Chapter 42 The Blind Man Comes to Eat
The next day, Xiao Bing sent Zhang Yizhi away, and then returned to the noodle shop to continue working. After school started, the business of the noodle shop did not decrease too much. The students had indeed gone to school, and they could only eat at lunch Or you can only come here at dinner time, but the word of mouth of Xiao Bing's hand-pulled noodles has spread, and many non-college students come here admiringly, so that the business of the small noodle shop continues to be booming.
After losing one leaf, everyone's work became even more arduous. After a busy day, at night, Ye Zi came to help, and Su Xiaoxiao also came.
Seeing Ye Zi and Su Xiaoxiao walking in front and back, Xiao Bing smiled while kneading his dough: "Not bad, here are two free laborers, one of you can help Hongmei, and the other can go to the back kitchen to help Wang." Auntie and Erhuo are so busy, they are really tired after a busy day."
Ye Zi and Su Xiaoxiao said to Li Hong almost at the same time: "Let me help you..."
Then the two girls glanced at each other, Ye Zi's eyes were somewhat thoughtful, while Su Xiaoxiao's eyes refused to back down at all.
Standing there, Li Hong was at a loss. One was the owner's girlfriend and the other was the owner's wife's daughter. Who should I listen to?
Su Xiaoxiao doesn't know why she and Ye Zi got into a fight. Don't look at one who helps out in the back kitchen and the other in the front store. Soldiers have nothing to say or something.
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes refused to give way, but Ye Zi had a smile on her face, and said with a sweet voice: "I have never done such tasks as washing vegetables since I was a child, and this time I came to your house In the store, I was afraid that everyone would be too tired, so I came here to help with the busy work, Xiaoxiao must be reluctant to send me to the back kitchen, am I right?"
When Ye Zi said this, Su Xiaoxiao was a little at a loss. Although what he said was polite, the meaning was obvious. This is your Su family's store, and your Su family is making money. I will not take your money first. Salary, the second is to come and volunteer to help. If you force me to do all the work I don't like, does it feel right?
Su Xiaoxiao is also a smart girl, of course she can understand this, and she can't help but feel a little annoyed, although the other party took me into the army, but I was indeed caught by someone, how could I suddenly be so erratic? It's as if I am a person who likes to care about everything.
Su Xiaoxiao is also a girl who can afford to let go, so naturally she will not be entangled in the problem of face, she sighed in her heart, but with a somewhat embarrassed smile on her face, she said: "I am also afraid of going forward The business in the store is too busy, and you will be tired, so, then I will go to the back kitchen to help Aunt Wang."
Ye Zi smiled sweetly: "Then let's perform our duties."
With the addition of these two vital forces, everyone immediately relaxed a lot, but Xiao Bing's workload did not decrease in the slightest, and he was the only one who could make signature ramen in the entire store...
Seeing that it was getting darker and darker, and the shop was preparing to close the shop after the group of customers left, a tall man walked in from the outside.
As soon as the man stepped into the store, Xiao Bing looked up at him. The man was in his thirties, wearing a shabby beige underwear, a pair of canvas shoes on his feet, and a black blindfold on his eyes.
Many people were attracted by the blindfold on his eyes. It was a thick black blindfold, and it was impossible for the naked eye to see a little light through the blindfold.
Li Hong and Li Jing were a little surprised when they looked at this man, Ye Zi felt some unusual aura from the man, Xiao Bing's eyes were very calm.
The man seemed to be able to see everything around him through the blindfold, and even "looked" in Xiao Bing's direction, and then walked towards the front desk expressionlessly: "Please bring me a bowl of ramen."
Li Hong looked at him, feeling chills all over for some reason, and reluctantly said: "Okay, you can find a seat to sit down first."
The man didn't speak, turned around, and was about to walk towards the empty table, Li Hong suddenly asked in a strange way: "You wear blindfolds on your eyes, can you see the road?"
The man's footsteps paused, and he said in a cold tone: "I'm blind, does it make a difference to me if I can see the road clearly?"
Is there a difference?
no difference.
Li Hong suddenly felt colder. He was talking to a blind man. It is not uncommon to talk to a blind man, but the blind man was looking at him when he was talking, and he didn't need a cane to walk. It was as if everything around him was clearly in front of his eyes, which was really weird and terrifying.
This man is naturally Zhu Mingyu, the mysterious blind man next to Fairy Peony, King of the North.
Zhu Mingyu sat down slowly, almost everyone could feel the icy aura on his body, Ye Zi walked up to Xiao Bing, and whispered: "This person is so strange..."
Xiao Bing glanced at Zhu Mingyu, rubbed his face and said to Ye Zi: "Don't provoke this man, don't think that he can't see anything, he actually sees better than a healthy person, although his eyes are blind, his heart is not. blind."
Zhu Mingyu seemed to have heard what Xiao Bing was saying, and began to look towards Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing continued to work on the ramen in his hand. He could feel that Zhu Mingyu was coming towards him. From the time he came in, the first sight He just looked at himself, but Xiao Bing didn't intend to take the initiative to cause trouble, and if the enemy doesn't move, he won't move.
After a while, the ramen in Xiao Bing's hand was ready, and he took out a bowl and asked Ye Zi to bring it to Zhu Mingyu.
Ye Zi put the ramen in front of Zhu Mingyu and said, "Eat."
"Thank you." Zhu Mingyu agreed calmly and indifferently, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and said flatly, "Tell me and your master that his Tai Chi skills are very good."
Ye Zi smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Bing is right. Although your eyes are blind, your heart is not blind."
"Oh, really? That's what he said of me... Say thank you for me."
"Definitely." Ye Zi agreed, returned to Xiao Bing, and told Xiao Bing about the conversation he had just had with Zhu Mingyu. Xiao Bing took a deep look at Zhu Mingyu.
Originally, Xiao Bing thought that Zhu Mingyu was looking for trouble, but he didn't expect that Zhu Mingyu was really serious about eating ramen, chewing slowly, and after eating, he paid the bill and left.
He walked out of the noodle shop step by step, looking at his back, Xiao Bing's pupils shrank slightly, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, this blind man... is a bit interesting, he seems to be an opponent.
The busy day was finally over. After a busy day, everyone was too lazy to go home for dinner. It happened that Wang Guifang had prepared the meal, and all the people sat around a table in the noodle shop to eat.
Su Xiaoxiao was on the left of Xiao Bing, and Ye Zi was on the right. The others also sat down. Thinking of the smell of gunpowder when Su Xiaoxiao and Ye Zi met at night, Li Hong and Zhang Jing always felt uncomfortable when they looked at the two of them. Too much the same, could it be that the two of them are jealous because of Brother Bing?
Su Xiaoxiao didn't know that they would think so. If she knew, she would definitely not admit it. After all, in Su Xiaoxiao's heart, although she already had a good impression of Xiao Bing, she still believed that Xiao Bing was a big Scoundrel, but maybe the word "big villain" should be put in quotation marks now, but she hasn't noticed it yet.
The meal was a bit strange, Ye Zi and Xiao Bing were both normal, Xiao Bing would pick up vegetables for Ye Zi from time to time, and Ye Zi would chatter non-stop, but Su Xiaoxiao seldom talked, and kept his head in his mouth all the time. The whole person was as cold as usual, Li Hong and Zhang Jing looked at Su Xiaoxiao from time to time, and Erhuo was eating voraciously as usual, one bowl after another...
The others had eaten half, Xiao Bing was the first to eat first, put down his chopsticks, and said with a smile: "I can see that our small noodle restaurant can no longer accommodate so many customers, I feel that it is necessary to expand it, expand it existing scale."
Only then did Su Xiaoxiao break the silence, and began to speak, with a bit of disdain in a cold tone: "It's easy to say, expansion needs money!"
Xiao Bing said with a smile: "Don't think too much about money, I have a way to solve it, the most important thing is what do you think?"
Wang Guifang said: "I think it is feasible. Everyone has seen the business in the past few days. Every day when it is time to eat, there is a long queue outside, because many of them are college students around, and they have to go back to school early. I went to class, so I couldn’t afford to wait at all, so I had to go to other places to eat. In the past two days, we also calculated the accounts, and now the daily turnover has reached two or three times as much as before. I don’t think it will take a few days , business will be even more prosperous.”
Zhang Jing sighed and said, "I'm not too tired, but now there are only a few of us, and we can't be busy at all. In the back kitchen, only Aunt Wang can cook. It is really difficult for one person to serve so many customers. It is easy for me to be in charge of the cash register. Hongmei can't take care of so many customers in front of me alone. I think not only the store needs to be expanded, but also a few more talents must be recruited. "
Xiao Bing said with a smile: "I will talk to Aunt Li about your opinion. Let's stop here first. I will go to the hospital tomorrow to discuss the expansion of the hospital with Aunt Li. By the way, I will also give you performance bonuses. After finalizing it, everyone has worked too hard this month, and we promised a 30% increase before, and it will not change."
No matter what Xiao Bing said, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but want to sarcasm a few words, but seeing Xiao Bing's confident demeanor, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and found something for himself in his heart. An excuse, anyway, he is doing business for my family, even if it is expanded, the problem of money is something that he can figure out a way to sit back and enjoy the benefits, so what should I worry about....
After dinner, because Su Xiaoxiao was here, Ye Zi left by car, and everyone else went back separately, Xiao Bing and Su Xiaoxiao walked home together.
The two walked together, because of Su Xiaoxiao's cold temper, the atmosphere was really awkward, Xiao Bing took the initiative to provoke the topic, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, you came to help, otherwise the store is really busy."
"Well, your ramen skills are very good, better than my old man." Su Xiaoxiao gave a rare compliment, and then closed her mouth again.
It is really not easy to hear a nice sentence from this little girl, Xiao Bing was planning to use this to say a few more words, trying to open up the conversation with this cold little girl, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke again : "Come with me for a drink."
"Um?"
"Roadside barbecue stalls will do."
