Luting Canteen

The water and land community mentioned by Tang Meng can be reached in about 10 or [-] minutes by walking from Luting.The inside is actually a circle of residential buildings in that area. There are vegetable stalls, kindergartens, barbecues and suppers, and even the police station is inside. It is a very convenient old community.The barbecue and food stalls here are very famous. When eating, I sit on the empty road with cars parked on both sides. The store puts a few foldable tables and plastic stools, and everyone gathers together, and sometimes they have to get up to give way to the cars entering the community. Give Way.

There are a few stalls that Yan Ting and Tang Meng used to patronize after evening self-study in high school. They have been open for more than ten years, and the taste remains the same.

"Boss, the pork tendon and potato baked focus are both spicy."

Ye Qi finished ordering a bunch of things, and finally sat down at their table after giving a last word of advice.Li Hui sat between Yan Ting and Yan Zi, looking around.The night here is very lively, just like in Jiangling.The night market in Jiangling also sells food, honey cakes, fruit cakes, marinated mei and mixed boiled, lined up on the side of the street, and there are noodle stalls, the soup in the stove is whistling and white smoke is coming out, it is very lively.It's just that Li Hui usually doesn't have many opportunities to go out for a walk, so he was very excited to come out with Yan Ting and the others today.

"By the way, Yan Zi, Li Hui has something to give you."

Signaling Li Hui to take out the insulation box, Yan Ting added:

"He's been busy all afternoon."

"What is it?"

Yan Zi leaned over curiously, Li Hui smiled shyly, unscrewed the lid of the heat preservation box, and handed it to Yan Zi with some embarrassment.Yan Zi took it and smelled it, and quickly broke a pair of convenient chopsticks.The rest of the people watched as she took out a piece of meat and put it in her mouth without blowing.

"tasty!!"

It was really delicious, Yan Zi couldn't help whimpering, and glanced at Tang Meng again, still covering his mouth with his hands.

"It smells delicious! Little Lihui, is there any share for us?"

"I just brought them to eat together, hey, eat less, and there are barbecue and fried dumplings."

Yan Ting saw that Yan Zi quietly took another piece, and patted the back of her head.

"Boss, don't worry, you still don't know our fighting power? Besides," Ye Qi raised his eyebrows, forgetting to look at Li Hui, "With our little Li Hui here, you still worry that you won't be able to finish eating?"

Even Tang Meng was a little surprised by Li Hui's big appetite.Hearing Ye Qi's words, Yan Ting nodded seriously:

"That's right, his wages will be eaten up anyway."

"It's over, little Lihui, you're going to do it for nothing."

The two sang and joked with Li Hui, Tang Meng worried that he was serious, so he quickly answered the words to comfort him.Yan Zi tugged at Li Hui's sleeve, Li Hui turned his head, seeing Yan Zi hooking his hands at him, he leaned over.

"The meat is delicious, so delicious, thank you."

"No, no need."

"With my brother, you just eat with your belly open. Don't be polite to him, you know?"

"Did you turn on the speakerphone for this whisper?"

Yan Ting tugged at Li Hui, then glanced at Yan Zi, who was holding on tightly, and raised his chin:

"Put it on the table, won't everyone eat?"

"I know, I know, Li Hui made it for me specially, why did you ask me to eat a few more bites?"

Probably because her brother was by her side, Yan Zi gradually returned to her usual appearance. Tang Meng saw that she was still the same as when she was a child, and looked at her tenderly.The two brothers and sisters bickered with each other, and it was very lively until the barbecue was over.In the end, everyone was full and planned to take a walk for supper. Now is a good time for supper. There are many people on the street. Yan Ting asked Yan Zi while holding Li Hui

"Aren't you going back to Luting to sleep at night?"

"No, the company has arranged a place, I still don't want to be special."

"Where is it? I'll see you off."

"It's at the Sihe Hotel on Sihe Road. If you walk slowly, you will arrive there in 10 to [-] minutes. Why don't you take Li Hui back first, I think he is so sleepy that he is about to fall asleep. I want to ask brother Tang Meng about the book , Brother Tang Meng, will you send me off?"

Hearing these words, Ye Qi glanced at Yan Zi, Yan Zi met his gaze and smiled as if she knew he was going to look over.

"Okay, Tang Meng, help me see her off. Ye Qi, what are you waiting for?"

"I'm going back to school."

After finishing the answer lightly, he handed the insulation box he was carrying to Yan Ting:

"Let's go first, you guys go back early, Yan Zi, see you tomorrow."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

"Ye Qi, don't sleep too late at night, don't cover too much with the quilt—"

"Understood, Uncle Tang, I have to say it every day, you are really like my mother, Yan Zi will laugh at you just looking at you."

Ye Qi curled the corner of his mouth, waved at them again, and turned to leave.

Tang Meng accompanied Yan Zi to walk out from the street where the midnight snack was served, and the road became a little quieter.Yan Zi felt Tang Meng by his side and suddenly became nervous.

"Brother Tang Meng, since when did Ye Qi start calling you Uncle Tang?"

Tang Meng smiled, seeing a car coming, he asked Yan Zi to go inside.

"When he was in his sophomore year, he went to take photos of cosplay, and he had a long cut on his leg, but because it was rare that everyone's timing was right and the photoshoot had to be finished, so he endured it, and then someone else saw him There was blood on the hem of his clothes, so he quickly called Yan Ting and me, took him to the hospital, and told him not to be too aggressive sometimes, and he said that I worry too much like their dorm auntie, and said that I should call you uncle never mind."

Yan Zi laughed.She could imagine that Tang Meng must have talked too much incessantly and slowly at that time, and Ye Qi was actually a little anxious, so it's no wonder that he couldn't bear to listen to him talking so much like chanting sutras.

"However, brother Tang Meng is not that old."

Suddenly standing still on the side of the street, Yan Zi looked up at Tang Meng.

"yes?"

"And even if brother Tang Meng gets old, he's still handsome."

Tang Meng laughed and patted Yan Zi's head again.

"How handsome. Your brother and Ye Qi are handsome."

"They are not as good-looking as you. I think you are the prettiest."

Seeing Yan Zi suddenly become stubborn, Tang Meng was a little surprised, Yan Zi shrugged his shoulders, dawdled for a long time and finally asked:

"Brother Tang Meng, do you think, do you think I've changed?"

"No, it's still cute."

Without thinking, Tang Meng gave the answer.

"But I'm already working now, I've grown up, and I don't like people calling me cute."

"You are indeed a big girl." After a pause, Tang Meng continued, "But in the eyes of Yan Ting and I, you are still a little sister, and even though we haven't seen each other for many years, Yan Ting has always been thinking about you. "

"......I know."

"Yan Zi, if you are unhappy at work in the future, just call, don't be bored, you don't like to talk to your uncles and aunts, and if you have a boyfriend, tell us too. He If I bully you—"

"Tang Meng!"

With a sudden sound, Tang Meng was stunned.Yan Zi added in embarrassment:

"elder brother......"

"What's wrong?"

Yan Zi took a deep breath, tried hard to hold back what he wanted to yell, raised his face and looked at Tang Meng seriously and said:

"Brother Tang Meng, can you, help me braid my hair again? Like when I was a child?"

Tang Meng looked at Yan Zi, raised his hand and touched her head for a while:

"Xiao Azusa, you are a big girl now, your hair is very beautiful now, you know?"

Yan Zi heard that Tang Meng's words had a more serious tone than before, and couldn't help but want to see something on Tang Meng's face. When he saw it, he found that Tang Meng was looking at him with a somewhat apologetic expression.

So he knew.

Yan Zi suddenly wanted to laugh, but his nose was sour.

"That's right. I have to go back. When my colleagues see Brother Tang Meng's hair-tying skills, I will die of laughter."

Waving his hand, Yan Zi said again:

"It's just ahead, Brother Tang Meng, you can send it here. I'm going back."

"it is good."

"You go back early, too."

"I know."

"I'm leaving."

"Go, I see you crossing the road."

Yan Zi couldn't resist him, and before leaving, he said:

"Tell me to my brother, I'm going to have dinner before I leave tomorrow."

"it is good."

"The book I want, you have to send it to me."

"it is good."

"...In the future, if someone bullies me, you will be more angry than my brother, and then help me teach him a lesson."

"......I remember."

"Brother Tang Meng, I'm leaving."

After saying this, Yan Zi walked to the zebra crossing without looking back. The cars on both sides waited quietly because of the red light, waiting for the long-haired girl to cross the road with her head down and her nose sniffling.
