Chapter 450 Parallel Time and Space (V)
Lin Sujuan listened patiently, nodding from time to time.
Seeing that Lin Xiaotong's face was rounder than before, he felt happy.
She always hopes that all children coming out of the welfare home can have a good future.
Although the starting point of life is not very good, flowers can still bloom even on the muddiest path.
The two chatted for a long time until Lin Sujuan felt sleepy and Lin Xiaotong got up and left.
Before leaving, the two made an appointment to meet next time.
"Mother Lin, I'll leave first. You should have a good rest."
"Go ahead and focus on your work. Don't worry about me all the time."
Lin Sujuan smiled, waved her hand, slowly sat up and waited for the people to leave.
Lin Xiaotong took the garbage downstairs and looked at the time. It was already half past ten.
It's almost October and the weather is still a bit hot.
While walking under the shade of a tree with an umbrella, the leg under my skirt was accidentally hit by the tail of a big orange dog sleeping on its belly.
This cat has a shiny yellow coat, and one can tell at a glance that it has a good diet.
Maybe it’s because it’s often fed by kind merchants around it, so it’s not afraid of strangers at all and doesn’t hide when it sees people.
He can only smile slowly with his eyes squinting, and is used to rolling around and making a fuss.
Sometimes, if we encounter soft-hearted elementary school students, they will be fed sausages.
People living in small towns are all slow-tempered, and even cats are no exception.
It’s still early today and it’s not time for dinner yet, but the roadside stalls have already been set up.
Some of the uncles and aunts who set up stalls like to push a cart over, while others like to set up a big pot and a small stove.
Some old men even picked up a small stool and sat under the shade of the tree, which was considered as reserving a seat.
Various wonderful scents intertwined together, floating around the tip of the nose.
It seems to be saying: "Come and eat me~"
Lin Xiaotong walked over unconsciously and ordered a piece of plum cake that was so sweet that it made your teeth turn off.
I endured the heat and took a bite, then turned my head to meet the expectant eyes of the old man selling beef pancakes.
When he came out, he had plum blossom cake in one hand, beef sesame cake in the other, and a small bag of cold noodles hanging on his wrist.
Sweat started to form on the tip of my nose while I was eating, so I found a small noodle soup restaurant and sat down.
The fan above his head was blowing, and a little kid came over with a piece of paper in his hand.
With a watermelon-shaped head, he asked, "Sister, what do you want to eat?"
The shop is not big, but it is very clean. You can see the uncle busy inside from the outside.
I looked up at the things on the side.
"Give me some noodles with soybean paste, please. A small bowl with extra cucumber shreds."
"Okay."
Watermelon Head ran away with a clatter, and stood on tiptoe to hand the note to his mother.
Lin Xiaotong heated the dishes with warm water and took out a can of Coke from the refrigerator.
I took a tissue to wrap the jar, unscrewed it and took a sip of the happy water.
I borrowed a small bowl from Xiguatou, put a bag on it, and transferred the cold skin out.
We continued to eat the beef pie. The pie made by the old man had a thin crust, large filling and was very juicy.
Take another bite of the plum cake, it’s sweet, with a small piece of taro paste in it, which is dense and delicate.
It was just a simple meal to fill my stomach and the noodles were ready.
He took a sip of Coke to clear his throat, then picked up his chopsticks and started mixing the noodles, trying to get every noodle covered with minced meat topping.
The small portion of noodles with soybean paste didn’t have a lot of noodles, but it did have a lot of shredded cucumber and carrot, which made it quite refreshing.
I picked up some cucumber shreds with chopsticks and threw them into the bowl of cold noodles, and ran to the boss lady to get some coriander.
Pour a little vinegar, stir it, and the simple cold skin dish is ready.
This noodle shop is an old one, it has been there since she was in high school.
I heard from my classmates that this place started out as a small mobile stall. The owner has good skills, the food tastes authentic, and the prices are affordable.
It gradually became a small shop, and when I came here this year, I found that the place had become a little bigger.
Lin Xiaotong ate slowly.
When it was time for dinner, more and more people came into the store.
Everyone stood in the aisle with their heads tilted back, stroking their chins and thinking about what to eat for lunch.
Some strong uncles ordered a big bowl of noodles and sat on the bench with their legs stretched out.
He took out a small bag of fried peanuts wrapped in a plastic bag from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Throw one into your mouth and chew it, then turn around and ask the boss for a bottle of cold beer.
He picked it up and knocked it against the leg of the bench, and the beer bottle cap flew off.
Most of the time, a whole family comes to eat. Children are not patient enough and will start crying with their mouths open after waiting for a long time.
The uncle next door who was drinking beer from a bottle picked up a piece of cucumber and handed it to the child before the child started crying.
The child opened his eyes wide, no longer caring about crying, and began to observe the cold green ribbon in his hand with pursed lips.
This uncle is such a good person, Lin Xiaotong thought.
After all, it can protect the people in the store from being disturbed by the evil sound.
After drinking the last sip of happy water, he wiped his mouth, sat down to relax, and then stood up and left.
Throw the oil paper bag of snacks into the trash can.
After coming out, a wave of heat hit my face. I raised my hand to block the slightly bright sunlight, walked under the shade of the trees, and walked all the way back to the small house.
When I got home, I had almost digested the food. I stood on the balcony and stretched my arms. I saw the little kids downstairs who were playing happily with their butts sticking out.
I feel sleepy easily after eating. I yawn and go to my room to take a short nap. When I draw the curtains, the room becomes dark.
Curled up in bed, I closed my eyes and randomly picked a little dinosaur with a crooked mouth from a pile of dolls at the bedside.
These dolls are all the prizes she won in the "grab the doll" game. It's like flipping the plate to decide which one to take to bed every day, and she just goes with the flow.
He patted the little dinosaur's head gently, held it in his arms, and took it to sleep obediently.
The alarm clock rang, he scratched his hair and got up, pinched the little dinosaur's mouth with evil intentions, and started to abuse it again.
I finally got up, poured a glass of water, stood on the balcony and looked into the distance.
On a building opposite, a family has a small balcony filled with flowers and plants, some branches hanging down under the railings.
When the wind blew, she could also smell the faint scent of jasmine.
She plans to have a large balcony in her future house and plant a few pots of colorful tomatoes, which are both beautiful and delicious.
Looking up at the sky, the autumn sky was exceptionally clear and blue, and a cloud appeared without me noticing.
It is fluffy and soft, clinging to the roof, as if you could hold it in your palm.
I immediately picked up my phone and took a picture. The clean color tone required almost no adjustment.
Lin Xiaotong suddenly became interested and set up an easel on the balcony.
Fix the drawing paper with masking paper, pick up the pencil and start to slowly draw the lines.
The room was quite quiet, with only the rustling of wiring being heard.
I had a cup of jasmine cold-brewed tea at hand, the screen window was open, and gusts of warm wind blew into my ears, swirling playfully around me.
Away from the hustle and bustle, an afternoon slowly slips away between my pens.
