Ninety-seventh meeting Lin Ling
Lin Ling still looked the same, with a "Noriko Sakai" short haircut, a light beige shirt, a pair of culottes, a blouse, and a pair of lace socks and sneakers.
She opened the order carefully and didn't notice me coming. I didn't rush to greet her either. I just stood by the counter and watched her quietly opening the order. When she finished opening the order, she raised her head.
When I was explaining the order to the boss who was purchasing the goods, she saw me.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
"Sister Ling, I'm here." I called her.
It was obvious that she was surprised and very happy. She quickly said: "Come in, come in." As she spoke, she opened the cover of the counter and let me in.
After I entered, she closed the barrier and brought a plastic stool for me to sit on. She said, "You sit down first. I finished the business and asked my mother to come and look after the stall. I didn't expect you to come."
I asked my mother to rest at home today. I called her right away and asked her to come over and look at the stall. We will go back to eat."
I nodded. But I felt very strange in my heart. Didn’t we eat at the stalls before? Ask the lunch box seller outside to bring two boxes of lunch, two vegetables and a soup. Why should we go back to eat?
Although I thought so, I didn't say it out loud. She picked up the phone at the stall and called Aunt Lin. I couldn't understand anything she said. It was all gibberish, but she was speaking their Hokkien dialect.
After making the call, she told the boss who purchased the goods that there was a box lunch seller outside. If you went to eat, go to Lao Yang and follow him to the warehouse to get the goods with the goods list.
The boss took the bill and looked at it, then took out a wad of money from his bag, tapped it, and paid it to Lin Ling. Then he took the bill and went to eat.
The boss left. Lin Ling also sat down and put her hands on her knees. She looked directly at me and said nothing. I also looked at her and said nothing.
Lin Ling is relatively slim and thin, and looks like a college student. If she didn't tell you her age, you would never think that she is almost 25 years old. Her skin is not that good, and it doesn't feel as good as the skin of local Chengdu women.
But her big eyes are very beautiful, sparkling and watery, and her eyebrows are also very beautiful, with curved willow eyebrows. She also has two shallow dimples when she smiles.
Just staring at each other. Looking and looking, the two of them couldn't help but laugh. Almost at the same time, they asked each other, are you okay?
I said I was fine. But she said: not good.
I asked her: "What's wrong?"
She pointed to her heart with her right index finger and said, "It's not good here."
Me: "Have you seen the doctor?" I thought she said her heart was not good.
I saw her clenching her little fist and punching me. I asked her why did you hit me?
She said: "You did it on purpose! Did you curse me to have a heart attack?"
I quickly shook my head and said no.
I was about to ask what it was if it wasn't an illness. Before I could say anything, Aunt Lin's magnetic voice came over.
"Mu boy, why are you here!"
Aunt Lin said hello to me while looking at Sister Lin Ling.
Sister Lin Ling: "Mom, you came so quickly."
Aunt Lin: "I put down the phone and went out. When I came out, I met a brother, so I called him."
Lin Ling took off her blouse and said, "Mom, I'll take Brother Mu back for dinner."
Aunt Lin tilted her head, put her hands on her chest, and said coquettishly, "I haven't eaten yet."
Lin Ling: "I'll call you a lunch box." After saying that, she pulled me out.
Aunt Lin smiled and said, "You guys are having fun."
We took the stairs from the first floor below to reach the ground very quickly. It felt very hot as soon as we came out. The first floor below is equivalent to the basement, so we didn't feel so hot.
I am hot.
Lin Ling:Are you thirsty?
Me: Kind of. What about you? Before I finished speaking, she walked over to buy water.
I also walked over and she bought two bottles of drinks. The Sprite was for her and the Coke was for me. They were just taken out of the freezer. I helped her unscrew the lid with a pop. She said: Thank you.
I said I just wanted to thank you. Thank you for buying me a Coke.
She said: Then will you thank me for inviting you to dinner later?
I laughed out loud. I said: Do you really want to treat me to dinner?
Her: Well. You came so far away, I must cook for you with my own hands.
I said: Sister Ling is still nice to me.
She said: Well? What do you mean "Sister Ling is still nice to me"? Is there anyone else who is nice to you?
I said: No.
Her: That’s pretty much it.
She took me to the vegetable market and bought ribs, tenderloin, king oyster mushrooms, clams, loofah, and tofu. I said I couldn’t finish buying so much.
She said not much, just three dishes.
Entering the house, I brought the dishes to the kitchen and put them down. She had already turned on the air conditioner and was making jasmine tea. I said I don't drink tea. She said drinking tea is good for the body. Drinking ice water just now is not good for the body. Yes.
Drink tea. Warm tea can quench your thirst without hurting your spleen and stomach.
It was rare for me to hear her talk. She just said she was starving to death.
She smiled and said: You will never starve to death. At most, you will starve to death.
She said you watch TV first and I'll go cook.
Soon, the familiar taste of medicinal soup came out. I have drunk this soup many times, and the taste is very familiar.
She said: Go and wash your hands quickly.
I had no choice but to wash my hands obediently. When I came over, I saw that the table was already set with herbal braised pork ribs and tenderloin, king oyster mushrooms in oyster sauce and clams, luffa and tofu soup. I was about to take a bowl to scoop out rice. She quickly looked at me and I had to put
The bowl was handed to her.
She took the bowl, scooped out a bowl of medicated soup and put it in front of me, then scooped out a bowl for herself. She sat down and said to me: "Drink the soup first, then eat, and you will be in good health."
While eating, we chatted. As we chatted, I couldn't help but ask: "Sister Ling, are you really leaving tomorrow?"
She pursed her lips and nodded.
Then we were all silent.
After dinner, I picked up the bowl and washed it. Sister Lin Ling said she wouldn't let me wash it, so she rushed to wash it.
Chapter completed!
