Chapter 32 Why is there still meat?
When I woke up again, it was already daybreak.
Xu Qiuqian stretched and went downstairs.
Yun Yi was cleaning. When he saw her, his eyes lit up: "You're awake. I'll go get you some porridge."
The porridge was served on the table and Xu Qiuqian sat down.
I glanced at the clean, shiny wooden floor.
"You don't have to clean every day, just every few days. There's no dust, and not many people come every day. Aren't you tired of cleaning like this every day?"
She felt tired just looking at it.
He was skinny and small. Although he was fifteen years old, he looked like twelve or thirteen. If other people saw him, they would think that she was abusing him.
Yun Yi said embarrassedly: "If I don't clean, I don't know what to do. I can't just sit in the store and be in a daze every day."
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian thought that it would be better to put the matter of buying books on the agenda as soon as possible. At such a young age, it is better to read books and learn knowledge than to just clean the room, cook and wash dishes every day.
I drank some porridge and ate some pickles.
"Did anyone come yesterday?"
Yun Yi paused for a moment, then said nonchalantly: "There was someone, but he was from the Zhao family. He wanted to come in, but was blocked by the sign at the door, so he left."
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
This signboard is quite useful, and it was worth the effort she put in to buy it.
"You will still be in charge of the store later."
She wanted to see if she could practice after drinking a bottle of Spiritual Vein Repairing Fluid.
Yun Yi looked hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
"I-I know I shouldn't ask, but I really want to know."
Xu Qiuqian was puzzled: "What do you want to know?"
"Manager, are you sick? Yesterday I heard your voice of enduring pain coming from the second floor, but I was afraid you would be unhappy, so I didn't dare to go up and ask..."
"I thought you wanted to know something."
If she were asked where the goods came from, she would probably have to think about how to make an excuse.
But when asked this, Xu Qiuqian did not deliberately hide it. She did not say it before because Yun Yi did not ask, and she also felt there was no need to mention it deliberately.
"Something happened before, which caused my spiritual vein to be damaged. Yesterday I tried to repair it."
Yun Yi was stunned.
"Your spiritual vein is damaged? But you can clearly take things out of the storage bag..."
"Special means were used."
After a while, Yun Yi came back to his senses.
At this time, Xu Qiuqian finished his porridge, and Chen Wei came. He walked into the store familiarly and sat down.
"Sister Qiu Qian! I just finished my meal!"
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
Chen Wei looked at Yun Yi who was clearing the dishes and said, "Where is the kid with the rotten face? Why can't I see him?"
Hearing this, Yun Yi paused.
Chen Wei didn't wait for Xu Qiuqian to speak, and continued: "I said it, why would Sister Qiuqian let such a scary face work as a clerk? Fortunately, he left. Sister Qiuqian, you don't know, when I saw his face that day, I almost vomited the overnight meal..."
"Xiao Wei!" Xu Qiuqian stopped Chen Wei from continuing speaking in a cold voice.
Chen Wei was confused: "Ah? What for?"
Xu Qiuqian said to Yun Yi who was frozen in place, "Go wash the dishes."
Yun Yi hummed softly, picked up the bowl and walked away with his head down, but did not go to wash the dishes. Instead, he hid in an invisible corner, staring at Xu Qiuqian and Chen Wei with an expressionless face.
"Sister Qiu Qian, why are you angry? What did I say wrong?" Chen Wei looked puzzled.
"You're not wrong?" Xu Qiuqian said helplessly, "The person you're talking about is Xiao Yi."
"What? You said that kid just now is the ugly one I mentioned before..."
Seeing Xu Qiuqian looking over, Chen Wei quickly shut up, then touched his nose, a little embarrassed: "I didn't know it was him, how come his face healed so quickly?"
"I bought him a disguise mask."
"No wonder." Chen Wei suddenly realized.
Thinking of Yun Yimin's inferiority complex, Xu Qiuqian sighed: "You should apologize to him later."
Chen Wei stood up suddenly: "Why! Why should I apologize to him!"
"Just because you said he was scary, think about it yourself, would you be happy if someone said that to you?"
"I didn't know it was him..." Chen Wei muttered softly, then waved his hand, "Alright, alright, I'll apologize to him later!"
It would be so embarrassing to ask him, the son of the Chen family, to apologize to a little kid.
He glanced carefully at Xu Qiuqian, who had a frown on his face, and couldn't help but pout.
Forget it, for Sister Qiu Qian's sake, he will be generous for once.
So when Yun Yi came over, Chen Wei said reluctantly: "Um, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you just now."
Yun Yi was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little at a loss.
"I...I'm fine."
"Sister Qiu Qian, you saw it, he said he was fine."
Xu Qiuqian was speechless. If someone had something wrong, would they show it in person like Chen Wei, that silly boy?
"Xiao Wei, there probably won't be many people in the store these days, so please don't come. Could you please help me find out what the other stores think of you? Also, buy me some books, any books, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Wei patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, Sister Qiu Qian, I will definitely find out everything for you. I have plenty of books at home, and I will have the servants deliver them to you later."
"Okay, thank you then."
Then he left with his men in a mighty manner.
After everyone left, Xu Qiuqian and Yun Yi were the only ones left in the store.
Xu Qiuqian raised her hand and patted Yun Yi's head, explaining: "Xiao Yi, don't take Xiao Wei's words to heart. He is just like that. He doesn't know what he can and can't say. You also know that he is the young master of the Chen family. He has been spoiled since he was a child. He doesn't understand these things, so it is inevitable that he speaks without restraint."
"I know, you don't need to comfort me, I'm not angry."
"You're really not angry?"
"No."
Xu Qiuqian looked carefully at the expression on Yun Yi's face and found that Yun Yi was indeed not angry, and was still the same as before, so she felt relieved.
"Then I'll go upstairs."
Watching Xu Qiuqian leave, Yun Yi seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
After going upstairs, Xu Qiuqian sat down cross-legged.
She has the memories of her original body, so she knows how to draw energy into the body and how to practice.
Close your eyes, slow down your breathing, sink the Qi into your Dantian, circulate your mind, and you will feel a faint burning sensation in your lower abdomen.
She practiced the whole day until Yun Yi called her downstairs to have dinner, and Xu Qiuqian opened her eyes.
Expected failure.
It turns out that one cannot practice without completely repairing the spiritual vein.
Five more bottles of Spirit Vein Repair Fluid are needed to completely repair it, which means 50,000 points are needed. Feng Qinghe's order is really a pleasant surprise. Judging from the current situation of the store, let alone 50,000 points, even the next bottle of Spirit Vein Repair Fluid will probably take a long time to wait.
Sighed.
Forget it, take your time.
When Xu Qiuqian came to the dining table and looked at the food on it, she was surprised.
"Why is there still meat?"
Yun Yi said embarrassedly: "When I went shopping with you before, I bought some spirit beast meat while you were not paying attention. Please try it and see if it tastes good."
Unexpectedly, Yun Yi had not eaten the spiritual beast meat he had hidden yet. Xu Qiuqian picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
The next moment, spit it out.
“Is it unpalatable?”
Xu Qiuqian frowned: "It's not a question of whether it tastes bad."
The meat was too bloody and I couldn't eat it.
"But I've been doing this for a long time, so you can just try a few more bites."
Hearing this, Xu Qiuqian looked at Yun Yi. Yun Yi put his hands behind his back and lowered his head in panic. Xu Qiuqian felt even more confused. With Yun Yi's personality, he would not ask her to eat a few more bites just because he took a long time to cook.
In a flash, she thought of something, grabbed Yun Yi's hands behind his back, and lifted her sleeves.
The thin arm was wrapped in cloth and bleeding.
