Chapter 8: The Cold War
Tian Jiyao was stunned by the yelling, and then a wave of anger came up from the bottom of her heart, and she held back her anger and asked, "What are you for?" Speak up and we'll figure it out together! ”
"No need, you just go to the store, otherwise I'd rather not drink medicine and just like this for the rest of my life!" A cold voice came from the quilt, and because of the quilt, the voice sounded muffled and had a hint of grievance.
Tian Jiyao, who was originally full of anger, heard this voice, as if she had been poured a basin of cold water on her head, and her whole body was extinguished, and she couldn't get angry anymore.
She sighed faintly and said, "Okay, then I'll ask the girl next door to take care of you tomorrow, and I'll go back to the store!" ”
"Okay."
Tian Jiyao couldn't help but sigh again, she simply didn't go to sleep in the room, just lay on the table to make do, the tiredness of the past few days came to her like a sea of mountains, and soon gave up struggling and fell into black sweetness.
Shen Yun, who had been sure that Tian Jiyao was asleep after listening for a long time, quietly lifted the quilt to reveal his head, and saw Tian Jiyao sleeping on the table, so he got out of bed lightly, sat opposite Tian Jiyao, and couldn't help but feel distressed when he looked at her tired sleeping face.
Why do you always have to carry everything on your shoulders? Why...... You don't trust me? Shen Yun's fingertips caressed Tian Jiyao's face, drawing her moving eyebrows and eyes, and her heartbeat couldn't help but start to accelerate.
Immediately, he quickly withdrew his hand and silently hammered his wounded leg, as if resenting his uselessness.
After a long while, Shen Yun limped out of the door softly, and soon came back again, with an extra broom and dustpan in his hand, he walked to the bed with his things, and went directly to pick up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.
After packing everything up, Shen Yun took out a thick coat from the suitcase, gently draped it on Tian Jiyao's body, blew out the lights and candles, and went to bed in the dark.
——
Early the next morning, Tian Jiyao woke up, looked around with her misty eyes, and then remembered the quarrel with Shen Yun last night, and was just about to stretch when she sat up, something fell off her shoulder, she subconsciously reached out to pick it up, and took the softness of her hand, only to find that it was a coat, and it looked like Shen Yun's.
Holding this coat, Tian Jiyao laughed silently, isn't this quite good at caring about people?
Tian Jiyao stood up and walked to the bed, saw that Shen Yun was sleeping soundly, helped him tuck the corners of the quilt, and quietly went out. After Tian Jiyao closed the door, Shen Yun slowly opened his eyes, and there was a clear meaning in his eyes, how could he look like he had just woken up?
Tian Jiyao went out, went to the kitchen to find the rice, put the rice in the pot and lit the fire, and sat in front of the stove with his chin propped up.
Things in the store are a little tricky, and this time the matter was clearly planned by Steward Hu and Steward Liu of Zhongzheng Rice Bank, why? Just to get her out of the way to win over her employees? Listening to what Brother Dan said yesterday, Steward Hu has always been unhappy to be pressed by Steward Wang, and in order to get ahead, he colluded with Steward Liu to annex the Shen family's shop, so that he could have a place.
And the two shopkeepers in the store seem to have been successfully wooed by Steward Hu, and they are ready to follow Steward Hu to Zhongzheng Mixing, these three people are bound to not be able to stay, and it is also a trouble to recruit people again, thinking of this, Tian Jiyao couldn't help but sigh again.
Since crossing into this unknown dynasty, her bad luck has not stopped, first she was bought by the Shen family as a child daughter-in-law, although Shen Yun was good to her, she was cleaned up like a quail, but she always felt that she couldn't see through him, Shen's father bought her back, although she didn't let her starve and freeze-dry rough work, but her words would inevitably reveal a bit of high-minded master's appearance, which made her feel uncomfortable.
But the deceased has passed away, and she can't say anything, after all, if it wasn't for the Shen family to buy her back, maybe it was unknown whether she would live or not now, and she never had hope for the ancient slavery system.
A large group of relatives of the Shen family are also bad, all of them are stupid and poisonous, and they don't know that their harmful thoughts are spread out in the sun, and they are used as guns to make them turn around, and they feel that they are extremely smart.
Now it's like this in the store, it's endless!
Tian Jiyao rubbed her temples with a headache, if she continued like this, she would be decrepit before she grew old!
The gurgling sound in the pot pulled back her thoughts, Tian Jiyao hurriedly lifted the lid to see, the fragrant and attractive rice fragrance came to her face, the glutinous white rice kept rolling in the pot, she quickly pulled out the firewood in the stove, waved a few times to extinguish the flame that was still burning, put the unburned firewood aside, and used it next time, leaving only some charcoal fire that was clearly extinguished to maintain the temperature of the porridge inside.
She took out two eggs from the rice bowl, quickly beat them, took advantage of the residual heat in the stove, changed a pot, put oil, laid eggs, stir-fried, and in one go, in less than five minutes, a plate of steaming scrambled eggs was out of the pot.
Tian Jiyao drank a bowl of porridge with eggs, filled her stomach, and was ready to go.
She went into the house and changed her clothes, put on a bun and went out lightly, closed the courtyard door, walked to the door of the house next door with a familiar car, and raised her hand to knock on the courtyard door.
Soon a female voice full of energy came out of it, "Who?" The door is unlocked, come in by yourself! ”
Tian Jiyao pushed the door in, and replied, "Aunt Li, it's me, Brother Yun's daughter-in-law next door!" "Walk into the yard and stand still.
There was a noise in the kitchen, and a middle-aged woman dressed in an indigo cloth quickly came out, and said with a smile on her face: "Is it Brother Yun's daughter-in-law?" Hurry up, come in and sit, early in the morning, have you eaten the morning food? I didn't eat and sat down to eat something, I'm doing it! ”
Tian Jiyao returned a smile and replied, "No need Aunt Li, I've eaten it, I'm here to borrow it from your family!" ”
Aunt Li was obviously stunned by her for a moment, and then asked, "Do you have anything to help you with?" Anyway, I'm going to wake up that lazy girl! ”
Tian Jiyao saw that it was not early, and directly explained her intention, "That's Aunt Li, I'm in a hurry to rush back to the store to deal with some things, but my husband's leg is still injured and no one can take care of it, I thought that our two families are neighbors, so I cheekily asked Aunt Li to let Nan Nan help me take care of my father-in-law, and I will pay by day!" ”
Aunt Li originally heard that she was going to take care of a big man, but she was a little reluctant, but when she heard that Tian Jiyao was willing to give money, she immediately agreed.
"Hey! What's this little thing? I'm going to wake up that lazy girl! Turning around and about to go inside to call Nannan, Tian Jiyao hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Auntie, you don't have to be so early, you just need to let Nannan go over at noon and evening to cook a meal for Xianggong and boil medicine for him, you don't have to go over now!" ”
"Oh, okay, I'll explain to her, do you want to sit down?" Aunt Li said polite words, but there was no hint of wanting Tian Jiyao to stay in her eyes.
