I Just Came to Borrow a Light Chapter 10:
"Why don't you make tofu today?" When Lin Chengbu ran into the back kitchen, it was already past four o'clock. Not to mention that the tofu was not made in advance, even the time required to prepare the ingredients for other dishes was too long. , "Today I..."
"It's okay, I called you to turn off the phone in the morning, so I asked Master Liang to come and make tofu in the morning." The lady boss looked at him, "Are you sick? Your face is really ugly."
"Maybe I caught a cold," Lin Chengbu rubbed his face, "I overslept after taking the medicine in the morning."
"You should rest for two days, your master is free these two days," the proprietress patted him, "go to the hospital for a medical examination? Don't think you're young and don't care."
"You are more verbose than my mother," Lin Chengbu smiled, "I'm really fine."
"If I were your mother, I would **** you to the hospital directly, and I would still be talking nonsense with you here." The proprietress sighed.
The proprietress' name is Sun Yingchun. She is a very nice person. If it weren't for the fact that her daughter was only four years old, Lin Chengbu would still want to recognize her as her godmother.
This private restaurant called | Chunzhi Xiaoguan was run by her grandfather. When she got older, it was handed over to her, and she did a good job.
There are not many employees in the restaurant, and Sun Yingchun has a good relationship with everyone. After Lin Chengbu and Master jumped over, he has not seen any employees who resigned. These are the faces for so many years.
Sometimes he feels depressed, and it's a lot more comfortable to see the familiar environment and familiar faces in the small restaurant... But today is an exception. Today he is really sick, even if he looks at the face of the master Also useless.
Lin Chengbu changed his clothes, stuffed a ginseng lozenge into his mouth, then went to the kitchen and replaced the master who was preparing to cook.
"It's all the same as before, except for one table with a taro." Master said.
"Well, good." Lin Chengbu nodded.
"If you are not feeling well, take a rest for a few days," the master said. "The dishes you make in this state also carry your emotions, which will affect the taste."
"I'm overjoyed now." Lin Chengbu smiled at him.
Master is always so eloquent about cooking and practicing kung fu. Lin Chengbu felt that according to his own understanding, he would not be able to get the true inheritance of his old man in this life.
After being busy making a few dishes, Lin Cheng stepped out of the kitchen and planned to go to the backyard to rest for a while.
The backyard is as well decorated as the front yard, and there are two sets of small tables and chairs, but no guests come here. Usually, the staff of the small restaurant rest here.
Lin Chengbu sat down on the chair, lit a cigarette, and took out his mobile phone to check.
There seems to be no problem with the phone. After turning it on, it showed a few missed calls and two text messages. After reading it, he deleted them one by one.
He has been in the habit of doing this for a long time. When he opens the call log and text message, he can see Yuan Wu's name. The last call came from Yuan Wu. He didn't receive it, and then Yuan Wu sent it again. Got a text message.
- Forget it, don't go, I'm not in the mood.
It has been almost two years, and he has never had a normal communication with Yuan Wu, even if it is a dispute and a lack of confrontation.
Lin Chengbu sighed softly and let out a smoke ring.
"Xiaobu," a waiter came over when Lin Chengbu was drowsy leaning back in his chair, "the four-pack customer wants to see the chef."
"Huh?" Lin Chengbu was still a little confused, "Is there something wrong with the dishes?"
"No, it means to meet the chef," said the waiter.
Lin Chengbu frowned, feeling as if he already knew who he was: "How about a few chefs..."
"I named the chef who wanted to meet 'Treading Snow'," the waiter smiled, "and said it was the young one."
Lin Chengbu clicked his tongue, and the tofu master named the tofu Ta Xue, and he and Lin Chengbu were the only people who could cook this dish in the small restaurant.
"Next time he comes again, he will say I resigned." Lin Chengbu stood up helplessly.
"Don't dare, I can't provoke him," said the waiter.
The man I can't afford to offend is Jiang Chengyu, the owner of a particularly impressive bar in the city, a long-time customer of the small restaurant, and Sun Yingchun is very familiar with him. .
Lin Chengbu thought he was young and talented when I first met him, but after that... I couldn't tell, but it was very difficult.
Lin Chengbu felt a headache every time he saw him, even if he knew Yuan Wu because of him.
"Boss Jiang," Lin Chengbu pushed open the door of Sibao and walked in. There was only Jiang Chengyu in the room. He weakly greeted, "Are you not satisfied with the dishes?"
"I knew you were there," Jiang Chengyu leaned back in the chair and smiled, "I asked Sun Erniang just now, and she said you didn't come, Master Liang made the tofu, and I knew it was you as soon as I ate it. "
Lin Chengbu didn't speak.
"Sit down," Jiang Chengyu pointed to the chair next to him, "I have nothing to do, so I will chat with you."
"I'm at work." Lin Chengbu said.
"Fart," Jiang Chengyu glanced at him, "you got off work after cooking. You must have been smoking in the backyard just now. How long have we known each other, talk to me about this."
"We've known each other for so long, you should know why I talk to you about this," Lin Chengbu said. "It's okay, I'll go first, I'm not feeling well today."
"It's obvious," Jiang Chengyu said, "it's like he's grown up."
"Yes." Lin Chengbu responded.
"Okay, I have nothing serious to do," Jiang Chengyu slowly scooped a spoon of tofu, "I heard you found him?"
"Yeah." Lin Chengbu glanced at him, who was so quick.
"Continue again?" Jiang Chengyu asked.
"Yeah." Lin Chengbu took the pot on the table and poured a glass of water to drink.
"Then I'm out of play again?" Jiang Chengyu looked regretful.
"When did you have a show?" Lin Chengbu looked at him.
"Really heartless, I really want to slap you," Jiang Chengyu raised his head and laughed, "I know I can't bear to see you like this."
"Then stop watching, please." Lin Chengbu said sincerely.
"Let's see," Jiang Chengyu took a sip of beer, "Xiaobu, he is no longer the one he used to be, do you understand?"
"So what?" Lin Chengbu asked back.
"What you like is the one before, not the one now," Jiang Chengyu said, "You are in the same state as him now, do you know if you are sick?"
"I didn't ask you for medicine again," Lin Chengbu said, turning around and walking towards the door, "I know what I'm doing."
"Xiaobu," Jiang Chengyu said behind him, "I'll teach you a way."
Lin Chengbu stopped and turned to look at him.
"If I were you," Jiang Chengyu stood up, walked up to him, leaned in and whispered, "I would give up getting him back, anyway, if he doesn't admit that he has a problem and doesn't cooperate with the doctor, he will It's hard to go back, right?"
Lin Chengbu stepped back and gave way, but did not speak.
"Then I'll give up. From now on," Jiang Chengyu said, "start over with him."
"Huh?" Lin Chengbu was stunned.
"I'm so great," Jiang Chengyu returned to the table and sat down, "to tell you such a good way."
"Yes," Lin Chengbu nodded, "Why are you so great."
"I don't think he's interested in you either. When he rejects you," Jiang Chengyu took a chopstick and ate, "I'll wait for you here."
Lin Chengbu felt a little chills on his body, and he probably still had the fever. He felt aching all over and was not in the mood to continue discussing this issue with him, so he walked out of the box and closed the door.
However, Jiang Chengyu's unreliable proposal really moved his heart.
He has indeed been trying his best to bring Yuan Wu back and return to his original life, but Yuan Wu did not cooperate at all, and even kept finding various reasons for himself to ignore everything unreasonable.
Then, if he gives up and follows Yuan Wu... in another world, start over in Yuan Wu's world...
Would this work?
Is it fair?
Lin Chengbu's already dizzy head became even more dizzy after thinking so deeply. When he opened the car door, he felt that his eyes shook violently.
He hesitated and closed the car door, went to the side of the road and called a car.
I didn't want to eat, and I didn't feel like I wanted to eat. He bought some red bean cakes and a bucket of yogurt at the bakery downstairs and went home.
The weekend is approaching. The phone rang several times in the night. A group of friends wanted to get together. Lin Chengbu pushed all of them away.
He didn't want to do anything. After meeting Yuan Wu, he didn't want to do anything else, and he was uncomfortable.
The group ate two red bean cakes on the sofa, drank half a cup of yogurt, and fell asleep before recognizing all the faces while watching a TV show.
The small refrigerator was empty, not even the popsicles, so Yuan Wu had to take out a note and start writing a shopping list.
The first few pages of the notepad are still the content that he can't understand, the messy handwriting is arranged randomly.
It should be all insignificant things that he wrote down in the past, but why he has not torn it up and kept it... He can't remember the reason, even why he doesn't look at it anymore. Can't remember.
After making a list of things to buy, Yuan Wu tore off the note.
The notepad is already very thin, and there are only a few pages left. After tearing up, this book should be thrown away.
So...what did he write before?
Yuan Wu squeezed the notebook, hesitated for a moment, and opened the first page.
It's very windy.
Remember to call.
Buy snacks.
……
They were all reminders. Yuan Wu only glanced at them. At the bottom of the page was a messy line of things like a list. The three words in it made his hand shake violently, and he quickly put This page has been turned over.
Dive goggles.
He suddenly didn't want to look at the following things, and a strong unease came up in waves, and his eyes quickly swept across the next two or three pages.
A date jumps into his line of sight.
He threw the book aside as if he had been stabbed, and threw a few old clothes over the book.
Breathing is fast, and his heart is beating so fast that his body is shaking.
Never watch it again.
Yuan Wu stood at the stern, lit a cigarette, and stared at the water.
The wind is not too strong today, and the water surface is very calm. Occasionally, small fish can be seen swimming quickly, causing subtle water waves.
Yuan Wu doesn't often stare at the water like this. Whether it is clear or turbid water, it will make him feel uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.
But sometimes he feels inseparable, resists but wants to approach inexplicably. It seems that there is some kind of relationship between him and the water, just like those on the note pad that make him inexplicably terrified The content he was afraid to see, but couldn't throw away.
Why...
Yuan Wu took the checklist and was about to go to the village to pick up the car. When he passed by the dock, he saw the big head.
"You didn't see me yesterday!" Datou asked expectantly.
"No," Yuan Wu took ten dollars from his wallet, "Here it is, don't spend it indiscriminately."
"Well, thank you Brother Xiaowu... Uncle," Big Tou took the money and put it into his pocket carefully, "Then can I spend a dollar a day?"
"One dollar for two days," Yuan Wu said, "if you only use it once every four days, you can use two dollars."
"Oh," Datou nodded, "where are you going?"
"Go to town." Yuan Wu said.
"My dad will take me there later!" Datou was very excited, "There is an episode today."
"Well," Yuan Wu said, "Let's see if we can meet by chance."
"What is a chance encounter?" Big Head asked immediately.
"When I didn't say it." Yuan Wu turned and walked towards the village.
When I got the car, the owner of the boat came over: "I'll tell you something."
"Huh?" Yuan Wu responded.
"The village will count the floating population, probably next month," said the owner of the boat. "There will be someone on the boat at that time. Let me tell you, it seems that it is to check the ID card."
"Okay, thank you." Yuan Wu said.
ID card?
He frowned.
A rainstorm every day, this rhythm has been going on for a week, sometimes in the morning, sometimes in the afternoon, sometimes in the evening, sometimes the next day.
Yuan Wu sat in the cabin for three days without going out, holding a notebook every day.
Keep writing, keep writing.
He didn't know why he was suddenly so anxious to write the whole story in his head, as if he wouldn't have time if he didn't write it now.
Compared with the previous update every three or two days, each chapter in these three days has made readers uncomfortable.
- Omg, did I click the wrong text!
-I went out and looked at the sun
-Aren't you afraid of spoiling us like this?
-Can't believe my eyes keep updating? If I didn't know it was written by you at a glance, I would have suspected that the vest was replaced!
Yuan Wu suddenly closed the computer.
There were footsteps coming from outside. Although he hadn't heard it a few times, he could still hear the speed and rhythm. It was Lin Chengbu.
Mainly because no one else came here, except for the big head, only Lin Chengbu.
"Are you there?" Lin Chengbu shouted while standing on the boat next to him.
"Not here." Yuan Wu replied.
"I brought a sensor here," Lin Chengbu held a shopping bag in his hand, "Can I replace the broken one for you?"
Yuan Wu didn't speak. After a while, he came over and opened the hatch, leaning against the door and watching Lin Chengbu.
"This is custom-made," Lin Chengbu raised the bag in his hand, "I think it's quite useful."
"Are you so idle?" Yuan Wu touched a cigarette and took it out.
"I work four days a week," Lin Cheng walked over and took out the sensor box in the bag, "Have you eaten? I'll treat you to dinner later?"
Yuan Wu looked at him.
"Let's put this on first." Lin Chengbu smiled.
The size of the sensor is similar to the original one, because the original connection is still good, so it was installed quickly.
"Let me try?" Lin Chengbu turned on the switch.
Yuan Wu nodded.
Lin Chengbu took a step towards the hatch.
"Stand! What are you doing! Get out!" A majestic male voice rang out.
Yuan Wu, who was leaning against the door, was startled, and fell on the boat with an unlit cigarette in his mouth: "What the hell?"
Lin Chengbu smiled and took a step back.
"Retreat! Retreat!" The male voice sounded majestic again.
"How is it?" He clapped his hands and looked at Yuan Wu.
"...You recorded this yourself, right?" Yuan Wu picked up the cigarette and put it in his mouth again.
"Do you hear it?" Lin Chengbu said with a smile, "I didn't hear it for the first time myself."
"Thank you." Yuan Wu returned to the cabin.
"Are you going to eat?" Lin Chengbu asked while standing outside the door.
"Stand! What! Go!"
Yuan Wu looked back at him.
"Do you want to go? Go to Shenqiao, I heard that there is a fish stewed with soil pepper that is very good there." Lin Chengbu retreated to the bow, "I want to try it."
"Back again! Back again!"
Yuan Wu reluctantly went over and turned off the sensor: "I don't want to move."
"Didn't you already post today's update?" Lin Chengbu looked at him, "Let's go out for a walk."
Yuan Wu didn't speak, he touched the lighter and lit the cigarette.
"It's not too far, it's only 20 minutes by car," Lin Cheng said carefully after a pause, "that's... I don't want to eat alone, can you... accompany me to eat?"
Yuan Wu leaned on the mat and stared at him for a long time, until after the long-burned soot fell into his hands, he shook his hands and said, "You are a very good cook. , run a farmhouse to eat fish?"
"The master is in the folk." Lin Chengbu said.
"Walk over there," Yuan Wu pinched out his cigarette, "I don't want to take a car."
"Okay!" Lin Chengbu nodded immediately.
Yuan Wu did not expect that he would agree to Lin Chengbu going to Shenqiao for dinner.
Apart from passing by the farmhouse when he went to town, he had never been there, let alone stopped there.
There are too many tourists, coming and going, laughing and making noise, he is not used to it.
Different from the original liveliness of the town, the liveliness of tourists made him feel uneasy, and the feeling of being surrounded by crowds was very uncomfortable.
But now he has agreed to Lin Chengbu.
He himself was surprised.
Maybe it's because... loneliness, the loneliness behind the smile on Lin Chengbu's face all the time made him a little emotional.
Yuan Wu put on his hat, covered his mask, closed the hatch, and walked slowly to the other side of the Shenqiao with Lin Chengbu.
"Actually, the air is pretty good," Lin Chengbu said, "I've never worn a mask in the city, but you actually wear a mask in the countryside."
"Yeah." Yuan Wu replied without answering his words.
"You like to eat fish, right?" Lin Chengbu asked again.
"Almost," Yuan Wu said, "the spare ribs last time were also good."
"Do you remember?" Lin Chengbu turned his head abruptly.
"Huh?" Yuan Wu also looked at him with deep confusion in his eyes.
Lin Chengbu waited for a few seconds and saw that Yuan Wu did not have any further reaction, so he changed the subject: "My specialty is tofu, I have the opportunity to make it for you."
"What tofu?" Yuan Wu asked.
"It's... secretly made, starting from grinding beans, it's very troublesome," Lin Chengbu smiled, "but it's very delicious, usually it can only be made in the store, with all the tools and ingredients, if it's elsewhere If you can do it in a place where you can…”
"Did you tell me?" Yuan Wu suddenly turned his head and interrupted him.
"What?" Lin Chengbu was stunned.
"To make tofu or something." Yuan Wu said.
Lin Chengbu looked at him before saying, "I said, a long time ago."
"How long?" Yuan Wu asked.
"We..." Lin Chengbu said with some difficulty, "When we first met."
Yuan Wu looked at him and didn't speak any more. The eyes that stayed on his face moved away, and his eyes gradually became a little free.
