Life is bloody eight o'clock

At seven o'clock on Thursday night, Yuan Ben, who had nothing to do, finally decided to cook.

He is a typical Aries. He hides a deep housework maniac. Whenever he encounters any difficulties in life, he can make up for it by cleaning the room, washing clothes, going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and making eight dishes and one soup.

After Yuan Ben moved back, he gave the house a deep cleaning. He even wiped off the scale on the back of the toilet tank. He washed everything that could be washed in the water. Both were ironed on one side.

He also wanted to go to the vegetable market to do a lot of shopping, but he was in deep financial crisis recently and lost the right to be a local tyrant in the vegetable market, so he could only keep things simple.

He originally wanted to get up early every morning to catch up with the first wave of business in the morning market and buy some cheap and juicy vegetables. After opening his eyes at 10 o'clock for three consecutive days, he finally resigned to his fate and went to the discount area of ​​the supermarket at night to buy some cheap and juicy vegetables. dishes to get by.

On the first day, he stir-fried a cabbage at noon; in the evening he used the leftover cabbage and rice to fry the rice with eggs.

The next day, he roasted an eggplant and stir-fried potatoes with spicy peppers at noon, and at night he combined the two vegetables together to make a dish of ground three delicacies.

On the third day, he cooked a packet of instant noodles at noon, put a tomato in it, and cooked another bowl of dried noodles with the instant noodle packet at night.

On the fourth day, his doorbell rang, and Jingxi Fresh sent him two big bags of things, fruits and vegetables, fresh meat and milk, all bought according to his habits, and these things could not be returned. Yuan Ben could only stuff it all into the refrigerator, and sent Xu Douxiao "thank you".

It was probably busy there, so I didn't reply "No" until the evening.

Yuan Ben felt that if things went on like this, he would owe more and more favors, and the relationship between him and Xu Douxiao was even more unclear. He tossed and turned, restless, and the only way to relieve his worries was to drink.

Although Yuan Ben has no habit of saving money, he likes to save wine. It is well known that he is addicted to alcohol. Colleagues and friends give wine to him for birthdays, new year festivals, and travel gifts. A change of clothes, and five or six bottles of wine with me.

Drink noble rot and sweet white when you are happy, drink rice wine when you are sad, and have a glass of whiskey when you are bored.

When he was at a loss what to do, Yuan Ben used wine to make food.

The kitchen is a place that needs to be focused. Every time he cooks, he seems to walk into a natural enchantment, and the turmoil seems to have passed away. In this world, there are only him and the pots and pans, and the delicacy in the pot delicacies.

He picked a beer, opened a bottle of red wine, and prepared to challenge a French dessert that he had seen during the day.

He killed an orange with a fruit knife, peeled and cut it into pieces, and peeled a little lemon peel for later use. He grabbed a handful of rock sugar, took some cinnamon star anise, threw a few blueberries into a small pot and boiled it with red wine. After that, boil it over low heat. At this moment, use a kitchen knife to peel the pears dry and quiet.

He put the pears into the bubbling red wine, stared at the heat of the small pot with his hands in his hands, his mind was empty, and he fell into a brief moment of peace.

What broke his tranquility was the notification tone of the WeChat video invitation, it was his colleague Qin Momo, he hesitated for a moment, but still picked it up.

The museum that Yuan Ben and Qin Momo entered at the same time has the same major. One is curating and the other is teaching. They work very well together. It is rare for them to complain in private on the same channel. This time he has a problem at work. Qin Mo Mo was even more angry than him, and turned upside down in the library, wanting to reverse the case for him.

"How are you doing, old Yuan." Qin Momo's face appeared on the screen, wearing a headscarf and glasses, with a sad face, it looked like he was at home rushing to draft.

"It's okay." Yuan Ben showed her the red wine and pears in the pot, "How are you?"

"Hey, I'm still in the mood to cook, so I don't think I'm going to die. I'm out of luck when you're off work. Chen Xiaomao knows me here except you. Now I'm taking over your job as a glorious foreign guest nanny." Qin Momo complained, "Isn't this just preparing for a weekend lecture?"

"That can't be helped, those who can do more work."

"By the way, Chen Xiaomao has been asking me for someone these two days. I don't know where you are. Hey, you haven't contacted him?"

"What to contact? I've been suspended."

"Don't play dumb." Qin Momo cast a glance at him, "Chen Xiaomao chases you so closely, why don't you think about it?"

"Uh..." Yuan Ben ignored her and concentrated on stirring his red wine.

Qin Momo: "Three years ago, you were with Xu Douxiao and ignored him, which was reasonable. Now that they have brought their fiancee over, can't you take a good look at our Chen Xiaomao?"

Yuan Ben: "Why didn't I look directly at her, every time I spoke I looked directly into his eyes, very focused and polite."

Qin Momo: "Don't come here. To be honest, I think he's a nice guy with a high degree of education. He's also handsome and personable. He also has a deep affection for you."

Yuan Ben: "He's so nice, come here. Aren't you begging to get out of the order every day?"

Qin Momo said to him: "I really want to. He is bent into a mosquito coil, and there is no possibility of coming back straight. I have been excluded from his range of choices since I was born."

Yuan Ben laughed out loud.

Qin Momo: "You tell the truth, Chen Xiaomao is not suitable."

Yuan Ben didn't speak.He took out a deep plate to put his dessert, purple pears were placed in the middle, oranges soaked with red wine were placed on the side, and Qin Momo was chattering on the phone with the residue of excess red wine on his side.

"Don't tell me you still think about Xu Douxiao? He already has a fiancee. As your good sister, I advise you to be sober!

Even if you don't like Chen Xiaomao, we can find someone else. If you don't want to find a man, there are many girls who like you.Do you remember Gu Miaomiao? "

"Remember, Huanying's family, what's the matter, I remember she resigned."

"She is well-off now. She came to the exhibition today, and she was blinded by that famous brand."

Qin Momo vividly described the luxurious and tasteful outfits of her former colleagues, "She still asked you."

"What did you say?"

"What can I say, I can only say that you are on vacation recently. You can't say that you were framed by garbage and suspended."

"and then?"

"Then, I don't know where she got the news. She knew that you were suspended. After making inquiries, she either hated you, wanted to be happy, or liked you."

"I just had a few meetings with her, don't talk nonsense."

"Brother, don't you usually look in the mirror? With your little face, you can be called the Tom Cruise of the literary world, okay? If I hadn't known that you had a boyfriend, I would have fantasized about you. "

"thank you."

"You're welcome." Qin Momo glanced down at WeChat, and smiled meaningfully, "Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, Miss Gu asked me for your contact information, I pushed your WeChat to her, it just so happens that you know me a lot If you know someone, if Bai Fumei takes care of you, don't forget the credit for my matchmaking."

Yuan Ben has long been used to her not being able to speak clearly: "I will never forget you, when the time comes, I will build you a small house on the roof of the garage to take care of yourself."

"Can I have a tree house?"

"I'll build you one on the lawn, too."

"Bah, who will take care of the nursing home for you."

"You are."

Qin Momo: "I can't beat you, well, it's great to be rich. By the way, where did you live after you moved out of the dormitory? I promise not to tell Chen Xiaomao, and you can tell me to make me feel at ease. "

Yuan Ben couldn't say, he couldn't tell his colleagues and friends that he lived in the house of his ex-boyfriend who already had a fiancée, right?

"What's going on? Why are you stuck? Is my signal bad?"

Yuan Ben was thinking about picking up the phone and hanging up, when the doorbell rang again.He thought it was Xu Douxiao who bought something, so he took Qin Momo to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, there were two girls standing behind the door, one was quiet and steady in a plain dress, the other was chic and capable in a white T-shirt and jeans.

It was Ning Jun and Tong Ling.

By the way, Ning Jun cried a lot at Xu Douxiao's house yesterday, and when she left, she still remembered to reset everything. She left from the executive's apartment, crying all the way, brushing the edge of the speed limit and driving to Tong Ling's house, twisting all the way. It's so crooked that it scares the cars on the road enough.

Tong Ling's first-level vigilance came in handy. She told her friends what she saw and heard, and drank a bottle of Jiang Xiaobai and a dozen beers with grievances. She cried and vomited faintly. I almost couldn't even get to work the next day.

Things have come to this point, Tong Ling doesn't know what to say anymore, her mother once taught her that people should not be too inquisitive, everyone has secrets, if you turn a blind eye, the world can still be peaceful Get along with each other, both eyes are open, the world is clear, there is no place for ghosts to hide, when you see the light, you also see the darkness, the dirty is always more than the clean, and this day can't go on.

But she has no regrets about Ning Jun. If she doesn't check, her friend will be cheated into marriage in a few minutes. There will be no bright future. She has seen this kind of thing on the Internet a lot. , Romantic and considerate before marriage, but indifferent and ruthless after marriage, even if she wants to divorce, she can't find the door. She can't let her sisters fall to that point.

"In this case, let's go to Xu Douxiao's house at the end." Tong Ling waved the wine bottle in her hand, "Anyway, I have already checked, so I just want to find out. I want to see what secrets his house has. , Do you want to hide your property, or hide your beauty in a golden house!"

So they stood here, facing Yuan Ben across a threshold.

The scene was too tense, and no one spoke for a while.

With her waist in her hands, Tong Ling asked with a stern look, "Why do you live in Xu Douxiao's house?"

"Fuck, old Yuan, you..." Qin Momo on the other side of the screen was also shocked, and couldn't help but sigh.

Yuan Ben sighed, and said to Qin Momo: "I have something to do, I will call you when I come back." He simply hung up the phone.

Just as he was about to explain, the elevator door opened with a "ding", and Xu Douxiao, who was supposed to be in a meeting outside, came out.
