Trivial Skin of Rebirth

Ye Jiawen's heart skipped a beat, he picked up the spoon, quickly shook the spoon to get rid of the chili oil, and took a spoonful of the soup to his mouth.Xiang Qingyun and Zhang Yuanxin stared at him, only to see that he didn't react much after swallowing it, nodded and said, "It's quite fresh..."

Zhang Yuanxin heaved a sigh of relief, took a spoonful and was about to put it into his mouth, when Ye Jiawen next to him suddenly yelled "Ah", opened his mouth wide and gasped desperately, fanning his mouth with his hand, the saliva was about to flow down.With a shake of Zhang Yuan's hands, the soup was splashed on the table. Seeing Ye Jiawen's distressed appearance, he couldn't help laughing.

Even Xiang Qingyun laughed, and poured Ye Jiawen a glass of warm water while laughing.Ye Jiawen finally got better after drinking water, and while hissing inhale, he said: "It's too spicy, it's spicy and numb, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I need to change the chili pepper. People in City S like this kind of thing Certainly can't take it."

Zhang Yuanxin also tasted it, and he was also called his father and mother by the spicy food. At the same time, he also shouted that it was delicious. The taste was fresh and numb. It was an extremely stimulating experience, but he really couldn't eat more.Ye Jiawen swallowed several mouthfuls of soup while being tearful and snot dripping from the spicy food. He also tasted the sausage and kelp in the soup. After tasting it, he concluded that the taste was a bit different from the street malatang he had eaten before. Yes, delicious food is delicious, but if you want to promote it in S City, the taste must be improved and changed to something more suitable for the local people's appetite.

Xiang Qingyun took out the recipe and studied it, and reduced the proportion of ingredients that control the numbness and spicyness, and was about to go downstairs to cook a new one, but Ye Jiawen stopped him: "Tomorrow, you don't have to go to work on the weekend tomorrow, we will slow down Study slowly." Xiang Qingyun had no choice but to agree.

Ye Jiawen and Zhang Yuanxin were about to leave. Zhang Yuanxin stared at the hot Mala Tang on the table and was a little reluctant. He had already stood up and picked up a tribute ball with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth. tear flower.Xiang Qingyun sent them to the door, but Ye Jiawen said that there was no need to send them any more, so Xiang Qingyun had to stop.At this time, Zhang Yuanxin didn't know whether it was intentional or not, and he ran downstairs far ahead. Ye Jiawen was a little embarrassed, and while retreating to the outer door, he said, "Then let's go first, see you at noon tomorrow."

Xiang Qingyun grabbed his hand suddenly, Ye Jiawen was taken aback, seeing Xiang Qingyun's fiery gaze, his heart couldn't help but hurt like being pricked by a needle.

Xiang Qingyun whispered: "Come back, okay?"

Ye Jiawen desperately recalled those annoying relatives of Xiang's family in his mind, so as to force himself to be hard-hearted and be able to take his hand out of Xiang Qingyun's.But he pulled hard, but Xiang Qingyun's grip was even tighter, as if wrestling, and he refused to let him go no matter what.Seeing Xiang Qingyun biting his lower lip and not speaking, Ye Jiawen's nose was sour, and suddenly an impulse arose in his heart, which made him rush forward to hug Xiang Qingyun, and kissed him.

Xiang Qingyun was startled by his sudden change, and it took two or three seconds for him to react. He immediately hugged Ye Jiawen back and changed his passive to active kiss. The two big men just stood in the corridor and kissed forgetfully .

Suddenly there were aggressive footsteps upstairs, Ye Jiawen came to his senses, quickly pushed Xiang Qingyun away, turned around and ran downstairs in big strides while he was still in a daze.

Ye Jiawen didn't know what he was doing, he was really impulsive just now.Xiang Qingyun must be feeling uncomfortable after being confused by him again.Just make him feel bad!Ye Jiawen felt distressed, but at the same time felt a little bit of the pleasure of revenge: I suffered a lot in my previous life, so let's treat him as retribution!

Zhang Yuanxin was standing downstairs kicking stones boredly, when he saw Ye Jiawen running down, he gave a knowing smirk.Ye Jiawen glared at him, and pulled his arm: "Go!"

While being dragged away by him, Zhang Yuanxin teased: "Xiang Qingyun is too bad, I'll let you down in a short time, and I plan to find a small restaurant to eat noodles before coming back. I didn't say you, give him Buy two soft-shelled turtles to make up for it."

Ye Jiawen said coldly: "That's right, if there is a turtle, I will definitely give it to him or not to you, and it's useless if you mend it."

Zhang Yuanxin yelled every day that it was hard to find a good man, and he wanted to go crazy with his company. When Ye Jiawen said this and poked him in a sore spot, he immediately became anxious, and he didn't mention Xiang Qingyun, and the two went back holding each other all the way.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuanxin borrowed a tricycle from someone, and the two rode the tricycle to the wholesale market to pick up the goods.There are not too many goods, but the address of the wholesale market is far away from where Zhang Yuanxin lives. There are three buses to change, and it takes nearly two hours to ride a tricycle one way.The two of them took turns riding, and when one was tired, the other rode on. It was summer and the sun was hot. Once it was Ye Jiawen's turn to ride, Zhang Yuanxin sat on the back of the car and complained: "Langhoof, you called me Come here, but don’t call your family Xiang Qingyun, is it because you don’t want him to suffer, so you call me?” ——Zhang Yuanxin recently got off work and likes to watch "Dream of Red Mansions", especially the Sister Feng in it, and especially likes to watch her swear and talk They all learned how to tune up.

Ye Jiawen let go of the hand holding the faucet, wiped his sweat, and snorted: "I just love him, why? You should find someone to love you too."

Zhang Yuanxin spat, poked him on the spine and cursed: "The sky is struck by lightning, a heartless thing with five ghosts divided into corpses! Just wait, I will definitely find a hundred times better than Xiang Qingyun, and then I will do nothing I'm going to piss you off every day! See if I don't piss you off!"

The two laughed and cursed all the way there, and they didn't feel tired. They arrived at the wholesale market, inspected the goods, paid the rest of the money, and carried the two boxes of things into the car, and they went back.

At noon they ran to Xiang Qingyun's residence, and Xiang Qingyun had already cooked a new pot of Mala Tang waiting for them.This time, Xiang Qingyun didn't even put any chili peppers, so he put some Chinese prickly ash, and put the chili sauce outside, and asked them to add it by themselves.Ye Jiawen tasted it, and the taste was much more acceptable than yesterday, but it was not that fresh, and the taste was still far from what Ye Jiawen ate in his previous life.The three of them discussed how to make it more delicious. In fact, Ye Jiawen and Zhang Yuanxin didn't know much about cooking at all. They were just making abstract comments, but Xiang Qingyun was very patient and tried to do whatever they proposed. , until they have no opinion.

After tasting several different finished products, Ye Jiawen felt that his tongue was going to go numb, and everything tasted the same.Xiang Qingyun had expected it a long time ago, and took out a handful of candies from the cabinet and handed them a change of taste.So they tasted the malatang one bite after another like this all afternoon. After tasting it, Ye Jiawen had completely forgotten what the malatang he had eaten before tasted like.

When it was time to leave at night, Zhang Yuanxin wanted to sneak out again, Ye Jiawen grabbed his wrist as expected, pulled him out together, smiled at Xiang Qingyun, and said: "Let's go first ,take a good rest."

Xiang Qingyun glanced at him thoughtfully, but insisted on sending it out.When it was delivered to the door, Xiang Qingyun whispered in his ear: "Can you give me a reason?"

Ye Jiawen said hastily: "I'll let you know when I think it over." After finishing speaking, he took Zhang Yuanxin and ran away.

In the next few days, Ye Jiawen was busy ordering posters, stickers and other peripheral products during the day, and looking at shops to find business opportunities. At night, he took Zhang Yuanxin to Xiang Qingyun's place to eat spicy hot pot.When they feel that the taste of Malatang is almost the same, they put some in a small bowl and give it to neighbors to taste. Old men and women in their 80s and [-]s, and children as young as seven or eight years old, ask them if it is delicious. , are there any comments.Only then did the three realize that it is not easy to be an innovative chef.

In a blink of an eye, it was July 7th. Andy Lau's concert started at 20:07. They arrived near the stadium at five o'clock. Ye Jiawen had already surveyed the terrain beforehand, so he assigned tasks to Zhang Yuanxin and Xiang Qingyun, telling each of them The location of the stall, and then repeated the price of each item with them, and then distributed the three divided goods.

Xiang Qingyun was given large and small light sticks and a dozen posters, because Ye Jiawen didn't trust him very much and didn't assign him difficult tasks; Ears, posters, and a stack of stickers; Ye Jiawen has a part of each item in his hand, because he wants to investigate the sales of each item.

At 05:30, scattered fans began to appear near the stadium. At this time, many of them had not bought tickets. They came to buy tickets from the nearby scalpers, or they had related tickets but didn’t want to. If you read it, sell the ticket to the scalper.Ye Jiawen also carefully observed the working situation of the scalpers nearby. He found that being a scalper is also a very profitable job, but it is a bit more difficult. The scalpers all know each other, and they have to be related to get some cheap tickets. .For some tickets with an original price of 580, scalpers receive 300 yuan and sell them for 500 yuan, and they can make a difference of [-] yuan if they flip hands. The higher the ticket price, the more scalpers earn.

After six o'clock, there will be more and more people, but few fans who come at this time buy light sticks. They still have a lot of choices, and they still have more than an hour to hang out. Keep the price low. The light sticks that come in at 15 cents are only sold for [-] cents, and the five-color sticks that cost [-] cents are sold at [-] yuan. Peripheral products such as posters are quite popular even without lowering the price.At seven o'clock, the area around the gymnasium was already full of people, and the entrances of the stadium began to let people in one after another. At this time, fans who didn't have any promotional items in their hands stopped picking, and grabbed which stall to buy. A few fluorescent sticks are about to enter the venue, so Ye Jiawen's business is the best at this time, the stall is surrounded by water, and several hands are holding money and stuffing it in front of him at the same time, he is almost dizzy, and the posters are trampled Full of footprints.At this time, he raised the price. Small fluorescent sticks cost [-] yuan each, large fluorescent sticks cost [-] yuan each, five-color sticks cost [-] yuan, and Mickey ears cost [-] yuan each.

He was busy until around 400:2000, when the flow of people was almost over, Ye Jiawen was relieved, ordered some goods, almost all were sold out, and he smiled happily.At eight o'clock, the three of them gathered at the appointed place. All the items were sold well, and there were very few items left.Put together the money received and count it, huh!Ye Jiawen's mouth was about to smile crookedly: the total purchase price of all the things was only over [-] yuan, and there was still some goods left, and the payment received was already [-] yuan!After apportioning it, one person can earn seven hundred!Just one night!

Zhang Yuanxin stared at him with wide eyes and couldn't believe it after counting the money, so he took it and counted it again by himself.They received a lot of small change, all of which were five or ten yuan. They were all thicker than a brick. The one with the happy expression on her face is like seeing the dawn of the future.When he counted the big bills, his happy face suddenly froze, and then he pulled out a blue and gray 100 yuan and threw it out: "This is a counterfeit bill."

Both Ye Jiawen and Xiang Qingyun were stunned, Ye Jiawen picked up the money and looked at it carefully, it was really fake, and the workmanship was quite rough, you can feel it if you touch it carefully.

Zhang Yuanxin continued to count money, and after counting a few bills, he took out money again, "This one is also fake", "This one is also" and "There is another one." After counting all the money, a total of four counterfeit 100 yuan bills were counted out.

Zhang Yuanxin spread his hands: "It's impossible for me to accept it, but I have carefully read all the big bills. This money is too fake. It feels as slippery as a silk scarf. I will never accept this kind of money." Ye Jiawen said: "I don't have time to look at the money, so I don't accept any money without change, and I don't even take a hundred per piece." Both of them focused their eyes on Xiang Qingyun's face.

Xiang Qingyun lowered his head and murmured like a child who made a mistake: "I'm sorry... I didn't expect... I will definitely pay attention in the future."

have to!Ye Jiawen couldn't help rolling his eyes: yes, in Xiang Dashan's heart, everyone is a good person, how could he think that someone would give him counterfeit money with evil intentions?Even if he figured it out, he would probably feel that he was supercilious, how could he have the nerve to expose others?This is Xiang Qingyun's personality!

Zhang Yuanxin looked at Ye Jiawen, sighed, and said to Xiang Qingyun, "Forget it, after removing the four hundred, we would have earned almost one thousand and seventeen, which is quite a lot. You should spend money to learn a lesson."

Ye Jiawen didn't say anything, put away all the money, lowered his head and began to sort out the rest of the goods: "Put away the fluorescent sticks, and take care of the rest, posters, stickers, T-shirts, and they can be sold again after our concert is over." Dial."

Andy Lau in the gymnasium has already started singing, his voice is so loud that the ground outside the gymnasium trembles with the rhythm.Every time Andy Lau paused, the fans spared no effort to present their screams to make up for the temporary gap in the music until Andy Lau sang again.

Xiang Qingyun has listened to Andy Lau's songs since he was a child, he has always liked Andy Lau, and he can sing every one of Andy Lau's songs.While they were sitting outside waiting, Xiang Qingyun kept humming softly to the music inside.

Ye Jiawen said: "Why don't we buy a ticket from the scalper and listen to it. Now that the concert has started for half an hour, the ticket in the scalper's hands must be very cheap."

Xiang Qingyun smiled and looked at him with gentle eyes: "No need, it's the same to listen outside, the atmosphere is pretty good, and the place is big."

Ye Jiawen asked him, "You don't want to go in and take a look at your idol?"

Xiang Qingyun shrugged: "What's the difference between watching it tens or hundreds of meters away and watching it on TV. Listening to his songs is a kind of spiritual encouragement. It doesn't matter whether you look at people or where you listen to them."

Ye Jiawen didn't say anything anymore, and began to listen to the song quietly.He also hummed a few lines when he heard the familiar joke.

The three of them didn't sit for long, Zhang Yuanxin excused himself to buy water and left, leaving behind Xiang Qingyun and Ye Jiawen.Ye Jiawen didn't know whether he did it on purpose or not, but there was no reason to stop him, and he just watched him run away.As soon as Zhang Yuanxin left, Ye Jiawen became a little nervous.He was looking forward to Xiang Qingyun's retention, but he was also afraid of Xiang Qingyun's retention, because he was afraid that he would not be able to resist.Having experienced one death, Ye Jiawen lost a lot of sense of security in this relationship. He always felt that it was not yet that time, when he returned to Xiang Qingyun and faced the future together again.And it has nothing to do with love or not.

Xiang Qingyun didn't say anything, but listened carefully to the singing voice coming from inside, followed by soft harmony.The two were sitting on the concrete floor outside the gymnasium. It was already dark at this time, and the street lights stretched their figures long and narrow. Even though there was a distance between them, the shadows finally overlapped together, looking like cling to each other.

Andy Lau started singing the song "Love Song" in the stadium.

"Love stories / We've all heard too much / Falling in love and breaking up / It's all in the blink of an eye / Why is it like this / No one really understands..."

Xiang Qingyun bowed his head and rummaged through the rest of the goods, and pulled out a large red paper.Ye Jiawen glanced at it, and then remembered that the wholesaler gave him a Kongming lantern, but he mixed it up with other things and forgot about it.

Xiang Qingyun unfolded the folded Kongming lantern bit by bit: "Why don't we put it away."

Ye Jiawen thought about it. Anyway, the cost of this thing is only two yuan, and it's still a gift, so he said, "Okay, let's let it go."

Xiang Qingyun set up the paper on the Kongming Lantern, Ye Jiawen took out the lighter, blocked the wind with his hand, and lit the wick in the Kongming Lantern.Setting up Kongming lanterns is actually a technical task, because the lantern paper is flammable, and if it is not lit properly, the lamp body will be burned up, and it will not reach the sky at all.Xiang Qingyun and Ye Jiawen cooperated very tacitly. After Ye Jiawen lit the fire, Xiang Qingyun let go. The lantern slowly floated into the sky under the thrust of the hot air, and the fire was still burning.

Ye Jiawen looked up at the small orange light that was flying higher and higher, and Andy Lau’s love song was filled in his ears, "With my deepest tenderness / I hope you will stay for me forever / Let all my emotions settle / Make everything quiet / I know you'll hear about love..."

It is said that you can make a wish on the Kongming Lantern if you set it up successfully, but Ye Jiawen can't make a wish on it.It's not that there are no wishes, but that there are too many wishes. He knows not to be greedy, but he can't decide which one to make.

Xiang Qingyun sang in a low voice beside his ear: "I know you will hear love / I want to sing a love song for you / I hope you can hear / How much I miss and love / Sing forever..."

Ye Jiawen stood up abruptly: "I'm going to buy some food when I come back, look at the goods."

The Kongming lanterns in the sky had already flown far away, leaving only a dot the size of a fingernail in the field of vision.At this time, the superheated air finally ignited the lamp body, and the small lantern turned into a ball of red fire, which slowly sank. The fireball rapidly became smaller during the sinking process, and finally annihilated.Except for a moon, there is no other point of light in the sky.

Just as Ye Jiawen took a step, he was hugged firmly from behind by a pair of powerful arms.Xiang Qingyun whispered in his ear as if pleading: "Jiawen, can you give me a little confidence?"
