The waiting time is indeed excruciating. I think this may be the reason why many men are unwilling to go shopping with their girlfriends, especially in situations that they don't like.
Within an hour, the three of us drank half a bottle of vodka. Even Zhang Ying, who drank the least, turned crimson.
"I'll get some fruit and snacks."
Zhang Ying stood up and walked to the bar again, followed closely by Chujiu, forgetting to get two more bottles of drinks.
High-consumption places must be different from others.
I stared at the watermelon in the fruit plate. I can actually eat watermelon this season. I have never seen it before.
Zhang Ying told us that this plate of watermelon was a gift from the proprietress. She happened to be discussing something important with a customer and asked us to wait a little longer.
"By the way, Chujiu, do you think this matter can be solved easily tonight? Don't forget that we have to go to the hospital to find Xiaobai tomorrow morning."
I suddenly remembered that tomorrow is the first day of vacation, and I promised to go shopping with Xiaobai.
Chujiu stretched out his palm and shook it at me, and I nodded in relief.
"Ah? It takes five days? That's fine, it's not too long. It just so happens that you guys have a holiday, otherwise it will delay your studies."
Zhang Ying probably only saw the five slender fingers of Chujiu, saying that she would stay with us during these five days.
"Hammer! What the hell are you talking about five days? I obviously said it would be solved with just one slap, okay?"
Chujiu stared angrily, very dissatisfied with Zhang Ying's doubts about his strength. If he was angry, he would be hungry easily, and he might have to eat something delicious later.
Zhang Ying, who was full of surprises, touched Chujiu's head and promised that she would definitely buy something she wanted to eat when she was on her way to the boss's parents' house later.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I'm really busy today. These are imported oranges. Please try them."
A woman in a dark red dress squeezed and sat next to Zhang Ying. When she saw Chujiu and I, she was stunned for a moment and then laughed. Sure enough, she was as young and promising as Zhang Ying's sister said.
The booming business of the bar must be attributed to the proprietress. Her ability to conceal her true emotions in the blink of an eye is amazing. Among strangers, she was the first person to be surprised for just a moment when she saw my age with Chujiu.
"You can just call me Sister Jingjing like Zhang Ying. What do you call the two young men?"
The landlady picked up the oranges she had just brought and stuffed one into Chujiu and I's hands.
Regarding the boss lady, my first impression was not that she was very beautiful as Zhang Ying said. Perhaps because of the makeup, I felt that she was more coquettish.
The first impression of her is her figure. I believe that anyone who sees Jingjing at first sight will first be attracted by her proud and exaggerated figure. She is indeed as good as a cow, but her appearance is slightly worse than that of a cow.
After introducing herself, Chujiu peeled off the orange in her hand and asked Jingjing neatly, "If there is nothing else, you can leave now. There are still things to do tomorrow, so you can't sleep in."
"Ah? Let's go now? Master, what I mean is not to confirm whether it is really there or not. There is that."
Jingjing, who had just sat next to Zhang Ying without saying a few words and whose buttocks were still hot from sitting, did not expect that Chujiu would show up like this, and she panicked and asked what else she needed to prepare.
"What else do you need to confirm? It's all written on your face, old pervert."
Jingjing couldn't react for a moment to the old pervert in Chujiu's mouth. She was stunned for a long time. She suddenly remembered something and screamed. Only when she saw the strange looks from all around did she realize her gaffe.
At this time, the rotating highlight of the bar hit Jingjing's face. I was also shocked. Yintang was so dark. I guess even ordinary people can tell that she has been a little uneasy recently.
"Okay, then let's go to my house and have a look. It's not too far from here, only about ten minutes away."
Jingjing stood up and took exaggerated swaying steps, greeting the passing guests one by one.
The landlady told us that the distance from home was not far, so we could just walk there instead of driving.
"Sister, I want to eat stinky tofu."
Passing by a street stall, Chujiu saw a stinky tofu stall surrounded by several young people. They grabbed Zhang Ying's arm and shook her desperately.
A trace of suspicion once again flashed in the eyes of the landlady Jingjing, but she quickly covered it up easily.
Chujiu is getting more and more over the top now. In the past, when I went out to do things, I still paid a little attention to my image as a superior person.
"Sister Jingjing, do you want to eat stinky tofu?"
Zhang Ying asked the landlady with a helpless smile, but the landlady said she couldn't stand the taste and declined.
In the end, Zhang Ying bought three portions of stinky tofu, and she also held one portion in her hand. She hadn't had this thing for a long time, and she had been particularly fond of it a few years ago.
"Sister, can't you walk slower to accompany your sister?"
Jingjing scolded slightly angrily, I knew she probably had something to say to Zhang Ying alone.
The two of them were whispering behind each other, and I could faintly hear the words "rest assured" and "absolutely reliable" in Zhang Ying's voice.
I glared at Chujiu fiercely, and Chujiu curled his lips and whispered that he was really hungry.
In twenty minutes, we came to a residential area. The houses in this area were not orthodox villas, but more like self-built houses in the countryside of Gu Yongnian.
"Although the houses here are far away from the city center, they are all exclusive and single-family houses. I originally wanted to have a small yard."
The landlady quickened her pace to catch up with Chujiu and I who had been walking in front, and she seemed to be preparing to show us the way.
"Is that your house?"
Chujiu threw the paper cup in his hand into the trash can on the roadside and pointed at the third house not far away seemingly casually.
"Well."
The change in the landlady's expression was indescribably funny. In just a moment, she went from surprise to hesitation to shock. In short, she never showed any doubt again.
The proprietress glanced at Zhang Ying beside her, who was covering her mouth and laughing wildly, and nodded awkwardly. She was indeed young and promising. She couldn't believe there was such a young master before.
The specific address of the landlady was not mentioned at all along the way. Although she had a good relationship with Zhang Ying, Zhang Ying had never been here before.
Chujiu's casual exposure of his hand really shocked her.
"I told you a long time ago and you still don't believe me. My mood was not much different from yours at that time. I thought this guy Chujiu was a liar."
While the landlady and Zhang Ying were joking quietly, Chujiu looked at me with a proud expression.
Seeing Chujiu's face, my first thought was that I hadn't dealt with him for a few days, and my skin was probably starting to itch again.
When they were about to reach the intersection of the house, the landlady stopped and stood under the streetlight and rummaged through her bag for the keys to her house.
"Everyone, wait a minute. I'll make something fun for you. I guarantee you'll enjoy it."
Chujiu shook off Zhang Ying who was holding his arm with a smirk on his face, and took out a piece of talisman paper from the small cloth bag at his waist.
