Chapter 9 Day 3
Chapter 9 Day 3
Liang Xiu greeted Zhan Chong, and then asked very politely: "What did you buy?"
Zhan Chong was quiet for a while, and said, "Beef jerky."
The photographer immediately pointed the camera at Liang Xiu's shopping bag, and there were a few small packets of beef jerky in it.This kind of beef jerky is already expensive, and the little money given out by the program team is enough to buy these packs.
"Are these your dinner? Maybe not enough." Liang Xiu smiled, thinking, Zhan Chong's taste has been the same for ten years, and he still likes to eat this now.
"It's okay." Zhan Chong replied briefly, without turning his head to look at Liang Xiu during the process.
Just like that, the two of them looked away and refused to meet each other, always feeling a faint awkward atmosphere lingering between them.
Fortunately, after a while, other people came back one after another, and it gradually became lively. Everyone was surprised by Zhan Chong's love for beef jerky. After a long row, they began to prepare dinner.
Of course, Liang Xiu was in charge of cooking, Zhou Yilin and Chen Zijing helped him, Su An was making tea for everyone, and when they were busy, Zhan Chong was outside, secretly looking at Liang Xiu through the window.
Wearing an apron, he looks very homely, very skilled with the knife, and the way he cooks is very unhurried, very calm, as always.
He was so good-looking, always so good-looking...
The moment Liang Xiu turned his head inadvertently, Zhan Chong quickly looked away and looked elsewhere.
Liang Xiu still had that burning feeling, he ignored it as much as possible, and focused on cooking, and soon, amidst the exclamation of everyone, he made a large table of food, all of which were homemade. The dishes are delicious, but they are delicious in color, fragrance and taste.
After Liang Xiu was done, he invited everyone to come and eat together. Zhan Chong gnawed on his beef jerky but did not move, so Zhou Yilin called him over and enthusiastically asked him to eat together.
Zhan Chong turned his head away and said, "Didn't you say you bought vegetables and cooked by yourself? I have beef jerky here."
"What, just talking like that, we came out together, of course we have to take care of each other, Brother Zhan Chong, come on, don't be shy."
Zhan Chong was still sitting on the sofa, Liang Xiu came out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "It's okay, I've done a lot, I can't finish it all by myself, let's all go together."
Zhan Chong was stunned, and didn't know what to think, but he stepped forward obediently, but his face was awkward, as if he came to eat, and he gave Liang Xiu a great deal of face.
Seeing this, Su An smiled and said gracefully: "Xiao Chong, you are such a cute kid. He is obviously very hot inside, why do you always pretend to be cool?"
Zhan Chong felt goosebumps when he heard it, and when he sat down, he wanted to get up in a hurry. He felt that this description really made him feel uncomfortable all over. He was unhappy, but the person who said he was Su An.Su An's face is full of dignity and elegance. Even Zhan Chong, who has always been outspoken, is somewhat unable to refute such a charming woman.
Several people present laughed and agreed with Su An's words.
Zhan Chong frowned, and said, "Sister Su An, I'm almost thirty."
Su An covered her mouth and smiled, "He's still a very cute child. Don't keep such a straight face and make yourself feel awkward. It's really cute and fun. This... How do you describe this? Isn't there such a word on the Internet? ..."
"Tsundere! Haha." Zhou Yilin said suddenly.
Everyone laughed, their faces were full of happy expressions, and no matter how dark Zhan Chong rolled his eyes, Zhou Yilin and Chen Zijing kept repeating the words "super cute" and "super tsundere".
Zhan Chong was really furious. Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly saw Liang Xiu who was facing him smiling too. He lowered his head, his long eyelashes covered those autumn-like eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, shaking slightly. Nodding his head, he smiled lightly.
It wasn't the professional smile he had been pretending before, it seemed to touch some interesting past event in his memory, he smiled happily.
Zhan Chong stared blankly at the smiling face, and instantly understood what Liang Xiu was thinking of.
He also remembered what happened that day.
————————————————————
Zhan Chong has no money.
The money from selling watches lasted for a few more days, and then was completely used up. Yang Zhengxuan asked Zhan Chong to go to Tianqiao to sell discs together again, but Zhan Chong still stubbornly refused to agree.
Yang Zhengxuan was really pissed off by Zhan Chong. The bar owner asked him to try singing. He thought the sound was bad, so he went out to perform on the street to earn a little money. He still had a stinky face, and no one passing by wanted to give him money. .He is really the kind of rich young master who doesn't know what to do, and there is no way to let him go out to sell pornographic films. Yang Zhengxuan didn't dislike him because he can't solicit customers. He just refused to go.
Yang Zhengxuan was also too poor to eat white steamed buns, but the money he sold every day was enough for two people to eat, and he could add a bag of pickles, so he was able to live on.But he didn't eat the pickled vegetables for a few days, and he met the city management again. He didn't have time to close the stall by himself, and half of the goods were lost. The loss was heavy.
When he came back, Yang Zhengxuan complained that Zhan Chong refused to help, and when they were poor and angry, the two began to starve.Break open a steamed bun, half of it for one person, and eat for a day.
Zhan Chong's birthday is still a few months away. Although he is not small anymore, he seems to have not stopped growing. He has been feeling hungry recently, and he can't get enough to eat. It would be crazy not to feed him at this time .
On this day, Yang Zhengxuan went out to look for a job in a bar again, and Zhan Chong rummaged through boxes and cabinets alone at home, hoping to find some valuable things that he could sell for money.
The Jade Guanyin hanging around his neck can be exchanged for some money. Yang Zhengxuan has been coveting it for a long time and wants to sell it every day, but Zhan Chong is reluctant.
This thing is not particularly valuable to Zhan Chong. He begged for it when he was sick when he was a child. After wearing it for ten years, Zhan Chong missed the old days and always wore it.
He was young at that time, and the family didn't want to use too extravagant things for him, so they asked for such a small Guanyin, which was not much bigger than the nail cap, and it was not expensive, about [-] yuan.
Now it is estimated that it has risen a bit, but if it is to be sold, it is not bad if the price is overwhelmed by [-]%. The recipient is not a charity, and his heart is dark.
After wearing this thing for ten years, Zhan Chong got used to it, but he just couldn't bear it, and he would never sell it unless it was absolutely necessary.
Zhan Chong continued to search, and found a fifty-cent coin from a jacket pocket after searching for a long time.
If he was in the past, let alone fifty cents, he would not think it was too much even fifty thousand and one million five hundred thousand in front of him, but now he is holding the fifty cents as if he has found a treasure, and is very happy.
Zhan Chong quickly went downstairs to the canteen not far away. The snack stalls in the canteen were placed on the low table at the door, and there were all kinds of delicious food.
"Handsome guy, what are you buying?" the boss asked kindly.
"That, let me take a look first." Zhan Chong grabbed his fifty cents.
There is an elementary school near the canteen. At this time, after school, many elementary school students came to buy food one after another.
Primary school students don’t have enough pocket money, so they squat here for half a day every day to choose a pack of snacks they want most.
Zhan Chong was squatting with this group of elementary school students, and his figure seemed especially huge among the group of children.He looked at these snacks with a face full of confusion. After hesitating for a long time, he finally chose a pack of spicy strips marked with the flavor of five-spice beef. He solemnly handed his fifty cents to the boss and picked up the pack of spicy strips.
He couldn't wait to stand up, and immediately tore open the packaging bag and took a bite.
Bah, it's far worse than beef jerky!
But it's better to pad the stomach first, Zhan Chong didn't have time to care about the taste, so he stuffed the root into his mouth again.
"Uncle, you're blocking me." An elementary school student next to Zhan Chong pushed Zhan Chong who was squatting away with a bit of disgust, then took out a huge sum of five yuan, bought several packs of spicy noodles, and distributed them to the students next to him. .Then he continued to glance at Zhan Chong with disgust, with "Uncle, you are so poor" written all over his face.
"It's amazing to be rich..." Zhan Chong turned around humming, and suddenly saw Liang Xiu standing behind him.
Liang Xiu lowered his head and was holding back his laughter. He was holding back very hard, his shoulders kept shaking, and he let out some laughter from time to time.He was really going to be teased to death by Zhan Chong, he couldn't figure out how this kid could be so funny.
He just came home from get off work and was about to make dinner and found that the salt was gone, so he went downstairs to the commissary to buy it.
He saw Zhan Chong squatting with a group of elementary school students struggling to choose snacks from a long distance away. He knew that Zhan Chong had no money recently, but he didn't expect Zhan Chong to be so poor that he was despised by the elementary school students.And the appearance of him eating spicy strips is really funny, his handsome facial features are all wrinkled together, which is very funny.
Liang Xiu was afraid that he would get angry and didn't want to laugh at him, but he really couldn't hold it back, so he endured this, his shoulders kept shaking.
Zhan Chong's face darkened, and he just stood there staring at Liang Xiu without making a sound, and kept stuffing the spicy strips into his mouth angrily.
Liang Xiu smiled enough and looked up, and saw that Zhan Chong had turned around and was staring at him angrily.
Although it was a stare, the eyes were not imposing. Even the tiger who had been hungry for many days had turned into a kitten. Zhan Chong was obviously ashamed and angry, and he stuffed the spicy strips into his mouth angrily and anxiously.
"Sorry, I'm here to buy a packet of salt, what a coincidence." Liang Xiu took the initiative to greet Zhan Chong.
Zhan Chong replied coldly: "Yes."
After talking about Zhan Chong, he was about to leave. When Liang Xiu was buying salt, he asked the boss for a bottle of juice. He chased after him and handed it to Zhan Chong as an apology for laughing at him just now: "If you are hungry, drink something sweet first, so as not to cause hypoglycemia. Yes. I have food at home, and I'm about to make it, why don't we have some food together?"
Zhan Chong stopped in his tracks and glanced at Liang Xiu, a little puzzled.
Why is this person so careful?They have nothing to do with each other, they are just tenants they met by chance, after three months the house expires, Zhan Chong doesn't know if he can continue to live here, why is he being nice to himself?What are you drawing?
