Three hundred and forty-nine: continue under the leading edge
Walking down the aisle of this noodle shop, you will understand that the success of a noodle shop does not depend on its number of people, dishes or prices, but on the shirtless man sitting on the left with his undershirt pulled up to his chest.
Steaming people making noodles; and the mother-in-law and granddaughter sitting on the right. They ordered a bowl of vegetable noodles and ate them slowly in the cool air from the fan; or they were sitting in the corner chewing their ears.
Young couples and middle-aged office workers taking a break from their busy schedule came out to have a try.
There are not many people, but it is wide.
"Would you be angry if I asked you about the suspension?" Brother Haoyi raised four fingers, "That's a whole four years."
Xiao Se pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but then shook his head slightly: "If you do something wrong in public, you have to bear it yourself. Four years is a long time, but it is not forever. I can afford to wait."
"Hey, then I'm more curious. What do you plan to do in the next four years? Live broadcast?"
"I haven't thought about this yet." Xiao Se looked around.
"Why are you still chatting here? There are not enough people today!" A familiar figure appeared in front of Xiao Se, holding two bowls of steaming noodles in his hands.
Brother Haoyi stood up quickly: "Didn't you meet an acquaintance? Mom, let me do this while you go and work in the kitchen."
"Mom...ahem, auntie, let me help too." Xiao Se quickly changed his words as he spoke.
My mother shook her head repeatedly: "You are a guest, how embarrassing that is."
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Xiao Se still brought the noodles over.
"Okay, let's do that. Auntie will treat you to some noodles later to keep you satisfied."
"Thank you, auntie."
"Mom, is this correct? The two large bowls of beef noodles are from table three. Didn't he just finish eating?" Brother Hao Yi looked at the order. Table three was the burly man dressed casually.
.
"It's probably because of the large appetite. Don't worry about it for now. I'll go back and cook two more bowls later. You can bring them to the mother-in-law and grandson at table 8. The little girl is still growing at such a young age. She only eats vegetables and no meat.
That's fine, don't ask for money." Mother said, wiped her hands on the scarf, turned around and entered the steamer-like kitchen.
So Brother Haoyi didn't ask any more questions, stood up and left, followed closely by Xiao Se.
Although the two people are similar in stature, the difference can be seen in the way they walk face to face. The one in front is steady and the one in the back is staggering. Fortunately, Xiao Se adjusted in time and didn't make a joke.
When he "overcame all difficulties" and walked to table No. 8, the man had already taken out the banknotes and was ready to pay.
"Well, little brother, please help me deliver these two bowls of beef noodles to that little girl and grandma. The elderly need to eat better as they get older, and the children need to eat more meat as they grow older. The money is mine."
Xiao Se was startled. Doesn't this coincide with Mom's idea? Maybe this is the connection between good people. Just when he thought that the next plot would be "Brother Haoyi gives them free orders and promotes the truth, kindness and beauty of the noodle shop"
, Brother Haoyi did not do this.
"Okay, then we will give you a 20% discount, and you can pay a total of thirty-five." Brother Hao Yi skillfully made change for the customer.
The man said thank you and stood up to leave.
"Hey, although this guy looks a bit rough on the outside, he has a delicate mind. He and my mother want to be together."
Now Xiao Se couldn't help but ask: "In that case, why don't you waive all their bills?"
Brother Haoyi said: "You don't understand this. I have met many such kind people in noodle shops. This bowl of noodles only costs more than ten yuan. Most people who are willing to order for others don't care about this. They care more.
What I feel is the pleasure of helping others. If I give him a free payment, I will deprive him of his happiness. This is called harming others without benefiting oneself."
Xiao Se nodded confusedly and asked, "Then, what are you going to say to the mother-in-law and grandson?"
Brother Haoyi smiled mysteriously: "Look."
Brother Hao Yi was seen holding two bowls of beef noodles firmly in his hands, walking to table No. 8 and putting them down gently.
"Hello, mother-in-law, today is the eighth anniversary of our opening, so any table number containing 8 will have two free bowls of beef noodles. You eat slowly, and you can call me if you need it." After saying that, he didn't give it to his mother-in-law.
If they were given any chance to refuse, they would turn around and leave.
The mother-in-law seemed a little at a loss. After Xiao Se and Brother Hao Yi left, she looked around again. After making sure that there was no problem, she tremblingly picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pass the beef in the bowl to her granddaughter.
Unexpectedly, the girl covered the mouth of the bowl with her little hands, shook her head like a rattle, and said: "It's too much, I can't eat it."
Xiao Se looked at this scene with an unspeakable feeling in his heart.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Brother Hao Yi stood on the side.
"A little," he said.
"Don't talk about this world, there are too many poor people in the entire city, and we can't help you. Many people and many books will tell you that within 360 lines, you will be number one, but you and I know very well
, It’s hard to make a difference in this small noodle shop. Even if we want to help others, we can only give some small favors for eating." The door was pushed open, and another customer came in, saying with a loud voice: "Here, come on.
Big bowl of noodles! Add more noodles!”
"Okay, please wait!" Brother Haoyi also responded in a loud voice.
Seeing this, Xiao Se suddenly had an idea, "Aren't you short of manpower here? Why don't I work here for a while."
Brother Haoyi was stunned and stared at him: "Are you serious?"
"There is such a will."
"impossible."
"Why?" Xiao Se was stunned. He thought Brother Hao Yi would accept it happily.
"Do you know why our noodle shop is always understaffed? It's because my mother doesn't want to hire people, especially young people like you. In this day and age, who is willing to work in a noodle shop except relatives and friends? Some young people, only high school graduates,
Those who graduated wanted to work here, but my mother drove them away. In her words, there is nothing wrong with being young." Brother Haoyi said while wiping the table quickly.
"Not even a part-time job?" Xiao Se still didn't give up.
"I know what you are thinking. You are just like those who have just graduated from high school. Hey, you think working in a small noodle shop is not bad. You live a leisurely life and can occasionally explore the truth, goodness and beauty between people. But
Listen to me, most of the time here, there is nothing but boredom. Your four years are equivalent to other people’s four years of college and should be used to enrich yourself instead of going to a noodle shop to experience life."
Brother Hao Yi turned around and looked at Xiao Se, "Although you are better at Dota than me, my actual age is still much older than you, and I am more than enough to be your brother. Take my advice, your stage is better than this one."
Bigger. So, I strongly object to you coming to work here."
Listening to the slightly chattering but extremely sincere words, Xiao Se thought for a moment that he had returned to the past. Brother Haoyi was still the steady elder brother, and he was still the young boy, but he was still young at that time.
Sensible, but now the two are strangers.
"Four years from now, I probably won't be here anymore. A small noodle shop can support me, but it can't support a family." Brother Haoyi walked out carrying the customer's large plate of noodles.
Indeed, despite all the pretense and halo, almost all service industries are inherently boring jobs.
Xiao Se stayed here until very late, until the noodle shop closed. Of course, in the end he got a full bowl of waist belly noodles with rich ingredients.

"Where have you decided to go?" Brother Hao Yi smiled and closed the door.
"Think about it." Xiao Se said.
"Well, I wish you good luck, and I hope to see you back on the court again in the future."
"There will be a chance."
My mother came over at this time. The smile lines on her face and the slight silver hair on her temples revealed a bit of the vicissitudes of time.
"Does the noodles taste okay?" she asked.
Xiao Se nodded sincerely: "It's very delicious, as good as what my mother makes."
"So, your mother's craftsmanship is pretty good? Haha, look at what I said, I'm actually praising myself."
