Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Rainstorm

Shen Man'er wanted to take off her socks gently, but the blisters were connected to the socks with blood, and the tears that hurt when she touched them flowed, Shen Man'er couldn't, so she could only put her shoes back on, and continued to walk forward with a limp.

The sunlight at the bottom of the cliff gradually tilted, Shen Man'er nibbled on two mouthfuls of fish when she was hungry, moistened her lips with water from the bamboo tube when she was thirsty, and wrapped herself in rabbit skin when she was tired, and lay on the ground to sleep for a while.

When night gradually fell, Shen Man'er looked across the river, looking at the somewhat familiar scenery, estimating that she might have walked half the way. Along the way, Shen Man'er has been observing the surrounding rock walls, trying to find a gap and walk out from the bottom of the cliff, but the reality disappointed Shen Man'er, surrounded by steep mountain walls, and there was not even a cave.

Before the night came, Shen Man'er found a bush, built a simple stand with tree branches, covered the hay on it, and then got into it herself, covered it with rabbit skin, and spent the night peacefully.

It's just that that night, the black creature came to the cave where Shen Man'er stayed again, couldn't smell the blood, circled a few times, and flew away.

Shen Man'er lay in the grass, listening to the sound of bats fluttering and flying in the distance, the sound of bats chirping frightened her heart, because it was in a place she didn't know, so she slept very lightly, and the sound of bats was like a nightmare for her. Shen Man'er was so frightened that she didn't dare to close her eyes anymore, and she didn't fall asleep in a daze until the sound of the bat was no longer there.

The next day, the bird's cry sounded in her ears, and Shen Man'er crawled out of the haystack, but she was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery in front of her.

Shen Man'er came to the lake and looked at the people reflected in the lake, their faces were dirty, their hair was unkempt, and there were a few sticks of hay on it, Shen Man'er took down the hay one by one, and washed her face with the water in the lake. After staring at the lake for a long time, Shen Man'er carefully took a sip of the lake water and put it into her mouth, strange, except that it was sweeter than the pool water, she didn't feel anything else.

Shen Man'er thought about her current situation, death may not be the most terrible, so she stopped being entangled, took off her clothes, and jumped into the lake.

Bathing in the water that will never sink is also a particularly interesting thing, and Shen Man'er feels like a boat floating in the water.

When it was almost done, Shen Man'er put on her clothes, picked up a few pieces of her luggage, and continued to walk along the lake.

Finally, in the afternoon, Shen Man'er returned to the cave. Shen Man'er hurriedly ran to the fire, the fire had been extinguished, only the breeze blew, and a few sparks flashed red, Shen Man'er put the hay on the ashes and blew lightly on the sparks, maybe the weeds at the bottom of the cliff were particularly dry, or it could be that Shen Man'er's measures before leaving worked, and after a few blows, the fire burned again.

Shen Man'er walked for a day, the clothes on her body had dried, and at this time Shen Man'er was exhausted, so she roasted the remaining cold fish on the fire, and after Shen Man'er ate it, she found a comfortable position and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, a burst of lightning and thunder, crackling thunder, woke Shen Man'er from sleep, the rain curtain fell from the cave like a waterfall, Shen Man'er came to the entrance of the cave, the rain has fallen a lot, the lake has risen at least one meter, and the sound of stones falling on the surrounding rock walls is constantly coming, so frightened that Shen Man'er quickly turned back into the cave.

Because there were skeletons in the cave before, Shen Man'er had always been on the edge of the cave, and now it was raining heavily, and there was a lot of water splashing in the place where she slept, Shen Man'er quickly moved the fire inside, and this night, Shen Man'er looked at the heavy rain outside and never fell asleep again.

"Your Highness, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the brothers can't go down at all. They must be brought up immediately, otherwise it will be dangerous if there is a landslide. "Long Yi stood behind the prince, and he couldn't open his eyes at all in the heavy rain.

Xuanyuan Che stood there with his fists clenched, although he kept telling himself that Shen Man'er would not die easily, but there was still a voice in his heart that kept telling him that she might never come back.

"Let them come up. After Xuanyuan Che said this, his body swayed and fell backwards. Long Yi hurriedly stepped forward to support the prince, "Your Highness, Your Highness, come on, come on." ”

Far away in the capital of the Prime Minister's House

"Master Shen, I've read today's account book, I think the profit of barbecue is still very considerable, but now our type is relatively simple, I think we can also add mutton, chicken, duck. And some vegetables we can also consider. Shen Yibin looked at this person in a wheelchair, this was a few days ago suddenly from Zhuangzi outside the city to find Man'er, he just planned to let him go to the restaurant to go around, to get acquainted, but I didn't expect this person to be a master of business, not only solved the problem of Fuguilou a fault, but also put forward some business suggestions for himself. Shen Yibin sighed, Man'er is surrounded by capable people. The "Dream of Red Mansions" that Qin Han is in charge of before is simply a daily income, and this Tian Liang who came this time not only knows how to read, but also can read account books, and he seems to have a good set of business.

"Well, since Man'er said that you should come over to help, you will be in charge of the restaurant during this time, and tomorrow I will call Uncle Qiu, who is in charge of complex procurement, so you can familiarize yourself. Shen Yibin has been busy and crazy for a while, Man'er just explained himself before leaving, but he really encountered things, he is often easy to be emotional, and now he finally has someone who can help him, and his heart is relaxed.

"Since you are Man'er's person, I won't hide her affairs from you, Shen Wansan and Shen Sanshao in the mouth of the outside are Man'er, when your leg is healed, I will leave the matter of the restaurant to you with full authority, but Man'er's identity must be kept secret. ”

When Tian Liang heard Shen Ye say this, he finally opened a mystery in his heart, and in the past two days, he found out that this restaurant was opened by Shen Ye and a Shen Sanshao. Originally, he was Shen Man'er's person, if Miss Shen hadn't gone to Huizhou, he would never have gone to the restaurant, but now that he knows the whole story, he will definitely do his best.

"Shen Ye rest assured, Tian Liang will definitely do his best. Tian Liang clasped his fists with both hands and solemnly promised that he would definitely make the restaurant better and better.

"Xiangye, the rain is still falling, and the hour is not early, so you should go and rest early. Lao He looked at the old man who continued to write, the old man looked young, but he was also getting older, and he couldn't be as willful as before.

"Lao He, how long has Man'er been gone? After Shen Xiang finished speaking, he continued to dip in the ink and began to write.

"It's been more than ten days, it should have arrived, master, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, don't worry about it, I see Miss, but she is a lot more sensible than before." Lao He said with a smile, the current lady knows that for the sake of the Prime Minister's house, she not only published a book, but also opened a restaurant, she is really a heroine among women.

"You only know how to praise her, but you don't see what she makes me angry" Although Shen Xiang said this, he was also very happy in his heart.

Click, a muffled thunder exploded in the air, and a drop of ink dripped on the rice paper, and Shen Xiang held his slightly aching heart with his left hand, and his breath was unsteady for a while.

"Sir, what's wrong with you. Lao He hurriedly stepped forward to support him so that he would not fall.

Shen Xiang waved his hand, "It's okay, it seems that it's really old, okay, don't write, let's go back and rest." As he spoke, he put the brush down, turned around and blew out the candle, and waited for the old man to go back to the room to rest.
