Are you looking for a lease or a boyfriend?

"Did you not wash the rice?" Lin Shu stopped in front of the vegetable stall, picked up green peppers, and thought suddenly.

"Ah... forgot." Xie Mingshan, who was following behind, admitted with a little embarrassment.

"It's too late to go back and steam." Lin Shu glanced at his watch, it was almost eleven o'clock, and it was too late to steam rice, and Xie Mingshan relieved himself today, Lin Shu wanted to reward him, remembering that he was from Shanxi, Asked: "Buy some hand-rolled noodles, can I eat noodles at noon?"

"That's good." Xie Mingshan was flattered.

"I don't know how to make noodles. I have frozen soup at home. Put some fat beef in it, cook cabbage heart, and add a poached egg. Do you think it's okay?" Shanxi noodles are very famous, and Lin Shu worried that Xie Mingshan had something special Pay attention, so seek his opinion cautiously.

"I can do it, it sounds good." Xie Mingshan nodded, consciously picked up three handfuls of choy sum and held them in his left hand, and grabbed the plastic bags hanging on the booth with his right hand, but was held down by Lin Shu.

"There's no need to take another bag, just put it together later." Lin Shu already had a bag in his hand, which contained five green peppers.

Lin Shu took out the choy sum from Xie Mingshan's hand and put it into a bag, then asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Should you eat lettuce?" Xie Mingshan suggested when he saw the piles of lettuce on the stall, which looked very fresh.

"Then oyster sauce and barley vegetables." Lin did the math, and if it's too hot, there will be less to eat, so he said: "I still have two cucumbers at home, let's mix it cold, and make a Cordyceps lean meat soup, and I won't cook meat dishes at night Already, do you see it?"

"It's very good, it's already very rich." Xie Mingshan is a very good eater, he never picks and chooses the dishes, he eats whatever Lin Shu does.

Lin Shu nodded in satisfaction. The lettuce was a little far away from him, and it was still a bit difficult for him to reach it. He was about to ask the boss to help him get it, but Xie Mingshan had already bowed down and brought back two handfuls of lettuce.

"Is two enough?" Xie Mingshan asked sideways.

"Enough." Lin Shu took it and pouted secretly.

Oh, taller than me.

"Take another bag of baby vegetables." Lin Shu simply stood still in front of the stall, commanding: "There is also a green onion."

Xie Mingshan worked hard, and the aunt who sold the vegetables smiled and said, "This is your brother?"

"How can I have such a tall brother, my new tenant." Lin Shu replied.

"The young man is really energetic." Xie Mingshan is handsome and hardworking, and he is the favorite of this kind of old lady. Although she has a rather scary tattoo, she has never seen anything in the vegetable market, so she automatically ignores it. Decorated, praised frequently: "The young man is a hard-working person at first glance, but he is better than your last one. I will say that Mr. Lin, you are a fateful person, and it is so good to find a tenant."

Lin Shu responded awkwardly. The previous tenant that the aunt said was Li Hui, which made him feel uncomfortable.So he handed the vegetable bag to the aunt and told her to pay the bill quickly.

But the aunt kept nagging, and after talking to Lin Shu, she said to Xie Mingshan: "Oh, Mr. Lin is a good person. It is not easy for us to understand. Every time I bring my own plastic bag, unlike some people, I bought two small plants. Cabbage can't wait to carry ten plastic bags."

"Professor Lin is very nice." Xie Mingshan nodded with a smile.

"That's not true." After weighing the dishes, the aunt added two more handfuls of coriander, and said, "Eight yuan and eight. I'll give you some more coriander. It's just right for soup."

"Thank you so much." Xie Mingshan said with a smile, took out his phone to scan the QR code, but saw that Lin Shu had already transferred nine yuan through WeChat.

Xie Mingshan was greatly frightened.

Is this still Professor Lin who splits utility bills in half? !

"I didn't go home for Chinese New Year for one year." The two walked away from the booth, and Lin Shu said slowly: "I didn't pay attention when I went out to set off firecrackers on New Year's Eve. I caught a cold and came back with a fever. I didn't take it seriously at first. , By the eighth day of the eighth day, people were all in a coma. It was the aunt who came back to sell the stall. Seeing that I hadn’t come down to buy vegetables for several days, she went to the security guards in the community and forced them to come to my house to check the situation before taking me away. Take it to the hospital."

"Don't you know how to call 120?" Xie Mingshan laughed.

"I thought it was a minor illness. I was groggy at the time, just sleeping, and I fell asleep again after waking up for a while, and I didn't feel hungry because of the fever. They told me that it was already the eighth day of the eighth day. I was terrified, I thought I hadn’t passed the third grade yet.” Lin Shu shook his head and said with a smile, “Now that I think about it, it’s not sleeping, it’s coma.”

"It's so pitiful." Xie Mingshan said in a low voice.

"What did you say?" Lin Shu asked without hearing what he said.

"I mean, I won't go home during Chinese New Year this year. If you have a fever, I'll buy you medicine." Xie Mingshan said.

"Damn it, curse me." Lin Shu elbowed him, and then gossiped, "Why don't you go home?"

Lin Shu himself severed ties with his parents because of his homosexuality, and never returned home after coming to Beijing, so what is the reason for Xie Mingshan?Kicked out of the house for treason?

Associate Professor Lin combined Xie Mingshan's over-the-shoulder dragon to start an association.

"The boss comes to give gifts during the Chinese New Year, where can I go?" Xie Mingshan's non-critical answer made Lin Shu lose all interest.

So the topic turned to the vegetable seller again, Lin Shu said: "So I usually give an extra one or two cents when I buy vegetables. It's not a lot of money, but she will be happy when she sees it."

Xie Mingshan nodded, indeed, one or two cents is not too much, and sometimes he is not willing to pick up a steel coin thrown on the ground, but for those old aunts who are frugal and can go to three supermarkets to save ten cents , but can be happy all day.

Xie Mingshan was thinking wildly when he felt another elbow on his waist.

Am I messing with him again?

Xie Mingshan looked at Lin Shu in puzzlement.

Lin Shuzhi pointed: "Did you see that aunt who sells vegetables?"

Xie Mingshan followed the pointer and looked over. She was a slightly fat woman in her forties and fifty, with a steel wire coiled on her forehead and dyed red. A very energetic and fashionable person.

"what happened?"

"When I first moved here, I didn't know how to pick this auntie's trap, and the dishes she served for me were all rotten in my heart." Lin Shu warned: "Anyway, if you come here to buy vegetables, don't buy from this store. "

Xie Mingshan almost laughed out loud.

Just moved in... that must have been five or six years ago... really vindictive.

Slandering in his heart, Xie Mingshan still honestly agreed: "Understood, I won't buy from her."

The two were shopping for vegetables while chatting, and they delayed the time without knowing it. It was already 11:30 when they got back.

"You wash the dishes first, and I'll change clothes." Lin Shu arranged.

When shopping for vegetables just now, Lin Shu was picking and picking in front, and Xie Mingshan was carrying the bag tirelessly in the back. When he came back now, he didn’t even need to hand over the food. Lin Shu went directly into the room to change clothes, and Xie Mingshan consciously carried the bag into out of the kitchen.

When Lin Shu changed into his home clothes and came out, Xie Mingshan had already put the washed green peppers and cabbage in the vegetable basket to control the water.

"Excuse me, where is the baby vegetable's butt?" When Lin Shu was picking up the coriander, he caught a glimpse of Xie Mingshan washing the baby vegetable. When he looked carefully, the leaves of the vegetable floating in the pool were only the upper half, without roots, and an ominous premonition filled his heart.

"There." Xie Mingshan tapped the trash can.

There are three vegetable sticks that are as long as your thumbs.

What a waste...

Lin Shu looked away distressedly.

"Are you going to make a pot?" Xie Mingshan asked.

"Help me get some water." Lin Shu twitched in his heart, and handed Xie Mingshan a small pot.

Xie Mingshan took it, filled it with water, and put it directly on the stove. Seeing Lin Shu's strange expression, he asked casually, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Lin Shu shook his head, but he was still thinking about those three vegetable gangsters thrown in the trash can.He intends to preach, but firstly, they are doing him a favour, and it's not good for him to pick and choose. Secondly...he nagged Li Hui like this when we were first together, and was laughed at by Grandet reincarnation.

Li Hui: "Have you saved up your Lamborghini by digging like this?"

Lin Shu was very annoyed and had a big fight with him.

However, although Lin Shu didn't say anything, Xie Mingshan's ability to observe words and expressions is really too strong: "I feel sorry for the fact that I threw too many vegetables?"

"Ah..." Lin Shu was poked in his mind, and with a shake of his hand, he cut off a large piece of ginger.

"It's a little bit." Now that it was noticed, Lin Shu was not hypocritical, and said directly: "You don't think there is only a small amount when you throw it away, but the waste that accumulates over time is also very objective. Intensive agricultural production, people's The increase in material demand has caused a lot of burden on the environment, and the torrent of the environment is irresistible, but I think it is still necessary to minimize waste and do our best to cause as little damage to the surrounding environment as possible.”

Lin Shu also knew that his rhetoric was more or less official-sounding and idealistic, so he seldom said it, so as not to explain it to others. If others didn't understand it, he would waste his tongue.But today I don't know why, facing Xie Mingshan, I said everything at once, and felt tired after I finished speaking, for fear that the other party would think that I thought too much.

In that case... I will be a little disappointed in this tenant...

"So you bring your own plastic bag to buy vegetables, not to save bags for auntie, but to protect the environment." Xie Mingshan said another thing.

"That's right." Lin Shu nodded.

"Isn't it troublesome? I mean you have to pack it up when you take it home, and remember to take it with you. When someone gives you the bag, you have to return it."

"It's okay." Lin Shu said: "The earth has existed for more than 40 billion years, and life began to appear about 34 billion years ago. After that, even if human beings are extinct, the earth and countless lives on it will still exist for a long time. A person's life The longest is no more than a hundred years. We can only be regarded as guests who stop for a short time in a long time. Although it is inevitable to damage the lives of other guests who are guests with us for the small convenience in this short period of time, I hope that can be reduced as much as possible.”

After Lin Shu finished speaking in one breath, there was a brief silence in the small kitchen.

What's wrong?Overwhelmed by my second grade?

Lin Shu thought silently.

"I'm so scared by what you said." Xie Mingshan said suddenly.

"Huh?" This sentence was not included in Lin Shu's expected dialogue.

"Just... mourning for a moment of my life, envious of the infinity of the Yangtze River? That's the feeling." Xie Mingshan scratched his head and suddenly smiled: "I don't read well, so I suddenly feel... Compared with the natural world, human beings are really small .”

"Ah." Lin Shu responded unconsciously, wondering why the topic was suddenly diverted here.

"In short, I think what you said is right. I will try my best to pay attention in the future, um... I will bring my own bag when I buy things." Xie Mingshan said, and put the washed baby vegetables in Lin Shu's hand.

"The pot is boiling." Xie Mingshan pointed to the bubbling pot on the fire. After speaking, he went out of the kitchen to get the frozen broth.

Lin Shu was the only one in the kitchen for a while.

Lin Shu put the chicken into the boiling pot, watched the turbulent hot water pushing the chicken up and down, and suddenly smiled.

……

Xie Mingshan: "That... the chicken is overcooked."
