ordinary human life

Ding Min gently pushed the folder in front of He Sihai.

He Sihai was not polite either, and opened it directly to look it up.

Ding Min was holding the coffee and leaning on the chair, but he didn't look at him, but looked out of the window, where there was a tree swaying in the wind and rain.

The leaves were knocked down by the rain, followed by the stagnant water, like a small boat, with the sewage, and finally fell into the drain, whirled and disappeared without a trace.

"What are you looking at?" He Sihai closed the folder and followed her gaze.

"It's nothing." Ding Min looked away and took a sip of coffee.

Seeing her preoccupied appearance, He Sihai said: "If you need anything, just tell me, if I can help, I will definitely help."

"Ok."

Ding Min agreed without hesitation, but he didn't say anything, and He Sihai didn't ask.

"It's raining heavily." After a while, Ding Min said quietly.

"Yeah, if it continues like this, it is estimated that many places will be flooded."

"Yes." Ding Min agreed with him.

Then put down the coffee cup, got up and said, "I'm going back to work."

"Okay, I'll go back too." He Sihai got up and said.

"That's right, I'll take you to the car." Ding Min said with a smile.

It rained only halfway, and He Sihai didn't bring an umbrella.

"Okay." He Sihai put the folder under his arm, and walked out the door with her side by side.

When they got to the door, Ding Min picked up her umbrella from the side.

He Sihai reached out to take it, stretched it open, and the two walked into the rain side by side.

He Sihai's car was parked on the side of the road, and it was only a few steps away.

However, there is already a lot of water on the road, and it is a bit troublesome to walk over.

"Be careful where you step." He Sihai reminded.

"Ok."

"Come a little closer to me, why, are you afraid of me?" He Sihai asked with a smile.

"Who is afraid of whom?" Ding Min was also generous, and directly took He Sihai's arm.

He Sihai opened the car door, returned the umbrella to Ding Min, got on the car entrance and said: "If there is anything, remember to tell me."

"I see, why did you become so verbose, go away." Ding Min said with a smile.

Then turn around and leave.

Seeing Ding Min walking into the rain, He Sihai knew that something must be wrong with her.

But she didn't want to say it, and He Sihai didn't force it, and started the car and left directly.

Watching He Sihai's car leave, Ding Min muttered, "What's the use of telling you, oh..."

Then turned around and went back to the bureau.

He Sihai took the materials and returned to Yushuiwan. Instead of going home, he planned to go to the supermarket downstairs to buy a frying pan and some condiments

Liu Wanzhao had already greeted him yesterday, and he was going to make steak for the little ones tonight.

Because it was afternoon, there was no one in the supermarket, only a few old men and old ladies.

Because at this time every day, many vegetables in the supermarket have been spoiled, and the unsalable vegetables will be discounted.

It’s not that these old men and women can’t afford fresh vegetables, they’re just used to it all their lives, and this habit has been ingrained in their bones.

But there are exceptions. When He Sihai passed by the vegetable area, he saw an old man who bought vegetables. He didn't pick and choose when he bought vegetables.

So an old lady kept nagging behind him, sometimes saying that the vegetables he bought were too old, and sometimes saying that the vegetables he bought were a bit rotten.

But the old man didn't listen to it, because the old lady was already dead, and she was just a soul lingering in the world.

Probably because no one else could see her, so when He Sihai walked over, she didn't care, and she was still nagging and talking non-stop.

"This radish is too old, it should be hollow inside, it's best not to buy it." He Sihai reminded the old man.

"Ah... oh, thank you." The old man froze for a moment, then thanked him with a smile.

And the old lady's attention finally fell on He Sihai, and then she looked happy.

"My old lady used to come to buy vegetables. After she passed away, I was completely helpless. How could I know how to buy vegetables?" The old man said with a smile.

He Sihai looked at him, thinking that when he was young, he was also a master who didn't care about things, otherwise he wouldn't know nothing about it, so he could only say that the old lady took good care of him during his lifetime.

After all, he was a stranger, so the old man left with a shopping basket after saying a few words.

He Sihai didn't catch up and talk too much, but turned to look at the old lady beside him.

"He is a scholar."

The old lady explained to the old man.

What happened to the scholar?Are scholars superior to others?

Well, in the age of the old lady, scholars were really superior to others. Although they failed for a while, they got up again soon.

Looking at the old lady in front of him, for some reason, He Sihai suddenly thought of another old lady Guan Shuyi he met in Dali, that old lady with a poet husband.

She lost herself completely all her life and lived for the poet.

It wasn't until He Sihai helped her untie her knot that she completely let go.

And the old lady in front of her is almost the same.

Seeing that even if she died, she couldn't worry about the old man, He Sihai didn't say anything, she had to explain something for the old man.

It can be seen that she has feelings for the old man.

"Are you unwilling to leave because you are worried about him?"

He Sihai asked as he walked towards the kitchen utensils area.

The old lady followed beside her with her hands behind her back, and said, "I've taken care of him all my life, so I'm really worried."

"Don't you have any children?"

The old lady didn't speak, she was silent for a while before she said: "There are three sons."

"Aren't they willing to take care of it?"

The old lady nodded, and then hurriedly explained: "They are not unfilial, but because they are busy with work, they will give us alimony every month."

"Well, if you have money, you can hire a nanny."

"I have invited a few. The old man has a bad temper and always makes troubles. Now the intermediary company is not willing to send people."

Well, He Sihai doesn't know what to say.

When he came to the kitchen utensils area, He Sihai picked up a pan and looked through it.

"What are you buying the pot for?" the old lady asked curiously.

"For frying steak."

"Then buy pig iron. Pig iron has the worst thermal conductivity, it is easy to control the heat, and the fried steak will not be too greasy."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, can I still lie to you?"

"Row."

He Sihai followed her advice and chose a cast iron pan.

"Pans are prone to rust after washing, so be sure to dry them every time."

Seeing that He Sihai followed her advice, the old lady seemed very excited and began to teach her experience again.

"thank you, I know now."

He Sihai actually knew this.

The pots that were burned in the countryside in the past were large iron pots. Every time the pot was shaved, because there was still residual heat in the stove, the pot was directly dried, so it would naturally not rust.

If it is a cold stove, it will be different. If it is not wiped dry, it will definitely rust if it is left overnight.

He Sihai went to buy sauces and directly chose black pepper sauce and tomato sauce.

The old lady also suggested to him that the black pepper sauce is more spicy and the taste is milder. If the tomato sauce is for children, what additives should be paid attention to, etc., I feel that she really understands a lot.

He Sihai praised her ability, but she felt a little embarrassed.

"I haven't read a book, I don't have much culture, and I can do housework and cooking. What kind of skills are I?"

He Sihai smiled and did not refute.

Chapter 1141 The road after the rain

The old lady is actually a very nice and interesting person, except that her mouth is a little broken and she keeps nagging.

She saw that He Sihai left after shopping, and she didn't tell He Sihai what she wanted.

He Sihai didn't ask either. When she wanted to help, she would definitely come to him again.

When you get home, take the steak out to defrost.

Cut another piece of butter from the top and wiped the pan.

This is called boiling the pot, and He Sihai can't tell exactly what it does.

This is what Liu Xiaojuan taught him, and their family has always done this before.

After finishing all the pre-processes, it seemed that they were about to pick up Taozi and the others from school, but the rain outside showed no signs of stopping.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Sihai, are you home?"

"Yes." He Sihai walked over to open the door, only to see Sun Leyao standing outside the door holding an umbrella and raincoat.

"Let me tell you, I'll pick up the kids from school, so you don't have to go."

"Let me go, it's raining so much outside, you don't have to run."

"It's okay, I'm not too old to move, you can stay home and cook."

"I'll fry steak for them tonight, it's very simple, there's nothing to do, so I'll do it."

Seeing that He Sihai insisted, Sun Leyao gave him her umbrella.

"I took two raincoats. Taozi is about the same height as Xuanxuan now, so she should be able to wear them."

"Okay, I see."

"Then go early. It's raining today. The school should let you pick up your children."

Sure enough, Sun Leyao was right. When they came to the gate of the kindergarten, the parents walked in directly.

He Sihai walked in with an umbrella, and saw two small heads protruding from the window sill from a distance, trying to look outside.

"Father." Seeing He Sihai, Tao Zi waved her little hand happily.

Then a small head popped up next to her, it was her friend Shen Yiran.

The little girl also smiled and waved to He Sihai.

"Papa Taozi?" Teacher Xu stood at the door and greeted him immediately when he saw him coming.

"Yes, it's me."

"Then you can come in, just leave the umbrella outside, Tao Zi has been waiting for you." Teacher Xu said with a smile.

"Thank you, Teacher Xu." He Sihai put the umbrella on the corner and walked in, only to find that a parent had already come and was putting on a raincoat for the child.

Taozi had already run from the window to the door and watched eagerly.

Seeing him coming in, he immediately rushed forward.

He Sihai hugged her tightly.
