Chapter 234 Two Ma Qi troops?
Ye Xiaomei's attention was not so focused on what Shang Zhen said. She heard it subconsciously. What he said was true, but she had no intention of buying any antiques at all. She would spend thousands of dollars to bring this thing home, but she couldn't eat or sleep with it.
"Look!" Shang Zhen tugged at Ye Xiaomei's floral sweatshirt and pointed at the black spot: "Isn't this jade pendant pretty?"
Ye Xiaomei then noticed that Shang Zhen was pointing at the green jade pendant with some Warring States red placed next to the "booger".
You know what, it’s quite pretty. The jade pendant has a cloud dragon pattern with a traditional Chinese character for “Fa” in the middle.
"You have to learn how to judge people. If you don't have any sales this month, you'll have to get out of here. I've taught you so many times. I can tell who's rich and who's poor at a glance. Why can't you learn it?"
Ye Xiaomei raised her eyes and looked over when she heard the voice.
Wang Juan pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly, clenched her hands in silence, and then lowered her head and said:
"I understand, Manager." She turned around and went upstairs.
Ye Xiaomei saw this and didn't know what to say. The last time she saw Wang Juan, she was setting up a stall at the county market, and now she has come to the city to work again.
"If you can't afford it, don't look at it. How are you going to compensate for breaking such a sharp edge?"
The store manager spoke directly, then poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip.
"Hey, you guys run the store and we can't even come in and take a look." Shang really couldn't stand any loss.
If Ye Xiaomei hadn't held her back, the helmet she was holding would have smashed over.
"Shang Zhen, forget it." Ye Xiaomei pointed at the black lump and said:
"Excuse me, what exactly is this thing?" Ye Xiaomei said, pointing at the "booger" the size of a thumb.
"We don't serve everyone."
The store manager covered the teacup and glared at Ye Xiaomei, wishing he could flick her out like eye boogers:
"Let's take a look at the price first."
It’s not that Ye Xiaomei didn’t look at it. The selling price was as high as 20,000.
This amount of money can buy a nice house nowadays, isn't this robbery?
"What are you showing off for!" Shang Zhen waved his helmet and gestured: "Fuck!"
With that, the two turned around and left.
"Mr. Li, please take care..."
"Why are you pulling me?" Shang Zhen, who was being pulled by Ye Xiaomei, couldn't help but grumble in a low voice: "Didn't you see that store manager? His eyes are not eyes and his nose is not a nose."
Ye Xiaomei was very realistic: "We really don't have any money, we'll come back when we have more money."
As she spoke, Ye Xiaomei had already pulled Shang Zhen across the street.
Shang Zhen was helpless: "You look like someone who is easy to bully. Get in the car. Where are you going?"
Ye Xiaomei was just about to get on the motorcycle, her eyes fixed on the other side of the road.
He was wearing a Dick's jeans suit, with a cigarette in his mouth. He looked about 1.9 meters tall, and the muscular arms looked very impressive.
"Ma Qi's army!"
Ye Xiaomei suddenly shouted.
Unexpectedly, neither Ma Qijun nor the girl in the red dress who was holding his hand turned around.
“Fuck!”
Shang Zhen was shocked after just one look and quickly got out of the car: "That's your husband."
Ye Xiaomei bit her lips in silence, not even noticing that her fingernails had pierced her palms. Her eyes stared straight in the direction where Ma Qijun had left.
That familiar figure, just with different clothes and attire.
"Xiao Mei?" Shang Zhen poked Ye Xiaomei and found that she seemed unable to move.
"Ma Qijun, you are so ungrateful, you scumbag, stop right there..." Shang Zhen threw his helmet aside and ran after him.
Before Ye Xiaomei could be distracted, Shang Zhen had already caught up to the intersection and disappeared in a flash.
It took Ye Xiaomei a while to come back to her senses. She nervously and carefully took out her cell phone and dialed the familiar short code. She took a few breaths and waited for the other end to answer.
Soon, a familiar voice came from the other side, and Ye Xiaomei hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Where are you now?"
"I'm in the armed forces, what's wrong, Xiaomei?"
The voice over there was exceptionally calm. Ye Xiaomei did not rush to answer, but listened carefully to the background noise from the other side. Sure enough, the sound of gathering came from there.
It sounded like a drill for everyone to go out.
"Hello? I have to leave right away. It may not be convenient for me to contact you at any time in the next few days. Please take care of yourself and the children at home and wait for me to come back."
Ye Xiaomei suddenly came to her senses. What went wrong? Although the man just saw her from behind, he definitely wouldn't have made a mistake, not to mention that even Shang Zhen recognized her.
"Have you...have you been to the antique shop just now?" Ye Xiaomei asked subconsciously.
"I've been in the Armed Forces the whole time. What's wrong? Are you too tired lately?"
As soon as Ma Qijun's voice fell, someone shouted: Commander Ma, we're ready!
"Okay! Xiaomei won't say anything for now."
The person on the other end suddenly hung up the phone.
Ye Xiaomei was surprised. What was going on?
Soon, Shang Zhen came back panting. She was so tired that she lay on the motorcycle and gasped for breath:
"Damn it, he disappeared the second I turned around."
It seemed that she didn't catch up with him. Ye Xiaomei pointed at the motorcycle and said, "Why didn't you ride a bicycle to chase him just now?" If she had caught up with him, she would be able to see clearly whether the man was Ma Qijun or not.
Shang Zhen's pupils shrank: "Oh my god! That's right, why didn't I think of that? I was so anxious that I forgot about it. By the way, Xiao Mei, why aren't you angry at all? The relationship between your man and that woman is definitely not simple."
How could Ye Xiaomei not be angry? But this matter was too unbelievable. She really pulled Shang Zhen over and looked at her seriously:
"Shang Zhen, are you sure you saw it clearly? Are you not dazzled?"
"Xiao Mei, you are not stupid because of the shock, are you?" Shang Zhen looked Ye Xiao Mei up and down: "You have to accept the reality and don't let yourself get hurt."
Ye Xiaomei couldn't help but frown. Shang Zhen didn't look like he was lying, but Ma Qijun was clearly in the armed forces.
How could he run from this moment to the armed forces department ten miles away in such a short time? It's impossible.
"Xiao Mei, if you are angry you can vent it on me, but don't scare me." Shang Zhen always felt that she was holding it in enough.
"It's okay." Ye Xiaomei shook her head and decided to wait until Ma Qijun returned from his mission before talking about it.
"Are you really okay?"
"It's really okay." Ye Xiaomei felt annoyed by her and urged her to take her back first.
These few days are the most fulfilling and peaceful days for Ye Xiaomei. Apart from taking care of the children and running the store, there is nothing else to do.
Until the day before Tang Buci was supposed to receive treatment, Li Yao drove the broken van to the door of the dumpling shop.
As soon as he got off the car, he put on a greasy smile, rubbed his hands and said politely: "Miss Ye, tomorrow is the day for our boss to get treated. Our boss specially asked me to come and remind you, you must not forget it."
Ye Xiaomei cleaned the table and wiped it twice: "It looks like your boss's legs are getting better?"
"That's right." Li Yao hurriedly agreed: "A miracle doctor is a miracle doctor. His treatment will definitely be extraordinary. It's just... it's just that the smell is too strong. I wonder if Miss Ye can help to plead for him when the time comes?"
Plead for mercy? Ye Xiaomei was stunned.
"You know, the smell is so damn terrible. Just find an excuse to get me out of here, like running an errand for you, or seeing a doctor will make you tired and hungry. Let me buy you your favorite food, and run as far as I can in Chaocheng. These reasons are all fine."
Ye Xiaomei looked at Li Yao as if she had eaten a fly. He was quite good at planning.
"What do you think?" Li Yao was so anxious that he circled around Ye Xiaomei when he saw that she didn't say anything.
Ye Xiaomei suddenly looked at Li Yao seriously: "You are so loyal, does your boss know?"
