Chapter 2 Gentleness
"Before meeting you and the boss, I was trapped by my thoughts and couldn't live all day, like carrying a secret, I wanted to let go but I was reluctant, after meeting your boss, all my thoughts gathered together as if I had found a breakthrough, they were no longer willing to sink so much, they shouted, boiled, jumped, and rushed out with each other, pouring down, but I didn't feel exhausted, but like seeing the dawn.

The entire people who returned to the building, including the boss, were stunned by Xia Han's words, and Xiao Wu was the first to come back to his senses, blinking his eyes in disbelief, "Have you taken a fancy to our boss?" ”
The boss almost squirted out of his nose with a sip of wine.
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't know this person at all, don't be deceived by this person under the guise of feelings." The boss was a little depressed, he felt that this person wanted to find a reason for himself to live here, but he still had to pull her as a backpad.
Xiao Liu looked at the boss and then at Xia Han, then lowered his head and thought about what he had just heard, and after making sure that it was not an auditory hallucination, he considered and spoke, "This son, did you know my shopkeeper before?" How did you meet? He was really curious, if it weren't for the fact that the object was his shopkeeper, he wouldn't be so curious, he sweared.
Xia Han has actually been watching the boss's reaction since she finished speaking, but it's a pity that she is too normal as usual.
"It's in today's Bishui River..."
"Bang." The boss's glass shattered to the ground, and she gritted her teeth and threatened him in her hoarse voice, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll throw you out." ”
Xia Han saw her like a little leopard with bared teeth eating and laughing, and then turned into a hearty laugh, his eyebrows and eyes were like a quarter moon fading away from the cold, and the whole back to the building was the laughter that emanated from his heart, echoing infinitely, in circles, with the fragrance of pear blossoms, scattered in all directions.
Xiao Wu saw that he was smiling beautifully, and he also laughed with him.
The first time Xiao Liu saw his shopkeeper's emotions so intense, I don't know why, I just thought it was funny.
The dumb lady felt that Xia Han was ruthless to the boss or not, and it was certain that there was no hostility, and she laughed.
The boss probably also felt as if he said that it was really not feasible to throw him out, and he laughed out loud if he didn't consider it.
In short, in the end, everyone laughed for some reason, but the laughter was extremely true, and it was true to accept Xia Han from then on.
"Meet from all over the world like neighbors, toast to yourself." The boss stood up and raised his glass to the moon to everyone, with high interest.
"What a toast to yourself." Xia Han also stood up with her, silently said thank you, the boss sighed disdainfully, took a bone and gnawed it away.
Seeing that Shi Qingqing was like this, the dumb girl shook her head helplessly, and gestured to Xia Han not to mind.
Xia Han smiled and nodded, how could he mind? He was already satisfied.
Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu felt very happy to know someone like Xia Han, and this person still looked at their shopkeeper differently, and did not stick to the eyes of ordinary people to look at the shopkeeper, how could they not be happy.
"Cheers to yourself, and toast to you." The two shouted in unison, and Xiao Liu even squeezed his eyebrows directly at Xia Han, his eyes were really special!
The snow gradually began to fall outside the house, but the inside of the house was still warm as spring, and the firelight reflected everyone's smiling faces like pear blossoms blooming, white as snow, but warm as the spring sun.
Xiao Wu put his hand on Xia Han's shoulder by getting drunk, and even the boss thought that Xia Han would push her away, but he didn't expect him to just smile lightly and ask her softly, "You're drunk, do you want to rest?" ”
Xiao Wu shook his head, pointed at his nose and asked, "Young man, why didn't you take a fancy to me?" I think I'm as beautiful as a flower, what's wrong, why don't you like me? ”
Obviously, Xiao Wu didn't really ask Xia Han again, so he didn't answer, just smiled and listened to her continue.
"Shopkeeper, you say, what's wrong with me? Why don't they want me? Xiao Wu said that tears and snot flowed down, and the boss was distressed for a while, when he picked her up, she was on the Bishui River, wearing a shabby wedding dress, needless to say, she knew what happened.
The boss walked over and handed Xiao Wu a fast handkerchief, looking at her puzzled, "There is me, Xiaoliu and dumb girl, what else do you need that man for?" That's how you want to serve people? Want to do laundry, give birth to children, and take children to wait for your in-laws? Why don't you wait for us? ”
Xia Han, who was drinking, suddenly looked at her with burning eyes.
The boss didn't care, Wuzi poured a glass of wine for her and Xiao Wu, "If you really want to get married, Ming'er and I will go to the grocery store to sum up the total and prepare a rich dowry for you, we don't worry, don't worry." ”
"Wow..." Xiao Wu couldn't help but fall into the arms of the boss, crying promally, sometimes saying something intermittently, but the boss didn't hear it clearly, just echoed.
Xiao Liu sneered on the side, "Xiao Wu, don't cry, you're going to drown us back upstairs, right?" Then it will be up to you what you take as a dowry. ”
Xiao Wuyi passed, and Xiao Liu fell into the snow pit with the meat that had not been bitten off in his mouth and the chair, and it was still the one that fell this morning.
"It's not easy for the old lady to come back, you will follow my ass and tear down the stage, you will keep vigil tonight, don't lose anything to the old lady." Xiao Wu got up from Xiao Liu's arms, wiped away his tears, sat up straight, and began to eat wine and meat again.
The boss pouted, Xiaoliu didn't pick up the good time, so she had to interject at this time, and she could only sympathize with it.
"Dumb girl, serve me a bowl of soup." The boss handed the bowl over, but Xia Han caught it, and his fingers swiped across her palm, which was cold.
"I'll help you sheng." Xia Han looked at her and smiled, his deep voice soft.
The boss pouted, she drank so much wine that she should do some work, "After eating later, you can help the dumb lady clean up the dishes and chopsticks!" ”
After saying that, he took a pot of wine and went back to his room.
The corners of Xia Han's mouth twitched slightly.
Xiao Wu took the fish soup in Xia Han's hand with a smile, and thanked him, "Young Master Han, you don't have to mind, my family's treasurer's temper is like this, today she is willing to come out to eat this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with us, I am very surprised." ”
"What does your shopkeeper do on weekdays?" Xia Han asked.
Xiao Wu saw that the boss had closed the door and said in a low voice, "Boss, she has to go to the Bishui River every day to walk around, and then stay back in the building, sometimes on the roof, sometimes in the room, and don't do anything, just drink." ”
Xia Han's brows furrowed slightly, "Doesn't she have any friends?" ”
"Yes, the daughter-in-law of the house opposite is her sister, and I don't know how they smell the same, but they get along well, but the fierce daughter-in-law recently gave birth to a baby, and she rarely comes to visit the door."
Xia Han sighed softly and didn't answer again, but poured a few sips of wine into the dark room that had been extinguished.
About everyone has something on their minds, and after the boss left, several people either ate food silently or drank wine by themselves, and they didn't say much.
The brazier turned from a monstrous flame to charcoal smoke, and Xia Han also took a pot of wine back to his new room and slept in his clothes.
The rest of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were noisy and noisy, and they all dispersed after eating with the dumb girl.
The boss opened his eyes and heard the sound of the door closing, and he also closed his eyes and fell asleep, dreamless all night.
The next day, the boss turned over and sat up from the bed, saw Xia Han sitting on the windowsill, fell off the bed in fright, and asked tremblingly with his orchid fingers, "You... How long have you been here? ”
Xia Han greeted her with a smile, completely ignoring her questioning, "Morning, the dumb lady has made breakfast and asked me to call you." With that, he jumped off the windowsill and walked out, helping to greet the guests.
The boss was speechless, but it seemed that she was making a fuss.
"Little Liu, bring me a plate of hot water, I want to wash my cough." The boss pushed open the window and shouted.
"Got it, it's coming." Xiao Liu was as busy as a spinning top, but he still responded with his neck tilted.
Seeing this, Xia Han secretly grabbed him and whispered, "I'll go." ”
Xiao Liu remembered what he had said to the shopkeeper yesterday, and said with a wink, "Cheng, don't forget me when the time comes." ”
Xia Han smiled and nodded.
He bent down and scooped a basin of water from the iron pot, stretched out his index finger and tried it, and felt that the temperature was not bad, so he took it to the boss's room.
When he was doing all this, Xiao Wu kept staring at him, but he was willing to bend down and stain the dust and cover it with smoke, which was actually for her shopkeeper, oh my God, Xiao Wu only felt that the sky was about to fall.
"Don't worry about it, that's the man in charge, hurry up and look for something else." Xiao Liu took the pot of wine and walked around Xiao Wu, refilled the guests at the adjacent table, and then was busy serving the food at the other table, with quick hands and feet.
Xiao Wu snorted, a little dissatisfied but didn't refute it, and went over to help.
Xia Han didn't know about this little episode, and when she went to the boss's house with water, she saw her sitting on the bed in front of the window in single clothes, and couldn't help frowning, "Why only wear such a little, be careful of contracting the wind and cold." ”
"Winter is a very comfortable season for me, and I don't feel cold at all." The boss continued to look at the blue water river not far away without looking back.
Xia Han put down the hot water basin and wanted to go over to touch her pulse but she inadvertently staggered, "Why are you here to bring me hot water." ”
Xia Han was silent for a while, looked at her with deep eyes, and saw that she was still just carrying him, so he just sighed secretly and said softly: "Probably Xiaoliu felt that I would only help more and more when I helped in the past." ”
The boss leaned his head and poked down from the window, saw many women sitting in the store, understood, glanced at him with a smile, and said with a smile, "Look at you alone, why don't you settle down in our Dongwu, you see, our Dongwu women should be worse than you Beixia women, right?" ”
Xia Han smiled lightly, but just looked at her, as if he would not be angry no matter what she said.
The boss punched the cotton, instinctively sullen, and after washing up quickly, he fell down against the window, and poured a soup chicken on Xiao Wu, who was busy working below......
"Shopkeeper, you can't do that to me." Xiao Wu cried and pleaded with a sad face.
The boss hurriedly said, "Master Han, how can you pour water like this, and don't see if there is anyone below, really, Xiao Wu, are you okay?" Hurry back to the house and change your clothes. ”
"Huh? It's Han Gongzi, it's okay, it's okay, it's just a little water, you must not feel guilty, I am really fine, you must not take it to heart. Xiao Wu wiped his face and grinned, shivering in the wind but still laughing.
The boss pouted, does it have to be so obvious?
"Poof" Seeing her sullen pouting appearance, Xia Han couldn't help but chuckle, seeing her eyes swept over, she hurriedly coughed a few times to cover up, turned her head and said to Xiao Wu downstairs, "Xiao Wu, I didn't see you, I'm sorry, you go back and change your clothes quickly, and I'll cook you a bowl of ginger soup to go to the cold later." ”
"Okay, thank you, Childe." Xiao Wu was fascinated by Xia Han's laughter, and he was so happy that he went back to change his clothes.
The boss glared at Xia Han with a gloomy face, turned around and went downstairs, "When you go to the kitchen, help me tell the dumb girl, you don't have to cook for me." After saying that, he went out with two jugs of wine.
Xia Han looked at her gaze and put away his smile, snapped his fingers, and after a while, a human figure appeared in a dark place in the back room. If it weren't for the shadows on the ground, you wouldn't be able to see or feel any breath.
"Secretly protecting her."
"Master, Mr. Xia Xue will let you go back first, after all, this is the realm of Dongwu." The man in black admonished, but he couldn't stop sweating on his forehead, he didn't dare to think that Xia Han, who was smiling at the woman just now, was like this in his nature, and he would be gentle with everyone.
The cold king who makes people feel frightened is not in vain.
Xia Han lowered his eyes, glanced at him, and said lightly, "Don't let me say it a second time." ”
If it weren't for the force, the man in black would be afraid that his legs would tremble, and he wouldn't dare to say more, so he would have followed.
Xia Han retracted his gaze and glanced at the blue water river outside the window, his body was cold, thinking of her sullen appearance just now, but she couldn't help but evoke a smile, overflowing with tenderness.
The boss went to the grocery store after coming out of the building, and before he entered the door, he shouted Lao Qi to drink.
Lao Qi smelled the smell of wine and came out, took it very attentively, welcomed her into the house with a smile, and asked his wife to cook a few side dishes.
After three rounds of drinking, Lao Qi smashed his mouth and looked at her strangely, "I heard that there is a beautiful man in your building?" ”
The boss glanced at him, sighed and said, "Sure enough, it's a good thing not to go out, and evil things to go a thousand miles!" ”
"Come on, you, women and children of your age are rolling all over the ground, you are still a lonely one, and you plan to go back to the building for the rest of your life?"
"You also know that I won't live to be twenty, how can I delay the good years of the people." The boss looked at Lao Qi's daughter-in-law and smiled, "Auntie, your cooking skills are about to catch up with my dumb girl, Lao Qi is really blessed." ”
"Hey, I've been doing it for so many years and can barely get in, what is blessed or not, I can find your old Uncle Qi, it's blessed." Old Aunt Qi smiled modestly, and silently took Uncle Qi's wine to burn it again.
The boss pursed his lips and smiled, "If I have a chance in my next life, I hope to be as harmonious as you and Uncle Qi, and live a life with the person I love without being dull." ”
Aunt Qi knows the boss's illness, and she can't help but feel distressed when she is so relieved, in the next life, who can say for sure. (To be continued.) )
