Back when I first met Michael, Baiyun was still an innocent girl.

On the night of August 15, the entire Yangcheng was immersed in a sea of happiness. This day is suitable for encounters, confessions, and shopping.

On a full moon night, the whole street is brighter, like a dragon with a night pearl in its mouth. A pair of eyes are like lanterns, looking for "prey" everywhere.

From the afternoon, there will be a lively and romantic market in Yangcheng. Bai Yun naturally did not miss such a good opportunity, and began to prepare for the next sale items to be displayed from the morning. Her helper Xiaocui would only come over in the afternoon, because her child had a fever last night and sent someone to ask for leave early in the morning.

She was the only one in the store, so she was naturally busier than usual. But Bai Yun still put everything in order.

At that time, she had the longest hair in her life, wore pale pink rouge, and wore a cheongsam with plain ink painting patterns. The clear eyes are like dew that has not yet dropped. Her eyes are gentle and slightly shy, and she is a typical classical beauty.

She is very famous for her beauty and gold, and she is very famous in Yangcheng. Many rich children covet her beauty and want to marry her as a wife and concubine. Bai Yun was not shaken by it, and it was useless for anyone to propose marriage. Even if the knife is on her neck, you can't force her to do what she doesn't want to do. In love and marriage, she advocates freedom and independence. This coincides with Michael.

"Hello, beautiful lady, my name is Michael, and I am from a distant continent."

"Hello, your Dazhuo words are good."

"Because I liked it when I came here, I learned fast."

"Do you have a crush on our cloth? Let me introduce you to it. ”

"It's all good-looking, it's all beautiful."

"Thank you for the compliment. Every piece of cloth in our family is carefully selected by me and sold only to those who are destined. In addition, the price is clearly marked. ”

"Actually, I want to ask, do you need someone here?"

"You mean, you want to help sell the cloth?"

"You're absolutely right."

"I'm afraid I can't afford to hire you."

"I just need a place to stay, and I have a bowl of porridge for three meals a day."

Bai Yun remembered that a helper had left not long ago, and now he just needed a man to do some heavy work of transportation, but he remembered that he didn't know him, in case he was a liar or a lazy person, there would be an extra oil bottle.

"You can consider it, but the probationary period is one month."

"What kind of chess is the probationary period?"

"The probation period is not chess, it means that you will be here for a month, and then decide whether you can stay or not after your performance."

Baiyun slowed down his speech, and his gesture changed from drooping to clasping his hands crossed. In Michael's opinion, her expressions and gestures are sincere, kind. This strengthened his determination to stay.

"Great, great."

Michael happily picked up Baiyun and spun in circles.

"Michael, let me go."

"Oh. Oh. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so happy. ”

"My name is Bai Yun, I'll call me by my name in the future."

"I didn't expect you to be a shop manager at such a young age, it's really amazing."

"Don't say that, everybody's here to eat. Michael, hang our banner on the top shelf of the booth and fix it with nails on both sides. ”

Bai Yun gestured as he spoke, for fear that Michael would not understand, and then handed Michael a banner and tools. Michael expertly hung the banner.

The banner reads: Baiyun cloth shop, the best in the world. For the quality of her own cloth, she has enough self-credit on the words "the best in the world".

The words are written by Bai Yun himself, and the handwriting is beautiful, like floating clouds and flowing water, which is unforgettable.

It was only later that she learned that when they first met, Michael was not only attracted by her exquisite cloth, but also by her beautiful appearance.

In fact, Michael was fleeing his hometown and followed a wave of missionaries to China as a missionary, to Yangcheng. Although he had no worries about food and clothing at home, he was fed up with the rule of dogmatic formalism. For the sake of freedom, he chose to go far away.

However, it is very difficult for a true missionary to get involved in a dispute or a relationship. It is said that they all carry their own secrets and missions. Michael soon broke away from them and became an ordinary foreigner.

Michael brought two boxes of books, poems, novels, and play scripts from his hometown, and took them with him wherever he went.

"That's all your luggage, huh?"

"Yes, these are all my belongings, I can sleep anywhere, I can have them with me."

"Would you like to live in the shop?"

"I will, everything is up to you, my beautiful young lady."

With the problem of food and lodging solved, Michael was relieved and began to fiddle with his two boxes of books.

"Then I'll move the books in first."

"Okay, when the guests are gone, you take you to the place where you sleep."

"Do you live here?"

"My house is in an old house a hundred meters away."

"Is there anyone else in the family?"

Bai Yun hesitated for a moment and replied, "Hmm." Some. ”

Michael noticed the sad look on Baiyun's face, so he didn't ask much. Anyway, I have already settled here, and there are many opportunities to get to know this girl, so I am not in a hurry at this time.

The combination of Baiyun and Michael attracted a lot of attention, especially in the evening, and the turnover reached the usual amount of two or three days.

The girls are always looking for opportunities to get close to Michael, to look at his features, and to listen to his slightly lame language.

It is only after the moon creeps up to the treetops or the walls that the bazaar reverts to its proper appearance late at night.

"Yun, you go to rest first, I'll clean up these things."

"Okay, you look at the cloth being carried to the display shelves inside. The table and chair were to be placed in the corner, covered with a red cloth, and on them were to be placed with a pair of vases, the one on the ground. ”

Michael was pretty good at his job. Bai Yun carefully observed his performance. She is now recruiting for the second time and has a little more experience than before.

"Thank you, Michael. Look over there, that's where you sleep. ”

This place is diagonal to the vase. Michael looked up and could see wisteria flowers blooming in a vase.

At parting, Michael offered to send a white cloud. Baiyun refused.

"It's been so busy, you should rest early."

"Are you still satisfied with my performance, Miss?"

"Well, that's pretty good. Keep up the good work. ”

"I won't let you down."

After Michael's words, he stepped forward and kissed Baiyun's left cheek. The face of the white cloud was red like a lit candle.

"Throughout the afternoon and evening, Cui didn't show up, thanks to Michael. I don't know if her child is better. Bai Yun left the cloth shop thoughtfully.
