Siheyuan: the beginning to realize the freedom of cooking

Lou's house.

When Lou Xiaoe got home, her eyes were swollen like walnuts.

When Father Lou saw her eyes, he was startled: "Xiao'e, where have you been? Who bullied you?"

Such a question caught Lou's mother's attention. She stepped forward, grabbed Lou Xiao'e's shoulder and asked, "Xiao'e, what's going on?"

"Mom and Dad, I'm fine. I'm going back to my room to sleep first." Lou Xiaoe pursed her lips, not wanting her parents to worry, so she quickly returned to her room.

Lou's father and Lou's mother looked at each other.

"Old Lou, I'll go in and take a look." After Lou's mother finished speaking, she followed into Lou Xiao'e's room.

Lou Xiaoe was already hiding in her quilt with her head covered.

"Xiao'e, what's the matter with you, why are you crying?" Mother Lou said, sitting by Lou Xiao'e's bed.

"Mom, let me be quiet! I don't want to say it." Lou Xiao'e said with a choked voice.

"Xiao'e, does it have something to do with that young man surnamed Lin? Listen to me, your father still decided that the whole family will go to Hong Kong together. You and him have no results. Let's not be so stubborn. Let's talk about it in Hong Kong." Lou The mother stepped forward and lifted the quilt from Lou Xiaoe's head.

"What?! Has it been decided? When will you leave?" Lou Xiaoe sat up when she heard this.

"Your father told me in the afternoon that he had already made a decision, and I agreed, but the specific time has not yet been determined." Mother Lou said, stretching out her hand to smooth the broken hair on Lou Xiao'e's forehead.

"Mom, I don't want to live in an unfamiliar place." Lou Xiaoe said resistingly.

"Xiao'e, you can't let yourself lose your temper over this matter. We have to go, and the whole family will go there neatly. You go to bed early, and I'll go out first." After Lou's mother finished speaking, she turned and left Lou Xiao'e's room.

Lou's father was waiting for Lou's mother in the living room, and when he saw her come out, he raised his head and asked, "What's wrong with Xiao'e?"

"She didn't want to say it. I guess it has something to do with the young man surnamed Lin. Otherwise, she was happy all day long. When did you see her cry? But I told her that she is going to Hong Kong, and she has nothing to do with the young man surnamed Lin. There will be results." Lou's mother said.

"A few days ago, I talked to Director Yang of the Red Star Factory on the phone and asked about Lin Aijun. His character is indeed good, and he has a good reputation. He is still a party member at a young age, and belongs to the young and promising type of people." Father Lou said, recruiting He beckoned Lou's mother to sit beside him.

Lou's mother walked over and sat down beside Lou's father.

"Old Lou, he caught a thief once, and helped us find the family heirloom once. There is no need to inquire about his character. The problem is that he has a partner. Xiao'e has no fate with him. Anyway, I plan to leave, leave After that, maybe Xiao'e will forget about it in a few months."

"I want to have a chat with that young man surnamed Lin alone, and see if it's possible for him to go with us." Father Lou said suddenly.

"Ah?! Old Lou, what do you mean?" Lou's mother was shocked when she heard that. He didn't know that Lou's father had such a plan.

"This time our family is going to Hong Kong. We are not familiar with the place. We have to start from scratch. There is a trustworthy person who can do things with half the effort. This Lin Aijun, firstly, Xiao'e likes it, and secondly, he is really not greedy for others' wealth. The most available person." Father Lou said.

"Then doesn't he have a date? How can this be done?" Mother Lou asked.

Lou's father smiled and said: "In this world, there are very few men who love beauty but not country. If you choose career or love, [-]% of them choose career. You might as well give it a try. As far as we are concerned, there is no Loss, I'll take care of it."

"Okay!" Mother Lou agreed.

Three days later.

Lin Aijun went back to the house to read after eating.

"Dong, dong, dong——!"

There was a knock on the door.

Lin Aijun stepped forward to open the door and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties standing outside the door, dressed in plain clothes.

He vaguely felt that the people outside the door looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it all at once.

"Comrade Lin Aijun? I'm Mr. Lou's driver, Uncle Fu. We met once before. I wonder if you still remember him?" The middle-aged man standing outside the door asked.

Having said that, Lin Aijun did remember.

"Hi, Uncle Fu, what can I do for you?"

"Our master would like to treat you to a cup of tea. I wonder if you have time?" Forbe said politely.

Lin Aijun thought for a while, and thought that a person like Lou's father came to him, it must not be for small talk, he must have something to say.

So he nodded and said, "Yes, now?"

"Yes, now, please follow me." Uncle Fu said, turning around to lead the way for Lin Aijun.

Lin Aijun followed Uncle Fu into Lou's car.

This is the second time he got in Lou's car after crossing.

Lou's car is the same as in the TV series, an army green jeep.

After getting in the car, Uncle Fu drove to the place arranged by Lou's father.

After a while, the car stopped at the door of a high-class tea house in Sijiu City.

"Master is in the private room of Luzihao, please go up by yourself, I won't accompany you up there." Uncle Fu turned his head and said politely to Lin Aijun.

Lin Aijun nodded, thanked him politely, and walked into the teahouse.

Along the stairs, I found the private room of Luzihao, and knocked lightly on the door.

"come in--!"

Father Lou's voice sounded in the room.

Lin Aijun pushed open the door, walked in, and closed the door behind him.

I saw Lou's father was already sitting on the seat, with a pot of brewed tea and several plates of delicate refreshments in front of him.

"Mr. Lou, good evening." Lin Aijun greeted after entering the door.

"Come in and sit down. I'm much older than you, so I won't be polite to you. I'll call you Xiaolin."

Lou's father smiled elegantly, without any condescension at all, but made Lin Aijun feel like a spring breeze.

Lin Aijun is not a fool, of course he understands that with Lou's father's identity and status, he is backward compatible.

So he walked to the table generously, picked a chair facing Lou's father and sat down.

"Xiao Lin, come, drink tea!"

Seeing that Lin Aijun was seated, Father Lou took the initiative to pick up the teapot on the table and poured tea into the empty cup in front of Lin Aijun.

"Mr. Lou, you're welcome, I can do it myself." Lin Aijun said unhurriedly.

Father Lou smiled and nodded. After putting the teapot back in place, he sat down and got straight to the point.

"Xiao Lin, I called you here today to talk to you about your future."

"My future?" Lin Aijun was a little surprised, but there was no sign on his face.

"Xiao Lin, what do you think of the future of Hong Kong?" Father Lou asked suddenly.

Lin Aijun's heart skipped a beat. The changes brought about by the butterfly effect seemed to have made Lou's father's decision to leave Sijiu City and go to Hong Kong a few years earlier.

This question, if it is an ordinary worker who grew up in Forty-Nine City, really can't say one, two, three.

If you talk about the past, you can answer with a little historical knowledge.

But when it comes to the future, it is really not something ordinary people can answer well.

But to him, it's no different from taking an open-book exam with the answers...
