The proprietress looked blankly at the rapidly reversing scenery outside the car window, and said, "Don't talk about this, turn around in front of you is Yipinlou, you turn in from here." ”
Yan Zhen saw that the proprietress diverted the topic, so she stopped asking questions with interest. At that time, it was from this sentence that he began to re-examine her, and found that she did not look like a mercenary boss lady, nor was she a vulgar woman who only made money for the sake of making money.
Yipinlou is a comprehensive Chinese and Western restaurant, which serves Chinese and Western food, and the dining environment is very good. Yan Zhen came to Long Li once before, but he didn't expect the second time he came with the boss. They parked their cars and walked into Yipinlou together. At this time, it is not the peak season for dining, but the full seat rate is as high as 60%, and business is very good. In the restaurant, soft pure music is played, like a silent spring rain, which makes people feel comfortable.
In order to facilitate eating and chatting with Yan Zhen, the proprietress asked the waiter to lead them to the private room on the second floor and chose a location near the window. The dining environment here is much quieter than that of the general seats, and it is a booth-style, so as long as there is no loud noise between the tables, neither side can hear what the other is saying. Yan Zhen sat down face to face with the proprietress, and the proprietress saw that Yan Zhen had some restraints and told him to be casual and not polite, Yan Zhen saw that the proprietress had something to ask him for help tonight.
The proprietress asked Yan Zhen to order, Yan Zhen finished ordering like a dirt bun, she smiled, and ordered two more signature dishes of Yipinlou.
It seems that the proprietress often comes here to eat, the foreman here is very affectionate to the proprietress to call Sister Xu, Yan Zhen still doesn't know what the proprietress is called, he felt that there is nothing awkward about calling her the proprietress before getting in the car, and now he suddenly doesn't know why he feels a little awkward to call her the proprietress with the foreman, he really wants to call her Sister Xu with the foreman, but he still calls her the proprietress after serious consideration, there is not enough cordiality between them, and there is a gap.
"Hostess, do you come here often?" Yan Zhen asked when the waiter finished ordering, and casually picked up the teapot to refill the tea for the proprietress.
The proprietress nodded on the table to express her gratitude and said with a smile: "The owner of this shop is my uncle, so you are welcome, just order whatever you want to eat." ”
"Wow, you didn't say it sooner." Yan Zhen said as he refilled the tea for the proprietress .
The proprietress smiled at Yan Zhen and said, "What, I regret it." ”
Yan Zhen refilled his tea and said, "Yes." ”
"Then I'll allow you to take a regret pill tonight, just order whatever you want, you're welcome." The proprietress took a sip of the teacup elegantly.
Yan Zhen put down the teapot and said with a smile: "I'm joking with you, no need." ”
The proprietress smiled: "Then feel free." ”
"Yating, you're here." At this time, a small old man in his fifties came over. The old man is kind and kind, and at first glance he is a very kind person. Yan Zhen heard the identity of this old man from their greetings, he should be the uncle that the proprietress told him just now.
Yan Zhen finally knew that the name of the proprietress was Xu Yating. This is a very good name, as the name suggests, elegant without losing generosity, gentle without losing stability. At that moment, Yan Zhen regarded all the rumors that the proprietress was a sullen and a bitch as slander.
After Xu Yating's uncle greeted Xu Yating, he suddenly pointed at Yan Zhen and asked Xu Yating, "Who is he?" How I've never seen it before. ”
"He's a new salesman for our company." Xu Yating introduced.
"New salesman." Xu Yating's uncle looked at Yan Zhen, and looked at Yan Zhen with a pair of eyes very vigilantly, looking at Yan Zhen very uncomfortable.
"Hello uncle." Yan Zhen didn't like it very much, her uncle looked at him like this. This old man was too uneducated, but this old man was the uncle of the proprietress, and he didn't dare to offend, so he had to get up and reach out to shake the old man's hand.
"Don't mistake your uncle, I'm her uncle, not your uncle, don't be mistaken." The old man said unceremoniously.
Yan Zhen didn't expect the old man to have such an attitude towards him, he suddenly became embarrassed, and looked at Xu Yating at a little bewildered.
"Uncle, what are you talking nonsense?" Xu Yating smiled and said to Yan Zhen: "Xiao Yan, don't pay attention to my uncle, he likes to talk nonsense." ”
"What, I like to talk nonsense." The old man hurriedly said: "There are too many little white faces in this society now, I am afraid that you will be deceived by this stinky boy......"
"Okay, you talk nonsense, next time I won't come to eat with you." Xu Yating was also anxious.
When Xu Yating said this, the old man's mouth smacked twice, and he said, "Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, it's okay." ”
Xu Yating smiled like a coquettish little girl: "It's pretty much the same." ”
"What, this is pretty much the same, you and Wen Qiang haven't come to eat with me for a long time." The old man said: "By the way, I heard that you and Wen Qiang have been having a lot of trouble recently, what are you making awkwardly?" ”
As soon as Xu Yating heard the old man mention her husband's name, her face turned gloomy, and she said, "Don't listen to people's nonsense, I haven't had anything to do with Wen Qiang." ”
The old man said, "You still said that you didn't make any trouble, I know everything, you all sleep in separate rooms......"
"Uncle, can you let me have a quiet meal at your place. If you do this again, I'll have to take the guest away. Xu Yating hurriedly interrupted the old man's words as if she was afraid that the old man would tell some secrets: "You don't have to worry about my affairs with him, we will handle it ourselves." When she said this, she glanced at the old man, and signaled the old man not to talk about these family affairs in front of outsiders, and the old man said: "I will talk to Wen Qiang next time, if he doesn't treat me, I have to scold him to death." ”
At this time, the waiter served them a plate of beef in sauce and opened a bottle of French martillon, and the old man left. Yan Zhen and Xu Yating poured red wine and chatted while eating, as if a pair of old friends were getting together, without a sense of estrangement. However, her uncle was always standing at the counter and looking at them, as if he was watching them, which made Yan Zhen very uncomfortable.
"Your uncle is funny, like an old urchin." Yan Zhen couldn't help but comment on Xu Yating's uncle, wanting to get her attention and ask her to drive her uncle away. But Xu Yating smiled and said: "Let's ignore him, he has some nerves, he won't come." By the way, why don't you become an editor and a salesman? I think it's good to be an editor. In the end, she quickly diverted the topic, not wanting to talk to Yan Zhen about her uncle anymore.
"If you had to choose, what would you choose?" Yan Zhen said with a smile.
Xu Yating said: "If I had to choose, I would choose to be an editor. ”
Yan Zhen smiled bitterly.
"Why don't you agree with my choice?"
"If you knew about me, you wouldn't think so."
"Oh, do you give up your editorial job to be a salesman and still have a story?"
"Hmm."
"Can you tell me about it?"
