CHAPTER XXV

Talking about a beautiful and beautiful woman, tall and well-proportioned, plump and charming woman, will make many men salivate, but Yu Xiaoli is exactly with these three points, and it has become the focus of men's conversation, plus she is not married, and even the news that she has a boyfriend has not yet spread, which naturally aroused the favor of some little men who have not yet found a girlfriend, single men who have been married and separated from their families, and men who have a family and a wife, but still want to do romantic things. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is eager to be close to her; There are those who talk eloquently and want to associate with her; Even the womanizers who tried to mess with the flowers and grass thought of having a happy time with her. In this small town that is only the size of a palm, the population is not large, and a fart can move half a street, Xiaoli's fame can be said to be getting bigger and bigger, and the feat of Pi Lao Wang and a few other gangsters that day is even more well-known and well-known, so Xiaoli's strong and fearless momentum and style have won the admiration of men more and more, while Xiaoli's various setbacks and misfortunes and the Achilles' heel in her body are little known. Among these men, there is a man in his thirties, who is the best among men in appearance and figure, and has an enviable profession and fluent eloquence, this person's surname is Kong, a single name and a healthy character, and he works as a salesman in the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

One afternoon on the fifth day of the fifth month of May of that year, Mr. Kong Jian came to the beauty salon in a well-dressed manner, and before coming, he heard that several men who wanted to contact Xiaoli had returned in vain, so he walked into the door of the shop very cautiously. "Hello sir, may I ask if you are here to get a haircut or a mask?" Dongfang Li Yan smiled at Kong Jian and asked.

"Get a haircut first, then blow your hair, do a mask and massage or something, and then see if you're interested."

"Okay, please sit here for a haircut, and our Master Lu Ning will serve you."

"No, no, I'll wait for you boss Yu to finish doing it." Kong Jian pointed to Xiaoli, who was busy, and said to Dongfang Li Yan.

"Okay, please wait a moment on this bench."

"Thank you."

Xiaoli took the time to look at this man with extraordinary appearance and elegant manners, shook her head as if she understood and seemed to not understand, thinking that she would not just get a haircut and blow her hair, who would not do it, why should you wait for me, there must be another intention, but this is the workplace, what can you do if you have an attempt, I am willing to wait for you, anyway, the fishing is not in a hurry, what is my basket in a hurry, and the customer is God, is the food and clothing parents, since God and parents have this requirement and choice, of course Xiaoli is not good to say, So she continued to sit intently behind the last barber's chair and curl a woman's hair.

Kong Jian waited for more than an hour, and this time came, and he had changed several sets of customers, but Kong Jian still pretended to be very patient and still sat on the bench and waited, until Xiaoli was a little embarrassed, but there was no way, because this job in hand was the most troublesome business. When it was finally done, the female customer paid and thanked her and left, and Xiaoli invited Kong Jian to sit on the barber chair, and said very modestly: "I'm really sorry to keep you waiting." ”

"It's okay, I'm just here for you, it'll be fine later."

"Oh, if you come back next time, you can make a reservation in advance, I'll be waiting for you?"

"Okay, I see."

Next, Xiaoli seriously gave him a haircut and blow his hair, during which Kong Jian asked Xiaoli some irrelevant topics without a word, and Xiaoli replied to him without answering. Soon the business of haircutting and hair blowing was done, Kong Jian proposed to do a facial massage again, Xiaoli asked Dongfang Li Yan to help him do it, but he still insisted on letting Xiaoli serve him, Xiaoli was helpless, so he was a little unhappy to complete the homework for him, he got up to pay the bill, and then said goodbye to Xiaoli very gentlemanly and left the shop. After that, he came every three or five days, every time he came to either blow his hair or make a mask or something, but every time Xiaoli had to do it for him, every time he did it, he chatted with Xiaoli about some topics, and in these exchanges of words, Xiaoli knew that he worked in the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and was a divorced single person, had a house in the town, and lived with a son who was eight or nine years old. Gradually, Xiaoli has a good impression of him, after all, Xiaoli is still alone, looking forward to marrying and starting a family, having a man who really likes her, the tide of protection and love is still surging from time to time, the man in front of him from the appearance, Xiaoli is still very satisfied, so every time he comes, Xiaoli's attitude towards him has changed from indifference to enthusiasm, and it is precisely because of Xiaoli's enthusiasm that Kong Jian's behavior has risen from rules to more presumptuous. Intentionally and unintentionally, he sometimes touches Xiaoli's hands or non-sensitive parts of his body. In this way, just after dinner after he had come many times, he came again, first blew his head, and then asked Xiaoli to massage him, in the process of Xiaoli serving him, Kong Jian suddenly held Xiaoli's hand and said: "Xiaoli I like you, I visit again and again just to be close to you, I want to marry you, I want you to be the mistress of my family, to be the stepmother of my child, can you agree?" ”

Xiaoli seemed a little excited to hear him say this, although she still retracted her hand strongly, but she did not express any displeasure to him, every word he said Xiaoli also really heard in her heart, speaking from the heart, this Kong Jian is slightly inferior to Yao Qiming in terms of economy, it can be said that he is much stronger than him in all aspects, if he can stay with him for a lifetime, it will not be in vain to go on a journey in the world.

However, Xiaoli didn't know much about him, and the experience with Yao Qiming warned her that she couldn't easily believe in men's rhetoric, so she said to Kong Jian in tentative language: "You don't know me, the reason why I haven't found a partner until now is because I don't have children at will, I don't want children to drag me down, I'm a solipsist, I just want the man who marries me to think about me in everything, don't let the child take away half of my man's feelings, can you agree to this?" I'm very selfish in terms of feelings, and ordinary men can't satisfy my selfishness, and you should be no exception. Obviously, Xiaoli is using lies to justify herself.

"No, no, I can make an exception, I can definitely satisfy you, I don't ask you to have children, although I already have a son, but if you don't want to live with him, I will give him to his mother, in fact, this is also what his mother has always requested, when he divorced, he proposed to have children, I was considering that she was in the countryside, and the education and cultivation of children were not as good as in the town after all, so I didn't give it to her, if you decide to marry me, then I will send my son back to the countryside to his grandmother and mother, The two of us lived our two-person world in this small town. Kong Jian was already sitting on the massage table when he said this, and coldly grabbed Xiaoli's hand again, Xiaoli tried to withdraw it, but failed to twitch and followed his wishes.

"That's good, let me think about it again, this matter can't be rushed, good things don't start in the busy, and I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, can we be ordinary friends first, and then talk about marriage after both parties have a comprehensive understanding?"

"Okay, okay, yes, you should get along with ordinary friends."

The language is in agreement, and Xiaoli seems to agree rather than promise to be boyfriend and girlfriend with Kong Jian. Although this boyfriend and girlfriend are still far from knowing and falling in love, Xiaoli's heart is really dealing with that aspect. With the passage of time, Kong Jian's frequent visits, Xiaoli's passionate heart approached him little by little, so one afternoon two months later, Kong Jian held a handful of flowers to the beauty salon in his hand, as soon as he entered the door, it was like a marriage proposal, so he presented the flowers to Xiaoli with both hands, which made Xiaoli embarrassed in front of several young people, but still took the flowers with a slight blush, Kong Jian saw this scene, and said to Xiaoli while the iron was hot: "You are just idle at this time, Can you let me go up to your second floor for a tour? ”

Xiaoli thought for a moment and then replied to him: "Okay, for your handful of flowers, I will take you upstairs to watch the whole situation of my life." As she wished, Xiaoli made an exception for the first time except Feng Gang to lead a man to the small building where she lived, Kong Jian entered the door on the second floor, first pretending to be very graceful inside and out to admire, and then retreated to the edge of the sofa outside, Xiaoli beckoned him to sit down and chat, but at this moment, Kong Jian suddenly held Xiaoli's hand and said: "Xiaoli, I love you, I don't want to have you all the time, can I dedicate you to me through today's beautiful time?" As he spoke, he put his face close to Xiaoli and made a gesture of wanting to kiss her.

"No, absolutely not, I don't know you well enough, although the situation you said is very attractive to me, but those are all your side of the story, I haven't been confirmed, so please don't think about it, frankly, although I am not a yellow flower girl for a long time, because I have been with someone in the past, and I have given that person, because of this, I am not willing to allow another man too early, only when it is time to get married, I will give myself to him without reservation, please understand, and please respect, Don't do things that I hate, you know what is at stake in me, please think twice, or we won't even be friends anymore. At this time, Xiaoli is very sensible, this is the precautionary instinct that she has only after suffering many losses.

"Oh, I know, I know, don't worry, I won't ask you for anything more, please don't take it to heart about the rudeness just now, can we sit down and talk about something interesting?"

"Of course you can, you can sit down, please sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water to drink." In this way, Xiaoli sat on the sofa and chatted with him for a while. At this time, Wang Yaqin shouted to Xiaoli at the staircase, saying that there was a customer who came to perm her hair, and Xiaoli had to apologize to Kong Jian, and then they went downstairs one after another, and Kong Jian left the store with regret.

After this time, Kong Jian still came to the store from time to time as always, but he didn't come to blow his hair or do a massage or something every time, as long as he saw Xiaoli busy, he would sit for a while and leave. Xiaoli didn't take these things to heart, she still did what she had to do, and when she saw Kong Jian coming, she chatted with him if she was idle, but she didn't go up to the second floor with him anymore. The relationship between the two of them remained as if they were ordinary friends.

There is a saying: "Paper can't hold the fire", not to mention the light and heavy words, the relationship between Xiaoli and Kong Jian soon spread in this town where it could not hide things and Xiaoli was a more famous person. For a while, there were different opinions, some praised and envious, some sarcastic and ridiculed, but there was one person who was in a hurry, this person was not someone else, but Pi Lao Wang, who came to Xiaoli's shop to make trouble last time.

When the sun was setting that day, Pi Lao Wu hurriedly stepped into the store, and Xiaoli, who was eating, immediately dropped her rice bowl vigilantly, stood up and asked: "Pi Lao Wang, what are you doing again, are you going to make trouble again?" ”

"No, no, don't get me wrong, I have an urgent matter that I have to rush over to tell you."

"What makes you so anxious?"

"Can you take a step to speak, this matter is very important, I can only say it to you alone."

"Oh, it's so mysterious, okay, let's go out into the yard."

As truthful, Xiaoli led Pi Lao Wu to the courtyard, and as soon as he stood still, Pi Lao Wu suddenly asked, "Are you in contact with Kong Jian from ICBC?" ”

"It's true, but it's not a good object, he has this meaning, but I haven't thought about it yet, so I didn't promise him, and I can only be regarded as an ordinary friend at present."

"That's good, don't promise him, because he is not divorced at all, his wife is in his country home, while farming while taking care of his elderly father and his paralyzed mother, but this guy not only does not miss this, but dislikes people, since he graduated from college and entered the bank in the town, he rarely goes home, two years ago he took his son to the town's primary school and went home less often, not only that, but he is also a flower thief, specializing in coaxing beautiful women, once he has a relationship, he tells people that he has divorced, His purpose is to play tricks on people, because he has been living alone in the town, so many people do not know about his family's situation, even his colleagues know about this, and it is said that several beautiful women have fallen for him. How can you deal with such unfaithful and unfilial people, I was very anxious when I heard it, and I came to tell you. ”

"Really? So how do you know about him?

"Who am I, I am Pi Lao Wang, although I have no talent and no job, but I am sociable, have many friends, and naturally have ears and eyes, in this little big town, who and who are who, I dare not say that I know everything about it, but I also know one or two, people can not be good-looking, the sea water can not fight, although he Kong Jian is well hidden, but there are still a few people in this town who know about him, don't look at his appearance, but he is a belly of bad water, you must not fall into his trap."

"Then why are you telling me, I've robbed your family's business."

"Don't mention robbing business, I'm using the topic to play, deliberately running to mischief, my small shop and you here are three or four hundred meters away, who robs whom, since the last incident, I am grateful to you, we smashed your store, not only did you not ask us to compensate, but also helped me exonerate in front of the police, you must know that I have a criminal record, if you go in again, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat, so I don't want to see you deceived and bullied. Besides, you are my sister-in-law's sister-in-law, and protecting you is equivalent to protecting your family. ”

"In that case, you are still a very righteous person, and I thank you very, very much."

"Since that time, I have greeted all the gangsters and hooligans in this town, and no one is allowed to make trouble in your shop, if you come to make trouble, you can't get along with my skin, it's not that no one has ever come to make trouble."

"Yes, yes, no, no, I can't imagine that you protected us secretly, I thank you even more, why don't I invite you to a restaurant for dinner?"

"No need, as long as you remember what I have to say, I can rest assured, there is a chance to eat. Alright, I'll take my leave. ”

"Thank you, thank you, I will deal with that matter properly, don't worry, goodbye, I won't be far away."

"Goodbye, you must take care, the coming day will be long, I wish you a prosperous business and a happy life." After saying that, Pi Lao Wang left with a sigh of relief, Xiaoli stared at his background for a moment, and felt that there were still many good people in the world.

A few days later, Kong Jian happily arrived at the store again, but he didn't expect that he was condemned by Xiaoli, Kong Jian knew that the matter was exposed, but he still swore frankly to Xiaoli that he would return to his hometown and divorce his wife, and then come to propose to him, Xiaoli was even more angry and said to him: "Put away your set, who wants to marry you, you let your elderly and paralyzed bedridden parents not fulfill their filial piety, and let go of the wife who serves the second elder for you not to love and care, all outside to swagger and deceive, A shameless person like you who is disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous should have thundered and struck a long time ago, so if you don't get out of here, lest you dirty my shop and tarnish my reputation, Yan Xin and Lu Ning will take this dog-like guy out for me. ”

Kong Jian touched his nose and couldn't tell the difference, and without waiting for the two young men to make a move, he chucked out of the door, and never appeared again.

Xiaoli's relationship made the frustration that was not a setback come to naught. Although Kong Jian did not get a little cheap financially and physically, but psychologically, Xiaoli seemed to have been hit by a great blow again, her heart became colder, and people were depressed because of it, she locked the floodgates of her feelings firmly, and no longer paid attention to and accepted the winks and flowers that several men threw at her later, but ******** and pretended to be happy to devote herself to the work of ushering in the send-off, haircuts and perms. Time quietly went to the middle of August, a happy event in exchange for Xiaoli's real laughter, the happy event is that the younger brother Chen Xiaoqiang lived up to expectations and was admitted to the Normal College of a provincial capital city in southwest China, Xiaoli was extremely happy, and boasted that her brother had won glory for the family, won glory for himself, and also won face for her sister, in order to express her encouragement and expectations for her younger brother, Xiaoli specially on the night of September 8, three days before Xiaoqiang was about to leave home to study, At the time of the opening of the small shop, the hotel booked three tables of banquets, invited Xue Xiuxia and her cousin Pi Lao Wu, and also invited the staff and cooking master of the store, plus six regular customers who often patronized their small shop, the others were classmates from Xiaoqiang's school plus two teachers, and their own whole family, including Chen Agen and grandmother Huang Qiufang, who were invited by exception, more than 20 people sat at three tables in a large private room that could put down four tables in that hotel, and drank happily, joyfully, and livelyDuring the banquet, Xiaoli was extremely happy to raise a glass to wish all the people sitting in good health, and also wished Xiaoqiang's younger brother a happy study, return from school as soon as possible, find a good errand, and win glory for the family and himself.

Two days later, Xiaoqiang was going to report to school, his mother and Xiaoli were determined to send him to school, but Xiaoqiang refused, saying that a good boy was determined to be in all directions, and he could go well with this itinerary, Yu Xianglan and Xiaoli had no choice but to tell him to pay attention to safety all the way, and sent him to the long-distance bus station together, the car drove away, and Xiaoli and her mother's hearts followed the car far, far away.

Everything is the same, there is no interference, no mess and destruction, normal business, normal profits, normal work and life spent more than two months, the days jumped to November 20th, the morning just opened, Xiaoli has not received customers when another good news flew into her ear socket, the mobile phone made a "oh oh" sound, Xiaoli quickly picked up the mobile phone and said: "Hey, which one are you?" ”

"It's me, I'm your sister Fang Hui."

"Oh, it's Sister Fang Hui, is there anything wrong with this morning?"

"On the 10th of next month, I'm going to get married, and I'll notify you to come over for a wedding drink."

"Ah, getting married, is it marrying Zheng Jiahua?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's to marry him, how do you know?"

"I saw the signs at the cocktail party where my small shop opened, so I guessed that you and Zheng Jiahua got along, but I don't understand, doesn't Zheng Jiahua have a wife and children? He's so good, he won't be middle-aged or single, right? ”

"He has a wife and children, but he got divorced three months ago, so we can get together."

"So it's your third party who intervened and caused his family to break up."

"No, how could you think of me so badly? I'm not so dirty, I haven't been in contact with him since the last time you opened, I don't know if he has a family and children, until he took the initiative to come to me more than two months ago, I didn't know that he and his wife divorced, the reason is that he and his wife are very strong, they each open a company, so no one lets anyone, no one is willing to put down their careers to take care of the family, so far they can't get together, so they have to part ways, or his wife first proposed to break up, there is no business with me at all, I agreed to associate with him only after I got confirmation from my understanding. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, it's my little sister who blames you, please forgive me, please forgive me."

"It's a shame that you're still my sister, I don't know anything about my sister, and I must punish you if I find an opportunity. I'm in my early thirties, so I'm going to get married. ”

"I am willing to be punished, I am willing to be punished, so what about the wedding there?"

"At your mother's house, Fuxing Restaurant, your father and aunt also participated, I'm sorry, I notified them without asking for your opinion, you won't blame me."

"No, no, it's been a long time since I've been together with them, and this time I can take advantage of your big day to reunite with my father, aunt, and past colleagues and friends, I thank you for being too late, how can I blame you."

"That's good, that's good, you have to come early when the time comes."

"Okay, I must come to see you as a beautiful bride sooner, okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I wish you a happy marriage, happiness and happiness, and please say hello to Brother Zheng on my behalf."

Xiaoli, who put down the mobile phone, suddenly felt sour in her heart, she was not jealous because Fang Hui was going to marry Zheng Jiahua, but because she thought of her own pen and didn't know when she painted it, and she felt sour, so her mood was a little low, and then she didn't need to do business in person at this time, so she said hello to a few young people and went upstairs alone, half lying on the couch, closed the double limit, and entered into contemplation. Loneliness makes people miserable, pain makes people lose their minds, what do you do when you lose your mind? What did Xiaoli, who was tormented by loneliness and pain, think of at this moment? I don't know, no one can guess, but Yu Xiaoli is Yu Xiaoli after all, after going through many hardships and setbacks, she will not fall into the abyss of pain because of this incident, let alone lose her ambition. She bravely survived how many blows and pains, would she still care about this little unhappiness? So she only rested in the small building for more than ten minutes, and then integrated into the busy business of the small shop.

At one o'clock in the afternoon of December 10, Xiaoli and Yan Xin, Lu Ning and the two girls explained a lot, and then prepared to go to the long-distance bus station and take the car to the provincial capital to attend the wedding of Fang Hui and Zheng Jiahua. But at this time, Sister Xue Xiuxia suddenly came to the store, and said to Xiaoli in a very urgent tone: "Xiaoli, hurry, hurry up and help me tidy up my hair, and I will rush to the provincial capital to attend a wedding later." ”

"What a coincidence, I'm also about to rush to the provincial capital to attend the wedding, and if you come a few minutes late, I'll be on my way to the long-distance station. Well, I'll speed up and help you fix your hair, and then we'll go together, wouldn't we have a companion? ”

"That's great, but you don't have to take a long bus to go, my wife has a van for you to travel with us."

"With such a good thing, then I will borrow it all, not only saving my ticket money, but also having my sister and brother-in-law accompany me all the way, I am really lucky." Saying that, Xiaoli asked Sister Xue to sit down on the barber chair, and she began to trim Sister Xue's hair, in the process of operation, Xiaoli casually asked Sister Xue where she was in the provincial capital, which hotel was happy to drink, Sister Xue told Xiaoli very calmly that it was a restaurant called Fuxing in Hexi, the provincial capital, to eat happy wine, Xiaoli suddenly stopped when she heard it, went around to the front of Sister Xue and said, "What? Are you also going to Fuxing Restaurant to eat happy wine? I also went to that restaurant to have a wedding wine, could it be that we were attending the same couple's banquet? ”

"How is this possible, we are going to participate in my lover's classmate, who was originally from Yinlong Town, his name is Zheng Jiahua, this person should not be able to fight with you in eight strokes, why would you go?"

"Hahaha, the world is big, there are no surprises, such a coincidental thing actually let the two of us meet, we are really participating in the wedding of the same couple, I and Zheng Jiahua who said that eight poles can't hit a piece, my small building is his house, he is my landlord, I am his tenant, and the bride he is going to marry Fang Hui is my best sister, my haircut and perm, massage and other techniques are learned from her, in a sense, I should be regarded as their half introducer, if I didn't go back to my hometown to open a shop, and the small shop opened, Both of them attended the conversation and the opening ceremony of the rental house, otherwise they would not have known each other, let alone have today's wedding. ”

"Ah, there is such a thing, this is unbelievable, this house is rented to you by Zheng Jiahua, I know that he has a property in Yinlong Town, but I don't know which one it is, I didn't expect it to be this small second floor, isn't this too coincidental?"

"Coincidentally, the restaurant where they are going to hold the wedding was originally founded and operated by my biological father Hong Fusheng, and I also worked as a receptionist and cashier in the restaurant for several years, and the current boss Feng Gang and the proprietress Li Hong are my colleagues when they worked there, and they are ......." At this time, Xiaoli stopped, and then put it on Sister Xue's ear and bit it lightly.

After listening to this, Sister Xue stared at Xiao Li with her eyes wide open, shook her head and said: "This is really a coincidence, it is so coincidental that it can't be more coincidental, it's incredible, then your biological father also attends tonight's wedding?" ”

"Participate, Fang Hui has already informed my father and my aunt, that is, my father's wife, my aunt is the aunt of Feng Gang, the current owner of this restaurant, to be precise, Feng Gang is the nephew of my aunt's deceased ex-husband, when I worked in that restaurant, my aunt Wu Cuicui was quite good to me."

"Oh, that's what happened, now your family is reunited."

"Yes, so I'm very happy, I didn't expect that Fang Hui would get together with Zheng Jiahua, she is a big beauty, and she is arrogant, ordinary men don't enter her eyes at all, so they haven't married after the age of thirty, I didn't expect this flower to be picked by Zheng Jiahua."

"I really can't imagine that Zheng Jiahua's original wife and my lover were classmates in the past, that woman is very capable, talented, courageous, and runs a company by herself, maybe because they are both very strong, no one is convinced by anyone, and no one is willing to leave their careers to take care of the family, so they can only go their own way and have to break up."

"That's true, that's what Fang Hui told me."

"It's not surprising that the two strong meet to take the lighter, but neither of them is willing to despise themselves, and neither of them is willing to be wronged, so the meaning of continuing to live together is lost, so they have to go half of the road to the sky."

"That's right, people are so weird, both are weak, they can't stay together, both are strong and can't be maintained, you have to be strong and weak to learn from each other's strengths, I really don't understand." Xiaoli sighed as she spoke, who is this sigh for, leave a guess for herself or for others.

More than half an hour later, Xiaoli trimmed and refreshed Sister Xue, the two of them immediately dressed up, and the van also stopped at the door of the shop, Xiaoli and Sister Xue got into the car, including the driver, there were already five people in the car, plus Xiaoli and Sister Xue, a total of seven people, except for Xiaoli, they were three couples, the three men were friends of Zheng Jiahua when he was a student, and the three men and four women sat in the car and ran in the direction of the provincial capital.

Along the way, Xiaoli was excited, and she was excited for three reasons, one of which was that her favorite and confidant friend Fang Hui was about to get rid of the single and marry a wife; second, she is really happy that she will be together with her biological father and the aunt she loves; The third is to be happy that she can return to the Fuxing Restaurant like her mother's home and see many colleagues and comrades-in-arms who have been absent for a long time. With these three reasons, Xiaoli's heart seems to run faster and faster than the car.

CHAPTER XXVI

"The mountains do not turn, the water does not turn, the water does not turn, and the people do not turn ......." Yu Xiaoli's whereabouts are just like what is sung in this song, and she turned around and returned to Fuxing Restaurant. When the driver's foot just stepped on the brake door, Xiaoli jumped out of the car door like a flea, and ran to the welcome hall in a few big strides.

"Okay, Brother Zheng, you took the initiative to support me enthusiastically and help me, it turned out that you had ulterior motives to please me, and the purpose was to snatch my sister." Xiaoli said with a funny smile.

"That is, that is, if I have no selfish intentions, why should I exert so much strength for you." Zheng Jiahua also replied with fun.

"You two bad guys, colluding to use me as a bargaining chip." Fang Hui said casually.

"Hey, I'm just using you as a bargaining chip, what can you do, now that you're on the thief ship, I'm afraid there's nowhere to go down, hahaha." Xiaoli said with a smile and joy.

"This little dead girl, make fun of your sister, one day she will take revenge on you." Fang Hui also said with a smile.

They were talking and laughing, and suddenly ran out of the back hall by Hu Qin, Xiaohong led a group of waiters, as soon as they saw Xiaoli, they hugged her and surrounded her, Xiaoli was also ecstatic and hugged them one by one, exchanged greetings, and flirted with them without hesitation, for a time the laughter of these women filled the entire welcome hall, which provoked the bride Fang Hui to shout at Xiaoli with jealousy: "Yu Xiaoli, today you are a bride or I am a bride, see that they all welcome you as if they welcome the head of state, But they left me out in the cold. ”

"You deserve it, who let you come to my mother's house to hold the wedding, the people here are my former colleagues and comrades-in-arms, I haven't been here for so long, and they don't go crazy to greet me today."

"I've lost to you, you remember it for me, and when I get the opportunity, I will settle it with your old and new accounts."

Xiao Li stuck out her tongue at Fang Hui and made a strange appearance, and then deliberately walked towards the hall with the waiters, this action was ridiculous, and Fang Hui was even more made to cry and laugh.

Surrounded by a group of waitresses, Xiaoli, who was talking and laughing, saw Hong Fusheng and his wife sitting at a table at the front of the hall, hurriedly separated the crowd, rushed to their side with a jump, and shouted happily: "Dad, Auntie, you are here, I miss you to death." As he spoke, he opened his arms and hugged Hong Fusheng and Wu Cuicui.

"Beauty, are you okay? How's the business? Are you in any trouble? Hong Fusheng asked with concern after waiting for Xiaoli to let go of her hand.

"It's okay, Dad, the whole business is too busy, is it troublesome? I have also encountered it a few times, but they have all been resolved, thanks to Sister Xue Xiuxia. Xiaoli replied.

"Oh, so you've met a noble man again, is this man from your town? I had the opportunity to introduce you to you, so we could thank her in person. Wu Cuicui also said with concern.

"Yes, working in the town government of Yinlong Town, she was very good to me, taught me a lot of truths, and saved me at the most critical moment. There is no need to find a chance to thank her, because she is here today, and her lover and Cheng Jiahua are very good classmates, so they also came to the wedding, and I came with them in a van, and you see, it was the lady. Xiaoli said that at this time, she found that Sister Xue and her party had also entered the hall, so she raised her hand and said, and then she strode in front of Sister Xue, pulled her to Hong Fusheng and his wife, and introduced: "Dad, auntie, this is Sister Xue Xiuxia who helped and saved me." "Sister Xue, this is my biological father Hong Fusheng and my aunt Wu Cuicui."

"Oh, this Sister Xue, thank you, thanks to you, a danger was resolved, you are the benefactor of the beauties, that is, our benefactor, I would like to express my respect and gratitude to you." Hong Fusheng said affectionately.

"Yes, I should really thank you, we are too far away from the beauty to take care of her, fortunately you are in that town, so that the beauty can stand firm, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, I hope you will continue to help and take care of her in the future, I salute you here." Wu Cuicui also said very sincerely.

"Uncle, aunt, don't be so polite, you are all native to your hometown, Xiaoli is a person who relies on her skills to eat, I should help and take care of her, and besides, I have recognized her as my godsister, so her safety is also my safety, please rest assured." Sister Xue replied with sincerity.

After they stood at the table and talked deeply and earnestly for a while, the wedding officially began, and Xiaoli and Sister Xue sat at a table. But Xiaoli arrived at Fuxing Restaurant as if she was at her own home, that may be honest, after the opening ceremony of the wedding, she stood up, holding a wine glass, clinking glasses with acquaintances everywhere, laughing, asking for warmth, her figure flashed at every dining table, and her laughter echoed in every corner. When she wanted to find someone crazy again, she happened to meet Feng Gang who came out of the kitchen, Feng Gang was surprised and happy when he saw her, and he wanted to immediately hold her in his arms and kiss her, but on that occasion, there were people everywhere, how could Feng Gang get his wish; Xiaoli looked at him happily and happily, and wanted to talk to him like waves. The two stared at each other so stupidly, and after looking at each other for a while, Feng Gang was about to open his mouth to ask, but he didn't think that Da Hong suddenly appeared in front of her, and as soon as she saw Xiaoli, she said with a smile on her face: "Oh, Sister Xiaoli, you're here, how are you doing this time?" Business is pretty good, I heard that you are coming tonight, Feng Gang and I are eager to see you, and now I am so happy to see you. Da Hong's enthusiasm was obviously a bit contrived, but it was this contrivedness that interrupted Xiaoli and Feng Gang's ecstasy of estrus, so Xiaoli and Feng Gang didn't even have a chance to say a whole sentence during the entire wedding period.

"Thank you, thank you Dahong, I'm fine, business is very busy, you're also very good, you've made a lot of money, it seems that you, the boss, are quite comfortable."

"There, there, worry about life, it's not easy to take care of such a big restaurant, I have to ask about everything, I'm tired and have a sore back, so I can have you at ease."

The two women didn't finish talking, and there was no part of Feng Gang interjecting at all, which made Feng Gang stand aside very unnaturally, neither walking, not leaving, with an embarrassed look. At this time, a commotion stopped Xiaoli and Da Hong from talking, and Xiaoli had to return to her seat.

The wedding was carried out in a lively, happy, and joyful atmosphere for more than two hours, during this period of time, Xiaoli did not get together with Feng Gang again, until the end of the party, Xiaoli and Sister Xue and his wife greeted her and said that she would not go back to Yinlong Town tonight, and stayed at her father's and aunt's house for one night.

"Beauty, do you have an eyebrow for your personal problems? Fang Hui is married, when are you going to float? Xiaoli, who returned to her father's house, just sat down and closed her eyes to recuperate, when Hong Fusheng suddenly asked.

"I haven't had a problem yet, and besides, I can compare with Sister Fang Hui, she is a complete woman, but she can't be high or low, so it has dragged on to today." Xiaoli replied.

"You don't always have to carry a burden to do things, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, the boat is naturally straight to the bridge, the road is walked out by people, it is not easy to find a good one, and it is not easy to find a person who can live." Wu Cuicui also said earnestly.

"Seemingly simple things are not easy for me, my car has already arrived in front of the mountain, but where is the road? The boat also went to the bridge, but it just couldn't go straight, Wang Weibing, Feng Gang, and that Yao Qiming, that one I didn't pay my true feelings, but what was the result? Hey, I'm so disheartened. Xiaoli sighed.

"You don't need to be so pessimistic, you don't have a master here, you have a place to stay here, as long as you put down your ideological baggage, travel lightly, and find someone who is really good to you, there is still hope." Hong Fusheng persuaded his daughter.

"Yes, you haven't reached fate, maybe you can't stop it, with your own conditions and career success, are you still worried that there is no good man chasing you?" Wu Cuicui also puffed up.

"I hope, but I still won't marry myself off easily. The setbacks in the previous three relationships hit me too hard, so I will be cautious, and I will not think about it again if I don't meet someone who is really good to me and who is as I wish. Daddy and Auntie, I hope you understand me. Okay, let's not talk about that, but about something glad about it, okay? Why didn't I see my brother? Xiaoli turned the conversation to something else.

"Oh, today is Friday, the day after tomorrow is off, Jiaxing asked his grandparents to take him home for Sunday." Wu Cuicui replied.

Xiaoli talked affectionately with her father and aunt about many happy things, and it was not until late that they went back to their respective rooms to rest and go to bed. The next day, when the sky was bright, Xiaoli was very reluctant to say goodbye to Hong Fusheng and his wife, and rushed back in the direction of Yinlong Town.

Sweet work produces sweet love, and sweet love turns into infinite power. Yan Xin and Wang Yaqin sublimated this deep friendship into a flame of love for each other, and the other two also found their own love.

One night in mid-January 2005, when there were no customers in the store, Xiaoli and four employees sat in the store chatting after dinner. At this time, her mother Yu Xianglan walked into the store to see them, and as soon as Xiaoli saw her mother, she asked very kindly: "Mom, it's getting late, do you still have anything to do with coming over?" ”

"It's okay, after I ate, I went to the street when I was bored, but I walked and walked here."

"Oh, then you come and sit down, and I'll pour you a glass of water."

"No, no need to pour water, I drank it at home just now, and when people get old, they feel less, and if they drink more water, they will not be able to sleep well when they get up at night."

"Hehe, is there such a strange thing? Okay, you can just sit down and talk. ”

Yu Xianglan sat down to join in their small talk, and at this time, a male customer walked into the store to get a haircut, and Lu Ning greeted him and operated it for him. Yu Xianglan saw that there was a living person, so she stood up and said to Xiaoli: "I'm leaving, you have something to do, I won't make trouble here." ”

"Okay, I'll send you." After Xiaoli finished speaking, she also got up and took her mother out of the store together. Along the way, the mother and daughter walked with a smile and walked for a while, and after a while, they arrived at the door of the Chen family's shop, and Xiaoli said goodbye to her mother and returned to the store. When Xiaoli stepped into the store and saw that Lu Ning was still giving the customer a haircut, Dongfang Li Yan was sitting on the bench looking at her mobile phone, but Yan Xin and Wang Yaqin were nowhere to be seen, Xiaoli asked Dongfang Li Yan with some confusion Where did the two of them go, Dongfang Li Yan was very weird and pouted at the back room. Xiaoli pushed open the door of the inner room, and suddenly saw Yan Xin and Wang Yaqin hugging and kissing together, Xiaoli was in a dilemma for a while, I don't know if it is, I had to cough subconsciously, the two young boys and girls who were not aware of it quickly let go of each other after hearing it, and turned around and lowered their heads to face Xiaoli very embarrassed, Xiaoli calmed down, and then made a gesture for them to come outside, Xiaoli withdrew and sat on the bench and asked Yan Xin and Wang Yaqin, who had stood beside her: " When did the two of you get along? I don't know at all. ”

"I, I, we just got along not long ago, Sister Xiaoli is sorry, we shouldn't be like that in the store." Wang Yaqin said in a panic.

"What's the panic, it's a good thing, I'm happy for you and congratulate you." Xiaoli said with sincerity.

"The two of them have been eyebrowning for a long time, but you just don't care." Dongfang Li Yan interjected.

"Happy event, happy event, you have established love in living and working together, it is worth rejoicing, this feeling is sincere, it is unbreakable, I am proud of you. What about you, are you and Lu Ning also in love? Xiaoli happily asked Dongfang Li Yandao.

"She also has a sweetheart, but it's not Lu Ning, but ......," Wang Yaqin took the opportunity to say.

"And who is it, how do you say that half is left and half is left, this is a good thing, why hide it, say it so that I can also share the joy of parting?" Xiaoli said with a smile at Dongfang Li Yan.

"Sister Xiaoli, guess who it is, you are very familiar with this person, you will be very happy to guess it." Wang Yaqin pretended to be mysterious.

"Let me guess the riddle, it's still someone I know well, and I'm glad that it will be." Xiaoli looked at Dongfang Li Yan, who was already swollen and red, thought about it and said, "It can't be Pi Lao Wang." ”

"Sister, you thought of it, how could I fall in love with that sloppy little gangster, besides, he is in his early thirties, and he is still so out of tune, why should I wronged myself and be good with him." The proprietor Li Yan said anxiously.

"Who could that be?" Xiaoli thought about it, shook her head, shook her head and thought about it again, looking like the second monk was puzzled, and then spread her hands and said: "I can't guess, I can't guess, you don't sell it anymore, say it and make me happy for her." ”

At this time, Lu Ning, who had already finished his work, came over and said to Xiaoli with a smile: "Sister Xiaoli, if Dongfang Li Yan and her sweetheart get married, you will be her veritable sister-in-law." ”

"Ah, it turned out to be Xiaoqiang, I would never have guessed when you and him got along, how could I not notice it at all." Xiaoli shouted happily when she heard it.

"We were eye-catching at the farewell party you had for him to go to college, and then he messaged me and I replied to his message, so it was fine." Dongfang Li Yan honestly said the reason.

"Okay, good, so happy, too surprised, too surprised me, this is really great news, Xiaoqiang is going to have a holiday in a few days, and when he comes back, you can further communicate and deepen your understanding, I sincerely bless you as a sister, Li Yan, I hope you will help Xiaoqiang a lot, let him get rid of his shortcomings, and be a person who can be used in society." Xiaoli went to her surname for the first time and called Li Yan directly.

"He'll come back around the twentieth, and I want to pick him up at the station then?" Dongfang Li Yan happily asked.

"Okay, this Xiaoqiang is really ungrateful, when he has a sweetheart, he forgets his parents and my sister, and he doesn't tell us when he comes back, he only tells you." Xiaoli pretended to be angry and said.

"Sister, don't blame him, I didn't let him say it, the purpose is to surprise you." Dongfang Li Yan defended Xiaoqiang.

"Ouch, I haven't protected it yet, and now it seems that only Lu Ning is still single." Xiaoli remembered Lu Ning, so she said.

"Sister Xiaoli, I also have a sweetheart, who was my classmate in high school, and now I am studying in college in other places." Lu Ning reported.

"Okay, I'm so happy that you all belong to each other." Xiaoli said this, but her heart was still a little sour. But she is the eldest sister, no matter how much sour it will not be shown in front of them, so her face is still full of smiles that don't matter, but it is ridiculous that she thought of Yan Xin and Wang Yaqin's behavior, and reminded them cautiously: "I am very happy that you love each other, but don't affect your work, let alone do too intimate things in the store, this is a workplace after all, you hug and kiss is always unsightly, let me meet it doesn't matter, if the customer bumps into what kind of system, Those who know will think that you are talking about the object, and those who don't understand still think that I am not good here, and even suspect that I am not good here, and even suspect that it provides erotic services, which will damage the image of the small shop, and our small shop has always been shown as a clean and civilized image, but we must not ruin our reputation because of this little thing, it is not worth it. ”

"I know, I know, I'm sorry, we won't be like that again, please rest assured, Sister Xiaoli." Wang Yaqin said ashamedly.

"It's all my fault, it's me who hugged her first, I must pay attention in the future, I don't dare to do that again, please forgive my sister." Yan Xin also said guiltily.

"Okay, okay, don't blame yourself, young people talk about objects, it is inevitable that they can't control themselves, just don't do that in the future, all in all, it's still very exciting." When Xiaoli said this, this little thing was said in an extremely calm language.

On the road of life, you can never run the disappearance of time, soon the Spring Festival is approaching, the business in the small shop quickly becomes extremely hot, Xiaoli and the four employees are busy from morning to night, eating can only be solved in turns, even Chen Xiaoqiang, who came back for the winter vacation and Spring Festival, also stayed in the store and did not know how to help wash hair, sweep the floor, welcome customers, and send customers, as if he became a member of the small shop, and was busy until the evening of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the business barely stopped, The four young people hurriedly returned to their respective homes for the New Year, and Xiaoli also returned to the Chen family to celebrate the Chinese New Year's Eve under the repeated requests and urgings of her mother and younger brother.

A few days of annual leave passed very unhappily, the small shop reopened to welcome customers in the condition of firecrackers and laughter gradually subsided, the business after the year was relatively light, Xiaoli and a few of them easily took turns to work, take turns to rest, eat together, and laugh together, Chen Xiaoqiang, who has not yet returned to school and resumed classes, in addition to eating three meals a day, basically stayed in the store, inseparable with Dongfang Li Yan, when she worked, Xiaoqiang waited patiently on the bench outside; She whispered with her when she was resting, and laughed joyfully from time to time, Xiaoli looked at them in her eyes and was happy in her heart. In the blink of an eye, it's March again, Xiaoqiang has also returned to school, and the business in the store has slowly started to improve again, and Xiaoli and the others have fewer opportunities to chat and laugh together. Unconsciously, time flies, the calendar turned to more than ten o'clock in the morning of March 28, Xiaoli is standing behind the second barber chair with a high degree of concentration for a female customer with long hair curled, a man looked east and west into the store, Xiaoli noticed him, when she heard Wang Yaqin meet the man and ask if he had a haircut and a massage, the man replied that he did not have a haircut or a massage, but came to find someone. As he spoke, the man was already standing beside him, Xiao Li was very familiar when she heard this voice, and then looked at the mirror in front of her, and couldn't help but be surprised, isn't this person Wang Weibing? A first love you haven't seen for years. Xiaoli hurriedly turned around and asked in a very unfriendly tone: "Xiao Wang, how did you find here, what are you doing here?" When she said this, Xiaoli was still holding a comb in one hand and a hair dryer in the other.

"Xiaoli, is it really you? You've made it easy for me to find you, and thank goodness I've finally found you. Wang Weibing said excitedly when he saw Xiaoli.

Xiaoli, who seemed to be a little impatient, called Lu Ning, who had just finished being another customer, handed him the comb and hair dryer, and asked him to continue to serve the female customers around him, and then signaled Wang Weibing to go up to the back yard to talk, when the Wang Weibing who followed behind stood in the small courtyard, Xiaoli said to him angrily: "What else do you need to come to me, we have become passers-by, it doesn't matter at all, what do you want to do here?" ”

"I'm looking for you so hard, I heard about Fuxing Restaurant from the construction site, and then I heard about the beautiful beauty salon from that restaurant, and then I heard about it from that store."

"Don't talk so much, you answer me directly, what is the purpose of looking for me so hard." Xiaoli is obviously a little hot.

"I'm divorced and want to get back together with you, and I heard that you're not married yet, so I ran all the way with a heart of hope."

"It's so light, is it possible to get back together? You thought of me when you got divorced, why didn't you think of me when you and your wife and children were enjoying the joy of family? Where were you when I was most lonely and helpless? My third uncle died, and you were there when my third aunt poured all her resentment on me? What do you think of me, as a substitute to fill your family's shortcomings and spiritual emptiness? It's just a dream, I don't want to see you anymore, please disappear for me immediately. ”

"Don't I know that? As soon as I accompanied my mother and sister and they returned home, they forced me to get married and found a local woman I had never met at all, let alone loved. I learned that your third uncle had died of a work-related injury when I met my uncle and aunt at the construction site not long ago. ”

"If you don't love you, you've lived with her for so long and had children, stop making a fool of yourself. You can send your mother home and come out to me, I don't believe she will really die, you are happy days have passed, the freshness has passed, you came to make fun of me, let's go, I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore, flash people immediately, go back to there from there. ”

"Don't, don't drive me away, my love for you has never changed, please remember that we love each other sincerely, and then think about it?"

"No, I don't have any feelings for you anymore, you leave me, the farther you go, the better, Yan Xin, Lu Ning, you two come here, invite this person out for me, I don't want to see him again." Xiaoli shouted menacingly.

Yan Xin and Lu Ning, who were busy, heard Xiaoli shouting like this, and immediately left the customer and walked into the small courtyard, Wang Weibing wanted to say something, but Yan Xin and Lu Ning, two young men who were higher than Wang Weibing, forcibly pulled him out, and never came back, Xiaoli turned her back to them, and tears rolled out of her eyes.

If he ruthlessly drove the king's guards out of the house, why did he cry again? A discerning person should guess at a glance that Xiaoli is angry. At this moment, Xiaoli is really in love and hate, although that love is an emotion in the past, but that emotion is her first love, and it is an unforgettable confession of true love, so Xiaoli's love for Wang Weibing still can't be completely eliminated; She hated this Confucian man for not daring to fight against the world and the family, and succumbed to the pressure of his mother and married her, at this time, the family broke up and ran to disturb Ye's heart, where to put her feelings, Xiaoli's emotions could not be calm. But what makes people feel regrettable is that Wang Weibing is Wang Weibing, too stupid and too honest, Xiaoli is completely angry like that, he can avoid his edge and disappear temporarily. Come back in the afternoon or evening, Xiaoli is likely to forgive him with a change of heart, and relive the old dream with him, satisfied with the wish he has worked so hard to find. If that were the case, Wang Weibing would have stepped into the shop many times in the afternoon or evening, or even the next and third days, asking for Xiaoli's forgiveness, and then confiding in him his true feelings, giving her a hug or even a kiss, Xiaoli's heart would have melted, and she would turn her resentment into love and throw herself into his arms. If that's the case, Xiaoli's story should end here, and the feelings that will happen again in the future will not exist, and there will be no Lu Xinzhou who appeared later. It's so hard to believe, but you can't help but believe it. Wang Weibing did not come back, and Xiaoli's personal emotions fluctuated again, flashing in an instant, and disappearing in an instant. Although this fluctuation is a small thing in her emotional experience, it is a very big feeling for her.

After Wang Weibing left, Xiaoli's mood was extremely low, and her mood was so bad that she no longer had the energy to continue working, so she went up to the second floor alone silently after greeting the four employees, sitting on the sofa and crying, she hated at first, hated Wang Weibing only came to her now, so that she suffered a lot of pain since she broke up with him; Later, she regretted that she should not have done that to him, and ordered the staff to kick him out of the door; Then she hoped that Wang Weibing would reappear, then she would definitely take back her life and play a vigorous love scene with him again. So she stayed on the small building and waited, but waited, waited, waited until the shop closed, and didn't wait for a figure that could comfort her heart, Xiaoli was completely disappointed. Beauty tears, at this moment, it is too worthless, and it is a pity.

In the next few days, Xiaoli was in a bad mood to spend barely enough, although it was time to do things, to eat, but the smile did not touch her face, the four young people also saw a rough idea from her expression, but none of them dared to ask her, fortunately, she slowly walked out of the displeasure, and the atmosphere in the store returned to the past.

Spring has come and summer, summer has gone and autumn has arrived, and more than half a year has passed in the process of changing the seasons without any abnormal circumstances. In the past six months, Xiaoli has basically not left the shop, and she has not even entered the courtyard of the Chen family, her mother Yu Xianglan often comes to see her, when she sees Xiaoli busy, she only looks at the door and leaves, and sees that Xiaoli is free, she walks in and sits.

Unexpectedly, on the morning of September 17, when the shop had just opened, Yu Xianglan suddenly hurriedly ran over and told Xiaoli that her grandmother Huang Qiufang was no good, Xiaoli hurriedly rushed to the Chen family's courtyard with her mother desperately, and went straight to the house where her grandmother lived, and saw her grandmother who was dying, Huang Qiufangyuan opened her eyes and looked at Xiaoli, who was still sweating on her face, and seemed to smile at herThis expression only lasted for a few seconds, and grandma Huang Qiufang closed her eyes and went to find Xiaoli's grandfather Chen Bingmao.

In the next two days, Xiaoli stayed at Chen's house and took care of her grandmother's funeral with her mother, Chen Agen, and Chen Xiaoqiang, who came from thousands of miles away to mourn the funeral the next day, and on the third day of cremation and burial, Xiaoli accompanied her mother, Xiaoqiang accompanied Chen Agen, and handled Huang Qiufang's funeral step by step. Xiaoli and Xiaoqiang's hearts can be described as great comfort.
