Chapter Twenty-Six: Xiao Ji Goes to the Barbershop

After Xiao Ji stayed in this company for three months, Ding Mei went to work as a manager in the branch factory in Guangzhou.

In addition to knowing his colleagues in the factory, Xiao Ji also met a fellow countryman named Youyou. She and her husband Ah Cai opened a small shop to mend clothes, and by the way, they also got a haircut. His husband, Ah Cai, is a native of Chaozhou and used to work as a manager in a garment factory. Ah Cai's younger brother is called Ah Luo, and he went to learn barbering when he was a teenager, and his haircutting skills are very good. Ah Cai opened a barber shop for Ah Luo in another industrial zone under development, and asked his sister Ah Lian to come and help.

Xiao Ji and Yoyo hit it off at first sight, when Xiao Ji is not at work, he goes to Yoyo to play, and Yoyo also goes to Xiao Ji's dormitory to play with Xiao Ji whenever he is free. Every time I go, I buy a lot of things for Xiao Ji, such as biscuits, cans, and the like. Xiao Ji had just gone, and her salary was not high, so she had never bought these things, so she was naturally very grateful.

As the saying goes, "there is no free lunch in the world", Yoyo is good to Xiao Ji and has a purpose. It turned out that Ah Luo's barber shop was poor, and Ah Cai thought Xiao Ji was very good, so he asked Yoyo to come over and ask her to help. However, the girl who worked in the barber shop at that time was a young lady in the eyes of others, and it was an improper profession. Xiao Ji did not agree.

But Yoyo still goes to Xiaoji every few days with a big bag of delicious food, and often takes her to Arrow's barber shop to see. Xiao Ji carefully observed and found that this barber shop was very formal. I promised Youyou, and after the factory holiday in December, I would go to the Aluo store. Yoyo was overjoyed.

After the holiday in December, Koyoshi went to Arrow's barbershop. Yoyo treats her very well and treats her as a sister. Not only did she get the keys to the store, but she also let her go grocery shopping every day. There is a landline phone installed in the store, and occasionally someone will come to call, and Yoyo also asks her to collect phone bills.

Ah Luo is actually only two years older than Xiao Ji, he only manages hair, he doesn't want to do anything else, he is lazy, and he doesn't pay attention to hygiene, and he is very sloppy.

If Ah Lian, Luo's sister, is here, it is Ah Lian who cooks and does housework. If Ah Lian is not there, it is Xiao Ji who cooks and does housework.

Not only that, but Koyoshi's most important task is to learn to wash his hair.

Ah Cai personally came over to teach Xiao Ji to wash her hair as soon as she was free, and also taught her how to chat with customers, Xiao Ji was smart and learned it in less than half a month. Several bosses who came to wash her hair thought that Xiao Ji had been washing her hair for many years, and quietly gave her a tip.

Everything Xiao Ji did, Ah Luo saw in his eyes. Slowly, he started to like Koji a little bit. But Xiao Ji didn't like him and pretended not to know anything.

Among the bosses who came to wash their hair was Boss Liu, who was in his thirties and ran an ice rink behind their barber shop. This Boss Liu looks a bit like Chow Yun-fat, is educated, elegant, and decent, but his skin is a little dark.

He has to come to wash his hair almost every day, and every time he comes over, he asks Xiao Ji to wash him by name.

Xiao Ji was already able to speak well, and among the customers who came to wash their hair, it was rare for a few to be as literate as Boss Liu, so he could talk to Boss Liu very well.

In this way, Boss Liu fell in love with Xiao Ji. Except for Xiao Ji who doesn't know, everyone else knows.

Sometimes when business is good in Ah Luo's shop, if Ah Lian is not there, Ah Cai and his wife also come to help, and sometimes they sleep on Ah Lian's bed at night, and Xiao Ji sleeps on Ah Lian's lower bunk.

Every time Ah Cai and Yoyo sleep until midnight, the bed shakes violently, and Yoyo will gently **. At this time, Xiao Ji would wake up, but she was silent and pretended to sleep soundly.

One day, a woman in her thirties came. Permed ear-length short hair, white skin, upright facial features, and a sense of competence in speech and demeanor.

She asks Ji to wash her hair by name, and Ji feels strange because this woman has never been here.

Ah Luo, who was cutting his hair on the side, also looked at Xiao Ji from time to time, as if he had something to say.

But Xiao Ji only had to wash her, because "the customer is God".

The woman sat on the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, looked at Xiao Ji in the mirror, and said with a smile: "Little sister, you look so small, how old are you this year?"

“18。 Xiao Ji replied softly.

"Oh, the age of flowers, why don't you study at such a young age?" the woman asked.

"Alas, I just want to read it, but my family has no money. ”

Seeing Xiao Ji's sad face, the woman was inconvenient to ask any more. just praised Xiaoji for washing his hair well, being beautiful, and being able to talk...... When Xiao Ji heard this, he felt that he was about to fly.

After the woman left, Ah Luo told Xiao Ji that the woman was Boss Liu's wife.

Xiao Ji suddenly understood.

Later, Boss Liu came, and Xiao Ji was no longer as enthusiastic about him as before. Boss Liu seems to have discovered something.

One night at 6 o'clock, Ah Luo went out for something, and Ah Lian also went back to her hometown, and only Xiao Ji was alone in the store. She received a phone call, it was from Boss Liu. He said he had drunk too much in a bar and had a stomachache, but he didn't dare let her wife know. I want Xiao Ji to buy her some medicine and send it over.

Although Xiao Ji doesn't want to get too close to Boss Liu, she is kind-hearted. So I went to the pharmacy to buy stomach medicine and sent it to Boss Liu.

Boss Liu did drink too much, and he curled up in a chair alone, his face was pale, and there were some small beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. There were many plates and some leftovers on the table, and a few chairs lay on the floor.

Xiao Ji hurriedly found boiled water and waited for Boss Liu to take the medicine. And he lifted up all the chairs and straightened them up.

After a while, Boss Liu seemed to feel better, but he didn't have the strength to stand up. Xiao Ji helped him and sent him to the ice rink.

Afterwards, in order to thank her, Boss Liu gave her a jade bracelet. When Xiao Ji saw it, he almost fainted. This jade bracelet is exactly the same as the one I saw in Shanwei before.

Xiao Ji did not accept it.

Boss Liu took his wife behind his back and enrolled Xiao Ji in a computer class.

He was afraid that Xiao Ji would refuse, so he persuaded Xiao Ji bitterly: "At such a young age, if you don't learn some skills, you have no future just washing your hair." ”

Xiao Ji thought about it, but she decided to study first, and after paying her salary, she would return the tuition fee for learning computers to Boss Liu.

So Xiao Ji took time off to take two computer classes a week. Youyou was afraid that Xiao Ji would be able to leave after learning computers, so he gave her a salary increase and took her to buy a few sets of clothes.

Boss Liu rarely came to wash his hair later, but often when Xiao Ji was in computer class, he drove to wait for Xiao Ji and took Xiao Ji to dinner. Sometimes, I also take Koyoshi for a ride. He respects Xiao Ji very much and has never done anything to Xiao Ji.

Slowly, Xiao Ji had a subtle feeling for Boss Liu. However, as soon as she thought of Yang Fan, she suppressed this feeling fiercely.

One night, Xiao Ji felt dizzy and went to bed after work.

She dreamed that she had come to the original peach garden again, and the boy in white was still playing the piano under the peach tree. It's still the same familiar tune.

She stood behind the man in white, feeling a little trance.

The man in white turned his head, looked at Xiao Ji affectionately, and said with a smile: "Ziyan, you are finally here, thank you for remembering our agreement!"

What kind of agreement? Xiao Ji was a little confused.

"I told you that when you're 18, I'll come to you. The man in white got up and walked up to Xiao Ji and grabbed her hand.

Ziyan, you have grown up and become more and more beautiful. ”

The man in white said that he was going to hug her.

Xiao Ji immediately withdrew his hand, took a few steps back, and scolded sharply: "Please be respectful!"

The face of the man in white instantly became ugly, and he pointed at Xiao Ji and said, "Ziyan, you ...... Why do you do this to me!...... You're so fast, just ...... Only...... Forgot me?"

"I'm sorry, I can't remember who you are!" Xiao Ji said coldly.

"Hahahaha...... Yang Ziyan, you slut, you are so forgetful!" With a string of wild laughter, a masked man in a black robe landed in front of Xiao Ji.

Ah, it's the masked man again. Xiao Ji couldn't help but shudder.

"Lord...... Person...... You...... Why are you here?" the man in white quickly knelt on the ground with his head down.

"You beast, you always take advantage of my retreat to cultivate, and quietly run out to have a private meeting with this slut. Don't get back yet. After speaking, he opened his palm to the man in white.

The man in white immediately turned into a white shadow and flew into the palm of the man in black.

Xiao Ji was stunned. Before she could come to her senses. The man in black suddenly went to catch Xiao Ji: "Slut, you give me back the magic weapon!"

Xiao Ji flew up all of a sudden, turning into a huge blue phoenix, spewing a flame at the man in black.

"Ahh And then it was gone. Before leaving, he threw down a sentence: "Chen Ziyan, you wait, you will regret it, you will pay the price!"

Suddenly, there was a "crackling" firecracker sound, which woke up Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji patted his head, damn it!

She heard the continuous sound of firecrackers outside, and wondered: It's still early for the New Year, who is setting off firecrackers early in the morning?

"Zi Yan, Zi Yan, do you know? Boss Liu has an accident. Ah Lian walked in and said to Xiao Ji.
