Su Lan did not stay in the box for too long. She drank tea instead of wine, toasted everyone, said a few words of congratulations, and left under the protection of Zhang Tan.
Returning to the box, Zhang Tan received a WeChat message from Su Lan despite everyone's gossip.
"Don't drink too much, don't drive after drinking, safety first."
At around 11 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Tan returned to Little Red Horse Academy and found that Xiaobai was not there. He thought she had been picked up by her aunt early again, so he didn't care. He washed up and went to bed. He drank some wine at night and felt sleepy.
In the next two days, Zhang Tan didn't see Xiaobai coming to the academy. This was strange. He had a bad feeling that Xiaobai wouldn't come when he was due, right?
He hurriedly found Teacher Xiaoliu, and Teacher Xiaoliu said: "It's not that she's not coming, she's asking for leave."
Zhang Tan breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Are you asking for leave? What's the matter?"
Teacher Xiaoliu shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. Her aunt asked for leave for her."
"Okay." Zhang Tan asked again, "Will you come tomorrow?"
Teacher Xiaoliu said: "She should be here. I haven't received a call from her aunt yet, unless she talks to us at night."
Liuliu and Cheng Cheng came over hand in hand and asked: "Boss Zhang, where is Xiaobai? We haven't seen Xiaobai for several days."
The timid Cheng Cheng took courage and asked in a low voice: "Boss Zhang, where is Xiaobai? I miss Xiaobai so much."
Zhang Tan comforted them: "Xiaobai will be here tomorrow."
Xiaobai didn't come to the academy, and Zhang Tan's house suddenly became a lot deserted. The other little friends didn't dare to come without Xiaobai's guidance. Liuliu wanted to come, but she was watched closely.
The crickets in the corner were beeping all night long. The noise made Zhang Tan sleep poorly. In a daze, it was already dawn and he had to go to work.
The bustling West Chang'an Street is already very lively, and the quiet urban villages are also full of life.
"Come on Brother Si~~~"
"Come on, Sister Si~~~~"
“Do you want to eat fruit??”
As usual, Zhang Tan went out to the right and drove to the parking lot of the village in the city.
But the sound from behind made him stop.
This voice is so familiar, Trump’s little milky voice, Guawazi!
He looked back and saw people going to work at the intersection connecting Chengzhong Village and West Chang'an Street. Many of them stopped in front of a stall to ask for breakfast.
The sound of Trump's little baby came from the front of the stall, where the little one was jumping up and down, like the rising sun, full of enthusiasm.
"Go to work quickly, don't be late."
"Bye Brother Si~~"
Zhang Tan rubbed his eyes to make sure it was not an illusion. Isn't this Xiaobai?
Why did Guawazi come here so early in the morning?
Next to her, looking at the back, is Malanhua.
what happened?
He walked over and saw a sign hanging on the stall that read "Little White Pancake Fruit".
As I got closer, I was sure it was Xiaobai and her aunt, selling pancakes and fruits here.
Business seems to be very good. Many office workers pass by here and stop to order one for breakfast. It is fast, filling and cheap.
Malanhua concentrated on making pancakes and fruit, while Xiaobai enthusiastically greeted the people passing by, "brothers and sisters, don't be late and your wages will be deducted..." He looked like a familiar little magpie, chirping happily.
, many office workers who were originally expressionless couldn't help but smile when they saw her.
Occasionally, someone would take the initiative to say hello to her and say "Good morning, novice."
Apparently, this is not their first time at the stall, and they already have acquaintances.
Could it be that since you haven’t been to the academy these past few days, you’ve just been doing this?
"Have some egg pancakes."
"Brother Si is here, eh? Ha! It's Boss Zhang."
Xiaobai recognized him immediately, his eyes widened, and then he narrowed his eyes into two crescent moons, smiled sweetly, beat his aunt beside him crazily, and shouted excitedly: "Auntie, it's Boss Zhang here, Zhang
Boss~~”
"I see, why are you beating me, Guawazi?"
"Let me show you Boss Zhang."
"Then why are you beating me? My hand shook and I almost poured all the chili sauce."
"Auntie, make a big pancake for Boss Zhang."
"I know, I'm doing it."
Malanhua asked Zhang Tan what flavor he wanted.
Xiaobai enthusiastically introduced to him the different types, such as Mangmang, penis, and legs, as if he was very familiar with the business.
However, Zhang Tan didn't understand either.
Translated by Malanhua, it says there are chicken tenders, ham sausage, tenderloin, etc.
Zhang Tan asked for ham sausage.
When Malanhua was making pancakes and fruits, Zhang Tan asked: "Sister Ma, aren't you working on the construction site? When did you start making pancakes and fruits?"
Xiaobai heard this and said, "Boss Zhang, my aunt is crying."
"Guawazi, what are you talking about? You can teach your butt to blossom."
Piapiapia~~Xiao Bai’s butt was spanked three times.
The little man was covering his little butt, pouting, grinding his teeth angrily, and the will-o'-the-wisps were rising up, looking like a cute and fierce person who said, "If I don't take revenge, I'm not a human being."
"Where are you staying?! If you stare at me again, I'll put you in a pancake."
Malanhua's harsh words were more effective, scaring Xiaobai into silence and sulking alone.
Zhang Tan saw that she looked very unhappy, so he took out a keychain from his backpack and gave it to Xiaobai.
There was a space trooper hanging on the keychain. Xiaobai was very curious about it and couldn't put it down, touching it and laughing.
"Which one is this?" Xiaobai asked.
"Buzz Lightyear."
"What is a introduction?"
"Space Rangers lighting up the universe."
Seeing that Xiaobai was still confused, Zhang Tanyan said succinctly: "That's the police uncle."
"Oh, I know. Hey, hey, his claws look like my aunt's, right?"
Malanhua took a moment to take a look. He had a big body, a round waist and a thick neck, and cursed: "Looks like a ghost! I'm much prettier."
"Hoohoho~~~" Xiaobai snickered.
This is really annoying.
Zhang Tan noticed that Xiaobai had a red rope tied to his wrist, and the end of the rope was tied to the stall.
"Xiaobai, why do you tie a rope on your hand?"
Xiaobai said angrily: "What a bad thing my aunt did! Huh! It's so black, I'm so angry that I'm going to be a ghost."
Malanhua said: "Who told you to run around? I'm doing it for your own good. You're such a melon. You were almost lost yesterday."
Because Xiaobai is very active and likes to run around, she almost lost her yesterday. Malanhua came up with this idea and tied her to the stall. She can't be lost.
While making pancakes and fruits, Malanhua said succinctly that she was no longer working on the construction site, and the contractor dismissed her because she was too slow.
"Boss Zhang, your pancakes are ready."
What a big pancake fruit, twice as big as the ordinary ones. It is indeed a big pancake fruit.
Although there are many things I want to ask Ma Lanhua, I have to rush to work now and I don’t have time to chat with him. He is so busy that the morning should be the best time for business.
Let’s talk about it tonight.
"Thank you, I'm leaving then. Bye, Xiaobai."
"Bye, Boss Zhang, come again." Xiaobai waved reluctantly.
Zhang Tan stopped and asked, "Sister Ma, will Xiaobai come to the academy today?"
"will come."
He hesitated for a moment and then said: "If you have any difficulties in life in the future, you can tell me and I will help you in any way I can. Don't be too polite."
For example, he didn't know anything about Malanhua being fired from the construction site, and he couldn't help him even if he wanted to. You can imagine what kind of difficult situation this woman has been through in the past two days.
When Ma Lanhua heard this, she quickly lowered her head and thanked her repeatedly, feeling extremely grateful.
The city of Pujiang was extremely prosperous, but the distance between people was separated by walls. This was the first time she heard someone say they were willing to help her.
PS: Usually when you meet strangers who are about the same age, you call them senior brother or sister. But for Xiaobai, Guawazi, you can’t expect her to use standardized terms and just call her names smoothly.
