171. Are you the boss lady here?
In the silence, I suddenly heard the angry voice of Mi Li below: "You are not allowed to scold my mother, I am an adult, and I am a boy, of course I have to go to the toilet by myself." When the words fell, he saw that something was smashed on the ground, "I don't want to drink the drink you bought." ”
lowered his eyes and stared, and saw that it was the drink paper cup that he was holding in Mi Li's hand, and he smashed it so hard, and the liquid inside splashed out, and some even splashed on the black slacks and leather shoes.
I stared at the milky white liquid and felt very dazzling, and my eyes sank, "Rice grains, apologize!" ”
But Mi Li held his head high and said stubbornly: "He scolded you." ”
When I spoke again, there was more sternness in my tone: "Zhou Miyun, have I ever taught you to be so rude?" ”
This time, Mi Li didn't fight back, but he still refused to apologize.
"Zhou Miyun!" I raised my voice again.
At this moment, a soft voice came in: "Zhou? The man standing in front of him turned his head, paused, and walked over. I couldn't help but follow the glance, and a young woman in a beige wool dress stood not far away, and as he approached, she asked softly, "Didn't you say you were going to buy a drink?" How did you get here? ”
"I just happened to have a little problem, now it's okay, let's go."
I watched as the long figure stretched out its arms around the other party's shoulders, and then turned its back away.
My hand was dragged from the bottom, I forcibly withdrew my gaze and looked down, and saw Mi Li tilting his head and calling me timidly: "Mom, I was wrong, don't be angry, okay?" ”
I asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I shouldn't be throwing things around."
"What else?"
Mi Li thought about it seriously, "No. ”
"Can you be so rude to others?"
He shook his head, but he couldn't tell himself: "But he scolded you, and it was also rude." ”
I couldn't help but squint slightly, but I didn't say anything. Mi Li looked up at my face and then took my hand, and said pitifully: "Mom, that bad guy just now is so hateful, I wanted to call you, but my mouth was covered, and my face still hurts." ”
My heart suddenly tightened, and I immediately lowered my body to investigate, and sure enough, I saw red fingerprints on both cheeks of the rice grains.
It was only at this point that the nerve reflex arc suddenly realized that it was afraid, if it wasn't just now...... When I looked up again, the noisy airport seemed to be empty. The police found this side and asked Mi Li to go to the guardhouse to identify the suspect, although they didn't want Mi Li to contact the bad guys again, but they were helpless.
As soon as he walked into the guardhouse, he was stunned, and the two people who had just left were also inside.
I lowered my eyes as I turned my gaze, and then I only stood behind Mi Li during the identification process, and did not leave the guardhouse until I had completed the procedure and left my contact information. There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and he turned slightly to see them coming out of it as well.
Not far away, I stopped my gaze and looked quietly.
Sensing my gaze, they all looked this way.
She turned her head sideways and asked in a low voice, "Zhou, are we leaving?" ”
I bent down and picked up the rice grains and walked straight away, leaving the airport gate, stopping a taxi on the side of the road and getting in. The driver asked me for the address, and just about to speak, my eyes fell on the rearview mirror, and the driver asked again, and then came back to my senses and reported the address.
The car slowly slid into the track, and the two figures in the rearview mirror gradually pulled away.
Xiaohua came to me and said that I didn't care when a customer was looking for it, it was a drink shop, and there were always a few regular customers who came to greet me. When he was busy with the things at hand, he walked to the station number told by Xiaohua, but he couldn't help but pause.
The raised bright eyes are warm and shallow, just like looking at each other at the airport yesterday.
I sat down across from her, neither of them spoke, and the noise around me seemed to be far beyond the barrier. In the end, it was she who broke the silence first: "Don't you ask me why I came to you?" ”
I pursed the corners of my mouth and said, "Why?" ”
She smiled softly, "I saw you from afar when you came that year, maybe your eyes impressed me deeply, so I recognized you when I first saw you yesterday." ”
I listened silently and did not respond. But in my heart, I asked: So what?
She paused and then said, "I'm sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Yang Jing." ”
Because it's a long holiday, there are more customers in the store, and Xiaohua and Ming Tsai will be too busy, so I definitely have to go to the store to help. I didn't worry about finding someone else to bring the rice grain, so I still took it to the store and arranged to play with toys in the lounge.
This kid can't be quiet, but he is very patient when building Lego, and he can sit there all afternoon without distractions.
Sensing that his mind had shifted to Mi Li, he quickly came back to his senses and slowly spoke: "Miss Yang, the business in the store is very busy today and I need to take care of it, you might as well tell me what you mean." ”
Yang Jing was stunned, I was afraid that I didn't expect that I would order the expulsion so directly.
"Actually, it's nothing special, I just want to come and see you, and besides, the boy was ...... yesterday"
"I'm sorry," I interrupted with a loud voice, "if you don't have anything important to do with me, I'll really have to get busy." His eyes swept over the cup in front of her, and he said politely: "Oolong milk tea is one of our store's signature teas, if you are not in a hurry to leave, it is recommended to try the new lemon blue mountain launched today." ”
Yang Jingjing looked at me quietly for a moment, shook his head and said, "I'm not in a hurry to leave." ”
So I got up and beckoned Xiaohua to give her another lemon blue field. After that, he was busy walking around the various tables, not paying much attention to her, and then he didn't pay attention to when she left.
But when Xiaohua was cleaning up the table, she received a missing bag at her table, and she didn't come back to pick it up until the evening.
At about 8 o'clock in the evening, I was not so busy, I was going to go back with the rice grains first, and explained that Xiaohua and Ming Tsai would close in half an hour, and the sanitation work could be done again tomorrow morning.
Just about to pull Mi Li away, a figure pushed the door in, and heard Mi Li shout out first: "Uncle." Afraid that I didn't recognize it, he tugged at my hand and whispered to me: "Mom, that's my uncle who rescued me at the airport yesterday." ”
There was surprise in the other party's eyes, as if he didn't expect to bump into us here.
But he just nodded at us and swept away, without saying hello, I turned sideways and saw him walk straight to the bar and ask Xiaohua: "Have you received a small black square bag, skinned, with a few plum blossoms printed on it?" ”
Xiaohua subconsciously looked at me, "Boss, he seems to be the owner." ”
The heavy black eyes showed surprise again, and hesitated to ask me, "Are you the boss lady here?" ”
I nodded slightly, and said with a blank face, "It is true that one customer lost one of the bags on the seat, but I remember that the customer seemed to be a lady." I wonder if this gentleman has any proof to pick up the bag for that lady? ”
He thought about it and took out his mobile phone, and after half a minute, he handed it over, and it was Yang Jing on the screen.
They connected to the web.
Yang Jing said to me apologetically: "I'm sorry, my bag seems to be missing from you, I can't leave here if I have something to do, please Zhou go over and help me get it." Oh yes, I have my ID and wallet in the bag, you can open it and check it before giving it to Zhou, I'm really sorry to bother you. ”
I asked Xiaohua to open the bag and check the documents, and it was determined that it was Yang Jing's bag.
I used to work in the legal profession, and in some ways I would not be sloppy, and it could also be described as an occupational disease. Before returning the bag, I instructed Xiaohua to ask the other party to write a note proving that the bag had been taken, in case there was a liability dispute in the future.
When I walked out of the coffee shop with rice grains, I looked back and saw a figure standing with his back buried in his head writing on the bar. The outline was a little blurry through the glass door, as if the images in my mind had been misted in the past few years.
I didn't expect him to suddenly turn his head to look at him, even with a pen in his hand.
Silently, there were customers walking through it, coming and going, and no one noticed that there were two eyes meeting. I didn't move the corners of my mouth, I didn't even have the lightest expression, I just watched quietly.
I thought to myself, is he looking at me? Or didn't you see me in your eyes?
The line of sight shifted during the thought, and he also turned his back and continued to write with his head down. It was as if I was outside the sea of people, and he just glanced at it casually and didn't leave any impression.
Pulled the rice grain and turned around, and walked slowly in the direction of the apartment.
Ahead, laughter and singing in the night, turned into a gray scene, like a frozen picture when the mobile phone pressed the camera button.
Behind the drink shop, above the starlight, is its name.
Night rain in Bashan.
