Tick, tick. Outside, raindrops were dripping from the eaves, and the sound came into the somewhat empty restaurant.

Hearing that the other party was here to work, the shopkeeper seemed to be stunned, looking at the white-faced young man in front of him, with an unknown look on his face.

Then the corners of his mouth twitched, and he asked hesitantly, "Guest officer, are you serious?"

After that, his eyes still looked up and down at the previous person as if he were nothing.

"Of course. Li Si leaned his umbrella against the door, smiled as kindly as he could, and said, "Who of you is in charge, maybe let me ask him?"

"Tsk. The shopkeeper's face immediately darkened, and he reached forward and wrapped his arms around Li Si's shoulders and took him out of the door.

It wasn't until the two of them stood by the door that he pressed his hand against Li Si's neck and whispered with a stiff face.

"Li Si, what do you mean by this, are you causing any trouble again, tell me clearly. ”

"How could it be. At the door, the smile on Li Si's face paused, and then it became natural: "Am I the kind of person who likes to drag people into the water?"

Of course, he knew why the shopkeeper in front of him had this reaction, because he came this time, it can be said that he came to "take refuge" in this person.

This is Qianjialou, and he has an old acquaintance named Banjuxian who often appears here, but his whereabouts have always been uncertain.

But it seems that this time he was lucky, and he found the other party directly.

"You're really not that kind of person. The half-fairy looked at the hippie-smiling bastard with a depressed expression, pouted and said.

"But every time you unconsciously drag people into the water, tell me, what are you doing with me this time?"

"Didn't I say that?" Because his neck was pressed by the half-cut immortal, Li Si could only lean over his body and said helplessly.

"I'm here to find a job to do. ”

Half of the fairy's eyelids jumped, thinking that Li Si was still teasing him.

But seeing Li Si's serious look, he slowly frowned again.

"You're really not kidding me?"

"What am I teasing you for?" Li Si asked with a wry smile, is he so out of tune?

After looking at Li Si deeply, the half-immortal seemed to take a breath and asked with a straight expression.

"Then tell me, why did you suddenly think to come to me?"

Li Si was stunned for a moment, then pursed his mouth, and said with a self-deprecating hook on the corners of his mouth.

"Would you believe me if I said I was looking for a place to rest?"

Under the dripping eaves, the half-cut immortal did not rush to reply, but after a while, he nodded slowly, and said out loud with an uncertain expression.

"Okay, then I'll go and call the shopkeeper for you. ”

If Li Si had another reason, he might not have listened, but he understood this reason.

Because he has been adrift on this river and lake for too long, he knows that a person can't drift forever, so if Li Si really just wants to rest here, he doesn't mind.

"Still. Before entering the door, Banjuxian looked at Li Si again, stretched out a finger, and solemnly instructed.

"The people in this shop are nice, and you can't get them involved in your troubles. ”

"I see. Li Si replied with a wry smile, he really didn't understand why this person's vigilance was so heavy, and he didn't remember what trouble he had caused him.

The rain rustled behind him, and in front of the restaurant, Li Si took one last look back. In the distance was a small city of smoke and rain, quiet and hazy, thinking that this scenery was not bad, he turned his head and followed the half-immortal into the door.

······

Qianjialou is not a very large restaurant, there are three floors up and down, one hall and one courtyard inside and outside, although the layout is clean and comfortable, but it is definitely not luxurious.

I heard from Banjuxian that this restaurant has been operating poorly recently, and there are fewer and fewer customers. The shopkeeper has no choice, and he has resigned many people, and now he can only barely make a living by relying on a few people. He also heard about it, so he came back to help.

In this way, there are really few customers in this store, and when the shopkeeper gathers in the hall with a group of men, the store seems to have some popularity.

The shopkeeper is a woman in her early thirties, although she is already a little old, but it can also be said that she still has charm. Dressed in a woman's outfit, it can't be said to be glamorous, but it's not too plain. When she saw Li Si, she looked him up and down several times, nodded with satisfaction, thought about it, but did not speak.

There was only one person in the bookkeeper of the restaurant, and he looked to be about fifty years old. Dressed in scholar's clothes, with slightly white hair, and a simple strap tied behind his head. There is also a sheep's horn mustache on his chin, which looks like an old pedant. For Li Si, he didn't seem to want to pay much attention, just continued to hold the account book and make his own calculations.

The cook had recently quit one, and only a man of about thirty years of age remained, who looked quite athletic, with his hair not long and just hanging down to his shoulders. When he sat at the table, he was still holding a steamed bun in his hand, and his mouth had never been idle until now, so naturally he didn't have much time to speak.

Fortunately, in addition to the half-cut immortal, there is also a running hall in the store. It was a rather good-looking boy, at most thirteen or fourteen years old, with a somewhat thin build, translucent skin, and lovely eyebrows. It should not be developed yet, and if you don't look carefully, it's easy to be mistaken for a little girl. He seemed to be a little scared, sitting at the table and submissive, and did not dare to take the initiative to speak.

There was also a handyman in the store, a woman in her early twenties. It's not good-looking, but it's very attractive, and even if it's just wearing a coarse cloth dress, people can't help but want to take a few more looks. But I don't know why, when she saw Li Si, she kept sitting there and smirking, and she didn't know what she was laughing at, which made Li Si a little restless.

In the end, there was the half-cut immortal, a shopkeeper with a bit of sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, sitting next to Li Si and looking around at everyone's faces, looking a little nervous.

When everyone was seated, the shopkeeper finally spoke.

"I called everyone here this time, mainly to say one thing, Lao He's cousin came back from outside to beg for a living, and now he wants to find a job to do in the store, I want to hear what everyone means. ”

"Ah, yes. The half-cut immortal rubbed his hands, as if he was a little embarrassed, and said to everyone: "Trouble everyone." ”

Li Si, who was sitting on the side, also hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry to trouble everyone." ”

He blushed a little inexplicably, because the current situation had a feeling that he was looking for a job in his previous life, and it was still the kind that he had a relationship.

Thinking that he was already at this age, and he still had to do such a thing, the expression on his face became even more helpless.

"I'm supporting!" said the smirkling woman's eyes lit up and she raised her hand.

"I don't care. The cook nibbled on the steamed bun in his hand and replied indifferently.

"I don't care. "This is the somewhat timid boy.

"I'm against it. The old scholar raised his eyes from the ledger and said his position lightly.
