Chapter 17 Section 3

Call Malatang in the afternoon and ask her to have dinner with her in the evening.After get off work, I waited until Linda was gone before I dared to leave.I went to see my elder sister first, bought her some seasonal vegetables, chatted with her, cooked the porridge, and fried two dishes of green vegetables. Seeing that the time was coming soon, I wanted to say goodbye, but the elder sister was very interested in talking and kept talking Sitting at the bar, watching me cook, chatting with me, and even jokingly said that he wanted to learn cooking from me. The elder sister’s parents and relatives are thousands of miles away. When she is healthy, she has a halo of work, which makes people dare not underestimate her. But she looks very lonely and lonely when she is sick. I made up my mind and simply called Mala Tang Called to the eldest sister's house, made two more dishes, three women, four dishes, and drank porridge together.

After Malatang entered, he kicked off his high-heeled shoes, and inspected the house like a leader, tsk-tsk as he walked, "The capitalist's corrupt and degenerate life!" The eldest sister feigned anger: "When I only sleep three or four hours a day for a month, what are you doing? All I have is obtained by the labor of my hands." Mala Tang gave me a frightened expression, blinked her eyes and asked, "Why are people vying to become a proletarian now? I'm afraid people will say she is rich." "Because the society hates the rich, and you and I happen to be two of them, the eldest sister is afraid that we will blackmail her, blackmail her, and use her, and then slander her." I replied solemnly.

The eldest sister said "bah", looked at Malatang with a smile and said, "Who is the proletariat, who is the bourgeoisie, who should hate whom, it is still uncertain." Malatang laughed, put his arms around the elder sister's shoulders and said, "I only hate her beauty. Eldest sister, your skin is really well maintained. Which beauty salon will treat you?" As long as she is a woman, she can't resist compliments from other people, let alone a compliment from a beautiful woman. The elder sister was quite happy, and talked to us about her beautician with a smile.

I was moved in my heart, Malatang has always been arrogant, if it wasn't for me, she would never take the initiative to please a stranger, she made a "thank you" gesture to her, she was stunned, smiled and lowered her head. Amidst the laughter and cursing, the temperature of the room rose immediately, and the city lights under the large floor-to-ceiling windows showed that he was no longer alone.The eldest sister seemed to have no reaction, but when she sent us away at night, after saying "goodbye", she said "thank you" softly to me. When we walked out of the eldest sister's building, Malatang looked up at the towering building.The bright and dark windows are like stars blooming in the dark night.In this city, no real starlight can be seen, but countless such starlight has been added.

"Manman, don't you think it's strange? If a man owns such a house in such a location in Beijing, let alone his thirties, even if he is in his forties, he will be called a diamond man, but why the same woman Became a disaster?" Malatang's expression was blurred and confused, even faintly sad.This fake literary young woman once again used other people's drama to vent her depression.I took her arm and dragged her forward, "If you see Eldest Sister swearing in the office, you will know that a disaster is a disaster, but it is definitely not Eldest Sister's disaster. In fact, a blind date is not necessarily that bad, at least If you think of it as meeting customers and talking about business! When we were young, our parents coaxed us and made us happy. When we grow up, it’s our turn to coax them and make them happy. Besides, even if we don’t coax them, it’s okay. Make yourself happy! If you go once, you only need to suffer for two hours, and you can shut their mouths. If you don’t go, their nagging will ravage us for at least twenty hours.”

Malatang leaned over my shoulder and smiled, "As expected of an accountant, the figures are more clear." He still didn't let up in his words, but his tone was not as absolute as before. ~~~~~~~~ The past few days have been uneventful, and my only trouble is printing invoices. There are endless piles of invoices, as high as mountains and as many as seas.All three fingers of my left hand were swollen because of constantly rubbing and flipping the paper. As long as it came into contact with harder paper, it would sting reflexively. When Young and I had dinner together, he secretly advised me, "Occasionally, you can be negative at work, and you know it's Linda...so there's no need to take it so seriously."

I picked up a chopstick of bean sprouts, put it in my mouth, and said with a smile: "It's not a bad thing to take this opportunity to practice counting invoices. When I count money now, I can pass three bills at a time." Seeing that I didn't understand, Young had no choice but to give up, but Malatang quit, wishing to rush into MG immediately, drag Linda out and parade in the street, it would be best to dip in the pig cage at the end.I can only beg her, "Grandma, working in the company, these things are always unavoidable, if you have to hit the door every time, the enemy is not dead, we are exhausted first. Who said that this is a cruel The savage jungle world? I think if you can’t bear this thing, you can find a meal ticket as soon as possible and become a housewife.”

The eldest sister stood aside, holding a glass of wine, and said leisurely: "Wrong! These days, do you think housewives don't need to fight bravely? A marriage certificate can't guarantee anything, you are a little stupid, little three, little four, little Five will lay you off soon, and if you fail, you won't even have severance pay." I covered my mouth and laughed, Malatang looked at me, looked at the elder sister, couldn't be relieved, but lost her temper, and said to the elder sister: "It is said that you two are not masters and apprentices, but you have a virtue! Say you two are masters and apprentices, apprentices Being bullied like this, the master didn't respond at all."

The eldest sister was surprised: "Who said I didn't respond? Didn't I invite her to eat chicken feet with pickled peppers? Keep your shape!" When I was in the same company with my eldest sister, I never found her so humorous.I almost went under the chair laughing, but when I put my hand on the bar, I let out a wail.Malatang hurriedly supported me, held it back for a long time, but couldn't hold it back, and laughed, "Tomorrow I will invite you to eat pork knuckle with soybeans." After coming out of the bar, Mala Tang beat him first.Seeing her leave, the eldest sister suppressed her smile, and said to me solemnly: "My name, Lin Qing, has some weight in Beijing's financial circles, but you can't even lower yourself to a small one. Don't say that you once It's my subordinate."

I nodded repeatedly, assuring that I would never let anyone know about my relationship with her. The elder sister was an irony, but I didn't expect that I would be so obedient and glared at me. The taxi leaves.
