Tell a story

On this day, two guests came to the restaurant, a man and a woman, about forty years old, well dressed, and the man was carrying a travel bag. It seems that they are a couple who are traveling.

The waiter brought the menu with a smile. The man took the menu and handed it directly to the woman, saying, "Order what you want to eat." The woman looked up and said to the waiter, "Just give us a bowl of wonton!"

The waiter Zheng, which have to eat wonton in the restaurant? Besides, there is nothing in the restaurant. She thought she didn't hear clearly and looked at the female customer anxiously. The woman repeated her words again, and the man next to her said, "What wonton do you eat?"

The woman shook her head and said, "I just want to eat wonton!" " The man froze. Seeing the waiter's surprised eyes, he said shyly, "OK. Please give us two bowls of wonton. "

"no!" The woman quickly added: "Just one bowl!" That man is Zheng again. Why did he eat a bowl? The woman frowned at the man and said, "Didn't you say you would listen to me all the way?"

Without saying a word, the man leaned back in his chair with his hands in his arms. The waiter next to him smiled contemptuously and thought, This woman is very stingy. She only wants a bowl of wonton when she goes to the restaurant. She curled her lips at the woman: "Sorry, we don't sell wonton here. If you want to eat, go out and eat! "

When the woman heard this, she was shocked, thought about it, and then said, "How can there be no wonton for sale? You don't want to do business because it's too small, right? "

At this moment, Zhang Xianfeng, the owner of the restaurant, happened to pass by. When he heard what the woman said, he waved to the waiter. The waiter went over and complained, "boss, look at these two men, carrying this wonton." Isn't this intentional? "

Zhang Xianfeng smiled and waved to her. He also felt very strange: judging from the dress of the couple, they should not be people who can't afford to eat, and may have other ideas. There is no reason to push the business to the door anyway.

He whispered to the waiter, "Go out and buy a bowl of wonton. How much did you pay for it? You have to pay twice as much for checking out later! " Then he pulled up a chair and sat down and began to observe the strange couple.

After a while, the waiter brought back a bowl of steaming wonton, put it in front of the woman and said, "Please enjoy your meal."

The woman's eyes lit up when she saw wonton. She pressed her face against the bowl and took a deep breath. Then, she gently stirred the wonton in the bowl with a spoon, as if reluctant to eat it, and did not send it to her mouth for a long time.

The man stared at the woman with wide eyes, then turned around and looked around. He felt that everyone was staring at them with strange eyes. He felt ashamed and said bitterly, "I really don't know what you are doing, coming all the way to eat this bowl of wonton?"

The woman looked up and said, "I like it!" "

The man picked up the menu on the table and said, "Eat if you want. I've been hungry all day, so I need to make up for it. " He beckoned the waiter to come over and ordered seven or eight expensive dishes in one breath.

The woman is in no hurry. When the man finishes ordering, she simply says to the waiter, "You'd better ask him if he has any money first, and be careful that he ate the king's meal."

Before the waiter could react, the man turned red with anger: "Bullshit! I want to eat the king's rice. Will I have no money? " As he spoke, he touched his arms and suddenly said, "Hey, where's my wallet?" He simply stood up, patted him and pinched him, only to find that the mobile phone was gone. The man stood blankly for a long time, and finally turned his eyes to the opposite woman.

The woman said unhurriedly, "Don't fool around. I threw my wallet and mobile phone into the river last night.

Hearing this, the man got angry: "You are crazy!" The woman didn't seem to hear, and continued to slowly stir the wonton in the bowl. The man suddenly remembered something, pulled open his carry-on travel bag and reached for it.

The woman said coldly, "keep the change, your watch and my ring." I threw all the valuable things we brought out this time into the river. I still have five dollars on me, just enough to buy this bowl of wonton! "

The man turned white, sat down and glared at the woman angrily: "You are crazy, you are crazy! We have no money on us. How can we come back so far? "

The woman looked calm and said tepidly, "What's your hurry? Anyway, we still have two legs, and we will walk home. "

The man snorted dully. The woman continued, "Twenty years ago, we had no money and went home." ? It was colder then than it is now! "

The man couldn't help staring at this sentence: "What did you say?" The woman asked, "You really don't remember?" The man shook his head blankly.

The woman sighed: "it seems that you have a few dollars on you in recent years, and you really forgot everything." Twenty years ago, when we first went out to do business, we didn't expect to be cheated out of everything, even the fare to go home. When you passed by, you asked me for a bowl of wonton. I know, at that time, you had fifty cents left ... "

Hearing this, the man was startled and looked around: "Here, here ..." The woman said: "Yes, that's it. I will never forget it. At that time, it was a small and broken wonton shop. "

The man bowed his head silently, and the woman turned to the stupefied waiter and said, "Girl, please bring me another empty bowl."

The waiter quickly brought an empty bowl. The woman picked up the wonton in front of her, put more than half of it in the empty bowl, and gently pushed it in front of the man: "Eat, let's walk home together after eating!" "

The man stared at the half bowl of wonton in front of him and said for a long time, "I'm not hungry." The woman murmured with tears in her eyes, "Twenty years ago, you said the same thing!" Say that finish, she stared at the bowl without moving the spoon, just sitting quietly.

The man said, "Why don't you eat?" The woman choked again: "Twenty years ago, you asked me the same question. I remember answering you at that time. You can eat together if you want, or you can not eat at all. Now, still that sentence! "

The man was silent and reached for the spoon. I don't know why, the hand holding the spoon shook badly, and after a few scoops, the wonton fell off. Finally, he finally sent a wonton to his mouth, swallowed it hard and swallowed it all. When he scooped up the second wonton, his tears suddenly burst down.

When the woman saw him eating, she smiled and picked up the spoon and began to eat. As soon as wonton was eaten, tears dropped into the bowl at the same time. The couple ate a bowl of wonton with tears in their eyes.

Putting down the spoon, the man looked up and asked the woman softly, "Are you full?"

The woman shook her head. That man is in a hurry. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. He bent down to take off a leather shoe, took out the insole and touched it. Unexpectedly, he took out five dollars. He stared blankly and incredulously at the money in his hand.

The woman smiled and said, "Twenty years ago, you lied to me that you only had fifty cents and could only buy a bowl of wonton. In fact, you still have fifty cents. You hid it in the soles of your shoes. I know you want to hide that fifty cents until I'm hungry. Later, you were forced to eat half of the wonton, so you took out the money and bought another bowl! " After a pause, she added, "It's a good thing you remember what you did. I don't have Bai Zang for these five dollars! "

The man handed the money to the waiter and said, "Give us another bowl of wonton." The waiter didn't pick up the money and ran away. Soon, he came back with a big bowl of wonton.

The man poured more than half into the woman's bowl: "Eat while it's hot!"

The woman did not move and said, "After dinner, we will walk home. Don't blame me. I just want to be hungry with you again before we break up. "

Without saying a word, the man bowed his head and gulped it down, eating the soup with water. He put down the bowl and urged the woman: "Eat quickly, and we will walk home after eating!" "

The woman said, "Don't worry, I will keep my word and sign it when I go back. I don't want money. I don't care if you marry ten or eight women. "

The man suddenly shouted loudly, "I'll burn the divorce agreement when I get back, won't I?" Say that finish, he cried, "I was wrong, not yet? My head is cramping. Isn't it okay? "

With a smile on her face, the woman calmly finished half a bowl of wonton, and then said to the waiter, "Girl, check out,

Zhang Xianfeng, the boss who has been watching, suddenly woke up and walked quickly, blocking the woman's hand, but took out two hundred-dollar bills from her body and handed them over: "Since you burned the divorce agreement when you went back, why did you walk home?"

Men and women looked at Zhang Xianfeng hesitantly. Zhang Xianfeng smiled and said, "We are old acquaintances. I sold the wonton you ate twenty years ago, and my wife made it herself! " Then he put the money into the man's hand and left without looking back. .....

Zhang Xianfeng returned to the office, took out the divorce papers already drawn up from the drawer, looked blankly for a long time, and muttered, "It seems that my head is cramping ..."

When you break up, think of the person who accompanied you through thick and thin, but your story is not short. Time goes by slowly, but those feelings are sealed up bit by bit. In fact, the person who loves you the most is not the one who makes you happy with sweet words, but the one who hides 5 yuan in the sole and leaves you the last thing at the last time, but says he is not hungry. ...
