Chapter 871
The dinner was very relaxed, and Sister Xia’s dishes tasted unexpectedly good. Li Shaoan and Xu Changfeng were having a very speculative chat.
This meal lasted almost an hour. Xu Changfeng told Li Shaoan a lot of things he encountered during long distances, and Li Shaoan was also quite interested in listening.
When the bill was settled, both of them rushed to pay.
"Brother Xu, let's have a lot of chatting. I'll treat you to this meal today."
"Why are you so embarrassed? I'll do it."
...
In the end, Xu Changfeng couldn't resist Li Shaoan, so he had to just do it.
"Okay, you'll ask for this meal. We two will have another meal when I come back from Wuyang."
"No problem, certain."
Before leaving, the two of them came outside the fried restaurant.
Xu Changfeng patted Li Shaoan on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, don't worry, brother, I have many friends in this market, so I will definitely help you find out the whereabouts of Zhao Xuemei."
Li Shaoan was very grateful and thanked him: "Brother Xu, you really helped me a lot."
"You're welcome, you're all friends when you go out. I have to rush to Wuyang, so I won't say much. Come back and see you." Xu Changfeng waved his hand, as if he was saying goodbye to Li Shaoan, and more like taking advantage of the opportunity to say goodbye to Li Shaoan.
"Bon Voyage."
Li Shaoan waved his hand to respond.
However, Zhang Haixia beside her did not say anything, but just watched Xu Changfeng leave quietly.
After solving the stomach problem, Li Shaoan was in trouble again. There was not even a guesthouse in this wilderness, so where can I spend the night?
"There is no place to go?" Zhang Haixia seemed to see Li Shaoan's predicament and took the initiative to smile at him.
"Well..." Li Shaoan felt very embarrassed.
"Why don't you go to my place and spend the whole night?" Zhang Haixia was very friendly.
"Sister Xia, we both? This is not very good..."
Zhang Haixia said angrily: "What are you thinking about? I still have a utility room. If you can stay there, just spend the night."
"Really? It doesn't matter if the utility room is not a problem. Just give me a place to stay."
Li Shaoan was overjoyed and thought that he was really going to sleep in the wilderness this time. Unexpectedly, he finally met a kind-hearted person like Sister Xia.
Following Zhang Haixia back to the small fried shop again, bypassing the simple store in front, and behind it was a simple house built of wooden boards.
There are two rooms in the wooden house, one where Zhang Haixia slept on her own, and the other one is piled with boxes of beer, honeycomb coal, tables, stools and other debris.
Seeing the situation inside, Li Shaoan said intimately: "It's true that it's true. It's a utility room."
Zhang Haixia was a little sorry and smiled and said, "It's really a bit messy here. If you think I'll help you sort it out if you can live."
Although I think this place is too simple, there are not so many things outside. It would be nice to have a place to sleep in today's situation. Li Shaoan immediately said, "If you can live or not, I'll just sort it out myself. Sister Xia, please rest."
Zhang Haixia rolled up her sleeves enthusiastically and said, "Anyway, there are no customers in the store now. I'll help you do it together. The two of them will be faster. You can also go to bed early. You should look exhausted."
Li Shaoan nodded: "It's a little bit."
Because this room is usually used to pile up debris, there is never a person living there, and there is very thick dust inside.
The key is that there are no windows in the room, so if you want to dissipate the air, you can only keep the door open. The smell of dust in the air cannot be dissipated for a long time.
Seeing Zhang Hongxia doing her best to help her, Li Shaoan couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Xia, you really have a good heart. You can also help me, a stranger."
Zhang Haixia smiled and said, "How can you say you are a stranger? You have eaten here and you are my guest. If the guests are in trouble, I can help you."
The two of them worked together for half an hour, and set up a flat area with boxes of beer in the utility room. Zhang Haixia found a reed mat from her room to put it on, and such a simple temporary bed was done.
Li Shaoan probably had to frown when he wanted to sleep in this bed, but today the situation was special. He was already tired and sleepy, so he just wanted to lie down and rest quickly.
"Looks like you're sleepy too, let's do it today. You're sleeping here, I'm out." Zhang Haixia raised her hand and wiped the sweat beads on her forehead.
"Sister Xia, aren't you resting yet?" Li Shaoan asked.
"It's still early. In my store, the driver of sports car came to eat in the middle of the night. I couldn't rest until two or three o'clock." Zhang Haixia smiled, revealing the helplessness of life in this smile.
After Zhang Haixia left, Li Shaoan was sleepy and couldn't stand it anymore. He fell on the bed made of the beer box and fell asleep.
The next morning, Li Shaoan woke up before dawn and slept in the beer box all night. Now his whole body was sore that he couldn't fall asleep anymore, so he just got up.
When he came outside the house and heard something happening in the store, Li Shaoan walked over and saw Zhang Haixia and a young man moving vegetables from the tricycle to the store.
"Sister Xia, you haven't slept yet?" Li Shaoan said in surprise.
"I woke up after sleeping, and I'm busy preparing breakfast now." Zhang Haixia smiled.
"It's only past six o'clock now. Sister Xia, how many hours of sleep are you sleeping on this day?"
"It's because of business, there's no way. If you want to sell breakfast, you have to get up earlier than the customers. Fortunately, it's only that morning. I'll find time to rest after the busy schedule."
After hearing this, Li Shaoan really felt that Zhang Haixia was a difficult woman. She ran this small shop alone and had to take care of everything in detail.
Zhang Haixia pulled the boy who moved things with her and introduced: "This is the chef in our store. He is from the same place as me. His family is not in good condition. He followed me out to make a living at a young age."
The young man grinned and smiled at Li Shaoan. He could not see too much bitterness in his face. He was more optimistic and novel when the innocent boy first entered society.
"Hello brother, my name is Xiao Jin."
"Hello, hello, my name is Li Shaoan, just call me Shaoan."
"Brother Shaoan, did you sleep here last night?"
"Yes, fortunately Sister Xia kindly took me in."
Xiao Jin smiled and said, "You are right. Sister Xia is a good person."
Seeing Zhang Haixia and Xiao Jin busy, Li Shaoan couldn't stand by and watch. He had the best of others yesterday, so he had to come forward to help no matter what.
In this way, the work of the two men became three people doing, which was done earlier than usual.
Xiao Jin started working in the kitchen. After dawn, many drivers and porters would come to have dinner.
Zhang Haixia winked at Li Shaoan and asked him to follow him to the back of the house.
Li Shaoan didn't know what Zhang Haixia had to say to him, so he followed him immediately.
