Lín Wēi only realized when she died that having a sister-favoring mother would cause so much damage to her family.
Her father fell from a great height and died. Her younger brother went mis...
However--
Those two mischievous kids still sneaked over.
When the two twins stood at her station and greeted her with smiles as they called her "Sister Weiwei," Lin Wei was truly speechless.
"How did you two get here? I'm not riding very fast, I didn't see you the whole way. Did your mom not stop you since she's off today?"
The two brothers exchanged a glance, their faces full of pride. "My mom was taking a nap and didn't even notice that we'd run off. Besides, we come here all the time. After we saw you leave, we followed the path all the way here. As soon as you parked your car, we were there."
"Wow, you two are really something." After saying that, she added, "And you're really brave too."
But since she was already there, she wasn't going to send the two children away now.
"Alright, since you're here, you can help me out."
She took out four old enamel mugs and filled each with a bowl of rice.
First, cover the white rice with a layer of meat gravy, then top it with a layer of cabbage stir-fried in lard.
Finally, he added two spoonfuls of braised pork, an egg, and drizzled on some gravy before handing them to the three children in front of him.
Lin Wei said, "You can't just eat for free. I'm giving you three a task: take your enamel mugs to the stock market building and eat there. Don't eat at the main entrance, or they'll kick you out. Just eat by the flower bed there; it'll taste better that way. If anyone asks, just point them here."
"Understood, I guarantee I will complete the mission."
Just before Su Sijin was about to leave, he turned back and ran to her side, whispering, "Sister Weiwei, do you think it's okay if I take the food inside and walk around for a bit? Wouldn't that be more effective? But I'm worried they'll spill my food on me."
"If you can get in, I'll pour you another bowl if you spill it."
Su Sijin left with sparkling eyes.
Turning around, the three children went to the area in front of the stock market building.
Under Su Sijin's arrangement, the two children each occupied a corner of the flower bed on either side, and then he carried the bowl and was about to enter the stock market building.
As expected, security personnel stopped the person.
But no one knows what he said to the security guard, because the security guard actually stood there and let him carry the food inside.
Lin Wei was quite excited when she saw it. "This kid really has a way with things."
-
About six or seven minutes later, Su Sijin came out carrying a bowl of rice.
Several adults also came out at the same time.
Seeing Su Sijin point in her direction—
Lin Wei knew that business had come in.
"Did you buy that kid's lunchbox from here? I wasn't hungry, but the smell of it made my mouth water. How much is a bowl?"
"A bowl costs 8 yuan, and it includes rice, vegetables, meat, and an egg. It's not expensive."
In 1990, a boxed lunch costing 8 yuan was not expensive at all. Not to mention that it was made with high-quality ingredients, the prices of that era were not much different from those of later generations.
"The same portion size as that child's?"
"The meat and eggs are the same amount, but you can add more rice and vegetables."
"Give me a bowl, let me taste it."
Okay.
Lin Wei took out a disposable lunchbox and filled a large bowl for the other person, following the same order of serving the rice.
Seeing that the portions were plentiful, everyone in line felt relieved.
"This quantity is good, and although 8 yuan is not cheap, it's still a good deal."
"Please try it. It's made by a professional chef, and I guarantee it will taste great."
The man tasted it and immediately showed an expression of approval, "Delicious, really delicious. I was worried about not having enough food in this area before. Will you come again in the future?"
"Come on, come every day. Every day we'll have one meat dish and one vegetable dish, but we'll vary the dishes. Otherwise, you'll get tired of eating the same dish every day."
-
With Su Sijin's help, several boxed meals were sold without spending much of his salary.
After seeing those people off, the stall instantly became deserted, but Lin Wei wasn't in a hurry. Lunchtime hadn't officially started yet, and business would definitely pick up soon.
She had intended to take advantage of the break to quickly finish her lunch.
But to everyone's surprise, the people who had just bought the boxed lunches went into the stock market building with their food, and soon a large crowd arrived, crowding the small tricycle.
"Everyone, line up, line up!"
Fortunately, there weren't many types of ingredients, so we could serve them one at a time, which prevented us from getting flustered.
Unexpectedly, after only a few boxed meals had been sold, Zhang Min arrived from not far away, cursing and swearing.
Seeing the three children eating safely and peacefully at the entrance of the stock market, while Lin Wei was tied up with her own things, she walked over to her stall without a second thought.
"I'm so sorry, Vivi. These two kids sneaked out in the blink of an eye. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
"No, no, your two children have been a great help to me."
"Really?" Zhang Min was a little surprised, but now was not the time to talk about this. She put down her bag and asked hurriedly, "Is there anything I can help you with, Aunt Zhang? I'm already here, so please don't be shy."
"Aunt Zhang, could you please collect the money for me?"
As she spoke, Lin Wei handed the bag from her waist to Zhang Min.
Zhang Min was clearly taken aback. She hadn't expected that Lin Wei would trust her so much, even though they had only known each other for a short time, and would entrust her with the bag containing the money.
And considering the weight of this bag and the long queue in front of it—
She knew that Lin Wei's business would definitely not lose money.
-
With the two of them busy working, the food in all four buckets was gone in no time.
Zhang Min had clearly not eaten when she arrived. Seeing that there was only one serving left, she immediately stopped the meal and gave the whole serving to Zhang Min.
"Aunt Zhang, I specially saved some for you. You must be starving since you didn't have lunch when you came."
