Things can always be paired successfully

At lunch time, Liao Ran drove to a nearby ancient town.

There are several ancient towns in Lijiang that can be named. The area they came to is small, but fortunately the degree of commercialization is low, and the town still maintains a simple and simple atmosphere.

The two found a small noodle restaurant and ordered two rice noodles.

Liao Ran got up: "I'm going to buy some papa, you wait here."

Lian Xiao grabbed his sleeve: "Don't, Brother Ran, I'm so scared when you leave."

"Damn it, you're enough! I'm so disgusted, how cute is a big man!"

Lian Xiao laughed and said, "Isn't it just because you like soft and cute girls acting like a baby?"

"What do I like!"

Liao Ran's face was sullen and serious.

Lian Xiao also paused, the air was suddenly quiet and frozen, he took a breath, and asked, "You only have three yuan and two, enough to buy papa?"

Liao Ran's tense face instantly turned away, revealing two small canine teeth: "Fuck, don't look down on Lijiang, can you pay by scanning the QR code with your mobile phone when you buy papa?"

Lian Xiao also smiled, and pointed to the cashier: "Go and pay for the rice noodles."

"Why?" Liao Ran bared and ran out.

There are aunts selling Baba everywhere in the ancient town. They cover their heads and wear national costumes. Liao Ran can conceive an oil painting when he looks at it from a distance.

He didn't know how much Lian Xiao eats. At yesterday's lunch, Lian Xiao ate in a panic. He wanted to laugh when he thought about it, so he bought a dozen and continued to eat in the car when he couldn't finish it.

When we returned to the noodle shop, two bowls of rice noodles were served on the table.

Lian Xiao held the chopsticks, he didn't eat the one in front of him, but dumped the bowl from Liao Ran's opposite.

He clamped the meat one by one to the center of the bowl, and then carefully placed the coriander one by one on the side of the meat to form a flower.

Liao Ran: "..."

"What are you doing?"

Lian Xiao looked at him sideways: "Yesterday, I saw you pick and choose. You can even arrange tomatoes and scrambled eggs. I'm afraid you'll faint from hunger before you finish arranging them. Let me arrange them for you first."

Liao Ran was idle yesterday, and he did that to attract Lian Xiao's attention.

He put a big bag of poop on the table and sat down facing him: "You peek at me."

Lian Xiao was taken aback, choked for words, and froze with his hands in the air.

Liao Ran snatched the chopsticks from his hand, picked up the meat and put it in his mouth: "It's really delicious."

"Fault."

Lian Xiao cursed, and picked up a pair from the chopstick holder again.

Liao Ran opened the bag: "It tastes even better with rice noodles!"

Lian Xiao saw that he raised his hand to grab it, so he slapped it with a slap, and the piece of meat caught by the chopsticks was thrown out two meters away: "You can grab it after washing your hands!"

"Damn," Liao Ran's back was patted red, and there was a burst of pain, "Did you touch shit or something! So many problems!"

"Wash your hands!" Lian Xiao pointed to a white plastic pipe at the door, "The faucet is there, children must pay attention to hygiene."

"You called me Brother Ran just now."

"It's Brother Ran, not Brother Ran."

Liao Ran got up: "You are enough, just take a shower, I will check you when I go back to take a shower tonight."

"what to check for?"

Liao Ran hooked her lips: "See if you wear a handle or not. You are a mother-in-law, mother-in-law."

"I'll fuck your uncle, you're just a mother! Brother's a big deal! You can't hold one hand!"

As he yelled, all of a sudden, the whole store and the people passing by on the street all looked at him in the face.

big boy?

Lian Xiao hurriedly shut up and lowered his head to eat the rice noodles, while Liao Ran stood at the door holding on to the faucet and laughed so hard that he couldn't help himself.

The papa tasted a bit special, with a bit of oily smell, Lian Xiao took a bite: "Are you a fool, buy so much."

"I'm afraid you don't have enough to eat," Liao Ran also ate, "It's strange, you are much calmer when you eat today than yesterday."

"I was in pain yesterday." He flipped through the rice noodles and found a piece of forgotten meat. The grief of losing a piece just now hadn't passed, and when he finally found another piece, his eyes widened.

Liao Ran's eyes were sharper, she stretched out her chopsticks to pick it up and put it directly into her mouth.

Lian Xiao: "..."

"Did there be a famine just now? How dare you grab your grandfather's meat?"

Liao Ran chewed it with great relish: "Who told you to pat your ancestor's hand just now? It's your honor to me."

In the end, even the money Xiao paid was regarded as a filial piety to his ancestors, and he was at a big loss with this palm of the Tathagata.

Liao Ran pretended to keep blowing on the back of his hands, even Xiao couldn't stand it, and wanted to stick out his tongue to lick it for him, so he ended his clumsy performance.

"To honor your ancestors, you need to honor your ancestors with Ming coins." Lian Xiao scanned the QR code hanging on the wall in the store, and paid the money, "Take your daddy with you, and don't leave anything behind."

After turning around and leaving the noodle shop, Lian Xiao's cell phone rang.

When he saw the caller ID, it was Qiangzi's, and he was relieved.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Hey! Brother Lian, it's over, it's over!"

"Are you going to die? Goodbye then."

Qiangzi on the other end of the phone said quickly: "No! Just now I ran into your graduation thesis supervisor in the teaching building, and she asked me why you didn't discuss the finalization with her!"

Lian Xiao rolled his eyelids: "That's right, she told me about it last month, I put it aside and didn't care much about it."

"Do you still want a graduation certificate? Your tutor is at the level of Miejue Shitai. If you are not honest, can she pass it to you? Besides, you sneaked out to play around and didn't report to my brothers. People are not prepared at all!"

"Okay, okay," Lian Xiao said impatiently, "next time you just give me an excuse to deal with it, I'll go back and find her, and I have to brew a conclusion in Lijiang."

"What's the reason? You said you went back to your hometown for a blind date?"

"Do you think my brother is someone who needs a blind date? Just say that I went back to my hometown to visit my ancestor's grave."

After hanging up the phone, Liao Ran put a hand on his arm: "Didn't your ancestor and I live well?"

"Fart," Lian Xiao shook his shoulders, and shook off his broken hand that had been blowing for half an hour just now, "Where are we going now? Shall we go by car?"

"Take you here for a stroll, and buy some souvenirs for your parents and neighbors."

Liao Ran casually said "Mom and Dad", saying that Lian Xiao was depressed, and didn't answer the words. After 2 minutes of silence, Liao Ran glanced at him: "Are you tired, why don't you talk all of a sudden?"

"Today's quota is used up." Lian Xiao put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked casually at the various commodities wholesaled from the small commodity city on the side of the road. "I just listen to you."

"That's so boring. Forget it. I'll take you to meet a friend. You are so cowardly now. Walking on the street affects the appearance of the city too much."

The ancient town is indeed not big, the kind where a fart can stink half.

Liao Ran led the way, turned to a small alley on the right, walked more than ten meters, and arrived at his friend's, a small two-story coffee house.

There are coffee houses everywhere in Lijiang. When tourists are tired from shopping, they will find a place to stay and charge their mobile phones, or those who stay here for a long time and want to bask in the sun will also choose to come to the coffee shop to find a place where the sun can In the corner of the photo, leaning on the sofa and pillow to read a book, order a cup of coffee or stir-fried yogurt, and the day is gone in a flash.

But this alley is really deserted. Lian Xiao doesn't know why he chooses to open his shop in this place. If there is a public toilet in the alley, it may attract traffic.

Lian Xiao really wanted to give the boss a plaque as a meeting gift, so he inscribed the words "The boss has no intention of doing business at all".

The door of the coffee shop is still closed, it's noon, do you still want to do business?Lian Xiao was puzzled.

Liao Ran opened the door without saying a word and went in. The store is very small. On the left side of the first floor, there is a row of small tea tables and high chairs, and there is a little dust. years.

In the aisle in the middle, Lian Xiao took a look. There was a door at the end of the aisle, which was probably used as a space for people to live in or a warehouse.

There is an iron staircase next to the bar to the second floor.

Liao Ran called out, "Old Wang!"

"..."

"Does he live next door to you?"

Liao Ran turned around: "You live next door to me, and I fell asleep on top of you."

The door at the end of the aisle opened, and a boy with a baby face came out of it. He was not tall, with curly hair, and looked like a high school student.

"..."

That's it, Old Wang? ?

Comrade Wang still had an electric toothbrush in his mouth, buzzing, and a water glass in his hand.

Liao Ran raised her eyebrows: "Just woke up?"

Old Wang nodded, then pointed to the second floor, signaling them to go up and wait.

Liao Ran made an OK gesture: "Two cups of matcha latte."

After talking about what he thought of, he turned to look at Lian Xiao: "Is it okay? You won't lose sleep after drinking, right?"

"It's okay, it's only noon."

"That's right," Liao Ran smiled, "I really can't sleep, I'll knock you out."

"Fuck off."

Lian Xiao pushed Liao Ran.

This boss is really motivated, he just chose a place that doesn't shit to open a store, and he got up so late, is he looking forward to bankruptcy and liquidation soon?

Shoes thumping on the stairs.

"Be careful, don't hit your head." Liao Ran reminded by supporting the beam on the stairs.

The second floor is at least three times larger than the first floor, separated by a bookshelf in the middle, with a wooden table and sofa on one side, and tatami mats on the other.

There are some old books and magazines on the bookshelves, as well as a few handmade models.

Lian Xiao sat on the sofa, one is convenient without taking off his shoes, and the other is that the sofa is next to the window, where the sun shines in, and there are some wind chimes hanging by the window, which jingle twice from time to time.

Liao Ran also likes to sit on the sofa. The sofa is made of cotton, and it uses several colors. The pillows are also colorful. Lian Xiao knew that he would like it at a glance. It looks like an oil painting, a bit exaggerated but not unconventional.

"Do you come here often?" Lian Xiao picked up a pillow, put it on his lap and patted it lightly.

"Ah, come here when you are free. The boss here is an acquaintance with the innkeeper. He and I sometimes come here to brag."

"How old is this boss? I look at him like a high school student."

"I can't blame you for your poor eyesight. I couldn't recognize it at first." Liao Ran leaned his hand on the back of the sofa. The sun didn't shine on him, but on the glider hanging from the ceiling. .”

"Really?!" Lian Xiao was a little unbelievable, "I think he is in his early twenties."

Liao Ran smiled: "Then guess how old our innkeeper is?"

Lian Xiao recalled the photo he saw on the wall next to the stairs of the inn yesterday, the boss seemed to have a little gray hair, so he guessed: "Is it more than 40?"

"He's also in his early thirties."

"I'd better go see an ophthalmologist." Lian Xiao picked up the pillow and lay back on the sofa.
