Chapter 206
The next day, Wen Wen Leyu was going to watch the lantern festival with Li Ye. She held up two cashmere coats and asked Li Ye: "Which one do you think is suitable for me to wear today?"
Li Ye shook his head and said: "Neither is suitable. It's very cold today, better wear the big cotton-padded jacket!"
Wen Wen Leyu pouted and rolled her eyes, let out a light "humph," and went into the room with the cashmere coat.
After a while, a little urban beauty in a gray cashmere coat, small cowhide boots, and a silk scarf appeared in front of Li Ye.
Li Ye also had to admit that Wen Wen Leyu's outfit was really beautiful.
But the two cashmere coats Li Ye made in Hong Kong were not very thick, and the warmth effect certainly wasn't as good as a down jacket or a big cotton-padded jacket.
Beijing had just snowed yesterday, and today's melting snow was the coldest time. Li Ye was afraid of freezing Wen Wen Leyu.
But unfortunately, beauty being frozen is not divided by era, and girls like Wen Wen Leyu can't be an exception.
"Add a hat, otherwise we can't go out."
Li Ye could only settle for the second best, letting Wen Wen Leyu add a hat. According to scientists, the cold-proof effect of a cotton hat is comparable to a coat.
"Okay."
Wen Wen Leyu made an "ok" gesture with her hand, and soon found a fluffy hat, which, when paired with the capable gray coat, added a kind of cute feeling.
"Let's go! Big beauty, be careful not to blind the eyes of a group of single dogs!"
"Hee hee."
The two walked arm in arm, first drove to that small restaurant in Chaoyang District, and used Wen Wen Guohua's banner to offer sacrifices to their five internal organs.
By the time they were full, the sky was already dark. Citizens lacking entertainment activities flocked to the areas with lantern festivals.
Li Ye and Wen Wen Leyu also merged into the lantern market with the crowd. As they walked, influenced by the young couples and lovers on the street, their arms naturally linked together.
After getting along for more than a year, many things were natural. The places where the rest couldn't flow through weren't problems of feelings, but problems of the era.
However, most of the couples in this day and age were sincere, and there were many who suffered a serious illness after a breakup.
And the couples in later generations, even if you drain their kidneys, in the end, you might only get a light "we are not suitable."
The two strolled along and arrived at the snack street. Various peddlers selling snacks were shivering from the cold, but their calls were very loud.
"Xiao Yu, do you want to eat candied haws?"
"I want to eat."
"Xiao Yu, do you want to eat fried rice cake?"
"Mm-hmm."
"Xiao Yu, do you want to eat stinky tofu?"
"You eat it yourself! Stay away from me."
"..."
Wen Wen Leyu finished a candied haw, and Li Ye gave her the remaining half. She didn't mind at all and ate it all up with a "smack, smack."
After eating, she even licked the sugar residue on her lips with her tongue, which really melted Li Ye's heart.
"Hey, is that Li Li Dayong over there?"
Wen Wen Leyu suddenly pushed Li Ye and pointed to the front left.
Li Ye turned his head to look to the left and sure enough saw Li Li Dayong's bear-like body.
Wen Wen Leyu said: "Should we go over and be with him?"
Li Ye shook his head: "Forget it, don't disturb them."
"Them?"
Wen Wen Leyu stood on tiptoes and looked, discovering the girl beside Li Li Dayong.
That girl was naturally Li Li Dayong's sophomore senior sister, Lin Lin Qiuyan.
Wen Wen Leyu asked gossipingly: "Who is that girl? Do you know her?"
"Saw her once on the train home before the New Year."
Li Ye didn't cover it up either and recounted what happened on the train before the New Year.
Wen Wen Leyu pondered for a while and said affirmatively: "She can't be said to be wrong, it's just that she's not on the same path as us. Did Li Li Dayong look at the wrong person? I remember he's not stupid!"
"In matters of feelings, who can say clearly?"
Li Ye sighed and pulled Wen Wen Leyu to walk in another direction.
Li Li Dayong is certainly not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart, but he hasn't talked about love since he was a child, so he is inevitably too persistent about his first time. Outsiders can't save him.
Li Ye and Wen Wen Leyu walked and walked, and found a temporary stall on the side of the street. On the sign in front of the stall, it was written "Mutton soup noodles, three cents a bowl, five cents for two bowls."
Two charcoal stoves modified from big oil drums, one stewing a pot of mutton soup, one rolling a pot of noodle soup,
two gas lights emitting gas light illuminated the surroundings brightly, and two big and small figures were busy to the point of not touching the ground. Who else could it be but Chen Chen Jinhua and Jiang Xiao?
Wen Wen Leyu also saw it, and then she asked Li Ye: "Is that auntie Gao Xiaoyan's mother? She also came to Beijing?"
Last spring, Chen Chen Jinhua and Jiang Xiao's grandfather went to Qingshui County No. 2 Middle School to handle Jiang Xiao's transfer. At that time, Wen Wen Leyu was present and had met Chen Chen Jinhua once.
"Yes, Gao Xiaoyan felt that instead of her old mother selling baskets at the market in her hometown, it would be better to come to Beijing to sell noodles... so she brought her old mother to Beijing."
"Then I have to go over and have a taste."
Wen Wen Leyu walked to the front of the stall happily and said with a smile: "Boss, give me a bowl of noodle soup, the kind of noodle soup that doesn't cost money!"
"..."
Sun Sun Xianjin performed "Sea Cucumber Fried Noodles" at the New Year's Eve party, and one of the lines was "What doesn't cost money?"
"Noodle soup doesn't cost money,"
Wen Wen Leyu laughed out loud when she heard it at that time. She was using it now to tease Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao was busy to the point of having a big head! Suddenly seeing Wen Wen Leyu teasing her, she was stunned for a moment before reacting.
"Wen Wen Leyu, you also came to see the lantern festival! You sit here first, I'll get you a bowl of hot mutton soup to warm up."
"No need, no need, just give me a bowl of noodle soup. I'm too full tonight to drink it."
"If you can't drink it, let Li Ye help you drink it, his appetite is big."
Jiang Xiao was very familiar with Wen Wen Leyu and didn't feel embarrassed at all. She soon got her a big bowl of mutton soup, more than half of which was meat.
Wen Wen Leyu rubbed her little belly, feeling there was still a little gap, so she drank it without being coy.
The people around were basically in the same situation as her. The weather was a bit cold, and many people were from the suburbs to see the lanterns, so a bowl of hot mutton soup noodles was both warming and filling, so the business of the mother and daughter was quite good.
Jiang Xiao wanted to scoop another bowl for Li Ye, but Li Ye stopped her: "Don't scoop for me, Xiao Yu only drinks the soup, the remaining meat is all left for me!"
"Hehe, alright then, if you're hungry, scoop it yourself! I'll go cook noodles for others first."
"You go, you go."
Li Ye carried a small stool, sat at a small table with Wen Wen Leyu, and watched her drink the soup slowly.
And at this time, Chen Chen Jinhua whispered to Jiang Xiao: "Look at this girl, then look at that what's-her-name...
Leaving the meat for the man after drinking the soup herself, this is a good marriage! That Li Li Dayong will have enough suffering in the future!"
Li Ye had sharp ears and heard Chen Chen Jinhua's words, so he asked: "Li Dayong came by just now?"
Jiang Xiao nodded and said "Mm" before going to get busy.
This is not right.
Li Ye stood up and walked over to ask: "What's wrong, Gao Xiaoyan, did something happen just now?"
Jiang Xiao said gloomily: "No, Li Li Dayong came over to chat for a few words and then left. Nothing."
"With your little mind, can you hide it from me?"
Li Ye smiled and asked Chen Chen Jinhua directly: "Auntie, we are all straightforward people, what exactly happened just now?"
Chen Chen Jinhua is a straightforward person, so she simply said: "Nothing much, it's just that the girl who was with Li Li Dayong just now didn't speak nicely.
She said the country gave my Gao Xiaoyan a salary, so she shouldn't come to do this kind of small business... I couldn't take it and argued with her for a few words. As a result, she actually said Gao Xiaoyan was embarrassing university students."
Li Ye said in surprise: "The country gave Gao Xiaoyan a living allowance. This noodle stall is your business, Auntie. Helping her mother's business, how is it embarrassing?"
"Exactly, exactly. Why didn't I think of it just now? My Gao Xiaoyan has a soft temper and was squeezed by that girl, feeling uncomfortable in her heart... Next time I meet that what's-her-name, see if I don't let her..."
"Oh, where am I feeling uncomfortable?" Jiang Xiao said annoyedly: "I'm afraid of causing trouble for Li Li Dayong. Mom, can you stop guessing randomly? We earn money with our own hands, whoever wants to gossip can gossip."
"Yes, yes, it's Mom who guessed wrong, it's Mom who was wrong, girl, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Watching the mother and daughter having a small disagreement, Li Ye had no good way either.
People who are resilient and self-reliant sometimes have a bit of inferiority in their hearts. Jiang Xiao's personality is not as open-minded as Chen Chen Jinhua's. Occasionally encountering some annoying things, it definitely takes time to digest.
"Li Ye, come over and eat the meat."
Wen Wen Leyu suddenly shouted at Li Ye.
After Li Ye went over and sat down, Wen Wen Leyu stood up and took off the cashmere coat worth several thousand.
"Hold it for me for a while."
Wen Wen Leyu stuffed the coat into Li Ye's arms and walked to the side of Jiang Xiao, who was rushing to roll noodles, and picked up the noodles to help put them in the pot.
"Hey, Wen Wen Leyu, you don't need to..."
But Wen Wen Leyu didn't listen to Jiang Xiao at all. She cooked the noodles in two or three strokes, scooped them into a bowl, added noodle soup and mutton soup, and sent them to the customer. A series of actions were quite agile.
"Mutton soup noodles, mutton soup noodles, three cents a bowl, five cents for two bowls!"
"Pfft~"
Li Ye had a piece of mutton stuck in his throat and almost couldn't swallow it.
Can you imagine that the daughter of a fifth-level administrative cadre would shout in a night market stall?
This is like a delivery guy crashing his car and about to miss an order, but a guy driving a Mercedes stops the car, puts on the delivery guy's uniform, goes up to the 18th floor in one breath, and delivers all the orders for the delivery guy.
Everyone is human, who is more noble than whom?
Wen Wen Leyu scooped four or five bowls of noodles in a while and also settled the bill for four or five guests.
Then she glared at Li Ye: "You haven't finished eating yet! Didn't you see we're too busy?"
"Mm, mm, mm~"
Li Ye tilted his neck, poured all the remaining meat in the bowl into his mouth, puffed his cheeks, and came over to help.
Four people surrounded a small stall, busy in the winter night, not knowing how much warmth was born, flowing warmly into whose heart.
The child has a fever, in a flurry, and it's even later...
