The relationship between Zhang Li and Yan Ting improved by leaps and bounds after this meal.

When Zhuang Xuan hugged his belly, his face was full of vicissitudes, and pretended to breathe out smoke slowly, Yan Ting leaned over, "Guess where I ate?"

As I get older, my heart hurts less and less.

Zhuang Xuan showed a Buddhist and gentle smile, "Everything is empty. There is no need to be attached to external objects. After thousands of years, we will all be dust."

……

However, over the years, Yan Ting has learned the best skill is speaking.

"Zhang Li did it."

……

???

"He made it himself? Can he eat it?"

Zhuang Xuan couldn't believe it.

Yan Ting nodded solemnly, "Not bad. Braised lion's head, hot and sour potato shreds, tomato and egg soup."

……

Zhuang Xuan was sad and indignant, "It's so good to eat?"

"Oh, and there are desserts after dinner."

Zhuang Xuan grabbed him by the collar, with a fierce look on his face, "I'll kill you right now!"

"Sister Hou Yuwen?"

……

Damn it, the God of War of the Three Middle Schools.

Zhuang Xuan held his head, "I was wrong senior sister. I won't talk nonsense anymore."

There was a moment of stagnation in the air, until Yan Ting's wretched laughter came, and Zhuang Xuan realized that he had been cheated.

The one who lied was the gentle and serious Zhang Li.

Yan Ting laughed so hard that she couldn't stand upright, "Are you so afraid of her?"

Zhuang Xuan snorted coldly, "Zhang Li, stop playing with him. He will imitate him."

That doesn't work.

Zhang Li made friends with Yan Ting in exchange for a meal.

Zhang Li's parents have always been workaholics and have no time to cook.When I was young, my grandparents made delicious food, and when I grew up, I lost my grandparents and found a nanny.

The nanny's surname is Lin. Zhang Li still remembers that she has a beautiful smile, small crooked eyes, and a dialect that makes people feel very kind.

At that time, she was called Sister Xiaolin. Zhang Li had no brothers and sisters. Sister Xiaolin was like his own sister. It was his first good impression of women besides his mother.

Elder sister Xiao Lin didn't stay for long, about a year, when she came back from the countryside, she brought back big bags of special products, and stuffed them all to Zhang Li.

Zhang's parents and Zhang's mother did not allow snacks at home, so Xiao Lin quietly packed them in a big cloth bag and stuffed them under the bed, "Remember to be here, remember to eat."

I didn't plan to come back.They are already engaged in the countryside, and they are going to get married when they go back.Think about being prepared to stay a few more days until the end of the month.

In the end, Zhang Li didn't remember the pile of food under the bed. When Zhang's mother had time to clean up, she changed the bed, only to find that all of them had expired.

Zhang's father showed a rare smile, "You kept it quietly, because you are afraid that we will steal it from you?"

"Sister Xiaolin gave it to me."

It has been several years since then.

The people you meet in your life come and go like a revolving lantern.Some are just a scene.

Thanks to the pile of expired snacks, Zhang Li began to recall the old man's voice and smile in his mind.

Digging deeper bit by bit, I suddenly remembered the days when I was in the square dance team with my grandparents.

"Grandson, hurry up and give grandpa a face."

Zhang Li suddenly decided to learn to cook.I also miss the taste of my grandparents' meals, and I don't want to go back and forth with my parents in the staff canteen all the time.

trouble.

Grandpa was a cook before he retired. He didn't study much and could barely write a few words.

At the bottom of the box is the recipe book that my grandfather made during his lifetime.With one stroke and one stroke, there are words and pictures.

Father Zhang dug it out and patted the ashes, "It's yours."

Zhang Li still remembered Yan Ting's surprise when he heard these things.He patted his stomach bohemianly after he was full, and immediately sat upright, "Comrade Zhang Li, you have worked hard."

……

Zhang Li is not good at communicating with people, but Yan Ting is the one he wants to take the initiative to communicate with.He flipped through the thoughts in his head, and poured them all out as if he couldn't vomit quickly.Only now did he start to panic, "Will you be annoyed when I say this?"

Yan Ting glared at him, "Is that kind of person?"

Zhang Li shook his head, "I don't know what to say, I just say what comes to mind."

The more afraid you are, the less you dare to speak, the less you dare to speak, the less you can speak.

Yan Ting laughed, "Zhang Li, your social barrier is too serious."

Zhang Li's heart trembled, "I'm going to wash the dishes. You should watch TV first. There is a family drama on CCTV [-] in the past two days, which is quite good. You can go..."

"Stop", Yan Ting grabbed him, "So afraid to talk to me?"

Zhang Li still lowered his head, his palms were already dripping with sweat.

"Do you want a change?"

You need a change.

That's what Dad told him.It is impossible for a person to be a lone boat on the river.There are tens of thousands of connections in the world, and there is no way to completely avoid them.

Besides, Zhang Li didn't completely resist interacting with people.

He just doesn't know how to do it.

Yan Ting's voice became more and more gentle, "Look up, Zhang Li. Tell me, do you want to change the status quo?"

"Or are you willing to live your life with your head down like this?"

There are shy ones who are shy, and introverted ones who are introverted and cute.But Zhang Li is neither shy nor introverted, he is sick.

I have a disease that makes me nervous when interacting with people.

Get medical treatment when you are sick.

Don't comfort yourself that it's a trivial matter.

He squeezed his fist and met Yan Ting's deep eyes, "Yan Ting. I want to change. Can you help me?"

Yan Ting smiled, "Okay."

"Your cooking skills are not bad, let's exchange."

……

Zhang Li suddenly felt that the radiance of the Holy Father disappeared from his body, and his eyes gleamed with cunning and agility.

Yan Ting said, "Isn't it that you can't bear to part with a meal?"

He said this before, Zhang Li thought it was a joke.He looked at Yan Ting's look of contempt, and thought it might be true.

Yan Ting might really want to eat his meal.

The distance between them seems to have shortened all of a sudden.

Zhang Li felt the courage rising from his stomach, "Then say yes first, you must teach me."

……

Yan Ting laughed even wider, "Okay boy, learn to infer other things from one instance."
