always with you

Lin Ni didn't care about Fan Weiduo, the encounter with two high school students just now was an episode in her life.She then wandered around here, and found that the life of Sichuan people is obviously much more leisurely than that of Beijingers.

After a while, the aunts in the square began to dance square dances. Lin Ni seldom goes out in Beijing, and there are basically no uncles and aunts dancing square dances and ballroom dancing in the place where she lives.

Lin Ni took out her earphones, connected them and started singing. She walked from Nanguo No. [-] Middle School, walked through the central square, and walked into a small alley, where she found some middle-aged people playing mahjong.

The atmosphere of the market is full, and Lin Ni has never seen such a scene of comfort and enjoyment, and still finds it a bit novel.After staying in a big city for a long time, I always feel that life in second- and third-tier cities is actually good in many cases.

She wandered around, and her stomach finally started to get hungry. Thinking of the noodle shop recommended by the taxi driver, Lin Ni looked at the time. It was seven o’clock in the evening. Decided to try his luck.

So she quickened her pace and navigated from the alley to her hotel, the distance was not very far.Lin Ni found that he had just turned around and was only five hundred meters away from the hotel.

She was tall and had long legs. She saw the hotel within a few steps, and looked across the road. The cold noodle stall at the entrance of the alley had already started packing up.Lin Ni thought that in all likelihood, the noodle restaurant should be closed.But with a little luck, he walked into the alley to find out.

It wasn't until Lin Ni walked inside that he realized that the alley was not very conspicuous. Since the driver could recommend that noodle restaurant, the business should be good.

Continuing to walk inside, Lin Ni found that the light had dimmed, and some orange light bulbs with very low wattage were hung on the side of the road for illumination.

Lin Ni kept walking forward, and began to think that the door should be closed, but she just started to have this idea in her heart, and immediately saw a noodle restaurant called "Beef Noodles", the lights were still on, Lin Ni thought The name is also simple. I have never seen such a name. Don’t most noodle restaurants have a prefix?

She walked forward quickly and found a woman in her 40s and [-]s was cleaning the front of her house, sweeping all the garbage into an iron bucket. It seemed that the owner of the shop really liked cleaning. The benches and tables outside the house All polished.However, Lin Ni looked from a distance, and the owner of the shop was probably about to close the stall, because there was no steam coming out of the noodle shop, and there were no customers.

She hesitated for a while, ready to go back.

Xue Hui swept the floor and looked at a girl all the way away who was wearing all black and a black mask. Those who didn't know thought she was the boss of a gangster.

Xue met her and stayed at the door for a while, looked at her a few times, and was about to go back.Xue Hui has seen this situation several times, most of them were foreign customers who arrived late, and they were embarrassed to see the stall closed, so they had to leave.

So Xue Hui stopped the broom in his hand and called out to Lin Ni: "Girl, do you want to eat beef noodles? Come here if you want to eat."

What came into Lin Ni's ears was a clear and enthusiastic voice, which was different from the mechanical voice she heard in big cities. She turned around, and the proprietress of the meet and greet shop was smiling warmly at her. laugh.

The noodle restaurant is in an alley, and the 80s orange light and low-wattage light bulbs are hung. But Lin Ni still feels sad when she recalls this scene many years later. It was the first time she saw Fan Linqiu's mother.

Lin Ni turned around, turned back, and walked into the noodle shop. The proprietress reheated the pot for cooking noodles, spoke authentic Sichuan dialect, and asked Lin Ni how much to eat.

Lin Ni took off his mask and said one or two noodles. Xue Hui heard it, and it turned out that he was a foreigner and spoke Mandarin.

"Girl, where are you from~"

"Auntie, I'm from Beijing." Lin Ni smiled when she said this. She doesn't smile often at work, and her colleagues say she has facial paralysis. I know why I always feel that the atmosphere is serious, and it's hard to laugh.Most of the patients in their department are patients with serious conditions, and they usually need to stay in the hospital for a long time.

"No wonder, your accent seems to be from outsider."

Xue Hui glanced at Lin Ni, and found that she was very beautiful, with good skin. There are many beauties in Sichuan, and Lin Ni is also a conspicuous beauty among the beauties.Seeing that her nose was red, she probably felt a little cold, so Xue Hui yelled into the inner room: "Lin Qiu, pour some hot water for this sister, by the way, you have been doing homework for so long, come out and have a rest !"

Fan Linqiu was doing math homework. She liked math very much and found it very interesting. When Xue Hui called her, she had just finished the last problem, so she got up, poured a cup of hot water from a disposable paper cup, and prepared to serve it outside. sent to the guests.

In fact, there is only a curtain between the inside and the outside. There is also a very simple decoration inside. It is a table for my usual homework here, and a bed. Usually in the afternoon, there is usually nothing in the store. People, Xue Hui will sleep here for a while.Then there is a water dispenser.

Fan Linqiu put the water into the paper cup, and as soon as she opened the curtain, she found that there was indeed a guest sitting outside with his back facing her, but Fan Linqiu suddenly thought that he bumped into him after school today. The elder sister who arrived seemed to be wearing a black coat as well.Fan Linqiu shook her head, thinking it was impossible for such a strange thing to happen, so she held the paper cup in her hand and walked towards that person. For some reason, as she got closer and closer to the person, Fan Linqiu felt My head suddenly became tense for no reason.

As she got closer, Fan Linqiu lowered her head, and finally her eyes fell on the table. She put the paper cup on the table and said softly, "Be careful, the water is a little hot."

The other party didn't respond to him immediately, but Fan Linqiu could feel her eyes resting on him, and then Fan Linqiu heard a very soft word.

"Hi~"

Only then did she dare to look up, it was those eyes, looking at her and smiling at the moment, it was just as she imagined, she looked so beautiful without a mask.

Fan Linqiu stood on the spot, a little at a loss, she was still wearing her school uniform, pinching the seam of her trousers on the outside of her thigh nervously.

Lin Ni pursed her lips and her eyes were full of smiles. She picked up the paper cup and took a sip. It wasn't very hot. She thought the girl standing in front of her was very cute.

Lin Ni thought about it carefully, she had not seen such a pure and clean girl for a long time. In the city she lived in, many adolescent girls had already learned how to dye their hair, go to bars, smoke and drink, not to mention Down.

But the girl standing in front of him now seems to have grown up from clear water, giving her a clean feeling.

"Lin Qiu, come here and bring the noodles to my sister." Lin Qiu was stunned for a long time, until Xue Hui called her, then she came back to her senses and ran over to bring the noodles to Lin Ni.

This beef noodle shop really lived up to its reputation, and the aroma already whetted Lin Ni's appetite before he started eating it.

Fan Linqiu took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder and handed them to Lin Ni. At this moment, she seemed to be the waiter specially sent by Xuehui, and wanted to do the best in every step.

"Sister, use these chopsticks. My mother scalded them, and there will be no bacteria. Disposable chopsticks are not environmentally friendly."

When Lin Ni heard this, she burst out laughing. She took the chopsticks from the other party and started eating noodles.

Fan Linqiu stood in front of Lin Ni, and after giving Lin Ni the chopsticks, he suddenly felt at a loss, not knowing what to do.

"If you're not in a hurry to do your homework, you can sit across from me."

Fan Linqiu was a little hesitant. She actually wanted to go back to do her homework, but the person in front of her gave her a different first impression, and she bumped into her after school this afternoon. At that time, she ran away before apologizing. , Will the other party feel that he is very rude?

So Fan Linqiu sat opposite Lin Ni, with her ten fingers crossed together, watching Lin Ni eat beef noodles.

The atmosphere is quiet.

"Uh, would you like to try my chili sauce?"

Lin Ni actually doesn't eat chili, but she still said, "You can have some."

Fan Linqiu dug a spoon and prepared to put it in the noodles for her, but Lin Ni stopped him in time, "Haha, half a spoon is enough~"

Lin Qiu had a thin skin, and felt a little embarrassed when he heard it.She has never been so warm to a customer.

Put half a spoonful of chili sauce into Lin Ni's beef noodles. Lin Ni picked up a chopstick. It was indeed very fragrant, and it was not as spicy as she imagined.

So she praised without hesitation: "Your beef noodles are really delicious. My taxi driver recommended it to me today. It's a worthwhile trip~"

Xue Hui was very happy when she heard it. In short, she never gets tired of hearing customers praise the delicious noodles she made.

Lin Ni drank two sips of warm water while eating noodles.She saw that Fan Linqiu was still wearing her school uniform, and she was sitting very straight even when she was eating noodles. Lin Ni could tell at a glance that this was the sitting posture of a schoolmaster. She remembered that an old professor once taught them about body psychology. .

Among them, it talked about the sitting postures of scumbags and bullies.

"Are you a senior in high school?"

This was the first question Lin Ni asked Fan Linqiu. She didn't dare to look at Lin Ni, but just looked at her hand, which was smooth and had long fingers.Fan Linqiu subconsciously retracted his hands into the sleeves of his school uniform. Of course, this action did not escape Lin Ni's eyes.But she pretended not to see it.

"Well, there are still four months left for the college entrance examination."

"Have you decided which school you want to go to?"

"Tsinghua University."

Fan Linqiu said these two words silently in her heart, but she didn't really say them.

The answer she gave Lin Ni was that it might be a university in Beijing.

Lin Ni burst into a smile when she heard this, but she didn't tell Fan Linqiu that she graduated from Tsinghua University, nor did she say that she was from Beijing, she just smiled.

After eating the noodles, Lin Ni was about to pay, but Xue Hui said there was no need to pay.Lin Ni asked her why, and she said that the last customer of the day was free of charge.

Lin Ni was a little surprised, thinking that the boss is quite generous.

Before leaving, Xue Hui was cleaning, Fan Linqiu put away the bowls, took off his school uniform on the stool, put on a sweater, rolled up his sleeves, and was ready to wash the dishes.

Lin Ni took out two 100 yuan bills from her wallet, and stuffed them into the pockets of her school uniform while Fan Linqiu was not paying attention.

Before going out, she deliberately turned her head to look at this small noodle restaurant. Although it was not very luxurious, it was very clean. Even Lin Ni felt a little warm, the kind of warm she imagined.
