Chapter 26 (Chang'an that year, pounding clothes under the moon)
Uncle Li sent Ling Yuechan to the return residence and said, "Sister Ling, I'm going to buy some things now, and I'll pick you up later."
Ling Yuechan kept thanking Uncle Li crampedly, and said, "It's really troublesome Uncle Li, your family, I'm really embarrassed." I secretly thought in my heart that if I succeeded today, I would definitely invite Aunt Li and her family to eat at home and buy something good.
"Okay, Sister Ling, my mothers treat you as a sister, then you are our sister, if you say this again, it will be a shame, come in, I'm in a hurry, and I'm leaving." Uncle Li smiled at Ling Yuechan and left.
Ling Yuechan watched Uncle Li leave, looked at the returning residence in front of her, sorted out her clothes slightly with her hands, and walked in slowly.
Su Yan was helping to pour the tea, and when she saw Ling Yuechan coming in at the door, she was secretly surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she pressed herself and continued to pour the tea, so as not to be too excited and scare Ling's sister-in-law.
Ling Yuechan saw Su Yan when she entered the door, Qing Shui came out of the hibiscus, and naturally carved and decorated, which made people feel very comfortable, and went up and asked, "Girl, may I ask if this store is recruiting people?"
Su Yan laughed enthusiastically, and then said to Ling Yuechan: "Yes, we are too busy, we are usually short of people, if you still have food and accommodation with us, we can arrange anything for you, as long as you need it."
Feng Jin watched Su Yan talk to Ling Yuechan non-stop, and went up to grab her a little helplessly, and said to Ling Yuechan: "I'm sorry, she has such a personality and talks a lot, if the girl wants to come to our store, our boss is in charge of the kitchen today, you can go and ask him."
Ling Yuechan looked at the two people in front of her with some doubts, a tall and upright son, a delicate and refined girl, the temperament of the two is also different from the people around them, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like they are doing chores in the store, this shop is really strange, she actually invited such a character, and the storyteller has even heard of her in the village, it seems that this boss must be a character.
Feng Jin took Ling Yuechan to the back kitchen, delivered it to the door, and went to the hall to help.
Ling Yuechan entered the door and saw Yun Baiqi's back, she was a little stunned, so familiar, as if she was ......
Yun Baiqi was going to the other side to get the condiments, and when he turned his head, he saw Ling Yuechan, who stiffened for a moment, and suddenly didn't know what he was going to do in the next second.
It was Ling Yuechan who came back to her senses first and asked: "Boss, I'm here to recruit a cook, and I'm usually good at cooking, so let's give it a try, but the little woman's family is just me and my brother-in-law, and some gossip may be said, I don't know if you mind, boss."
"Don't mind, you can come as long as you want." Yun Baiqi agreed, looking at Ling Yuechan with some distraction, in fact, he knew that she would come, but he still couldn't control his emotions when he looked at her, he wanted to hug her, he wanted to do the same as before, but unfortunately he couldn't do it.
Ling Yuechan looked at the mask on his face and asked, "Aren't there any other requirements?" Don't I have to do something? “
Yun Baiqi pulled himself back from his memories and said gently: "You don't have to do anything, it's a little busy here, so it may be very dark every day to call it a day, and the cook is also very short, and I can't be busy in the kitchen for a long time, so I especially need to recruit people, you can eat and live here, two taels a month, okay?"
"Two-two? So much? Thank you to the owner. Ling Yuechan was very happy. If you eat and live here, it will be convenient to see Yun Yiran, and two taels of silver will be enough for them for a long time.
Yun Baiqi looked at Ling Yuechan deeply, as if he wanted to imprint her in his heart, and continued: "You can go back and pack up today, and come back tomorrow, so I can clean up the room for you."
After discussing, Ling Yuechan said goodbye and went home, Yun Baiqi watched Ling Yuechan go back, he was a little stunned, and he didn't have any motivation to do things, Feng Jin saw his thoughts, so he closed the inn early, Lin Qingping was very happy, and ran directly to the tavern.
"Brother Yun, why don't you go and rest early, I see that your face is very bad." Feng Jin looked at Yun Baiqi with some concern, and Su Yan also echoed it.
Yun Baiqi said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Feng, Miss Su, I've made some trouble for everyone today."
"You, since Sister-in-law Ling came, your face hasn't been better, you've been a little too tired these days, let's go and rest early, just take a vacation, by the way, Feng Jin and I can also go and have fun." Su Yan smiled at Feng Jin.
Yun Baiqi listened to the advice of Su Yan and others, went upstairs to rest, but he couldn't sleep, what always appeared in his mind was Ling Yuechan's face today, how was she doing, did she ever complain about him, staring at her face today, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and there were a few more strands of gray hair in her hair, and she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.
Yun Baiqi couldn't sleep even more, he got up directly and went outside, at this time it was dark, he walked alone on the street, looking at the surrounding streamers, he remembered that today was the Lantern Festival, these days are really busy and faint, I actually forgot that the Lantern Festival, she and he were also together at this time.
The former girl, petite, so timid that she only knew how to stay behind him, over the years, they have changed, she has become more and more sensible, and it has made him more and more distressed, after all, he is sorry for her, and once again touched his mask, thinking of the terrifying face under the mask, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Iraqi people are still there, the past is gone, and this is the end after all.
