Chapter 200: Crisis
There has to be a risk in everything, if you are afraid that the partner will cheat in the future, then all men and women don't need to get married.
Hong Cheng felt that it was not that Xiangqin was not confident, but that Xiangqin's trust in him was not enough.
He believed that Parsley had feelings for him, and if she didn't have feelings, Parsley wouldn't be so afraid of losing him.
The two sat side by side on the edge of the embankment, with an ink-like scene at their feet.
The grass is green, the river flows eastward, and occasionally colorful butterflies pass by. On the other side of the river, a group of babies chased and frolicked around a few grassy goats, and one of the older boys waved a long whip in his hand, which crackled like a firecracker, and the sound wafted over the riverbank.
Hong Cheng plucked a green grass on the spot and put it in his mouth, and looked at the children playing happily opposite, he couldn't imagine how Xiangqin lived in the Li family when she was as old as those children.
He suddenly spoke, and his voice was serious, "Xiangqin, I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances and injuries in the Li family, and you are afraid that you will also be injured if you leave me here, so you will protect yourself-"
Parsley listened quietly, also thinking and pondering what he said.
It's something too esoteric, she doesn't understand.
But she knew that she was really afraid of being hurt, as long as she thought of Hong Cheng who would betray her and leave her one day, Xiangqin trembled all over, chilled all over, and fiercely cut off such an assumption, unwilling to think about it again......
Hong Cheng suddenly laughed, "According to that, you are not a sixteen-year-old girl now. You're in your twenties now. ”
Parsley was a little embarrassed and pulled the strands of hair that hung down on her face behind her ears.
From the age of 20 to the age of 15, life changed dramatically. Parsley couldn't get her hands on it, and she still felt at a loss.
But Xiangqin thinks that the biggest change is her heart.
Before she was reborn, her fate was manipulated.
After being born again, her fate is up to her.
Parsley's life is like a butterfly change.
She looked at the butterflies flying away. The mood is much more relaxed, as if a heavy burden has been unloaded. Relaxed, like a fish in the water, like a bird flying in the sky.
In a trance, Xiangqin remembered an incident, which was related to Hong Cheng's hotel, and she couldn't help but look solemn. Thinking about it, it would be better to remind Hong Cheng, "You have to be careful in the past few years, it seems that something is going to happen to your hotel." ”
"What's the matter?" Hong Cheng was confused.
This really asked Parsley, and she frowned, her arms clasped around her knees.
After pondering for a while, Parsley shook her head weakly, "I don't know, it seems to be quite strict." I hadn't been to your hotel yet, when I did. Your hotel has started to get better, and I heard that it was your father who borrowed loan sharks to support the whole hotel. ”
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Hong Cheng complained a little, if he had known. I have long been mentally prepared.
"What did I tell you?" Xiangqin was not angry, she had bitter words in her heart, and she didn't know how to talk to Hong Cheng at all. "Whoever tells me about this kind of thing, no one will believe it, and maybe they will treat me as a monster and set up firewood. A fire burned me! ”
"I believe it, I believe it-" Even if it is fake, Hong Cheng is willing to fall for it. He took Parsley into his arms, but was torn away by Parsley.
Parsley blushed and looked across the river, "What are you doing, so many children are watching!" ”
Since he can't take advantage of a big advantage, Hong Cheng also knows how to take advantage of a small advantage. He held Parsley's hand and rubbed her palms and the back of her hands, "Let's just know about this, don't tell anyone else, I won't spread it." ”
Xiangqin knew that Hong Cheng was protecting her, she was very moved, and she always wanted to repay him, but she couldn't think of doing something for him.
Parsley nodded silently, with tears in her eyes.
"Let's go, let's go back, and talk slowly about something in the evening."
The knot between the two was untied, and Xiangqin felt a lot more relieved, at least when facing Hong Cheng, she would no longer feel pressured because she had hidden something from him as before.
Seeing that the two were reconciled, Hong Fu was happy in his heart. It was common for young people to make noise together, and his worries were unnecessary.
But someone is unhappy, and that is Tang Sha.
As long as she sees parsley, she is not angry, and she is not in a good mood at any time.
Hong Fu made a table of dishes, and sat down with a few young people to eat and drink together, and the topics were all around the "Hope Restaurant" and the family surnamed Tian.
Hongfu and Lao Tian have two shops, one on this side of the street and the other on the other side of the street, which can be regarded as door to door and signboard to signboard, and they also have some understanding of each other.
After hearing Duan Xiang say that Lao Tian wanted "thirty-five thousand" in one bite, Hong Fu couldn't help but be taken aback, "Lao Tian is really embarrassed to open this mouth!" ”
Hong Cheng echoed, "He thought his house was a brick factory!" ”
The brick and tile factory run by Duan Jiang, such a big place, does not cost 30,000 yuan, and a small "hope restaurant" can still be expensive to the head of the brick and tile factory?
"I guess Lao Tian sees that you two are young and wants to get you!" If Lao Tian really had such thoughts, Hong Fudu felt ashamed of him, "It's a shame that his son is still a law student." ”
Hong Cheng continued: "I don't think that Xiao Tian is good, he also studied law, he graduated for so long, and he doesn't even have a decent job until now, he seems to have been helping Lao Tian in that restaurant."
Duan Xiang drank a little too much wine, and his face was red at this time.
He wiped his mouth and said drunkly: "They seem to have a little son in their family, right, I saw him when I came that day, it seems that he is about to graduate from elementary school and is about to enter junior high school."
Hong Fu nodded, "Yes, Lao Tian wants to save face very much, and often brags to his relatives and friends, saying that he wants to use that restaurant to send his youngest son to college." ”
Parsley quietly digested this information, and suddenly felt that Lao Tian's family also had pity that made people feel pity.
The restaurant supported by Lao Tian is afraid that it will not be able to make ends meet for a long time.
Supporting that restaurant is probably more tiring than feeding your family.
Hong Cheng probably drank his head too, and scolded Duan Xiang, "Mother, you want to open a store, it's not good to choose where to choose, but choose the opposite door in our house, you are deliberate!" ”
Duan Xiang didn't laugh angrily, but said defiantly: "What's the matter, are you afraid?"
Hong Fu rolled his eyes at him in disdain.
However, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, Parsley had said before that their hotel would face a big crisis, and this crisis should be one more competitor......
After eating, Hong Fu gave Ermao and Duan Hao a day off, firstly, thinking that they had not gone home for a while, let them go home to have a look, and secondly, he sent back Duan Xiang, who had drunk and walked unsteadily.
Xiangqin is naturally leaving, and the matter with Lao Tian has not been settled, and she has to go back to her own business.
Hong Cheng wanted to follow her and go to her, but Xiangqin disagreed.
Xiangqin said to Duan Hao and them: "You wait for me for a while, and I'll say a few words to Hong Cheng." She dragged Hong Cheng to a place to avoid people's eyes, still looking cautious, "Don't forget what I told you." ”
"What's the matter?" Hong Cheng was confused, he told Xiangqin about the matter, isn't it equivalent to reconciliation, is it possible that Xiangqin regrets it?
Thinking of this, Hong Cheng couldn't help but get nervous.
Parsley continued to remind him, "Didn't I tell you about your hotel, you forgot about it so quickly!" ”
Hong Cheng's expression became more and more solemn.
Naturally, he didn't forget it, and even this incident was like a screw stuck in his heart, making him unable to live in peace.
Parsley said again, "You better stay here and help your father stay in the store."
"What if something happens to you?" Hong Cheng is worried about his hotel, and at the same time, he is not worried about Xiangqin's side.
He was mainly afraid of those people in Lijia Village, for fear that they would entangle Xiangqin again.
Xiangqin somewhat understood his thoughts, but she didn't care, "My stall is small, and if someone smashes it, it will be smashed by someone, and I won't lose much." You'd better pay more attention to what's going on here. ”
Hong Cheng hesitated, thinking of the exchange between Xiangqin and Duan Xiangzheng and Lao Tian's family, he felt a little relieved.
If Xiangqin and Duan Xiang really take the "Hope Restaurant" as something in their pockets, then they will be the right person and can be neighbors, right?
That's a great thing!
Hong Cheng's mood became happy, and he nodded at Xiangqin, "I know, then you can go back first." ”
The father and son of the Hong family watched Xiangqin and them leave, Hong Fu looked strange, squinting at Hong Cheng, who was reluctant to give up on Xiangqin, "Why don't you go with your little object?" ”
"When they take down the restaurant opposite, are they still worried that they won't see each other in the future?"
"When did you think so far ahead!"
Hong Cheng sneered, complaining in his heart that this old guy had no eyes and didn't understand his filial piety. He left Parsley and stayed here, it was all for the good of the whole family.
Hong Fu glanced at the "Hope Restaurant", his face changed suddenly, and he pondered one thing, "If you take that restaurant, if the money is evenly distributed on the heads of Xiangzi and Xiangqin, it will cost five or six thousand, can Xiangqin come up with so much money?" ”
"I can't." Hong Cheng is so sure because he knows Xiangqin's family background, after all, he runs to the bank every time to deposit money for Xiangqin.
This was also expected by Hong Fu, and he was not surprised, "If she can't take it out, you can add some to her." ”
Of course, Hong Cheng thought the same thing, but he knew that Parsley would definitely not use his money.
He grabbed his hair and said vaguely: "Let's talk about it then, wait until they talk to Lao Tian."
The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, and you really can't be in a hurry.
Hong Fu glanced deeply in the direction of "Hope Restaurant" again, he knew what Cheng Cheng Lao Tian had come to when he picked the door, "The restaurant is in tatters like that, and Lao Tian doesn't say that he will pick it up again, and he can't complain that the business is not good."
