Chapter 1291 A trivial matter!
Chapter 1291 A trivial matter!
Regardless, everyone felt they had done a good deed, except that Wangcai had been unfairly berated several times.
However, Miss Yuan bought it some grilled sausages. Wangcai never learns from its mistakes, and with the sausages, it started smiling again.
At 11:30 a.m., everyone returned. The class monitor had already prepared some of the ingredients. After returning, Lin Mo carried the ingredients to the kitchen.
As for Miss Yuan, she inflated her inflatable boat and then took her flock of ducklings and Wangcai to play on the river.
At this time, the weather outside was getting hot, which was perfect for playing in the water. Moreover, the river in his hometown was wide and shallow with a gentle current. The deepest part only reached Miss Yuan's belly, and most of the water was only about knee-deep. It would be difficult for her to drown, so everyone felt at ease.
Soon, Miss Yuan's excited laughter could be heard from outside, which eventually attracted the others to run over and join in playing in the water.
Lin Mo didn't go out to play, mainly because he had to cook in the kitchen.
The newly built villa has a spacious and bright kitchen with all the necessary facilities. Even if it's not Wednesday, Lin Mo can still showcase his culinary skills with chicken. It has to be said that the eggs played a crucial role.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, everyone returned for lunch on time. This time, they didn't eat in the yard. It was broad daylight, and the sun was shining brightly outside. Nobody was stupid!
The room was so nice, with air conditioning. Without the two elders, Comrade Lin and Ms. Zhou Min, the group of young people immediately relaxed, laughing and chatting as they ate.
Some chatted about where to go for fun, others about the World Cup, and some even discussed whether they should go up the mountain to steal wild apricots. It was quite a lively scene.
However, the suggestion to go outside was ultimately abandoned, simply because the sun was too strong outside, and it would become unbearably hot after only a short walk.
Playing in the river outside is fine, but when it comes to hiking, everyone thought that the temperature would be a bit unbearable!
As the discussion continued, it became 4:30 in the afternoon. Everyone was by the river outside the courtyard, watching Miss Yuan swim with a group of ducks. She herself sat on the inflatable valve, while the class monitor and He Xiaoyue were also having a great time.
Wang Chu and Chuan Mei, both wearing shorts, were fishing upstream. Liu Ruyan, however, disliked the sun and didn't want to come out, fearing she would get a tan.
As for Lin Mo, he set up a huge parasol on the shore, placed a table with various fruits on it, and various drinks were floating in the water, creating a complete camping scene.
Just then, Lao Wan sneaked over and said, "Hey bro, can you do me a favor?"
As he spoke, he pushed over two boxes of Hongtashan cigarettes, his expression a mix of self-righteousness and a hint of lewdness.
Hearing this, Lin Mo picked up the two packs of cigarettes, looked at them, and then said speechlessly, "What can be done with just two packs of Hongtashan cigarettes? Besides, I don't even smoke!"
"I know you're not abstract, but I figured if you finished the job for me, I could still take this cigarette back and smoke it!" Old Wan laughed.
Lin Mo:
"You're not even human! You don't deserve to have friends! Okay, what's up?!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Wan pointed to the Maybach parked at the entrance and asked, "Is that your car?"
Lin Mo: "It's my boyfriend, what's wrong?"
Old Wan: "Hey, does your partner's family or anyone you know own a Rolls-Royce or a Phantom? My cousin is getting married, and I'd like to have it as the lead car to make him look good!"
Hearing this, Lin Mo was so angry he laughed: "Two boxes of Hongtashan cigarettes, and I'll lend you a Rolls-Royce Phantom?"
Old Wan nodded: "That's right. After you're done using it, treat them to a meal and fill up their gas tank. Learn from this, you'll know how to handle things!"
Lin Mo:
"I'm going to cause trouble? You, you, you, you..."
Old Wan: "Just tell me if you're going to help or not. If you're not going to help, I have a little thing to take care of, so you can help me with that too!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo quickly said, "Then tell me about the small matter, let me see what kind of small matter it is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Wan took out two packs of cigarettes from the plastic bag behind him and handed them over.
Upon seeing this, Lin Mo immediately stood up from his chair: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, are you sure it's a small matter?"
Wait a minute, you're not after my bounty overseas, are you? Planning to take me abroad to exchange for money?
"No! Am I that kind of person?" Old Wan waved his hands repeatedly.
Lin Mo: "I can't borrow the Type 055 destroyer either, and you shouldn't even ask for an aircraft carrier. I can't mediate between the US and Iran either. I'm willing but powerless!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Wan waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, really no, what are you thinking? Do you think I don't know how capable you are?"
"Then what about these two Chinese roads?" Lin Mo pointed to them.
The guy who dared to borrow a Rolls-Royce Phantom from him even for two packs of Hongtashan cigarettes suddenly wants two packs of Huazi cigarettes? It feels like he's gone way beyond his means!
"Hey, it's nothing. Well, I saw online that you guys had a matchmaking event a couple of months ago, and a lot of people found partners through Li Shiya. You see, I've been single for so many years, my mom keeps urging me to find someone, and I want to find someone myself, but I just can't. There's no one suitable. Do you think you could talk to Li Shiya and introduce me to someone?"
Although I've met him a few times, we're not very familiar with each other, so I'm a little embarrassed! You see…
Hearing this, Lin Mo glanced at the two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes, then at the two packs of Hongtashan cigarettes, and then put the two packs of Hongtashan cigarettes away before saying, "Brother, why don't we talk about the Rolls-Royce Phantom instead?"
I'll ask my girlfriend in a bit. If her family doesn't have any, I'll ask Sister Yuan. They should be able to get some. What do you think?
Lao Wan: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
"This is outrageous! All I want is to find a partner, and you'd rather lend me a Rolls-Royce than introduce me to someone?"
"It's not that I don't want to introduce you to someone, but I suddenly realized that lending you a Rolls-Royce is a small matter, introducing you to someone is too difficult!" Lin Mo said speechlessly.
Upon hearing this, Lao Wan immediately lost his composure, grabbing his neck and shaking him back and forth: "I'll die with you!"
"Cough cough!! Calm down, calm down, I can do it!" Lin Mo quickly raised his hands in surrender and shouted.
Old Wan: "Can it really be done?"
Lin Mo nodded, then looked into the distance and called out, "Chuanzi, squad leader, Xiaoyue, come back quickly, there's a new mission!"
Hearing this, everyone was taken aback, but they still went back to their respective places. Ten minutes later, everyone returned to the living room, and Lin Mo explained Lao Wan's needs, and also placed two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes and two boxes of Hongtashan cigarettes on the coffee table.
"Tell me, what are your thoughts?" Lin Mo asked.
Chuanmei: "I think a Rolls-Royce Phantom isn't unacceptable, Sister Yuan, you should have one at home, right?"
Miss Yuan: "Of course, little brother, you should take the cigarettes back. I'll figure out a way to get the car, okay?"
Lao Wan:
Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this, while Liu Ruyan watched the spectacle from the sidelines.
"No, brother, I think I can still be saved," Lao Wan said.
To this, the Sichuan girl scoffed and said, "What's the point of having a partner? Look at me, I'm perfectly carefree now that I don't have one!"
"Ding"
Just then, Lao Wan's phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a voice message. He casually opened it, and the next second, a sweet voice came out.
[Brother, I'm eating, do you want to come over?]
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened instantly, and they sat up straight. Lin Mo sneered and said, "I'm not going. I'm texting you while I'm eating. Why don't you go pay for his meal? Who is this guy?!"
The Sichuan girl nodded: "Exactly, that voice doesn't sound like a good person at all. You should become a vengeful spirit!"
No sooner had I finished speaking than a second voice message came through on my phone.
【I'm with my three best friends, why don't you bring your friends along?】
Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl quickly interjected, "But then again, I don't think being a 'resentful person' is entirely unacceptable!"
Everyone:
"What are you looking at? You all have partners, but I don't! Brother, I'm a scumbag, I'll pay the bill, let's go together!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Wan nodded, then took out his phone, pressed the voice button, and said, "Something came up, I can't go!"
Sichuan girl: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
"Are you crazy? Why don't you go? I already said I paid the bill!"
Lao Wan: "I've met this woman before. She really treats me like a scapegoat. On the first day I met her, she asked me to buy her clothes and durians. She looked down on me during meals. I can't be a scapegoat!"
Besides, if I really had someone in mind, would I ask you to introduce me to someone? If you like her, how about I introduce you? After all, she has three close friends!
Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I don't think I'm suitable either. After all, birds of a feather flock together!"
"Hahaha!" Just then, Lin Mo couldn't help but burst into laughter. Everyone was a little confused. Lin Mo then laughed and said, "Old Wan, you've got the wrong person from the beginning. Those social events seem to be organized by Chuanzi, but in reality, they were all organized by He Xiaoyue and the class monitor. Chuanzi is just a figurehead."
He doesn't even have a girlfriend himself, and you expect him to introduce you to someone? Almost all the women he knows are here!
Upon hearing this, Lao Wan suddenly realized what was going on. He then snatched Hua Zi back and looked at Chuan Mei with disdain, as if to say, "You're such a big internet celebrity, yet you can't even call a girl!"
Upon seeing this, the Sichuan girl blushed crimson: "What nonsense! I have plenty of female friends!"
Upon hearing this, He Xiaoyue scoffed and said disdainfully, "Come on, it's fine to brag to others, but to brag to us? Where's your face?"
If you say you have a lot of female fans, we won't argue with you, but if you say you have a lot of female friends, you're really exaggerating!
"What if I call you and me?" the Sichuan girl said through gritted teeth.
Lin Mo waved his hand dismissively, "If you can get them here, I'll treat you to dinner right here!"
Sichuan girl: "Can I call a few more?"
Lin Mo: "Any of them are fine! But you'd better do it tomorrow, otherwise I won't acknowledge it!"
Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, you just wait!"
After saying that, she stormed upstairs, seemingly to go through her contacts.
No one paid any attention to this. Lao Wan, however, approached the class monitor and He Xiaoyue with two packs of cigarettes, asking the two women to help him find a girlfriend.
The two girls readily agreed to this small request. Although Li Shiya's account is no longer used as a dating template, the class monitor and He Xiaoyue still have a considerable number of girls in their possession.
Time flew by and it was already 5:30 in the evening. The sound of an engine came from outside the villa, and everyone knew at a glance that Lin Mo's parents had returned.
Just as Lin Mo was about to greet him, he saw Old Lin rush in, pour himself a glass of water, and drink it all in one gulp.
"What's wrong, Dad? What happened?" Lin Mo asked.
Upon hearing this, Old Lin, having finished his water, took a deep breath: "It's nothing serious. I'm just planning to stay here for the next couple of days. I'll take two more days off next week. My phone is off, so don't call me!"
"Uncle, is something wrong?" Liu Ruyan asked as she stepped forward.
Upon hearing this, Comrade Lin thought for a moment, and finally waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's just that a friend of mine was watching the World Cup before, and he wanted to bet 5000 yuan on the 0-0 draw between Spain and Cape Verde, but I stopped him."
At work today, he said that even if he killed me now, it would be considered self-defense!
Everyone:
