Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Moon's Queen
ββA week laterββ
"Welcome."
Shimafu, who was standing straight next to the gate, looked at the faces that were almost familiar with him, and the movements of the customers walking in the direction of the gate, and knew very well that these were already some regular diners.
I think I came here a lot, but it was only from the first day I came here that I started to get more frequent.
"Hmm...... It's still the same. β
Because the girl in front of her is very polite all the time, the guests also put away their usual lazy appearance, and when they enter this restaurant, they show their friendliest side.
So it's all because of the politeness of the island style.
So the customer walked gently past and sat down in the same seat......
"Yo! Morning. β
A young man with short black hair, smiling brightly, waving his right hand, appeared in the field of vision of the island wind again.
"Morning, does Cui Lan still want a saury meal today?"
Daofeng has been holding his little hand in front of his lower abdomen, and when he saw the boy, he smiled a little as usual, and agreed kindly.
"Yes, after all, isn't Yanmu's seafood quite delicious...... Haha......"
The young man is naturally Yan Feng's friend, and he has often come here as a guest in the past few days, and now he is taking advantage of Yan Feng's back kitchen, and he has a rare opportunity to taunt him.
"Be quiet...... If you pay attention to it in the back kitchen, you can still hear it. β
This is not the first time that this young man has ridiculed Yan Feng so much, presumably he has a very good relationship with Yan Feng, so he will talk about Yan Feng every day when he comes here...... Of course, most of them are bad things about Yan Feng.
It's just that this kind of behavior, for such a person with a kind face and a friendly person, still won't make Shimafeng feel malicious.
"Huh......? It's true? β
However, it was the first time I heard Daofeng say that when he was at the door, the voice could be heard in the back kitchen, and the young man named Cui Lan was also stunned for a moment.
"Of course, he can basically hear what I say to the customer."
Shimakaze closed his eyes and just said this.
The etiquette that should be done has also been done.,For acquaintances.,Island Wind thinks it's better to have a little bit of your own personality.γ
Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing to know each other but only talk about work reasons.
"Uh-huh...... Then I'll go in first. β
Most likely thinking that this place should not be long in this place, he planned to quickly disappear from the only place where he could see the door in the back kitchen.
"Hoo ......"
There was no one in the street again, and Island Wind raised his head, still staring at the street opposite him outside the gate in a dignified manner.
Exhale softly and spend this ordinary day like this.
-- A month later --
In the already empty restaurant, Yan Feng and Daofeng sat at the table under the light, counting today's income daily.
"Well, it's wages."
After settling the day's income, Yan Feng suddenly took out a small wallet from behind him and pushed it with his fingers from the table to Daofeng opposite.
"Ah......?"
Daofeng originally wanted to get up and move the tatami mats to sleep, but unexpectedly, Feng's sudden movement made her a little stupid.
"Don't be surprised...... I said that you are in the store, it is work, not helping...... When it comes to salary, the most important thing is to make your life better, and you don't really plan to sleep on tatami mats every night, do you? β
Yan Feng felt that Daofeng's reaction was not too exaggerated.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for Island Wind, the income in the restaurant might not even be as good as one-third of what it is now, and I don't know how much benefit I have received, and if the rest of the salary is not given to Island Wind, it would be too mean.
Although it's a family, I shouldn't have talked about money or anything, but out of distress about money, there is no way to give money at will to let my family buy things, so it will be much easier to accept some necessary living expenses for Island Feng from the perspective of paying salaries.
"You know I'm a thrifty and even harsh person, so if I don't have the slightest position to pay my employees, you're probably not going to have your own pocket money all the time."
He said this, his eyes still closed and his head slightly lowered, but his facial expression was serious.
"So, when the salary is paid, please take it quickly...... If I excuse myself, I'll really take it back. β
I don't know if it's because I'm worried about the money or what, Yan Feng's words don't seem to be fake......
"Oh...... Oh. β
Shimakaze still stretched out his right hand and gently took the small purse.
Well......
Yan Feng is also right......
I really don't feel like I need anything anymore, and it's safe to just keep it up and not break it, but if you think about it......
I slept in a cold restaurant every night, covered with a small quilt that was not thick, and sometimes I couldn't sleep.
I have washed my work clothes many times, and if I wear them like this all the time, will it look monotonous?
Obviously, when I finish eating every day, I am still hungry, but I have to make a full appearance, and I don't buy something to fill my stomach, will it be too hypocritical?
So if you think about it...... Obviously, I really need a little money to maintain my life, but I don't think I need it, then I am too cruel to myself.
Although I really no longer rely on the warm bed, I am no longer attached to the way I dress as a girl, and I am also ...... to the sisters around me
Shimakaze's thinking suddenly stopped.
"Hmmm......"
In short, from a practical point of view, it is still needed...... So, you don't need to think about some strange things yourself.
"If you have time, you can buy casual clothes that suit you, or if you are wealthy, you can buy new work clothes and rent a room of your own...... So it's still useful, right? Don't be too stingy, if you have pocket money, just use it, after all, this is what the island wind won by his own efforts, if you want to use it, then don't be polite. β
Yan Feng waited until Daofeng took away the wallet before opening his eyes, and recommended how to use it for Daofeng.
"Oh......"
Looking at the small purse pressed on his legs, Island Wind was also a little curious.
Myself...... It's the first time I've gotten my own money.
So...... Let's live a good life on my own.
Rely on yourself and don't need the help of others......
β¦β¦ Right?
