Chapter 672 The Young Lady and the Repairman (2)
Because they remembered this kindness, Aunt Fang and her family thought of taking better care of He Mian.
Bai Yao did not comment on Aunt Fang's words. She picked up the book on the side and started reading again. Aunt Fang could not guess what Bai Yao was thinking, and did not want to annoy her, so she could only turn around and do her own thing.
At dusk, Aunt Fang prepared a table of food.
Only Bai Yao was sitting in the restaurant. Her father's experiment was at a critical stage, and he basically stayed in the base from morning to night every day. Her mother became a class teacher and often had evening self-study classes. Dinner was solved in the school cafeteria.
Bai Yao was sitting in the restaurant, and could occasionally hear the noise coming from outside the window. She asked Aunt Fang, "Isn't that guy named He Mian going home yet?"
Aunt Fang replied, "That kid must want to finish his work early so that he can take on other jobs."
When He Mian came to the manor, he took a look around. He said the places that needed to be repaired. Bai Yu said the number directly and neatly, and let this young but very calm boy take care of all the places that needed to be dealt with.
Those who work usually go home at around 5:30, but now it's 6 o'clock and He Mian is still working.
If he finishes the work here early, he can find other work.
And Bai Yao can continue to enjoy the meals made with expensive ingredients and delicious juice.
Bai Yao had no psychological burden. After she finished her meal, Aunt Fang cleaned up the dishes and cleaned up the house. Then, she and her husband left the manor and went home.
Before leaving, Aunt Fang reminded Bai Yao: "Be sure to lock the doors and windows, and don't leave the room after 12 o'clock."
In fact, Bai Yao's parents wanted to find a live-in nanny before. After all, they were really busy with work and couldn't accompany Bai Yao often. But when people nearby heard that they had to stay overnight in the manor, they refused to agree to work here.
This manor has existed for too long, and it has been vacant for so long, so it is inevitable that there are some scary rumors.
Bai Yao's parents thought this was a lie, but they were worried that Bai Yao would be scared, so they wanted to buy another house. But Bai Yao saw that her mother liked this manor, and she was not a child anymore, so she could not be afraid of being alone at home.
So they moved into this manor and found Aunt Fang, the nanny.
Aunt Fang always gave Bai Yao a warning before leaving. Bai Yao knew that she was kind, so she always treated her well.
A tall man was waiting for Aunt Fang at the gate of the manor. He was her husband. Because he was the fourth child in the family, everyone called him Jiang Laosi.
It is said that Jiang Laosi and Aunt Fang have been married for many years and have a good relationship.
This manor has a sense of age. Bai Yao's mother prefers retro style and did not make major changes. Bai Yao poured a glass of milk and stood in front of the old glass window, watching the night wind swaying outside.
At this time, the sunset had completely set in the west, and the night rose, with a few sparse stars.
Gradually, the boy with a tool bag on his back appeared in the blurred light and shadow.
He was tall and thin. After a day's work, his back was still straight, and every step he took was so steady.
Bai Yao's curious eyes fell on his thin back, raised his hand and touched his chin, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
There was a faint movement behind him.
She looked back and saw a drop of water on the floor. She raised her head again and stared at the ceiling, wondering if it was damp and water had dripped from it.
Before she could figure it out, she noticed from the corner of her eye that the boy outside had stopped.
He Mian stood in the night, his black eyes fixed in her direction, as if he was looking at her, or as if he was staring at her through the glass window.
While Bai Yao was confused, He Mian lowered his head and quickly walked out of the manor gate.
When her mother came home, Bai Yao told her about her suspicion that the house was damp.
Wen Wan was exhausted after a day's work facing a bunch of naughty children. She touched her daughter's head and said, "Didn't your father find a repairman? Let the repairman come and take a look tomorrow."
Bai Yao said "Oh".
She was on summer vacation after the college entrance examination, but junior high school students still had to attend classes for a while. Wen Wan went to school early the next morning to attend morning self-study, and Bai Yu also went out early in the morning.
Bai Yao was the most relaxed person in the Bai family. As
usual, she woke up after a lazy sleep, put on a white nightgown with disheveled hair, and left the room in a pair of slippers, intending to tell Aunt Fang that she wanted to drink corn and pork ribs soup for lunch today.
On the stairs, she stopped when her eyes met the boy in the living room.
He Mian was still dressed in a simple T-shirt and black work shorts, and the pair of white shoes on his feet made his long legs look even longer.
Perhaps because he has wheat-colored skin, the lines on his legs seem to be more powerful.
He didn't expect Bai Yao to show up at this time, and he couldn't help but feel a little reserved. One arm tightly grasped the shoulder strap of the tool bag, and the muscle lines on his arm were also particularly beautiful.
It's just that without the embellishment of the sun, when he was working on the roof yesterday, the lines of his arms were undulating, but there was a natural wildness.
"Miss Bai, good morning." He Mian greeted and turned slightly. "Mr. Bai said that there may be damp places in the house. I'll take a look."
He heard the sound of the girl coming down the stairs, brisk and energetic.
Then, the sound reached his side and stopped.
Bai Yao said: "Good morning, He Mian."
He did not look at her, but he could imagine from her cheerful tone that she was smiling now.
Bai Yao asked him, "Have you had breakfast?"
He Mian said, "Yes." It
's not like he has never encountered polite employers. Regardless of whether the other party really wants to treat him to dinner, he will answer "Have you had breakfast", which can reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Aunt Fang walked out of the kitchen and said unexpectedly: "Miss, it's still cold in the morning. You'll catch a cold if you wear something like this!"
Bai Yao was wearing a very cool nightgown, a thin silk suspender nightgown. Her beautiful figure was easily outlined with every move she made.
Especially when she was so carefree as to stay on the stairs, people standing in the living room could vaguely see the white glow of her legs when they looked up.
Bai Yao also realized it late, and smiled embarrassedly, "I was half asleep, I'll go change my clothes now, Aunt Fang, I want to drink corn and pork ribs soup today."
Aunt Fang immediately said: "Okay, I'll go make the soup later."
Bai Yao went up the stairs, just as briskly as before.
Until the sound became farther and farther away, and no more movement could be heard, He Mian's hand holding the shoulder strap slightly relaxed, and his breathing became much more natural.
Aunt Fang kindly reminded: "Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai love their daughter very much. He Mian, you are not good at saying nice things, but you must not offend Miss Bai. It is best not to hang around her."
Bai Yao is too beautiful and too delicate. She naturally gives people the feeling of being superior and not easy to get close to. Aunt Fang has worked here for a while. Although she thinks Bai Yao is not as difficult to approach as outsiders think, it is always good for He Mian to pay more attention to her.
He Mian said: "I will leave after work."
