How did Bi Yue know that Chu Yifeng worked in a hotel?
It was because she was going to school in the morning and drove her parents to the restaurant.
When we were arrested yesterday, only Goudan ate half of the roast duck out of courtesy, while the others didn't even touch it.
Her parents didn't mention the scene that had pissed them off to death last night, but they just looked unhappy.
Especially the back of his father who put down his bowl and chopsticks and squatted in the yard smoking, he looked as if he was very worried about her.
As a result, Bi Yue was in a cautious state throughout the morning, and she was quite puzzled as to how her mother, with such a personality, could hold back on the words that were on the tip of her tongue several times.
She got up early in the morning, cooked dinner for the family, chatted with Goudan, cleaned the house to make her presence felt, and did all that, all because Bi Yue had been thinking about it for half the night, and this time she felt that she was really wrong, so if she was wrong, she should behave well.
As a result, before we even reached the restaurant, we saw a tall figure unloading mixed pork from a tricycle.
After a lot of effort, we thought alike and finally reached a tacit understanding.
Chu Yifeng whispered to Bi Yue while washing his hands: "I'm here for labor reform, trying to get leniency. Did you get scolded last night?"
Bi Yue shook her head: "No."
Chu Yifeng took over the heavy work of moving vegetables and meat from Zhao Dashan. His enthusiastic attitude made Zhao Dashan feel a little confused after paying the bill and he didn't know what to do.
Zhao Dashan looked at Bi Tiegang and Liu Yafang again and saw that they were not in a good mood. He could only say: "No, put it there quickly, you are not needed." He felt that he had to withdraw, as if something was going on here.
So when Bi Yue returned home late at noon and opened the door of the hotel, what she saw was Chu Yifeng holding a paper receipt and collecting money and giving change.
Liu Yafang frowned: "Where have you been?"
Bi Yue and Chu Yifeng exchanged a glance before walking inside and mumbling, "Something happened at school and I was delayed."
Bi Tiegang, who was sitting at the cashier counter, raised his eyelids and glanced at his daughter:
"Wash your hands and eat quickly."
"Hey, Dad, let me make a phone call first."
Chu Yifeng turned his head and watched his young wife enter the rest room. Without even looking back at him, she went to the kitchen silently and said to the chef in the smoke:
"Give me a stove."
He planned to make a special meal for Bi Yue: mutton, shredded radish, noodles and fish soup.
Dangdangdang he shredded the carrots, fished out the blanched vermicelli after the water boiled, and began to tear the mutton by hand, kneading the thick batter with his big hands.
The busy chef had to glance at him from time to time.
Chu Yifeng had been working as a laborer for the whole morning. He didn't know what to say to Bi Tiegang and Liu Yafang, but he just did the work.
He had thought it through before he came: he had to be thick-skinned, find things to talk about when he had nothing to say, and find things to do when he had nothing to do.
If he couldn't relax, the old couple would treat him as an outsider and think he was in the way.
He had carried out his plan quite well this morning. Of course, if you don't pay too much attention to the details, you won't be embarrassed.
For example, when Liu Yafang led the waiters to wash vegetables, he would carry the basins and change the water. When several women wiped the tables and windows, he would mop the floor.
As soon as Bi Tiegang took out his cigarette, he handed him his lighter. He asked a few questions:
"Uncle, what time do the customers start coming in? How much can you make in a day?"
He wanted to talk to Bi Tiegang a few times and ask him if he had any other interests or hobbies, but he stopped in time because he felt that Bi Tiegang's attitude towards him was a little unclear and he was afraid that it would be too much.
After seeing Bi Tiegang struggling to use the abacus, he went out and bought a calculator in the morning.
As a result, his future father-in-law opened the drawer and motioned him to look over. He saw it and heard Bi Tiegang mutter, "Spending money recklessly."
In addition, Bi Yue didn't come back on time, so he ate with the Bi family.
During the meal, his future mother-in-law just said that there was still rice in the pot and asked him to serve more after he finished eating. When he served the third bowl, Gou'er smiled and said he could eat more. When he stood up again, Bi Cheng reached out to take the bowl. He really treated him as a glutton and thought he was going to eat the fourth bowl.
They were all trivial matters, but Chu Yifeng felt that without Bi Yue around, he felt psychologically vulnerable.
The old couple no longer had the reserve and enthusiasm they had before when they met him, not to mention their good attitude when they took them to watch the flag-raising ceremony.
I guess, Chu Yifeng intuitively felt that his previous good attitude would be gone forever.
In short, after much anticipation, Bi Yue finally came back, but he and Bi Yue couldn't talk much yet.
I felt a little discouraged at this moment.
Chu Yifeng heated up the oil in the wok and began to stir-fry the shredded lamb. He shook his head slightly, thinking optimistically:
That's fine, buddy, this means we have infiltrated the enemy.
At this moment, we can see each other but cannot hear each other. I wish the moonlight could shine on you!
Bi Yue frowned and asked Chen Dapeng on the phone: "What has my uncle been busy with recently? Why can't I find anyone when I call him again and again?"
Chen Dapeng, who had followed from his hometown, was a fifteen-year-old boy who felt quite burdened by the questioning. He said with a bit of embarrassment:
"Then let me tell you, don't tell your family. Second brother won't let you."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Speak!"
"My second brother was hospitalized a while ago. He had stomach bleeding from drinking too much."
"What?"
"He went through the loan process, approvals, and then acquired three small mines. He's been in the city for a while now.
After all the formalities were completed, he collapsed. The doctor said it was gastric bleeding caused by gastric ulcer, and he stayed in the hospital for several days.
It's all right now. He took the train yesterday at midnight, and I just got back. I think he'll be in Kyoto by evening."
Bi Yue was stunned: "You're back?"
Chen Dapeng sighed:
"He said he was going back to collect the money. The accounts at the tobacco and liquor store in Kyoto are not right. He's been trying to collect the money for the past month but it's been a while since he's been able to get it wired. And my second brother is in the hospital and he's really anxious..."
Bi Yue sighed before she even picked up her chopsticks when she saw the noodle and fish soup served by Chu Yifeng.
That expression surprised Liu Yafang, who was observing them frequently.
Chu Yifeng is so embarrassed.
It wasn't shameful to cook for someone alone, but Bi Yue didn't eat quickly and sighed at the big bowl.
He simply sat down and asked Bi Yue:
"What's wrong? What did you do at noon? Come and eat."
Bi Yue muttered softly, "My uncle, don't you know that you can't chew too much? If you move too fast, you're not making money, you're pushing yourself."
Chu Yifeng understood, turned around to look at Bi Tiegang who was drinking from a teacup, and whispered, "What happened?"
"Do you have anything to do this afternoon? Go to my uncle's store at around 4 or 5 o'clock. He's back. Don't let my parents know yet. He's back for something."
…
Bi Tielin, now thinner, with his white shirt rolled up at the elbows, pushed open the door of his central store. As soon as he entered, he bumped into his former brother, Ersha.
Second fool, really stupid, the moment he saw Bi Tielin, the man in his forties burst into tears:
"Tielin, where have you been? I'm hungry, I can't even eat enough! Xizi asked that bitch to throw my food bowl at me!"
Bi Tielin patted Ersha soothingly, and when he looked up, he saw Wu Yuxi and the pregnant Chen Cuiliu coming out one after another.
He sneered, his eyes filled with coldness. (To be continued.)
