After dawn, we went to the clothing factory again, and sure enough, the price they offered us was reduced by one-third.
"If there was no inside information, it would be hard to tell that this woman is actually a devil who does all kinds of evil behind her back."
Zhang Xuan was lying on the bed with her head on my shoulder, staring at the white-bone demon on the TV.
After "Bao Qingtian" ended, TV channels began to air "Journey to the West" and "The Legend of the White Snake" in rotation.
"Why can't you see it? I can tell at a glance that she has a murder case on her hands."
Zhang Xuan stretched out two fingers, as if she wanted to dig out my eyes, and asked me to help her take a look.
"Sister-in-law Yiyi, do you want Guoguo to show you when you can become my real sister-in-law?"
In the atmosphere of the ninth day of the lunar month, the stupid Tang Monk couldn't distinguish the monsters and drove away Sun Wukong.
This Li Shimin was stupid enough. He insisted on forcing the stupid Tang Monk to go to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. It would be great to eat Tang Monk and become immortal. The Tang Dynasty is still in its heyday.
"Why don't you say that even though Li Shimin has lived to this day, the whole world is ruled by the Tang Dynasty?"
Zhang Xuan knocked Chujiu on the head, and then continued to ask me what I could see in her face.
"I can see that there will definitely be no red envelopes for the ninth day of the Lunar New Year."
I was joking casually, but Zhang Xuan thought of more things when she heard it, and she started to feel depressed.
On the ninth day of the lunar month, I rolled my eyes at me. I thought it would be better to drop out of school next semester and go to Qinglong Temple to become a monk, chant Amitabha Buddha every day, and don’t have to guess the girl’s thoughts.
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Let's go out to eat!"
On the ninth day of the lunar month, Zhang Xuan and I were urged to have a good meal during the half-hour commercial break, and then come back just in time to watch White Snake praying for the magic medicine Ganoderma lucidum to save Xu Xian.
On the way to dinner, Zhang Xuan curiously asked us if Ganoderma lucidum could really save lives, and she also tried to get some to take with her.
Chujiu rolled his eyes, the Ganoderma lucidum planted by Taishang Laojun probably had this possibility.
As for the Ganoderma lucidum on our planet, even if it is eaten as food, it can only lower blood pressure and relieve asthma without causing insomnia.
"It's also good for treating insomnia. I'll ask the deputy commander to get me some some other time."
Zhang Xuan happily grabbed two more skewers of chicken legs and handed them to the barbecue master, making sure to add more spice.
"The room smells like barbecue. Aren't you afraid of being hungry after you fall asleep at night?"
In order not to delay watching TV, Chujiu and Zhang Xuan took the barbecue back to the room and ate and watched it.
I swallowed my saliva and cursed the old quack doctor again. Why can I only eat clear soup and water when I have inflammation?
"Why don't you dare to blame me? Instead, blame other doctors."
My thoughts were once again guessed by Zhang Xuan. When I was shocked, she said without looking back, who in the right mind would gnash his teeth at the plaster?
Indeed, it seems that I have never hated Zhang Xuan. Is it because I am afraid of being kicked out again?
"Brother, are you sure you don't want to wear a body armor to sleep?"
Zhang Xuan was lying on her side, one arm supporting her chin with a smile on her face.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll go down and sleep on the floor immediately."
Zhang Xuan answered me by stretching out her arms and burying her head in my arms.
"Brother, this is good."
I didn't sleep deeply that night. I was always worried that I would make some noise and be taken to the hospital overnight for emergency treatment.
On the other hand, Zhang Xuan slept so peacefully for the first time in the past few nights, breathing steadily and with a smile on her lips all night long.
For several days, apart from lying in the hotel and watching TV, I also went out and ate at all the nearby restaurants door to door.
Like every day before, at nine o'clock in the evening we went out to the night stall again.
Seeing the black car parked in front of the Anhui food stall, Zhang Xuan and Chujiu quickly realized the result of my previous calculation.
When Hongmei discovered us, Chujiu scratched her head, as if something had been left in the room. Zhang Xuan thoughtfully said that she would accompany Chujiu back to get it.
"Sister Hong, I didn't expect to see you today. I haven't had a chance to thank you for the work at the garment factory. I have to treat you to this meal today."
As I said that, I ran over to the food stall proprietress, casually ordered a few dishes, and settled the bill for Hongmei.
Hongmei was not too polite to me. She just excused herself and let me settle the bill. Maybe this was just a trivial matter in her eyes.
"Why did Sister Hong bring an employee here today?"
I joked that he was worthy of being a big boss. It was too luxurious for only two people to eat such a large table of dishes.
Different from the first time I met Hongmei, today only the tattooed man who was beaten by Chujiu was with her, probably just to act as her driver.
"Business has been busy recently. The factory has received a batch of orders, and everyone is working day and night."
Hongmei laughed and said that she had gone through a lot of hardships before she met these friends in the park.
I just said hello to my acquaintances and asked them to take care of them, but actually I didn't do much to help us.
The dishes on Hongmei's table were almost the same, and it looked like they might leave at any time. Chujiu and Zhang Xuan hadn't come out of the hotel yet.
"My younger brother has been talking about you every day recently. You have helped us so much. He said he is just waiting for you to go to Sichuan."
Hongmei put down her chopsticks and nodded. She must go, she must go. They all said that Sichuan is a good place and she has been thinking about going there for a long time.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I saw Chujiu walking over from a distance with a backpack in his hand.
As before, Zhang Xuan softly called Sister Hong and then sat next to me. She made a ready gesture with her hand hidden under the table.
"Sister Hong, if you don't show up, I will go back to Sichuan."
Chujiu dropped the backpack in her hand on the chair next to me, ran to Hongmei's side, hugged Hongmei's arm and shook her coquettishly.
"Guo Guo, I'm sorry that day. I thought you were going to beat me up, so I did it first."
Chu Jiu picked up an empty glass, picked up the wine bottle on the Hongmei table and filled it with wine. He punished himself with a glass of wine and apologized to the tattooed man.
"With a hug, all grudges will be wiped out."
Chujiu stretched out his arms and hugged the strong man with tattoos. The latter had an indescribable embarrassment on his face. The way this Sichuanese dealt with things was incredible. What was there to hug two grown men?
"What? Are you going back to Sichuan?"
Chujiu nodded, the matter was almost done, and it would only take these two days to go back. Fortunately, he could say goodbye to Sister Hong before going back.
"Okay, I wish you a safe journey with this glass of wine."
Hongmei picked up the wine glass boldly. Seeing this, the tattooed man beside her quickly picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"The green hills remain unchanged and the green waters always flow. Goodbye, good man!"
Chujiu raised his fists and faced the tattooed man. The latter hesitated for a long time and said with a look of despair: Goodbye, good man.
"Okay, two little brothers, I still have something to do, so I won't be polite to you. It seems like I'm being pretentious."
Hongmei got up and joked with Zhang Xuan that she must call her on the big day. Even if she couldn't make it to Sichuan, the red envelope would definitely be delivered.
