Chapter 152: Reality Returns
This trick is the idea of an employee of Xingyuan Restaurant, when the boss held a mobilization meeting in order to compete, asked everyone's opinions, in order to get more wages, everyone can be said to be working together, this trick is one of the products.
The person who came up with the idea is busy in the kitchen in the backyard at the moment. It is said that she is not in charge of the main dish, but only in charge of the snack before the meal, which should be a relatively leisurely position. At the moment, she is the busiest one in the kitchen, like a butterfly wearing flowers, wandering between this small square inch.
"Xiaoying - two copies of plum blossom three lanes, golden cup, and orchid honeydew, one to take away, one to eat here, hurry up!" Xiao Er outside greeted him, making this busy figure even more busy.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Xiaoying muttered, "I don't know what's going on today, I rushed to a piece, and everyone has to do so much, and the boss refuses to add more manpower, if it goes on like this, I'm about to die of exhaustion"
My own boss is good, usually these employees are not bad, and the wages given are okay, but they are too conservative and too calculating, and they always want to let them be used by two or three people, so that these people below are complaining.
Two days ago, the chef Cai complained to her, saying that she was too tired and didn't want to do it, although she also had some small complaints in her heart, she was not at all easier than Master Cai, but she still persuaded Master Cai, not for anything else, just the salary, here is one of the best in Haitian City.
Xiaoying's dim sum is also one of the signatures of Xingyuan Restaurant, although it has only been here for less than two months. It's already famous. For this reason, the boss also specially set up a separate room for her, so that she could concentrate on making snacks. Although it is a little tired. But the joy in my heart is also real, and it feels good to be recognized.
Occasionally, she would use this to blackmail her boss in exchange for a day off for her to go out and play. As a result, she will be busier for the next two or three days. Although tired, this dull, busy life makes her very satisfied.
The face towel on Xiaoying's face was never taken off. It is said that there is a large scar on his face, which is very scary, so he always wears a veil. The people in the store forgave her. and never let her go to the front, lest she feel even more inferior. Although there are often guests who come to eat snacks and ask to meet her, some even promise to pay a lot of money. But they were all rejected by the boss without hesitation. As for whether he is considerate of Xiaoying or afraid of being poached. Then it is unknown.
Xiaoying enjoys this feeling of being protected, even if the boss is really afraid of being poached, it is also her value to let him do this, this feeling of mysterious presence makes her feel good.
If it could go on like this, she would still be happy.
It's a pity that the arrival of carrier pigeons outside the window has made her smile freeze at the corner of her lips. Silently untie the note from the pigeon's leg. In a bad mood, she would love to make this pigeon into a roast pigeon, she believed. It must have tasted good, but in the end, she didn't do it.
Pouting and unfolding the note, Juanxiu's small handwriting, a few simple words announced the end of the dream. "The end of rebirth, everything returns" These eight words may not be understood by others, but she can understand the meaning best, which announces the end of her days as a small shadow, and indicates the end of her dream, everything will eventually return!
That's right, she is not Xiaoying, or Xiaoying herself is just a made-up character, and does not really exist in this simulation game. Her real name is Mo Qingxue, because she accidentally broke into the ghost village, because she couldn't bear the pain of the past, so the ghost shadow Huaixiang gave her the right to dream.
In this dream, she has been a luthier, a weaver, and a cook, and behind each identity there is a different life experience, personality and mood, and she tried her best to play them.
She even thought that she was the pianist who was sad because she had no bosom friend, that she was the embroiderer who was skilled in embroidery and that her family was happy and laughed happily every day, and that she was the little dim sum master who was a little clever and a little arrogant, calculating her little days every day, occasionally complaining because she was too tired, and occasionally showing a sly smile because she was appreciated or had the most salary when she was paid.
However, this piece of paper and eight words completely knocked her back to her original form, and she had to wake up after dreaming; Reality will eventually return!
Angrily crumpled the note into a ball and stuffed it into the burning stove, Xiaoying's expression was a little distorted, and he said hatefully, "I don't care, as long as I don't go out, then I'll still be Xiaoying, see how you let her return"
Although he said this, the thoughts in his heart ran away from the nine heavens. At the beginning, the ghost shadow Huaixiang didn't know what power to use, but after saying that sentence to her, in just three days, he gave her a new identity, background, and new job, and the only requirement for her was to experience it well.
At that time, she didn't understand what the ghost Huaixiang wanted her to experience, until she really threw herself into that role and tried her best to play it, she suddenly understood that she wanted her to experience a different life.
Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, everyone knows this sentence, and they will all say, how many can really understand the pain in the hearts of others? It's not all about thinking that they are the most bitter ones.
Hungry people yearn for wealth, ordinary people yearn for excitement, people who live without worries yearn for emotions, all of them, they will not see what they already have, but they always yearn for those who can't get it. Huaixiang wants her to experience it, let her know that her happiness is also what others are yearning for, she doesn't want to live up to her wishes, and has been living according to her arrangement, and even indulges in it a little.
There was a sound of footsteps running outside the door, and Xiaoying looked out, stunned for a while. The silver-white figure was so familiar, the company that had been accompanied day and night, just a glance out of the corner of her eye, she could be sure that it was the Wushuang she missed; The one who has been with her and protected her after walking alone.
She had promised it to help Lone Walk get revenge. At this moment, she is immersed in this peace of mind and can't extricate herself, that is the guilt in her heart, how can she see it again.
The silver figure flashed. has already entered the house, Xiaoying quickly turned around, touched the face towel on his face, and covered his face intact, so he was relieved. Footsteps stopped at the door, and a warm voice came. made her body stiffer even more she thought it was just Wushuang herself playing, but she didn't expect it. He also followed up in the backyard.
"Wushuang, why did you run here, this is someone else's" The voice was cut off in his mouth, and he looked in the direction that Wushuang was staring at. Yi Jian also looked at the back in disbelief. How could it be, how could it be her? She disappeared so decisively, so completely, she didn't care about the cousin who could let her go, and she didn't want to protect her all the time, so she left, just a few words of explanation, but she couldn't let anyone accept it.
These days. He has traveled to so many places with Wushuang, and it seems that there has never been such a person in the rivers and lakes. Those vigorous pursuits, the sensational battles, seemed to be his imagination, except for Wushuang, there was nothing that could prove that she ever existed.
Ordinary floral cloth clothes, black hair in a cloud bun, and a slight turn of the side face covered with an ordinary gray cloth scarf, such a woman, just like those ordinary cooks in the shop, without the slightest shadow of that person. However, Wushuang will not admit her mistake, and he will not admit her wrong.
Xiaoying deliberately lowered her voice, pretended to be hoarse, and said with a sideways face, "This guest officer, we are in the back kitchen, and outsiders are not allowed to come in, so you better go out quickly."
Yi Jian hesitated for a moment, but still turned around and walked out, but Wushuang bit the hem of his clothes, looked at him anxiously, and then looked at the girl who spoke just now, he knew what it looked like, leaned down and said to it, "Since she doesn't want to face it yet, won't you follow me for a while?" ”
Xiaoying's expression froze, it seems that she still has to face it after all, so why deceive herself here.
Wushuang is still in a stalemate with Yi Jian and refuses to leave, but Yi Jian is unwilling to force her, since she thinks it is better to live like this, why force her to return to her previous life. Sigh softly, "Since you don't want to go, then stay, I'll wait for you at the inn"
Finally, he patted Wushuang's head, leaned on the sword and glanced at the figure, turned around and walked out.
The more Yi Jian looks like this, the more sad Xiaoying's heart is, people who have experienced life and death together before, but now they deliberately avoid it for the selfishness in their hearts, and they have become so strange.
looked at the white figure who turned away, and then looked down at the Wushuang who was holding his head high and looking at his own eyes, and finally sighed, and reached out to remove the veil from his face.
Still that beautiful face, with a gentle smile, looking at it so gently, and said softly, "Wushuang, long time no see, I'm back!" ”
Wushuang's eyes could see obvious joy, and he kept circling around her, very excited.
When the shopkeeper came in, he saw such a picture, a beautiful woman standing in the snack room, and the coarse cloth clothes on her body could not hide her brilliance. A silver wolf kept circling around her, looking very excited.
The strange woman is okay, it looks very pleasing to the eye, but this silver wolf really scared Xiao Er, and after a careful look, he saw that this wolf came with a guest officer just now, and he praised it at the time, "It looks really majestic"!
"Uh, may I ask this girl, where is our dim sum chef Xiaoying? Also, this is the back kitchen, and outsiders are not allowed to come in" Seeing that it was such a beautiful woman, the shopkeeper was also politely and kindly reminded.
The woman looked at him and sneered, her voice a little familiar, "Knife, it's me"
The shopkeeper thought about it, isn't this voice Xiaoying's? However, didn't it say that the face was ugly, how could it be so beautiful?
Seeing that the shopkeeper looked surprised, the woman didn't explain, but just asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The shopkeeper thought of the purpose of his coming, and exclaimed, "Ah, by the way, is the dim sum ready, the guests are in a hurry."
Pointing to the stove on the side, "Go get it yourself, is the boss there?" I had something to do with him."
"Oh, yes, Xiaoying, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful, why did you keep covering your face, I thought "Turn around, there is no one in the house for a long time, and the shopkeeper doesn't care, so hurry up and get busy with his own business." (To be continued......)
