Qingcheng is already a bit cold in autumn, and the leaves of the two big sycamore trees planted in front of the school are blown by the wind, and they fall down like a whirl.

The roadside stalls were crowded with people, and there were also many people in the restaurants.

Walking in the middle of the crowd, Ji Lingyu grabbed Su Ziqing's arm and complained as he walked, "If my mother didn't know how to cook, how could I have fallen to the point where I have to compete with so many people for food? Really, my father yesterday It was too late to correct the test papers, and I didn't make breakfast, so I just ate bread."

"When you came to our house to eat, my ears were already callused." Su Ziqing smiled helplessly, "It's a pity that I have to go to school today, otherwise I can cook."

"Hey, that's not what I meant." Ji Lingyu snorted a few times, pulled her arm and said coquettishly, "But Ziqing, is the food you cook so delicious? If I can cook, I promise to be a French chef. Meal for you."

"Let's talk about it later when you can tell the difference between MSG and salt."

Su Ziqing was too lazy to say anything about his friend's unrealistic delusion. He poked her on the head with a smile, turned around and asked the three people behind them who were not far or close, "What do you want to eat?"

Before the two logs next to him could speak, Anji hurriedly said with bright eyes, "We don't care! Su Mei...cough, student Su, what do you want to eat, we will follow you!"

"Hmm..." Su Ziqing was a little surprised at Anji's enthusiasm, which was completely different from before, but he only thought that she had such a personality, and didn't take it seriously.

She only glanced at Mo Xiaobei who kept her head down and said nothing, and said with a slight smile, "I know a store that sells delicious food, let's go there."

Anji nodded quickly, hugging each other with each hand, smiling very attentively. "Then we will follow you, Student Su!"

She answered so quickly that Mo Xiaobei didn't even have the room to refuse.

He could only look at Su Ziqing and smiled slightly, then led them to the entrance of a casserole noodle casserole near the large supermarket on the left turn of the school, turned around and said, "That's it."

Ji Lingyu took a look inside, saw that there were still a few empty tables inside, and clapped his hands, "Fortunately, there are not many people inside, let's go in quickly."

Pushing the door open and entering, a smell of garlic and vinegar came to the nostrils. The boss was busy settling accounts and had no time to talk to them. He only looked up to see how many of them there were, and then said lightly. "Let's see what you want first."

There are five tables and chairs on the left and right of the store. Among the diners are parents with their children, as well as students like them, laughing and talking about interesting things that happened in school, while eating rice noodles, bean sprouts and other ingredients in the bowl with relish.

The scent coming from the tip of her nose became more and more tangy, but Mo Xiaobei didn't care about it. All her attention was on the price list with pictures of rice noodles hanging on the wall.

When she and her mother go to the town to go to the market, the most expensive beef noodles she has ever eaten is only five yuan, but the consumption level in this small county is obviously relatively high.The cheapest rice noodle on the list costs eight yuan.

Touching the money in her pocket, Mo Xiaobei thought helplessly, maybe she, like An Peiyao, had to buy some dry steamed buns for storage.

When she looked up at the price, several others were also looking up at the picture on it.But it was obvious that she was looking at the price, while others were looking at what to eat.

Ji Lingyu waved his hand at the tip of his nose, turned around to look at the pictures and prices of casserole rice noodles hanging on the wall, and asked, "What do you order? I want that light little——"

"Let's order the [-] set meal." Before she finished speaking, Su Ziqing interrupted her, and the four advisers on the left and right asked the others for their opinions, "What do you think?"

If five people eat 20 yuan, no matter how you think about it, one or two people will starve, okay?

Just as Ji Lingyu was about to refute, he caught sight of Mo Xiaobei's almost faded clothes from the corner of his eye, and instantly understood what his friend meant, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't care, you can ask them."

As a potential brain-dead fan who was just conquered by the beauty's charm last night, how could Angie say no and nod repeatedly with a smile.Tang Wenxian glanced at Mo Xiaobei beside him, and nodded slightly.

Su Ziqing smiled lightly, "Then you go and sit at the table over there, and I'll take the order."

Watching her walk to the counter, Ji Lingyu raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything else. She turned her head and looked at the empty table in the room, pointed to the second-to-last seat from the air conditioner and said, "Let's just go there and eat. It gets hot when you eat it, but it’s not easy to get hot when you sit there.”

Several people nodded, and when they walked to the table and sat down, Su Ziqing had already returned, still holding the dishes and spoons they needed to use.

"If you can't take it, we can sit down and take it."

Seeing that she couldn't hold it in her hand, Ji Lingyu hurried forward to take some for her, muttering, "I really worry more than other mothers."

"You speak ill of me, don't think I didn't hear." Su Ziqing listened, and poked her face with his free hand, "Be careful, I will go to my uncle to complain."

"Hmph, I'm just telling the truth." Ji Lingyu said with pouting, and handed the things in his hand to others one by one.

When handing it to Mo Xiaobei, his voice was not very good, "Here you are."

Mo Xiaobei was baffled by her attitude, he didn't know how he offended this young lady.

Su Ziqing hurriedly smiled to smooth things over for her, "She has such a temper, so don't worry too much about it, classmate Mo."

Mo Xiaobei believed it was true, smiled and shook his head, "It's fine."

Ji Lingyu was even more annoyed, and hummed softly, "Who is the best friend you grew up with bare buttocks together, and you actually help others? If it's a man, it's fine, but it's still a woman. Su Ziqing, let me see." It's your fault."

She was humming like a mosquito, but others didn't hear it very clearly, they just thought she was humming, so they let her go.

There was still a while before the food would be served, and the five of them sat on the table facing each other, awkward for a while, Ji Lingyu couldn't hold back anymore, couldn't help breaking the silence by speaking first, "Hey, you guys talk and talk, otherwise I will Thought I was facing some dumb people."

"Do you think that everyone likes to blare as much as you do?" Tang Wenxian lazily replied, "Don't eat or sleep, don't talk, your parents didn't teach you?"

"It's not time for dinner yet, no, my parents have taught me, don't care about you!"

Ji Lingyu suddenly frowned, wishing he could throw the spoon in her face across the table, "I didn't let you talk either! I'm asking someone else, classmate Mo——"

She pointed at Mo Xiaobei casually, "You come to talk!"

"Huh?" Mo Xiaobei looked confused, pointing to himself, "What did I say?"

"I don't know." Ji Lingyu gave her a white look, "Just say what you want, and ask me why."

But for a while, what should she say?

Mo Xiaobei frowned in distress. When he was struggling, Su Ziqing who was facing him smiled and shook his head, and whispered to her, "Ling Yu has such a temperament, so leave her alone."

Mo Xiaobei responded shyly, but Ji Lingyu and Tang Wenxian over there seemed to be fighting. Tang Wenxian still looked like an old god, sitting on the chair as motionless as a mountain, while Ji Lingyu, who was diagonally opposite her, held back. Blushing, he argued with her in a low voice.

If it weren't for the fear of being in public, these two people would probably be able to fight across the table.

When Mo Xiaobei was hesitating whether to go up to persuade the fight, the waiter came over to serve the food.

The man dropped the casserole with iron tongs on the mat on the table and was about to leave. Mo Xiaobei saw that the vinegar and chili peppers on the table were gone, and hurriedly turned to ask the waiter to add them. "Excuse me, please wait a moment before leaving."

After she finished speaking, the waiter really stopped and turned around blankly, "Is there something else missing?"

"Quiet..." Mo Xiaobei didn't say anything, but stared at the waiter's face in front of him, but was dumbfounded.

It was clearly An Peiyao who disappeared after school.

Mo Xiaobei opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

An Peiyao looked impatient, "Say what you want to say, I'm very busy."

Disturbed by their conversation, the rest of the people also turned their faces.Seeing An Peiyao, they were a little surprised, and immediately understood that she should be helping here for living expenses.

"Tell me, what do you want." Seeing them staring at her like a monkey in a zoo, An Peiyao became more and more bored, and frowned, "Again, I'm very busy, okay?"

"Sorry for wasting your time." Su Ziqing said at the right time, looked at the bottle at the bottom of Bentham on the table, guessed that Mo Xiaobei probably wanted these, and said, "The pepper and vinegar on this table may not be enough."

"I'll send it to you later."

After leaving a word, she walked into the back kitchen and disappeared.

"Hey, does she work here?" Ji Lingyu glanced at the back kitchen, and whispered to a few people strangely, "She hasn't turned eighteen yet? Does the boss here employ child labor?"

"As long as you can work, whoever cares if you are an adult or not." Tang Wenxian said calmly, "Internet cafes are so strictly controlled, there are still a lot of black Internet cafes that don't require ID cards."

"Then she doesn't have to do homework? What about her study?"

"You don't have to worry about that. She is a person who gets up to read at four o'clock. By the time you leisurely go to school, she has already finished several exercises. You are not her, nor her family, so much care What are you doing, this is someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with you." After speaking, Tang Wenxian turned to look at Mo Xiaobei, and said with a half-smile, "Right, classmate Mo?"

Knowing that she was saying that she was worrying about nothing, Mo Xiaobei smiled helplessly and didn't reply to her.

"It's only been more than a week since school started, and I've met a bunch of gods and men." Anji on the side sighed, "These ones are really amazing. Speaking of which, that guy Yu Cheng hasn't come to school yet. She doesn't miss it, does she?"

Tang Wenxian said, "There is such a big problem in her family, and it can't be solved in a short while. Moreover, even if it is solved, her family may not have the face to live here."

"That's true." Ji Lingyu nodded and chimed in, "I heard from my dad that that shameless old man's teacher qualification certificate was revoked by the Education Bureau, and the county's procuratorate is also investigating their family. I'm afraid your classmate Yu Cheng , I really can’t come to school.”

What kind of procuratorate, education bureau? Mo Xiaobei had only heard these words on the legal channel of TV, and now she said them from the mouths of people around her, which made her feel a little inconceivable.

Only when you have traveled far can you realize how big the world is and how dark it is.

"These things, if Xu Ji was still alive, she would have been exposed," Mo Xiaobei murmured, "Maybe she won't die either."

It was silent again.

Seeing that the faces of the people around him were not very good when they heard this, Su Ziqing smoothed things over with a smile, "Okay, let's eat quickly, don't talk about this."
