My dad was stunned when he saw me, and he stood there for a long time without reacting.

It was Widow Zhang, who took the lead in laughing softly and asked me, "Why is Xiao Jiang so well-behaved, she still comes out to work in the summer, can she give you five yuan a day?" ”

Seeing that they had misunderstood, I didn't say anything, so I smiled and asked them to sit down.

Zhang Qiongyu's eyes were red because of what happened before, so when she saw me today, she didn't pretend to be intimate, but sat coldly next to my father.

My dad was a little uncomfortable and beckoned me to sit down.

"Dad, I'm greeting guests, I'll bring you whatever you want to drink." I said with a light smile.

"I want milk tea and more pearls." Zhang Qiongyu said coldly, and glared at me, quite a feeling of raising her eyebrows.

I was stunned, I didn't understand what she was talking about.

In an instant, she wanted to drink milk tea in front of my stall, but she didn't dare to go, and she sent my dad over, but my dad didn't get it for free, and finally paid a dollar to buy a cup.

Zhang Qiongyu probably thinks that there is finally another place in this small town that sells milk tea, and there is no need to drink my family.

And I'm still the one who serves, and she enjoys the service.

So let's raise my eyebrows.

"What else to order?" I asked with a disappreciative smile.

My dad coughed, "Two more bowls of ice ......."

"We don't want it." Widow Zhang suddenly made a color to my father, and then said to me with a smile, "There is actually not much money at home, if it weren't for the sign outside, we wouldn't have come." ”

This is for fear that if I think their family has money, I will ask for money again, and I would rather not eat than pretend to be poor.

I smiled disdainfully and didn't dismantle them.

In fact, I knew in my heart that yesterday was the day my dad received his salary.

I also know that my father's salary of more than 400 yuan a month is considered rich in this small area.

But I didn't say anything, just quietly looked at Widow Zhang and the paper bags with clothes behind her.

At this time, Shen Bi walked in from the door between the lattice shop and the bubble tea shop, and was stunned when she saw my father.

I tugged at her sleeve and told her to greet her classmates.

Shen Bi opened her mouth, glared at my dad in that direction with some resentment, and finally lowered her head and passed.

"Ah, both of you sisters have come to work, this boss is so good, and at the same time accept you two sisters." Widow Zhang looked at Shen Bi in surprise, her eyes flashing with a strange light.

I smiled, ignored her, turned around and went to the kitchen, asked my mother for a cup of milk tea who was busy with her head down, and sent it over.

Zhang Qiongyu was probably too hot to drink a cup of iced milk tea in three or two sips, but she didn't leave in a hurry, but sat comfortably on the chair, squinting at the decoration of the store.

"Let's have another drink." My dad looked at Zhang Qiongyu distressedly, turned his head and shouted to me, "Come on, it's the same as just now, I see that Qiongyu loves pearls." ”

"A dollar." I walked up to me and smiled.

My dad took a dollar out of his arms and handed it to me.

I put away the money and was about to go back to the counter, when my dad suddenly pulled me and said hesitantly, "Xiaojiang, can you have a drink with Xiaobi too?" ”

As he spoke, he took out two dollars and asked for me.

I was surprised, stared at him, and didn't speak.

Widow Zhang next to her coughed a little unnaturally, and my dad was stunned, and his hand holding the two yuan was frozen in the air.

"Guozheng, are you stupid?" Widow Zhang glanced at my father with some hatred, and then smiled at me, "Xiao Jiang and Xiao Bi are employees in the store, they can't drink as much as they want, and they need you to give money?" You said it was not Xiaojiang. ”

My dad suddenly realized and stuffed the two dollars he had just taken out back into his pocket.

Widow Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

I raised the corners of my mouth coldly, didn't bother to pay attention to them, turned around and took a cup of milk tea, and handed it to Zhang Qiongyu.

When I passed by Fang Qisheng's side, I saw that he was about to finish eating ice porridge, and I added a cup of milk tea to him.

"That's enough." Fang Qisheng smiled gently at me, "A piece of ice porridge is almost over." ”

"It's okay, you were invited by me, and this milk tea is also free of charge." I said with a light smile.

Fang Qisheng seemed a little embarrassed, his lips opened slightly, and just about to say something more, Widow Zhang on the side hurriedly stood up and walked to me.

"Xiao Jiang, why didn't you say it earlier, there is more than one free order, come on, bring me and your father two bowls of ice porridge, I've always wanted to try it." Widow Zhang warmly took my hand.

I jerked back, put my hands behind my back, and said apologetically, "Sorry, Aunt Zhang, we only have the first free order in the store." ”

"What?" Widow Zhang looked surprised, pointed at Fang Qisheng and said, "But he has two copies, and you also said that it was free of charge." ”

"Because he's a guest I've invited." I said calmly.

"The guest you invited?" Widow Zhang frowned, and after a while, she smiled and rubbed to my side, "He is a guest you invited, but is it still your own father, I thought that it was not easy for you to work, but I didn't expect you to have a lot of power, and you sold this ice porridge recipe to this boss, right?" In this case, it shouldn't be a big deal to give your dad two more bowls of ice porridge. ”

After speaking, he turned his head and said with a smile, "This big girl in our family is very filial, are you right?" ”

Is this to oppress me with the word filial piety?

If I don't give my dad free ice porridge, is it not filial?

I frowned slightly, looked at Widow Zhang fixedly for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "Aunt Zhang, the rules are unbreakable, and it is not easy for us to open a new store, if Aunt Zhang wants to sit, she can sit in the store for a while, if she doesn't want to sit, she can leave." ”

"You ......" Widow Zhang didn't expect me to be so tough, her face darkened, but she still endured it without tearing her face, smiled at me reluctantly, and returned to her seat.

After a while, my tablemate Su Wen pushed open the door and walked over, and when she saw me, she smiled, "Your shop is really good, it is very stylish, I feel that no one in the county will surpass it in three or five years." You're in good taste. ”

"Thanks for the compliment, what do you want to do?" I smiled and greeted her.

Widow Zhang, who was holding her ears on the side, was a little stunned, lowered her head and touched the milk tea in Zhang Qiongyu's hand, and then looked at the ice porridge that others were eating, and finally stood up suddenly, and walked to the open kitchen in three steps and two steps.

My mom just looked up, and she saw the side face.

Widow Zhang's face suddenly realized, and her gaze gradually changed when she looked at me.

But she didn't say anything, but while looking at the decoration of the shop, she returned to her seat and pulled my dad to bite his ear.

I saw with my peripheral vision that Zhang Qiongyu, who was biting the straw comfortably, slowly stiffened her movements.

After a few moments, my dad started calling me.

I asked Shen Bi to bring Su Wen a cup of milk tea, and walked up to my dad by myself, "Dad, what's the matter?" ”

"You opened this shop?" My dad asked with a gloomy face.

"yes." I don't think there's anything to hide about this, they misunderstood it before, I didn't explain it, they knew, and I didn't hide it.

Because sooner or later it will be exposed, and there is no point in covering it up.

"How much did it cost?" My father's face darkened, carefully looked at the surrounding decoration, and said angrily, "Look at this decoration, as well as the rental fee, have you spent all the money?" ”

"It's our family's business, Dad." I looked at him calmly, trying to remind him that the money belonged to my mother and had nothing to do with him.

My dad was stunned, and after a while, he said with some annoyance, "Then I'm also your dad, you have my blood in your body, why don't you notify me of this kind of thing." ”

"What did you inform?" I was a little amused, "Before, you just thought I was a part-time worker in the shop, so you thought that I would give you a free order, but now if you know that I opened the shop, you can't eat us?" ”

"You! Shen Jiang! My dad shouted angrily, his face darkened, "I'm in your heart, am I that kind of person?" ”

"Isn't it?" I tilted my head and asked him mischievously.

My dad's angry chest rose and fell, panting for breath.

Widow Zhang hurriedly patted my dad's chest, turned her head, and counted me down helplessly, "You said you, Xiao Jiang, no matter how you say this is also your dad, you should care about you, why are you so strong, you just don't want to accept your dad's care, and you are still working against your dad, even if you are an adolescent rebel, you can't hurt people's hearts like this." ”

The more she spoke, the more she spoke, and the louder she got in the back, attracting the attention of the whole store.

Widow Zhang raised her head proudly, and without waiting for me to speak, she said earnestly, "Xiao Jiang, hurry up and apologize to your father, and I will persuade your father again, even if this matter is revealed, okay." ”

I lowered my head, pondered for a moment, raised my head, and looked at my dad, "I answered your question, the money is all spent, and the family has no savings, are you satisfied?" ”

When my dad heard this, he panted even more, "You...... You loser......"

"Dad, I'm just opening a shop, why am I a loser." I looked at him with a smile, "Everyone has their own ambitions, some people like to save money for interest, some people like to use it to start a business, if I use your money, you should be angry, but you have divorced my mother, all the money is my mother's, my mother is not angry, why are you in such a hurry, are you afraid that we will have no money, and ask you for money to spend?" ”

My dad seemed to be poked in the heart by me, and when he slapped the table in a hurry, he was about to stand up and reason with me, but he was forced to press down by Widow Zhang.

I smiled weirdly, and without waiting for my dad to continue to be mad, I continued, "Dad, you are my own dad, I have your blood in my body, and now the family's money is on this store, my sister and I will not be able to eat, dear dad, can I do it with your support?" ”
