Chapter 31: A Person's Loneliness
Today I did 3287 yuan business, is the highest turnover since the opening of the day, I stuffed a stack of money into my bag, and immediately felt heavy, this heaviness is not the weight of the money itself, but the joy of getting back after paying.
Shen Man stayed with me until the end of the business, and I put my arm around her shoulders and said, "Senior sister, let's go, let's have supper." ”
Shen Man smiled and said, "You kid looks like a nouveau riche, but it's a little embarrassing." ”
"We're just so scared, what do you want to eat, just say, I'll Zhang Yixi, please." I was also in a good mood and laughed out loud after saying "haha".
"Then let's make do with bird's nest and abalone or something." Shen Man said lightly.
"Ah, has all this been turned into civilian consumption now?" I said pretentiously.
Shen Man slapped me lightly and smiled, and said, "I was a nouveau riche just now, but now I look a little hateful." ”
"Who wouldn't pretend to be big, I'm ........ hard-earned money"
........
We found a porridge shop, I asked for a bowl of preserved egg and lean porridge, and Shen Man asked for a bowl of longan wolfberry porridge, and the two sat and chatted and ate.
"Senior sister, has she been in a bad mental state lately?" I asked Shen Man if the porridge she drank helped calm her nerves.
Shen Man didn't care and said: "Well, there are a lot of things at the end of the year, but it's all done, it's okay." ”
I was a little distressed, and asked cautiously: "Senior sister, I think it's time for you to think about getting married, and there is someone around you who can take care of you." ”
Shen Man suddenly stopped eating, she looked up at me, her eyes seemed to be able to kill me, I hurriedly waved my hand, and said, "I'm not revealing your scars, I just feel sorry for you, the prince is good, I think it's a match made in heaven when you are together." ”
These words are my sincerity, the prince really loves Shen Man, I don't doubt it at all, and materially the prince can also give Shen Man enough security, even if Shen Man doesn't work.
Shen Man didn't bother with me about this problem, lowered his head and continued to eat, and paused before saying to me: "Let's talk about the marriage later, I just got started on Nissan's side, and it is enough for me to be anxious." ”
I nodded and stopped talking, Shen Man can say this, at least he is not so reluctant to get married, I really want to see what Shen Man looked like on the day of her wedding, she must be beautiful when she wears a wedding dress.
.........
A moment later, Shen Man's phone rang, she stopped eating, took out the phone from her pocket, looked at the number and said to me, "It's the prince's." ”
"Oh." I answered and continued to eat, not paying much attention to it.
Shen Man answered the phone and said to me: "The prince asked me to watch a movie, there is a big movie to be released, you can also come along." ”
"If you don't go, you have to get up early tomorrow to see the store, so you can go."
"Well, go back and rest early, I'll go first."
I waved my hand to Shen Man, Shen Man made a gesture to call someone on the phone, and then turned to leave, and at the moment when Shen Man's figure completely disappeared from my sight, I felt the suppressed loneliness again.
........
When I got home, I turned on the computer and entered the daily sales into the table, and our store has done 15,361 yuan of business in the past week, which is a bit beyond expectations, of course, it is also related to the explosive growth of consumption during the New Year, I am not optimistic that this sales state will be maintained.
Turn off the lights, darken the room, turn on the loneliness, I lie in bed tossing and turning, my mind wanders in the endless void, I try to outline the outline of the future, but the more I sketch, the more abstract it becomes, it turns out that the future cannot be outlined.......
I fell asleep in a trance, I dreamed that I would make the "Xiluo men's goods store" a national chain operation, becoming the largest and most professional men's products store in the inland area, I can even feel my smile in the dream, what could be happier than this?
When I woke up in the morning, I was still immersed in the joy of dreams, I felt the weight of dreams, I would no longer be negative and depressed, I understood that negativity, depression, is the biggest enemy of dreams.
"Zhang Yixi, counterattack, counterattack, you have to counterattack." Once again, I raised my arms and shouted slogans that lifted my heart.
........
On the way to the store, I was accompanied by the sporadic sound of firecrackers, as well as the couples who passed me by from time to time and snuggled up to each other, and even the laughter and laughter of a family in front of the store to go shopping.
I smiled, it was about to be another day of family reunion, and I was very envious of the family fun of passers-by.
........
After cleaning the store, I began to sit in the store and wait for customers to come, as the Chinese New Year approached, and it was almost impossible to recruit store assistants, which had to wait until the new year.
This morning's business was good, I actually did 467 yuan of business, which is also the highest turnover in the morning half a day since the opening, in the busy, I have no time to take care of my emotions, until lunch time, the customers gradually dispersed, I felt the suppressed loneliness again.
I went out to buy Chinese rice, today I want to eat a bowl of noodles, lately I have been tired of eating rice bowls and other things, I want to change the taste, in fact, this is "a person's life" even if the taste is changed, after all, it is bought, there is no taste of home at all.
........
When I returned to the store, there were three or three customers gathered in the store, I didn't have time to eat and hurriedly entertained, and when I finished entertaining customers, I remembered that when I ate, the noodles were all soaked, I sighed and smiled helplessly, tore open the disposable chopsticks and ate it.
After eating and cleaning up, I habitually picked up my phone and looked at it, there was no text message prompt, since the last time Mo Han sent me that MMS message I didn't reply, we haven't been in touch, and I don't know how she is doing, she should go home for the New Year, I secretly bless, I hope she has a good mood next year, and please take care of my scarf and gloves.
........
In the afternoon, I saw the person I didn't want to see again, Lin Xi took a man's arm and went shopping together, the man looked quite young, but I knew that at least 35 years old, successful men are very good at taking care of themselves.
Lin Xi was picking up something in the shop, the man was waiting for her outside, looking at his watch from time to time, I turned around, trying not to let Lin Xi find me, because it was embarrassing for us, it was better to pretend not to see it.
"Boss....... "A customer called me."
I turned my head, Lin Xi just came out of the store, she saw me, I also looked at her, my expression was dull, she seemed silent, she looked away from looking at me, took the shopping bag and grabbed the man's arm and left.
I was used to this kind of devastation, so I stopped looking at Lin Xi's back and began to communicate with customers.
.........
Today, Shen Man and Wang Mengmeng didn't come to see me, I think they need to be busy with a lot of things near the Chinese New Year, and when the business closes at night, I plug in my headphones and prepare for the cold, and I started my lonely journey again.
Suddenly there was a text message prompt in the headphones, I stopped the car, took out my mobile phone and looked at it, it was Mo Han, among the people I know, only she likes to keep in touch with me by text.
I opened the message: "Zhang Yixi, guess where I am?" ”
