Anyway, Zou Youheng is thick-skinned, so she doesn't have to be too restrained.

"Tsk, what are you talking about? Everyone has a love for beauty, and I know how to appreciate it. ”

Zou Youheng's face was full of grievances, and sure enough, Ye Xiaoyu heard the sound in the alley that day.

It's not that he forced those girls to voluntarily send them to the door and deliver meat to their mouths, can he blame him? And the most important thing is that those girls are not coming to him, he is just helping others to cover.

"I can't kill you by drinking!!"

Ye Xiaoyu angrily put the brewed milk tea in front of Zou Youheng and glared at him fiercely. She originally wanted to smash the cup in front of Zou Youheng, but she wanted the cup to be her own, and it would not be good if it broke, so she gave up.

"I said—"

Taking a big sip of hot milk tea, Zou Youheng looked up at Ye Xiaoyu with a little amusement.

"You care so much about everything, are you a man or a woman?"

Forehead......

Ye Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment.

Is this because women have seen a lot, so their eyes have become particularly sharp?

"It doesn't matter if I'm a man or a woman, you don't have the money to eat the overlord meal and dare to be so arrogant?!!"

"Hey, I'm not curious, you cook delicious things, your mouth is smooth, and you are still careful about things, and you look feminine...... Not manly at all. ”

Picking up the cake on the plate and taking a big bite, Zou Youheng said again.

Ye Xiaoyu was about to refute, but other guests came to the shop. She threw down Zou Youheng, who was full of squandering, and hurriedly went to greet him.

In fact, Ye Xiaoyu's original intention of wearing men's clothes was just for the convenience of movement, and she never thought of hiding her identity as a woman. But who would have thought that after coming to Rongzhou, everyone would mistake her for a man, thinking that it was not a big deal, and she didn't bother to explain. But after a long time, Ye Xiaoyu has become accustomed to being treated as a man, and now when Zou Youheng says this, it seems that some secret in his heart has been pierced, and there is an inexplicable unpleasant taste.

"Why, this pastry...... Oh cake. It's delicious. No wonder Erniang likes it so much. Boss Ye, if you are a woman, then I will marry you home and make it for me. ”

Seeing the guests leave, Zou Youheng began to speak freely again.

"Eat so sweet. Beware of diabetes!! ”

Hold the empty plates on the table. Ye Xiaoyu said angrily.

Fuck. Even if she is a woman, she will never marry this hanger, although it seems to be quite good to marry into a wealthy family. But if the other party is Zou Youheng, then forget it.

"Sugar ...... What disease? ”

Zou Youheng couldn't understand what Ye Xiaoyu was saying, he had never heard this word.

"Forget it if you don't hear it clearly, I mean you, Mr. Zou, are you afraid that no one will make you pastries to eat?"

Forgetting that "diabetes" is a modern term, Ye Xiaoyu blurted out directly just now.

"There must be people, but there is nothing as delicious and special as yours."

Zou Youheng said matter-of-factly.

"However, if you're a man, there's nothing to say......"

"Okay, if you have something free to eat, just eat it quickly, don't say anything about what you don't have."

The shop was very busy, and Ye Xiaoyu was too lazy to waste time with this idler.

"Oh, by the way, are you free on February 2nd?"

After eating the last bite of the cake, Zou Youheng looked at Ye Xiaoyu and asked, a rare seriousness.

February 2nd?

Isn't that next year?

Now ask about next year, who knows if you will be free at that time?

"Not available."

Ye Xiaoyu replied bluntly, as long as the shop is open, she will not have free time.

"For the sake of your shop's business, you must make time for it."

Zou Youheng said.

"On that day, the dignitaries and nobles in the city will go to the suburbs to go to the spring, especially the official ladies, you will go when the time comes, bring more delicious pastries, if it meets the taste of these ladies, then I am afraid that the shop will have no business in the future?"

Except for the meekness he pretended to be before, Ye Xiaoyu basically never saw Zou Youheng so seriously.

"You said that they are all high-ranking officials and nobles, and when the time comes, for the safety of these people, they will definitely send people to guard them, ordinary people like me, not to mention selling things, it is impossible to even go in."

Zou Youheng's idea is good, but the feasibility is basically zero.

"I'm here, you can just go in with me then. Foolish! ”

"What are your intentions?"

Ye Xiaoyu didn't believe that the gentleman in front of him would help him for no reason.

"Attempt?"

Hearing this, Zou Youheng couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, revealing two good-looking pear vortices.

"What else can you try for me but pastries? If it's a woman, it's ......."

"Anyway, I don't think you are such a kind person."

If Wang Huaiqing said this, Ye Xiaoyu would still believe it, but Zou Youheng? Every word he spoke, Ye Xiaoyu had to put a big question mark in his heart first.

"Okay, it's not early, I'll go back first, you just need to remember February 2nd, and I'll contact you." And-"

The sky outside began to darken, and Zou Youheng, who had spent half a day in the shop, finally stood up, walked out as he spoke, and when he reached the door, he turned his head to look at Ye Xiaoyu with a face full of chicken thieves.

"The family is very busy during the Chinese New Year, so I won't come to you, don't miss me too much."

"Miss you!! ――”

Staring at the back that disappeared into the crowd, Ye Xiaoyu yelled angrily.

It's almost the Chinese New Year, but Wang Huaiqing seems to have disappeared, and Ye Xiaoyu remembered that the last time they met was more than two months ago, that is, the time they accompanied her through the alley in front of the Zou Mansion.

Thinking that Wang Huaiqing was good to him, Ye Xiaoyu had been struggling with whether to send some gifts to the Wang family, but when she thought of Lin's face, she instantly dispelled this idea.

The Lin family is so wonderful, and Wang Huaiqing may still be angry about his words that day, Ye Xiaoyu thought about it again and again, and still stopped contacting the Wang family.

The closer you get to the Chinese New Year's Eve, the lighter the business of the shop becomes, because after the trend of buying New Year's goods, everyone stays at home to prepare all kinds of things for the New Year, and there are many fewer pedestrians on the street, let alone customers in the shop.

A large number of shops on West Street have been closed, only some restaurants are still open, and after being busy for so long, Ye Xiaoyu also planned to take advantage of the time when there was no business to rest, so he also closed the shop on the 28th of the lunar month.

After saying goodbye to the continuous busy days, Ye Xiaoyu, who was instantly idle, didn't know what else she should do except sleep until she woke up naturally every morning.

In the first year of Rongzhou, staying alone in the room, Ye Xiaoyu felt for a moment that she had returned to the days of her previous life, or rather, in fact, she did not fall into the water at all, nor was she reborn, all of this was a dream, and when she opened her eyes again, she would find that she was still lying on the single bed in the apartment on the twentieth floor.

When she first came, she planned to send a letter to Lujiazhuang to report their safety or something, but she was busy and completely put this matter behind her, and now it is the New Year, and even if she writes a letter, no one will help her send it to Quanxiu Village. Write a letter back to report safety, or delay it until the beginning of spring next year, anyway, so long has passed, if Lu Qian and they were worried, they would have been worried a long time ago, and it is estimated that by now, the worried mood has calmed down. Ye Xiaoyu felt that since she had come out, she didn't need to go back to disturb them, after all, Jiang Ping's words were still in her ears even if she thought about them now.

Lying on the floor alone, opening his eyes and feeling the sunlight from the wooden lattice window, without the harassment of others and the red tape of getting along with others, Ye Xiaoyu felt inexplicably comfortable and free, of course, it would be better if there was a mobile phone at hand or a computer in the room.

I woke up, I woke up, and I don't know how long it was, Ye Xiaoyu was suddenly woken up by an urgent knock on the door.

"Little Fish—"

He opened his eyes with a look of chagrin and found that the voice was a little familiar.

Nima, do you know what day it is?!!!

Knocking on someone's house on the 29th day of the new year, what is it?

But the knocking continued, and the sound grew more and more nervous. It sounded like he was afraid that Ye Xiaoyu would die alone in this shop.

"It's coming, it's coming—"

Reluctantly responded, Ye Xiaoyu got up from the ground wrapped in thick clothes, and then quickly dressed and tied her hair. said that it is a bunk on the ground, but it is actually a small bed that can be disassembled, otherwise, if it is really spread on the ground like summer, it is strange that the cold weather in Rongzhou City in winter is not frozen.

"Huaiqing?"

opened a small door, Ye Xiaoyu poked her head out and found Wang Huaiqing standing at the door with an anxious face.

"Xiaoyu, have you already slept? Why do I call so many times and there is no answer? ”

As soon as he saw Ye Xiaoyu, the faces of the people outside the door softened slightly, but their eyes were still full of anxiety.

"Hmm...... You just fell asleep, you? ……”

Finding that it was Wang Huaiqing, Ye Xiaoyu moved down and let him come in from the outside. Because he hadn't seen him for too long, and his mind was confused because he had just woken up, Ye Xiaoyu didn't know what to say for a while.

"Me?"

Obviously, Wang Huaiqing, like Ye Xiaoyu, didn't know how to say the first sentence.

"Yue, missing ......"

After a pause, he spoke again, but Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to hear this sentence.

*

On the streets of Rongzhou on the 29th day of the Lunar New Year, there are basically no pedestrians, and occasionally I meet one or two, and they are all in a hurry to go home for the New Year.

Ye Xiaoyu and Wang Huaiqing were walking on the street, and suddenly felt a little aimless.

Wang Yue'e has been missing for ten days, but it wasn't until today that the Li family sent someone to tell the Lin family about it. The Lin family was busy with the New Year's affairs, but they didn't pay too much attention to it, but they were anxious for Wang Huaiqing, who happened to hear their conversation on the side.
