Chapter 112
Why is Fu Xunzhou here? As soon as this question came to Xiao Yue's mind, she heard...
Why is Fu Xunzhou here?
As soon as this question came to Xiao Yue's mind, he heard the people around him stop talking about the topic they were talking about.
"Hey, I'm dying of thirst, who's going to come with me and give me a bucket of water?"
"I want ice!"
“I’m coming too!”
"Then let's go in first." Su Xiaoxiao looked back at Xiao Lian who was a step slower, pulled her along and ran into the store, whispering, "Follow me and leave the space for these two!"
Xiao Lian looked at the people in the yard for a while before following suit.
How could Xiao Yue not know that Su Xiaoxiao and the others were trying to hide something? Even Fang Sanhong had a subtle expression and entered the store first.
Xiao Yue: “…”
What's the matter? ?
Xiao Yue didn't understand, but it was true that he and Fu Xunzhou were the only ones who knew each other best among those present.
He didn't go in, and she couldn't just leave him standing outside.
"Why are you here?" Xiao Yue approached and took off the lotus leaf on her head. She said in a natural tone, "I thought you were busy, so I'm going to bring you tonight's goodies."
"I know." Fu Xunzhou looked at her and said with a smile: "Golden Soup Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
Xiao Yue raised an eyebrow: "It spread so fast that even you know about it."
Fu Xunzhou didn't nod or say anything else, he just said: "No matter where you eat, it's not better than here."
The sudden softening of the tone echoes with the warm sunset at the moment.
Xiao Yue paused as she was fanning herself with the lotus leaf, looked away and continued to fan the air, letting the wind blow directly against her cheeks, passing by her ears and carrying a few strands of hair.
The air seems a little different.
"Is there anything you want to say?" Fu Xunzhou looked at her, and the fingers at his side curled slightly.
Xiao Yue couldn't fan any further, so she stopped and looked at him.
"you……"
"Um?"
"Are you..."
Fu Xunzhou held his breath slightly, and his heartbeat quickened slightly without anyone noticing.
And then the next second.
Xiao Yue: "Do you have an older brother or younger brother?"
Fu Xunzhou: “……?”
The rising temperature in the air froze and the wind was quiet for a few seconds.
Fu Xunzhou didn't even react for a moment. He paused for a moment and answered hesitantly: "Indeed, but..."
“It’s true!”
Xiao Yue interrupted him before he finished speaking, and heaved a sigh of relief, and laughed again: "I almost thought that the Lord of Liuyun City was you today!"
As they spoke, the Xiao Yue brothers patted his shoulders.
"Wow, you're from an important background. No wonder Duan Lin listens to you so much. He's actually the city lord's brother?"
Fu Xunzhou: “…”
Fu Xunzhou: "I don't..."
"Hmm?" Xiao Yue tilted her head and looked towards the kitchen, as if she heard something: "Here it comes, it really needs to be steamed for half an hour, let me do it!"
Xiao Yue left without looking back.
Fu Xunzhou: “?”
Wait a moment?
"you……"
Fu Xunzhou raised his hand, and the words were about to come out, but Xiao Yue's back revealed her eagerness to make Golden Soup Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, so he put his hand down.
wrong.
Fu Xunzhou stood in the yard, feeling a little confused.
Originally, he thought that the time had come. It would not be good for either of them to keep the identity of the Lord of Liuyun City hidden any longer.
Today Fu Xunzhou planned to take this opportunity to confess. He had just finished his busy work for a while, and it was time to make things clear as well.
Whether it was leaving without saying goodbye or concealing his identity, Fu Xunzhou had no intention of hiding it anymore.
result……
The conversation ended hastily halfway through, and it was ended unilaterally.
How could she misunderstand like this?
He has an older brother or younger brother, and the special pupils will only be displayed in blood, so...
Xiao Yue never thought deeply about it at all?
Until this moment, Fu Xunzhou still felt it was unbelievable, because he felt that he had been exposed enough when he was in Linxiping.
Whether it's that the signature dish can only be eaten by her, or that she can see the eyes behind the mask...
Fu Xunzhou felt helpless, followed by a sense of uneasiness.
Could it be that Xiao Yue really had never thought about these things and was so sure that he had never lied to her?
So...is it still appropriate to continue confessing?
Fu Xunzhou did not take this matter lightly. The nature of this matter was indeed serious. Although it was not intentional at the beginning, what if she was really angry?
Fu Xunzhou fell into deep thought.
In the kitchen.
There was still some broth left from the morning, so Xiao Yue only needed to make some golden soup and prepare the ingredients.
Fang Sanhong helped her and saw that she moved slowly the whole time. It didn't seem like she was doing it slowly because she was tired, but rather she was doing it on purpose.
"What's wrong?" Fang Sanhong raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
Xiao Yue didn't even raise her head: "It's okay. By the way, accompany me outside to choose some nice stew pots later."
Fang Sanhong looked even weirder.
Now the cabinets for storing bowls and plates are basically placed in the yard, not far away. Besides, they eat by themselves, so it doesn’t matter what patterns they use.
Sometimes we would use a large bowl or a large plate and just eat it.
Although Golden Soup Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is a bit special, it’s not something that needs to be specially selected, right?
Fang Sanhong turned to look at the people in the yard with a meaningful expression.
…
Golden Soup Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is indeed complicated. While it is being steamed, Xiao Yue asked Fang Sanhong and Lu Ran to add a few more dishes to the dinner.
When it was getting dark, Duan Lin and Cheng Min came together.
The food had just been prepared, and Xiao Lian saw the two of them as if they were at her home. As soon as they came in, they started to run around, moving stools, carrying bowls and chopsticks, and serving water...
Xiao Lian hurriedly joined in and found that the yard became even more lively.
Especially the sound of Su Xiaoxiao and Cheng Min bickering made everyone laugh.
When Xiao Yue came out, dinner was already prepared and he asked Xiao Lian to sit next to him.
The highlight of the evening was of course the Golden Soup Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. A slightly larger stewing pot was used, and three servings were steamed and placed in the middle.
Everyone took a small bowl and exclaimed in amazement when the delicious taste took their first bite.
“This is the best dish in the world!”
“It’s delicious!”
"Let me eat three bowls!"
The dinner table became lively.
When they were almost done eating, Xiao Yue said, "Xiao Xiao, Cheng Min is here, why don't you ask about the shop so that Xiao Lian can feel at ease."
“Yes!”
Su Xiaoxiao slapped her head and turned to ask Cheng Min.
Cheng Min was confused at first, but understood after listening: "The shop has not been transferred yet, but it just so happens that this matter is under the management of Duan Lin."
Duan Lin on the side looked over.
Xiao Lian began to ask actively, looking a little nervous.
Xiao Yue joined in and helped her talk, without looking away the whole time, as if he didn't notice for a moment that Fu Xunzhou was hesitant to speak.
After this matter was said, the shop was taken over by Xiao Lian as expected. Duan Lin made the final decision and had someone deliver the keys and the title deed the next morning.
Xiao Yue nodded and continued, "Then Xiao Lian, why don't you stay here tonight? It's just right for us to go to the opposite side tomorrow to have a look?"
Xiao Lian was a little hesitant.
Xiao Yue simply stood up and took her to visit the room next to his own, which seemed to be quite busy.
Dinner was just over, so Fu Xunzhou could only help clean up the dishes with Duan Lin and Cheng Min.
Until he left, he didn't even have the chance to talk to Xiao Yue alone.
In addition, Su Xiaoxiao and Sun Wen at the dinner table planned to go out of town for a trip tomorrow, so Xiao Yue was probably not in the store either.
Fu Xunzhou: “…”
Very good, now the anxiety has become the link that breaks the anger in one go.
As he watched everyone leave, Xiao Yue waved with an especially sincere gesture.
Turning around, she saw Xiao Lian's slightly puzzled expression.
Xiao Yue coughed lightly and said, "I'll accompany you to the other side tomorrow morning. Do you want to go play with Xiao Xiao and the others afterwards?"
"Sister Xiaoxiao and I..." Xiao Lian heard the hidden meaning and asked in surprise, "Sister, aren't you going?"
"No."
Xiao Yue sighed.
Not only did she not go, she even stayed awake until dawn tonight.
The next day, Xiao Lian was surprised to see the dark circles under her eyes and quickly taught her a hot compress method.
"It will be more comfortable this way!"
"Thank you, Xiao Lian."
Xiao Yue was out of breath, and the little orange in his arms also meowed weakly.
Xiao Lian looked down and found that its fur was all messy, as if it had been ravaged by someone all night.
Xiao Lian: “…”
What's going on?
Not long after, the keys were delivered, and Xiao Yue accompanied Xiao Lian to look at the shop opposite.
The plaque that first indicated a tea stall and then a noodle shop had long been removed by government officials, and the place looked a bit messy.
Xiao Lian opened the door and the dust danced in the early morning light.
Xiao Yue coughed lightly and covered his mouth and nose.
Xiao Lian was very happy. She walked around the house and ran to her excitedly.
"I will have my own shop in the future! I can make money and buy clothes and jewelry that I like. I will also have a kitten in the future!"
Xiao Yue nodded with a smile in her eyes: "Just call it Xiao Lian Tang Shui."
“That’s right!”
After looking around the shop, Xiao Yue went back to the store alone.
Xiao Lian, who was hesitant about whether to go out with Su Xiaoxiao and the others, decided not to go. She wanted to stay in the store to clean, buy some daily necessities, and plan to live in the store.
Xiao Yue wanted to help, but she declined.
When she returned to the store, Su Xiaoxiao and others were preparing food, drinks and entertainment. When they saw her, they asked.
"Sister Xiao, you really aren't going?"
"Go ahead!"
“What fun it is to play together!”
Xiao Yue was very determined: "I want to lie in bed and be a lazy person with an empty mind all day long."
Then she really lay there for a whole day. The store was quiet and no one knew what was going on in a person's mind when he or she was alone.
Xiaoju was held in her arms, looking as if he had lost all hope in life.
——
The two-day rest period passed in the blink of an eye.
Everyone was having fun, they just relaxed and had fun when it was time to play, not thinking about too many things that needed to worry about, even if the event was about to start the next day.
The night before, Xiao Yue gathered everyone together and briefly explained the precautions.
They all knew that nowadays, new customers who had never been to the city before were almost in stark contrast to the old customers.
This event attracted this group of people, so success was expected. What needed to be paid attention to was adding dishes, collecting bowls and adding ingredients in a timely manner.
Of course, Fang Sanhong and Lu Ran are also very important. There will inevitably be new customers asking questions, and they all need to be answered in a timely manner.
"I've prepared the throat-soothing tea for you." At the end, Xiao Yue laughed, "Anyway, everyone will have to work harder tomorrow!"
The atmosphere relaxed.
Fang Sanhong patted her shoulder and said, "It's okay. Fu Xunzhou will definitely come to help tomorrow. Xiaoxiao said Cheng Min will also come. Are you afraid that you can't handle so many people?"
Xiao Yue responded vaguely and continued to add the rest of the information, including the limited new products available on the day of the event.
"This is different from the past. All new customers can pick it up. Sometimes there are too many people at the fixed pick-up point, and they may go to the seat to wait. Everyone must make sure to deliver it to them, one for each person, and don't mix it up."
Xiao Yue divided each person into areas of responsibility to avoid making the wrong deliveries.
Everyone responded.
Finally, everyone looked at several large basins in the yard. There were water in the basins, and in the water there were red and black creatures with tentacles.
Sun Wen rubbed her arms, but when she thought about how it would taste tonight, she started to feel hungry again.
Before leaving, Xiao Yue learned a piece of good news.
Fang Sanhong: "We heard today when we went out for fun that Zhang Feiyun has successfully given birth to a girl, and she was born on the day of Zhihuai Festival."
"real!"
Xiao Yue was beaming with joy, not to mention how happy she was for Zhang Feiyun.
No wonder I haven’t seen her these few days. It turns out she has great news!
However, the store will be busy in the next few days, so Xiao Yue thought that after they were done with the work, they would prepare some things for Zhang Feiyun and go visit him together.
"good!"
