Chapter 53: It’s raining and not sold out…
Chapter 53
The Lin siblings ate and chatted while enjoying the ceiling fan, looking very harmonious.
"Have you been to the Chinese medicine shop? Did you ask about the specific procedures for becoming a disciple?" Lin Mujin picked up a piece of oyster omelet for her younger brother.
Lin Muli ate a mouthful and swallowed it before answering, "Not yet. I plan to go after school."
Lin Mujin nodded, "That's fine."
Then he asked, "Do I need to buy any tools to learn Chinese medicine?"
After all, I am not an expert, but I still understand the principle that "if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools."
"Would you like to buy some silver needles?"
She knew about silver needles, which were necessary for learning acupuncture.
Lin Muli was stunned for a moment, "No need to buy it. There are some in the pharmacy."
Lin Mujin stroked his hair and said, "Brother, our family is financially well off now, so let's buy whatever we can. Since you've decided to study Traditional Chinese Medicine, you must study it well, because medicine is unlike anything else; it's related to the patient's life safety."
The responsibility is too great.
Anyway, she had no intention of studying medicine.
Lin Muli nodded, his voice becoming more serious. "Sister, I know."
Lin Mujin smiled and asked, "For you, becoming a disciple and learning the skills is also an important stage in your life. What gift would you like?"
She didn't want to give him a surprise, so her family members asked him what he needed most.
As expected, Lin Muli shook his head, "Sister, I don't need anything."
Lin Mujin glanced at her trouser legs. "Have you grown taller recently?"
Lin Muli grinned, happy because of his sister's concern, "Yes. I am taller than my deskmate now."
Lin Mujin will know what to buy, and then buy her some clothes.
You can also consider watches.
In Hong Kong, watches are more like a status symbol. Rolex, Patek Philippe, etc. are very expensive, with prices ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.
Of course there are also cheaper ones, such as some brands imported from inland areas, which are of good quality.
Even cheaper is what she is wearing now - a student electronic watch.
You can buy it for more than thirty dollars.
She actually also had the idea of changing her watch, and the next one she bought would definitely not be an electronic watch. As for Lin Muli...she'd see when the time came.
These thoughts flashed through my mind and I continued eating.
After dinner, Lin Muli didn’t stay any longer and went to school.
Lin Mujin only walked him to the door, stuffed him with ten yuan in pocket money, watched him reach the corridor entrance, and then went back to the room.
One thing to do in the afternoon: write!
She needs to write more to prepare for the eighth day in advance.
She is motivated by the thought of the generous royalties.
"Why is it dark?"
Lin Mujin subconsciously looked out the window, then stood up suddenly, walked to the window and looked at the sky, "Damn it, it's cloudy!"
Is it going to rain?
But please don’t do that.
In fact, there is a large piece of plastic sheet under the stove of the food truck, which is specially prepared for rain.
At that time, you can simply surround the food truck on three sides to ensure that rainwater does not reach inside.
But the problem is! If it rains, there will be no customers.
My sister prepared twenty kilograms of meat.
Lin Mujin couldn't help but frown.
It seems that I need to buy a refrigerator as soon as possible.
However, the 30% public fund for buying a refrigerator is definitely not enough, so she has to pay for it.
Then use the remaining 30% to pay it back slowly.
Sister has to scratch her head and keep accounts again.
She clasped her hands together and muttered quietly, "Don't go, don't go. If you really want to go, you can hold it until tonight."
But the actual situation was that the sky couldn't hold it back, and within about ten minutes, big raindrops fell down.
"grass!"
I couldn't help but swear.
He walked around the room twice and began to look for his raincoat.
Her uncle bought it for her when she was in school. It’s red with polka dots.
I didn't find the raincoat, but I did find a tattered umbrella.
I opened it and saw that one of the support brackets was broken.
Shaking my head, it was of no use.
Continue looking for a raincoat.
Finally she found it and put it on immediately... Why is it so tight, like wearing a tights.
But the conditions are like this, and we can only overcome them.
She searched for three more long-sleeved shirts, turned off the ceiling fan, locked the door, and went to meet him.
Lin Mujin's trouser legs got wet halfway through the journey, but she didn't pay much attention to it and even bought two umbrellas at a store she passed by.
When she arrived at the market, there were indeed few customers. Even most of the stalls were empty, and it was deserted. This was the first time she had seen such a deserted place.
"Uncle, brother, sister!"
Lin Mujin called for help and patted the plastic sheet.
Soon a corner of the plastic sheet was opened, and Cousin Lin called out, "Come in quickly."
Cousin Lin and Uncle Lin consciously moved back to make room.
Lin Mujin was not in a hurry to squeeze in. She put her umbrella in a corner. She was wearing a raincoat, which was now full of water. She let it drip for a while.
As for the dripping into the food truck, I didn’t care.
After finally taking off her raincoat, Lin Mujin breathed a sigh of relief. "Here are your clothes. Put them on quickly and don't catch a cold."
As Cousin Lin put on her clothes, she asked, "Why are you here?"
Lin Mujin replied, "I was just worried, so I came to take a look. Sister, how much food do we have left?"
Cousin Lin sighed, "There's less than a quarter of the batter, dough, and meat filling left. The sour plum soup and tea eggs are gone. There's still some vegetarian food left, but not much."
Lin Mujin breathed a sigh of relief, "One quarter is not bad."
"What's good about it? What should we do with so much left?" Cousin Lin's tears were welling up in her eyes.
There is so much meat and shrimp, what a waste.
Lin Mujin quickly coaxed, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll find a way."
Cousin Lin wiped her eyes in embarrassment and muttered, "What can I do?"
Cousin Lin also advised, "If we all think about it together, there will always be something."
Lin Mujin said directly. In fact, this idea was something she had thought of halfway. "There are many shops near our house, and many of them have refrigerators. You can pay to store the food overnight. I will go buy a refrigerator tomorrow."
Cousin Lin finally smiled a little, but she still had doubts, "Will they let me go?"
Lin Mujin said, "It's not for free, give me money."
Cousin Lin said, "That's a good idea. I always say there is a way."
Uncle Lin also interjected, "There's nothing to worry about. If it doesn't work, just take it home and add more salt to cook it. It's raining now and it's not that hot, so you can eat it tomorrow."
Lin Mujin gave the old man a thumbs up and said, "This method works."
Then he turned to Cousin Lin and said, "Look, there are a lot of ways to do this. Stop looking so sad, it will make you look ugly."
Cousin Lin glared at her, but her mood had visibly improved.
Lin Mujin looked outside the plastic sheet and said, "Let's leave when the rain stops. There's no one in the market anymore."
There's no need to hold on any longer.
Pointing to the corner, he said, "I also bought two umbrellas."
Cousin Lin began to make arrangements. "Ajin will hold the umbrella, I'll wear a raincoat and push the bike, Dad will stay in the bike and not come out, and Brother will also hold the umbrella and push the bike."
Lin Mujin, Uncle Lin, and Uncle Lin all had no objections.
Everyone started waiting for the rain to stop.
