Chapter 106 Shangguan Hong
"Then drive over there."
"good."
When they arrived at the hotel entrance, she left her two bodyguards who were also drivers in charge of guarding the two people who had been fed drugs. These two bodyguards had followed her to Panzhou to capture Nitu, to disaster areas, and to catch spies, and had become one of her important personnel.
As for Xiao Chen, he came back once when the spy was transferred back to Lingcheng last time, and then returned to Dong Province.
She, Haruyu, and Chisato walked into the hotel.
As soon as I sat down, I heard the waiter inside yelling: "Her parents were washed away by the flood. Why is she calling for parents? I live next door to her and I am scared to death. Do you know what is even scarier?"
"What is it?" Ye Qinglan asked with a smile, and then said, "Can this lady bring us the menu, please?"
When the waiter saw that the visitors were a man, a woman, and a person who looked neither man nor woman, some doubt flashed in his eyes.
But they soon put on a smile. They just reopened the restaurant two days ago, but only two or three people came to eat there in a day. All the usual familiar customers didn't come anymore. Some couldn't afford to eat there, and some could never eat there again.
It was not easy to get a few customers, so she had to be more welcoming and quickly handed over the menu:
"Here's the menu. What would you like to eat? The food here is shipped from other counties in the middle of the night. It's very fresh. We have shrimp, meat, fish, and eggs. It's just that it may be a little more expensive than before. I'm really sorry."
"The shipping cost has gone up." Ye Qinglan said with a smile, "We want prawns, braised pork, and small rapeseed. We want two servings of everything we ordered."
Then he handed the menu to Chisato.
"Order whatever you want."
Chisato took it and started reading it together with Haruyu.
Ye Qinglan continued to ask: "Is there anything more frightening?"
The waiter continued:
"Oh yeah, what's even more frightening about my neighbor is that one day I climbed over her wall and found her eating alone at a table, cooking six or seven dishes, with five pairs of empty bowls and chopsticks on the table. While eating, she said, 'Mom, I made your favorite egg yolk tofu today,' and then she scooped a spoonful into the empty bowl next to her.
Then he said, "Grandma, this is the water chestnut you like. Only our water chestnuts were not affected by the disaster. The others were all washed away. What do you mean? There is no water chestnut to eat down there? That doesn't matter. Please wait a little longer. When all the troops have left, I will buy some white paper and tie a few water chestnuts together and send them to you."
The waiter is still trembling with fear when talking about it now: "Comrade, listen to this, isn't it scary? Who would be like this, right?"
Ye Qinglan nodded.
"It's a bit scary." Then he asked curiously, "Can she see ghosts? Just like the opera singer said she has yin and yang eyes, is that true?"
The waiter shook his head: "I haven't heard of that, but it's pretty scary anyway."
Chisato had already ordered the dishes by this time.
Ask: "Did they catch you peeking and deliberately say those words to scare you?"
"That's impossible." The waiter waved his hand and retorted:
"Since the flood receded, her family has been like this every day. I wasn't the only one who noticed this strange phenomenon. My father and mother also noticed it. My mother suspected that she had gone to find someone to call back the souls. This disaster was a natural disaster. All the people died in vain. Many of them didn't even have time to leave their last words. She called back the souls and asked about their last words."
Ye Qinglan and Qianli looked at each other and then looked at Chunyu at the same time.
Chunyu understood, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and listened.
The waiter took one look at him and couldn't help asking, "Is this a gay or a lesbian?"
Chunyu's face turned dark and asked, "Are you blind?"
Qianli smiled: "Comrade. These are the dishes you must order."
"Then why do you have long hair?"
The waiter took the menu and muttered something.
Chunyu lived in the mountains for several years. When his hair grew long, he would cut it with a knife. Sometimes he thought it was too troublesome and just didn't cut it. On the day he was brought back by Qianli, his hair had grown to his shoulders.
I have been running around with Ye Qinglan for the past two months and haven’t thought about getting my hair cut. Now it has grown to my chest.
Qianli looked at his long hair and felt it was an eyesore: "Go get your hair cut when you return to Lingcheng."
"No, I want to keep my hair long in the future. Long hair makes my head feel comfortable and can also cover my face."
It may also be a psychological effect, I always feel that it can block out noise.
Lao Qian got him a pair of noise-reducing earmuffs, which are a little better, but can't completely block out the noise. Besides, that thing can only be worn at night when sleeping, and it will hurt his ears if he wears it for a long time.
"I want that house."
The words were spoken to Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan: “Sure.”
He wanted a safe house.
The trip to the disaster area was enough to prove Chun Yu’s talent. As long as the request was not excessive, he would agree to it for people with outstanding talents.
"I still want to improve my skills. I need a top coach."
"OK."
“I want to learn a foreign language.”
"Can."
"want to……"
Perhaps seeing that Ye Qinglan was in a good mood, he made a series of requests.
The more you talk about it, the more it gets distorted.
“…”
"I still want a wife. I think the lesbian I met last time is pretty good."
"Shut up!" Seeing that he was going on and on, Qianli continued to nag:
"People look down on you. Besides, you are still young and you don't want to improve yourself and work hard, so why do you want to marry a wife? Look at yourself now, do you have money? Do you have a house? Are you good-looking... You are penniless and you still want to marry a wife. Isn't that ridiculous?"
Chun Yu: “…”
This con man is boring. He can't even joke around.
After they chatted for a while, the waiter came with the dishes.
Chisato took one of them outside to the car.
After finishing their meal, they headed to the neighbor's home mentioned by the waiter.
This is a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with short hair, thin figure, sallow complexion, and she keeps mumbling.
"I really don't understand. We are in such a bad situation, why are some things still sold at such a high price? Just this piece of white paper used to cost only a few cents, but now it costs two yuan. Grandma, please think carefully and think about whether there are any gold ingots or ancient coins hidden in the corners of our house so that I can find them and exchange them for a few dollars."
"No? Really? Grandma, are you almost forgetting about the world? Mom, think about it too."
“…”
After a while, she said, "Are you serious? Are there really silver dollars?"
"Okay, I'll go look for them tonight." The girl started crying again, "How come Dad and Grandpa left so suddenly? I didn't even get to see them for the last time."
“…”
After a while, she said, "Don't worry, little brother. I'll finish tying the wild rice stems for grandma first and then I'll tying the rabbits for you. I'll then tying a few ponies and sedan chairs for you. You have to listen to your mother down there."
“…”
Qianli asked: "Should we go in now, or what?"
"Wait and see when she goes out to look for the silver. Let's follow her and see if she can find it."
Chisato nodded.
Then several people got in the car and left.
