Chapter 7
Brother Chao on the other end of the phone seemed to have not woken up, and said in a daze, "Rickshaw? Yes, what's the matter? What are you borrowing this for?"
Yanxi originally wanted to express the urgency of the situation with the four big characters of human life and nature, but he was afraid that the sign-in system would be exposed, so he could only say: "If you are a brother, don't ask, get the car to the gate of the community for me, and treat you to a big meal later .”
"Big meal? What kind of big meal can you get, boy, all right, for the sake of Goddess Huamo, when will you use the car?"
"Enough loyalty! Just deliver it around twelve o'clock."
There are still more than three hours before twelve o'clock. He figured that if he can stay at home for a while, he will have less chance to spend money, and at least he can avoid the big pit of lunch.
He said to Hua Mo: "Going out to play today, don't you want to put on your makeup? I won't rush you this time. When will I finish painting and when will I go out? I'll cook first."
"Hey, when did you become so considerate, and you still want me to draw?"
"Don't be in a hurry today, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry."
"Uncle has the final say on whether to be in a hurry, right?" She said to uncle.
"No hurry, no hurry, you draw yours, I'll catch up with TV dramas first." The uncle sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, choosing a popular drama.
A big prompt popped up on the TV: "The latest episode of this show is only for VIP viewing, please scan the QR code to pay to become a VIP."
"Uncle, come, give me a fix." The uncle handed him the remote control.
Unexpectedly, there is a risk of spending money while squatting at home. If you sweep this code, the scene of yourself exploding will definitely be unforgettable for the uncle, but how can you tactfully refuse?
Within a second, he was thinking of ways to break the move, wondering if he could save the situation by relying on the brat.
He said loudly: "Ah, why is the TV remote control not working? Pearl, did you break it?"
Pearl put down the toy in her hand, ran over with a ding ding dong, and said, "I didn't break it, give it to me!"
He handed the remote control to her, and then, as expected, she yelled through the voice function: "Little hero in pajamas."
The TV also responded: "Okay, I will play Heroes in Pajamas for you right away."
"Uh, Pearl is good, you can't steal my grandpa's TV show." He criticized with his mouth, but his heart was so happy.
"It's okay, let her watch it, I'll check my phone." The uncle sat next to Pearl and looked at his phone.
The crisis is over, and you can cook with peace of mind.
He took out a bag of vegetarian mutton fried rice from the refrigerator and poured it into the pot, took some eggs and boiled it, and then cooked some noodles for Pearl, thinking, so much, it should be enough to eat.
With brunch almost ready, he invited everyone to sit down and eat.
Hua Mo's face is half drawn, one eye is big and the other is small, it looks quite funny.
The uncle ate with a sullen head while staring at the phone, giggling.
Pearl sat motionless on the sofa and said, "Dad, come and feed me."
Normally, he would definitely get angry, either by threatening to turn off the TV or by buying toys as a temptation, but today he pampered this little guy very much, the slower she ate, the happier he was.
He fed the noodles one by one, and she ate them one by one, her mouth moved mechanically, and her eyes fell completely on the cartoon.
Hua Mo was a little angry, and shouted to Pearl: "Eat big! Chew and swallow quickly! If you slow down, I will turn off the TV for you."
"What are you shouting about on the big weekend? Anyway, I'm not in a hurry. If you scare her, it will affect her digestion." He didn't allow Zhenzhu to finish eating in two bites, and then clamored to go out.
After the uncle finished eating, he took the bowls and chopsticks and went to the sink.
He immediately stopped him from a distance: "Uncle, just put it there, I'll clean it up, you don't have to worry about it."
The uncle said: "It's okay, I packed it up very quickly."
What I am most afraid of now is to be fast, and today I must firmly control the rhythm no matter what.
He said: "There are some problems with the sink in my house. You must not be able to fix it. Leave it for me to fix it for a while, or it will really be a disservice."
With such rhetoric, the uncle really didn't dare to mess with it anymore. He returned to the sofa with his mobile phone and continued to play with his mobile phone honestly.
After feeding the pearls and eating my portion of the meal, I slowly cleared the table and looked at the watch, 11:30.
Great, one-third of the mission's countdown has passed, and persistence is victory.
At twelve o'clock sharp, brother Chao pulled the rickshaw to the gate of the community on time and called him to come.
"Let me tell you, today is the weekend, and the owner of the car has to pay seven or eight hundred yuan. I bought the car for you. You should think about how to pay back this favor." Brother Chao kindly reminded he.
"Understood, the kindness of a drop of water will be reciprocated by the spring, you and your buddies can rest assured, satisfaction is guaranteed." He guaranteed the ticket.
"When will it be used up? All I can say is that I can borrow it for one day, and don't delay people's work tomorrow."
"Give me the address, and I'll send it to you when it's used up tonight."
Brother Chao wrote him an address and contact number, and then left.
Sitting in the rickshaw, he sent a message to Hua Mo: "Daughter-in-law, bring uncle and Pearl down after packing up, I'll wait for you at the door."
Don't look at Hua Mo's impatience, but the concept of time is very bad. There is no difference between waiting for 1 minute and actually waiting for half an hour.
But this time, he wished she would take a little longer, hey, everything is under control.
The sun was warm at twelve o'clock, and a car drove past the gate of the community from time to time. The low engine sound was a little hypnotic, and he actually fell asleep.
"Wake up, you sleep here, you can live a good life." It turned out that Hua Mo and the others had arrived.
He let the three of them get into the car, sat in the driver's seat, stepped on the pedal, and shouted: "Let's go!"
But the first foot didn't move.
"Uncle, is it too heavy? Would you like me to come down and push it for you?" asked the uncle.
"No, I can do it." He stood up, pressed all his weight of more than 150 kilograms on a pedal, creaked, and finally started.
"You want to get a rickshaw so much?" Hua Mo asked.
"Isn't the rickshaw the authentic culture of the imperial capital? And it's not afraid of traffic jams. It has a panoramic view and can be parked at any time. In terms of visiting the imperial capital, even a Ferrari is not as convenient." He boasted unconscionably.
"Where are we going?"
"The first stop is through Yongdingmen, to Zhaojialou, to see the site of the first New Culture Movement."
"It's not close, are you sure you're going to ride all the way there?"
Of course it's not close, but what else can I do besides riding over it?Heartbroken, he still had to smile, and he said, "Don't worry, what a big deal, 30 years of cooking is not for nothing."
"Uncle, if you're tired, just switch to me for a while. Uncle usually does physical work, so he has plenty of strength." Uncle felt sorry for him and kindly persuaded him.
"No, Uncle is a distinguished guest, so just sit and enjoy the scenery with peace of mind." He persisted, gritting his teeth, against the light, facing the wind, and kicked forward vigorously.
"Father, speed up, drive!" Pearl said happily in the seat.
