Chapter 108:-for-tat
Wen Chen ignored him, bought a bun with the only three pennies left, took his sister's hand and walked to the street to sit on the ground, looking at his sister's cute appearance of eating the bun, he couldn't help but smile faintly, although there were already tears flashing in his eyes. 》]
"My brother eats it too." Wen Ling stuffed the half-eaten bun into Wen Chen's mouth and said with a smile.
Wen Chen took a small bite of the bun with tears in his eyes, and handed it to Wen Ling: "Brother is not hungry, let's eat Ling'er!" After eating this bun, let's go find a place to sleep, tomorrow, my brother will take Ling'er to a place, and no one will bully us there......"
"Hmm......" Wen Ling didn't seem to understand what Wen Chen was referring to, leaning on his thin shoulder and nodding sweetly.
The sunset was farther west, and the long shadows of the pedestrians flickered in front of Wen Chen's eyes one after another, reflecting his vision flickering brightly and dimming, Wen Chen lowered his head and quietly stared at Wen Ling's appearance of eating steamed buns, with a faint smile on his face, and then gently raised his hand to clasp her shoulders, and his head was pasted on her face, making her more comfortable.
"Let's eat!"
Suddenly, a simple and warm word interrupted Wen Chen's silence, and when Wen Chen slowly raised his head, he saw a white-shirted boy smiling and holding two scallion pancakes to him, his smile was very bright, making people feel like a spring breeze.
Wen Chen was surprised, but she didn't go to pick up the scallion pancake immediately, although Wen Ling's gaze at the scallion pancake showed a lingering eagerness, but seeing that her brother didn't speak, she didn't dare to pick it up.
Wen Chen gently pushed his sister up, then quickly stood up and hugged a punch: "Childe is kind, the villain has a heart, it's just ......"
Lin Xifeng waved his hand to interrupt Wen Chen's words, and said with a smile: "Even if you die, you have to be a full ghost!" ”
Wen Chen was silent for a while, looking at the greed in Wen Ling's eyes. In the end, he only took one of the scallion pancakes and handed it to Wen Ling, and said gratefully: "Childe's kindness and villain are unforgettable, and you will have to repay Childe for being a cow and a horse in the next life." ”
Lin Xifeng smiled softly: "Can you still find me in the next life?" ”
Wen Chen was stunned, listening to Lin Xifeng's meaning, it seemed that he really wanted him to be a cow and a horse in the next life...... But it was just a word of gratitude, he didn't expect Lin Xifeng to take it seriously, he was dumb for a while, his mouth opened a few times but he didn't speak, he didn't know how to answer.
"Why, you're not sure you'll find me in the next life?" Lin Xifeng continued to smile.
"I didn't ...... No. Wen Chen could only reply in a daze. He didn't believe in the words of the next life, let alone find Lin Xifeng in the next life.
"Then why bother to wait for the illusory afterlife, just repay me in this life!" Lin Xifeng stuffed another scallion pancake held in rice paper into Wen Chen's arms, and laughed loudly.
"Childe...... What does Childe mean? Wen Chen took the scallion pancake in his hand, didn't eat it immediately, and asked suspiciously.
"Aren't you a cook? My tavern happens to have a cook, so you're going to do it for me!" ”
Hearing Lin Xifeng's words, Wen Chen unconsciously glanced at the shopkeeper not far away, and then retracted his head. whispered, "Don't you...... If Childe keeps me, he will invite revenge. ”
Lin Xifeng followed Wen Chen's gaze and glanced over there, turned his head and chuckled, "Afraid of what he will do?" Not to mention that my tavern is not in Hangzhou City, even if it is here. I dare to ask for you just as much. ”
The shopkeeper also noticed the situation on Lin Xifeng's side, frowned, walked over quickly, and shouted at Lin Xifeng loudly: "Who are you?" Don't be troubled here! Get out of here! ”
Lin Xifeng turned his head to look at the shopkeeper who came over. smiled faintly: "Me? I want to hire a cook, and I just see that this guy is good, so I'm going to use him. ”
"Which restaurant are you from?" Didn't your master greet you? This person is not allowed to be recruited again! The shopkeeper said impatiently. For a while, he regarded Lin Xifeng as an errand boy in a restaurant in Hangzhou.
Regarding the extremely unfriendly expression of the shopkeeper, Lin Xifeng disagreed, and said with a faint smile: "It's a tavern that I opened myself, what do I do with him when I recruit him?" ”
"Your own tavern? Hum...... Believe it or not, if you dare to use him, within three days, Uncle Ben will be able to close your tavern! ”
"Hehe...... 'Come to Keju' restaurant, right? Believe it or not, I can make your restaurant business sluggish in three days. Lin Xifeng's smile gradually turned dark, his voice was slightly cold, and he looked at the shopkeeper without fear.
"Hahahaha...... I think you're impatient, aren't you? In Hangzhou City, few people dare to talk to Uncle Ben like this! The shopkeeper laughed angrily, pointed at Lin Xifeng and shouted with a cruel smile: "When Uncle Ben finds out which tavern your tavern is in Hangzhou City, you just wait to close!" ”
Lin Xifeng pursed his lips and sneered: "Did I say that I am from Hangzhou City?" According to the meaning of the shopkeeper, can only Hangzhou City open a tavern? ”
"You ......" As soon as the shopkeeper heard it, he understood that Lin Xifeng's tavern was no longer in Hangzhou City, although he could show off his might in Hangzhou City, but out of this land, he really had no way, and after snorting aggrievedly, he couldn't say the rest of the words after all, so he could only stare at him angrily.
"Hmph...... 'Come to the guest house' restaurant, right? I remembered. Lin Xifeng snorted coldly and waved his sleeves and turned around, and no longer paid attention to the angry shopkeeper, anyway, he was sure that this person would not do anything here, even if he was out of Hangzhou City, he also had more than 20 Keju team members to follow, these little cubs have a good physique, and they have a little brute strength, and they are not vegetarians when they really start.
Besides, he and Li Yingcheng both have kung fu, and it is not much of a problem for one person to fight a few ordinary people, but it is really not good, and with the support of the Ye family, there is no need to be afraid of this local snake.
"Wen Chen, you will be my cook, as for Sister Ling, you can be a maid in my house, would you like to go with me?" After turning around, Lin Xifeng asked straight to the point.
When Wen Chen heard this, a flash of joy flashed on his face, but then he hesitated, although Lin Xifeng didn't seem to be a bad person, and kindly gave them two scallion pancakes, but based on this alone, he still couldn't fully trust Lin Xifeng, so he was still a little hesitant.
Lin Xifeng naturally understood Wen Chen's thoughts, if it were him, he would not trust a stranger so quickly, thought about it, and asked again, "Are you afraid of death?" ”
Wen Chen paused for a moment, and then replied truthfully: "I'm afraid." ”
"Do you want my sister to die with you?"
"No...... I don't want to. ”
"Then come with me! Now that you have the hope of living well, you should seize it, if I treat you very badly in the future, it will not be too late to die, anyway, if you are bent on death, no one can stop you. ”
Lin Xifeng couldn't find any other words to persuade Wen Chen, no matter how good he promised now, it was useless, Wen Chen wouldn't believe much, so he simply said it straightforwardly, and it was good to be clear. (To be continued......)
