Chapter 14 On the way home
The car stopped at the door of the small restaurant. I don't know whether I was frightened all night or was dizzy from hunger. Just when I was about to push the door open, I felt dizzy. It seemed that I saw Boss Tan's small restaurant being surrounded by a group of people.
A thin layer of black air enveloped it.
"What's wrong with you? This car is stuck. I haven't had time to fix it. Just push it hard!" The bearded driver's rough voice woke me up from the inexplicable fear. I calmed down and said,
Only then did he realize that there was nothing unusual about the heavy weight. He secretly laughed at himself, opened the car door and walked out.
When I first walked into the small restaurant, which was buzzing with the sound of a blower, Boss Tan, wearing a white apron, came up to me with a smile on his face. When he recognized me, he couldn't help but froze, and his face immediately darkened.
, almost roaring: "Where did you go? You are the boss here and I am the buddy? Why don't you hurry up and prepare a big bone soup for me?"
This bitch must have started hearing the sound of the car and thought I was a customer. At this moment, his face immediately dropped. Although I hate Boss Tan very much, but when I think about such a wretched person, he actually has
For such a beautiful niece, I had to hold back my breath. I ran to the inner hall and softly uttered a sentence that I don't know if it was a curse or a sign of being close to Boss Tan: "Old boy, just wait, I will take care of you sooner or later.
When the goddess in my heart marries me, I will call you uncle!"
Looking at the big bones rolling with the boiling water in the big pot, I was thinking about Tan Min's smile, and suddenly the face of the hair salon girl Xiaoli, who was transformed into a paper mannequin, appeared in my mind. Pot
A large piece of bone popped out from inside, just like the white skeleton I saw when I had hallucinations in the cemetery. I screamed in fright and fell to the ground.
Amidst the sound of breaking porcelain, Boss Tan stood in front of me with a sad face. His eyes were so angry that they seemed to be on fire, and he yelled at me: "Xiao Mo, what the hell are you doing? You broke me so much."
Thing, how can I still run this business? I kindly took you in, but you are getting lazier and lazier. No one wants to eat the food you cook, and you have ruined my shop like this. I will settle your salary later and deduct it.
Get out of here, the broken bowl!"
My head suddenly buzzed, and I knew I had gotten into a big trouble. After a while, I woke up and looked at the mess on the ground. The resentment I felt towards Boss Tan suddenly burst out, and I shouted loudly at Boss Tan.
He yelled: "What's so great about a shabby restaurant? If you don't want me, I don't want to work anymore. If I were in my hometown, I wouldn't even look down on a small restaurant like yours."
Boss Tan was so angry that he trembled and grabbed the kitchen knife on the table. When I saw the shining kitchen knife, I couldn't help but feel timid. Just as we were confronting each other, the store door suddenly opened and Boss Tan
The ferocious look in my eyes all disappeared without a trace.
Tan Min, dressed in a plain white suit, appeared in the small restaurant with a stunned expression. She looked at Boss Tan and me and asked in surprise: "Uncle, Brother Mo, what is going on?"
Boss Tan pretended to smile and said: "Xiao Min, it's okay. This guy's skills are getting worse and worse, and he has broken so many things in my shop. This little shop will be defeated by him as soon as possible. Like this
My uncle can't afford to hire him, so he will pay off his salary immediately and tell him to get out!"
Tan Min was silent for a while and said softly: "Brother Mo, come here for a moment!"
As if listening to the fairy voice, I quickly came to Tan Min. She winked and walked to the door of the store, and I followed her outside. Tan Min said softly: "Brother Mo, I want to know why you are here to experience life.
A college student, or a standard wage earner?"
When I heard this, I felt sour in my heart, and sighed: "Xiao Min, it's a long story. Maybe I have both the identities you mentioned!"
Tan Min said softly: "Oh, since there is something unspeakable, I can't ask about your identity. I'm sorry, I couldn't contact you last night because I didn't have your phone number. After my classmates got together, they invited me to sing ktv after dinner.
Yes, and then he sent me directly to the hotel."
The image of the handsome guy in the sports car immediately flashed through my mind, and a burst of jealousy surged into my heart. I asked maliciously: "Xiao Min, you are the only one staying in the hotel, aren't you scared?"
Tan Min was stunned and said strangely: "Yes! After several classmates sent me to the hotel, they left. How could I be scared in the hotel?"
I was secretly happy: Tan Min, how do you know what I am thinking? I am afraid that you will destroy the image of the goddess in my heart! I pretended to be cool and authentic: "Xiao Min, I am really not suitable to work in your uncle's shop.
, I am ready to return to my hometown. Xiao Min, when will you return to Shanghai?"
Tan Min chuckled and said: "Brother Mo, I know that with your knowledge, you will never be willing to be a small catering clerk. After experiencing life and returning to your hometown, you will be more pragmatic when looking for a job.
I am here now because I want to say goodbye to my uncle, and my classmates have invited me to spend a few days in Xishuangbanna together!"
Another shadow cast over my heart. Although I didn't know if the guy driving the sports car was Tan Min's suitor, I already regarded him as a love rival for some reason. However, it was true that I wanted to leave here and prepare to go back to my hometown.
, I am ready to compromise with my family. With their support, I will have the confidence to pursue Tan Min as a wealthy young man.
I said insincerely: "Xiao Min, let's see you again then. I wish you have a good time!". Tan Min smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Mo, please be happy too. My uncle feels sorry for this store. He
He is a rough man, and if he scolds you, don’t take it to heart, for my sake!”
I nodded, mustered up the courage and said with a half-serious smile: "Xiao Min, if one day I invite you to go on a self-driving trip, don't refuse me!"
Tan Min giggled and said: "Okay! When little Mo can buy a car and go on a self-driving trip, it means your career is successful! Little Mo, work hard, you will not only invite me to play, but also invite me
Eat delicious food from all over the world!”
I was overjoyed. Although I knew these were polite words from Tan Min, or more likely words of comfort from her because she felt sorry for seeing Boss Tan being so cruel to me, I felt very comfortable and full of hope when I heard them.
.
I smiled evilly and said, "Okay! Xiao Min, you can't go back on your word!"
Tan Min smiled and said: "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to say a few words to my uncle before I leave. After a while, my classmates will call me to rush me!"
When Tan Min and I entered the store again, Boss Tan had already spread out a dark account book on the table. His thick fingers pointed at the account book and said: "Xiao Mo, I settled the settlement for you a few days ago.
Part of my salary is still more than 3,000 yuan. After deducting the things you broke just now, I will give you 3,000 yuan. From now on, we will stay on the same page and go our separate ways!"
Without even looking at the account book, I took the money from Boss Tan and stuffed it into my trouser pocket. While Tan Min and her uncle were talking about something, I walked into my small room to pack my luggage.
When I packed up my things and came out, I saw Tan Min sitting at the bar, surfing the Internet on Boss Tan's computer. I thought: It would be great if I could get Tan Min's QQ account. We can communicate on it.
Communication is closer in reality.
While I was thinking about it, the store door opened and a few people walked in. As soon as those people entered, they shouted: "Hurry up and order three bowls of noodles, it's almost too late to go to work!"
Boss Tan was busy in the kitchen. I had an idea and said to Tan Min: "Xiao Min, there are customers in the store. Go and greet them and take the money!"
Tan Min was stunned. When he saw me carrying the travel bag, he suddenly realized that I was now a passerby and no longer a clerk in this store. Naturally, I couldn't touch the customers' money.
Tan Min quickly stood up and walked towards the customers. At this moment, I quickly grabbed the mouse, clicked on QQ, and immediately memorized Tan Min's QQ number.
When I walked past Tan Min, I gently said to her: "Xiao Min, I'm leaving. I wish you a happy time. But don't forget your promise. When I buy a car, I will invite you to come with me."
Self drive trip!”
Tan Min smiled and said: "Brother Mo, I wish you are happy too! Be careful on the way home, find a good job, and have a successful career!"
I politely said thank you and reluctantly left Boss Tan's small restaurant. Across the road, I hid behind the trees and stared at the small restaurant, really unwilling to give up the opportunity to see Tan Min for the last time.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun had already risen very high. My legs were sore and numb, and I was sweating all over from the heat. Only then did I see Tan Min walking out of the small restaurant, hailing a taxi, and walking away.
The earth disappeared from my eyes.
With 3,000 yuan in my arms, I eagerly wanted to return to my hometown and regain my former image of being a rich, handsome man, so that I could launch a courtship offensive with the goddess in my heart.
With only Tan Min in my mind, I finally took the train and arrived at Shanghai Station. When I stepped out of the platform, thinking that I was only over a hundred kilometers away from home, my heart began to get excited.
I was finally going to see my parents. For more than half a year, I have been missing my relatives almost day and night. However, this excitement did not last long, and a sense of fear immediately took over my heart. I was extremely confused.
I want to get my parents' love and a lot of money, but my conscience cannot tolerate me ignoring the evil acts committed by people in the village, including my parents.
After hesitating for a long time, I gave up the idea of going home immediately and stayed in a relatively clean small hotel near the station.
After taking off my luggage, I lay down on the large and soft bed in the guest room, thinking about the many things that had happened in the past six months.
I accidentally saw the large cosmetic mirror in the guest room, and I was shocked. I saw that my face was no longer as dark as it was half a year ago. Just when I was feeling depressed, I suddenly looked in the mirror.
