将 错 就 错

As the Chinese New Year approaches, the streets are full of joy.Taking advantage of the discounted pork ribs, Mo Mo chose a few thin and straight ones, and picked two thick and juicy white radishes, ready to go back to stew the soup.Passing by the vegetable and fruit stand in the community, I bought a small handful of green onions, weighed three catties of emperor mandarin oranges for ten yuan, and went upstairs with the heavy bags in both hands.

With difficulty, he took out the key and opened the door, but the door was still locked when he left.No one at home.It was past three o'clock, and his cousin and landlord, Zhou Qing, was still off work.Mo Mo happened to have time to prepare dinner. Zhou Qing said the first day that he would bring his girlfriend over for dinner today.

Wash the pork ribs and put them in a large pot with water first, cut the radish with a hob for later use, and then put them into the pressure cooker together, so that you can drink hot soup when it comes out of the pot at the time of meal.The side dishes are a plate of spring rolls, a plate of fried Chinese cabbage with black fungus, and half a plate of roast chicken with chestnut left over from yesterday.

Mo Mo was busy in the kitchen. Hearing the sound of footsteps going upstairs and picking out the keys, he walked to the gate in three steps and two steps. He glanced through the cat's eyes and saw that it was Zhou Qing and his girlfriend Lei Lei. He immediately opened the door and smiled. Said: "I got off work very early today, sister Lei Lei is here too, come in quickly." He made way sideways and took the slippers for the two of them, only then did he see a young man standing behind them with his head bowed cautiously.

Zhou Qing changed his shoes and entered the door first, took out an extra pair of woolen slippers, and said to Mo Mo: "This is Lei Lei's younger brother, Luo Yu, so I brought him here to eat with no one at home." Mo Mo nodded, thankfully he cooked an extra Box rice, "There are few dishes, I'll go down and buy some lo-mei."

Lei Lei took Luo Yu's hand, "Don't bother, this kid eats less than me." At this time, Luo Yu had just changed his shoes and entered the room, raised his head and met Mo Mo's eyes, but then lowered his head after three seconds.

Mo Mo took a quick glance and saw that Luo Yu was a fair and handsome young man, and asked Zhou Qing who was standing at the door changing shoes in a low voice, "Why does Miss Lei Lei suddenly have a younger brother?"

Zhou Qing was so greedy that his eyes rolled and he said, "This kid is the younger brother of Lei Lei's childhood sweetheart, the older brother."

Mo Mo's mind also turned, and said, "Just the younger brother of your rival in love?" Then he greeted Luo Yu, "Hello."

Luo Yu raised his head when he heard the words: "Hi, excuse me."

Mo Mo went back to the kitchen and continued to work. Zhou Qing changed his coat at home and followed him. He lifted the lid of the pot, and a burst of meat smelled hot on his face: "It smells so good." As he spoke, he pulled out a pair of chopsticks to steal a meal, but was stopped by Mo Mo. "You haven't put any salt yet, so you're not afraid of burning your mouth."

Zhou Qinghou nodded anxiously.

"I cooked a lot of rice today, enough to eat."

When all the soup dishes were brought to the table, the four of them sat down one by one. Lei Lei said to Mo Mo: "I'm sorry to trouble you, but Xiaoyu has no one to take care of the food, so I had to come and rub it." Sitting opposite him, I could clearly see the shy and red face, I quickly shook my head and said, "It's not troublesome, there are more people eating and it's lively. Everyone eat more."

Lei Lei made ribs for Luo Yu, Zhou Qing made ribs for Lei Lei, and Mo Mo made a spring roll for herself.

Usually the three of them talked and laughed at dinner, but today there were outsiders around, so Mo Mo talked less, and Luo Yu didn't even ask questions.However, he eats vegetables very seriously, and he should really like to eat. Mo Mo is still very happy about this.

After Zhou Qing finished eating, he took a half bite of the spring rolls and sighed, "It's been a long time since I've had spring rolls, and they're really getting more and more expensive now. We used to go to that one, and now they're all $[-] each. How much did you pay for it?" "After speaking, the remaining half of the mouth went into the stomach.

Mo Mo said: "Twelve ten yuan, one yuan and two ones are not much cheaper. It's about the same if you add gas and oil."

After speaking, he found that the other three were all staring at him.

Mo Mo: "...?"

Lei Lei covered her mouth and pretended not to smile, Luo Yu also lowered her head to eat, and it was Zhou Qing who said, "Eight cents. Your math is taught by your physical education teacher."

Mo Mo chuckled, "I taught myself." By the way, he flattered Zhou Qing, "Brother Qing is indeed Brother Qing."

"Those who didn't know thought you praised me."

A joke was unintentionally made, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.Even Luo Yu, who didn't talk much during the meal, sincerely praised the food as delicious.It was still early after dinner, Lei Lei sent Zhou Qing to clean up and wash the dishes, and pulled Luo Yu and Mo Mo to sit and watch TV.The main reason was that Lei Lei was asking about Luo Yu's situation. Mo Mo had been busy all afternoon, so he had time to take out his phone to check. There were hundreds of messages in the game QQ group.

"Is your brother busy recently?"

Hearing Lei Lei mentioning Zhou Qing's "rival in love", Mo Mo pricked up her ears vigilantly.

"Well, I haven't seen him much recently."

"Why didn't Mama Wu do it?"

"Mama Wu kept talking about introducing someone to him, so..."

Lei Lei frowned, "Hey, my mom and dad went out to play, and I don't know when I'll be back. I wish I could cook."

Luo Yu shook his head: "At my age, I won't starve to death."

"You can't die from hunger. With your small body, you don't know where to find you when the wind blows."

Luo Yu licked his lips, he hadn't had home-cooked pork rib soup for a long time, and the aroma of flesh and blood seemed to remain on his lips and teeth.This made him involuntarily peek at Mo Mo.With a handsome face and short hair, he has a well-regulated appearance that can't go wrong.

"Let's talk about it, it's almost Chinese New Year and it's hard to find someone."

They ate their meals and chatted about their daily routines. It was not too early for Zhou Qing to send Lei Lei and Luo Yu back.Mo Mo hurriedly grabbed Zhou Qing and said in a low voice, "There are still a lot of ribs in the pot, you can fill them out for Sister Lei Lei."

Zhou Qing naturally understood what Mo Mo meant and patted him on the shoulder.

"Hurry up, Zhou Qing, what are you touching?" Leilei and Luo Yu urged at the door after changing their shoes.

"Here we come." Zhou Qing handed the insulated box to Luo Yu and said, "The pot just started, you can eat it tomorrow after heating it up." Where did Luo Yu have the nerve to pick it up, Lei Lei took it over with a smile, "Here , be polite to us all day long."

Luo Yu just took it with both hands, "Thank you."

Zhou Qing came back later than expected, braving the foolishness and joy that are typical of people in love.

"Is this a close relationship with Miss Lei Lei?"

Zhou Qing shook his head stupidly, "Not yet, not yet. But when will you have a date?"

The problem of people in love is that everything they think can be paired.

After Zhou Qing went to wash up, Mo Mo secretly thought about this problem, and there was no solution for the time being, so he could only continue to be single.Zhou Qing came out of the bathroom, sat next to him, and asked casually while wiping his hair, "Have you found a suitable job?"

"not yet."

It has been two months since Mo Mo resigned in a fit of anger at the end of the year.Zhou Qing lived with him and didn't ask him for rent, so he took the initiative to pay for utilities and vegetables.Now that he is squatting at home, Zhou Qing has arranged all these living expenses in advance, and he has become a veritable rice bug.Mo Mo's frustration is obvious, Zhou Qing didn't mention it any more, and instead said: "When I left, Lei Lei praised me for being considerate."

"I see that you are so happy, it's not just a compliment."

Zhou Qing glanced at him, "I don't think much about it. By the way, there is something I would like to ask you to help me with."

"What, so polite." Mo Mo stared at Zhou Qing warily.

Zhou Qing chuckled, and said embarrassedly, "That's right, it's that Luo Yu just now, their house... no one cooks, I want to invite you over..." Seeing Mo Mo put down his phone and stare at him with frowns, Zhou Qing Qing hurriedly explained, "I thought of the solution in a hurry, and pretended that I didn't say anything."

"Just to cook?"

"Well, I'm too embarrassed to tell you this, and I'm afraid that Lei Lei will ask you first."

"What's the big deal, it's making me nervous."

"It's not because I'm afraid you'll think too much. I've asked all the questions that need to be asked, so Luo Yu starts school and only cooks dinner. I go back in the afternoon and come back in the evening, but I don't have a rest. I'm sure you won't be treated badly in terms of money."

Mo Mo smiled, "You still don't tell me such a good thing. Even if Luo Yu doesn't give it to me, since Sister Lei Lei mentioned this matter, according to her personality, I won't suffer."

"I'm afraid you don't mind. I'll tell Lei Lei later that you can go after you confirm the time."

"I heard them chatting just now, what's the situation at Luo Yu's house?"

Zhou Qing said, "Luo Yu's elder brother is that Luo Yin. He has no relationship in his late thirties. The former Wu Ma of their family was always nagging. Luo Yin let her go when she was upset. I have to admit that , Luo Yin is good at everything, but has a bad temper, fortunately, Lei Lei's parents always want him to be a son-in-law, and they are not afraid of attracting wolves into the house."

"Hey, wait..." Is this how to lure a wolf into a house?Mo Mo didn't have time to complain, and then heard Zhou Qing say, "Look at Luo Yu being so shy and timid, it was all scared by Luo Yin. But fortunately, Luo Yin is often away from home, so you probably wouldn't be able to meet him in the past. Stay away. Luo Yu is easy to get along with, a very good child."

"Okay, you've said that, and I have nothing to worry about."

This matter is settled for the time being.It's just that after he met Luo Yin, he regretted that he had spoken too early.
