Jianbao Lingyan
Chapter 25
When the two returned to the hotel, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Xu Wei received a message from the front desk that Chen Zhibei and Qu Feng had something to do at night and would not be coming back.
Xu Wei thought, eating alone is really boring, the food in the hotel must be very expensive, so she wanted to go out to find a supermarket to buy instant noodles, just in time to go back and read a book.
And the set of zodiac dolls that I bought today, Xu Wei hasn't looked at them carefully yet, so I will naturally have to take a good look at them tonight.
Lisa was shocked when she heard Xu Wei's plan, and said, "I know a good snack, Mr. Xu, eating too much cup noodles is not good for your health."
Xu Wei thought so too, Chen Zhibei didn't let him eat instant noodles when he was at home, saying that there were too many additives in it.As for the Xiangjiang snacks, Xu You really hadn't seen them before, so he quickly agreed, cleaned up a bit, and went to a tea restaurant about half an hour away from the hotel with Lisa.
"Boss, two wontons, one spicy escargot." Lisa is very familiar with this street, introducing the characteristics of each snack bar while walking.
Suddenly, Xu You saw a halo in a small shop selling wontons, Wen Runde's white halo, which almost illuminated the entire shop.
Xu Wei stopped outside the small shop, told Lisa that he had never eaten wontons, and pointed to this small shop. Lisa saw that this was the shop, and agreed, and told Xu Wei that she often came to this shop.
The owner of the small shop is a couple. The proprietress and Lisa are very familiar. When she saw Lisa, she said, "Wonton has more seaweed and no green onions."
"Yes, thank you lady boss."
When the wontons were served, Lisa handed a pair of convenient chopsticks to Xu Wei, "This restaurant's wontons are very famous, and they are full of ingredients and clean. I've been eating here for more than a year."
Xu Wei took the chopsticks, thanked her, and took a bite of the noodles, which were very chewy. The soup was bone soup with a strong taste. Xu Wei gave a thumbs up to Lisa and the proprietress.
When the spicy escargot was served, the proprietress gave another shrimp ball.
"Ah, lady boss, today is so good." Lisa looked at the shrimp balls and exclaimed, "Isn't this your signature dish, is it limited every day?"
"I'll see you off, today is the last day we have a stall, and we won't be able to eat in the future." Although the proprietress was smiling, her expression was very sad.
"What's the matter, you guys are doing a great job, you're so popular."
"The child at home is sick and borrowed a usury loan. Now I can't repay the loan, so I can only sell the shop to pay off the debt." The proprietress said while clearing the table next to her.
"How much is it? I need to sell the store. Now the housing prices are soaring. If I can hold on, maybe there will be a surplus." Lisa looks like a career-oriented woman, but unexpectedly she is very warm-hearted. .
"30, although the house price has risen sharply, but our location is not good, we can't sell at a high price." The proprietress is also a very budget-conscious woman, so she naturally knows what Lisa said, but so what, loan sharks won't listen to you say this.
"Miss proprietress, is that pot in your house for sale?" Xu Wei felt very sympathetic to the situation of the proprietress when she heard the two women lamenting the world.
The proprietress looked along Xu Wei's fingers, wondering what Xu Wei was looking at, but she didn't expect it to be the money jar she usually used to hold small change.
"It was left by my man's mother, and we usually use it to hold small change. If you like, I can ask my man." Then, the proprietress shouted: "Ah Fu, Ah Fu, your Whether the jar is sold or not, there are customers who want to buy it."
"It's not for sale, my mother left it." Ah Fu, the boss, replied loudly from the kitchen.
"I'm sorry sir, it's not for sale. My man has a very stubborn temper. I always listen to him at home." The proprietress explained apologetically, but she spoke Mandarin with a southern accent.
"It's okay, buying and selling, if one party disagrees, it's a forced buy and sell. But the lady boss, you speak Mandarin very well, very authentic." Xu Wei was not in a hurry, and chatted with the lady boss.
"I came here with my family when I was a teenager. It's been more than ten years. My brother sounds like a northerner, but our family is from Fujian." The proprietress is actually very happy to meet people from the inland.
"That's right, but now I'm in Shanghai with my relatives, this time I'm here to learn more."
"That's not bad. I haven't left since I came here. I wanted to visit Treasure Island in the early years, but the children were born one by one, and I haven't been able to go."
"How old are the boss's children? I think you are very young." Xu Wei began to try to say nice things to the woman, and if he paid attention, he would find that the base of his ears had started to turn red.
"There are four. The sick one is the third one. He has been naughty since he was a child. He fell from a tree and hit his head." Speaking of the children, the proprietress became depressed again.
"Ma'am, let me tell you the truth. I think that pot in your house is an antique. You know, antiques are very valuable. I like it very much, so I want to buy it. I heard you chatting with Lisa and know that you are short of money. 20 Wan, how about you sell me the jar?"
Originally Xu Er planned to buy it for 10 yuan, but it was really difficult to see the other party's family, so he added some, anyway, he would not suffer.
"This..." The proprietress was a little moved by Xu Wei's words, but her husband didn't know if she could change her mind.
"Well, lady boss, I have a business card with my phone number on it. If you decide to sell it, just call me."
Lisa was paying attention to the development of the matter when Xu Wei said that she wanted to buy a jar. Seeing that the proprietress was a little loose, she put together her business card and meal money and handed it to the proprietress.
His eyes signaled Xu You, and he left this matter to himself.
It was only now that Xu You remembered that she had promised Lisa this morning that she would take care of everything she bought.
The proprietress took the money and business card at a loss, not understanding how the pot at home became an antique, and it was an antique treasure worth 20 yuan.
Maybe this difficulty at home can also be overcome?
The proprietress thought uncertainly.
After that, Lisa sent Xu Wei back to the hotel and went home, and the two made an appointment to buy the things on the shopping list tomorrow.
Shopping is a lot of work, especially if you're going with a woman.
From your point of view it's a chore, but from a woman's point of view it's the joy of life.In the past, Xu You didn't understand why every time the third aunt said that she was going shopping, the third uncle would find various reasons to escape.But now, Xu Wei felt that she had a deep understanding of why the third uncle was so afraid of the third aunt.
In the car Lisa was driving, the rear compartment and the row of seats behind were already full of things. Xu Wei lay on the car body, feeling that all the joints in her body were falling apart, and soon, she would become a puddle. Ooze, I don't even have the strength to lie on my stomach.
"Xu Sheng, why don't we continue tomorrow?" In fact, Lisa can still go shopping, but seeing that the employer has no strength at all, she had no choice but to stop thinking about shopping.
"Continue?" Xu Wei felt that she was going crazy.
"It's fine in two days, now the only thing left is jewelry. I know there is a street where several big gold stores in Xiangjiang are located." Lisa replied.
"Then it will be two days." Jewelry or something, shouldn't be so tiring, Xu Wei thought silently.
"Go back, the proprietress of the wanton noodle should be waiting at the hotel." Xu Wei remembered that at noon, someone called Lisa's eldest brother, and it sounded like the proprietress from yesterday.
"I'm already at the hotel, but Xu Sheng, please be quiet for a while, let me do everything."
"No problem. I'll go straight to sleep when I get back. I've already withdrawn the money, 50. I'll give it to you later."
Because before this, Xu You didn't know that there was a so-called credit card business, so Xu You took out all the money and put it in the bag.
I bought things for my third aunt today, and many of them sold two or three copies. I plan to share one share when I get home, especially Nini. I haven’t seen the little girl for a long time. As an older brother, Xu Er feels that he should buy more for his younger sister. something.
There are also some sneakers and sportswear that boys will like, and I also bought a lot according to age.
When the two returned to the hotel, the proprietress had already arrived at the hotel with two middle-aged people. The three of them did not enter the hotel, but stood not far from the hotel entrance, looking at every car parked at the hotel entrance until Xu Wei and Lisa got out of the car.
"Miss Lisa, I brought a jar from my house today, would you like to have a look?"
The proprietress trotted to stop Lisa who was about to go in, and pointed to the man holding the cloth bag behind her.
Lisa looked at the two men behind the proprietress, the one with the cloth bag, she knew him, was the owner of the wonton shop.
"Okay, come in with me."
Xu You was very tired, but in front of outsiders, he still held on. Fortunately, he just took a rest in the car, so he didn't slump on the sofa when he returned to the room.
But ever since entering the door, Xu Wei sat beside her without saying a word, watching Lisa and the three of them negotiating back and forth.
It is undeniable that Lisa is very talented in bargaining. Yesterday, she asked for 20 yuan, but the other party asked for 100 million yuan.
But Lisa was not in a hurry at all, but increased the price a little bit, which forced the other party to lower the price a little bit.
In the end, Lisa sold for 40.
Xu Wei was quite satisfied. Originally, his psychological price was 50 yuan, but he saved 10 yuan. Before going back, he must give Lisa a big red envelope.
The proprietress and his wife are also very satisfied. After removing the money returned to usury, they still have 10 yuan left, which can be exchanged for things in the store.
Holding the newly acquired Chenghua Doucai, Xu Er thought to himself, this time he might be able to appreciate the elegance of the Ming Dynasty.
In the evening, Chen Zhibei returned to his room after a busy day, saw the lights outside the bedroom kept on, and the food on the coffee table, and suddenly felt that he was not so tired.
Xu Wei thought, eating alone is really boring, the food in the hotel must be very expensive, so she wanted to go out to find a supermarket to buy instant noodles, just in time to go back and read a book.
