I am very poor

The sun is slanting to the west, dragging the shadow longer and longer, and the hollow pattern on the wooden door swayed on the ground with the breeze.

There was a sudden crackling sound, and the pearl curtain on the door was lifted.

Yuxi came in from the outside carrying the sweet-scented osmanthus petals that had just been dried.In recent days, the temperature in City B has dropped sharply, and the air is also very dry.The residual heat of the sunlight outside penetrated through the grilles of the windows into the dark room, illuminating several pillars of light flying dust.

Just like the previous few days, Gu Cheng was putting gloves on his hands.

"Leave without eating?"

After Yuxi learned that he was studying at P University, she took care of him even more.Not only because P University is a very famous school, but also because of the distance between P University and Yubaozhai.

It's far away, and it takes more than an hour to take a bus, not to mention Gu Cheng who rides a bicycle back and forth.

Yuxi didn't care much about this before, and every time she asked Gu Chengfang if it was inconvenient to work overtime, he never said it was inconvenient for him.It was already eleven or twelve o'clock when he went out from here a few times, and he didn't know how he rode back to school all the way in the dark.

Thinking about it later, Yuxi also understood that Gu Cheng's family background must be very bad, so he worked so hard.She didn't say anything, but quietly increased her salary by another hundred yuan each time.The shooting time was advanced to the afternoon, so that work could be finished before four or five o'clock.Although this would delay the business somewhat, it would only be once or twice a week, so it wouldn't be a problem, at least Gu Cheng didn't need to cross half of the city in the middle of the night.

Today's work was finished a little later than usual, mainly due to Bai Runhua's whim, and he couldn't see the previous set, so he insisted on doing it all over again, and it was already 05:30 after all the shooting was finished.

Yuxi felt that Gu Cheng would definitely not be able to eat in the cafeteria when he returned to school at this time, so he left him to eat in the store.

Gu Cheng smiled: "It's okay, I'm still in a hurry to go back."

Yuxi was puzzled: "Are you also in a hurry for a meal?"

Gu Cheng laughed and put the bag on his back: "Someone is waiting for me to eat."

Yu Xi suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Xiao Gu has a girlfriend."

Gu Cheng immediately shook his head: "It's a good friend of mine." Several other shop assistants were setting the table for dinner, and after hearing this, they also laughed and joked, raising their voices and asking him whether "that friend" is pretty.

Gu Cheng replied "It looks good", and immediately realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, it wasn't just those few shop assistants, Yuxi couldn't help covering her mouth with laughter.

Gu Cheng was a little embarrassed: "Aunt Yu, then I'll go back first?"

"Wait." She put down her hand, went behind the counter with curved eyebrows, and took out a wooden tray with a green embroidered silk cushion on it, and a bunch of small things on the cushion.

She picked out a handful of white bodhi roots from it, strung them into a bracelet in twos and threes, and tied a wishful knot at the end, and two small red fishes fell from the wishful knot, only half the size of a bead, and the workmanship was very fine, vaguely Thin fish scales can be seen.The white bodhi root is also shiny and smooth, slightly transparent in the sun, and it is very beautiful with the delicately carved red coral.

Yuxi put the string into a small bag embroidered with lotus flowers, and tied it with a slipknot.

"Little Gu, do me a favor."

Gu Cheng nodded: "You say."

Yu Xi stuffed the small bag into his hand, and couldn't help laughing again: "You help me take this to your 'that friend', and say that I gave it to her."

"This won't work," Gu Cheng immediately wanted to retreat.

But Yuxi held him down: "Aren't you willing to help Aunt Yu?"

Gu Cheng said seriously: "Aunt Yu, I really can't accept this."

Yuxi couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't give it to you. I just said 'just a friend', so I can't make decisions for others, right?"

Gu Cheng smiled: "Aunt Yu, thank you, but I can't accept it."

Yuxi sighed deliberately, and shook her head, "A friend of mine who makes special flowers wants to take a brochure, and I even recommended you to her." She looked up at Gu Cheng, "As a result, I want to ask you to help me now." Xiao busy, also push three blocks four."

Gu Cheng was a little dumbfounded, at this time he explained that this friend was a male classmate, and Yuxi believed it or not, even if the explanation was clear, it would only increase the embarrassment.Fortunately, things are not expensive, it's just a gadget, which is more delicate and cute.

He finally accepted it and thanked Yuxi sincerely.

Yuxi sent him out with a smile, and gave him time to bring his "friends" over.

Gu Cheng nodded in agreement, and really thought about bringing Huo Yufei over to play if he had time.

Because I was delayed for some time, I unfortunately encountered a traffic jam peak.

Since he didn't need to work overtime at night, Gu Cheng didn't ride a bicycle, but came by bus, and got stuck on the road.

Looking at the dark sky outside the window, it was getting thicker and thicker, and finally completely submerged in darkness.He frowned and became more anxious.

It would be much more convenient to have a mobile phone, I hope Huo Yufei is not waiting for him hungry.

Huo Yufei was really hungry now.

Lying on the table to play the Snake game on the mobile phone, the Snake dragged its long tail and twisted the S shape on the screen.Huo Yufei yawned for a long time, shook his fingers, and the phone shook delicately, and "GAME OVER" was displayed on the screen.

There was no one in the classroom for a long time, Huo Yufei dropped his mobile phone in boredom, packed his things and went downstairs, kicking stones under the teaching building.He kicked the two pebbles back and forth, and Huo Yufei didn't bother to catch up, so he went to ravage a few leaves that fell on the ground.

It seems that after being hugged inexplicably that day, Gu Cheng can find him accurately every noon and night, waiting for him to eat together.Huo Yufei put his hands in his pockets and rubbed the leaves on the ground with his toes.They didn't make an appointment in advance, it's already this time, Gu Cheng probably won't come, right?

He glanced at the time and decided to wait another half an hour.

However, after half an hour, Gu Cheng still did not appear.

Huo Yufei shrugged helplessly, turned around and left.

When Gu Cheng got off the car at the school gate, the street lights of the whole street were turned on, and the night market outside was also displayed in twos and threes.

At this point, he felt that it was impossible for Huo Yufei to still be waiting for him.

There must be no food in the cafeteria now. If he doesn't want to eat instant noodles, he can only choose the night market.However, Gu Cheng hesitated for a few seconds, then went straight into the school, walked faster and faster, and finally ran.

In the dark teaching building, only a few classrooms are still lit.

Gu Cheng remembered Huo Yufei's class schedule and knew that he was in that classroom, so he looked up - the classroom windows were brightly lit.

And so his eyes shone brightly.

Quickly ran upstairs.

However, when he opened the door, he found that elective courses were being taken in the classroom.On the podium, the teacher enthusiastically explained the germination of the first architectural types in the Balkan Peninsula and Asia Minor.Seeing Gu Cheng push open the door suddenly, he was not angry at all: "Are you late?"

Gu Cheng quickly glanced over the faces of the few people in the classroom.

"Sorry, teacher, I went to the wrong classroom."

He closed the door, looked at the classroom number again, and then walked down the stairs slowly.

Consider going out of the school gate to eat something at the night market, or going to the supermarket to buy instant noodles.

Gu Cheng didn't have much appetite.

Otherwise, why not eat it at all?

Then a lazy moan was heard—

"It's so late to come back today."

Gu Cheng raised his head suddenly, and saw Huo Yufei standing under the streetlight at the exit of the teaching building, looking at him with bright eyes.

So he couldn't help laughing.

The corners of Huo Yufei's mouth also curled up, and he came over and hooked his neck: "Is there nothing wrong on the road?"

Gu Cheng put his arms around his waist, scratched him suddenly, and Huo Yufei let go.

"It's okay," he said, "it's just a traffic jam. You just waited?"

Huo Yufei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Who are you waiting for? I'm worried if I can't reach you." He leaned over and hooked Gu Cheng's neck again as he spoke, this time he was not dodged.

Gu Cheng let him lean on his body weight, and even reached out to wrap his arms around his waist.

"You're tired before I tell you?"

Huo Yufei complained in his ear: "It's not tired, it's hungry."

Gu Cheng smiled lightly, and the arms around his waist exerted strength again.

"Then what do you want to eat?"

Huo Yufei answered concisely: "Meat."

Gu Cheng took him to the barbecue stand outside the school.

This barbecue stall is opened by people from Xinjiang, and the business is very good. Now the night market has just started, and there are not many people.Gu Cheng ordered, especially a lot of lamb chops that Huo Yufei likes to eat.

The two sat under the glowing red tent, eagerly waiting for food.

They are both hungry.But the barbecue will take a while, and there are still a lot of people lined up in front.

Huo Yufei stood up and wanted to buy some other cushions first.

Gu Cheng pulled him back to sit, stood up again, went to the next door to buy a multi-grain pancake, asked the boss to cut it in half from the middle, and gave it to Huo Yufei when he came back: "Don't eat too much, let's barbecue for a while." Enough."

Gu Cheng's estimate was very accurate. Not long after they finished eating, the roasted crispy bones, roasted tendons, and lamb chops were served one by one.

Huo Yufei was so hungry that he didn't want to talk anymore, so he just grabbed a lamb chop and started to eat it.

Gu Cheng glanced at him, put on disposable gloves, and removed the crispy bones and roast tendons on the sticks one by one on the plate.Push it in front of Huo Yufei.

Huo Yufei suddenly remembered that Gu Cheng peeled the shrimp for him during the first meal.

He got cheap and acted like a good boy, while eating with chopsticks, the corners of his mouth curved and joked at Gu Cheng: "I think you have a caring personality."

Gu Cheng took two mouthfuls of lamb chops and found that Huo Yufei was eating very quickly, so he put down the lamb chops and continued to unpack a plate.

At the same time, he responded casually: "Really? Why don't I think so?"

Huo Yufei first put the plate in front of him, and then said awkwardly: "Isn't that right?"

Gu Cheng also laughed, and said softly, "Of course not."

He wasn't explaining anything. After saying this sentence, he changed the subject: "Then what type are you?"

Huo Yufei looked at the plate in front of him, thought hard and said, "Probably... the type to be taken care of?"

Gu Cheng suppressed his laughter and ignored him.

After the two finished their meal, Huo Yufei just took out his wallet when Gu Cheng grabbed his hand and stuffed it back.

He took a step and stood in front of Huo Yufei: "Boss, how much is it?"

After asking the price, I took the money out of my pocket to pay, and then took the unfinished package in my hand.

Gently pushed Huo Yufei: "Let's go?"

Huo Yufei touched his nose.

Suddenly realized that when they eat together recently, it is often Gu Cheng who cooks for him, at least four dishes each time.Occasionally he went out to eat, and he never succeeded in trying to pay the bill.

In this way, it seems that I... was raised?

Something is not right.
