Along the way, Lin Ke'er was a little absent-minded. She is a kind person. Although she was afraid of Xiao Chen at school, she was secretly grateful to Xiao Chen. This was an ambivalence. Seeing Xiao Chen being able to Lin Ke'er was really happy for him when he cheered up and was self-reliant.
But who is the fat sister next to him? Tang Tang was not well-known in the morning market in the past, Xiao Chen's fritters were sold in recent days, and the stalls of Lin Ke'er's house were relatively far away, so it was normal not to know Tang Tang.
"What are you thinking, girl? Are you out of your wits? Are you talking about friends at school?" Lin's mother stood there in a daze when she saw Lin Ke'er arrived. Angrily said.
"Ah... no... no..." Lin Ke'er was startled, came back to her senses, and quickly started to help her mother set up the stall.
"Don't mess with me, my mother still expects you to transfer back a wealthy son-in-law in the future!" Mother Lin snorted: "Did you hear that?"
"I... I see..." Lin Ke'er lowered her head, bit the corner of her mouth, thinking of Xiao Chen... She promised him that he could pursue her, but is he a wealthy son-in-law? Maybe it used to be... now...
However, Lin Ke'er suddenly realized that she seemed to be thinking too much. These are all things that have not been written off. What are you thinking about these messy things? Besides, that was just my own wishful thinking, maybe Xiao Chen chased him just for fun, right
Sighing, Lin Keer began to help her mother choose spinach, and Lin Keer's father, Lin Dongliang, also began to heat up the beef soup...
Xiao Chen's fried dough sticks are very popular, which also drives the sales of tofu nao. In the past, there was only soy milk, and some people might not buy it. Now that there is tofu nao, those who don't like to drink soy milk have other choices.
It's just that Xiao Chen became even busier. He was frying deep-fried dough sticks and candied fruit here, and he was helping Tang Tang make tofu nao there. He didn't even have time to look up. He was busy all morning with his head down.
However, Xiao Chen felt that he was very fulfilled. Although he might not make a lot of money, at least he was working hard to make money. Xiao Chen felt that these days were probably the most fulfilling he had lived in the past eighteen years.
Today, the second middle school exam, and the first middle school exam, Lin Ke'er can go to school a little later, until after nine o'clock, she still didn't eat breakfast.
When there were a little less guests, she suddenly raised her head, pursed her lips, and said to Mother Lin: "Mom... I'm hungry, I want to have some breakfast..."
"Eat breakfast? What breakfast? Isn't there pan noodles here? I want to cook a bowl for myself!" Mother Lin frowned.
"I want... to eat something else..." Lin Ke'er lowered her head, not daring to look at her mother, and whispered.
"Other things? I have them at home, so why don't you go eat other things? Do you think your family is rich? Why are you a rich second generation?" Lin's mother immediately turned down when she heard Lin Ke'er's words.
"Okay, old lady, Ke'er can eat as much as he wants, and he doesn't have much money." Lin Dongliang took out ten yuan from the money box, thought for a while, took out another five yuan, and handed them to Lin Keer. , said: "Go, girl, it happens that you are not too busy right now."
"You're the one who spoils the child!" Lin's mother was a little unhappy when she saw Lin Dongliang give Lin Ke'er money, but she didn't stop her.
Lin Keer knew her family's situation. Although it wasn't the worst in Zaoshijie, it was definitely not rich. A double unemployed family lived on the meager income of Zaoshijie. Fortunately, Lin Keer's grades were very good. Every time she takes an exam, she can get a scholarship of at least 1,000 yuan, otherwise, she might really drop out of school.
However, in Lin Keer's view, no matter how difficult his family is, it is not as difficult as Xiao Chen's. He was kicked out of the family and has no source of income. However, if possible, he, a high-ranking young master, would not come to the morning market to sell breakfast. How uncomfortable does this make a young master who wants to save face
After hesitating for a while, Lin Ke'er picked up the baseball cap she usually wears when cooking noodles and put it on her head. She didn't want Xiao Chen to see her, she was afraid of hurting Xiao Chen's self-esteem.
In the past, he was so arrogant, but now that he has fallen to this point, he obviously doesn't want his acquaintances to see him, right? Lin Keer just wanted to help him silently.
Lin Ke'er tightly clutched the fifteen yuan, afraid of losing it. She usually couldn't spend much money at school. She had a bus card for school and a meal card for the cafeteria, so she didn't carry any money.
When she came near Xiao Chen's breakfast stall and saw the deep-fried dough sticks piled up on the bed, she felt sore and sympathetic. In her opinion, Xiao Chen, a young master who stretches out his clothes for food and opens his mouth, what would he do? earlier
This fritters must be particularly unpalatable, that's why there are so many unsold!
In fact, this is also because Tang Tang prepared too many noodles today, and this time is not a meal. People who should go to work and school have eaten early, and it is almost ten o'clock after nine o'clock, and they can only come up at noon guest.
Lin Ke'er didn't go directly, but chose a gap when Xiao Chen turned around to pack his things, and then walked over, gritted his teeth, handed Tang Tang fifteen yuan, and said: "Make a portion of soy milk, and the rest of the money... You want fried dough sticks."
"Ah? Want so much?" Tang Tang was taken aback for a moment, a piece of soy milk costs one yuan, and fourteen yuan buys deep-fried dough sticks? Can this be eaten? What a big appetite is this? Tang Tang looked at Lin Ke'er's petite figure, and painted several greetings on her head! If it was given to Tang Tang and Xiao Chen, she would be able to eat it, but... this one in front of her is also a idiot? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it.
"That... my whole family ate it!" Lin Ke'er also felt a little horrified by her behavior. She was afraid that Xiao Chen would turn around, so she quickly made up a reason: "My family also goes to the morning market, over there..."
"Oh..." Tang Tang nodded: "Look at your school uniform, is it from No. 1 Middle School or No. 2 Middle School? We are still classmates! Not only that, but we are also colleagues, so I will give you more, anyway, I can't sell it today Now, I have to go to the test in a while."
After speaking, Tang Tang gave Lin Ke'er about three bowls of soy milk and fried dough sticks worth about 20 yuan.
"Thank you sister... are you all from No. 2 Middle School?" Lin Ke'er asked carefully.
"En." Tang Tang nodded, she didn't know Lin Ke'er, and she wasn't prepared.
Lin Ke'er saw that Xiao Chen seemed to be about to turn around after packing up, so he quickly took the things, turned around and left: "Goodbye, sister, I'm afraid the house is busy..."
"Oh, it's okay, goodbye." Tang Tang didn't doubt anything.
Xiao Chen turned around and saw that more than half of the fritters on the table were missing, he was taken aback immediately: "It's about to close the stalls, and you actually sold so many?"
"Well, a beautiful and cute girl, the family is also in the morning market, so I will give a little more." Tang Tang said.
"Oh." Xiao Chen nodded, and continued to pack his things.
Lin Ke'er carried the soy milk and fried dough sticks back to her pan noodle stall. Seeing that Lin Ke'er had bought so much, Lin's mother was taken aback, and said angrily, "Damn girl, why did you buy so much? You spent all the money? "
"I... I... I heard that their fried dough sticks and soy milk are delicious, so I will buy more and give my parents a taste..." Lin Keer lowered her head, not daring to look at her mother. This was the first time she had a meal with her parents. Lie, in her opinion, Xiao Chen's fried dough sticks must be very bad, otherwise how could there be so many leftovers that cannot be sold
"Fifteen yuan, you have to sell two bowls of pan noodles, you prodigal son!" Lin's mother was very angry.
"Okay, the child is very filial, and it's a good deal to buy so much for fifteen yuan. We also sell pasta, and the cost can be counted. It's not worth much money at all. Fifteen yuan Earning three yuan and two yuan is the end!" Lin Dongliang smiled and smoothed things over: "Girl, let's eat together!"
"Yeah!" Lin Keer breathed a sigh of relief, but she was very troubled in her heart. Her father regarded her help to Xiao Chen as filial piety to him, which made Lin Keer very uncomfortable, as if she had cheated her parents, but she Can't tell the truth.
Lin Ke'er knew that if she was going to tell her, her family must have misunderstood her puppy love, so she wouldn't be beaten to death!
At this time, Mother Lin carefully weighed the weight of the fried dough sticks, and immediately changed her previous black face and smiled happily: "Don't tell me, you gave me a lot. I just happened to be hungry too."
Seeing that her mother was no longer angry, Lin Keer quickly found three bowls, poured out the soy milk, then picked up a deep-fried dough stick, sat aside and ate silently.
But under one foot, Lin Ke'er was a little surprised. The deep-fried dough sticks were soft and crispy. The heat was just right, and there was no remaining oil. It left a lingering aftertaste after chewing in the mouth!
Is this fried fritters made by Xiao Chen? Lin Ke'er originally thought that Xiao Chen's fritters could not be sold because they were not tasty, but she did not expect that they were so delicious, which really made her feel a little unbelievable.
"Huh? Let alone, this fritters are really delicious." Lin Dongliang took a bite of the fritters, full of praise: "Where did you buy it?"
"Just in front, a fat sister sold it, and she seems to be a student." Lin Ke'er said: "She saw that I was also a student, so she gave me a lot more."
"That's very good, you can go buy some more tomorrow!" It's no wonder Lin's mother is taking advantage of it. With Lin Ke'er's family's income, it's impossible not to be careful: "Our family is tired of eating noodles, so I change the taste every now and then. Not bad!"
"Oh..." Lin Ke'er couldn't be happier, although her mother asked her to buy it tomorrow, but how much can she still buy? I'm afraid it's impossible, and my mother will definitely not let me buy it again.
These fritters seem to be a lot, but it doesn't seem too much for a family of three, especially Lin Dongliang and Lin Mu, who do physical work, have been busy all morning, so they naturally eat a lot.
"I'm done eating, I'm going to school..." Lin Ke'er was very happy when she saw Xiao Chen today, but she was also a little apprehensive. Do you want to promise him yourself
Yes, in Lin Ke'er's eyes, Xiao Chen had committed all kinds of evil before, and she was very afraid of Xiao Chen.
Lin Ke'er was a little worried about gains and losses.
