When Xia Qingyuan went to the kitchen, Shen Yizhou was scooping two ladles of hot water into the basin.
Seeing Xia Qingyuan come in, she said, "When you wash your face later, add some hot water.
I made breakfast and came over to eat after washing up."
Xia Qingyuan saw the light look on his eyebrows, as if he was not affected by last night at all.
She didn't mention what happened last night again and responded: "Oh."
However, while carrying the water, she quietly glanced at his figure.
Well, much stronger than that Li Guanghua.
She couldn't help but shrink her neck, thinking that she would probably cry worse than Xue Caifeng.
Shen Yizhou took the basin from her smoothly; "What's wrong?"
Xia Qingyuan suddenly came back from her thoughts and said hurriedly: "I didn't think about anything."
The two of them finished their breakfast quickly, and Shen Yizhou was about to go to work.
Before going out, he told me: "I have put all the money at home in the desk drawer in my room. It is up to you to decide how to spend it in the future.
In addition, I will find a time to sell the gold bars and use them as capital for your business.
In short, you can buy whatever you want, and you don’t have to save money for me."
What he said was really in line with Xia Qingyuan's feelings.
Xia Qingyuan responded with a smile: "Okay."
Finally, Shen Yizhou added: "I have something to do at noon, so I won't come back for dinner.
Zhou Yang will bring it back to you when lunch comes."
After saying that, he picked up his lunch box and left.
Xia Qingyuan's mood was like the weather in June, which suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy.
I'm afraid he said so much just to pave the way for the last sentence, right?
Could it be that he still remembers what happened last night and is hiding from him here?
Xia Qingyuan's annoyance gradually grew in her heart, but she had already gone to work, so she could only vent her anger on breakfast.
*
Xia Qingyuan returned to the room and found the drawer Shen Yizhou mentioned, only to see a key inserted in it.
She turned the key to open the drawer and found that in addition to the gold bars dug out and the money given by her father and elder brother, there was also a small iron box.
She opened it and saw that it was a stack of RMB.
Xia Qingyuan took it out and counted it, there were more than two hundred and eighty yuan.
Is this something Shen Yizhou saved by himself?
She knew that Shen Yizhou had a monthly salary of sixty yuan. After deducting the eight yuan he paid to Shen Xingjia every month and the forty yuan he sent home, he probably only had twelve yuan left.
She thought that these must be some bonuses in addition to the salary he usually saved.
Xia Qingyuan took out the money Xia Youming gave her and counted it, and found that there was one hundred yuan.
She felt sour in her heart. She didn't know how the two of them got this money.
She quickly took out some money she had brought from Xishui Village, and there was still more than forty yuan left.
So, excluding gold, she now has nearly 430 yuan on hand.
In addition to working in a restaurant in her previous life, she also worked in a garment factory in Guangdong Province for several years, and finally worked in the jade industry with a master master.
In the first few years of reform and opening up, many elements and industries are accepting external influences and impacts in an inclusive manner, so she originally planned to start in the clothing business and then move to the jade and jewelry industry.
But doing this business also requires costs. Putting aside the travel expenses and time to pick up the goods, she needs to have sufficient funds to purchase the goods.
If you sell the gold bars, maybe the capital will be enough.
But the current gold market conditions don't seem to be very good, so she wants to keep the gold bars and sell them later.
So, she had to think of other ways.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a knock at the door.
Xia Qingyuan quickly put the things into the drawer and said, "Here he comes."
She walked out and saw a thin woman calling her at the door.
The woman is about thirty years old, with a slender white face, some deep eye sockets, and some bags under the eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips with no color.
Her hair was tied back casually, she was wearing a simple cloth shirt, and her face was calm and kind.
The moment she spoke, Xia Qingyuan also guessed her identity.
She smiled at Xia Qingyuan: "You are Qingyuan, right?
My name is Jiang Peilan. Section Chief Shen told our man yesterday to let me come over and take you around.
There happens to be a market day today, do you want to go with us?"
Xia Qingyuan also smiled and responded: "Okay, I'm really sorry to trouble you."
I originally thought that Shen Yizhou would just explain it to her, but unexpectedly, he actually ran to tell the man.
The depression caused by him just now has finally dissipated.
She welcomed Jiang Peilan into the living room, took out more than 20 yuan in change from the drawer in the room, locked it, and invited her to go out together.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the door, they met Xue Caifeng.
Her lazy look showed that she had been plucked.
She smiled and asked: "Ah, where are you two going?"
Jiang Peilan didn't hide it, and said directly: "Isn't there a market today? I just wanted to go and see it together."
Hearing this, Xue Caifeng's eyes swept over the two of them without leaving a trace, and then said: "So that's it.
Section Chief Shen’s wife just arrived yesterday, and you’ve become so familiar with her so quickly.”
Her words directly embarrassed Jiang Peilan. Just as he was about to speak, Xia Qingyuan said: "It was our Yi Zhou who told Peilan's man to take me for a walk."
Xue Caifeng and Yuan Bei thought it was Jiang Peilan who came here on her own to curry favor with Xia Qingyuan.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yizhou left the person next door alone and went to the back row to call Jiang Peilan, which really made her very unhappy.
Moreover, she remembered that she expressed her kindness to Xia Qingyuan yesterday and asked her to call her when necessary.
So, what's going on?
Was she disliked by the couple?
When I think about it, I feel a little uncomfortable.
But she was concerned about the superior-subordinate relationship between Shen Yizhou and her men, so she had no choice but to swallow her breath, and then smiled at them and said, "I just want to buy some things, let's go together."
Without waiting for their consent, he turned around and entered the house. As he walked, he said, "Wait for me to change my clothes. I'll be here soon."
Xia Qingyuan;"..."
To be honest, she was not very willing to be with Xue Caifeng.
Although she was always smiling, her smile never reached her eyes.
And those eyes, always showing some restlessness that is inevitable.
Jiang Peilan smiled helplessly at Xia Qingyuan and signaled her not to mind.
Xia Qingyuan also raised her eyebrows, let's just do it together, is she still afraid of her?
