"...Sir, do you want to eat? What do you think you want?"

Seeing Lian Ge stepping into the restaurant, the waiter who was eating put down the bowls and chopsticks and greeted him.

"... Let's have two signature dishes." Lian Ge glanced at the restaurant, looked at the waiter and said,

"Okay...you sit here."

The waiter responded, and led Lian Ge to sit down at a dining table by the window on the right.

"How about I bring you a roasted chicken with potatoes, and then twice-cooked pork?" The waiter took a cup, carried the teapot, poured tea, and asked aloud at the same time.

Lian Ge nodded casually upon hearing the sound,

"...Then just wait a moment."

After the waiter said something, he walked away again. The cook who was eating also got up and walked into the kitchen again when he heard the voice from here.

……

"...Don't argue with me, I must drink this cup... No, I should drink it!"

"Let's drink together, drink together..."

"...Why did you come here to find me again? Do you know that your brother-in-law has been angry with me for a week because of the money I gave you last time?"

Sitting by the window seat on the right, Lian Ge looked at the street outside the window, and the voice in the restaurant rang clearly in his ears,

Hearing the sound, Lian Ge turned his gaze away, and after a slight pause at the table by the door, he looked at the side table in the restaurant, the young couple,

……

The older woman looked at the young man at the table with anger on her face.The young man looked at the woman, his lips moved, he hesitated to speak,

"...Sister, I..."

Chapter 242

"...Can you save me a little time and fight for my anger? Do you know that it's not the same as before. I used to be alone. As long as I have money, I can eat steamed buns by myself, or I can give you all the money. Now I also have a family and a child, and I want to live... You are always like this, how can I tell your brother-in-law!"

The young woman brushed her hair and glanced to the side, her eyes somewhat disappointed,

"... Sis, I know... I'm sorry." Looking at his sister, the young man's lips moved, he hesitated to speak, and finally he just lowered his head,

"Don't tell me you're sorry." The young woman glanced at her brother, the disappointment in her eyes became more obvious, and she glanced away.

"... Sis, I dreamed about my mother last night..."

The young man lowered his head and whispered,

Hearing this, the young woman paused, looked aside and said nothing,

"...I dreamed that when I was eleven or twelve years old, my mother was sifting soybeans in the yard, and I was in the ditch in front of the yard, wearing shorts and sandals, catching crabs...you always stood on the shore and shouted, Let me turn over that rock, turn over this stone..."

The young man said, as if he was lost in memory, with a smile on his face,

"...after catching crabs, we always ask mom to fry them for us. Every time mom thinks it's too oily, but every time I still fry them...the taste..."

"Unappetizing."

The young woman brushed her hair, turned her head, and said angrily,

"I asked you to watch it several times, but you didn't care, and you were blown up every time."

Listening to his sister's words, the young man laughed,

The young woman smiled too.

Laughing... Gradually falling silent again,

The woman glanced at his younger brother, and picked up the satchel from the seat beside him.

"...How much will it cost this time?"

The woman asked with her satchel in her hand and lowered her head.

"...Sister, I don't want money." The young man pursed his lips and shook his head with a smile.

Hearing this, the young woman paused, raised her head again, and looked at his brother.

"Then what do you want?"

"I don't want anything." The young man pursed his lips, shook his head, then turned around, and stretched out his hand towards a plastic bag containing things on the seat next to him.

Halfway through stretching his hand, the young man paused again before extending his right hand to the plastic bag,

"Whoa..."

After tearing open the plastic bag, the young man stretched out his hand and took out a well-packed toy car from the plastic bag.

"Sister, here..."

Together with the packing box, the young man handed over the toy car,

Glancing at his younger brother, the young woman reached out to take it,

"... Isn't today my little nephew's birthday? I bought him a toy, please help me bring it to him."

Grinning, the young man withdrew his right hand and said to his sister,

Holding the toy in her hand, the young woman paused,

Putting the toy aside, the young woman's tone softened a bit,

"...It's not that I'm talking about you, I just want you to be more uplifting. I really don't want to hear people say that my brother is a jerk, a moron, and let others look down on you, do you know that?"

"I know... sister." The young man replied with a smile.

"If you know it, be more confident... Is there enough money on me? I still have some money I saved here. If you want it, take it."

"No need...sister."

The young man pursed his lips, shook his head with a smile and said,

"By the way, sister, this is the money I borrowed from you last time, and I will return it to you..."

The young man was talking, fumbling with his right hand from his pocket, and took out about 2000 yuan.

Looking at the money handed over by his brother, the young woman paused,

"...If you don't have a lot of money, don't worry about paying it back. Although your brother-in-law speaks harshly, his heart is very soft...Are you okay recently?"

……

"It's okay, sister, you can take it... I asked you to borrow money before... I was cheated when I just came out of work, and now... I have changed jobs, and the money is enough for me to spend."

The young man stretched out his right hand, handed over the money, pursed his lips and shook his head with a smile and said,

"... That's good. When Mom is still here, you are the one who worries the most." Glancing at her younger brother, the woman reached out to take the money and put it in her satchel.

"... Sis, you can eat vegetables. These are the dishes you like. Twice-cooked pork with garlic sprouts, and this hoof flower soup, and hot and sour potato shreds... Sis, I remember correctly."

"No……"

The young woman was silent for a while, shook her head, picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of the twice-cooked pork, and took a bite.

"...Sister, how does it taste?"

"Alright."

"Hmm... I just don't know how my mother made it before, but I remember adding fermented soybeans. I remember that when I went to the street with my mother, we ate at this restaurant once... Do you still remember?"

The young man pursed his lips, smiled, and said,

"I still remember... how can I not remember, the three of us ordered twice-cooked pork, and you rushed to eat it, and you finished the food with a few chopsticks. My mother and I haven't finished the first bowl of rice...you eat too What are you doing just sitting there?" While speaking, the woman raised her head and glanced at his younger brother.

"... I had lunch when I came here... I just want to see you eating." The young man smiled and shook his head.

The young woman looked at his brother, shook her head,

"Next time you have a meal, don't come to the restaurant. If you order so many dishes, wouldn't it be a waste if you can't finish it? If you have some money, you have to save some money, you know?"

The young woman talked and babbled,

"Got it, sister..." The young man didn't feel impatient at all, he watched his sister eat the food, smiled, and responded,

"Just know... I'm going to the bathroom."

While talking, the young woman put down her chopsticks, stood up, and walked towards the restroom further inside the restaurant.

The young man watched his sister walk away with a smile on his face.

……

"...Sir, all your dishes are served for you, what do you think you need?"

On the side, the waiter brought two dishes and put them on the dining table in front of Lian Ge.

"...give me some food."

Lian Ge glanced at the waiter and responded,

"Okay, I'll bring it to you right away."

The waiter responded and walked away again.

Lian Ge turned his gaze and looked at the young man who was still sitting at the innermost table again.

……

After his sister left, the young man couldn't help lowering his head, gritted his teeth, and curled up,

From before to now, the young man's left hand has been covering his abdomen at a position where his sister can't see, and has never moved away.

And within Lian Ge's line of sight, one can clearly see the sweat dripping from the back of the young man's neck,

"Buzz...buzz."

The young man's cell phone rang, gritted his teeth, raised his head again, and took out the cell phone from his pocket with some difficulty with his right hand.

Looking at the caller ID, the young man hesitated for a while, then pressed the answer button, put the phone to his ear,

"Hello, Doctor Chen..."

Under the keen sense of hearing, the voice on the other end of the phone also rang in Lian Ge's ear,

"...Have you told your family?"

"Tell me..." The young man raised his head, glanced into the restaurant, then gritted his teeth and nodded,

"...how did you decide?"

"...I'm dying." With one hand covering his abdomen, the young man said after a pause,

The voice fell,

The phone fell silent.

"...Then you come to the hospital, and I will prescribe you some medicine like last time."

"No need, Doctor Chen..." The young man shook his head and said to the other end of the phone,

"...You always ask for painkillers, otherwise you won't be able to sleep at night!" The other end of the phone seemed a little annoyed,

"...No, Doctor Chen, I can bear it."

While talking, the young man hung up the phone, put down the phone, turned his head, and looked at the toy car on the side seat across the dining table, with a smile gradually appearing on his face.

Chapter 243 I Just Pain

"...Who are you calling?"

"No... just colleagues from the company."

Inside the restaurant, the young woman came out of the toilet again, just in time to see her brother put down the phone in his hand, pulled a piece of paper, wiped the water from his hands after washing his hands, and asked aloud,

Listening to her brother's words, the young woman glanced at her brother, didn't say much, and sat down at the dining table again,

"...I haven't asked you yet, you said before that you changed your job, what are you doing now?"

Picking up the chopsticks, the young woman asked while looking at her brother while eating.
