Come on, butcher

After going to work the next day, Xiao Xi probed the shed several times and saw sporadic people going in and out of the shed, but he didn’t see Zheng Haifei’s figure. She wondered if he wasn’t there. .He cheered himself up, and finally decided to go there, just as he lifted his foot, he saw Zheng Haifei coming back from outside on his bicycle.Xiao Xi was so frightened that she quickly backed away, and accidentally stepped on the person behind her. The other party yelled "Ouch", and Xiao Xi quickly turned around: "Uncle Liu, I'm sorry, I didn't see you."

Da Liu's chubby face was wrinkled, and there were many creases on his smooth face, like a steamed stuffed bun just out of the box: "Xiao Xi, what are you doing? You're sneaking around like a thief. Your feet are so heavy that you step on me. My toe is about to be broken."

Xiao Xi hurriedly apologized with a smile: "I'm sorry Uncle Liu, it's okay, you sit down quickly, and I'll pour you water." He graciously helped Da Liu sit down and poured water.

Da Liu saw him like this: "Why, did you fall in love with the girl next door? Being sneaky is like being a thief."

Xiao Xi looked confused: "Ah? What?"

Big Liu Bai glanced at him and said: "Pretend, you still pretend! Just the proprietress of Zhuyiju next door, she came to eat yesterday, didn't you chat with him for a long time? Let me tell you, don't look at people as young and beautiful , he is ten years older than you."

Xiao Xi finally remembered such a person, and then looked helpless: "It's nothing, I want to see beautiful women, I will go to see beautiful women, do I need to be sneaky?" The owner of Xiangzhuyiju is an elegant and beautiful woman named Xinxiang. She came to the Fishing Shrimp Restaurant for dinner last night and was received by Xiao Xi.Xiao Xi is a beauty lover, she likes all beautiful things, and naturally has a good impression of this beautiful sister. When ordering and serving food, she said a few words to her, but was misunderstood by Da Liu.But he really didn't have that kind of thought at all, he just admired it.

Da Liu squinted at him: "Then you don't look at beautiful women, what do you look at?"

Xiao Xi scratched her head and said truthfully, "I'm looking at the succulent greenhouse next door."

Da Liu became more and more puzzled: "The one next door planting grass? If you want to go, go there. There is an old lady and a man there, why are you embarrassed? You are still watching secretly."

Xiao Xi whispered: "I accidentally offended the boss over there yesterday."

"Really? How did you offend him? The guy next door has a weird temper, and it's normal if you don't get along." Da Liu said.

Xiao Xi immediately became gossipy: "Uncle, why is he so weird?"

Da Liu said: "His succulent greenhouse opened quite early, earlier than mine and Zhuyiju. When I came, I must invite the neighbors to eat, but he came here and drank two Just left with a glass of wine, didn't even move the chopsticks, disliked my family's food, didn't eat it, didn't eat it, and if I didn't eat it, I couldn't finish it?"

Xiao Xi didn't expect Zheng Haifei to be picky, he said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, maybe he was not feeling well that day."

"Don't come here if you're not feeling well! This young man can't be a man. I've opened a shrimp fishing restaurant for so long, and he hasn't come to my place for a meal, and he rarely comes here. I have so many guests here, he If I have a good relationship with me, I can also help him introduce business, right? You see, the proprietress of Zhuyiju is very good at being a person. The tables and chairs here are all bought from her. They are so unique and many customers like them. I I have helped to recommend and sold many sets. In business, you must pay attention to contacts, mutual benefit, and mutual help. This boss Xiao Zheng is not like a businessman. I haven’t seen anyone coming to buy it, and I don’t know how the shed is still open, maybe because the family has money.” Da Liu shook his head while talking.

Xiao Xi opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.Seeing him like this, Da Liu patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, this has nothing to do with you, you can play there if you like."

Xiao Xi naturally wouldn't go, he was avoiding Zheng Haifei.In the morning, there was no one in the shrimp fishing restaurant. Xiao Xi fished shrimps for a while bored by himself, and put them back after catching them. Da Liu asked him to go out to play, so as not to toss the shrimps to death.He then ran to the bamboo art residence next door. The proprietress Xinxiang was wearing a cheongsam, her hair was combed into a high bun, revealing her slender and fair neck, and she was making tea to entertain guests. She learned from the southerners and made a kung fu tea set. There is still clanking guqin music in the room, and the atmosphere is quite similar, antique.Xiao Xi had to admire, the proprietress had good taste.

Xiao Xi didn't go over to say hello. He wandered around the store by himself. There were bamboo and wood handicrafts everywhere. He touched the small wooden water wheel, looked at the baskets made of bamboo strips, and saw a pot of succulents on the shelf. Carved bamboo tubes are raised, beautiful and flexible, and complement the environment.He turned his head and looked around. There were quite a few such succulents, dotted around the store, all of which were ordinary items, but they were all very beautiful. He reckoned that they should have been obtained from Guihang.

Xinxiang finally saw off the guests, and waved to Xiao Xi with a smile: "Come here for tea."

Xiao Xi waved her hand: "Don't drink, don't waste your tea, I don't understand tea."

"Then drink it as water and chat. There is an air conditioner here, so it's cooler." Xinxiang smiled and spoke softly, very gently.

Xiao Xi couldn't refuse the other party's kindness, so she sat across from her. Xinxiang skillfully soaked the teacup in boiling water, and then picked it up with bamboo tweezers: "The shrimp fishing restaurant is not busy now, is it?"

"Well, there's no one in the morning." Xiao Xi looked at the blue stone lotus on the table, "Did you buy this succulent from Guihang? It looks really good."

Xinxiang pursed her lips and smiled: "I took it, but I didn't give you any money, and I sent it back after a long apprenticeship, and exchanged it for a new one."

Xiao Xi heard her say: "Are you very familiar with Boss Zheng?"

"Very familiar, Haifei is a nice person. I couldn't be busy when I bought the goods, so I called him." Xinxiang poured boiling water into the teapot, poured three cups of tea, brought one of them to Xiao Xi, and invited him to drink Tea.

Xiao Xi thanked him, picked it up and took a sip: "My uncle said Boss Zheng has a weird personality, but you said he is nice, who should I listen to?"

Xinxiang looked at him and smiled: "Then you have to rely on your own eyes to see and judge with your own heart."

After Xiao Xi finished drinking a cup of tea, she rolled her eyes: "Sister Xin, are you free now? Let's go to the shed to have a look." If we went with Xinxiang, it would not be so embarrassing to meet Zheng Haifei.

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Xinxiang smiled and squinted at Xiao Xi.

Seeing her smile, Xiao Xi knew there was something going on. He coughed lightly: "I want to buy some pots of succulents. You are familiar with him, so you might be able to bargain for me. Let's go together, please, Sister Xin." After finishing speaking Put your hands together in a petition.

Xinxiang put down her teacup: "Alright, you can help me get a basket and put those pots of succulent meat, I'm just going to change." Saying this, she stood up, pulled down the cheongsam, and flattened the folds on it , casually took a long-handled umbrella from the shelf.

Xiao Xi swiftly put away a few pots of succulents, and followed behind Xin Xiang, acting as a younger brother.Xiao Xi followed Xinxiang into the return voyage, but he didn't see Zheng Haifei at first sight, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.When Zheng's mother saw Xinxiang, she greeted cordially as if seeing her own daughter: "Xiangxiang, you are here, come and sit down."

Xinxiang greeted the old lady with a smile: "Auntie is good. Are you busy today? Why didn't you see Haifei and went out?"

The old lady pouted at the rest area in the corner: "No, it's over there. Haifei, Xiangxiang is here."

As soon as Xiao Xi came in, his eyes were attracted by a succulent platter at the door, but he didn't notice it yesterday. This big platter is a large bamboo frame, which should be obtained from Bamboo Art House, leaning against the table , the colorful succulents are put together into a flower plate, and the middle is decorated with bamboo roots, which is very elegant. Xiao Xi suspects that this plate is made by Xinxiang.

As soon as Xiao Xi heard that Zheng Haifei was there, she turned her head to look. Zheng Haifei raised her head from behind a table and looked towards this side, and said hello familiarly: "Come here, is the store busy?" His gaze stayed on Xiao Xi's face for two seconds.

As soon as Xiao Xi made eye contact with him, he immediately wanted to hide behind Xinxiang, but how could Xinxiang who was 1 meters hide him who was 65 meters tall, so he smiled awkwardly and continued to look at the platter.

Xinxiang said: "Fortunately, it's okay to walk a few steps away. The pots of succulents in my store are empty again, so bring them here for a change. Are you writing express orders again? You buy a printer."

Zheng Haifei responded: "Yeah. Are you a fool again? Give it to me, and I'll change it for you."

Xinxiang turned sideways: "Xiao Xi, give him the succulent."

Xiao Xi came back to her senses: "Oh, good."

Zheng Haifei raised his eyebrows slightly: "I found a little follower."

Xinxiang's smile became more intense: "Yes, he is very handsome. This is my new kid, you have to take care of him. Xiao Xi, don't you want to buy succulents? Go. Haifei will make it cheaper. "

Zheng Haifei stretched out his hand towards Xiao Xi and took the basket: "Of course I won't let him suffer, I'll give him the wholesale price."

Xiao Xi made eye contact with Zheng Haifei for a while, then moved away, and said, "I'll go and have a look first." After speaking, he plunged into the sea of ​​meat, forgetting about Xinxiang and Zheng Haifei.

When Xinxiang left, Xiao Xi was still watching Succulents. She said to Zheng Haifei: "I will leave my little brother to you. I will go back first. The store can't be empty for too long, and you can't bully people."

"How can it be?" Zheng Haifei smiled, and glanced at Xiao Xi who was lingering among the flowers, he was bullying himself.

Xiao Xi stayed in the shed for an hour, and he didn't actually plan to buy meat. Since there is a shed here, it's better to wait until summer is over before stocking up, but he found a reason to buy more meat, and it didn't seem good to go back empty-handed, so he He brought out a pot of new jade beads, he had bought this one before, and the water was dead, so he should add another pot.

Xiao Xi thought it would be the old lady who paid the bill, but he didn't expect that only Zheng Haifei was there, and the old lady had gone somewhere. He hesitated whether to put the new jade ornament back and not buy it.Zheng Haifei was surfing the Internet at the front desk, and when he saw him coming, he raised his head: "Have you chosen?"

Xiao Xi smiled awkwardly: "Okay, how much is this?"

Zheng Haifei looked at Xin Yuxiu: "Five yuan."

Xiao Xi took out ten yuan from her wallet and handed it to Zheng Haifei.Zheng Haifei took it, opened the drawer, and took out a five-yuan note to him: "Are you the Sea of ​​Chenguang?"

Seeing that she couldn't escape, Xiao Xi could only nod honestly: "Yes."

Zheng Haifei raised his eyebrows: "Last time you let me go."

Xiao Xi hurriedly said: "No! When I paid the next day, the statistician said that you had already sold it."

"No."

"Ah?" Xiao Xi reacted instantly, "You said you didn't sell it?"

Zheng Haifei said: "You just don't want it. I never force myself to do business, and I don't want to wrong my succulent."

Xiao Xi felt a little embarrassed when Zheng Haifei saw through his mind, he scratched his head: "Hey, actually I already have those two kinds. I was angry with that guy, he always cut off our beards, I did it just to get angry. His Hu was later banned by you, and I couldn't get the Ping Pong Fu Niang I wanted, so he went offline in a fit of anger."

Zheng Haifei said: "So I changed the rules now, as long as there is a bid, the countdown will start again, so as not to be cut off."

Xiao Xi didn't expect that this incident would cause him to change the auction rules, and he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, and said, "It should have been like this a long time ago, you don't know how annoying it is to be cut off."

"In fact, buyers are at a disadvantage in this way."

Xiao Xi looked at Zheng Haifei in astonishment, and immediately realized that the sellers in the group usually end the auction when the price is almost the same. If someone keeps bidding, the price of succulent meat will be raised, and it is very likely that there will be an inflated price , The loser is naturally the buyer.Xiao Xi thought for a while and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's an auction. Both parties have to take risks, and the buyer sometimes misses it."

Zheng Haifei said, "That's true."

After paying the bill, Xiao Xi thought it was not good to just leave, since they all ran over, she couldn't waste the opportunity: "Actually, I didn't expect you to be the leader of the group, you don't remember villains, you won't blame me, right? "

"It's okay." Zheng Haifei naturally wouldn't argue with him, business is not about benevolence and righteousness, let alone meeting each other in reality, the probability of this kind of fact is too small, and it is also a rare fate.

The two smiled and wiped away their grievances, Xiao Xi could watch Suo Suo openly, and Zheng Haifei gained a loyal fan and customer. This is a win-win situation, why not do it?

Xiao Xi put her uneasy heart back into her stomach, and finally got rid of a piece of her heart, and she can justifiably come to see and buy meat in the future.When he went back, Xiao Xi was still thinking that Uncle Liu said that Zheng Haifei had a weird personality, but he thought it was actually okay, it was just that he was a bit cold.
