Chapter Eighty-Eight: The End is a New Beginning
Back in his shop, Xu Ming was stunned, full of questions, and didn't know whether to ask, Mrs. Wu, who was making the bed and trying to squeeze two people, said with a smile: "What, you're scared when I'm like this, right?" ”
"I know you love Raippi, but I really don't know you're going to spill. "At that time, he was lying in bed and couldn't move, and he couldn't get rid www.biquge.info of her, so he knew that she was a big liar.
"I had no choice but to find out that you have to use someone's method to communicate with whomever you want. For example, if he makes a mistake, you are more muddy than him, and if he spills, you are more muddy than him, and so on. "Mrs. Wu has only realized such a truth since she went out alone these days. Although it has only been a short month, what guests has she not seen?
If you are full and say that there are worms in the soup, if you have diarrhea another day, if you want to take credit if you have no money, if you want to return after ordering...... If she thought that humility and forbearance did not care, she would have been angry and starved to death.
"Every time I see you, it's like I want to get to know you again." Xu Ming helped Mrs. Wu fold the sheets, sat down on the small bed that was a little wider, and patted the position beside her.
Mrs. Wu sat down quickly and leaned on Xu Ming's arms: "Looking at her two like that, she is thinking about how to compensate me at this time, and she has no heart to continue to make trouble." ”
"You do this for them, and you don't hesitate to act as a bad person, but they don't necessarily appreciate it. Maybe my friends won't have to do it in the future. ”
"If they calm down and think like that, it means that they are not smart enough, and I don't bother to be friends with them. I've figured it out these days. Mrs. Wu said slyly.
"What, let's hear it."
"Well, some people are good people but they are not necessarily suitable to be friends, so sometimes two good people are not necessarily happy together. Right now, I just want to be friends with smart people. At the very least, it won't be so tiring to be with smart people. ”
"Your principle, put it on, it is also suitable for husband and wife, right?" Xu Ming said with a smile.
"Yes, if you understand it this way, it means that you are also a smart person."
"Then when are you going to marry me, a smart man?" Xu Ming stared at Mrs. Wu's eyes tightly, afraid that she would hesitate to refuse, and asked, "You have been waiting for me to come to you these days, alone, right?" ”
"Waiting for you? Looking for me? "There really isn't this, Mrs. Wu thought, but seeing the guy's face full of anticipation, and thinking that he dared to come from afar. must have held an extremely firm heart, of course she was reluctant to lead him to think crankily. "Well, I've been waiting for you to come to me, and I want to marry you right away."
"Really? Then we'll go back to the formalities right away! Xu Ming was excited.
"Well, no, then we have to wait until half a month later, and the rent here is due in half a month, and I will go back with you to go through the formalities." She didn't know why the landlord suddenly stopped renting to her, and wanted to ask if there was nothing to sell tomorrow. Either way, she wanted to try and see if she could convince the landlord to keep renting.
"Do you plan to continue opening this shop?" Xu Ming asked.
"Of course, for the time being, I think so, but it depends on the situation. By the way, are you going to go to town when you come here this time? A while ago, my brother came and said that your school was almost finished. ”
"Well, actually, it's not a big deal, there's an overseer there, and it's okay if I don't go. I'll stay here with you. ”
"Don't, it's not appropriate for your big boss to nest in my little nest, what should you be busy with." In fact, if he wasn't a big boss, if the two of them had known each other earlier, it would have been good for the two of them to open a small shop to support themselves. The husband sings with the wife, which is very good. But he is a big boss who does big things, and it is not condescending to nest in her.
"I'm mainly busy with you now," Xu Ming picked up Mrs. Wu's chin and said with a confused smile, "I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to follow you." ”
In order to come to find her as soon as possible, he even went abroad several times. finally got up and looked for her, how could he just say go?
"Oh, it's okay, I can't bear you. With you as a big boss as a military advisor, maybe I can make a chain store. Besides, I owe too much and have to find a way to pay it back, so I will save a lot of money by having you as a free laborer. Okay, you stay, I'm ready. It's just, how did your feet heal so quickly? Mrs. Wu asked.
"Well, I'm an Iron Warrior. Just tinkering. Also, don't worry, I will definitely follow the arrangement. ”
"Okay, it's just that I have a big problem right now and I have to go to the landlord tomorrow. As a clerk, you can honestly see it at home, and every customer who enters the store tomorrow will give a free biscuit. Alas, it's all to blame on those two people, delaying me to make money. Anyway, I'm sleepy. ”
At this time, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and Mrs. Wu turned over and fell asleep after speaking.
And Xu Ming still looked at the lovely child in his arms with a hundred times more energy, the bed was small, hard and uncomfortable, and the bathhouse was dirty, smelly and disgusting, but he felt that this was his happy day these days.
Mrs. Wu got up before dawn, quietly pulled out the head wrapped in Xu Ming's arms, and was busy kneading the dough and baking small cakes. Although there is no meat or soup left, people who enter the store cannot be left hungry. This little cake is an advertising fee, and it attracts people's hearts.
Because she slept late and woke up early last night, when she rushed to the landlord's house on the bus, Mrs. Wu slept past the station. Finally, I finally sat back and found the landlord's house. climbed up to the fifth floor and knocked on the door of the landlord's house, afraid that the caller would not see her, so he deliberately attacked suddenly.
The landlord naturally didn't want to see her, but everyone came to the door, and brought gifts, so he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, how could he be embarrassed to kick people out of the door?
"Sister, I'm here this time, mainly to say goodbye to you, it's nothing, don't worry about it." Mrs. Wu followed the customs of the countryside and called a woman two years older than her own mother her sister. Lin Yue told her that when she called this person young, people would be happy.
Hearing Mrs. Wu say this, the old landlord put down a guarded face and said with a smile: "Oh, sister, you still know etiquette." After speaking, he hurriedly got up and went to bring tea and fruits, and greeted Mrs. Wu warmly, eating and drinking.
Mrs. Wu was not polite, and took a look around with her eyes, and found that the decoration and furnishings in this house were very simple, and it was estimated that the landlord was not a rich and noble family, and he was old and had no children, so he must be counting on the person who lived by rent, and the reason why he was so resolute not to rent the house to himself was that someone offered a higher price.
Mrs. Wu just grabbed the fruit and ate it in a big gulp, but did not speak. Grandma Xu told her before that it is called knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, and there is another one that silence is golden. She doesn't know much about the landlord now, the only thing is that she once had a son who was killed by mistake in a fight and sentenced to death, and now they are the only two left. Since she doesn't understand, she can only listen to others first, and since they don't say it for the time being, she eats first.
"Hmm, it's delicious, isn't it?" The landlord couldn't help the embarrassment of the silence and asked with a smile.
"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious, I've never eaten such a delicious fruit." Mrs. Wu flattered.
"Well, this is no ordinary fruit, and my eldest nephew bought it for me from a trip to Thailand."
"Oh, that's it, no wonder, it's so delicious." Mrs. Wu said as she ate the mango that tasted no different from the one in the supermarket.
"Alas, I also know that it is not easy for you, you are a big girl from a poor ravine, and it is not easy for you to open such a shop." The landlord finally started talking about the store.
Mrs. Wu hurriedly looked pitiful, took out the old sadness in her heart and said: "Yes, sister, you know that I came out of a poor ravine, but you don't know why I came out." To tell you the truth, I was rejected and driven out, I, I can't give birth. "Mrs. Wu naturally knows what it is like for people who don't have children.
"Oh, huh? Your old sister and I are even more pitiful, my son's eldest is in trouble, and it's gone. It's just us two left. It is said that raising children to prevent old age, we see that we are seventy years old, and there is no one to take care of in the future, but what should we do? The landlord's eyes were red as he spoke. Wiping away his tears, he continued.
"To tell you the truth, it's not easy for you, but we also have our difficulties. When we are old and have no other income, our family lives on the rent. It's enough to eat and drink normally, but there really has to be three long and two short, no one takes care of it, and it's not enough to have money. ”
"My eldest nephew, who used to go out to work in Thailand, has come back and said that he wants to start a small business and wants to use our place. You say, he spoke, can I refuse? I'll have to count on him in the future. ”
As soon as Mrs. Wu heard this, she knew that it was useless to say more, it was related to the matter of pension, and she was her own nephew, so it would be useless for her to give more rent. Originally, I guessed that people came for money, but it seems that people really aren't. I still don't do enough Taoism, and I judge things too arbitrarily.
"That's, that's, how to say, a family, it's always hard to refuse." Mrs. Wu said with a smile, putting down the fruit in her hand and wanting to get up and leave. Since I know that it is a problem that I can't solve, I have to think of another way.
"By the way, my nephew doesn't have any skills. The main reason is that your business is good, and I want to open a store there to sell the same as you, and I want to ask you for advice. Seeing that Mrs. Wu wanted to leave, the landlord hurriedly added another cup of tea.
"Asking for advice? Alas, I didn't say it, your nephew can't make my taste even if he buys the same as me, and my taste is handed down from my ancestors. I can't just tell people about this recipe. You didn't look, the one not far from my house that sells mutton soup originally sold meat buns and cold skin, and when I saw that my mutton soup was selling well, it was on mutton soup, but the business was not as good as mine. "Mrs. Wu thought to herself, this old guy is too inauthentic, I have to find another place as soon as I open my business, and he still wants to ask me for advice and rob me of my business, isn't this a bully?
"Hey, look at me, I'm an old fool, don't take it to heart. It's me who is not good, patronizing my own home, and not thinking about you. The old landlord turned a corner.
"Actually, I have the best of both worlds. Your eldest nephew, you can buy the goods from me, I will charge the cost, and I will send it to you when I am ready. Make sure that the soup you make at home will taste like one of the ones I made. "Since her store needs to find another place, I don't know when it will reopen, and I don't know if I can find a place to reopen, so she can also make a small profit during this period, and when the total living expenses are not too bad.
"That's good, that's good, I'll call my eldest nephew and ask him to come over and have a good talk. At the beginning, I told him to talk to you, and he said that you must not agree. Look, ginger is still my old spicy. The landlord called, and Mrs. Liuwu was stunned in a daze.
Why is it that you are old ginger? What did you do? If you don't say what you say before or after, have you fallen into someone else's trap? Mrs. Wu went back and forth through the conversation between the two, but she still didn't understand. So simply withdraw first.
"That's right, sister, I still have something to do in the store, and it will take me time to find a new place, so I'll go back to the store first, and you let your eldest nephew go directly to the store, right?" Mrs. Wu got up and said.
"Big sister, don't you regret it? We've got it all figured. The landlord took Mrs. Wu's hand and said.
"Well, no, I really had to go back beforehand. Just ask him to contact me, don't you have my number? ”
After speaking, he hurried back, probably discussing it with Xu Ming to see if what he said was feasible. After all, he is a big boss, and he always has a long-term vision, so it is always good to listen to his opinion without relying on him for support.
When Mrs. Wu rushed back to the store, Xu Ming was in the store earnestly distributing cakes to the customers who came to the store. He tied her apron and put on her hat, and stood there talking and laughing with people: "Well, there is no soup and meat in the store today, these are sent by the proprietress who is afraid that you will run for nothing." I hope to take care of our business more in the future. ”
Xu Mingren's handsome voice is good, a few little girls took the cake and didn't leave, they looked at him with a smile on the side, and took out their mobile phones to record videos and take pictures from time to time.
"Well, okay, okay, welcome to come tomorrow, our handsome clerk is here every day, and there will be soup tomorrow." Also, if you introduce classmates to more than four people, I will give you a discount. But the kids still had no intention of leaving.
Mrs. Wu pushed a group of little girls to the door, and said with a smile: "When I have time, I will take a photo of my handsome guy and send it to you." ”
"Okay, then we'll come."
"Auntie, you have to talk and count, this uncle is really handsome!"
"Let's go, let's go, come back in the evening."
"yes, yes, it's late."
A group of children ran away laughing and laughing, and Mrs. Wu closed the door and hung up the sign that was closed today. turned around and rushed into Xu Ming's arms, and said coquettishly: "Quick, carry me to the bed, I can't stand it." ”
"What can't stand it? You, you, in broad daylight, you won't? Xu Ming blushed.
"Ah, your brain is too yellow, I'm so sleepy that I can't stand it, I didn't sleep well at all last night, I got up so early this morning, and I have to go to stock in a while!!" Mrs. Wu knocked on Xu Ming's head and shouted.
"Well, that's it, I thought it was ......" Xu Ming smiled shyly, carried Mrs. Wu to the bedroom door cot and put it away, and lay down on it, holding Mrs. Wu in his arms, and gently sniffing the smell of Mrs. Wu. A hand dishonestly reached into Mrs. Wu's clothes.
"Hey, I'm not honest." Mrs. Wu grabbed Xu Ming's wandering hand and said with a smile.
"No, I'm just warm and warm, my hands are too cold."
"you, you can kill someone hot this day, and you still have cold hands? Don't, I'm so sleepy, wait for me to sleep and kiss you well. After Mrs. Wu finished speaking, she kissed Xu Ming on the face, lay down and fell asleep after a while.
Xu Ming looked at Mrs. Wu, who was gradually breathing steadily in his arms, gently kissed her on the lips, and fell asleep with a smile.
He was tired too, and he probably hadn't slept well for a long time these days......
