Volume 1 The Fox Demon Crying Grave Chapter 49: It's raining heavily
Xu Ye said to Song Wanying: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay for a long time, it's really not early this day, it's time to rest." ”
But after Xu Ye followed Song Wanying to the bedroom on the second floor, he immediately held back the fantasies and surprises just now.
At the same time, I also understood why in the face of such a mesmerizing scene, my heart could not react like an old monk.
The stand-in man who feels himself has actually done such a shameful and hateful state.
It's been three years, and I've been married for three years, and I'm still sleeping in separate beds.
It's husband and wife, this name is a brother, no, it's not even a brother, it's a sister at all.
Xu Ye was helpless, desperately looking at the single bed next to the double bed in front of him, and kept cursing in his heart that the stand-in was not a man, not even a woman.
But there is no way, since his stand-in is not a man, then he must restrain himself, and he can't expose his identity because of this matter.
Xu Ye subconsciously swallowed his saliva, curled up and lay on the single bed next to him.
But just after Xu Ye had just laid down, Song Wanying came over and looked at Xu Ye and said, "Get up." ”
Xu Ye was a little puzzled: "Huh? ”
"You're not feeling well, go sleep there today." Song Wanying pointed to the soft double bed.
Xu Ye didn't refuse, nodded and got up silently to get on the soft double bed.
The two didn't communicate much more, and after Song Wanying turned off the lights, the world fell into darkness again.
Xu Ye took two deep breaths, completely suppressed the restlessness in his heart, closed his eyes and slowly fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Xu Ye was woken up by Song Wanying, and after getting up, Xu Ye simply cleaned up and left Song's house.
Not only because of the farce at dinner yesterday, but also because Xu Ye was sure that he would have to go around Song Wanying in the future.
That kind of heart-piercing pain, Xu Ye didn't want to try it again.
After leaving the Song family, Xu Ye found a place to eat a bowl of oily noodles, and returned to the Chinese medicine hall.
After cleaning up briefly, Xu Ye thought about whether to find a way to rectify the dilapidated medical hall left by Jiang Xia, after all, this place will be his own territory in the future, and he can't continue to lose money like this.
I definitely won't do Jiang Xia's crooked business, but I definitely need money for my future life.
Except for the medical hall in front of him, which looks like there is no business, Xu Ye really can't think of other good ways to make money for the time being.
There's no way, so you can only start from this medical center.
After making up his mind, Xu Ye went back and forth in the store three or four times, but he didn't come up with a rectification plan.
It seems that he is really not a material for doing business.
In the end, Xu Ye could only retreat to the next best thing, thinking about whether to change the name of the store.
But looking at the three words "taste the herbs", Xu Ye felt that it was not necessary, these three words seemed to be really in line with the temperament of this broken medical hall.
At least it is much stronger than Chuiyun Medical Center, at least people still have a close connection with traditional Chinese medicine.
In the end, there was really nothing to rectify, so Xu Ye had to give up, only added an extra plaque at the door, and wrote a riddle poem.
"The natural spirit grass has no roots and stems, and it is not in the mountains or on the shore."
"The origin is that the flying floc chases the east wind, and the cold stalk is green and green floating on the water."
After Xu Ye hung up the plaque, he lay back on the chair behind the counter, holding his mobile phone and starting to be in a daze.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, it's that in this unfamiliar place, Xu Ye doesn't know what he should do.
In the past, although the old Xu Tou was a little annoying in the Chuiyun Medical Hall, he really wouldn't let Xu Ye have such a quiet moment.
Even if he has nothing to do, Xu Shuntian will find something for Xu Ye to do.
When it came to being alone, Xu Ye was a little idle.
Lying behind the counter, Xu Ye was in a daze until more than 8:30 p.m.
My stomach began to feel a little hungry, and Xu Ye was ready to get up to get some food.
Suddenly, at this time, an electric car suddenly stopped at the door of the medical hall.
A middle-aged man in a mud-stained camouflage uniform, holding a blue hard hat in his hand, pushed open the door and walked in.
The middle-aged man walked up to Xu Ye, looked at Xu Ye and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Hello that little brother, my electric car is broken, it may rain in a while, can I rest here with you." I can give money. ”
Xu Ye didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Yes, just sit down." ”
After hearing Xu Ye's promise, the middle-aged man immediately bowed to Xu Ye and said, "Thank you, little brother, thank you, thank you." ”
Xu Ye hurriedly stepped forward and held the middle-aged man's arm and said, "No need to do this, I will lose my life." ”
After the middle-aged man was helped up, he sat down at the table next to him, holding a brand-new Journey to the West in his hand and looking at it.
Xu Ye asked with some curiosity: "Brother likes to watch Journey to the West?" ”
The middle-aged man's dark face flushed with a touch of red and said: "I don't understand, this is for my kid, he is in the second grade this year, we can't read and let our son be the same as us." ”
Xu Ye nodded silently and said, "That's the truth." ”
Xu Ye didn't disturb the middle-aged man reading anymore, sat back behind the counter, and swiped his phone comfortably.
Not long after, it rained heavily outside, and crackling raindrops fell to the ground like pearls falling on jade plates.
"Oh, it's raining heavily." Xu Ye stood up and looked out the window.
"yes, Nancheng hasn't seen such heavy rain in a long time." The middle-aged man also turned his head to look out the window that had fallen into the night and said.
"What construction site does my brother work on?" Xu Ye suddenly asked the middle-aged man.
From the middle-aged man's hands, as well as the hard hat in his hand, and the clothes, Xu Ye knew that he was definitely not wrong to be a migrant worker.
The middle-aged man pointed to the hat in his hand and said: "The third bureau, recently cleaned up the road on the west side of the Third Ring Road, didn't you step on the viaduct a few days ago, little brother, you should have heard of it." ”
Xu Ye nodded and continued to ask, "Brother is not a local, right?" ”
After the middle-aged man nodded, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed one to Xu Ye and said, "It's not a good cigarette, little brother, don't dislike it." ”
Xu Ye didn't speak, took the cigarette and took a puff directly.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man grinned and pointed to himself: "Little brother, you guessed right, I am indeed not local, my hometown is further north, we are poor over there, and we have no choice but to come to Nancheng to sell our strength, and there are several people at home who point to me to eat." ”
"Who else is in the house?" Xu Ye took another puff of cigarette and slowly exhaled it, looking out the window at the rainy night that was getting heavier and heavier.
"My daughter-in-law and two children, and a mother who is almost eighty." The middle-aged man said.
"How old are the two children?" Xu Ye continued to ask.
"The eldest is a boy at the age of ten, and the youngest is only five years old and a girl." When the middle-aged man said this, his face was obviously filled with a happy smile, and he didn't feel stressed at all.
"The child is still so young, can you rest assured that you just come out like this?" Xu Ye withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Alas, I don't have to worry about it, I don't have much culture, except for this strength to exchange a few dollars, there is no other way." The middle-aged man sighed as he spoke.
Xu Ye didn't say anything more, smoked the last puff of cigarette, extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand in the ashtray on the table, got up and walked behind the counter again.
It's just that when he got up and walked past the middle-aged man, he patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said secretly with a business that he could only hear: "Disasters always pick on the hard-working!" ”
The torrential rain continued to fall, and Xu Ye was lying bored behind the counter, still scrolling on his mobile phone.
The middle-aged man sat at the square table in front of the counter, looking at the Journey to the West in his hand.
It looked like an elementary school student who was taking a serious lesson.
He was imagining, imagining that the kid in his family would be like this in class.
Time is always passing slowly and inadvertently.
When Xu Ye was a little bored with his mobile phone, he looked up at the wall clock on the wall, and found that it was already half past ten in the evening.
At this moment, the door of the Chinese medicine hall was opened from the outside again, and there were three middle-aged men like the previous one, dressed in camouflage uniforms full of mud spots, holding the same hard hats in their hands, and they were also in their thirties and forties.
The only difference is that they have a poncho draped over them, but the poncho doesn't seem to do much.
All three of them were already soaking wet, dripping water all over their bodies.
After pushing the door open, the three did not dare to walk in rashly, but looked at the door with some restraint and trepidation.
"If you have something to do, just come in and talk about it." Xu Ye beckoned to the three middle-aged men.
After seeing Xu Ye beckoning, the three middle-aged men still didn't dare to step into the store, and still looked at Xu Ye and said: "Boss, we are workers cleaning the road from the Third Ring Road, because the rain is too heavy tonight, and the temporary shed we built has been washed down, so I want to borrow you here to take shelter from the rain, and we will leave when the rain is lighter, is it okay?" ”
After the middle of the three middle-aged men finished speaking, he was right
The middle-aged man on the side was afraid that Xu Ye would not agree, so he immediately added: "We can give money without delaying your business." ”
Xu Ye looked at the three middle-aged men and nodded, "Yes." ”
Seeing that Xu Ye nodded in agreement, the three middle-aged men immediately bowed to Xu Ye and thanked him, just like the middle-aged man before.
Seeing this, Xu Ye immediately refused: "You pay, I let you rest this is as it should be, don't be so polite." ”
After hearing Xu Xuye's words, the three middle-aged men blushed and said thank you again, and then began to take off the ponchos on their bodies.
Seeing this, they didn't say anything for a long time, but after they took off their ponchos, they were ready to start taking off their shoes.
This family made Xu Ye a little puzzled, looked at them and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
