Chapter 17 Would you please advance my salary for one year?
Liu Xing slept very late, not because he didn't want to sleep, but because he really couldn't sleep. For Liu Xing, who always had a very high sleep quality, it was nothing but a kind of irony. It wasn't until four o'clock in the morning that Liu Xing entered the dream state.
Falling asleep.
"Liu Xing, get up, it's time to go to work!" In the early morning, when Liu Xing had just entered sleep, a sweet and gentle voice sounded, making Liu Xing wonder whether he was awake or in a dream.
"Liu Xing, I've prepared breakfast, get up soon~~!" The voice sounded again and got closer, and then Liu Xing felt a chill on his body, and the quilt covering his body seemed to be lifted off.
"Ah~~!"
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" A piercing scream let Liu Xing know that this was not a dream. He straightened up and sat up. Could it be that there was a fire? Looking to the side, he saw the eldest lady standing there with a red face.
He covered his eyes with his hands, but he seemed to be looking at Liu Xing through the gaps between his fingers.
"What's wrong?" Liu Xing looked at the other person and asked.
"You...you...sleep naked!" the eldest lady pointed at Liu Xing's body and said.
"Huh?" After hearing what the other party said, Liu Xing looked around and found that he was indeed not wearing any clothes, and his little brother was also very excited because of the morning. Liu Xing recalled that he seemed to have endured a series of abuses from the eldest lady last night.
After the blow, I took a cold shower, then fell on the bed and slept all night.
Hey! My life is so miserable. I didn’t get a good wife and mother, but I found a young lady to come back to support me. How damn bad!
"Have you seen enough? If you have seen enough, please go out, I want to get dressed!" Liu Xing looked at the other party and said, his spirit was still numb from the torture of the other party's words last night.
"Look... I've seen enough. I'm sorry, I'm going out now!" After hearing Liu Xing's words, Xia Xue quickly bowed and apologized, then turned around in a panic, "Bang~~!" and bumped into a cabinet on the side.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Xia Xue covered her head and bowed in the direction of the cabinet to apologize, and then walked out the door.
And the apology from the cabinet? That’s a big one! Liu Xing put on her clothes without much interest. When she was washing, she looked in the mirror. She didn’t have enough sleep, and she still had panda eyes.
Hey, I don’t know what will happen in the future!
He stretched out and looked at the time. It was 8:10. This was the earliest time he had gone to work in the past year. Suddenly he sniffed his nose, and a scent filled the room, which made Liu Xing forget about yesterday.
My stomach, which had been empty all night, couldn't help but growl.
Suddenly he remembered that when the eldest lady went to her room to wake up, she had said something like breakfast was ready. It was impossible. This fragrance was completely inversely proportional to the income of the eldest lady he had seen? Liu Xing couldn't help but
I walked into the restaurant curiously and saw the eldest lady busy pouring the side dishes from her pocket onto the plate. The table was already full of food. Jiao rings, bean juice, pickles, and steamed buns. For Liu Xing, who had never been in the habit of eating breakfast,
It is already quite rich.
"Come and eat quickly!" Xia Xue looked at Liu Xing and said, her pretty face was still as bright red, but her smile seemed to make people who had just experienced winter feel psychologically warm like the sunshine in April, although now
It's already summer.
"Bought it outside?" Liu Xing sat down and asked. It seemed that things were not as bad as he thought!
"Well, I got up at 7:30 in the morning and went out to buy something. I didn't know what you like to eat. I heard that people in Beijing like to drink soy juice, so I bought this. The morning market nearby is really lively!" Xia Xue
Liu Xing said with a smile, and then handed the other party a pair of chopsticks.
"Yes!" Liu Xing nodded after hearing this. He was right. Bean juice is a traditional snack in Beijing. It is slightly sour and sweet. It has the functions of broadening the mind, regulating qi, removing heat and aiding digestion. Many old Beijingers regard drinking bean juice as a snack.
It is a kind of enjoyment. It tastes sour and bitter, and it is already kind. For those who have never drank it, the first sip is like wow! It tastes rancid, smelly, and has a strange taste. How to swallow it? Some people think it is like 'swill', while others drink it.
I am addicted to lovesickness. It is both "dregs" and "darling". Only when you get better can you appreciate the infinite taste. The same is true for people who love stinky tofu and durian.
In old Beijing, drinking soybean juice is very particular. It must be paired with very finely chopped pickles. Generally, kohlrabi is used in summer, and some use old salted mustard, cut into thin strips, mixed with chili oil, and fried to a crispy brown color.
Circle. That’s one word - beautiful! And Beijingers, whether young or old, rich or poor, high or low, all like to drink this stuff.
Some people say that because bean juice is cheap, it is a food for the common people and cannot be considered elegant. Bullshit! People who say such things are definitely not from Beijing. During the Qianlong period, someone once went to the palace to report the original title: "Recently, there is a new brand of bean juice."
Yilibu was sent to check whether it was clean and drinkable. If there was nothing unclean, Yunbu recruited two or three bean juice craftsmen and sent them to the imperial kitchen as servants. So, the bean juice originated from the people became the royal meal of the palace.
Even the emperor drinks it, what else do you want to say? If you have drank soybean juice, you may not be a Beijinger, but if you have not drank soybean juice, you are definitely not a Beijinger.
Even though Liu Xing was born into a wealthy family, he grew up drinking soybean juice when he was a child. After not drinking it for many years, he really misses it.
"Well? Why is there something wrong with this taste?" Liu Xing frowned slightly and said after taking a sip. Could it be that he is not used to it after not drinking for many years?
"Oh, when I tasted it, I found it was sour and bitter, so I tried some milk...!"
"Pfft~~!" After hearing the eldest lady's words, Liu Xing spit out the bean juice he just drank from his mouth without any reservation.
"What? Doesn't it taste good?" The eldest lady blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Liu Xing innocently and asked.
"Miss...!"
"Don't be so polite. We are all on our own. We will live together in the future. Just call me by my name, Xia Xue or Xiaoxue! You are always calling me eldest lady or eldest lady. What a blessing!" Xia Xue interrupted.
After hearing what Liu Xing said, he said.
"You have given me too many 'surprises'!" Liu Xing covered his forehead with one hand and wiped his mouth with a towel with the other.
"Really? Haha, I would be embarrassed!" Xia Xue tilted her head and looked at Liu Xing and said with a smile, innocent!
"I'm not praising you!" Liu Xing looked at the other party and couldn't help but said. She didn't expect that a simple bowl of soybean juice could make her play such tricks. Hey! I was careless, I was careless!
"Well?" Xia Xue's big eyes continued to flash after hearing Liu Xing's words. She didn't know whether she didn't understand or pretended not to understand, and continued her innocence and innocence!
Liu Xing lowered his head deeply, defeated, completely defeated! She never thought that she, who once roamed among flowers, could be defeated so easily by a woman. In the past, this was something she could not even dream of, or even thought about.
But now, all this has become a reality. This makes Liu Xing have to lament the uncertainty of the world. Is this retribution for his pervert?
Looking at Xia Xue who was still drinking happily, Liu Xing finally admitted.
Retribution, retribution!
"Eat quickly, don't you have to go to work later? I don't want my master to go to work on an empty stomach!" Xia Xue looked at Liu Xing and said with a smile, then reached out and handed over a bun.
"Owner?"
"Yes, I am your nanny now, of course you are my master!" Xia Xue said with a smile.
"I am your master? You are my aunt!" Liu Xing sighed in his heart. He was about to bite the bun, but when his lips pressed against the skin of the bun, he stopped unconsciously and put it in front of him.
I looked at it and found that the bun didn't open its mouth. Is there anything wrong with it?
"I bought this bun from a nearby bun shop called Qingfeng. I asked about it. It's stuffed with three kinds of fresh food. It's very good!" Xia Xue shook the half-bitten bun in her hand at Liu Xing and said to Liu Xing.
Xing said.
That's good! Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and then took a hard bite of the bun in his hand. Now Liu Xing could only use the bun in his hand to vent his anger.
I can't drink soy juice anymore, so I can only drink boiled water.
After eating, there were four hot buns left. This woman was very good at buying fifteen hamburgers at once. However, according to her record of eating five burgers last night and taking two away, she ate them this morning.
With six buns, she was acting abnormally!
I don't know if Xia Yu in the building opposite has gotten up yet, so I made a phone call. Yes, she has already started to get dressed. The two agreed to meet downstairs in five minutes.
Just when Liu Xing was about to go to work, he was pulled by his sleeve by the smiling eldest lady behind him.
"What's the matter?" Liu Xing looked at the other person and asked.
"You...can you advance my salary for one year in advance?" Xia Xue looked at Liu Xing and asked, her big eyes still blinking~~!
"A year's salary? Twelve thousand? Why do you need so much money?" Liu Xing looked at the other party with his mouth wide open. Although this small amount of money is nothing to him, but... but this is too unreasonable.
Right? Not to mention the things that the eldest lady broke, you provide her with food and shelter, and you have to pay a year's salary in advance if you don't work for a day? You're kidding!
"I...I know it's a bit unreasonable, but I only have this set of clothes now. I've been wearing them for several days. I haven't changed... my underwear or anything. I want to go buy some clothes!" Xia Xue was a little bit confused.
He said aggrievedly.
Liu Xing looked at the other person up and down and found that she was still wearing the same tight-fitting black clothes when they first met. She was right, she should change some clothes. But this young lady was too spendthrift. She put it on the table yesterday morning
Several hundred dollars. He also paid for the KFC meal in the evening. He asked for it again today, and it turned out to be the eldest lady.
Liu Xing took out his wallet. There was not much cash in it, less than two thousand. Liu Xing took out ten cards and handed them to the other party.
"As you can see, I don't have that much money on me. How about you hold on for a few days and I'll go shopping with you on the weekend?" Liu Xing looked at the other person and said.
"Okay, it just so happens that I'm not familiar with Beijing. I'm going to have a good time with you here for a few days!" Xia Xue said after hearing Liu Xing's words.
Play? Who has time to play with you?
Liu Xing said nothing, turned and walked downstairs.
