Chapter 4 Lamb Ribs and Carrot Soup

Qin Zhi developed a high fever after being drenched in the rain, and was put on an intravenous drip that night.Guan Shuyi's family ate lamb ribs that night. Lao Guan’s family eats pork ribs without any ingredients, they are all gurgling, red and appetizing pieces of meat. "This one is good. There are fat and thin ones. Lao Guan, you can eat this one." Mama Guan put a piece of mutton chop into Dad Guan's bowl. Dad Guan only likes meat, not fragile bones.Mama Guan is responsible for eating the whole family's crispy bones. "Mom, give me two hundred yuan." Guan Shuyi's younger brother Guan Ningjun stretched out his greasy hand.

Mama Guan picked up the minced meat from the bone with a toothpick, and said without looking up: "No, I just gave 200 last week." Guan Ningjun immediately yelled: "Mom, I'm going to college, and I need social activities!" "What's the matter, what's the matter with you going to college? It doesn't cost money to go to college? You grew golden hairs when you went to college, and you don't recognize our mother here? Your sister doesn't even spend two hundred a week to go to college!" "Our classmates make two hundred a day!" "Your classmate's mother prints money, and your father collects junk! That's different!"

Guan's father coughed, and said to Guan's mother with a straight face: "Material recycling company." "Ah, yes, your father didn't even spend 200 a day when he started the company. That's right...Old Guan, you haven't paid your money today!" Guan's father pointed at the jacket expressionlessly, while Guan's mother washed her hands and walked over to take out a pile of money from the inner pocket of her husband's clothes, including large bills and piles of change notes.Mama Guan counted the big money and turned to Papa Guan: "Two bills are missing."

"I lost." Father Guan said indifferently. Mother Guan nodded, confiscated all of Xiao Zhang's money, and filled in two big banknotes.Lao Guan hangs around outside, so it must be a face-saving, Kakaxin big bill, this money is usually not allowed to be spent by Guan's mother, it is just for show, if it is spent, it must be reported. "Who did you lose to?" Mama Guan asked in a low voice. Father Guan picked up the tea and took a sip of the tea, and replied, "Thank you." Mama Guan put away her husband's coat and started tidying up with her daughter. While tidying up, she began to gossip over and over again.While dealing with it, Guan Shuyi winked at her younger brother.

"I went to do my hair yesterday, and a woman from the provincial capital came by. Xiaoyi, do you know which hair salon it is, it's Akun's." Mama Guan lowered her head and babbled. Guan Shuyi quietly touched two banknotes from her wallet and handed them to her younger brother.Her brother kissed her, took his clothes, opened the door and left. "I know, you're the one who loves it the most. Akun called you sister. He also called me sister. You said this generation is chaotic." Guan Shuyi complained helplessly leaning against the kitchen door. Mama Guan continued to say while washing the dishes: "The eldest sister from the provincial capital is so proud. What's the matter with each provincial capital? She is so tired from work, so she wants to buy clothes in a small town or something. Pooh... no... From the provincial capital, guess what I did afterwards, I almost pissed her off, and Akun said that what I did would relieve her anger."

"How do you do it?" "First I envied her. It's not easy to praise her. Then I asked her how big your house is!" Guan Shuyi helplessly began to knock on the door. Mama Guan proudly untied her apron, hung it up chicly, and said with her hands on her hips, "She said she had worked so hard to buy 70 square meters, so I told her. More than one hundred square meters! What’s wrong with the city, what’s wrong with the provincial capital, isn’t it bigger? It’s like a birdcage…” Guan Shuyi helplessly looked down at the expressionless father who began to lie on the sofa and switch channels one by one. The father raised his head and winked at him.

Guan's mother picked up the phone and started calling: "Old Xie, are you free? Come on... Let's call a few guys to play mahjong together, OK, I'll go right away." Guan Shuyi was looking for her slippers all over the place. She was wearing her father's slippers, and his father was walking around with his bare feet. "Mom, where are my slippers?" she asked. "Let's eat it instead of an apple." Guan's mother grinned sarcastically, Guan Shuyi stuck out her tongue, and his father was having fun there. "Guan Shuyi, go downstairs and pay your grandma Qin. Your grandma Qin has become rich recently. His grandson broke his leg, and he paid fifty thousand, fifty thousand!"

Guan's mother gritted her back molars and said fiercely, Guan Shuyi looked at her mother with a piercing spirit, she watched her finish changing clothes, turned her head and gave Guan's father a sweet smile, and said, "Old Guan, I will avenge you I'm going." Then he turned around and yelled at the woman: "You still don't want the slippers back! I made that up for you, and it's not sold outside! How much money do you want for your brother?" Guan Shuyi helplessly stretched out two fingers: "Two hundred." Guan's mother shook her head helplessly and continued nagging: "It is said that raising a child to prevent old age, that little bastard, I will pay for the extra birth fee when I was born, and I will pay for the medical expenses when I fight at school, and make up exams..."

Guan Shuyi ran away in a hurry, and went downstairs to the fruit shop and grocery store... "Grandma Qin." Guan Shuyi greeted Grandma Qin who was looking at the door. When Grandma Qin saw her, she seemed to see a savior: "Xiaoyi, your mother told me to go to mahjong. Qin Zhi has a fever. The doctor said it was nothing, but I Depends on the liquid." The old lady just likes to play mahjong.Guan Shuyi patted her chest and said, "It's okay, leave it to me, and I will pull out the needle." Grandma Qin was overjoyed, pointed at the apple stand and said, "Eat any apple."

Guan Shuyi was also overjoyed. Qin Zhi was reading a book with one hand, and was carrying water with the other.He has a low-grade fever, and he has been unlucky recently. He first broke his leg and then got a fever in the rain.He was helpless listening to the conversation outside. Grandma Qin was thoroughly criticizing the current human condition, and only 50,000 yuan was exchanged for one leg. The light rain that stopped for a while started to fall again, and Grandma Qin left.Guan Shuyi bit an apple and clicked it!Click!He entered the back room with a crisp sound. "I can pull out needles myself." Qin Zhi raised his head and said to Guan Shuyi.

Guan Shuyi smiled, dragged a chair to look at the stall, and replied, "I'll go home when I've had enough." Qin Zhi lowered his head and said nothing. He originally wanted to finish this book that he wanted to finish a long time ago, but he was too busy and didn't have time.But tonight is obviously not a good time, because the sound around me is too scary.He watched the woman eat five big apples one by one, and his gums began to pantothenic. Guan Shuyi swept away the apple core contentedly, took a bench and sat opposite Qin Zhi, and looked at his liquid: "The dripping is too slow." "Too fast is not good for the heart. If you have something to do, go back." Qin Zhi advised her to leave again. Guan Shuyi ignored him, and she began to answer the phone: "Oh, Shan Nini, it's actually Nai (you)? Did you ask my sister to borrow money in the middle of the night? Did you borrow money? Damn...not even!" Qin Zhi bowed his head and began to laugh. "What, why are you crying when your mother is married? How long has your father been married? You know... Bah, why does your grandma take care of your family's affairs? They didn't even pay for child support back then..." The dripping rain brought some cold air, Qin Zhi put down his book, closed his eyes and rested his mind.Guan Shuyi pulled a blanket from the bedroom to cover him up. She had a phone in her ear, and while helping to sell things, she unexpectedly... started doing housework. "What... I am at least an upper-middle-class look, with a big and round butt!" Qin Zhi pretended to sleep on his side with the corner of his mouth pulled upwards. "Mom Shenshen, this kind of sanitary napkin is not good. You need to buy pure cotton ones. Pure cotton ones are better... OK, I will keep the account for you if you don't bring any money. Where is the account book? Shuan Zhuzhu, where is your account book?" ?" Guan Shuyi turned her head and asked Qin Zhi. Qin Zhi was stunned for a moment, Shuan Zhuzhu, who is it called? "Hey, here it is. I found it, I found it, you can sleep." Qin Zhi stared and continued to think about the question of "Shuan Zhuzhu", but Guan Shuyi put down the phone and began to panic in the kitchen. After a meal, she brought out a bowl of soup and put it next to Qin Zhi, and then pulled out the phone neatly. needles.Qin Zhi raised his head, unconsciously, the liquid was lost. "It's a bit hot. A cold is a dark fire. The radish soup is smooth. I put white pepper for you to sweat. Shuan Zhuzhu, I'm going home. I'll help you pull the roller shutter. You drink the soup and go to sleep. Grandma Qin and my mother won't be back until tomorrow morning." Guan Shuyi stood up, tidied up the shop, pulled down the shutter, and left... Qin Zhi looked at the rolling shutter, and there was another bang from outside the door. Guan Shuyi walked in and picked up the slippers on the table: "Shuan Zhuzhu, I forgot to take the shoes. You drank the soup. Remember!" He left in a hurry. Who is this Shuan Zhuzhu?Qin Zhi thought about it for a long time in a daze. The feeling of pretending not to care when he first returned to his hometown, but actually feeling very lonely, was much better.Strange? The phone buzzed and bounced on the bed, and the screen kept flickering. Qin Zhi picked it up, checked it, clicked on the display, and then connected it. "Is there something wrong?" "Well, Lang Ning is here, and she left after crying until just now. She said that she was a friend of everyone. She believes that you must be innocent. She is willing to pay the money for you. However, her family said that her elbow was turned outward. . She was stressed out." "Isn't she comforted?" "I'm afraid that person is very busy recently. You think they all look like you, twenty-four filial boyfriend." "...Sarcasm me?" "No, she asked me to ask you, where is her passport to go abroad?" "In the blue box in the lower drawer of her bedroom wardrobe." "...you really know?" "Yeah. I know." Lawyer Chen hesitated for a while, then asked, "Do you still like her?" Qin Zhi looked at the bowl of radish soup. Except for grandma, it was the first time in his life that someone stewed the soup for him. He picked it up and took a sip. Ugh, so salty.But, it's also warm... "What are you doing?" Attorney Chen asked again. "Oh, drink soup, do you think I like Lang Ning?" "Sorry, I crossed the line." "It's okay. It's not all her fault that I broke up with Lang Ning. It's been several years, but I still have feelings. You know her, she's very strong in her mouth, and she's a good person. She just has no opinion." Lawyer Chen laughed a few times and said, "Okay, I've known you for so many years, and I've forgotten your old problems. You don't speak ill of people. So, where did the 300,000 yuan go?" Qin Zhi leaned on the pillow, tugged at the corners of his mouth helplessly, and replied: "It's used for work. Although I quit now, I can't betray him. After all, you will go to jail if you betray the company's information. You take my money. Make it up. Do things from beginning to end." "I've never seen you like this, cheating on people and money. Qin Zhi, I really don't know if you're stupid or pretending to be stupid. It's over, I'll help you settle the bill tomorrow. Now you've earned your reputation of corruption." gone." Qin Zhi smiled, and said indifferently: "The value of that contract is naturally determined in the industry. Three months later, if Lang wants to buy it back, it will not be 300,000 yuan. Stupid? I don't know who is stupid It's done, if you have something to do, you can help me, don't call me if you have nothing to do." Lawyer Chen still wanted to talk, but Qin Zhi didn't want to hear it anyway.He has worked hard at Lang's until now, and everything is for Lang Ning. Until now, he can't hate that woman, because she is the only one in this world who said to herself, "I will be your eyes, and I will see the world for you." All the colors..." people. It was she who looked at herself crying and said, "I'm sorry, I know what I say is wrong, but you know, I love children, and I can't give birth to a child whose world is only black and white." She was always so romantic and so cute.Her innocent little appearance, which pretended to be innocent, once filled Qin Zhi's entire world. He, Qin Zhi, is not a saint, and he followed her way. He really wanted a woman, a woman who would give him warmth and full color. He once thought that Lang Ning was irreplaceable, but now it seems...just asking for too Taller.Lang Ning wants to match the prince, he is a fake human being at best, Qin Zhi sat up, opened the curtains, and looked at the street lights in the neighborhood outside. The smell of radish soup slowly drifted into his nose, and the sound of mahjong rubbing in the window entered his ears. That night, Qin Zhi couldn't fall asleep.He was in pain, an indescribable pain was spreading from his heart to every cell.Love or hurt have become superficial words, the mask from childhood to adulthood was peeled off bloody by Lang Ning's indifference. no cure...
