Feeling the pleading look in Liu Lan's eyes, Cao Shuang almost got excited again.

Fortunately, he restrained himself in time:

"Sister, next time, I want you to drink porridge."

"drink……"

His expression was a little dazed, until he felt Cao Shuang's gaze on his mouth, Liu Lan finally reacted.

After exiting the fighting state, Liu Lan obviously no longer had the madness he had just had.

Her face flushed slightly, until she felt Cao Shuang getting excited again, Liu Lan quickly nodded:

"Drink. You can let me drink anything."

She had no choice but to do so. Although she did not stand up, Liu Lan could already feel the soreness in her thighs.

If Cao Shuang happened again, she would basically have no time to think about going to work tomorrow.

Hearing Liu Lan's slightly aggrieved voice, Cao Shuang trembled all over:

This goblin is really hard to guard against.

Given Liu Lan's family situation, it was certainly impossible for Cao Shuang to stay here for too long.

After taking a few more bites of the buns and letting Liu Lan dry him off, Cao Shuang put on his clothes and walked to the door:

"Sister, you still need to rest well for your injury. When you recover, I will treat you to some porridge."

Seeing Cao Shuang hurriedly pedaling away after saying a few words, Liu Lan, who was half leaning against the door frame, couldn't help but squeeze her legs together:

This enemy never forgets to tease me at any time.

Of course, Cao Shuang didn't know what Liu Lan was thinking.

However, after the carriage drove out of the yard, Cao Shuang's movements slowed down.

"Thanks to my bravery, otherwise I would have almost been unable to get out today."

After saying this, Cao Shuang patted his lower back with one hand:

Even though he seemed to be full of fighting spirit just now, he had actually reached his limit.

Faced with a top-notch talent like Liu Lan, who would be willing to stop unless there was no food in the warehouse?

"Exercise, you must exercise!"

Just thinking about Liu Lan's shaking pomelo, Cao Shuang made a firm decision:

Young people should have the courage to rush into the tiger's den, and I, Cao, have been prepared for this...

"Hey, is Xiaoshuang back?"

Due to the delay at Liu Lan's house, Cao Shuang returned much later than usual.

But what he didn't expect was that even at this time, he could still meet other people.

Looking at Yan Bugui who also came in with two small fish, Cao Shuang nodded and smiled:

"Uncle San, you have a good harvest today, right?"

As an elementary school teacher, Yan Bugui's salary is actually not very high.

In order to support his large family, in addition to saving money on a daily basis, he also often took time to go fishing to feed his family.

"This fish is too small, and it won't have much flavor when made into soup."

Yan Bugui casually shook the two small fish in his hand and quickly changed the subject:

"Xiao Shuang, I heard that you borrowed this car from a co-worker?"

"Yes."

He said this yesterday, so Cao Shuang certainly wouldn't deny it.

"It shouldn't be cheap to borrow a bicycle, right?"

Seeing Cao Shuang nod, Yan Bugui looked around and then closed the distance between himself and Cao Shuang:

"Xiao Shuang, if you want to borrow a car, you can actually ask me."

"We are all residents of the same courtyard. Uncle San will definitely not cheat you. Just 5...2 cents per time."

Perhaps considering the idea of ​​'small profits but quick turnover', Yan Bugui quickly completed a wave of price cuts before the words came out.

Hearing Yan Bugui's words, Cao Shuang's mouth twitched slightly:

'Borrowing a car' was indeed not cheap, and just a few hours almost emptied his savings of more than ten years.

However, I, Cao, think it is worth it if it can help orphans and widows improve their lives a little.

"Thank you, Uncle San. If I need anything in the future, I will definitely look for you."

Needless to say, facing Yan Bugui's expectant eyes, Cao Shuang finally nodded:

It doesn’t matter whether to borrow it or not. It’s no big deal to just deal with it.

In the entire courtyard, Yan Bugui was one of the people Cao Shuang disliked the least. After all, although he loved to calculate, he adhered to the principle of "exchange".

"Hey~"

Seeing the hope of making money, Yan Bugui's smile became even more intense:

"Xiao Shuang, you have to remember this. We are a family, and the Third Uncle will definitely not take advantage of you."

"I know, I know."

After waving to Old Yan, Cao Shuang pushed his bicycle back to his room:

It’s not a good idea to keep using Liu Lan’s bike. It seems that in addition to saving money to buy goods, I also have to find a way to buy a bicycle.

After a fierce battle with Liu Lan, Cao Shuang fell asleep soon after returning to his room.

The next morning, the mysterious shop opened as usual.

A three-pound carp, a mousetrap and a pair of cloth shoes, the three items cost two yuan in total. Cao Shuang bought them all and then rode his bike with Liu Lan on his back to the factory.

"Master, something bad has happened~"

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Cao Shuang met the fat man's panicked look:

"Master, Shazhu is taking a day off today, so you still have to cook for the cafeteria!"

"Just cook, what's the fuss?"

"No, today is different from usual."

Hearing Cao Shuang's words, the fat man's expression became even more anxious:

"Leaders from other factories are coming to study today. Without Shazhu, we might run into problems."

Chapter 18 Sister Lan, You Seem to Have Grown Up Again

Although Cao Shuang has proven that he can cook, in the eyes of everyone in the cafeteria, there is still a certain gap between him and Sha Zhu.

The meals prepared for the leaders cannot be as casual as the big pot meals. In this matter, Sha Zhu is obviously more trustworthy.

Listening to the fat man's words, Ma Hua, who was standing in the corner, showed a look of satisfaction on his face:

Do you really think that being able to cook a few dishes is a skill?

Without my master, let’s see how you are going to solve the problem next.

"Cao Shuang, it seems that you already know what happened."

As the fat man finished speaking, Li Xuewen just walked in from the cafeteria entrance:

"Our brothers are coming here to learn from us, so we definitely can't lose face in front of them."

"In this situation, I give you two choices."

"Please give me instructions, Director Li!"

Although he already had some guesses, Cao Shuang still turned his attention to Li Xuewen, waiting for him to speak on his own initiative.

"The first option is to go and apologize to Sha Zhu, and then ask him to come back and cook."

"The second option is that you cook. If you can satisfy other leaders, I will promote you to a ninth-level cook. If you can't do well..."

"If I can't do it well, I will take the initiative to apply for transfer out of the cafeteria!"

Li Xuewen didn't need to say much, Cao Shuang quickly took over the conversation.

'Um? '

Although the choice was made by Li Xuewen, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Cao Shuang make the choice so quickly:

"Don't you have anything to say?"

Cooking for the boss may sound very prestigious, but in reality it involves tremendous pressure.

Otherwise, why would Sha Zhu be the only one capable of shouldering such an important task in such a large steel mill?

In fact, before coming here, Li Xuewen always thought that Cao Shuang would choose the first option.

Feeling Li Xuewen's scrutiny, Cao Shuang straightened his chest suddenly:

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity to perform!"

"you……"

One breath, two breaths, three breaths, and after three full seconds of silence, Li Xuewen admitted that he had miscalculated again.

His eyes fell on Cao Shuang, and Li Xuewen suddenly reached out and patted Cao Shuang on the shoulder:

"Work hard, the factory will not treat you unfairly!"

After finishing his words, before Cao Shuang could speak, Li Xuewen had already turned and left:

Since Cao Shuang has accepted the task, he should be responsible for the final outcome.

"Are you crazy?"

As soon as Li Xuewen left, Liu Lan pinched Cao Shuang's waist hard:
