Chapter 10: Heart-to-Heart Talk
Xiao Zhe seemed to have finally been summoned back to his senses by the shopkeeper, he turned his head to look at Wang Xun, and then glanced at the shopkeeper again.
The shopkeeper immediately smiled and urged Wang Xun, "Put it on quickly." ”
Wang Xun brought out five or six exquisite dishes from the food box, and they were still steaming.
The shopkeeper personally served Xiao Zhe a bowl of rice, Xiao Zhe came over and sat down at the table, and looked at the dishes on the table, "Why did you order so much, even so, the two of you also sit down and eat with me." ”
Hearing this, Wang Xun was even more flattered, he glanced at the shopkeeper with clever eyes, and the shopkeeper glanced at him, Wang Xun took two more bowls to serve their own meals, and sat down with the shopkeeper to eat together.
Xiao Zhe took a bite of the perch in front of him, and suddenly asked, "Liu Da, the guy next to you has been working in the teahouse for a few years." ”
Wang Xun was holding the dishes in a restrained manner, burying his head in the rice, and he didn't dare to look up at the owner at all, but he suddenly heard the owner ask him, and his whole body was stiff.
The shopkeeper kicked Wang Xun under the table, "Boss, don't look at this kid is the same as a quail now, in fact, he has a lot of words, let him say it himself." ”
Although Wang Xun was nervous, he also understood that he should seize the opportunity to show his face in front of the owner at this time, so he hurriedly introduced himself quickly.
Xiao Zhe took a sip of soup, "What about the family?" How alone in Matsue Castle. ”
"The little one's father took the little one to Matsue Castle and died, and the little one saw that Matsue Castle was better than the village, so he stayed. Although the little life is not good, and he lost his father early, but now he lives in a good place, they are all good people, and everyone can take care of each other. Xu Wang Xun didn't want his background to sound too pitiful, so he added such a sentence.
There were no bad people in the court. But it's not as good as Wang Xun said, everyone goes out early and returns late for their livelihood. I don't have much time to meet on weekdays, and when I do, it's just a nodding acquaintance.
But Wang Xun remembered Lou Zheng who invited him to eat steamed buns this morning and chatted happily with him, and he felt that his words were not false, and there were indeed people in the hospital who took care of him.
"Oh? Who live in your hospital? ”
As soon as Xiao Zhe asked, Wang Xun naturally knew everything, although Lou Zheng only moved in yesterday, but because Wang Xun had the best impression of her, he thought that the two had similar backgrounds. Just talk a few more words about Lou Zheng.
"You kid. How can you boast about people, I haven't seen you talk about this young man on weekdays. ”
"Shopkeeper Liu, Ah Zheng just moved here." Wang Xun was a little embarrassed to explain.
"A kid who just moved in deserves such a compliment from you. It can be seen that this kid is a good person. What does it do? ”
Xu is talking about Lou Zheng. Wang Xun was not so nervous even when talking to the owner who always liked to have a cold face on weekdays, and he smiled innocently, "Ah Zheng is a buddy in the Xinglin Pavilion in the West Market." I know a lot of medicinal herbs, and I can see a doctor, which is much better than me. ”
The shopkeeper laughed at him, he regarded Lou Zheng as a younger brother.
"Ah Zheng is younger than me, but he's not a younger brother."
Xiao Zhe was a little distracted for a while because of Wang Xun's words, but he soon came back to his senses.
After dinner, the shopkeeper sent the account book of Wanjing Tea House to Xiao Zhe, and retired with Wang Xun.
Xiao Zhe sat by the window, opened the account book, half an hour passed without turning a page, he suddenly closed the account book, and called a young man dressed as a small servant.
"Xiao Yu."
"What is the young master looking for Xiao Yu?"
Xiao Zhe's slightly raised fist on the desk suddenly clenched nervously, "How about the person who got your attention?" ”
Xiao Yu's voice is naturally rough and very recognizable, but his face is very ordinary, the kind that can't be distinguished when thrown into the pile, people with this kind of appearance are naturally suitable for intelligence work.
"Back to the young master, the young man came to the teahouse at three o'clock in the afternoon, sat with his companion for most of the hour, and left the Xinglin Pavilion where he returned from time to time."
Xiao Zhe waved at him, "You don't have to star, go down and rest." ”
Xiao Zhe sat quietly at the table, his expression was cold, his phoenix eyes were narrow and deep, and he couldn't see it at a glance.
According to what Xiao Yu said, what happened in the lobby of Wanjing Tea House at noon today, Lou Zheng must have seen it clearly.
Will she come to save herself?
Xiao Zhe's heart was unprecedentedly nervous and expectant.
Fortunately, Lou Zheng and Tian Qi returned to the Xinglin Pavilion in the afternoon, otherwise they would not have been able to keep themselves busy just by relying on Dr. Xie and Shopkeeper Liu.
At the turn of autumn and winter, the hospital received many patients suffering from wind chills and wind, and was busy until it was dark before sending the last patient away.
Lou Zheng helped Dr. Xie tidy up the backyard consultation room, Dr. Xie is old, and he also has the problem of old cold legs, and he is also tired at the end of the day in the hospital. Fortunately, Lou Zheng is a skilled hand, and today she has the errand help of coming and going, which saves Dr. Xie a lot of trouble.
Seeing that Dr. Xie was sitting at the table and cleaning up the medicine box, Lou Zheng walked up to him, "Dr. Xie should go back early, I live close to the medical hall, and I will do the rest." ”
It will be half an hour for Dr. Xie to rush back, he is old, and it is not safe to walk at night.
At this time, Shopkeeper Liu and Tian Qi also came in.
"Doctor Xie, I'll ask Tian Qi to drive you back, and I'll leave it all here for Ah Zheng to clean up."
Doctor Xie was really not very happy, he didn't insist, he told Lou Zheng a few words, and followed Tian Qi out to take the carriage.
By the time Lou Zheng and Shopkeeper Liu closed the door of the medical hall and came out, it was already completely dark.
On the streets, lanterns were hung in front of every house.
After saying hello to Shopkeeper Liu, Lou Zheng walked towards the small courtyard where he lived.
In the middle of the afternoon, Lou Zheng was busy without a quarter of an hour's rest, and he felt a little tired, so he went back and didn't want to cook anymore. Before going out in the morning, I heard Wang Xun say that there was a snack shop across the street from the small courtyard where they lived, and the wontons in it were delicious and affordable.
The signboard of Sun Kee's restaurant is very recognizable, at this time, except for the restaurant inn, most of the shops are closed, only Sun Kee's shop is open on the street, there is a stove boiling hot water at the door, steaming white, several lamps are lit in the shop, and a few half-old but clean tables and stools are placed.
There is no one in this shop, and the brothers who opened the shop are sitting at a table at the door eating, and there is only one table in which there are people, and they can't see clearly when they are blocked by Sun Ji's brothers.
At this time, it was already very cold at night in Songjiang City, and all the breath was white air, Lou Zheng rubbed his hands and walked briskly towards Sun Ji's restaurant.
Seeing that a guest came to the door, Sun Da put down the dishes and chopsticks, and asked enthusiastically, "Little brother, what do you want to eat?" We have lo mein, dumplings, and wontons in our shop, which are cheap and sufficient, and there are also home-made braised vegetables, which are only five cents and one plate. ”
Lou Zheng only had a few dozen dollars left, but he didn't dare to spend it indiscriminately, so he only ordered a bowl of wonton. (To be continued......)
