The girl poked Qian Yu's eyes hard, then turned her head and glared at Chen Minghui again.

"Poor people are poor people, and there is only 20 yuan short of buying a bicycle." The girl finished talking to herself, then turned her head and grabbed the ticket issued by the waiter and walked to the payment counter.

The girl's parents didn't know what was wrong with their daughter, so they followed with embarrassment.

When they reached their daughter who was waiting in front of the cashier, the girl's parents asked in a low voice, "I'm a classmate at school. Is there any conflict between you?"

The girl froze for a moment, and then a look of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

"No, I don't know you." The girl said vaguely, "Parents, please pay the money quickly. I'm hungry. Let's go to the state-run restaurant for dinner. Our family hasn't eaten out for a long time."

The girl's father replied with a smile while taking out the money: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

The girl's mother frowned slightly, "Xiaomei, if you were just strangers instead of having grudges between you, then what you did just now was very uneducated and made mother feel very ugly. I hope you don't do that in the future."

The girl is very favored at home, and the whole family embraces it. The whole family not only refers to the girl's parents and brothers, but also her uncles and uncles.It stands to reason that in the 80s, when patriarchal patriarchy prevailed in China, even if a girl was favored, it was only her parents who favored her, and other relatives could not do the same.But the girl's family is different. Their family doesn't know why, they have sons from generation to generation, and her father has not seen a daughter for three generations, so it is rare for the whole family to have such a family.Several uncles and uncles were even more kind to her. She called her daughter and daughter all day long, and she thought it was her parents, but she never thought it was her uncle.This also caused the girl to grow up so big that the elders in the family have never even spoken loudly.At this time, the girl's mother's tone of questioning made her eyes blush instantly.

The girl's father felt distressed immediately, and immediately said: "Okay, okay, I just asked if I was happy when I came out to buy something, why bother to be angry for irrelevant people, dad will pay the money now, and let's go to the restaurant to eat braised pork. By the way, I I heard that there is a new small store opened near Experimental High School to buy boxed lunches, which taste very good, and many of my colleagues have recommended it to me, and Dad will take you there to eat later."

The girl glanced at her mother carefully, and seeing that her mother didn't scold her, she nodded in agreement.

Chen Minghui and Qian Yu looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing where the two of them had offended the little girl, they were just looking at the bicycle, and did nothing else.

"Recently, it's a bad year, why do you have to be crazy?" Chen Minghui was speechless, even if he tried to buy something, he would be scolded.

Qian Yu sighed, "Forget it, it's just a stranger, and we won't see each other again in the future. If you can't be angry with her, just treat her as mentally ill."

Chen Minghui snorted angrily, "I don't think she is crazy, but I think he is crazy."

Qian Yu smiled helplessly: "Yes, she is insane. Let's pay the money and leave. People still have to go shopping later."

Chen Minghui and Qian Yu paid the money and bought an ordinary [-]-bar bicycle.There is a horizontal bar in front of this bicycle, and some short ladies or teenagers can't even step over the horizontal bar.

It was the first time Qian Yu came into contact with bicycles. He was very rare, his eyes were shining, and he wanted to ride but couldn't.

"I'll teach you when I get back."

Qian Yu nodded obediently.

The two locked their bicycles, bought some seasonings and meat, and even brought vegetables that they needed to use tomorrow.Originally, in order to ensure the freshness of the ingredients, I bought them in the morning and made them at noon for the first two days.But on Monday tomorrow, Chen Minghui and Qian Yu had to go to school, and Zhou Wei didn't have a bicycle, so he couldn't make it back at noon, so the ingredients for the next day had to be bought today.

Chen Minghui bought a rooster, four and a half catties, and nine catties of meat, fat and thin. The man who cut the meat knew Chen Minghui, knew that he opened a small restaurant by himself, and gave her some care when cutting the meat, with a little more fat some.

After shopping, the two left the department store. Chen Minghui put the things on the handlebars and got on the bicycle first, and then Qian Yu jumped on it.

Turning the handle of the car, he felt a burst of gravity, and Chen Minghui knew that Qian Yu was sitting on it.

He wagged his big-tailed wolf tail, "Hold me tightly around my waist, don't fall."

It was the first time for Qian Yu to ride a bicycle, and he was nervous. He didn't notice Chen Minghui's strange tone, and wrapped his arms tightly around him.

Chen Minghui hummed in a good mood, "The birds on the tree are in pairs, the green water and the green mountains are smiling... Both husband and wife return home... Ouch!"

Qian Yu heard what he was singing, and angrily twisted his waist.

Chen Minghui yelled strangely: "A woman's chest is a man's waist, you can't touch it."

"Unreasonable." Qian Yu scolded in a low voice.

The two laughed and laughed, forgetting about the unpleasantness in the department store just now, they went to the popsicle factory, where they bought several large ice cubes, put these ice cubes in foam boxes, and they can be frozen when they go back. Aspic and green vegetables, wrapped in a quilt, the food will not spoil at noon the next day.

There is no refrigerator in the store now, so food can only be kept.

"Let me carry the box."

"No need." Chen Minghui asked the popsicle factory for a hemp rope, and tied the foam box to the beam.This box is still a bit big, and I have to stretch my legs when riding a bike.

Qian Yu was a little worried and asked again.

"It's okay, you can. If you hold him, don't grab me. I'm afraid you will fall."

Qian Yu sat in the back seat and pursed his lips happily.Chen Minghui is like this. When he loves someone, he will put this person on the top of his heart, and he will put this person first in everything he thinks, does, and speaks.In the past, he was only deeply infatuated with his indomitable strength, and envied the toughness he always wanted but couldn't achieve.After being with him, I realized that one person can take another person so seriously. That kind of feeling is a drug that makes people sink, and I can't quit it even after trying it in this life.

Sitting on the back seat, Qian Yu hugged Chen Minghui's waist tightly, with an unpredictable look in his eyes, a look that Chen Minghui had never seen in Qian Yu's eyes at that time, and never thought it belonged to Qian Yu— —A deep, possessive desire so strong that it almost has color.

There were no customers in this restaurant. When Chen Minghui and Qian Yu came back, Zhou Wei was lying on the table doing homework, and Aunt Zhou wiped the tables one by one with a rag.

Seeing them coming back, the two mothers stepped forward to help with the things.

Chen Minghui listed tomorrow's menu to Aunt Zhou and said: "Tomorrow, I will make these few dishes. The quantity is more than ten or twenty boxes more than today. There are ten boxes ordered by the No. [-] Middle School in the city, and there are also those at the factory. You pretend it in advance, I just picked it up after school and delivered it."

Aunt Zhou nodded, "I see."

Chen Minghui glanced at his watch and said, "Aunt Zhou, then Xiaoyu and I have something to do, we're going back today, please take care of you and Zhou Wei in the shop, after 05:30, you guys should go too."

Aunt Zhou nodded in response.

After leaving the room, Qian Yu whispered, "What else can we do later?"

"The entrance exam will be in a few days. Don't you attach great importance to this entrance exam? It happens that you have nothing to do in the afternoon. I'll help you review your English when you get back. As long as your current grades don't lag behind in English, it's safe to say that being in the top five in the class is not a problem. .”

Qian Yu smiled shyly, "You are so optimistic about me."

"It's not optimistic. I can see all the hard work you put in. You are not stupid. Isn't it natural for you to improve your grades?"

Other children don't like to study, and play secretly when they have time.But Qian Yu studies when he has time, and studies if he has no time to steal time.These weekends, because it took a lot of time to accompany him to find a store and open a store, Qian Yu would study for an extra hour at night, and did not stop doing questions during breaks.Qian Yu, who is so serious, has a good brain, so he doesn't say that he is in the top five. Chen Minghui even thinks that if Qian Yu is lucky this time, he may be able to enter the top five in the whole grade.It's just that he didn't dare to tell Qian Yu that if something happened and he didn't pass the exam, wouldn't it make Qian Yu happy for nothing.

On the second day when the two went to school, the countdown on the study corner on the blackboard dropped by a few more days, and it was already more than halfway.Most students like them don't care much about the entrance exam. The atmosphere in the class has become dull and tense, and there is much less fighting between classes.

Teacher Chen, the teacher in charge, became more serious and handed out endless test papers.

Many students took advantage of the noon break to write more questions. Chen Minghui rode a bicycle and carried Qian Yu back and forth. The journey took only four to five minutes. However, even in such a short time, Qian Yu still took out the slips of written English words. all over the back.Chen Minghui locked the bicycle and saw Qian Yu put the note back in his pocket, feeling sorry for him working so hard.

"Xiaoyu, why don't you stay at school at noon tomorrow, and don't work so hard on yourself."

Qian Yu shook his head, "Aunt Zhou in the store can't keep busy by herself. If I don't come back, she gets busy and collects the wrong money. She has been busy for a few days. How can I study without money, and what can I eat meat?"

Chen Minghui smiled: "My Xiaoyu also knows how to make money to support his family."

Qian Yu snorted and ignored him.

There are not many people in the store, and one or two are eating. Aunt Zhou's lunch box has already been packed and placed in the back kitchen.

"Minghui, there are forty boxes in total, can you take them?"

"It's okay, it's bundled in the box and tied to the rear frame for easy access."

Recently, when Chen Minghui returned to Experimental High School, all the students had not left after school, and he didn't wait there specially. He ran to the guard room and knocked on the window twice, and the uncle guard poked his head out.

"Is something wrong?"

Chen Minghui didn't talk about it first, looked at the two people in the room, he handed in two boxes of lunch first, and said with a smile: "Uncle, we are from Huiyu Box, this is our business card, I invite you to eat these two boxes of lunch. "

The guard didn't answer and asked, "Do you want to go in?"

He is a student here, it is not easy to get in, he does not want to get in.

"No, it's like this. The students from your school ordered lunches from Huiyu, and they will come out to pick them up later. I have undelivered lunches from students from other schools. I'm afraid it will be delayed. Do you think this will work? I will Put the boxes of lunch in your guard room. Students come to your guard room to eat. After eating, throw the lunch box back to you. I will come to you to pick it up. As a thank you, I will bring two boxes of lunch to each of you every day. .”

The two looked at each other, and the man behind said: "How much do you sell for a box of lunch?"

"One meat and one vegetable, star anise."

The man cleared his throat, "Well, if you discount it, we can watch it for you."

Eight anise a day, 22 days without weekends, an increase of more than 20 in a month, which is half of their salary, the two of them get excited when they think about it, and they can't help but show a greedy look.

Chen Minghui sneered in his heart, but he couldn't see it on his face, he was still enthusiastic.

"I can't do that. I'm just a part-time job. I can't do anything with so much money." Chen Minghui said, "At most, I can add a bottle of soda to each of you. Let's put it this way, this condition is already the limit. I see, there are only ten students in your school ordering meals, and the profit they earn in a month is not as much as the two of you want. Our boss will definitely not agree. The part-time workers like me in the store can only pay this price for a month. Why don't the boss hire another worker, and then you can send three more. It's not worthwhile to give you this one."

Those two people were still greedy in their hearts, and they didn't want to give up just like that, and neither of them said anything.

Chen Minghui sneered, snatched the lunch box that the two were holding tightly in their hands, turned around and stood at the school gate waiting for the students to come out to pick it up.

The two guards saw that they didn't need to panic. This was a windfall, and if they ran away, they ran away. Just like the boy said, if the owner of the shop hires another person, they really won't get anything.The two of them just looked at Chen Minghui's young age, thought he was easy to handle, and took advantage of Joe, but they didn't expect him to run away.

The one who was the first to talk to him hurriedly said: "You are a young child, why are you so angry, everything can be negotiated."

Chen Minghui said: "Your requirements are too high, I can't do it, instead of wasting time, the students will come and get it by themselves."

As soon as the man swallowed it, he ran away when he saw that he was right again, and replied: "Okay, as you said, you can bring the lunch box to my room, the students should know who they are."

Chen Minghui nodded, "Yes, I wrote the name of the class."

"That's fine, you can bring them in, where are our two boxes?" Anyway, there is meat in the lunch box, and it is impossible to eat meat every meal at home. If this boy really brings them box lunches every day, they can have a meal I ate meat.At that time, if you don’t eat it yourself, it’s also good to take it home for the children to satisfy their cravings.

Chen Minghui immediately smiled again, he gave the guard two boxes of lunch and left.I didn't see the way the two of them opened the lunch box and devoured it hungrily after he left, and the ugly appearance of the students passing by almost drooling when they smelled the aroma of the box lunch.

A female student said: "Xiaomei, do you smell the fragrance, it seems to be meaty?" The girl took two deep breaths as she spoke.

The girl named Xiaomei is the girl who found Chen Minghui and Qian Yu for no reason yesterday.

At this moment, she pretended to be reserved, and nodded calmly among the female classmates who smelled the fragrance, "This smell is the smell of the Huiyu lunch box I told you about before. My dad took our family there for dinner last night. , I tasted it and it tasted pretty good, and saw his business card said delivery, so I ordered a few boxes at that time, knowing that you will also like it."

"Yeah, I like it, thank you Xiaomei."

A few people chatted and laughed and entered the guard room. Although the gate guard room had its windows and doors open, the fragrance in the room could not escape. It smelled even more fragrant when they walked in, making people eager to move.

"Uncle, is Huiyu's lunch box stored here?"

The two guards, who were too busy lowering their heads to eat, had no time to raise their heads, said vaguely, "Get it yourself."

Xiaomei has eaten it before, and knows how delicious it tastes, even if she carries it again, her taste buds will not be able to stand it long ago, and the hands that go to grab the lunch box still reveal eagerness.

Another guard saw a few female students and suddenly thought of the children at home. The wife and children at home have never eaten such a delicious food, not to mention that the lion head is made of pure meat. After eating, I have to take it home for the children to taste.

The doorman didn't know how much effort he had to control himself from eating. He found out his lunch box, smelled the aroma, ate up the box lunch he brought, and then poured the remaining half of Huiyu box lunch into his own. In the lunch box, I am going to take it home to satisfy my wife and children.

The other guard also asked for money. The one who saw Chou Chou's empty lunch box curled his lips, and said sourly: "You are such a man, and you want to take such a little thing home."

The old man said: "My family has a lot of children, and my wife doesn't have a job. It's not as good as your family. You can eat meat every now and then to improve the food. It's hard to think of taking it home to satisfy the children's hunger."

The man swallowed silently, he said this himself, but none of his colleagues knew that what he said was a lie.How many of these security rooms are in good condition, their wages are half of the workers, the reason why they do this is because they can't work as coolies, and they can't find a job as a worker, so they choose to do this.The others are okay, they don't talk much, but he likes to brag, always saying that he eats meat at home.Sometimes when I come to work in the morning, my mouth is still greasy, and I will eat meat when I ask, and I will talk to myself if I don’t ask.

Usually, several people would bear him, but today the old man couldn't hold back, and he was also angry.This kind of person doesn't know how to feel sorry for the mother-in-law and children at home, but he knows to take care of himself, he is full when he eats outside, and the children at home can cry without saying anything about meat.

Afterwards, Chen Minghui followed suit with several other schools and factories, and at the last factory he arrived at, someone was already waiting at the door.

Chen Minghui got off the bicycle and said with a smile: "Wait in a hurry."

It's September now, and the weather has cooled down, but Chen Minghui is still sweating profusely. The workers laughed because they were so anxious to see him, "It's okay, it's been such a long lunch break, don't worry."

Chen Minghui would not take the customer's kind words seriously, he apologized with a good attitude, and quickly found out the lunch box and handed it to several people.He brought out more than ten boxes today, and now there are still ten left to drink. He said: "If you have no lunch, you can help introduce one. Next time you come to buy boxed lunches, you will get a five-cent discount."

Although five cents is not much, you can still buy a piece of candy for the children to eat. Anyway, they are all free. The few people looked at each other and agreed tacitly.

When the last customer took away the lunch box, Chen Minghui randomly took out a box from the rest and squatted on the ground to eat.

It's twelve o'clock now, and there's no time for him to eat when he returns to the store after eating, so why not hurry up and eat now.

Chen Minghui eats a lot, one box is not enough, he eats two boxes to be full.

A woman took a lunch box and went back, and saw her colleague lying on the table again feeling uncomfortable, and the boxed lunches from home were spread out on the side.

"I'm still embarrassed. Have you eaten? You can't go on like this. Look at how much you've lost weight recently, and your eyes are protruding." The woman said: "Don't talk about adults, the child can't stand it first. It's not nutritious, child How to grow in your stomach."

The little woman raised her head, with tears streaming down her face, "I can't help it. This is the first child of my mother-in-law's grandchildren, and I pay special attention to it. Since I was pregnant, my mother-in-law often cooks meat for me, but she doesn't give it to her." My sons also gave it to me, but I just couldn’t eat it. I felt sick when I smelled the meat, let alone eating it. There was really no way. My mother-in-law didn’t put meat in the dishes later, and there was plenty of oil and water. But when I was not pregnant, I was hungry for oil and water, and now I can’t eat oil and water. I feel sick when I eat it. I don’t eat it anyway. My mother-in-law recently made light oil for me, but I still eat it. No more."

The woman sighed, "We women have to suffer for having a baby, and there is nothing we can do about it." She sat down and opened the lunch box she had just brought back and ate.

The little daughter-in-law who was lying back again suddenly smelled the fragrance of vegetables, her nose moved subconsciously, she raised her head to look in the direction of the aroma, and her throat moved.

"Sister Ma, did you bring your own box lunch?" the little woman asked.

Sister Ma was enjoying her meal, and said without raising her head when she heard the words: "No, I ordered a box lunch from Huiyu's house."

"Huiyu box lunch? Where is its home?"

Sister Ma heard something wrong, so she raised her head, "You don't want to eat, do you?"

Although the little woman was ashamed, she nodded in shame when she thought that she hadn't been able to eat for a long time and finally had an appetite today.

Sister Ma smiled cheerfully, "This is a good thing, come on, you should try mine first, and buy it after making sure it tastes good. The box lunch seller is waiting outside, don't rush to buy it, don't buy it back, you won't eat it anymore , eight cents, it can add more meat to half a catty."

"Thank you, Sister Ma." The little woman didn't dislike what Sister Ma had eaten, she picked up the chopsticks and started eating, and she ate the meat first.I don't know why, he doesn't eat the meat made by his mother-in-law, it's very fishy, ​​but this Huiyu lunch box makes him want to eat it just by looking at it.

Sister Ma thought that the little woman was just greedy, and she had to cover her mouth to swallow after taking a bite.

Unexpectedly, the little woman's next move almost made Sister Ma's eyes pop out of the window, and she saw her eating mouthful after mouthful, and what she ate was all meat.It tastes delicious, the tip of the nose smells like meat, and the person in front of me ate it with big mouthfuls, and Sister Ma swallowed greedily.Then she realized something was wrong, this wasn't her lunch box, why did she just look at it.With such a quick effort, one-third of the meat and vegetables in the lunch box were gone.Although her family's conditions are good, she can't eat meat every day. Sister Ma was in a hurry and had to cough twice to remind the little lady.

The little woman just woke up as if she had just woken up from a dream, her whole face flushed, and she hurriedly took out a dollar and sixty cents from her pocket, and gave the ticket to Sister Ma.

"Give me this box. Sister Ma, take this money and buy a new box. Bring me another box. I'll eat it at home at night."

Sister Ma knows that pregnant women are like this. She is so hungry that she can't eat anything, and she can cry.She came from here, so she didn't bother with the little woman, so she took the money and went out to buy lunch.
