Chapter 138
A bumpkin who just came from the countryside
Tong Yao counted the time and waited at the station for more than 20 minutes, her face flushed with heat. She finally waited until Si Boyi arrived. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it would be better to be in the 21st century. Communication is convenient and it is not difficult to contact her with a mobile phone.
I stayed in the sun for so long like a fool.
It is a pity that Si Chen in the 21st century has become an old man and has missed the golden period of doing business. After this period of training, Tong Yao still prefers her current life.
She had been alone for too long in her previous life, but now she felt the warmth of being cared for, and she no longer wanted to bear the trivialities of life alone.
"Sister-in-law, Xiaohui, you must have been waiting here for a long time!" Si Boyi was carrying a big cloth bag and felt a little sorry when he saw Tong Yao and Si Xiaohui's faces flushed with heat.
On such a hot day, Tong Yao got tanned under the sun.
"It didn't take long." Tong Yao shook her head. Although she was young, she was very considerate in her work. "You haven't eaten yet! Let's find a restaurant to eat first!"
"I, I've eaten." Si Boyi's face turned red. He was embarrassed to let Tong Yao treat him to dinner. He was a bit chauvinistic. He always felt that men should pay when men and women go out to eat together, but when he went out, he only brought
I paid ten yuan, gave Zhang Lijuan five yuan, and spent another fifty cents on the bus, leaving me with only four yuan.
Things are expensive in the city, and I don't know if this amount of money will be enough for food. If not, it will be embarrassing to pay.
Even if he barely had enough to spend, he, a grown man, had to keep some pocket money on him. If he bought something small, he couldn't reach out to Tong Yao to ask for money.
"Second brother, when did you have dinner?" Si Xiaohui exposed his lie directly, "It was only after eight o'clock when you left home, right? It's almost noon, we are going to have lunch."
"I..." Si Boyi's face turned redder in embarrassment. When he arrived in the city, he felt out of place. He was not as comfortable as he was in the countryside. He always felt a little reserved and he was not able to speak clearly.
It is said that three pennies can defeat a heroic man. This is true at all. You cannot survive in the city without money.
Seeing that Si Boyi's face turned red, Tong Yao probably guessed something, but she didn't point it out, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Hey! On your first day in the city, I, my sister-in-law, will definitely treat you to a meal.
Yes, otherwise your brother will ask me about it at night and know that I didn’t invite you to dinner, and he will say that I am stingy."
Hearing this, Si Boyi felt a little less stressed, but he was used to saving money. Even if it was Tong Yao's treat, he was embarrassed to let Tong Yao waste money, "The hotels in the city are expensive, why don't we just buy some steamed buns or something to eat?"
Bar!"
"Second brother, my sister-in-law can earn seventy or eighty yuan a day by opening a shop. We can still afford it when we occasionally go to a restaurant to have a meal. Don't be like a country bumpkin who talks about expensive things and expensive things. People will know at a glance that you are.
You're a country bumpkin who just came from the countryside." I finally went to a restaurant to have a meal, but I didn't want my second brother to disturb me.
For Si Xiaohui, who is used to eating farm food, eating in a restaurant is a kind of enjoyment. If she were rich, she would go to a big restaurant to eat every now and then and order whatever she wanted.
"..."
Si Boyi's cheeks were so hot when Si Xiaohui said that, they were so red that they almost bled.
"It's not shameful to be from the countryside. Everything the city people eat is grown in the countryside. Don't think you're from the countryside and still look down on them." Tong Yao didn't like her, so she explained the situation in a few words.
Xiao Hui was speechless.
Si Xiaohui was not angry at all. She was in a good mood when her second brother came. From now on, when the brother and sister work in the city, life at home will become better and better.
"Let's just stay in this store! There is a fan in this store." Tong Yao took the two of them to a restaurant near the bus station and stopped. The weather was hot, and it was more comfortable to eat with the fan blowing. They had been in the sun for more than 20 minutes.
Use a fan to avoid heat stroke.
With the recent high temperature, few people go out in time to brave the bright sun at noon, so the business of the restaurant is not very good. There is not a single customer in the restaurant. The boss is sitting under the fan reading a novel. When he sees the three people coming in, he quickly closes the door.
Shang Shuben cheerfully asked the three of them what they wanted to eat.
"Sauerkraut fish, spicy chicken, braised pork, fried pork with chili pepper, and a bowl of tomato and egg soup."
Tong Yao ordered four meat dishes in one go, making Si Boyi's frightened expression look like he was possessed by a demon. He was stunned for a while, and then whispered after the boss left.
"Sister-in-law, we can't finish eating so many meat dishes, can we?"
How much would it cost to have so many meat dishes? Even though he didn't pay for it himself, Si Boyi was embarrassed to let Tong Yao spend the money. He grew up in a poor family and he knew that making money was not easy.
Si Xiaohui also felt strange, "Sister-in-law, don't you usually like to combine meat and vegetables?"
To be honest, for Si Xiaohui, who could not eat meat more than a few times a year at home, she would not feel bored eating meat every time. She was just curious about Tong Yao's sudden sexual transformation.
Tong Yao pulled up the stool and sat down, blinking her big eyes and said: "I have a better appetite recently. You can eat more later. Don't worry about the money. The money you eat now will be earned after our store opens."
In fact, Tong Yao didn't like eating such greasy food in summer at all. She knew that Si Boyi and Si Xiaohui had different temperaments, so she ordered so many meat dishes. She was sure that if she ordered three meat dishes and one vegetarian dish now, Si Boyi would definitely
Eat only vegetarian dishes.
After suffering at home for more than 20 years, and now coming to the city, Tong Yao can't guarantee that she will be able to make a lot of money with him in the future, but at least she won't let him go hungry. During the first half month at Si's house, Si Boyi had been
The original owner was good, Tong Yao remembered it.
It's not a loss to treat Si Boyi to a big meal now. The benefits Si Boyi will create in the future will definitely be more than the money of this meal.
"Sister-in-law, let me do any dirty work in the future. Although I don't have any skills, I am strong and can work." Si Boyi was honest but not stupid. He probably guessed something in his heart and said he was not moved.
It's fake, but he has a stupid mouth and can't express himself, so he can only repay Tong Yao in this way.
"Sit down first." Tong Yao motioned Si Boyi to sit down, with such a big man standing in front of him to block the wind.
"Hey, okay."
Si Boyi giggled and bent down to sit down, but there was no place to put the bag in his hand. He looked around and finally put it at his feet.
"Second brother, what are you carrying? Such a big package?" Si Xiaohui tilted her head and kept staring at Si Boyi's cloth bag. The second brother only had two sets of clothes to change back and forth. When Tong Yao got married,
Before coming here, he was almost shirtless in the summer to save on clothes. Now he carried such a big bag when he went to the city, and he didn't know what good things were in it.
"Our mother asked me to bring your clothes, as well as some dried vegetables and bean paste." Si Boyi was a little embarrassed. They had grown up eating these things, and they were used to eating them and liked them more. Tong Yao was from the city.
Since I was a kid, I have always had good food and clothing, and I don't like these things at all.
When she was in the village, Tong Yao frowned when she saw these things. In order for Tong Yao to eat well, her mother often opened a small stove.
