Old customers who had eaten dumplings yesterday, when they heard that there were beef dumplings today, and they were two cents more expensive, all chose beef dumplings, praising them while eating.
"Shu Ping..."
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhao came together.
Li Shuping: "Hey, Sister Wang and Sister Zhao, come and have a bowl of dumplings. It's my treat."
Aunt Wang glared at her in disapproval, "Who asked you to treat us? It's not like we don't have money."
"That's right." Aunt Zhao also agreed with a smile.
They heard from the courtyard that an old sister was selling dumplings at a stall at the entrance of the alley, so they came today to take care of her.
Besides, they really wanted her to make dumplings.
Aunt Wang: "The most taboo thing in business is to treat people you know well and not charge them. Even if the relationship is good, you still have to charge them."
Li Shuping compromised with a smile, "Okay, I won't treat you, I won't treat you. Do you two want beef and celery, or leeks and eggs?"
"There's also beef filling?" Aunt Zhao's eyes widened.
Li Shuping: "I was lucky today. I went to the free market to buy vegetables and happened to see a cow from a large team that had broken its leg and couldn't be cured. They were slaughtered and sold in the market. They were very fresh, so I bought ten to make stuffing."
"Then we can't miss it. Give us a bowl of beef filling."
"Okay, I'll cook a few more for you."
Li Shuping gave them five more each, twenty in a bowl, which was filled to the brim.
When the dumplings were served, she looked at them and said, "Hey, big sister, why do they have so many in one bowl?"
Li Shuping smiled and said, "They are here to take care of my beloved old sisters. I must cook a few more for them, right?"
The dumplings stuffed with beef and celery were tender and fragrant. Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhao ate them in silence.
They originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that their children were at work and their grandchildren were at school, and they were the only ones at home for lunch, so they could come and take care of their old sisters.
But after eating these beef and celery dumplings, I felt a little sorry for my family for eating alone.
So after they finished eating, they went home to get a bowl and buy some dumplings, beef, leeks and eggs.
Steel Plant Canteen
Lin Yong and Lin Guodong came to eat, so they took their lunch boxes and found an empty table to sit down.
As soon as they sat down, Lao Wang turned his head and said to Lin Yong, "Lao Lin, I heard that your ex-wife divorced you and went to set up a stall to sell dumplings?"
Lin Yong ignored him. He didn't know how much he had heard such words so far.
Others in the cafeteria also looked over.
"If you ask me, this is your fault. They say a night of marriage brings a hundred nights of love. You are already a married couple in your twenties. How can you watch her get up early and stay up late, and go out in public to set up a stall? As a husband, you should be more generous and persuade her, coax her, or let her go home."
"That's right. A night of love brings a hundred nights of affection. Fight at the head of the bed but make up at the foot of the bed."
"Someone has to bow his head first. Can we really be separated for a lifetime and never reconcile?"
His friends also followed suit.
Lin Yong stiffened his neck and said, "She was the one who wanted to divorce me. She also abandoned her husband and didn't want our family. Why should I try to persuade her? She got divorced and got lost selling things on the street. That was her own fault."
Can you say that you have tried to persuade him?
Of course not. If you knew that we had tried to persuade her but Li Shuping would rather set up a street stall outside than go home, you would really laugh to death.
Not to mention that everyone knows that Lin Yong is unwilling to bow his head first, and he can also maintain his dignity as a man.
"Hey, Lao Lin, there are dozens of couples here, just lower your head first."
Lin Yong: "..."
Didn't you bow your head?
"Why should we men bow our heads?" Someone expressed his dissent. "This kind of quarrel with men over women is just beating the young. Doesn't she insist on getting a divorce? If she divorces and we men raise her, what kind of life will she have?"
"Old Lin, you must not try to coax her. She abandons her husband and doesn't care about the boys or girls in the family. What's the point of her?"
These words touched Lin Yong's heart. Ever since he divorced Li Shuping, many people had said that he was wrong, as if it was Lin Yong's fault that caused his wife to divorce him.
When they were joking about this, they all advised her to go and admit her mistake to Li Shuping first, so as to persuade and coax her back.
But what's wrong?
It was clearly Li Shuping who was unreasonable and abandoned her husband. The fault was her, Li Shuping!
"Old Lin, just listen to me. With your conditions and salary, if you want to find another one, there will be many young widows willing to marry you. If you really look for another one, your ex-wife will be anxious." Zhao Lai said with certainty.
Old Liu, who lived in the same courtyard as Lin Yong, glared at Zhao Lai and said, "Zhao Lai, don't make stupid decisions all day long."
"What kind of nonsense am I talking about? If you don't believe me, Lao Lin, just pretend to find someone to try. Your ex-wife will be very anxious."
Lin Yong lowered his eyelids, thinking back to when he was young, he was just close to a worker-peasant-soldier university student who came to the factory to study, and Li Shuping was so anxious that she went to the factory leader to find a new master to teach that university student.
Because she felt embarrassed after finding the factory leader, she lived in the factory dormitory for half a month. At that time, she often came to bring her food and begged her to go back, for fear that she would leave her and find another woman.
So this woman still loves you very much and cares about you very much. If you really pretend to find someone...
Lin Guodong didn't know what his father was thinking, but he was annoyed when he heard these words from the factory. Whenever he mentioned his mother, he thought she was making fun of them, and he had more complaints about her.
Lin Xiaoyu held the steamed rice lunch box and lined up in front of the bone soup window.
The so-called bone soup dish is made by using large bones to make soup and cook vegetables. It costs two cents a spoonful, and if you are lucky, you can get a little bit of minced meat.
"Hey, isn't this Lin Xiaoyu? Do you have money to buy bone soup today?" Zhao Siyu and a few girls from the class came over.
Lin Xiaoyu frowned and ignored her.
She had never offended Zhao Siyu, but for some reason, Zhao Siyu always liked to laugh at her and pick on her.
Zhao Siyu's lackey Zhou Meng said: "How can she have money? Her family never gives her pocket money. Her shoes are so worn out that her toes are still worn out."
"Ahem..." Lin Xiaoyu lowered her throat and stretched out her feet wearing new shoes.
A student saw it and said, "Hey, Lin Xiaoyu, the shoes you are wearing are the latest model of Warrior, right? I went to the state-owned store last week and they cost 20 yuan."
Wang Meng: "How is that possible!"
It is really the latest model of Huili.
Lin Xiaoyu raised her hand and lowered it proudly. "It is indeed the latest model of Warrior. My mother took me to the state-owned store to buy it last weekend."
"Your mother is so good to you. I wanted it, but my mother wouldn't buy it for me." 땢xue said with envy.
Zhao Siyu bit her lip and winked at Wang Meng.
The latter understood and raised his voice: "Your mother bought it for you? You must be lying."
"You used to tell me often that your mother always made you work, that she only cared about your two brothers, that she didn't like you at all, and that she never gave you pocket money."
Lin Xiaoyu glared at Wang Meng angrily. She had been in the same class and desk mate with Wang Meng since junior high school. She considered Wang Meng a friend, so she told her a lot of her own affairs.
But after entering high school, Wang Meng changed. She became Zhao Siyu's follower and often told her things she had said to her in the past to laugh at her.
Wang Meng: "Did you steal money from home and buy it yourself? Be careful or your mother will beat you to death if she finds out."
