Chapter 112 Your Brother, Won't You Come Back Tonight?
.........

After the little boy left, Lu Fei asked curiously, "What did you tell him just now?"

"It's nothing." Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "Let's continue, I haven't understood this question yet."

So Lu Fei began to lower his head and explain seriously: "This question, in fact, we can ignore the question first, and directly start from the question itself..."

The two were so focused on their studies that they didn't notice that a woman was secretly filming them.

and posted it online

Before he knew it, after finishing all the test papers, Lu Fei looked up and found that it was almost dark.

Looking at the phone, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time for lunch.

Strange, even if I forgot the time, why didn't my mother call and ask myself?

In the past, when it was time to eat and I didn't go back, my mother would call to ask.

In fact, he didn't know, Zhang Suzhen knew that when he went out to be with Jiang Jiang, she didn't care about it at all.

In case the two of them are having fun, aren't you disturbing them?
Lu Fei and Jiang Jiang packed up their things, and after leaving the shop,
"Okay, I'm going home for dinner." Lu Fei got up and said.

Jiang Jiang packed her things and said, "Today, I invite you to dinner."

"Forget it, go home and eat." Lu Fei shook his head and said, "It's a waste of money."

"Go." Jiang Jiang said coquettishly: "You helped me with tutoring all afternoon and provided you with a meal. It's a good deal."

Lu Fei looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's really not necessary. You should save some of the living expenses your parents gave you, and don't spend money lavishly."

Having been in contact with Jiang Jiang for a while, Lu Fei's most direct feeling is that Jiang Jiang spends money freely.

Lu Fei felt that everyone was still a student, and he couldn't make money by himself, so he had to rely on his parents.

It is better to save unnecessary money.

"So are you afraid of spending money on your own?" Jiang Jiang murmured in her heart.

She tentatively asked, "Then, how about you go home with me?"

Lu Fei: "???"

"I mean, you think it's a waste of money for us to eat out, so let's buy vegetables and go home to eat, and I'll cook, okay?"

"..." Lu Fei.

He hesitated.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Jiang didn't give Lu Fei any chance to hesitate at all, she just started, grabbed Lu Fei's arm, and left.

"." Lu Fei.

Soon, the two came to Jiang Jiang's downstairs supermarket.

Coming to the vegetable area, Jiang Jiang said: "Actually, there are not many people at this time, because it is already past the time to buy vegetables, and most of them come to buy in the morning."

"Why, there is a lot of water on these vegetables?" Lu Fei picked up a few and looked at them, and asked.

He also bought vegetables with his mother before, but he usually served as a labor force, and he never carefully observed and cared about these small details.

But now that he and Jiang Jiang are shopping for vegetables, it's different.

Facing Lu Fei's doubts, Jiang Jiang explained with a smile: "I thought that the remaining vegetables are from the morning, and they have been picked once. They are not very fresh, but after sprinkled with water and illuminated by lights, they will Make it look, look good, fresh."

"So that's how it is." Lu Fei thought that he added water to make the vegetables heavier.

"Didn't she tell you about the grocery shopping before you and your aunt?"

"No, she never told me that."

"Oh, she may think you don't need to know, anyway, you don't cook." Jiang Jiang asked with a smile: "By the way, what do you want to eat later?"

"I am casual, not picky eaters."

Jiang Jiang looked at some vegetables left in the supermarket, and said, "Then I'll make you a scrambled egg with tomato, and a sweet and sour short ribs. I was at your house that day. I think you really like it."

"." Lu Fei blushed.

That day, I did eat a bit too much, mainly because Jiang Jiang's cooking was really delicious.

"But the dishes seem to be a little short, how about a small stir-fried twice-cooked pork, and a green vegetable tofu soup at the end?"

"Okay." Lu Fei nodded and said, "I'm not very good at grocery shopping, so you buy it, I carry it, and I pay for it."

Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "I treat you to dinner, and you don't need the money, but you can carry your things."

After that, Lu Fei and Jiang Jiang had a clear division of labor.

Jiang Jiang selected the ingredients in front of her, and Lu Fei was responsible for carrying them in the back, and went to the staff to weigh and pack them.

When buying, Jiang Jiang would also popularize some little knowledge about grocery shopping to Lu Fei.

For example, when buying tomatoes, you should buy the kind that is neither hard nor soft. When buying garlic sprouts, you should choose the kind of meat that has many leaves, and the meat that is copied from the pot. Kind of wait.

Although Lu Fei didn't understand, but his mind was good, he remembered everything.

After buying vegetables, Jiang Jiang went to buy a bottle of juice, some milk, snacks, etc., saying that the refrigerator at home was empty, and it happened that there was free labor now, so I bought them together by the way.

It's almost 6:[-] when all the purchases are finished.

When he came to the house, Lu Fei followed him in and turned on the light. The house was empty and there was no one there.

"Where's your brother?" Lu Fei asked curiously, "He hasn't come back yet?"

The reason why he promised Jiang Jiang to come to her for dinner just now was because she said that her brother was also at home and the three of them would eat together.

If Lu Fei knew, he and Jiang Jiang were the only ones who would not come here.

Lonely man and widow, young guy, living in the same room, it's embarrassing, okay?

"I don't know either." Jiang Jiang pretended to look around, and then said, "I'll call and ask."

With that said, she took out her mobile phone and called Jiang Ping'an.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hey, where are you? Why don't you go home?" Jiang Jiang asked.

In an Internet cafe not far from the community, Jiang Ping'an was eating instant noodles, staring at his gaming computer screen, and said speechlessly, "Sister, why didn't I come back, don't you understand?"

Originally, he was playing games at home, and he was playing well, but who knows, his sister sent a message.

[Flowers are simple: go out to play, don't stay at home, next month's pocket money will be doubled. 】

To be honest, he really didn't want to go out.

Even with his butt, he knew that Lu Fei must be coming home.

But she bribed me with pocket money!

"What? You have something to do temporarily, and you want to have dinner with your classmates? Well, come back early after eating."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Jiang hung up the phone directly, and said to Lu Fei: "He went to dinner with his classmates. It seems that tonight is just me and you."

"." Lu Fei.

After Jiang Jiang put everything away, she said, "You can watch TV for a while, or go to my brother's bedroom and play with the computer for a while. I'll call you when I'm done."

"Forget it, let me do it with you, let's make a move, and it will be faster."

"Well, that's fine." Jiang Jiang said: "You cook the rice in the rice cooker first, then peel the tomatoes and pick out the garlic sprouts."

"Oh."

After Jiang Jiang washed the meat, she saw that Lu Fei was still peeling the tomato skin hard, and said with a smile: "Tomato skin is not peeled like this, look at me."

As she spoke, she scratched the tails of a few tomatoes lightly with a knife, then put them into a ladle together, poured in the freshly boiled water, scalded them for a few seconds, and then scooped them up.

"Look, now it only needs to be peeled lightly, and its skin will fall off."

"."

Lu Fei knew this physical principle at a glance, but he just didn't expect it.

This is the same as doing a question. You obviously know some knowledge, but if you don't think about it, you just don't know how to do it.

Lu Fei asked, "Why didn't you say it earlier? It took me a long time to peel."

"I forgot." Jiang Jiang said awkwardly.

Although Lu Fei is a bit stupid, two people are always faster than one person.

Soon, the meal will be ready.

Put the food on the table, take the bowl, add rice.

As soon as Jiang Jiang took his first bite of rice, his expression became weird.

Sitting opposite Jiang Jiang, Lu Fei asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"

"so hard."

Lu Fei took a sip himself and frowned, it was really hard.

Jiang Jiang asked with a smile, "Did you not add much water when cooking?"

"I put a lot, and the water covered the rice." Lu Fei replied.

Jiang Jiang explained: "Under normal circumstances, the water should be about 3 cm higher than the rice, so that the cooked rice is suitable, neither hard nor soft."

"." Lu Fei said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I wanted to ask you when I was cooking, but I saw that you were busy, so I didn't bother."

"It's okay, it's just a bit harder, and it's not impossible to eat." Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "Besides, I don't have stomach problems, so I'm not afraid."

Lu Fei laughed at himself and said, "No wonder my mother doesn't let me in to help her every time. It seems she is right."

"Hahaha let's eat, the two of us want to eat all of these today, don't waste it, that's what you said."

As soon as Jiang Jiang finished speaking, the two of them started eating when suddenly the whole room went dark.

"." Lu Fei.

"." Jiang Jiang.

Lu Fei took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight function, stood up, went to the window, and looked at the other residents in the community, all of them had no electricity.

"It should be a power outage." Lu Fei turned around, walked over, and said.

Jiang Jiang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, my family is prepared."

"???" Lu Fei.

Soon, Lu Fei knew what Jiang Jiang was planning.

She took out a few white, long thin candles from the kitchen.

"Help me in the porch behind you and get me two soda cans that my brother finished drinking."

"Oh." Lu Fei reached out and took two.

Jiang Jiang lit one with a lighter, and after it burned for a while, she dripped two drops of wax on the can, and then firmly stuck it to the mountain.

Then came the second one, which was very skillful.

It seems that she has done such things a lot?
Put one in front of Lu Fei, and another in front of himself.

The faint candlelight flickered, but it also illuminated the small space on the table.

"Sorry, I'm treating you to a meal, but the power went out."

Jiang Jiang was a little embarrassed, but soon she secretly laughed again.

Lu Fei asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Actually, this is pretty good, it's a bit like a candlelight dinner for the two of us!"

"..." Lu Fei.

Jiang Jiang urged: "Eat quickly, or the food will be cold."

The two were eating, and Jiang Jiang was chatting about interesting things between herself and her best friend, while Lu Fei listened quietly.

"Do you often, is such a person at home?" Lu Fei asked suddenly.

Jiang Jiang looked at him: "What?"

Lu Fei said: "Every time, when your brother is not at home and the power goes out, is this how you come here?"

Jiang Jiang was stunned.

"Aren't you afraid? Alone, so dark!"

Jiang Jiang, who was always happy, was silent for a while, and asked back: "Do you want to hear the truth, or a lie?"

"It's all right." Lu Fei replied.

"The lie is that I'm such a big man, so I have nothing to be afraid of."

Lu Fei asked, "What about the truth?"

"Scared." Jiang Jiang replied: "Especially when I was a child, I was most afraid of the dark. I was too timid to go to the bathroom alone at night."

"Okay, let's not talk about this." Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "Let's eat."

After eating, Lu Fei helped Jiang Jiang clean up the dishes and put them in the kitchen.

"Let's put it here. I'll wash it when the electricity comes."

"No, you give me light and I'll wash it."

Lu Fei picked up the bowl and began to wash it.

He smiled and said, "I'm not good at cooking, but I'm a professional at washing dishes."

After all, he has been washing at home for ten years.

Jiang Jiang subconsciously blurted out: "After that, when we are together, you will be in charge of washing the dishes, and I will be in charge of cooking."

"Pong!"

Lu Fei's hands trembled when he heard this, and the bowl fell out of his hand and fell into the sink.

He turned to look at Jiang Jiang with a confused face: "???"

After Jiang Jiang finished speaking, she also realized that she had said something wrong, and said awkwardly: "Just kidding."

The two looked at each other, then quickly moved away.

The air suddenly became quiet...

One was holding a candle, and the other was silently washing the dishes with his head bowed.

At this moment, the hearts of the two are not at peace.

When Lu Fei finished washing the last bowl, he had no choice but to take the initiative to speak.

"The dishes are done."

"Oh."

Jiang Jiang said nervously: "Then go back quickly, it's getting late, so Auntie won't worry."

Lu Fei hesitated for a moment, then said: "How about, I'd better wait for the call with you before leaving."

"Okay?"

"fine."

After the two put the candles in the living room, they came to the balcony and sat on the ground.

But it was cold on the ground, so I put two cushions on it.

"Look, tonight, there are actually stars in the sky." Jiang Jiang looked up at the night sky, a little surprised.

Lu Fei also looked up at the night sky, and replied: "I seldom look up at the stars now, I remember when I was young, I often looked up.

I feel that at that time, there were more and brighter stars in the night sky than now. "

"I think so too."

After a while, Jiang Jiang asked, "You really don't want to go back? Stay with me until the call comes?"

"Ah."

Jiang Jiang smiled and said, "Then if you don't call tonight, will you sit with me until dawn?"

Lu Fei asked back: "Your brother, are you not coming back tonight?"

"Back... come back, of course I have to come back."

Lu Fei gave her a blank look: "That's it. If the electricity doesn't come on, I can leave after your brother comes back."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you go now."

"Aren't you afraid of the dark?"

"what?!"

"Just right, I'm not afraid!"

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Anyway, I haven't looked at the stars like this for a long time."

Jiang Jiang looked at Lu Fei's side face, her eyes were inexplicably moist.

Every time, he could use his clumsy way to make himself feel warm.

Whether it's gloves, fireworks, little ash, brown sugar water, or now.

It's just that his gentleness is always hidden.

At this moment, Jiang Jiang really wanted to rest her head on Lu Fei's shoulder and look at the stars together.

Then he said to him: "As long as you are here, I will not be afraid of the dark in the future."

In such dim light, even if two people sat next to each other, they couldn't see each other's face clearly.

Therefore, Lu Fei didn't notice Jiang Jiang's strangeness.
