I make your medicine

"Is cohabitation beautiful?" Li Ze dragged his suitcase and looked at his brother who was walking briskly in front of him, pursing his lips.

Li Che looked back at him, with a smile on his lips: "It's okay."

In the morning, the two had breakfast together. Tang Ren silently cleaned the dishes probably because of his short mouth. He bowed his broad back and pouted by the small sink. Boss Li was in a great mood.

Tang Ren didn't seem to like coffee very much, maybe because he didn't want to waste it, he drank most of the cup of coffee in one gulp like a bitter medicine, the way he drank it was wild and honest.

Li Che thought about buying some other drinks suitable for young people.

Li Ze looked at his brother speechlessly, suddenly a little curious: "What do you like about him? Isn't he only 19?"

Li Che was carrying a small suitcase, and the road under his feet turned into a rough brick road. He slowed down, "Clean."

"Clean?" Tang Ren's tall, indifferent and cold look flashed through Li Ze's mind, and he couldn't find the rationale for the word "clean" at all, "Because you are young?"

"Not all young people are clean, some are just plain naive."

Li Ze choked, and squinted at him: "I feel that you are connoting me."

Li Che chuckled and opened the door of the dormitory building.

After sending his younger brother to the dormitory, Li Che stopped by the shop opposite.

In order not to delay Li Ze's morning class, the two got up early to check in. There is still half an hour before the morning self-study.

"Brother, I want a hot and sour powder and a side dish."

"Little brother, I'm just like her."

"Brother, I want hot and sour noodles with meatballs. This is my number."

Li Che raised his eyebrows in shock at the unexpected popularity, and when he listened, he heard "little brother" all the time, which gave him a headache.

"Little brother~little brother~" A high school boy stood in line to buy a meal bag, and a girl who had just ordered a meal passed by him.

"Get out." The girl seemed to know him, and without hesitation sent a powerful hammer with a supercilious punch.

Boss Li smiled and got behind the order line.

When it was finally his turn after the little brother finished, he looked at the little employee who was writing down the order in cursive with his head down, and said, "Little brother, I forgot the key."

Tang Ren's frowned brows suddenly loosened, and he raised his head, a little surprise in his deep eyes. Li Che held a key and handed it to him, with some teasing hidden in his smile.

"Thank you." He took the key.

Boss Li took out another plastic sheet: "This is the key to the gate of the community."

Tang Ren took it again: "I'll go back by myself at night."

"By the way, wait for me." Li Che looked at the time, and added with a chuckle: "This time I'm really on my way, little brother."

Turn around and leave.

Tang Ren stared at his back as he descended the steps, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, a smile reaching his eyes.

little brother.

"Brother, I'll make an order for noon." The girl's crisp voice made his complexion freeze, his smiling face slowly faded away, and he returned to his calm look and continued to bury his head in taking the order.

When they arrived at the company, Li Che first held a meeting for everyone. Near the end of the year, the rice balls were officially integrated into the company's business. The young couple completely escaped the busyness of the past. Now they are mainly responsible for training the branch employees on how to make rice balls and how to prepare meals, which involves business matters. , They are also actively learning from Li Che.

At the end of the meeting, the assistant went to the office to report on the preparations for the fourth new store.

"The decoration is progressing smoothly. The glass for the kitchen has not yet been delivered. The merchant said that it will take time to make orders, and it is expected to be in place next week." The assistant continued, flipping through the notes in his hand, "The tables and chairs are all ordered, and we will wait until the bottom decoration is finished. will deliver."

tables and chairs.

Li Che raised his eyes and remembered the dining table with books at home.

The little assistant reported the current progress clearly one by one, and waited quietly for the boss to speak. Li Che knocked on the table and said, "Help me order a set of desks and chairs for studying and office use, and buy a desk lamp."

The assistant was stunned for a moment, and didn't ask any more questions, just said: "Do you have any specific brand intentions?"

Li Che thought about it: "No, order a table that can be adjusted in height, the quality is better."

"Okay, I'll make an order later."

When the assistant left, the young couple picked up a cardboard box and smiled honestly: "Xiao Li, this is the meat from the ranch in our hometown. It has both beef and sheep. It is very delicious. I will bring it for you to taste."

Li Che was stunned, and smiled helplessly: "Thank you, you don't have to bring me food all the time, I can't eat alone..." Before he finished speaking, he thought for a while, no, he is not living alone now.

Thinking of this, the arc of his mouth deepened a bit.

"Let's freeze it and eat it slowly. We both tried barbecue yesterday. It tastes very good. You should try it too. We'll get it for you if it's delicious."

He has always been unable to refuse the simple enthusiasm of this couple. Li Che took the box and compromised: "Okay, thank you."

"By the way, what do your little nephews usually like to drink?" A nephew of a high school student living in the couple's house is a third year in high school in the city. There is a one-year age difference with Tang Ren, which should be of great reference value.

Another man of similar age, Li Ze, always had Coke and Sprite in his mouth. From the perspective of health, Boss Li was very opposed to it. During the few days when he lived in his own house, Li Ze insisted on living a daily limit under the watchful eyes of his brother. The exquisite life of small cans, only dare to secretly buy large bottles at school to enjoy the fun.

Li Che intends to listen to other suggestions.

"My little nephew? He usually likes to drink milk. He is so grown up and still has two boxes of milk every day." The woman smiled gently, with some helplessness.

Li Che nodded, muttering to himself.

The distant nephew, who tried every means to break through the 1.7-meter mark, didn't know what kind of feeding ideas he provided to a stranger.

In the evening, Li Yuan asked Tang Ren for help with the questions he had saved up all day.

He looked at the person who was doing the problem, his eyes were fixed on the steps of the calculation paper, but his mind seemed to be filled with the shadow of another person.

"Lize lives on campus."

Li Yuan couldn't hold back his left and right, and wanted to share with the people around him the psychological pressure he had been struggling with all day.

"Do you think I'm cheap? He bullied me so much, and now I want to live with him in school."

"You scold me, scold me to wake me up."

Tang Ren paused when he was solving the problem, and looked up at him: "Li Ze lives on campus?"

Li Yuan nodded: "Well, he lives on campus, I heard there are only two people in the dormitory."

Tang Ren put down his pen, "When did he live on campus?"

Li Yuan recalled the complaints of Li Ze and his buddies during the daytime break, and said, "This morning." After he asked this question, Li Yuan actually felt that something was wrong: "You said it's almost the end of the semester, and he lives on campus at this time do what?"

Tang Ren's expression was unclear, and he said in a deep voice, "Is there something wrong at home?" After speaking, he couldn't control the corners of his cold lips anymore, and his smile was warmer than ever.

"That makes sense." Li Yuan saw that he continued to do the questions, and asked, "Then do you think I should also live on campus? Anyway, there is no one at home, so it is more convenient to live on campus."

Tang Ren: "Did you forgive him?"

The boy pursed his lips: "He, he has been nice to me recently."

Tang Ren was in a great mood, and the speed of his writing also accelerated a lot. Right now, he was a little absent-minded, and said perfunctorily, "If you want to live, live here."

People are like this, once they get the answer they want to hear, they will happily make a decision, as if this can prove that their choice is right.The depression in Li Yuan's chest dissipated, and he said cheerfully, "Well, then I'll tell the teacher tomorrow."

After get off work, Boss Li showed up at the door of the store on time again, and Xiao Liang, who stayed behind to close the door together, frowned as Tang Ren got into the boss' car.

Tang Ren sat in the passenger seat, glanced at the smiling boss, and asked casually, "Don't you need to pick up your brother?"

Li Che really forgot about this, and made up for it in a natural tone: "He doesn't need me to pick it up."

"Hmm." Tang Ren looked to the side, propping the car window with one hand, his fingers calmly covering the corners of his lips that were getting out of control.

But it's a 10-minute drive, and this time the drop-in trip is genuine.

The two opened the door and entered the room. Just as Tang Ren was about to take off his shoes, he saw an unfamiliar set of tables and chairs placed in front of the balcony of the living room.

He looked back at the boss who hadn't entered yet. Li Che raised his eyes, reacted, and said with a smile: "The company got it, and no one will use the extra. It's just for you to study. The kitchen lighting is not good, and you always hurt your eyes there."

Tang Ren didn't speak, and stared straight at him. For the first time, Li Che could read some complicated emotions from those eyes, with a faint inexplicable restraint.

"Thank you." These two words were also restrained. Li Che didn't know what he was suppressing, but he couldn't help feeling irritable.

It's been a month since I was younger, and I finally saw a different Tang Ren.

Not easy.

It's not that Tang Ren has never been to his company. He has a good memory since he was a child, and his photographic memory is a bit exaggerated, but he can still see the difference between the desks and chairs.

Company redundant, he lettered a punctuation mark.

In the middle of the night, the room fell into a hypnotic silence, unlike the dilapidated house before, there was no sound of footsteps upstairs, no quarrels from next door, only the occasional birdsong coming in through the window.

Tang Ren turned on his phone. At one o'clock in the morning, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

He opened the door lightly, without turning on the light, walked into the balcony of the living room in the dark, closed the sliding door slowly, and lit a cigarette.

The cold wind pierced through the thin T-shirt and blew a layer of goosebumps. He took a puff as if unconsciously, leaned against the wall, stared at the tree outside the railing, and didn't return until the smoke almost burned to the fingertips. God, crushed the cigarette in the ashtray beside him, lit another one, and continued to be in a daze.

In the early morning of the next day, Tang Ren got up early to go to work with light dark circles under his eyes. He looked at the hot milk on the table in front of him, and his brows and eyes, which had never fluctuated much, froze for a moment. Then he looked at Li Che who was calmly drinking coffee. He suddenly thought of the deep "child" in the car when he was sent home.

Li Che observed Tang Ren, seeing that drinking milk was not as painful as drinking coffee, so he nodded inwardly.

When he sat in the office and started his busy day's work, he received a rare WeChat message from Tang Ren, and he opened it to take a look.

TR: [Transfer]

TR: Rent.

They didn't sign a contract. Boss Li was full of impromptu scripts, saying that he had signed a personal lease, and he didn't need to sign a rental contract. Today's money transaction is the price after the two discussed in the morning.

Li Che raised his eyebrows when he clicked to accept the payment.

Boss: Too much?

Tang Ren had just changed into his work clothes, when he saw the news, he thought about replying.

TR: You can’t just eat and drink for nothing all the time.

Li Che had no choice but to put the money into the change.

It's so clear...but now is really not the time to eat and drink for nothing.

He hummed softly.

There is always a day when you can't figure it out.
