Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

For Lin Geng, as long as he wanted to make girls happy, it was an easy thing to do. He had seen countless jokes in the future, so he just picked them up and teased Yu Li while walking, making her laugh out loud. Lin Geng gave Yu Li two strings of candied haws, which made her very happy. After one round, Yu Li was completely conquered, and her eyes were full of stars when she looked at Lin Geng.

After walking around and seeing that it was noon, Lin Geng took Yu Li to eat. Originally, Yu Li thought that they could just have a bowl of noodles at a roadside restaurant, but she didn't expect that Lin Geng would ride his bike and take her directly to Donglaishun. Yu Li was shocked and she couldn't help but pull Lin Geng and said that there was no need to come here to eat as it was too expensive.

Lin Geng was delighted when he heard this. Although Yu Li seemed very shrewd and even a bit mean when she opened a restaurant after the reform and opening up in the play, she was actually a person who knew how to live. She knew how to help him save money before they got married, which showed that Yu Li was not a vain woman and was not someone who liked to take advantage of others.

The reason why the situation in the play was like that later was that the key blame was on the stingy old man Yan Bugui, who was calculating every day and ended up leading Yu Li, who married into his family, astray and made her learn all kinds of calculations. But now Yu Li has not been poisoned by the stingy old man Yan, and her three views have not been distorted.

"Don't be polite with me, it's no problem for me to take you for a meal of mutton hotpot! My monthly salary is more than 70 yuan, and I don't spend much money on weekdays. It's a rare occasion that I'm out with you today, how can I eat so casually! Don't save money for me, I'll treat you to a big meal today!" After Lin Geng locked his bicycle, he pulled Yu Li into Donglaishun.

After listening to Lin Geng's words, Yu Li was still very moved. In addition, when she smelled the aroma of mutton hotpot wafting from Donglaishun, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She was really a little greedy!

Donglaishun's business has always been good. After the two of them went in, they found a quiet place to sit down. Lin Geng directly ordered five pounds of mutton, which scared Yu Li again. She quickly said that they didn't want that much. How could the two of them eat so much mutton?

Even the waiters in the restaurant looked at Lin Geng, thinking that he ordered too much meat. Who eats meat like this nowadays? Most people order some mutton and order some vegetables for the rest. But Lin Geng, on the other hand, only ordered five pounds of mutton and a plate of cabbage, and didn't want anything else. This was a bit too arrogant.

"It's okay. It's rare for us to come here to have a meal of mutton hotpot. Now that you are here, you might as well eat to your heart's content. Anything you can't finish is mine! I have a big appetite, so don't worry, I can definitely finish it and nothing will be wasted!" Lin Geng said to Li with a smile.

Yu Li also saw that Lin Geng did this on purpose, wanting her to have a good meal, so she blushed and whispered, "Even if you have a high salary, you can't be so wasteful! Just order two pounds of mutton and some vegetarian dishes. This is a bit too wasteful!"

Lin Geng laughed and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoli, you won't go broke eating this! It's just a few pounds of mutton, right? No need to worry! Comrade waiter, that's all, serve it to us!"

Seeing that she couldn't stop Lin Geng, Yu Li could only helplessly stop saying anything. Soon, a copper pot burning with charcoal was brought up, and several large plates of thinly sliced ​​mutton were also served.

Lin Geng kept frying the meat and picking up some meat for Yu Li. Yu Li was a little reserved at first, but when the first bite of mutton rolled in the sauce and went into her mouth, she no longer cared about being reserved, temporarily let go of her reserve, and began to devour it.

This was the first time in her life that she came to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot. Under normal circumstances, her family could only eat meat once or twice a month. Her father was the only one who earned money to support the family, and they had to budget their money carefully every month to make ends meet. Life was very tight, so it was rare for Yu Li to eat meat.

Today, Lin Geng ordered five kilograms of mutton at once. She had never eaten meat so lavishly before. What's more, these mutton were all top-quality lamb meat. They were tender and delicious after being dipped in the soup. After being dipped in the sauce, they were very delicious. No matter how reserved Yu Li was, she couldn't resist the gluttony in her stomach at this time.

Lin was not in a hurry at all. While he was cooking the mutton, he kept picking up some meat for Yu Li. He only took a bite occasionally and watched Yu Li eat with relish with a smile on his face.

Yu Li ate a lot of mutton in one go. When she started to feel full, she realized that Lin Geng had not eaten much and had been helping her pick up the meat. Her pretty face immediately turned red, and she realized that her behavior just now was really a bit out of control. She smiled at Lin Geng and whispered, "Why don't you eat?"

Seeing that Yu Li was almost full, Lin Geng scooped some mutton into his own bowl, dipped it in the erba sauce, took a few big bites, and said with a smile: "I'm eating too, right? It's okay, I want more meat today, just eat as much as you want, don't be polite to me!"

Yu Li's pretty face flushed red, and she felt a little embarrassed to continue eating. She lowered her head and stole a glance at Lin Geng, blushing as she said to him timidly, "Will you look down on me? I really haven't eaten meat for a long time! I was so out of control just now!"

Lin Geng scooped some more meat into Yu Li's bowl and shook his head, saying, "Of course not. This is human nature. I know that it is very rare for your family to eat meat. You don't have to be embarrassed. I invited you here so that you can have a good meal! Don't worry, just eat well and eat your fill, so that your trip here will not be in vain!"

Yu Li carefully observed the changes in Lin Geng's expression. After listening to what Lin Geng said, she was sure that Lin Geng was not pretending to be generous, but sincerely wanted her to eat more. She breathed a sigh of relief and started eating again.

The two of them ate and talked, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious. Yu Li gradually relaxed, and when Lin Geng kept picking up food for her, she became much more generous and really began to eat to her heart's content.

In this era, dating is really not as complicated as in later generations. In this era, when a girl is looking for a partner, she usually just needs to look at the other person's family conditions, character and attitude towards herself, and then she can basically confirm the relationship. It is far less complicated than dating in later generations.

Through Director Wang's introduction and after these two contacts with Lin Geng, Yu Li is completely sure that Lin Geng is the one she likes. She is very satisfied with all aspects of his conditions, and she is also very satisfied with Lin Geng's attitude towards her. It can be seen that Lin Geng is not a stingy person and is very considerate. What else can she ask for?

When the two of them finished eating the mutton and started to eat cabbage to relieve the greasiness, Yu Li was already too full to eat anymore. At this time, she took a deep breath, mustered up her courage and looked at Lin Geng boldly. With her pretty face flushed, she whispered to Lin Geng: "Brother Xiao Lin, can I ask you something?"
