaowu on the other end of the phone groaned and groaned: "I think I'm going to be happy." Another turned over and sat up: "Baby, I will definitely come back to see you this afternoon, you have to wait for me."

"Okay." Li Tianqi hung up the phone, smiled unconsciously, and said to Aunt Yang and the two of them: "The boss is coming back this afternoon, so we just have a meal together and get to know each other." Seeing the doubts on the faces of the two, he explained: "I With him, but he's not here every day."

It turned out to be a partnership, Xiao Fu nodded, thinking to himself.Aunt Yang looked at Li Tianqi's smiling face and muttered: Didn't the lady boss make that phone call just now?

Song Xiaowu came out a little late.The old man was in high spirits in the afternoon, and when he heard that Song Xiaowu was going to ask for leave again, he insisted on playing chess with him first, and only if he won could he leave.Where did such a stinky chess basket like Song Xiaowu win?It was all due to cheating and regretting two rounds of chess, but at least it was a draw. Seeing that he was so anxious that he was almost scratching his head, Mr. Yao finally said, "Go, go. Don't worry on the road, pay attention to safety."

When Song Xiaowu was sitting in the porch diligently, just when he was about to put on his shoes, Aunt Lin came out after washing the fruit, and said: "The sun is shining outside, eat the fruit before leaving." Song Xiaowu had to sit back obediently, picked a few Putting the grapes in her mouth, she listened to Aunt Lin continue: "The sun in this season is the most likely to burn people, who can't afford to go out like this, why not invite your friends to play at home next time, that's fine." Get to know each other and have a meal, right?" Song Xiaowu nodded vaguely, then looked at the old man, obviously acquiescing, and said in his heart: We will see each other sooner or later, but we have to wait until you have stabilized your blood pressure first.

Taking the subway just in time for the rush hour.Squeezing into the carriage next to Song Xiaowu was a young couple who obviously had a quarrel just now, but at this moment the two still had to stand close to each other, there was no room for a cold war.The phone in Song Xiaowu's pocket vibrated twice, and there was a new text message, but it was not from Li Tianqi.

Li Tianqi had just brought out a crock pot of stewed chicken with ginkgo, when Aunt Yang said she had a call for him, and when she answered it, it was indeed Song Xiaowu: "The one who answered the phone just now was a newly recruited waiter?"

Li Tianqi thought he couldn't come out, and he just felt relieved when he heard such a question, and said: "Yes. Two people have been recruited, and we are waiting for you to come back and meet."

"I don't want to go back yet." Song Xiaowu said, "Da Lizi, come to Huifeng Square, and I'll wait for you at the dessert shop that turns left on the third staircase."

The one who proposed to eat dessert was naturally Yuan Ke.Song Xiaowu originally planned to decline, but then he thought again, choosing a date is worse than bumping into it, he likes Yuan Ke as a friend, no matter what the result of being honest with each other is, it is much better than being ambiguous all the time.

After hanging up the phone, I took out two magazines from the bookshelf and sent them to Miss Yuan.

Yuan Ke accepted the magazine with a frown, pretended to be exaggerated and said thanks, but then revealed his true nature and picked on the dress posture and even the expression of the models one by one.

Song Xiaowu smiled absent-mindedly, and was suddenly grabbed by Yuan Ke's arm and shook vigorously: "I said you still don't want to look at him, that man is quite handsome." Song Xiaowu looked out in the direction she pointed, but didn't see him. Looking at some handsome guy, I saw Li Tianqi walking towards them - of course, Li Tianqi is also considered good-looking.

"Of course, you are pretty." Song Xiaowu heard Yuan Ke say not very sincerely beside him.But Song Xiaowu was not in the mood to care about such things at the moment, he stood up, waved to Li Tianqi, and when Li Tianqi came over, he introduced to him: "This is my good friend, Yuan Ke."

Then she said to Yuan Ke who was acting like a lady, "This is my boyfriend, Li Tianqi."

Even if the business that Peng Saila and Song Xiaowu entered into was not a one-shot deal, it was still a concept.Song Xiaowu counted the banknotes he got, and said to himself that fortunately this kind of business cannot be done for a long time, otherwise how would he get it?At this time, he had recollected it, and guessed that Peng Sai's move was mostly to make amends and please—hey, who is he, Song Xiaowu?Song Xiaowu sneered a few times, but no one thought too much money.

Turning around on the bed, Song Xiaowu leaned on the bedside and picked up the phone: Yuan Ke is half a hero if he can make a lot of money for nothing this time, how dare he not take the initiative to invite Miss Yuan to come out for a meal?Then he suddenly remembered that since the last meeting, he had not contacted Yuan Ke for more than two weeks.

At that time, Li Tianqi was the first to break the embarrassing situation. He smiled and nodded to Yuan Ke: "Hello. I heard Xiao Wu talking about you."

It's nothing more than normal polite talk.However, Song Xiaowu knew very well that if Li Tianqi knew in advance, he would never approve of his impulsive behavior. He just never blamed himself for what happened.

The two of them didn't stay for too long after they sat down again. Yuan Ke tried his best to maintain his usual demeanor, but his eyes still wandered from time to time. The three of them seemed to have lost something to talk about, and the desserts on the table were all tasteless.When we parted, Song Xiaowu knew that he had ruined a party that could have been easy, and wasted the short time he had with Li Tianqi.

But he couldn't take it anymore.They do not live in turbulent and precarious times, life and death, poverty, and disease do not separate them, and there is no unbridgeable gap between them... However, in this beautiful, prosperous, and thriving world, they cannot just It was holding hands, walking on the sunny road, and looking around.

Song Xiaowu called Mr. Yao, told a lie full of loopholes, then turned off the phone, put his arms around Li Tianqi's neck: "Big Li, I want to show my affection."

Li Tianqi roughly guessed what Song Xiaowu was thinking.He didn't expect too much at first, and thought that companionship was more important than promises, but obviously he underestimated how much Song Xiaowu valued promises—not vows spoken to the other party, but tenacious perseverance stemming from cherishing.

They walked for a long time after they came out of the dessert shop, and ate a bowl of ramen with a group of middle school students after school. Then they walked to the riverside, and saw kite sellers and snack sellers returning home, and old people picking up garbage among tourists. After passing by, he put the bottles and cans in his pocket, and Song Xiaowu squatted by the river for several times, but he still couldn't find a stone to float... They only walked to the bridge when the lights were on. , and from the bright lights to the dim lights, they walked in a leisurely manner, and occasionally said a few insignificant words, and the initial hand-holding gradually evolved into two people fighting for strength and flexibility, trying to find ways to stay together Being patted, pinched, twisted and scratched by the other party, but never really let go.

Finally they arrived at their new home in Xinghewan, played and entered the door, and they all huddled in the bathroom for a hasty wash. It was not until Song Xiaowu opened the master bedroom door that he realized what he had missed for a long time: a large The double bed, from the sheets and quilts to the pair of pillows, is without exception a pure bright red that cannot be cut and melted. It is both solemn and warm. In the room where the lights have not yet been turned on and only the faint moonlight shines in, Like the oldest wedding ceremony, original and timeless.

"It was laid some time ago. Now that the temperature has risen, it's too hot to sleep. Let's change it another day." Li Tianqi followed and walked in, his tone as if nothing happened, but Song Xiaowu hugged him from the side, sticking He asked in his ear, "I should have come back earlier, shouldn't I?"

Li Tianqi answered seriously: "I won't think it's too late when you come back." Song Xiaowu's question was half moved, half provocative, but he was hit by Li Tianqi's unconscious confession on the spot, dazed At the moment, the lips were gently kissed, and Song Xiaowu immediately took the initiative to deepen the entanglement of lips and tongue, and said vaguely with a smile: "Why don't you come to the wedding night to be more intense?"

Li Tianqi was obviously aroused by these four words, and the force of Song Xiaowu's falling into the bed became heavier uncontrollably. Unexpectedly, the too comfortable bed greatly tempted Song Xiaowu's tired and sore limbs. He closed his eyes and held Li Tianqi Kissed her head twice more indiscriminately, and threw herself into the embrace of the bed.

"Little bastard." Li Tianqi couldn't laugh or cry for a while, bit his thin and round earlobe to vent his anger, and then he had to tuck his arms into the quilt, and lay down himself, wrapping him in his arms, The raging desire gradually receded like a tide, he was willing to wait, it never felt too late.

As for the Yao family at the other end of the city, Yao Jian turned off the edited surveillance video after confirming that Song Xiaowu had finally entered the Xinghewan community, got up and squeezed his Qingming acupoint.

It was getting late, and the old man was anxious and angry after receiving Song Xiaowu's phone call. Yao Jian had no choice but to persuade him: "Children will inevitably want to go out to play. Don't worry too much, and take care of yourself."

The old man looked at him: "Who is he playing with?"

Yao Jian hardly hesitated: "It's still Peng Sai and the others, but I don't know if Yuan Ke is there. Those few people have no other strengths, but no matter how brave they are, they dare not let Xiao Wu make a mistake."

After hearing this, the old man didn't have much expression on his face: "Just make sure you're safe." He slowly leaned his back back into the sofa, suddenly smiled wryly, and said, "His wings are stiff too."

Yao Jian didn't say much, and privately told Aunt Lin to remember to persuade the old man to go to bed early at night.Before Song Xiaowu came to Yao's house, he was used to seeing the old man's indifferent attitude, and he was never good at trying to please his father, so he didn't need to do some useless work at this time.

Now that I know Song Xiaowu's current position, there is no rush to check the property rights, and I can ask someone to leave it until tomorrow.Yao Jian washed up, locked the bedroom door, turned off the bedside lamp, put on an eye mask, and lay down slowly. Everything was silent, there was no sound or sleep.
