The story of a cook

Chapter 189
National Day is a good guy, everyone likes him very much, but he doesn't like to work, he always wants to make a lot of money at once, there is no such thing as digging a well with a shovel in the world.

Whatever you do, you need to do it down-to-earth, and you will have nothing if you don’t do it.

After drinking for a while, a few tables of guests came in around 09:30, and they all seemed to be working in the restaurant, and they all came here to eat skewers after get off work.The big market becomes a paradise for migrant workers at night.

Looking at the woman who came in last, I smiled, it was Zhang Li.

After calling her, she was surprised when she saw it was me.

Zhang Li came over and asked me, "Why are you here?"

I said, "Come back a little bit early today and have some drinks with friends."

Zhang Li and Zhang Li met at the Blue House before the National Day, introduced Hebei, and then said to her: "Don't be yourself, let's sit down and have a drink together."

Zhang Li said, "That's so embarrassing."

I said, "What's the point of being embarrassed, you can't eat over there, I'll eat here."

Guo Qing said to Zhang Li: "Since we met, let's eat together, don't see outsiders, we are all our family members."

Zhang Li sat down.

I asked Zhang Li: "Which hotel did you go to?"

Zhang Li said, "I went and talked for a while."

"How did it go?" I asked.

Zhang Li said: "It's okay. The main reason is that the man can't make the decision. He has to wait for the big boss to come back and make a decision."

I asked: "And the big boss?"

Zhang Li said: "It is said that she is a woman, her surname seems to be Cao, and she is quite capable."

Hebei said: "Santaizi has never heard of any woman with such great strength."

Zhang Li said: "Don't underestimate the three companies. There are quite a few powerful ones. Those who seem to be powerful on the surface are all small bosses, with a maximum of three or five million. It doesn’t show mountains or leak water, and looks like ordinary people, but in fact, they are the real rich.”

Guo Qing said: "I also heard that the big boss is a woman, quite rich, even the big market is hers."

Zhang Li said: "Not only is it a big market, but the entire Lingbei shopping mall opposite the Cultural Palace is also owned by others. If nothing else, let's just talk about the big market and Lingbei shopping mall. They must be worth some money. If you don't have a big one, you can't buy it for tens of millions."

Hebei asked in surprise: "So rich?"

Not only Hebei was surprised, but I was also surprised.It was the first time I heard that such a powerful person would cost tens of millions in a big market, plus the Lingbei shopping mall.

National Day couldn't help saying angrily: "Then that man is awesome, it's not what he says, just pretend."

Hebei said: "Hold chicken feathers as arrows."

I said: "Those have nothing to do with us, and it will be the same if you are good at that time, let's still hang out and drink."

With women joining, men get excited when they drink.Hebei began to let go of his drinking capacity and wanted to drink with Zhang Li.

Zhang Li drank white wine and said to Hebei: "You can drink with me, you have to drink white wine, and don't drink with me if you don't drink white wine."

Hebei immediately took Dala's mind and said, "I'm already drinking beer, so I can't mix it up, or I'll have to drink too much."

Zhang Li said: "Is it called drinking if you don't drink too much?" Then she said to me: "Is it Master Tan?"

I said: "Yes, you are right, but Hebei really can't drink baijiu, so you can drink baijiu with him, and if you take a sip, he will be fine."

Zhang Li said: "That's fine, come on."

He clinked glasses with Hebei, took a sip of liquor, and Hebei drank a glass of beer.

When it came to the National Day, the National Day said: "I don't have the capacity to drink, and I don't show off my strength. You drink yours, and I will accompany you."

Zhang Li said: "That won't work. We have known each other for a long time, but we have never talked or drank together. Why do you say I have to drink with you today? After drinking this, you can do whatever you want!"

Guo Qing said: "Then we have to agree, just this one cup, and then I can do whatever I want."

Hebei began to bury the National Day: "It's not that I look down on your National Day, I just want to ask you, are you a gentleman?"

Guoqing said: "Hebei, you don't have to beat me, it's useless to say, I'll just have this cup, and then you can drink me as you like."

On the national day, I didn't eat the Hebei style, and I drank the beer after clinking glasses with Zhang Li.

Perhaps it was Zhang Li's beauty, coupled with her ability to talk, that quickly attracted Hebei.Hebei kept chatting and drinking with Zhang Li, and fiddled with his phone every now and then.Zhang Li was okay at the beginning, chatted with him a few words, but later got a little annoyed with Moji from Hebei, stopped talking to him, and started drinking with me.

I laughed, thinking that beautiful women are indeed attractive, even people in Hebei who have children can't stand it.

The National Day was even more irritating. When Hebei and Zhang Li were drinking, he asked Hebei: "Brother Zhang, is your child in kindergarten?"

Hebei was stunned for a moment, and Jiu Jin immediately lost a little bit, and said a little embarrassedly: "It's kindergarten in the morning, don't you know that?"

National Day said solemnly: "Didn't you forget, ask, ask, it's nothing, you drink yours."

Zhang Li and I just laughed, Zhang Li laughed a little bit afraid to make a sound, she covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes were smiling.

At the end, Hebei and National Day went together, and I sent Zhang Li back.

Zhang Li said, "You two friends are very interesting."

I said, "Really, they are all affordable people."

She said: "Anyone who can be with you should be affordable."

I said: "You are also affordable."

"Am I affordable? I don't think I'm affordable," she said.

I said: "You are cheap."

She said: "If I'm really good, you should be with me, or it's not good, right?"

I said, "Aren't we together here? We are all friends."

She let out a long sigh.

Zhang Li is a very good woman, she is beautiful and has the ability to work. It should be said that whoever marries her as a wife can save a lot of worry.Sometimes I compare her with Lin Yan, and I still think Lin Yan is better after comparison.It's not that Zhang Li is bad, but that I don't feel like being with her.

Some people can be partners, some people can only be friends.Emotional things can't be forced.

Since little brother Lin Yan came here, I rarely communicate with Lin Yan, and I am still more or less angry in my heart.Although Qiuping decided not to go to school and started her own part-time job, I still couldn't hold back that energy.

I have no objection to Lin Yan taking money for her family, but the two of them can’t just consider themselves and ignore each other when they live together. Show it, but anger is a given.

Over the past few days, I have been thinking about it. After all, Lin Yan is young, five years younger than me. Sometimes she can’t think of those things when she talks. Tuition fee, when I said that I wanted to give Qiuping money for Qiuping to go to school, the first thing she thought was that if I took the money for Qiuping, then she would not have enough money for her younger brother, so she said it out of the way When I said that, I didn't think much about it.

I understand all of this, who told us that we are five years older than her, have experienced more things than her, and eat more salt than her, so we should be more tolerant.

Now Qiuping is doing very well, and she is always smiling every day. It can be seen that since she mailed the money home, she has become an adult. She feels that she can earn money and share the burden of the family for her parents. Yes, very fulfilling.

People don't know when they grow up, they may discover that they have grown up overnight.Yesterday was a child, today is an adult.

This is how Qiuping feels, she feels that she is an adult now.

It is said that the children of poor families will be able to manage their families early, so that must be the case, otherwise they will not be able to manage their families for the rest of their lives.

I have asked myself countless times, if I start my life all over again, will I still choose to work?In the end, I told myself that I would still come out to work.Because that was my way out, the only way out.

Ask yourself if you regret not going to university, and to be honest, I regret it.Because that was my dream, the only dream in my entire adolescence.

There are regrets, but no complaints, no reason to complain.

That is the path I chose, and I need to walk it myself.

Poverty is not a reason for me to complain. Poverty can limit my material needs, but it does not limit me to make any decisions, and the decisions I make are to change poverty.

There is no new life and no new road, and people are constantly moving forward happily in this life.
