Chapter Ninety-Three: A Little Thing
On the one hand, Xi Zien was busy filling his stomach, and on the other hand, he saw that Li Jicai did not speak, so he did not speak.
It wasn't until he was full of food and burps that he put down his chopsticks.
The cold feeling all over the body has been driven away, probably because of hunger, I feel cold all over my body, and now I feel hot when I am full.
Especially the chili sauce that Li Jicai brought over, after only licking a little bit on the tip of his tongue, he felt numb and spicy, but it was just like this with a feeling of heat, which dispelled the cold of winter and dispelled the feeling of shrinking.
This feeling is so good, the dumplings are so delicious, Xi Zien naturally feels really satisfied.
"If it's delicious, you can bring some dumplings back to your house and ask someone to cook them for you, this dumpling is freshly made and eaten, next time you want to eat, you can also come to the store and tell me." Li Jicai couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at Xi Zien's concentration on eating, but I don't know where this kind of funny comes from.
"Aren't all your shops closed? , lie to me all day long, I see that you are closed, where will I go to eat in the future? ”
"Closed? Who told you that? It's not closed, it's open well. Li Jicai was a little inexplicable when he heard this, he lived with fate, when did he say that he was going to close the door?
"If it's not closed, then why did you tear down the store?"
"I demolished it because I wanted to replace it with a new one."
"You even demolished the gate, I don't see it." Xi Zien swallowed the last dumpling, and his eyes were choked and he rolled his eyes, but he continued to express his doubts, and when his subordinates told him, they also said that Suiyuanju was going to close.
"No, it's that I want to renovate the store from start to finish, it's necessary."
"So when have you been repairing?"
"There is no need to worry about all aspects of the furniture, it has been all arranged, but on this wall, the painter I need has not been found, and I am still looking at it for the past two days."
"Painter? Aren't you a hotel? Why do you need an artist? I don't understand that. ”
"It's a sure thing to find an artist, you'll know when the time comes." Li Jicai pretended to be mysterious and said.
"Oh, what kind of artist are you looking for? It's good to draw at the beginning of the day. Xi Zien just said in passing, after all, among all the people he knew, Qi Qingchu's painting skills were the best.
When Li Jicai heard Qi Qingchu's name, his heart suddenly jumped, and his ears began to heat up slightly, and he even had some expectations.
"Oh, no, Qingchu is too busy, I guess I don't have the time to come and paint for you with Yuanju." This Xi Zien himself vetoed such an idea, not to mention that Qi Qingchu was so difficult to handle, how could he casually come over and paint for civilians.
"I know, the identity of the adults is there, and we ants naturally don't have the qualifications to move." Li Jicai shook his head awkwardly, indicating that he would not do that superfluous fantasy.
"Then after the decoration of your store is completed, I will come and take a look, although you can open it with confidence, I will cover you, and there will be no more people from the government to harass you." Xi Zien couldn't help but pat his chest, and then reassured.
Hearing this, Li Jicai's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face suddenly brightened, what? Has the person who embarrassed her already been found? Has it been resolved?
"This, what do you say about Childe?"
"Actually, it's just a little misunderstanding, another day, how about I bring that person here and give you a show? It's set when your store reopens, and when the time comes, she won't be unable to get off the stage in front of everyone. ”
"The store will open tomorrow, this doesn't have to be so blatant, just settle in private, the problem is that I don't know where I offended that person, is he a man or a woman?" Li Jicai was a little curious, who was the person she offended? Or does she know each other? Or is it that the interests of others are touched.
"Naturally, it's someone you can't reach, but don't guess, forget it, forget it, I'll tell you, in fact, it's actually Luo Lianfang, and everyone in the Luo family is not easy to mess with, but I'll help you solve this matter." Xi Zien knew what she was thinking when he looked at her face.
This person is simply too simple, simpler than her, whatever he says is what he says, and he is really easy to deceive.
"That's embarrassing, if Childe can solve this matter, Suiyuanju will definitely regard Childe as a guest, and will never dare to have any slackness." Li Jicai couldn't help but solemnly promised, she didn't know what she could give the other party at this moment? But she didn't want to owe the other party, so she could only say that she did her best to thank others.
"It doesn't have to be that complicated, as long as you come and you can have something to eat." As soon as Xi Zien's expression relaxed, he liked to joke, and he didn't take his own words or the other party's words seriously at all.
"Yes, yes, it must be, I don't know when Childe will bring Miss Naluo over." Li Jicai said excitedly, she couldn't wait to solve this matter that had been bothering her for a long time.
"Don't panic, it'll be here in two days, you prepare a little in advance."
"Uh-huh." Li Jicai left a few dumplings, and she will feed Xiao Erhei later.
"What I promised you will naturally be done, and you definitely don't have to worry." Xi Zien inexplicably felt a little proud, and quite a sense of accomplishment.
Although it is a trivial matter, it is still dealing with civilians.
Xi Zien finished eating all the dumplings cooked by Li Jicai before putting down his chopsticks satisfied.
The dumplings are full, the taste is okay, and the steaming heat dispels the cold, although it is not as delicate as the house, but considering that Li Jicai was made in a hurry, some roughness is inevitable.
"According to what you say, it's actually because Qi Qingchu got sick after eating my food, so his so-called confidante didn't like my shop, so he sent someone to trouble me, right?" Li Jicai sorted out what the mat said during the meal, and it roughly meant this.
"But you don't have to worry too much, I've already arranged these things, really, it's a trivial matter, it's nothing. As long as you ask Qingchu to invite her to dinner, she will come to your store, so as to show his attitude, Luo Lianfang will not target you. ”
"Is this really going to work?" Li Jicai was a little worried.
"What works and can't work? He was to blame for this incident, if he hadn't gone back the next day and pretended to be sick and didn't go to court, how could such a thing happen? ”
"Eh, pretending to be sick and not going to court?" What's going on, how the more she listens, the more confused she becomes.
"Alas, I said that I missed my mouth again, forget it, it's no one else anyway." Xi Zien said with some annoyance, he is like this, he can run faster than anyone else for unguarded people.
This sentence is not that someone else has successfully pleased Li Jicai, to a certain extent, does this mean that she is not too far away from them.
"I didn't expect Lord Qi, who is famous for his hard work, to have such a lazy behavior, it's really unimaginable."
Li Jicai chuckled and shook her head, feeling a little unconvinced, in her heart, Qi Qingchu was the kind of person who was high up and dusty, like an immortal, and treated him like a fragile crystal, cautious, cautious and frightened.
"That's right, he's just a sullen person, people outside look like this, in fact, anyone who comes into contact with him knows what he's usually like, but no one can get close to him."
Xi Zien pursed his lips, at first he also thought that Qi Qingchu was a very good person, just inside and out, really so praised. But in fact, when he got closer to him, he realized that it was not what he thought it was at all. Qi Qingchu is a sinister and cunning old fox, don't look at his age, he is scheming.
If it weren't for his scheming, how could he have gained a foothold in the court at such a young age?
"After all, is he a difficult person to get along with?"
"It's not difficult to get along with each other, but because his mind is too meticulous, some things are simply impossible to prevent." Xi Zien remembered the days when he was tricked, and he felt that he was bitter and tearful, and outsiders said that they were both swords, but in fact, he was unilaterally squeezed and used by him.
Li Jicai listened carefully, and also muttered in his heart, he didn't expect Qi Qingchu to be such a person in Xi Zien's mouth.
"Don't get me wrong, Qingchu can't say that he's bad, and of course he can't say he's particularly good, in general, it's still in line with the description of him by the people of Chu State."
Considering Qi Qingchu's face, Xi Zien didn't want to describe him too terrible, so that Li Jicai had a bad impression of him.
"Of course I know this, but you said that he would come with that girl, would he really come?" She is still worried in her heart, and things that are not determined always make people feel uneasy.
"That's definitely going to come, I dare to pack the ticket, after all, I told him very seriously." Ordinary big and small things, if it weren't too much, Xi Zien would never be angry because Qi Qingchu used him, but if Xi Zien had something very serious to tell him, it meant that he was determined to Qi Qingchu to agree to him and cooperate with him.
Although it was a civilian matter this time, Xi Zien promised Li Jicai, so he had to do it no matter what.
Li Jicai felt a little uneasy, but this uneasy feeling didn't come from nowhere.
After all, Xi Zien has helped her and made this matter turn around, so will it really develop in a better direction?
"That Luo Lianfang, I heard you talk about her before, what kind of person is she?" Li Jicai repeated the question she asked last time, probably because she was still very worried in her heart, after all, the identity of the other party was there, how could she be compared.
"It's more beautiful than you, and the figure is plumper than you, and the family status is definitely far more than you, but I don't like it in other aspects of character, in my opinion, she is not as good as you."
"I don't know if you're praising me or belittling me." The longer Li Jicai has been in contact with Xi Zien, the more he feels that this person is a big mouth, and sometimes he can't spit out ivory in his dog's mouth, but his heart is not bad, and he can even feel that this person is a little simple, and he is very easy to get along with her, so he doesn't have to worry about too much, and he is not afraid of offending the other party by saying the wrong thing.
"Of course it's praising you, I've never praised people, right?"
"Okay, okay, I'll just treat you as a compliment to me." Li Jicai softened her face, looked outside, the sky that had already darkened was a little terrifying, staring at the door in a daze, maybe someone would pass by her door in a hurry, maybe someone would suddenly break in.
Xi Zien took a sip of tea from the teacup, and saw Li Jicai's gaze turned outside, staring at her side face, feeling that her heart was inexplicably throbbing, and the blood flowing in her veins seemed to be starting to heat up.
"Do you have someone you like?" Somehow, this sentence suddenly popped up in Xi Zien's head, but before she could think about whether to say it or not, her mouth asked first.
After asking, he suddenly regretted it.
Is he fed? is a good girl's family, and there is no one you like, isn't it a little ambiguous? Will the other party be cranky and think that he is interesting to him?
However, Xi Zien did not feel too much regret, because he had a faint expectation, as if a seed suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and then took root and sprouted, and soon grew into a tree, and then quickly bloomed full of flowers.
Pink, white, slender and curly petals fell, and it rained in my heart.
Feeling like never before, Xi Zien lowered his head and restrained his eyes from looking at Li Jicai, and he was even a little embarrassed to see her reaction.
"Yes, what are you doing with this?" Li Jicai heard Xi Zien ask her, and then saw her lower her head, as if she had done something wrong and didn't know what to do, she couldn't help but laugh, and she felt inexplicably funny
This guy is weird.
She already has a crush on her, Xi Zien suddenly raised her head again when she heard this, her eyes looked at her without blinking, her lips opened slightly, and she squirmed a few times, but she didn't make a sound.
"Even if you have a favorite person, it's useless, the gap between the other party and me is too far, it's a day and a place, I'm afraid I can't ask for it, I can't love it." In the process of chatting with Xi Zien, Li Jicai also took off his guard accordingly, and calmly talked to him about topics that were actually relatively private for women.
On the one hand, Xi Zien was a little surprised that Li Jicai said it so calmly, and on the other hand, he was also muttering in his heart, who would be the person Li Jicai said.
"The little girl's family, how old is this."
"Didn't you say you were going to find me my in-laws some time ago?" Li Jicai felt a little inexplicable, how could this Xi Zien say one thing is another, he didn't say that last time. "That's not what you said last time in the store."
