The two stood for a long time, and finally Xie Mingshan said with a little embarrassment: "Help me find pepper noodles again, my sister said to put some of that delicious."

"Oh, good." Lin Shu was thawed out of the petrification by these words, handed the pepper noodles to Xie Mingshan, and said without words: "You and your sister have a good relationship."

"Well, I was brought up by my sister, and I have a better relationship with her than my parents." Xie Mingshan nodded, took the pepper noodles and sprinkled them into the basin.

"The relationship is really not bad." Lin Shu recalled: "I was brought up by my grandma. When I was young, my parents were busy with work and basically didn't stay at home. My grandma brought me up."

"Then the two of us are similar." Xie Mingshan cracked an egg and put it in the noodles, and said, "But my parents are not busy with work, but to avoid the family planning fine."

Lin Shu was taken aback.

Xie Mingshan stirred the mixture in the basin, and said slowly: "You seem to be lax in the south, but the investigation in the north is particularly good. You have read Mo Yan's writing, "The cows stew the house, it is not an exaggeration at all. That's how my dad Mom still committed crimes against the wind and gave birth to me."

"It's really not easy." Lin Shu sighed.

Lin Shu's father is a small civil servant, and his mother is a high school teacher. Both of them and their friends around them are public servants, and they all honestly adhere to the "only one good policy".

"That's not true." Xie Mingshan sighed, perhaps to avoid recalling the embarrassment of the two of them just now, he talked a lot today: "I heard from my grandma that when my mother was pregnant with me for seven months, she was reported. The Family Planning Commission dragged my mother to have an abortion, and they were already in the operating room, and just before the operation, the doctor went out, taking advantage of this gap, my mother jumped out of the operating room window and ran away."

"The operating room is on the third floor, and I don't know how she danced at that time." Xie Mingshan shook his head with some melancholy and emotion.

Lin Shu was really shocked, and asked: "Then what happened afterwards?"

"Later, after my mother ran out, she hid in the countryside and gave birth to me in hiding." Xie Mingshan added water to the basin while talking, and carefully diluted the dough into batter: "After I was born, my father gave birth to me." Mom couldn't afford the fine, so she just left my sister and me at grandma's house, and the two went out to work."

Xie Mingshan poked the batter with chopsticks, and judged whether it was necessary to add water or not by looking at the recovery speed of the poked holes.

"Then it's just me and my sister who are dependent on each other. My grandma is old and there are other grandchildren around. There is always something to thank. My sister was five years old at the time and had to change my diaper. Just turn on the fire and cook while carrying me on your back." Xie Mingshan stopped what he was doing, sighed, and said, "I have dragged my sister down a lot, and now I wonder if she has grown 1.6 meters. It was suppressed back then."

"Don't say that, it's good for siblings to support each other." Lin Shu comforted.

"It's better now." Xie Mingshan nodded, then seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "You don't know, my elder sister is very good-looking. After entering junior high school, many gangsters tried to get her ideas, but I fought for her." Had a lot of fights."

"That's okay, it means that your sister didn't raise you for nothing." Lin Shu was amused by his slightly complacent voice, and felt sad after laughing: there is no adult to take care of her at home, and the pretty little girl doesn't know how much filth and trouble she has to face. Maliciousness, the past lives of these two siblings were difficult to imagine.

Thinking about it, Lin Shu shifted his eyes to the over-the-shoulder dragon on him again, but felt that it was not as ferocious as usual.

Xie Mingshan was unaware of Lin Shu's thoughts, bent down and took out a pan from the cupboard and sat on the fire.

"Tell me in advance that I've never eaten this kind of cake before. Don't blame me if it goes bad." Xie Mingshan looked at the hotter and hotter pot, and issued a disclaimer in his heart.

"It's okay, you can do whatever you want, don't worry." Lin Shu said perfunctorily with a smile on the surface, thinking in his heart that if the cooking is unpalatable, he will leave it to Xie Mingshan, anyway, he can't force himself.

"You said so." Xie Mingshan exhorted worriedly, and poured a spoonful of batter into the pot.

There was a "stab" sound in the pot, and the hot oil gave off an aroma.Xie Mingshan carefully turned the handle in a circle, and spread the batter into the shape of a cake.

"It doesn't feel too difficult." Xie Mingshan commented, holding the shovel in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and using both hands, he clumsily turned the shaped pancake over.

"Oh, it's quite ingenious." Lin Shu praised it verbally, but in his heart he muttered to the green vegetable cake in the pot: it looks delicious, can it be delicious?

But you have to eat it whether it tastes good, Lin Shu glanced at the broom seedlings in the corner again, and sighed secretly.

After receiving this package of natural gifts, he originally wanted to share it with the people in the office, but none of the well-off teachers had ever seen this wild vegetable, and they all said that they didn't know how to make it when they took it home, so they refused it for him. Only then did Associate Professor Lin come back with a whole sack of broom seedlings on his back.

"Would you like to have a bite?" While Lin Shu was thinking wildly, Xie Mingshan had already fried a pancake, took a piece with chopsticks, and handed it to Lin Shu's mouth.

Lin Shu subconsciously opened his mouth and ate it. After eating, he felt a little vaguely familiar, but before he could blush, the aroma of broom seedlings in his mouth made his eyes shine.

"Delicious!" Lin Shu said vaguely.

"You don't have to give me face like that." Xie Mingshan smiled and took a piece for himself and put it in his mouth, his eyes changed, and he said: "The taste is not bad, similar to what my sister made."

"No, you Shanxi people are really talented in making pasta." The broom seedlings have a soft, crunchy and sweet taste, and they are fried with the noodles until golden on both sides. When you eat them, your mouth is full of fragrance, which completely wipes away Lin Shu's prejudice against pasta. .

But...you didn't change your chopsticks just now, did you?Let's eat pancakes with a pair of chopsticks!

Lin Shu swallowed the pancakes, his brain started working again, and suddenly thought of this amazing fact, he took a quick look at Xie Mingshan.

The latter was pouring pancakes into the dinner plate with a calm expression, and noticed Lin Shu's gaze, and said, "You still want to eat? Then eat this piece."

"No." Lin Shu waved his hand and refused.

Damn, straight men are sometimes more attractive than gays.

Lin Shu secretly spat, calmed down his fiery heart, and took the vegetables to the nearby sink to wash.

"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Lin Shu hadn't spoken for a long time, Xie Mingshan asked strangely.

"Uh...it's nothing, I just thought of Gao Tianyu." Lin Shu found an excuse for his sudden silence.

In fact, as a draftsman, he never thought of Gao Tianyu who was digging a well. He is not the head teacher, and he has to guard against friction from the leader every day, so he doesn't have much energy to pay attention to an ordinary student.

But these words touched Xie Mingshan, he stopped his movements, and sighed: "Yes, the life of poor students is not easy."

"When I was in junior high school, my dad started a business. The family was fine for a while, but before I graduated from high school, my dad became too rich. He went to gamble and owed nearly ten million in debt overnight." Xie Mingshan Poured a spoonful of batter into the frying pan, and said indifferently: "I slept until midnight that day, and saw my dad enter the house in the dark, took some things and left, I didn't take it seriously, turned around and fell asleep, When I woke up, the door of the house had been splashed with red paint. Then my dad ran away and disappeared, and the house was taken away by the bank not long after. My sister had already gone to college and studied art. It was like burning RMB Furnace, we were poor and cried to each other every day. In the end, I had no other choice, so I dropped out of school and worked part-time so that my sister could finish college.”

This was already ten years ago, the past follows the wind, and now Xie Mingshan can already talk about these old things in a teasing tone, but at the end he followed up with a little melancholy: "Fortunately, Gao Tianyu went to college , the road ahead is always easier."

Lin Shu was worried, and after a while he came to his senses and said in shock, "The pancakes are mushy!"

……

The next day, Lin Shu had no class in the morning. He lay on the bed until [-]:[-] and came out of the bedroom slowly. He saw a plate and a note on the dining table:

[In the morning, I have to eat all the leftover pancakes from yesterday. 】

There were too many pancakes made yesterday, and the two of them still had a lot left after they ate them. Lin Shu, who hadn’t eaten leftovers for a long time after working with Xie Mingshan, sighed and poked at the pancakes that had been heated and cooled. Cake, poke out the one that Xie Mingshan baked yesterday.

"Damn it!" Lin Shu looked at the plate in disbelief, and for the first time discovered that Xie Mingshan's calm and reliable appearance had this kind of mischief.

"I didn't expect you, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to betray the revolution." Lin Shu frowned, shook Xie Mingshan's note, and threw it back on the table.

However, when eating, Lin Shuguang always glanced at the note unconsciously. Lin Shu stared at the vigorous font for a long time, finally put down his chopsticks, sighed, and wrote a text message to Gao Tianyu.

【I heard from your homeroom teacher that your English is good. I have a job as an interpreter. Come to my office at three o'clock in the afternoon. 】

After Lin Shu sent the text message, he still felt a bit pained.Originally, he planned to do this translation by himself. The price was right and the number of words was not too many. It was about 1 yuan, which was just enough to subsidize his own insurance. After Gao Tianyu finished the translation, Lin Shu had to show him again, otherwise if something went wrong, his face would not look good, and he would have to spend a lot of time in vain if the money was gone. Lin Shu felt that he was After losing his wife and losing his army, he flexed his index finger in distress and flicked Xie Mingshan's message to vent his anger.

The poor note was bounced by Lin Shu like a paper frog, and finally fell into a water stain.

Lin Shu:!

Lin Shu quickly rescued the note, grabbed the napkin next to it to dry it, and honestly put it aside, not daring to play anymore.

After he finished his meal, Lin Shu packed up the note and the used tissue, but he held the note and hung it above the trash can for a long while, and finally put it in his bedroom.

Just... throwing someone else's note in the trash can... impolite.

Lin Shu adjusted his tie in front of the full-length mirror, thinking righteously.
