He suddenly said these words seriously, Xu Chulan was stunned: "Senior Lu, what do you mean?"

It turned out that Brother Ziqian didn't want to pursue her, he just said casually to send Xu Bing!

For some reason, with this knowledge, Xu Chulan felt very lost.

Lu Ziqian stared at her with gentle eyes like water: "I mean you don't want to think too much, I don't want to pursue you, I just need your help!"

"Help? What do you need my help with?" Xu Chulan was a little confused.

Lu Ziqian looked at her and started talking nonsense: "It's like this, I have been poisoned since I was a child, and my stomach is very bad. I can't eat outside food often. Our family has a two-bedroom apartment in the next neighborhood. My auntie has always cooked for me. However, my aunt has something to do at home, and my husband is sick and needs to go home to take care of me. So I quit my job.”

"I haven't been able to find a suitable cooking aunt. I heard that your cooking skills are very good, so I thought of asking you to cook for me. Don't worry, I will pay you a salary. That aunt is 3,000 yuan a month. , I'll give you 3,000 yuan too, okay?"

Xu Chulan opened his mouth in shock: "Three, three thousand?"

She used to work hard at the hotel near the school, and she went to school every afternoon after school, and it was less than 2,000 yuan a month!

"What? Do you think it's less? If it's less, I'll give you more money!" Lu Ziqian was surprised to see her, thinking that he said the money was less.

Xu Chulan quickly waved his hand: "No, no, yes, it's too much? Senior Lu, what do you do with the three thousand dollars?"

She was a little excited about this job.

If time permits, tutoring, plus the three thousand yuan, she can repay all the loan before graduating from college.

Lu Ziqian thought for a while before saying, "It's nothing, just take care of my three meals a day, simply help me with laundry and cleaning. You can take one day off every week. Xu, would you like to try it out? ?"

"I-, I" Xu Chulan's heart was very contradictory at this time.

She really needs such an easy job.

However, many people in the school have misunderstood her relationship with brother Ziqian. If she goes to his place to clean and cook every day, she doesn't know what bad rumors will spread from her classmates.

Lu Ziqian saw through her contradictions and struggles at a glance: "Xu classmate, life is only a few decades, it is very short, it will be very tiring to live in the eyes of others. As the old saying goes, go your own way and let Others say go! Don't you want to earn more money so that your relatives can live better and live more comfortably?"

His words reminded Xu Chulan of her uncle and grandmother. When her uncle took her back and treated her, her aunt did not agree at all.

But my uncle and grandmother didn't say a word, no matter how aunt quarrelled or scolded, and they didn't promise to send them away.

In the end, my aunt struggled for a while and saw that there was nothing she could do, so she accepted the fact.

However, when she graduated from junior high school and was about to go to high school, her aunt disagreed again, and there was a lot of trouble at home.

Let her go to work.

My uncle has two children, a cousin and a cousin.

My cousin was in elementary school at the time. She skipped a grade and was in the same class with her cousin. It is indeed very difficult for a rural family to supply three students at the same time.

However, her uncle and grandmother still gritted their teeth and chose to let her go to school.

My grandmother was seventy years old at the time. For her to go to school, she went to the nearby village to help others pick peppers and peanuts every day, just to earn an extra 20 to 30 yuan a day to support her family.

Her grandmother and uncle have paid too much for her to get to where she is today.

In any case, she must repay them well.

Therefore, thinking of her grandmother and uncle, Xu Chulan gritted her teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, Senior Lu, I promise to cook for you!".

The 3,000 yuan is my uncle's salary for a month's hard work in their factory in that small county town. The earlier she paid off her student loans, the earlier she could get rid of Xu Bing's harassment.

Moreover, her uncle and grandmother's life will be easier when she saves money.

Seeing that she finally agreed, Lu Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then let's start tonight. Let's go to the nearby supermarket to buy food. Let me see if your craft is good. If it's not delicious, don't blame me for deducting your salary!" He looked at Xu Chulan, full of joy.

Xu Chulan looked at the time: "Well, Senior Lu, I have a tutor in the Shuixie Garden Community at 6:30, so I'm leaving after I finish cooking. Is that okay?"

"Of course you can, but it's past five o'clock now, so we have to speed up." Lu Ziqian smiled and naturally wanted to hold her hand, but she cleverly avoided it.

The two quickly came to a nearby supermarket.

"What other ingredients do you have at home? Don't buy and repeat!" Xu Chulan asked while picking vegetables.

Lu Ziqian pushed the shopping cart and looked at her happily: "No, my refrigerator is empty, not even a bottle of water!"

Xu Chulan turned back and put the selected vegetables in the shopping cart, and looked at him sympathetically: "When did that aunt leave? Didn't she buy you something to eat?"

While speaking, she had already led him to the food area: "I have a bad stomach, so drink more millet and yam porridge!"

She took another 5-jin bag of millet from the supermarket shelf and asked Lu Ziqian, "The weather has turned cold, so it should be no problem to buy a 5-jin bag, Senior Lu, do you think we buy bags or bulk. ?"

Lu Ziqian looked at him in awe, with the illusion that after they had been married for many years, his wife asked her husband.

Xu Chulan shook his hand in front of him: "Senior Lu, I want to ask you something! Do you think this kind of bagged millet is too expensive!"

Lu Ziqian hurriedly took the bag of millet from her and put it in the shopping cart: "I don't quite understand, you can say whatever you want."

The two bought some yam, pumpkin, radish, cabbage, oil salt sauce vinegar and other supplies.

After Lu Ziqian settled the bill, he consciously picked up everything.

Xu Chulan wanted to help, but he refused: "You are too thin. If you are tired and faint, I will have to pay for the medical expenses!"

He joked happily.

The two came to the neighborhood next to Huada. It was a two-bedroom apartment of more than 70 square meters. The decoration was simple and warm.

Xu Chulan opened the refrigerator, and there was really nothing in it.

She put on her apron and went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Lu Ziqian stood at the door of the kitchen, watching her slender back, washing millet, scraping yam, peeling potatoes, washing greens and cabbage. I have never been happy in my heart.

Soon, just after six o'clock, Xu Chulan made dinner.

When I was at my uncle's house before, every winter and summer vacation, she took the initiative to take care of all the housework, such as cooking, it was hard for her!

"Senior Lu, try it and see if it suits your appetite!" She took off her apron and helped Lu Ziqian serve a bowl of porridge.

Lu Ziqian looked at the millet yam porridge with just the right concentration, shredded potatoes with vinegar, mushrooms and vegetables, and fish-flavored eggplants on the table. He gave Xu Chulan an approving look: "It smells good, but I didn't expect you to really know how to cook!"

His Nuonuo must have suffered a lot over the years!
