Chapter 63 She Called
Yun Man paused and turned to look at him.
Sheng Yize walked up, put his hands in front of him, and smiled awkwardly and obediently.
"It was my fault for what happened before. I'm sorry."
Yun Man sighed: "Your father has already told me about those things. It's all in the past. Besides, I have never blamed you."
Sheng Yize lowered his eyes: "Thank you."
Yun Man looked at him closely. From the moment he appeared in front of her, she had guessed why he came here.
Yun Man didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "There are a lot of customers, so Auntie will go and get busy first."
"Auntie Man!"
Yunman stopped walking.
"It may be presumptuous to ask you this directly, but I don't know who to ask."
Yunman turned around.
“Can you tell me…” Sheng Yize looked hurt, “the specific school where Sui Sui is studying abroad?”
He only knew that their group of exchange students were exchanging with French university students, and that they would be assigned to different universities with different majors.
There are many universities in France, and Sang Sui deliberately kept it a secret, so it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack for him to look for it.
Yun Man looked at him quietly for a few seconds and said, "Xiao Ze, since you can't get any information from other places, then you should understand that Sui Sui deliberately concealed it and didn't want you to know."
Sheng Yize lowered his eyes: "I know..."
"As her mother, I respect every decision she makes." Yun Man looked solemn, "I'm sorry, I won't tell you."
The woman nodded, turned around, and tilted her face slightly as if she had thought of something.
"You can't get the answer you want from me, so you should go back."
After saying that, she walked into the store.
Sheng Yize stood there with his shoulders slumped, his head lowered, and a look of frustration on his face.
I don't know how long he stood there before he slowly raised his head.
He took a deep breath and walked into the store.
This store is not very big, estimated to be about ten square meters. The main color of the interior decoration is warm white, and there are cartoon characters painted on the two side walls. The style is more like the two-dimensional style that young people like.
There are seven or eight tables in the front and the cashier counter and kitchen in the back.
There is a dessert menu hanging above the cash register. There are many varieties, each with high-definition pictures that look very appetizing.
I remember one Spring Festival when everyone was eating snacks and watching the Spring Festival Gala. While chatting, Sheng Guohua asked Yunman what he wanted to do after retirement.
At that time, grandma's condition was getting worse, and Yunman didn't think about it carefully in order to take good care of her.
Instead, Sang Sui, who was eating cherries nearby, said, "Mom, let's open a dessert shop!"
Everyone looked at her.
He also looked up.
The girl had cherries stuffed in her mouth, her cheeks puffed up like a little hamster.
At that moment, his heart trembled inexplicably, as if something was scratching it hard.
Yun Man smiled and snatched the cherries from her hand, with a helpless look on her face: "Kid, you like to drink sugar water, right?"
Sang Sui really likes to drink these.
She loves sweet food. When she was sick in the past, she felt that the medicine was too bitter to swallow. Yun Man knew her character and always prepared sweet things for her.
In addition, the weather in Jiangcheng is hot and humid, so the locals like to make soups and drink sweet soups. Various types of sweet soups are also one of the local specialties.
Sheng Yize stood at the door and looked around.
As the afternoon approached and the temperature rose, more and more customers came to the store to drink sweet soup.
Perhaps because the store had just opened, Yunman had not had time to hire waiters. At the moment, she was busy preparing sweet soup for the customers, and there was no one looking after the front desk.
Fortunately, the guests would automatically pay the bill and leave after finishing their drinks, but no one came to clean up the empty bowls on the table, so it looked a bit messy.
Sheng Yize bent down, took the initiative to stack up the empty bowls on the table one by one, and then moved them to the kitchen sink.
Seeing that Sheng Yize had not left yet, Yun Man was stunned. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw the empty bowl in his hand.
"you……"
The man smiled and said, "I'll help you clean up."
After he put the empty bowl into the sink, he turned around and went out again, got a wet towel and wiped the table clean.
"Hey, look! Handsome guy!" A girl nearby saw Sheng Yize and couldn't help but pull her companion next to her, "Oh my god, he's so handsome!"
His companion also looked over, his eyes widened: "Fuck, there is such a handsome guy in Jiangcheng!"
"Go, go ask him for his WeChat!"
"I won't go. I can't get a man who is too handsome."
"You haven't even tried, how do you know you can't get it!"
His companion glanced at Sheng Yize with disdain, thinking he was a waiter here: "What's the use of being handsome? He's still a poor bastard with no ability."
Sheng Yize: "..."
Sheng Yize stopped wiping the table and laughed angrily.
I looked back at them, and coincidentally they were looking at me too.
He raised his brows, raised his hand, scratched and pinched his mouth, threw it away, and then made the motion of chopping it with a knife.
Meaning: Can't speak, chopped mouth.
Two girls: "..."
After they finished drinking the sugar water, they ran away.
"You two pay..."
The two girls who were halfway through the run hurriedly turned back, scanned the QR code and ran again.
The man curled his lips and laughed disdainfully.
When he turned around, Yunman was standing behind him.
“…”
Sheng Yize immediately stood up straight, a little nervous: "Auntie Man."
Yun Man looked at him unhappily: "Did you drive the guests away?"
"No!" Sheng Yize defended, "They had something urgent to do, so they left after drinking."
Yun Man narrowed her eyes: "Really?"
"real."
"I'll trust you for now."
Yun Man glanced at the cleaned tables and chairs and was a little surprised.
After all, this young man in front of him has never done any housework.
Yun Man sighed and looked up at him: "Xiao Ze, I know you want to please me and show off in front of me so that I can tell you about Sui Sui, but I'm sorry, I won't tell you about her, so please stop doing these futile efforts."
Sheng Yize's face stiffened slightly, and he smiled awkwardly.
"It's okay. Whether you tell me or not, I'm willing to help you do these things."
"Just consider it as an apology for my previous offense and recklessness. You don't have to feel any psychological burden."
Yun Man looked at him and knew that the child had a stubborn temper and could not be persuaded, so she just let him be.
"It's up to you." After saying that, she turned and walked into the kitchen.
-
As the sun sets, the number of guests gradually decreases.
Yunman was checking today's bill at the cashier.
Sheng Yize was wearing an apron and holding a rag in his hand, cleaning the dishes and wiping the table at the same time.
There were some napkins and garbage on the ground, so he took a broom and dustpan and cleaned them up one by one.
Yun Man looked at his back and sighed helplessly.
She knew that he stayed to help her do all this not only to atone for his sins, but also so that one day she would be soft-hearted and tell her the information about Sang Sui's study abroad.
But Suisui’s sadness that night is still vivid in her mind, and as a mother, her heart is broken.
If the person is not suitable for you, it is best not to give him or her hope from the beginning.
"Auntie, come to the kitchen!"
The sound of a chef making sweet soup came from the kitchen.
"Hey, here you come!" Yun Man hurried over.
After Sheng Yize cleaned up his things, he put them in order.
As she was too busy to have time to clean, Yunman would collect the empty bowls and plates used by guests in the sink in the back kitchen. She would then clean them when there were not many guests later in the evening and when she had free time. She would then put them in the sterilizer for disinfection, so that they would be convenient for the guests' meals tomorrow.
No one was hired, so Yunman ended up doing the job.
Thinking that any help he could provide would be helpful, Sheng Yize was just about to walk into the kitchen to help wash the dishes when the phone on the cash register suddenly rang.
He was startled and took a look.
It’s Yunman’s phone.
The person who called was Sang Sui.
The man's pupils tightened, his heart beat rapidly, and even his breathing became heavier.
He did not remind Yunman that someone called her, but just stared at the note.
The bell rang there for a long time.
As if he had made some decision, he suddenly reached out for the phone, swiped the answer button and put it to his ear.
The girl's soft and pleasant voice hit his eardrums, making his whole heart tremble.
"Mother……"
