Chapter 45
"You go?" Mingxiu was suspicious.
She wouldn't be too confused if anyone put forward this, but Xie Zhan is not here.
He knew from his whole body that he could not endure hardships. He also saw what the shop in the town looked like. The conditions were absolutely not as good as the village. How could he be willing?
Xie Zhan's eyes were slightly cold, "Don't you believe me?"
"It's not that I don't trust it, but..." Mingxiu was embarrassed for a moment, and finally explained it clearly, "There are so many things in the town, so you should stay at home."
Xie Zhan is not from their family. Mingxiu will not be polite when he should ask him for help, but now Mingxiu can obviously handle these things himself.
It would be a bit inappropriate to ask Xie Zhan to go to the town to help him see the store.
To put it bluntly, Mingxiu just treats Xie Zhan as a friend who can rely on, not a family member.
There is still a difference.
Xie Zhan felt relieved, and at the same time he was a little disappointed.
He thought he was different from Mingxiu, but he didn't expect that he was still thinking too much.
Seeing Xie Zhan keeping silent, Mingxiu felt a little uneasy and even regretted that Xie Zhan would not bother to frame her family. Since he wanted to go to the town, it would be fine. When he was impatient, he would come back.
It is true that there is no need to say the words of rejection to make him unhappy.
Before Mingxiu could figure out whether to give in on the spot, Xie Zhan spoke first.
"I can learn some news more easily in the town. If there is any trouble in your family, I will definitely not stand by and watch as much as I can." Xie Zhan said so.
Although he was vaguely concealed, it was considered the truth after all. Although the news about the border town was still a bit blocked for him, he didn't know where to grab it compared to Tubao Village!
For Xie Zhan, the village is the safest place, but the town is a perfect point for safer information circulation.
This means that Xiu understood that Xie Zhan was going, not because of the various reasons she thought about, but because of convenience. There is no doubt about this.
"Then you went to the town..."
She was very worried about when Xie Zhan would leave without saying goodbye, so she caught her off guard.
After all, Mingxiu is still a very selfish person. Instead of caring about other people’s affairs, it is better to care about his own affairs.
Xie Zhan is so old, he will never lose himself.
Hearing this, a smile flashed in Xie Zhan's eyes.
He did not see the wrong person.
"Don't worry, if I want to leave one day, I will definitely notify you in advance."
The Ming family has not many people, so it is normal for Mingxiu to have such concerns.
Xie Zhan thought that it would not be too long before he left.
It is natural for her to be prepared with such a mind.
"That's good. I'll turn around and ask my mother to prepare some clothes for you to change, and you'll take them there."
After Ming's mother knew the two young proposals, she felt helpless, "Did you let him live in the town alone?"
Sure enough, I am still a little younger. Even though I have become sensible, I still don’t think about many things carefully.
"Is there anything wrong?" Mingxiu was confused.
"He lives in the town by himself, it's fine to eat, but who will wash his clothes and bedding?" Ming's mother rubbed her eyebrows and spent so long with Xie Zhan. She knew Xie Zhan's housework level. It would be nice to wash clothes without tearing them. As for other tasks, except for the accident of chopping wood, it was a mess.
Let such a person live alone?
She really didn't know whether Xiu believed Xie Zhan or was deliberately trying to mess with him.
Obviously Mingxiu thought of this weight, and she glanced at Xie Zhan from the bottom of her eyes, with a smile in her eyes, "What's the matter? If you have time to go to the town, I'll wash it for him."
She could still handle a few clothes. In order to save water and electricity bills in her previous life, she washed her clothes a lot.
Ming's mother was stunned and then laughed, "Okay, okay, just make sure you can arrange it, then I won't care."
After saying that, before Mingxiu could notice something strange, she ran away without stopping, saying that she was preparing Xie Zhan for the clothes she wanted to change.
"It's weird." Mingxiu curled her lips, but did not take Ming's mother's weirdness to heart, but asked Xie Zhan, "When are you planning to go to the town?"
Xie Zhan was stunned and did not react at all.
"I'm coming back to my senses! What are you thinking?"
"Ah? What did you say just now? Sorry, I didn't hear it clearly at once."
He lowered his head and looked at the woman beside him, with the emotions in his eyes so complicated.
Helplessly, Mingxiu repeated his words again and said, "If you go there these two days, you will help me see how the shop is being decorated. My mother has already started learning recipes. The faster the opening day, the better."
"Okay, I get it."
Looking at Mingxiu's back as she left, Xie Zhan's eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking.
...
If we talk about cooking, Ming's mother is a good player. Of course, she is just comparing with the women in the village.
But the recipe Mingxiu asked her to learn was something Ming's mother had never heard of or seen before.
In some places, there is even another way, and Ming’s mother can only start from scratch.
Some dishes can't even succeed in one go, they can only repeat them over and over again.
In recent days, all the food at Ming’s family has been successful or failed restaurant dishes.
Fortunately, the kitchen is well-established, and even the failed dishes are not very unpalatable.
Even because of the good ingredients, they have gained a lot of weight recently!
"Xiu'er, Xie Zhan has lived in the town alone for two days. Why don't you go to the town to have a look?" Ming's father came to Mingxiu, who was studying the recipe with Ming's mother.
Seeing Ming's mother frowning slightly at him, Ming's father was a little uncomfortable, and before Mingxiu spoke, he said: "Yesterday, the village chief told me that when the shopkeeper Xu wanted to see you, you could go and see what was going on."
This was a bit more reasonable, and Ming's mother's brows gradually slowed down. She knew her husband's meaning and persuaded her, "Although the business of Xianxianglou has been given to the village chief, we have no reason to ignore it. They have come to the door, so you should go and have a look."
"I understand, I'll go tomorrow." Mingxiu also wanted to know how it was on the other side of Xie Zhan, mainly because she wanted to know the progress of the decoration.
As for the village chief’s affairs, it’s just by the way.
What happened to Manager Xu, she could tell most of the things she had to do with guessing.
Seeing her reply, Ming's father breathed a sigh of relief, but Ming's mother did not forget to mention, "Even if there is something wrong in the town, I will remember to come back before dark."
Even if she and Ming’s father had the intention to match Mingxiu and Xie Zhan, they would not be able to see her unmarried daughter alone with Xie Zhan under the same roof.
That is due to Mingxiu's reputation!
Mingxiu nodded, "I know what I know in my heart, don't worry."
The next morning, the village chief felt relieved when he saw Mingxiu heading to Xianxianglou.
