The plan to get rid of Xie Mingshan did not go well.

When Lin Shu woke up the next day, Xie Mingshan had disappeared. At night, Xie Mingshan was still drunk, and when he came back, he didn't know anything about him.

On the third and fourth days, Xie Mingshan left early and didn't come back until one or two in the morning, and he was very drunk every time.

Xie Mingshan went out early and returned late every day, and he pressed the phone twice, but Lin Shu couldn't find a chance to talk to him, so the matter of moving was shelved.

However, Xie Mingshan does not see anyone every day, and his sense of presence at home is almost zero. After Lin Shu suffered from PTSD for a few days, he gradually adapted to it and resumed his comfortable and happy life of salted fish.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Shu got off work and wandered into the property of the community, dumbfounded.

Lin Shu bought a bag of rice on Taobao, and because he didn't receive a call during class, the courier delivered it to the property.This is a common thing, but unfortunately, Lin Shu made a wrong order. The small package of 25 kg was bought in a large capacity of [-] kg.Nearly half the weight of a person, Lin counts a frail scholar with a strained lumbar muscle from teaching. If this is carried up to the sixth floor, the waist will be broken.

Lin Shu looked at the bag of rice and worried.

"Professor Lin." It was Xie Mingshan who spoke.

Lin Shu was taken aback by this greeting.It has been a week since they met last time, and Lin Shu has accepted Xie Mingshan's character setting of going out early and returning late. At this time, he met a living person in the clear sky and daylight, and was a little frightened that the character design collapsed.

"Bought rice?" Xie Mingshan over there was not as full of thoughts as Lin Shu, and asked casually. Seeing Lin Shu nodded, he picked up the rice with one hand and walked upstairs.

Lin Shu was so happy that someone could do it for him, so he followed up the stairs.However, as soon as he reached the third floor, he was already panting a little. He raised his eyes and looked at Xie Mingshan again. He was walking like walking on flat ground with fifty catties of rice, and he was really in good health.

"Excuse me, just put it on the corner of the wall." Lin Shumai stepped into the room, directed Xie Mingshan to put down the rice, and said pleasantly, "You got off work early today?"

"Well, I just finished working a while ago, and I can rest for a while now." Xie Mingshan nodded, watching Lin Shu take out an empty rice box, he stepped forward consciously, cut open the rice bag, and poured the rice into it.

However, Lin Shu’s rice box is packed in [-] catties, and the box is full before half of the rice arrives. In the summer, just leave it like that, no matter how bugs will grow, but buy it for the extra [-] catties of rice It's a bucket, and it's not worth it, Lin Shu hesitated for a while.

"Do you have an empty mineral water bucket at home? It's the same if you're in it." Xie Mingshan made a move from the side.

"Yes." As soon as Lin Shu was reminded, he dug out two 5L mineral water buckets, and made them together like this, digesting the extra thirty catties burden out of thin air.

"Thank you so much today. You haven't eaten yet. I'll cook tonight. Let's eat together." Lin Shu felt very sorry for being made a laborer for no reason. When he looked up, he saw that it was almost seven o'clock. He invited Xie Mingshan to have dinner together.

Xie Mingshan was also polite, nodded and said: "That works, thank you."

There is also a broccoli at home, half a package of quick-frozen shrimp, Lin Shu originally ate it by himself, and only planned to make stir-fried shrimp with broccoli, but adding Xie Mingshan, the amount of the dish is not enough.Lin Shu took another half catty of spare ribs and half a catty of frozen taro.

Steamed pork ribs with taro, fried shrimp with broccoli, chrysanthemum chrysanthemum with garlic, and kelp tofu soup. Lin Shu moved quickly. Before eight o'clock, four dishes were served, and Xie Mingshan was invited to eat.

Xie Mingshan had been on the phone in the room, and when he heard Lin Shu calling him, he pressed the phone, went out to look at the dishes, and smiled: "Professor Lin is from Cantonese, right?"

"How do you know?" Lin Shu was taken aback. He was very good at Mandarin, and almost no one could recognize his accent.

Xie Mingshan ordered the Garlic Chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum on the table, and said, "Only you Cantonese must have green vegetables no matter what you eat. In your eyes, broccoli is not considered a vegetable."

Lin Shu looked at it and smiled: "I just said, with my accent, it shouldn't be exposed."

The two sat at opposite ends of the dining table. Lin Shu handed the chopsticks to Xie Mingshan, and said casually, "Have you been in Guangdong? You know our habits."

"Stayed for two years." Xie Mingshan nodded and said, "A relative in the family is engaged in development in Guangdong. I have a big car book and asked me to help there for two years."

Lin Shu nodded, and the topic came to an end.

In fact, as a patient with PTSD, Lin Shu was still very afraid of Xie Mingshan, but after seeing it for a while, everyone got along quite happily, and Lin Shu was much less inclined to quit the lease, so he wanted to understand it first.

Xie Mingshan didn't talk much, and after exchanging a few words of greetings, he ate quietly, but Lin Shu planned to take this opportunity to talk more deeply, and asked, "Xiao Xie, what do you do?"

"Driver." Xie Mingshan spat out a bone and said, "Drive the boss."

Lin Shu was a little surprised. He saw that Xie Mingshan came back drunk every night, and it seemed that he couldn't hook up with the driver no matter what.

"I had a business discussion some time ago, and the other party was from Inner Mongolia, and he could drink too much. My boss couldn't resist, so he called me up to stop the drink." Seeing Lin Shu's surprise, Xie Mingshan took the initiative to explain.

"Oh." Lin Shu nodded, feeling that Xie Mingshan was not easy.Originally, the salesman was running business, drank until he vomited, and there was still a commission when he negotiated business, but Xie Mingshan, as a foreign aid, drank alcohol, and the commission was not his turn.

However, those who follow the boss to this kind of wine bureau mean that they are the boss's confidantes, who come and go, learn something, and will have to mention a manager or something in the future. Therefore, Lin Shu's sympathy is limited, and he just politely persuaded: "You still have to pay attention to your body, drinking alcohol hurts your body."

"Thank you." Xie Mingshan replied, but did not speak again.

There are too few words.Now Lin Shu felt that it was unlikely for him to mention the manager.

However, knowing that this guy has a serious job and is not a social idler reassures Lin Shu a lot.Lin Shu continued his efforts, and then asked, "Xiao Xie, where are you from?"

"Shanxi" Xie Mingshan said.

"Datong?" Lin Shu had a vague impression, as if he had heard of Shanxi Datong

"No." Xie Mingshan smiled and said, "Datong produces a lot of coal and is more famous outside the province than Taiyuan, the capital of the province. I met a lot of people, and everyone mentioned Shanxi as Datong."

"I'm from Taiyuan." Xie Mingshan said with another piece of ribs.

"Oh." Lin Shu nodded again and again, "Did you study in Beijing?"

"No." Xie Mingshan said casually: "My boss used to do coal business in Shanxi, and I drove him all the time. Later, Shanxi's environmental governance became stricter. The boss has tried to transform into environmental protection in the past two years, so I followed him. Beijing."

"Very good. Environmental protection is very important in all aspects now, and the development prospects are good." Lin Shu got the information he wanted, and his aversion to the over-shouldered dragon gained the upper hand again. He casually praised the business and ended the topic.

Neither of them talked much, and no one spoke for the rest of the time, and the meal was quite quiet.

"Professor Lin, rest, cooking is hard, I'll wash the dishes." Seeing that the dishes on the plate were empty, Xie Mingshan stood up and stacked the plates together.

Lin Shu ate too much today, slumped on the chair and was lazy, and emotionally wanted Xie Mingshan to wash the dishes, but rationality still dictated that he rejected this tempting proposal: "No need, I'll do it, How can I let you wash it."

Xie Mingshan ignored him and went to the kitchen with a plate.

After a while, the sound of water came, and Xie Mingshan squeezed out the dishwashing liquid and began to wipe the dishes.

……

Lin Shu slumped lazily on the seat, fighting with heaven and man in his heart for a moment, and decided to let Xie Mingshan finish washing the dishes.

It's a good life to eat dinner without washing dishes.

Lin Shu spent the night in a happy mood.

This joy lasted until the next day. Today is the weekend, but Lin Shu still got up early in the morning, smoked a non-stick pan, poured a thin layer of egg liquid on it, and fried a piece of burnt and fragrant. Egg cakes, to dry on a plate.

Since breaking up with her ex-boyfriend, Lin Shu hasn't had a good breakfast for a long time.

Cantonese people pay attention to dinner, just like last night, there must be a stir-fried vegetable, but you can’t just eat vegetables, Lin Shu thought that after a hard day, he still wanted to eat some meat dishes to reward himself at night, so he fiddled around , a person eats a bowl of rice with two dishes at night, sometimes with soup, and leftovers are inevitable.

Lin Shu was reluctant to throw it away, so he could only bite the bullet and continue eating the next morning.

In fact, we Cantonese are also very particular about morning tea.

Lin Shu was unhappy eating the leftovers from last night.

But today was different, with Xie Mingshan added, the dinner was eaten up, so that Lin Shu could finally enjoy a pleasant breakfast after half a year.

Feeling the aroma of rice churning in the pot, Lin Shu once again felt that Xie Mingshan was still useful after the events of moving rice and washing dishes.

The rice was so soft that Lin Shu poured the cut squid into the pot, and threw a handful of shredded ginger into it.

"Professor Lin got up so early?" Xie Mingshan had just woken up when he heard the voice and entered the kitchen.

The small kitchen was crowded with two big men, and it immediately became cramped.Lin Shu wanted to go to the refrigerator outside to get something, but when he turned his head, Xie Mingshan blocked his way.

"Sorry, I'm in the way." Xie Mingshan also realized that he was a little in the way here, and took two steps back. Lin Shu walked sideways through the doorway and dug out a piece of cod from the freezer.

"What is this for?" Xie Mingshan leaned against the door frame, folded his arms and leaned against his chest, looking at several pieces of cod.

"Tingzi porridge." Lin Shu said, "You should have eaten a kind of breakfast in Guangdong, right?"

"I've eaten it." Xie Mingshan frowned, and said, "I was led to eat it by the people in the factory before, and it smelled fishy."

"That's because you didn't eat it in the right place." Lin Shu said with a smile: "[-]% of the ingredients used are not fresh. Please pass me the cooking wine."

Xie Mingshan looked down at the spice rack, took out a bottle with cooking wine written on it, and handed it over.

"Thank you." Lin Shu marinated the fish fillets with pepper and cooking wine, and then took the omelet that had been cooled just now, folded it in thirds, cut it into thin strips, and put it aside for later use.

"It's really troublesome." Xie Mingshan watched Lin Shu's prepared ingredients, and commented: "You Cantonese are really particular about food."

"Ja Bangjia, no." Lin Shu said casually.

Xie Mingshan: "What?"

Lin Shu smiled and said: "In Chaoshan dialect, it means that you will have strength when you are full. My grandma used to persuade me to eat like this."

The smell came out from the pot, Lin Shu put the fish fillets into the pot, turned to Xie Mingshan and said, "There are shallots planted on the balcony, can you pick two for me?"

Xie Mingshan turned his head and went out, while Lin Shu went to the refrigerator and brought out a small bowl of fried peanuts.

"Is this it?" Xie Mingshan grabbed two shallots and showed them to Lin Shu.

"That's it. Thank you." Lin Shu nodded and reached out to pick it up, but Xie Mingshan avoided him and went to the sink to wash the green onions.

"It's all dirt, don't take your hands." Xie Mingshan shook off the remaining water from the onion and put it on the chopping board.

Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, feeling that this person was a little familiar, but at any rate, he was not as disgusted as before because of the friendship from yesterday's meal, so he casually thanked him.

"Did you grow the green onions yourself?" Xie Mingshan asked while wiping his hands.

"No, I bought too much before, so I put the leftover seed pots, so it won't spoil easily." Lin Shu sprinkled salt and soy sauce, turned off the fire, hesitated for a moment, turned to Xie Mingshan and said, "Let's eat together? "

"Okay." Xie Mingshan watched here for a long time, just to eat, and now he finally got what he wanted, with a smile on his face: "Thank you very much."

"Small matter." Lin Shu replied, filled two bowls of porridge, sprinkled egg skin, green onion and peanuts, and dripped a few drops of sesame oil, the fresh fragrance spread all over the room.

Xie Mingshan exclaimed: "It's really fragrant."

Lin Shu: "Actually, it's not authentic for me to do this. It's a temporary idea and I don't have all the materials at home. It's okay."

"No, no, this is much more delicious than what I used to eat." Xie Mingshan praised sincerely.

The two sat down, divided the chopsticks, and the morning light with the smell of dew poured in, casting a light golden color on the hot rice porridge. Lin Shu looked at the person opposite who was concentrating on eating with his head down, and felt that such a shared life seemed like It's also very good.
