Chapter 8: Listen to Me
Yan Yi is also terrible when he is stubborn, and sure enough, he did what he said, Lai had dinner at Song Lingyue's house, and he had no intention of leaving, Song Lingyue went to the hospital to see Rong's mother, and he also followed behind, looking like he was determined by her, Song Lingyue couldn't drive away, so he had to let him follow, anyway, he wouldn't be bad.
Rong's mother stayed in the hospital for a few days, her cough improved a lot, and she was sick like a thread, plus she was also old, and after an illness, her body and bones were not as good as before, Song Lingyue did not allow her to take over the work of washing clothes again, only let her raise her at home, at most she was allowed to cook, and she was not allowed to be too tired.
Rong's mother was discharged from the hospital, Song Lingyue also had enough time to find a new job, Yan Yi followed for a few days, Song Lingyue no longer avoided and rejected him, he was relieved, and went back to the bank to work as usual, but he still had to come over in the morning and evening, and refused to leave until midnight.
Song Lingyue didn't take on the laundry and sewing work, she originally wanted to go to the school to apply for a teaching position, but she had no experience and no recommenders, the school refused to hire, so she could only follow her neighbors to do odd jobs.
Early this morning, after Yan Yi left, several eldest sisters in the neighborhood came to call Song Lingyue again, and wanted to take her to do odd jobs for a large family, the young master of this family wanted to marry, and there were not enough servants in the family, so she had to hire a few temporarily, with a good salary, and red envelopes to receive, such a good errand, Song Lingyue naturally would not refuse and followed.
This big family naturally does not live in the suburbs of Beijing, but lives in the city, and Song Lingyue followed a few people to get up early and walk for most of the day before rushing to someone's house.
After a busy morning, seeing that the wedding was about to be held, and the people who came to congratulate had arrived, Song Lingyue knew how to read, and the housekeeper instructed her to follow a few servants to receive the congratulatory gifts behind, and by the way, make a list.
There are indeed a lot of relatives and friends in this family, Song Lingyue's hands are sour when she receives the gift, and it is easy for the guests to enter the table, so she can take a break, and the housekeeper asked her to help the bookkeeper keep the gift account.
Song Lingyue took the same list and the account room, the same as good, the account room wrote the name of the guest and the gift list received, remember it in detail, so that it is convenient for the host to return the gift in the future.
The two of them were busy, one of them was late, walked to the table where the gift account was written, put the gift box and red envelope on the top, and said tiredly panting: "I'm sorry, I'm late, this is my heart and gift money, congratulations to your family......"
Before the words came out, Yan Yi's face sank, because he saw Song Lingyue who was helping, Song Lingyue heard his familiar voice, and knew that something bad was going to happen, and he wanted to lower his head to avoid him, but he didn't expect to be recognized by his sharp eyes, and secretly stomped his feet, how could he meet him anywhere?
"You come out for me!" Yan Yi pursed his mouth, saw that Song Lingyue did not move, walked around the back of the table, pulled her and walked out.
The back account room pointed at Yan Yi with a brush, and asked, "Young Master Yan, why did you take this gang away?" ”
Yan Yi waved his hand without looking back, "Tell your young master, I won't eat the banquet, congratulations to him another day, this helper is my person, I will take her away." ”
The account room is unknown, since he said that it is his person, there is no need to offend a young master for a helper, so he shook his head helplessly, and had to keep the accounts himself.
Song Lingyue was pulled all the way to the car by him, and couldn't help but say, Yan Yi pulled the car door, pushed her into the back seat, and sat in with her, telling the driver to drive, but not to Song Lingyue's residence.
"Yan Yi, what are you doing? I've been helping for a long time, but I haven't received my salary yet? Song Lingyue was angry, and she was about to get out of the car.
Yan Yi pressed her with one leg, pressed her on the seat with both hands, and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you going against me?" I said I could support you, why do you have to work by yourself, just do the work, and do this kind of rough work, helper, you still let me live? ”
Song Lingyue saw that his angry chest kept rising and falling, but the words he said were still gentle, and she felt funny in her heart, this person with a gentle temperament was not scary no matter how angry he was, unlike that summer night, good words could also be said coldly.
Thinking of Xia Yeqing, Song Lingyue was stunned, how could she think of him at any time? Can't you forget him like that? He shook his head irritably, no, he must have forgotten about him.
"Yueyue, Yueyue, what's wrong with you? Am I talking too much? I don't have a heart, but you're always disobedient, and that's not good. Yan Yi frowned, like a little resentful woman.
Song Lingyue was amused by his appearance, "poof" laughed out loud, and said helplessly: "You person, say that you have no opinion, and you are more assertive than anyone else, okay, my helper is busy in vain, and it seems that I have to find a job again." ”
Yan Yi listened to her tone soften, his heart was happy, he shook her little hand, and said flatteringly: "I'll invite you to dinner!" The western restaurant on the other side of the river, you used to like his steak the most. ”
Song Lingyue glanced at her clothes, and at first glance she was doing rough work, the kind of place in the western restaurant is the most particular about dressing, wearing this clothes, it is strange not to be kicked out, and she didn't want Yan Yi to break the bank, so she said: "Forget it!" You still send me home, I'll go back and cook some food, you finish eating and go to your work, I'll accompany Rong's mother. ”
Yan Yi snorted, and actually lost his temper, "No, I'm going to eat with you today, even if it's a small restaurant on the side of the road, I have to go once, we haven't eaten together for a long time." ”
Song Lingyue couldn't help it, she was really hungry, she passed by a noodle restaurant, it looked clean outside, Song Lingyue and Yan Yi got out of the car and walked in with him.
It is the meal, the business in the noodle restaurant is not bad, most of the tables are full, Xiao Er holds a large tray, shuttles in the gap between the tables, and sends a bowl of noodles out of the pot to the guests.
Song Lingyue and Xue Lian have been to this noodle restaurant, she doesn't care about the uproar here, but Yan Yi has never set foot in it, a young master like him, he often goes to a restaurant to invite guests, this kind of place, if it weren't for Song Lingyue, he would naturally disdain to come.
As soon as the two entered, the owner of the noodle restaurant saw that Yan Yi was dressed extraordinarily, and greeted him attentively, "What do you want to eat?" We have noodles and vegetables here, as well as stewed meat. As he spoke, he wiped the table in front of them.
Song Lingyue was afraid that Yan Yi would not be used to eating the big pot of stewed meat here, and she was also afraid of getting tired of it, so she ordered two bowls of noodles, plus two light side dishes and a plate of bacon, which was also a good meal.
When the food came up, Song Lingyue wiped the chopsticks clean and handed Yan Yi a pair, Yan Yi was obviously reluctant, but it was not easy to refuse, she symbolically picked the noodles, did not send them to her mouth, and frowned: "Why do you have to come here to eat, it's messy, and the taste of the food is not much better." ”
Song Lingyue swallowed the noodles in her mouth and said with a smile: "I haven't been to such a place before, but now, such a place is a luxury for me, and the taste of the food is actually better than that of the restaurant, which is the taste of life." ”
Yan Yi was suspicious, picked up a noodle and put it in his mouth, chewed it, and didn't taste any taste of life, he felt that this noodle was very salty and difficult to swallow, so he had to eat side dishes and bacon, but he could barely eat it.
After Song Lingyue finished eating the noodles, Yan Yi's big bowl hadn't been touched, Song Lingyue saw that he was really embarrassed, and she didn't force him to eat, so she ordered another one for Rong's mother, settled the account together, and left the noodle restaurant.
As soon as he got outside, Yan Yi took a big breath, as if the air in the noodle restaurant made him lack oxygen, Song Lingyue shook her head helplessly, even if Yan Yi didn't admit it, the facts were there, they were no longer people on the same road, no matter how hard they tried, they were destined to not get together.
Back at home, the food was still hot, Song Lingyue accompanied Rong's mother to the living room to eat, Yan Yi refused to leave, wandering inside and out, and didn't know what she was doing.
After Rong's mother finished eating, Song Lingyue packed up the dishes and chopsticks and came out, Yan Yi had already packed all the belongings of Song Lingyue and Rong's mother into the baggage and threw them in his car, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, asking Song Lingyue to go with him.
"Yueyue, I know you are stubborn, but you have to listen to me this time, Mother Rong is not in good health, the weather is getting colder again, there is no stove in such a house, do you want to make her sicker? Also, you're too far away from me, I don't think it's convenient for you, if you treat me as a friend, don't let me work so hard. Yan Yi's tone was unquestionable.
Song Lingyue didn't know which tendon was wrong with him, and asked her to move, but after thinking about it, what he said also made sense, if she could, she also wanted to give Rong's mother a better place to live, on the other hand, living in the city would be convenient for finding a good job, maybe she wouldn't have to do odd jobs like this.
After thinking about it, I agreed, "Okay! I listen to you, but you have to promise me that the house I live in will be counted as rent, and I will pay you back in the future, and you must not refuse. ”
She was willing to go, Yan Yi was already crazy with joy, and he repeatedly responded to her request, urging the two of them to get in the car, coaxing her over first, and then saying that it was her business to repay him in the future, as for whether to accept it or not, it was his own business, and he couldn't help her.
