See Nanshan leisurely

After seeing the examination room, Lan Shan took Chen Yanran to dinner.

In fact, she has never eaten in a restaurant in the city, but Lan Shan naturally has a calm attitude and can remain calm on any occasion.The two walked around the streets of the main city, and Lan Shan chose a grilled fish restaurant with a tall decoration in the eyes of the two small town girls.

"Are you really going here? Will it be expensive?" Chen Yanran asked worriedly.

It's not that she really doesn't care about ordinary things. Now that her parents are not at home, she and Chen Youran can only rely on themselves, and they can no longer spend money as laxly as before. They have to plan carefully.

Although when she went out, she watched Chen Youran give Lan Shan 200 yuan, which was definitely enough, but she was still a little worried.

"The exam is coming, eat something good to nourish your energy." Lan Shan said, "Don't worry, we have money."

She ordered the smallest carp, weighing two catties, and chose side dishes such as lotus root slices, potato slices, lettuce, and cauliflower.

After waiting for half an hour, Chen Yanran was so hungry that she drank two cups of tea before the grilled fish arrived.The fish is served in a grill pan, and an alcohol stove is placed under the grill pan. After lighting it, it simmers slowly to keep it hot at all times.The golden fish is piled with side dishes, which have been roasted slightly dry and look very tasty.

As soon as the dishes were on the table, the presentation completely stunned the two of them.Chen Yanran swallowed, picked up the chopsticks, "Eat!"

The skin of the fish is grilled golden, and the white meat can be seen after peeling it off.Pick up the fish and dip it in the soup, put it in your mouth, the fishy smell is completely covered by the seasoning, leaving only the spicy and tender.

But their favorite is the side dishes.Although it is a vegetarian dish, it has a strong aroma and a good taste, and it goes well with rice.

Two catties of grilled fish, plus side dishes, was obviously too much for the two little girls.The two were reluctant to stay, and finally ate their stomachs.Chen Yanran leaned back on the chair and sighed happily, "It would be great if I could eat like this every meal."

"Good idea." Lan Shan laughed at her.

Chen Yanran sat up, "Actually, it's not impossible." She lowered her voice, and said secretly, "Ashu, you learn this dish, and we'll bake it ourselves when we get home. Let my sister go fishing in the river. It won't cost much. A few dollars."

"Where is your sister free?"

"If I don't have time now, there will be some later. Isn't it going to be a holiday? I have nothing to do during the summer vacation, so it would be great to make some delicious food at home." Chen Yanran laughed.

Lan Shan's expression froze slightly.Chen Yanran was shallow-minded and could only see what was in front of her eyes, but she forgot that Lan Shan was not from their family, and she had to go home after the summer vacation.

Now she is still a minor, far from leaving that home.

But it's useless to think about it right now, Lan Shan smiled slightly, "Then I'll go back and try to make it." In fact, in her opinion, this thing is not difficult, what is difficult is the seasoning and ingredients.Like Malatang, each store has its own secret recipe, which is not so easy to figure out.But she doesn't pursue to be as good as in the store, she should be able to do it.

After resting for a while, Lan Shan got up to pay the bill.The total cost of this meal is 20 yuan.Seeing the price, Lan Shan felt distressed, but Chen Yanran breathed a sigh of relief.

In this day and age, a bowl of rice noodles costs 20 yuan, a box lunch with meat and vegetables only costs [-] yuan, and snacks such as rice tofu jelly are [-] cents a bowl. [-] yuan is enough for many people to live frugally for half a month. Students can do one month's living expenses.Eating it in one meal is a luxury for Lan Shan, but it's nothing for Chen Yanran.

After eating, when I was walking back, I saw a popsicle seller pushing a box along the street. Chen Yanran was very moved, but was held down by Lan Shan, "Eating ice is easy to get upset, you have an exam tomorrow, can't you?" eat."

Chen Yanran pulled her arm coquettishly, "I have a good stomach, there will be no problem, just eat one, okay—"

The words came to an abrupt end in the middle, and the strength that dragged Lan Shan back was completely relaxed. Lan Shan followed her strength and turned back, and saw Chen Yanran staring in a daze in one direction. She followed and looked over, but I saw pedestrians in twos and threes, nothing special.

She could only ask, "What's wrong?"

Chen Yanran turned her head to look at her, with a bit of bewilderment on her face, she shook her head mechanically, "It's okay." After saying these two words, she seemed to wake up suddenly, and her tone returned to her usual vitality, "Go Come on, go back to the hotel, it will be dark soon."

"En." Lan Shan responded, and couldn't help but glance in that direction, but still didn't see anything, so she had to put it down temporarily.

But there was a faint worry in my heart, I always felt that something should have happened just now that I didn't notice.

They ordered a double room with two single beds.When Chen Yanran returned to the hotel, she took out the textbooks she brought and looked through them for the final consolidation review.Lan Shan didn't bother her when she saw this, she found out her homework, and started writing hard.At about ten o'clock, the two turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Growing up in the country, the sleeping environment was not much better, and she could only make do with it more often, so Lan Shan didn't have any problems with her bed, but maybe it was because of the pressure in her heart, she couldn't sleep well at night.When she woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, she realized that Chen Yanran was still watching with the bedside lamp on!

"Why did you get up again?" Lan Shan was startled, completely awake from the doze, sat up and asked.

Chen Yanran didn't seem to expect that she would wake up suddenly, she was startled, "I can't sleep, I'll watch it later."

"Are you under too much pressure?" Lan Shan asked.Although it may not be useless to hold Buddha's feet temporarily, but Chen Yanran's enthusiasm for not sleeping is obviously not right.If you don't sleep at night, you don't have energy during the day, you won't be in the mood for the exam.

Chen Yanran said, "It should be."

"Don't read it, let's talk." Lan Shan thought for a while and said.

The two said they were familiar with each other. After all, they had been together for a long time, but in fact, they didn't have much contact with each other, and their understanding of each other was limited. So in the end, the only common topic was Chen Youran.

Perhaps talking about familiar people or things can really relax people. Chen Yanran lay down and talked to Lan Shan, and fell asleep while talking.

For the next two days, everything went on as planned.After breakfast in the morning, Lan Shan sent Chen Yanran to the examination room, and wandered around the city by herself.Pick her up for dinner at noon, go back to the hotel for a nap, send her to the exam in the afternoon, and continue shopping.

This small city is really not big, and there are not many things to see, but for Lan Shan, who has never had a chance to take a closer look at it, it is full of interest everywhere.

Ever since she could remember, Lan Shan had hardly had such a leisurely time.A long period of time belongs to her completely, and there is nothing that must be done, and she is not used to it.But Lan Shan quickly found her way and began to consciously record what she observed.

Time passed by, the exam was over, and the two returned to Wu Town by car.

It hasn't rained in the past two days, the weather is fine, and the summer is long. When they returned home, it was past six o'clock, but the sunset was still hanging in the sky, half of their bodies were exposed, and the bright red light shone everywhere.The two got out of the car in the glory of the setting sun, only to find that the door was open.

"Your sister has come back?" Lan Shan was a little surprised.Chen Youran's job is emergency rescue, so of course he has to seize all the time, so he won't go home until dark every day.

But when she entered the room, she realized that she had misunderstood.

Sitting on the sofa waiting for them was Chen Boping.The expression on his face was originally serious, but when he saw Lan Shan who was about to enter the door, he was taken aback for a moment, and immediately burst out into a smile.When he saw Chen Yanran behind him, his tone was also friendly, "Are you back? How did you do on the exam?" He looked behind Chen Yanran again, a little puzzled, "Where's your sister? She didn't accompany you ?"

When Chen Yanran heard this, she exploded immediately, "If I don't take the exam, how I do is none of your business? Why is it so strange that my sister didn't accompany me? My parents didn't accompany me, so why should she accompany me?" !"

She finished speaking with a straight face, without even looking at Chen Boping, and ran upstairs.

Chen Boping watched her go upstairs inexplicably, and when he turned his head to look at Lan Shan, there was a mixture of anger and embarrassment on his face, "Look at this child..."

"She is under a lot of pressure in the high school entrance examination." Lan Shan explained for Chen Yanran that she couldn't say anything about family conflicts, so she could only say, "The heavy rain interrupted the power line, and the power station asked Chen Youran to rush to repair the circuit, so she I'm not free during this time, please let me accompany Chen Yanran to the county seat for the exam, I just came back from the exam."

"Oh..." Chen Boping responded mechanically, not knowing what to say for a moment.

It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, but there are so many people in their family, and no one is responsible. There is really no explanation for asking outsiders to accompany their daughter to take the exam.

Chen Yanran's angry words were not pleasant, but they were also true.
