Lingzi is not too cold today

Chapter 73 New part-time jobs
As always, Gongsun Jin met at the cafeteria stall.

Zhong Lingzi came to the stall, her face without makeup looked extraordinarily pure.

She didn't seem to be sleeping very well, she had dark circles around her eyes, and her hair was a bit messy.

"Is it still clear soup ramen?"

"Are you still short of people here?"

Zhong Lingzi's answer was somewhat unexpected.

Zhong Lingzi subconsciously looked at the proprietress.

The proprietress smiled and said: "There is a girl in the sophomore year who has been busy recently and hasn't done anything yet. I just need one."

"Come in and talk."

Gongsun Jin looked at her and said softly.

"Um!"

Zhong Lingzi was a little overjoyed, and trotted into the back kitchen.

It costs 600 yuan a month plus food, and the working hours are not too long. She is very satisfied with this part-time job.

Gongsun Jin is responsible for teaching her the specific content of the work.

That day, I taught kneading noodles and making steamed stuffed buns.

Zhong Lingzi often goes to the kitchen at home, works diligently and learns things quickly.

After Gongsun Jin taught for a while, she did well, and the proprietress also praised her for her agile hands and feet.

When someone came to the stall to eat noodles, Gongsun Jin personally demonstrated and taught her to order.

"When issuing the receipt, align the receipt with the sawtooth at the bottom and tear it off, and it will be neat. Don't tear it upwards."

"After giving the receipts to the old classmates who ordered, put the remaining half on the table, and call their numbers after they are done in order. This one is number 94, you can call it."

Gongsun Jin handed her the ticket No. 94.

"The sound must be loud. There are many people in the cafeteria, so the sound is low, and the students who are eating can't hear it."

"it is good."

Zhong Lingzi took the receipt and shouted loudly: "No. 94, the beef sliced ​​noodles are ready."

The girl's voice was full of air and resonant.

She is usually a resident singer, so naturally she doesn't suffer from stage fright, and her voice can be relaxed.

"Okay, that's the voice."

The lady boss smiled and nodded.

"It's four, a flat tongue, not a raised tongue."

Gongsun Jin corrected solemnly.

Zhong Lingzi blushed a little upon hearing this.

"It's the same in our place, Mandarin is not good, and I can't tell the difference between flat and tongue."

"I haven't taken my Mandarin certificate yet."

Gongsun Jin looked at her quietly for a while, Zhong Lingzi felt a little unnatural, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

He reached out and straightened the work cap on her head for her.

"The hat is on the wrong side."

Zhong Lingzi was wearing an apron and hat, she looked a little dull, without the vigor and aura she used to look like.

"The tray is about to be collected."

cried the proprietress.

"Ok."

Gongsun Jin nodded, and began to take her to collect the tableware again.

"Use this cart to collect tableware. Be careful when pushing it. There is a broken wheel underneath, so it will twist left and right."

"All the tableware is placed in the dishwashing room. When I went in, the aunt asked, and she said it was at stall 308. They would sort the tableware into baskets, and just take them according to the number."

While talking, Gongsun Jin came to pick out the bowls and chopsticks from the basket and stack them on the cart.

"There is also the dinner plate, which is the black square plate at the bottom, which is used to put the bowl. That thing is on the side of the aunt who cleans up the leftovers, and we need to go to the other side to get it."

"The dishes underneath are not cleaned in the dishwashing room, we need to wipe them ourselves."

"The dinner plates are generally relatively clean. If some students get dirty, we need to clean them."

Gongsun Jin taught her the precautions patiently and carefully.

"It's dirty over there, so you don't need to do it. Leave it to me."

The stench of swill filled the trash can where leftovers were thrown out, making one sick to the stomach.

Gongsun Jin frowned slightly, and called to Zhong Lingzi to stop.

"It's okay, I'm not as delicate as you think."

Zhong Lingzi stepped forward nonchalantly, knelt down on the edge of the counter, and picked up the dinner plate.

The trash can full of leftovers was right next to her, and thick grease was floating on the colorful soup.

When Gongsun Jin approached, his stomach churned.

But the girl looked as usual, and patiently collected the thick stack of dinner plates, and then picked them up.

There was a little greasy on the dinner plate, and it was on the work apron she was wearing.

The girls who used to work part-time at the cafeteria stalls were reluctant to do these things because they were too dirty.

"When working part-time, don't wear white clothes, it will get dirty easily."

Gongsun Jin reminded.

"fine."

Zhong Lingzi didn't seem to be struggling while holding the heavy stack of dinner plates.

"I'm not a phoenix from a rich family."

Her words were as free and easy and indifferent as ever.

Gongsun Jin nodded slightly.

She is a material for gold inlaid jade, but unfortunately there is no Longmen Inn, and I don't know if I can meet Zhou Huaian.

"Put it on the cart, it's so hard to hold."

"oh oh."

The girl realized it later, so she put the dinner plate on the cart and coded it.

The cart was not stable, and it was loaded with cutlery and plates. Gongsun Jin was pulling it, and looked back from time to time.

Zhong Lingzi bent down slightly, and reached out to hold the tableware to prevent them from falling.

The two of them were busy putting the tableware into the stall just like this.

Taking advantage of the arrival of the peak meal time, Gongsun Jin hastened the time to make noodles, and made some steamed buns and put them in the steamer.

"The buns you made are a bit ugly, I think it's hard to sell them."

Looking at the steamed stuffed bun with the general's stomach in the steamer, Gongsun Jin said to Zhong Lingzi seriously.

"Can't sell it, I ate it myself, okay?"

Zhong Lingzi wiped the dinner plate with a rag, gave him a blank look, and said angrily.

The way she rolls her eyes is not annoying, it is very cute, and she is playful like a girl.

On this proud and cold girl, she rarely showed the delicacy of a girl.

"I'm afraid you'll die."

Gongsun Jin said calmly.

"You two can eat together, haha."

The proprietress smiled softly.

Zhong Lingzi is not afraid of getting dirty when working, unlike other girls who are delicate and beautiful, she likes it very much.

Catch up with the rush hour for dinner after evening classes, Gongsun Jin started pulling noodles, while Zhong Lingzi stood at the front desk of the stall ordering and yelling loudly.

"No. 37, beef ramen is ready!"

"No. 42, beef fried ramen is ready!"

"It's four, say four (si) after me."

Gongsun Jin turned her head and corrected.

"Oh, you can do what you want, I don't speak Mandarin very well."

Zhong Lingzi was a little embarrassed, and seemed impatient.

Gongsun Jin took the receipt and shouted in very standard Mandarin: "No. 42, beef fried ramen is ready."

The proprietress was cooking soup, watching the two smiling, without saying a word.

The classmate who came to pick up the pasta glanced at the two of them and said with a smile, "I want to correct it too, it's four (si)."

Gongsun Jin looked at Zhong Lingzi, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Zhong Lingzi turned her face away, and lightly wrinkled her delicate Qiong nose.

Waves of people ordering food during peak hours are as many as zombies in endless mode in Plants vs. Zombies.

When the two of them got busy, their feet didn't touch the ground, and they were a little overwhelmed.

Zhong Lingzi once again turned Si Nian into shi, and the girls in the team shouted loudly. "Four is si, ten is shi."

Immediately there was a smile on his face.

"Is there any difference?"

Zhong Lingzi looked helpless, looked at the few receipts on the table, picked out a few and handed them to Gongsun Jin.

"Here, these few, you come to read."

Gongsun Jin took a look at it, and found that there were four in it, and smiled slightly.

"Number 46! Sliced ​​noodles are ready!"

Zhong Lingzi still didn't hear the difference.

After finishing their busy meal in the afternoon, the two of them prepared to eat in the back kitchen.

"Hehe, let Xiaojin cook for you today's dinner. The noodles he made are delicious."

The proprietress looked at Zhong Lingzi and said with a smile.

"Xiao Jin, put more meat on her, she's quite thin."

"thank you boss!"

Zhong Lingzi smiled happily, then looked at Gongsun Jin.

"She doesn't like meat, but ramen in clear soup. Every time she comes to our stall, she eats clear soup."

Gongsun Jin said calmly.

"Who said I don't like food? I want beef ramen!"

Zhong Lingzi's eyes widened, and he quickly shook his head.

"Xiaosheng, do you deserve beef too?"

Gongsun Jin said teasingly.

"Ah! I don't care, I want to eat meat."

Perhaps because she found another job, she seemed to be in a good mood. In front of Gongsun Jin, she also started acting wild like other girls.

Gongsun Jin didn't respond, but just made a big bowl of noodles.

The last soup was put in, and then several Chaoshan beef balls were sandwiched openly, and a large spoonful of beef was scooped.

In the past, when he cooked noodles for Zhong Lingzi, he would secretly hide two meatballs underneath.

Zhong Lingzi looked at the extraordinarily rich beef noodles in front of him, and clapped his hands excitedly.

"This beef is probably enough for Master Kong to go bankrupt."

Gongsun Jin and the proprietress listened and laughed together.

The buns in the steamer are already out of the pan, steaming hot and very fragrant.

"Look at what you did, is that how I teach?"

Gongsun Jin picked out several buns made by Zhong Lingzi individually, and fired Bao Ji.

Zhong Lingzi looked at the steamed buns in the bowl and smiled there too.

"It's fine if it's delicious."

She picked up a sauced meat bun, took a bite, and felt very satisfied.

"Oh~ delicious! I think I can wrap it well."

Gongsun Jin didn't speak, just took the buns and ate them silently.

After eating the staff meal, the two took off their hats and work aprons, put them backstage, and left the cafeteria together.

The campus at night was very quiet, neither of them spoke as they walked.

Zhong Lingzi regained that cold expression on his face, and the smile from the cafeteria stall was gone.

After a long time, Gongsun Jin asked, "Are you unhappy recently?"

"Huh? Is there? I look unhappy?"

Zhong Lingzi smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"I used to be like you. When I was unhappy, I always tried hard to laugh."

Gongsun Jin lowered his head and looked at the road under his feet, and said softly.

He is obviously cool by nature, not a person who likes to laugh.

Hey, he tried to convince himself that he was really happy.

But in a way of self-deception to talk about masturbation nothing more.

"Haha, no way. You think too much."

Zhong Lingzi continued to smile.

"You're not one to laugh, I know that."

Gongsun Jin said calmly.

When he was at the cafeteria stall today, he saw a lot of smiles on her face, which was different from before.

"Then I don't laugh, what should I do? Should I cry?"

Zhong Lingzi gave him a blank look.

"Laughing is also a day, crying is also a day, why do you cry all day with a sad face?"

She put her hands in her pockets and walked gracefully.

When he arrived at the fork in the road, he waved his hands without looking back, leaving him with a cool back.

Gongsun Jin took two steps and stopped to look at her.

Seeing her thin back gradually disappearing into the darkness, he left.

On the way back to the dormitory, Zhong Lingzi stood under the street lamp and took out a cigarette from the shriveled cigarette case.

After lighting it, I took two deep breaths and then coughed.

I smoked a lot today and my throat started to hurt.
