Chapter 114 What are you looking for in the night sky (please vote for me, please vote for recommendations)
For a moment of lost consciousness, Zhang Wentao suddenly saw the other person pressing his lips with his fingers.
He turned his head and said, "I'm going to make a cup of coffee."
With that said, he got up and walked to the kitchen.
Xu Hongdou looked at the other person's back and smiled. Zhang Wentao's slightly panicked expression just now was noticed by her who was always watching the other person.
Thinking of the other person looking at her in a daze, she bit her lip slightly and said, "I brought Pu'er coffee back, would you like to try it? It tastes pretty good."
Zhang Wentao in the kitchen had just found the tool for grinding coffee beans. When he heard Xu Hongdou's words, he did not answer. Instead, he walked back to the restaurant with the grinding tool and handed it to the other party.
Said: "My hands are tired, please help me. I will get ice cubes."
"That's just right. You bring out the desserts and I'll make the coffee." Xu Hongdou stood up with a smile and took the hand-cranked coffee grinder from the other party. When he walked to the kitchen, he said, "By the way, I met Aunt Feng in the warehouse today.
Yeah, the conditions at her home are really not good."
"Yeah." Zhang Wentao, who was opening the refrigerator to get ice cubes, responded.
When he came to the kitchen with ice cubes, he put them into the cup and said, "What, you want to help her?"
"Help? Then I can't do it." Xu Hongdou shook his head, thought for a while and said: "Aunt Feng's son is still in there because of his mistakes. Her lover, Uncle Chang, farms and has an orchard. But Aunt Feng's health is
He's not very good and can't do heavy work, so Uncle Chang has to work harder."
"Her personality is the same as that of the older people, but she is quite easy to talk to. She can remember all the points I told her today, and I observed it today. When she is not busy, she can
She is not idle either. She has been weaving bamboo baskets, which should be used to supplement the family income. I just look at her and feel so pitiful."
"But if I want to help, I can only help her at work. After all, my ability is limited."
Zhang Wentao nodded: "People always say that pitiful people must be hateful, but they don't know that the next sentence is that hateful people also have pitiable suffering. So the world is like this, and every household has a scripture that is difficult to recite."
"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Xu Hongdou stopped what he was doing, frowned and looked at Zhang Wentao and said, "Why do you act like Mr. Ma and quote from classics?"
"Is there any?" Zhang Wentao thought about it, and it seemed that what he said was much more straightforward than what Mr. Ma said.
"Yes, tell me what happened that made you realize a lot today." Xu Hongdou saw that his guidance was effective, so he pursed his lips and looked at Zhang Wentao, with some expectations in his eyes.
Zhang Wentao understood immediately, looked at each other with Xu Hongdou, and said with a smile: "Actually, it was similar to what happened with Aunt Feng. Today, I scolded a young man in the kitchen for something. Later I found out that his parents were divorced, and his grandparents were divorced.
He died a few years ago. His family conditions were not good, so he came out to work early."
Although Zhang Wentao didn't say much, Xu Hongdou understood the general situation.
After grinding the coffee, boiling the water, and making the cold brew, she said, "Actually, children like this have a rather sensitive personality. You also have a bad temper, so you still need to have some skills when speaking.
"
"I have a bad temper?" Zhang Wentao frowned.
Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sneered and said, "As for you, you are probably the worst-tempered among my colleagues and friends since I went to college and started working."
"Oh." Zhang Wentao felt a little disappointed after hearing this, and thought: Am I that bad? I am still the worst. But then I thought about it, and Xu Hongdou didn't do well either, so he pretended not to care.
Xu Hongdou makes coffee.
He found that the other party's brewing skills seemed to be more proficient than a few days ago.
Then I thought that the other person's Pu'er coffee beans must have been brought back from Xie Zhiyao, and I began to have a taste for it again. But the taste now has changed from the past.
After all, he already knew that the other party did not accept Xie Zhiyao's pursuit, but they were in constant contact because of work.
But thinking about the other party's frequent contact, the taste in my heart is aggravated...
"Okay." Xu Hongdou finished finishing and handed the hot coffee to Zhang Wentao. He looked at the other person and was stunned again: "Ahem, what are you thinking about?"
"Ah? I didn't think about anything, thank you."
After Zhang Wentao came back to his senses, he took it, poured it into the ice cube cup he had prepared, and asked tentatively: "Are you busy with work later?"
Xu Hongdou took the used cup and kettle and went to the sink to start rinsing it. Hearing this question, he pouted and nodded: "Busy, Huang Xinxin has made an appointment with a camera crew to come over. There are also things about Shaohua Bookstore, plus the things in the store."
There are so many things.”
"and you."
"Stop." Xu Hongdou did not give Zhang Wentao a chance, and said softly: "As for me, I just like it here, and I want to find something to do for myself, to enrich my life here, and to accumulate the courage to start again.
"
"Well, that's good." Zhang Wentao nodded.
He felt that he was indeed not qualified to say what he wanted to say just now, and he was upset that he almost said something he shouldn't have said out of jealousy. Can he carefully taste Xu Hongdou's words and gain the courage to start again?
What kind of injury did he need to come to a place like Yunmiao Village?
He felt as if he had caught something.
His words made Zhang Wentao fall silent again. This result was within Xu Hongdou's expectation. Zhang Wentao's character made him feel like this. When chatting casually, he would suddenly fall into silence.
Then you need to find a topic to get the other person to open up the conversation again.
After the two of them finished cleaning up and returned to the dining table, they lowered their heads and ate the dessert Zhang Wentao brought back.
Looking at the Opera in the box, Xu Hongdou regretted that she had proposed to eat dessert in exchange for the other person telling her what was bothering her. Although it was rich in chocolate and coffee flavor, you could feel it between your lips and teeth after just taking a small bite.
It melts slowly, and the sweet and greasy feeling lingers on the tip of the tongue.
But this cake has meat...
While sharing the dessert, she listened to Zhang Wentao's narration and learned that this cake has a history of more than 100 years and means an opera house. The traditional method has six layers and a piece of gold foil is placed on the surface to symbolize it.
Garnier at the Opera.
But these little after-dinner knowledges are not as important to Xu Hongdou as her gaining weight!
Moreover, the other party also disliked her for being fat.
Looking at Zhang Wentao feasting in front of her, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but subconsciously felt that the other party was taking revenge on her, but she couldn't stop her mouth...
…
The two of them finished their dessert in the restaurant. After resting for a while, Xu Hongdou packed up his things and prepared to go upstairs as if he was angry.
She still waited for Zhang Wentao to turn off the light, and then walked up the steps together.
"What do you want to eat tomorrow morning?"
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to his room, Zhang Wentao held up his mobile phone to shine and asked casually.
"I'll tell you tomorrow morning when you run with me."
Zhang Wentao turned his head sideways. Although Xu Hongdou was angry in the moonlight, he still looked very gentle. His touching eyes looked into the distance, as if he was looking for something...
Everything is so beautiful, everything is comfortable, everything is so comfortable.
He also likes to look at the stars, but the brightest "Sirius" in the sky can only be seen in the morning. She doesn't even know this, right?
Thinking about it, Zhang Wentao:
"……."
It may not be updated at 12 o'clock. Everyone knows that I have not saved the manuscript. It is still less than an hour and a half away. I can't guarantee whether I can write it. Because the next chapter is very crucial! I want to think about it carefully before writing!
