What should I do if I don’t know the phone number?
I had to go find out if Lin Cheng had it.
Ye Qianyu: "Your brother has a notebook with numbers. I'll go see if there's anyone you're dating. By the way, what's your date's name?"
When he came back to his senses, Lin Lu gradually felt embarrassed.
She hasn't even made it to Song Chen yet, but she's already claiming to be his girlfriend. No one is so proactive as her.
"Song Chen."
Ye Qianyu slowly savored the two names and thought, "Song Chen, Lin Cheng, they sound like your brother's names."
Lin Lu: "Our names were all given by a cultured 'sir' in the village."
Ye Qianyu is the only daughter in the family. Although she had playmates when she was a child, she played alone most of the time and was very bored.
Hearing Lin Lu say this, a picture of several children growing up and playing together suddenly appeared in his mind. "I envy you so much."
"What's there to envy?" Lin Lu smiled.
You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and the people who look at the scenery are just looking at you.
I got out of bed and followed her to the small living room to look for her phone number.
Lin Cheng's notebook for recording phone numbers was placed in the drawer of the living room. There were numbers from various people in it, but he couldn't find the name Song Chen.
Lin Lu was discouraged and sighed dejectedly, "Sister, don't look for him anymore. He always writes back and never lets me know his address, saying it's confidential. He probably doesn't even have a phone number."
Ye Qianyu searched twice more to confirm that there was indeed no "Song Chen" and that she had not missed it, then she closed the notebook.
"Is your partner a soldier?" Only soldiers need to keep everything confidential.
Lin Lu: "Yes, I've been there for five or six years. I'm in the border area now."
So ambitious?
Ye Qianyu's family also has elders in the army, but if the younger generation wants to get promoted, they really need to work hard and make achievements.
"It will be fine in a few years. Once you get through these ten years, he will be transferred back and you can see each other often." She comforted Lin Lu.
"Well, he said that if I came to Kyoto to study, he would try to transfer here, so I signed up to go there. I just..." She lowered her head and looked at her fingertips.
"Having a nightmare about him?"
"Well, I dreamed that his face was covered in blood." My heart ached.
Ye Qianyu patted her on the back: "It's okay, it will be okay. How do you usually contact each other?"
Lin Lu answered truthfully, "He always wrote back letters, but he hasn't sent any in a while."
"Maybe he went on a mission, and the place he went to was quite far away, which is why he was delayed."
Lin Lu nodded: "Maybe."
My heart still feels heavy, as if it is being tightly grasped by a big hand, and breathing is a luxury.
Ye Qianyu placed her hands on her shoulders and supported her: "Come on, I'll take you shopping and buy you some dresses so you can dress up beautifully."
——
Although Ye Qianyu has a good living condition, she likes to go to street stalls and is good at bargaining.
Just like now.
The green polka dot dress she was holding was priced at 20 yuan by the owner, but she bargained for half. "Can you give us a discount, sister? How about 10 yuan? We want to choose more."
"No, look at our material. It's good material. It's not like other clothes that cut your skin. Our clothes are very comfortable."
"Give me some more."
Lin Lu was not very good at bargaining because she rarely went shopping for clothes alone. Li Xianglian usually took her with her, so she never had to do anything.
So, now I can only watch Ye Qianyu's price increase from 10 yuan to 10.5.
"I'll add 50 cents at most. I'm buying it from you sincerely. If you think it doesn't fit, then there's nothing I can do. Let's go somewhere else. There are cheaper ones over there. I'll buy you a few more."
Lin Lu knew this trick, "Okay, sister."
The two of them silently counted in their hearts: 3...2...1
"Okay, okay, 10.5 is 10.5, let's see what else is available."
Lin Lu looked at Ye Qianyu. She raised her eyebrows at Lin Lu, and then Lin Lu gave her a thumbs up, silently praising: Awesome.
Ye Qianyu was even more proud.
Four more were selected, three of which were for Lin Lu.
Buying one is fine, but four is too many. Lin Lu waved her hand: "Too many, sister, just buy one."
The boss teased and joked: "Little girl, you are so silly. You can just be happy that your sister can buy it for you. Others want it but can't get it."
Ye Qianyu gestured with the skirts in front of and behind Lin Lu one by one: "That's right, you're going to college soon, so of course you should dress like an adult. You're so beautiful, you need to dress up, otherwise it would be a waste of the gift God gave you."
Lin Lu felt embarrassed by the compliment and lowered her head, mumbling softly, "You're pretty, too."
The boss folded the green skirts they had just chosen and put them in a bag. He glanced at the two of them and said, "I see you two sisters don't look alike at all. One looks like dad and the other like mom?"
Ye Qianyu: "No, I'm his sister-in-law. Her brother looks more like her. He gave us money to dress up."
The boss nodded and said, "Okay, listen to your sister-in-law and choose a few more clothes. Those college students like to come to me to buy clothes."
Lin Lu couldn't back down too much from his brother and sister's kindness. It would be embarrassing if he refused too many times.
Remember the kindness they have shown you and repay them double in the future.
Lin Lu has made up her mind. After playing with her sister for a few days, she also wants to find a part-time job so that she can have enough money for tuition and living expenses when school starts, which can reduce the burden on her family.
In order to help the brother and sister go to college, the old couple and their mother also made a lot of sacrifices. Many families in the village have started to repair their houses, but theirs remains the same.
Because I have no money.
After buying the skirt, Ye Qianyu blinked twice at Lin Lu, threw her a coquettish glance, and then took Lin Lu to a lingerie store that looked very high-end.
Lin Lu blushed as soon as she entered and didn't know where to look.
Ye Qianyu was amused and poked her face: "Sister, you are so innocent. How come you blush even when you come to a lingerie store?"
Lin Lu coughed twice and remained calm: "I'm not shy."
Ye Qianyu: "Take a look, choose two sets of what you like to wear."
The underwear Lin Lu was wearing was all made of torn cloth by Li Xianglian. The style was simple and ordinary. She had been wearing it for two years and it had become loose.
Seeing so many novel styles of underwear for the first time, she seemed a little overwhelmed and didn't know how to choose underwear.
Even the top students in college have a day when they fail.
A clerk came and asked Lin Lu, "Just take a look. What size do you wear? I'll get your size for you."
Lin Lu didn't know what size she was wearing.
Ye Qianyu: "She's still growing, so you can measure her now so the size is more accurate."
"Okay, little sister, take a look and see what style you like."
Lin Lu didn't know how to choose, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at Ye Qianyu. When she saw the small cloth thing in her hand, her face turned even redder.
