CHAPTER 19

At noon today, 20 minutes before the end of get off work, Qiao Jingming went to Su Yong's house.

He has a young apprentice who guards the post, and he can skip work under normal circumstances.

Qiao Jingming slipped in through the back door, avoiding the eyes of the neighbors.

"You're here!" Opening the door, Su Yue was full of surprises.

Qiao Jingming nodded, Su Yue stepped aside and handed over a note.

"This is the menu. Every day after dinner, I will make a list of the dishes you want to eat the next day. I usually buy the dishes in advance and put them in the kitchen. You just need to know how to cook them."

After speaking, Qiao Jingming looked at him expectantly. Qiao Jingming took a look. There were two beautiful lines on the paper. One line read: "Pork stewed vermicelli, stir-fried Chinese cabbage."

One line reads: "Sweet and sour pork ribs, braised eggplant."

"Meat for both meals?" seems too extravagant.

These days, even the leaders who sit in the office can't eat meat every day, Su Yue is quite capable.

But think about it, since a salary of 20 a month can be paid out, eating a piece of meat is nothing.

Su Yue bent her lips and smiled: "Well, I'm greedy if I don't eat meat. Except for breakfast, I have to eat some meat for the other two meals. As for the vegetables, my mother-in-law and I are enough. You can make soup with leftovers."

"How about it, shouldn't you be tired? Just two dishes, it won't take you long."

"Hmm." It's quite easy, but it's too expensive.

These days, even if you have an urban household registration, it is no longer an ordinary family to eat two or three meals of meat a month, let alone eat meat twice a day.

It was he who underestimated Su Yue's wallet.

"What's more, you should come before 10:30 in the future, and try to keep the neighbors from seeing you as little as possible." These days, everyone is really free after getting off work, except for family chatter and gossip.

"it is good "

Qiao Jingming put the note into his trouser pocket and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Su Yue's bought vegetables were already placed on the stove. He looked through them, and found that the vegetables were not fresh, the vegetables could barely be seen, the pork was not good, it was pure lean meat, without a trace of fat.

Based on his many years of experience, the meat looks like wood and hard, even if it is cooked, it is not easy to chew or get stuck between the teeth.

It's not a big deal, thank God if you can eat meat these days, who cares whether you can bite or not.

Choosing, washing, and chopping vegetables, the kitchen was very busy, and Su Yue was lying in the room reading a book.

Hearing the constant sound of thud-thump-thump, he dozed off drowsily.

Sure enough, once this person has nothing to do and gets lazy, he will easily get sleepy.

Lunch was ready around eleven twenty, in about forty minutes.

Su Yue heard the knock on the door and opened her eyes dimly.

After getting out of bed and opening the door, they made a mask with Qiao Jingming.

The man still had her pink apron around his waist, which was obviously one size smaller.

Su Yue was wearing an apron, but he was just wearing an apron.

Inexplicably a little funny.

The man looked down at Su Yue's hazy eyes, opened and closed his thin lips. and could smell the faint fragrance of her body when he got close.

His complexion was a little unnatural.

"It's done." Qiao Jingming took two steps back, his voice hoarse.

"It smells so good!" Su Yue rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath and immediately recovered her spirits.

Flying to the living room, two home-cooked dishes with a strong aroma made her stomach growl.

For some reason, thinking of the child with a particularly sensitive nose last time, Su Yue hurried to the door and closed it.

"Grandma, it's time to eat!"

The old lady poked her head in from the balcony, saw two stacks of vegetables on the table, and walked in happily.

"There are meat, vegetables, and white rice!"

It was no longer the boiled vegetables in clear water a few days ago. Seeing the sumptuous meal made the old lady's heart warm, and she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

Su Yue told the old lady: "Don't tell others."

The old lady nodded again and again, her smile was brighter than Hua'er: "Okay, don't tell them! Let's eat it secretly!"

Su Yue laughed, and the two sat down at the dining table, and then greeted Qiao Jingming warmly.

"You didn't eat either, do you want to go together?"

As expected, Qiao Jingming refused: "No, you eat me slowly, I'll go first."

Although it was expected that he would not have dinner with them, when he heard his refusal, a trace of regret actually flashed in his heart.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work! See you later!"

"Ok."

Qiao Jingming untied the apron and hung it on a nail in the kitchen before getting up and leaving the hut.

The sound of footsteps came from the corridor, and disappeared in a short while.

Only Su Yue and the old lady were left in the house.

The delicious food quickly grabbed all of Su Yue's attention, and the old and the young ate ‎‫ر‬‎ their mouths full of greasy food.

The old lady asked her: "Is he still coming to cook for us?"

Even she knew that Qiao

Jingming's cooking was better

than Su Yue's.

Su Yue smiled softly.

"Come on, from now on, he will come and make delicious food for us every day!"

Qiao Jingming's joining made Su Yue feel comfortable physically and mentally. After she didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, Su Yue's small life went on in an orderly manner.

Every day at two o'clock and one line, sweeping the street, going home, sweeping the street, going home... and looking for a job by the way, and that's how the days passed.

If you ignore the annoyance of not being able to find a job, in such a peaceful age without the threat of zombies, this is definitely more comfortable than in the last days.

In order not to make too many mistakes, Su Yue went to the bookstore and bought various books about current national policies and systems to study at home.

It's just that the neighbors became more and more curious about Su Yong, and repeatedly urged Yang Xiuling, who had the best relationship with her, to inquire about her work.

If there is a good job, they still want to introduce gay men of the right age at home or relatives to her!

After all, people are good-looking, kind-hearted and generous, who doesn't like such a good lesbian!

Su Yong knew that sooner or later she would not be able to hide her work, so she simply told Yang Xiuling directly one day, and asked Yang Xiuling to tell everyone.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the small courtyard.

"This... no way, with Su Yue's clothes, that attire, and his extravagant moves, can he be a street sweeper?"

"I don't believe it, don't tell me you're cheating, Xiu Ling'er, hurry up and ask again."

Yang Xiuling was as shocked as everyone else. She had a sad face: "I asked, I asked! I asked several times, just sweeping the street!"

She originally wanted to introduce her nephew Jing Ming to her, but after much deliberation, she never thought that Su Yong was actually a street sweeper!

It would not be an exaggeration to say that everyone's image of her has plummeted.

Even before knowing the news, Su Yong's performance has always been grand and generous, but dislike of the poor and love of the rich exists no matter what era, everyone looks at her now more or less with colored glasses.

Especially Gao Hongmei, the second girl of the Gao family, used to be afraid that she might work in some institution or a certain factory, but she didn't expect that she was just a street sweeper.

She can be regarded as elated, even if Su Yue is still the most beautiful lesbian in the courtyard, but to put it bluntly, she can sweep the streets, so it is impossible for her to graduate from technical secondary school soon, and after graduation, she will be promoted to a factory and sit in an office powerful.

Gao Hongmei's arrogance was instantly contrasted by Su Yue. When she saw Su Yue, she couldn't help but gossip.

"Tsk, there is a street sweeper in our courtyard, how unlucky!"

""

What's wrong with sweeping the streets, she doesn't steal or rob, this woman blatantly dislikes the poor and loves the rich.

If he was a poor peasant, Su Yong might choke her, but his defeat lies in his status as a capitalist, so it's really hard to talk to her carefully.

Forget it, endure the calm for a while, and wait for her to find a job, and then come to deal with you!

However, with this forbearance, strange remarks began to spread in the small courtyard.
