"Xiaodao, can you let me think about it for a few days?"
After a long time, Ge Liang finally asked.
Tongdao Xu smiled and nodded, "Of course, your dog meat restaurant hasn't closed yet anyway. You have plenty of time to think about it. Just let me know when you have considered it."
Ge Liangcai: "Okay! I'll give you an answer in two days."
…
People are different.
This seems to be a truth.
For example, when Ge Liangcai left Daolin BBQ and returned to his Liangcai Dog Meat Restaurant, Ge Liangcai kept frowning slightly, thoughtfully.
When he reached the door of the store, he subconsciously stopped and looked up at the signboard above the door of the store. The five characters "Liangcai Dog Meat Restaurant" had already looked a bit old after more than a year of wind, sun and rain.
, below each word, there are stains caused by rain traces and dust.
Standing here, looking at this signboard, he seemed to still be able to see the grand occasion of his place on the day it first opened. All his relatives and elders came to congratulate him, and the proud smiles on his parents' faces that day.
And Zhang Wenxiu’s shy and happy face at that time.
Undoubtedly, Ge Liang was very prosperous in the first few months after he opened his business.
The business of this dog meat restaurant is very good, and Zhang Wenxiu is extremely satisfied with him, like a considerate, gentle and good girlfriend.
I come to his shop almost every night to help, bringing him fruits, buying cigarettes, and helping him wash clothes...
In those few months, Ge Liangcai was undoubtedly happy.
The kind that brings good harvests in both career and love.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The weather was getting hotter and the business in his store was declining day by day, as if the tide was receding.
As the business in his store became less and less, Zhang Wenxiu, who was extremely satisfied with him and was very good at it, became less and less shy in front of him. Gradually, her reason seemed to have returned. Looking at his
The affection in his eyes gradually disappeared.
There is no hope for my career, and my relationship is deteriorating day by day.
At this time, recalling the experience of more than a year, Ge Liangcai couldn't help but smile bitterly and thought to himself: It was quite wonderful. I had good times, then fell into despair, fell in love, and broke up again.
Yes, as early as the end of last year, he found an opportunity to break up with Zhang Wenxiu.
I didn't keep her for the New Year.
Although his Liangcai Dog Meat Restaurant has not made much progress, he still has arrogance in his bones.
He has always been proud since childhood.
Because since childhood, he has found that he is always smarter than most people around him. This is a psychological advantage. With this advantage, he naturally has arrogance in his heart.
Therefore, he cannot accept that his girlfriend is such a realistic woman.
Thinking about the present and the past, Ge Liang took out his cigarette case and lighter, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, and began to consider whether he should really go work for Xu Tongdao.
He really plans to close this dog meat restaurant.
Although his business here is okay in the winter, what's the point of making some money in the winter and losing it in the summer?
With his cigarette lit, he walked into the store. The part-time waiter and dishwasher in the store sat idle and looked at the menu on the wall in a daze. When he heard the footsteps, she looked at him and smiled.
He said hello.
Ge Liangcai smiled back and silently came to sit down at the bar.
He's still thinking about it.
Ever since he was little, he has always been good at thinking.
He felt that if a person wanted to live a better life than others, he had to use his brain. It was useless to act recklessly like his brother Rooster.
…
The next morning.
Ge Liangcai tidied himself up neatly and looked a little handsome.
My hair was also waxed and I had a handsome hairstyle.
Then, he gave the only aunt in the store a day off, locked the door of the store, and rode his bicycle to a cigarette shop a few streets away.
Before entering, he took out a small round mirror from his arms, looked at his face, and adjusted his hair style and collar.
Then he showed a free and easy smile, put away the mirror, and walked into the cigarette shop with his head held high.
The interior of this smoke shop is well decorated, better than those of the nearby shops.
Behind the clear glass counter, a slightly fat girl with a round face sat there, looking down at a magazine.
Hearing footsteps entering the door, she raised her eyes and looked over.
In the world of fat people, she can't be said to be good-looking, nor can she be said to be ugly, but she looks like a middle-aged girl!
Her skin is fair, but it's a pale kind of white.
She had no makeup and looked a bit plain.
age?
By visual inspection, she is about the same as Ge Liangcai! She looks about 27 or 28 years old, but she still gives the impression of an unmarried girl.
She doesn't have the temperament of a young woman.
Seeing the smiling Ge Lianghua, she was a little surprised, blinked in confusion, stood up subconsciously, and a dull smile slowly appeared on her face.
"Ge Liangcai? Handsome Ge Da, why are you here today? Today, is the sun rising in the west today? Ha."
She was a little surprised and a little pleasantly surprised.
I don't want to brag about it, but Ge Liangcai is a little taller than average in terms of appearance and figure. He is considered a handsome guy in the eyes of ordinary people.
"Wang Lan! What? You don't welcome me, an old classmate?"
Looking at her, Ge Liangcai smiled and joked.
"How could it be? Welcome, welcome! I just didn't expect you to come to my place. Come on, come on! Sit down, sit down! Please sit down! I'll make you a cup of tea."
Wang Lan had fully reacted at this time and entertained him warmly.
Ge Liangcai said, "No, no, no, don't be busy, don't be busy," but he didn't really stop her from making tea. He walked slowly towards the coffee table and wicker chairs in the store, while looking around at the environment of the cigarette shop, his face
Always smiling.
Before he sat down, he pretended to be curious and asked: "Hey, by the way, Wang Lan, we haven't seen each other for a long time after graduation, right? You should have got married and had children, right? Are you living well now?
Very happy?"
"No, no, I do want to get married, but from the looks of me, I'm not a beauty, right? One person can eat enough, and the whole family is not hungry! By the way, what about you? You are so handsome, you should have gotten married long ago.
Bar?"
While he was talking, Wang Lan walked towards him holding a cup of freshly brewed tea.
Ge Liangcai laughed and shook his head, "No, no, what kind of handsome guy am I? I'm still a bachelor. By the way, we haven't seen each other for so many years. Do you have time tonight? Let's go out to get together? I'm treating you! Can I give you a treat?
Don’t you have a face?”
Wang Lan was a little surprised, but the smile on his face was much thicker. He handed the tea cup to him with both hands, "Okay! It's rare for the handsome Ge Da to ask me out, so of course I have to give him face. But, Ge Liangcai, aren't you a little abnormal? Why?
Suddenly you remembered to ask me out for dinner? You, haha, you’re not going to chase me, are you?”
She was joking.
But Ge Liangcai looked at her with a smile, looked at her for a few seconds, and asked in a low voice: "What if it is? Do I have a chance?"
Wang Lan was startled, looked at him in surprise, and looked at him.
