Chapter 8: Some pasts never want to be mentioned again

Some people, after parting, do not want to see each other forever, and some people never want to talk about the past once they have gone through it! But the world is always so wonderful, the more you try to forget something, the more someone will force you to remember it.

And those people especially like to be complacent that they have witnessed the worst you have ever been, and they even pretend that nothing has happened, and poke hard at that point that you force yourself to forget,

I won't feel at ease until I see your old disease oozing blood.

Li Manrui searched back and forth in the direction pointed by the driver for a while, only to see a very narrow facade with the name XX Northern Famous Food on the door plate. I walked in and took a look, it was just an ordinary takeaway shop.

There were a few small tables inside, and there were quite a few guests. Although it was past lunch time, there were still four or five people queuing up.

Li Manrui looked up at the menu posted on the wall, and found the Roujiamo and Liangpi that her son wanted.

It's midsummer now, although Li Manrui came by taxi, but after walking around the shop for so long, she broke out in a fine sweat, and looking at the stuffy shop in this small shop, I really can't understand that there is someone on such a hot day. Queued here for a Roujiamo!

Li Manrui herself is a southerner. She went to City B to study. Although she stayed in City B for more than ten years, she was not used to eating pasta, but her son liked it. She was not by his side for so many years.

Whenever I want to cook something delicious for him, I always have no idea because I am not good at cooking. It's rare to come to Chinatown to buy him one this time, so thinking about it makes me feel relieved.

"Next, what do you want?" Li Manrui was soon in line, and the cashier asked, taking a pen and paper to write a list.

"Two roujia buns, oh no, four roujia buns, let's take another piece of Liangpi and take them away~" Li Manrui thought that her son would rarely eat it once, so she bought a few more.

After buying the Roujiamo and Liangpi, Li Manrui bought some bread from the bakery next to her, and she chose a soft, glutinous and delicious one and put it in her bag. From the morning to now, she hasn't even dropped any water.

Now her body doesn't allow her to make any mistakes, thinking that when she arrives at the hospital later, she will find another excuse to go out to eat. When she came out, she saw a small garden next to the hospital.

Carrying a large bag and a small bag in her hand, Li Manrui walked cautiously, afraid that the juice of Roujiamo would flow onto her bag. No matter how careful she walked, there was no way she could avoid others walking without looking.

A middle-aged woman walked and turned around, bumping into her and staggering. She widened her eyes, and was about to get angry at the person who came when she saw a face that she never planned to see again in her life, nor did she want to see her again.

"Oh, isn't this Mary? I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you here!" The middle-aged woman said loudly with a look of surprise.

"Oh, sorry, I don't seem to know you!"

Li Manrui pretended not to know the woman in front of her, and even forgot to scold her for not having long eyes. She spread her legs and planned to leave as soon as possible, but who would have thought that the woman reached out and grabbed her arm.

"Oh? You don't remember me, do you? We used to work in a massage parlor together back then. I'm Sister Sun!" The woman's exaggerated voice sounded again, causing many passersby to look at her.

The corners of Li Manrui's mouth curled slightly, and she forced a smile: "Oh, so it's Sister Sun! Long time no see!"

"Isn't it? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's find a place to sit and reminisce. You haven't seen each other for so many years. You seem to have changed a lot!" Said this sister Sun, pointing exaggeratedly. Li Manrui exclaimed in admiration for her custom-made suit.

"I'm sorry, I still have something to do, next time!" Li Manrui said coldly.

"Oh, take a look, it's not the same if you haven't seen it for a few years. I remember that you married an old man in his 70s for the sake of identity. Those women in the store don't know how much they envy you.

Looking at your outfit, you must have made a fortune, right? "Sister Sun said yin and yang angrily, and winked at Li Manrui.

"It's okay, I'm just lucky, the old man died a long time ago, and he left me a large inheritance!" Li Manrui lazily dealt with this woman again, blinked her eyelids, and tugged the corners of her mouth as if showing off.

"Oh, then you are so lucky!" After listening to Li Manrui's words, Sister Sun twitched at the corners of her mouth. She could no longer pretend to be enthusiastic, and walked away with a sour face. The person who just said she wanted to sit together. , I didn't even say goodbye when I left.

Li Manrui watched the annoying old woman walk away, a triumphant smile on the corner of her mouth! This is the inferiority of overseas Chinese compatriots. If you are good at it, they will be jealous of you, if you are bad, they will ridicule and ridicule you!

How could Li Manrui give her a chance to laugh? Besides, the current self is far from someone like her who can laugh at her!

Li Manrui has been in the United States for 8 years. When she first arrived here, she had no money and no identity. She wanted to go to a restaurant to be a waiter. She didn't want to leave New York, a metropolis full of possibilities. shop.

Before she went there, although she also thought that work was definitely not as simple as it said on the surface, but she really saw the filth inside and was so frightened that she wanted to rush out the door.

I think she is a top student from a famous foreign language college in China, but she went to the United States to get a massage because of her status. In my heart, I don't know that it is tens of thousands of times more aggrieved than when I was assigned to do idle work in the administrative department.

At that time, she secretly made up her mind that no matter what, she must solve the problem of identity as soon as possible, and then use her advantages to find a decent job and show her personal appearance to the people in China!

It was at that time that she met the person who could solve her identity. UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com An Italian immigrant in his 70s, his wife died a few years ago, and he rented out two buildings in East Bronk. He lived in his house, had no children, and was alone.

The old man pays great attention to maintenance and enjoyment, and he will go to the massage parlor in Flushing to enjoy a 45-minute massage every once in a while.

Although the old man has lived in the United States for decades, because Europeans are not very aware of tips, he is more calculated when tipping, sometimes even less than 15%, so fewer employees are willing to accept him.

And Li Manrui was a newcomer, so this kind of laborious but low-earning work was naturally pushed to her.

Li Manrui didn't have any thoughts at first, she just wanted to do her best to finish her work, and her mind was relatively calm. The old man is usually alone at home and no one chats, so while massaging, he chats with Li Manrui.

There are not many people who can speak English in this line of work, and they can only speak a little bit. The old man has never seen English as good as Li Manrui, so the more he talks, the more speculative he becomes. It becomes a visit every three or five days.

One day the old man came to see Li Manrui again, and Li Manrui was arguing with the boss because he was unwilling to serve an excessive customer, so when he was doing a massage for the old man next, he told the old man his difficulties and asked the old man if he could help she.

After listening to Li Manrui's words, the old man was silent for a while, and finally said:

"I have a solution, but I don't know if it will offend you!"

"What can you do, let's hear it, as long as you can help me change my current situation."

Li Manrui's heartbeat was fast at that time. She had a hunch that the old man's next words should be able to change her situation, and even completely change her life!
