Chapter 139: Youth, Shejiaxun!
Xiao Qi smiled and took the water that Xiao Xun was holding, took a sip and asked casually, "How much is the rent here?" ”
Xiao Xun was also stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xiao Qi to ask this, and hurriedly said: "100 a month, not including water and electricity." ”
Xiao Qi snorted, glanced at the packed instant noodles and asked, "You usually eat this?" ”
Xiao Xun nodded, and added: "Occasionally, a ham sausage will be added." ”
Xiao Qi was silent, no wonder he had a convenient face, a 16-year-old child is the age when his body is elevated, where can he keep up with the nutrition of eating instant noodles all day long, even if he adds an extra ham sausage, it will not make much difference.
Seeing a little fancy suit hanging on the wall, Xiao Qi asked, "This is yours?" ”
Xiao Xun followed the direction of Xiao Qi's finger and responded, "It's my work clothes, from the bar." ”
Xiao Qi's fingers pointed to a set of gray-blue overalls next to him.
"The ...... of the Gas Station"
Xiao Qi frowned, this kid has to take care of the sick and work so many jobs at the same time? Tired and not dead?
Xiao Xun saw that Xiao Qi's face was not good, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, so he took the bottle of unscrewed mineral water and wanted to pour water for Xiao Qi uneasily.
Xiao Qi didn't say anything, knowing that the change in his feelings had made the child uneasy, and he didn't do anything?
At this time, Xiao Qi was unconscious, but he didn't know that after he was reborn, although he tried his best to show that he had to be the same as a person of his age, he couldn't erase the fact that his biological age was nearly 30, and his words and deeds and demeanor were more stable than his peers.
I don't know if it's because I'm the boss, or because I'm with the solemn Wei Dabing. In the past half a year, Xiao Qi has faded away from his youth. Coupled with a long-term exercise in the body, there is an indescribable maturity and attraction between gestures, just sitting or standing quietly can attract the attention of others.
Xiao Qi's transformation can be seen even if he is as nervous as Sun Jin. On weekdays, he frolicked with Ma Dafu, but he no longer dared to be too presumptuous in front of Xiao Qi. Although Xiao Qi occasionally makes a joke or tells a meat joke with everyone, at this time everyone will feel that Xiao Qi is still the original Xiao Qi, gentle and understanding, but as long as Xiao Qi is alone, it will make people feel calm and restrained from the inside out.
Xiao Qi chatted with Xiao Xun for a while, but the child was still very restrained. It happened to be dinner at this time, and Xiaoxun said that he wanted to invite him to dinner.
Locked the door. Xiao Xun breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Brother Ye would be suffocated in such a stuffy and cramped room.
The sun is in full bloom outside at noon, and the heat wave is wave after wave. Xiao Xun led the way and walked ahead. Xiao Qi followed behind him and carefully observed Xiao Xun, Xiao Xun's big name is Shejiaxun, and Xiao Xun is just a milk name.
Xiaoxun's growth environment is not good. Aunt She's alone took Xiaoxun from the countryside to beg for a living in the big city. It's not easy to take care of Xiaoxun while working, and it is said that the children of poor families are in charge of the family early, which should not be an exaggeration for Xiaoxun.
At the age of five, I helped my mother, who worked hard for a day, pour water and wash her feet, and my mother was sad, and when I was older, I could help with laundry, buy vegetables and cook, and when I had a little strength, I would go to the small restaurant where my mother worked to help wash dishes and sweep the floor.
Chronic malnutrition is compounded by overwork and lack of proper rest. Xiao Xun, who is already 16 years old, looks younger than his actual age, but the vicissitudes on his face surpass his age.
Xiao Xun walked into the restaurant, said hello to the people in the restaurant, and took Xiao Qi to a seat with a fan. After asking Xiao Qi about the food he was avoiding, he recommended a few well-known dishes to Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi is not so particular about eating, so he ordered a few dishes according to Xiao Xun's recommendation, Xiao Xun seemed to be very happy, and ran away with the order menu.
It took about a quarter of an hour for Xiao Qi to see Xiao Xun wearing a chef's uniform that was not clean, and came to Xiao Qi's side with the few dishes he had just ordered.
"Brother Ye, I personally fried these things, you can taste them."
Xiao Xun was a little cramped and nervous and expectant, these dishes were fried by him, and he hoped that Brother Ye would eat well and not dislike it.
Xiao Qi took the chopsticks and looked at these dishes with full color and aroma, and had mixed feelings in his heart, saying that he had worked hard for one minute on the stage and ten years off the stage, and it could be seen that these dishes were not made by him overnight. This kid, how much hardship has he suffered, I'm afraid that this chef's uniform will not be working here for a short time.
I was a chef in a restaurant again, I rushed to work at a gas station after work, and then I went to work at a bar, and I had to take time to go to the hospital to accompany my aunt in the middle. However, at the age of 16, he was carefree and played with his classmates at school, occasionally skipping class and going to the game console with naughty children, but he shouldered the burden of the family prematurely, and there was a mother who suffered from uremia.
Xiao Qi picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth to chew, and smiled: "It's delicious." ”
Xiao Xun's hanging stone in his heart finally fell, and he grinned: "Brother Ye can eat more if you like, I have added a full amount of these dishes, and I will fry you again if it is not enough." ”
Xiao Qi took Xiao Xun's hand and motioned for him to sit down and eat together, Xiao Xun probably hadn't eaten lunch either.
Xiao Xun shook his head and said, "Now is the busiest time in the kitchen, it's already late to go home just now, there are no people in the kitchen, I'll eat when there are no guests." ”
Xiao Qi nodded, watching Xiao Xun walk quickly into the kitchen door, his thin shoulders couldn't even support this chef's suit, a bit funny like a child stealing an adult's clothes, but Xiao Qi felt extremely sad when he looked at it.
***********
Xiao Qi opened the door of the house, the silence and loneliness of the room, once upon a time he was not used to such solitude? Xiao Qi laughed at himself, people are creatures that are easy to get used to and are not satisfied with the status quo, they will want more and more, and the things they need will become more and more difficult to meet.
After saying goodbye to Xiao Xun at noon, Xiao Qi went to Wei Zheng's company, and in Wei Zheng's office, Xiao Qi waited until he got off work.
Xiao Qi made an appointment for a local dish, but Wei Zheng didn't seem to be very interested, Xiao Qi changed to Japanese cuisine, and he knew that Wei Zheng liked the cheese salmon and tempura very much.
At seven o'clock, Xiao Qi Wei Zheng and the two of them entered the store with a card, and the waiter greeted them warmly.
The food is very fresh, Wei Zheng ate most of the salmon alone, and there is sashimi, and Wei Zheng also likes it. Xiao Qi didn't have much enthusiasm for Japanese food, so he put his chopsticks after eating a little.
"Is it delicious?" Xiao Qi helped Wei Zheng remove the thorns in the fish, and then pushed them to Wei Zheng after picking them.
Wei Zheng didn't eat much since the noon meeting today, but now he has a good appetite and a good appetite, and he didn't hear anything vaguely.
Originally, they wanted to make a reservation for a private room today, but they booked it in a hurry and it was a time when there were many guests, so they could only take a seat in the hall.
Xiao Qi saw that Wei Zheng was eating well, and he also felt satisfied in his heart, and was about to pick clams when he saw Lan Chen, who had only spoken at noon, come with a girl with exquisite makeup, accompanied by the smiling face of the hotel manager.
Lan Chen's aura did not matter the occasion, even if he was already very low-key, his appearance was still a sound of surprise.
Wei Zheng naturally saw Lan Chen as well, but he only glanced at it and withdrew his gaze, although Xiao Qi also wanted to clear up the relationship, but Lan Chen had already walked towards him......
"Lan Shao." Xiao Qi stood up and nodded.
Lan Chen snorted, feeling that this 'Lan Shao' sounded a little harsh.
From an angle he couldn't see, Wei Zheng's face changed slightly.
Lan Chen walked all the way and could see Wei Zheng sitting next to Xiao Qi, but he just didn't want to see this person, he didn't even bother to pay attention to it, looked at Xiao Qi and asked directly, "Don't you don't like to eat these things?" Be careful not to spoil your stomach. ”
Xiao Qi was embarrassed, he really didn't like to eat these things, but ......
"It's fresh, and it's good to change things up once in a while." Xiao Qi saw the girl behind Lan Chen, and remembered that it was Jiang Kelan who said that she was going to introduce to Lan Chen as the bridesmaid at Jiang Da's wedding.
Lan Chen didn't seem to intend to introduce people to Xiao Qi, but the girl behind him was not willing to be calm.
"I would like to ask, but you are the owner of the Seven Leaves Dessert House? I look familiar, I don't know if I recognize the wrong person? "The girl's voice is sweet, not arrogant, and she is very beautiful.
Xiao Qi was slightly stunned, he knew this girl, but in the previous life, but in this life, he was sure that he had no intersection with this girl.
Soon, Xiao Qi came back to his senses and smiled: "It's the person in charge of the Seven Leaves Dessert House below, forgive me for being abrupt, have we seen it anywhere?" I think I've never forgotten such a beautiful girl, but I can't remember where we've met. ”
The girl smiled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes were very cute and generous: "My cousin took me to the dessert house last week, I like the products in Mr. Ye's store very much, I just heard your clerk talking about the little boss, I also saw you once in the store from afar, Mr. Ye naturally doesn't remember me." ”
Xiao Qi also smiled faintly: "To be affirmed by the beauty is the most beautiful award since the opening of my Seven Leaves Dessert House, I hope that next time I can see Miss and your friends in the dessert house." ”
The girl smiled generously and took the initiative to stretch out her hand, "My surname is Shen, my name is Shen Luoyan, I am very happy to meet Mr. Ye." ”
Xiao Qi shook hands with him lightly: "Ye Xiaoqi, I'm also very happy to meet Miss Shen." ”
Lan Chen's face has been pulled from just now to now, and no one knows what's wrong.
However, the manager had eyes, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly asked Lan Chen if he needed to change the big box.
Lan Chen waved his hand and said that he would eat here, but Miss Shen didn't say anything, and the guests were as they pleased.
So Lan Chen sat down at the table opposite Xiao Qi.
Lan Chen gritted his teeth at this meal, Miss Shen was thrilled, Ye Xiaoqi didn't know the taste of food, and the most true thing was Wei Zheng, who was as immobile as a mountain.
The four of them ate the same delicacy but had different thoughts, Xiao Qi couldn't eat it for a long time, but Wei Zheng's appetite was very good, Xiao Qi gave him the fish and meat he ate with relish, and the clams were all fat and delicious, Xiao Qi picked one and he ate one.
