Chapter 160 Pulse as strong as an ox
"Don't get close to her anymore, it's embarrassing!"
After Zhong Xiang finished speaking, he looked angrily and stern.
"Don't think I don't know. You just wanted to take advantage of me. You stood there silently the whole time."
Now he felt ashamed again, simply because he was irritated by Xu Yiyi's indifferent attitude.
"you……"
On the street, Zhong Xiang looked back and noticed the gazes of the people around him.
I just felt more embarrassed and left with my sleeves swung.
"Mother, please stop being angry with Father."
Zhong Congyun followed behind, whispering advice.
"I was angry with him? He was the one who wouldn't give in. If he really thought what I did was wrong, he wouldn't have stopped me earlier. He waited until I said I didn't want to pay, and then he got angry at me after we left the restaurant. Your father is such a coward."
Ma Rongjuan snorted coldly. They have been married for so many years.
She saw it clearly a long time ago, didn’t she?
"I'm not saying this to you, son. You should pay for meals. If you go to Wufu Restaurant again, don't act like you did today."
Zhong Congyun hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak.
Ma Rongjuan looked embarrassed at the sight, "Why should I give her money? When we were still engaged, she was willing to give you everything and said she would honor me in the future. Now I just ate a little of her food, and I didn't ask her to give the restaurant away."
Zhong Congyun opened his mouth, but suddenly didn't know what to say.
He knew that his mother's reasoning was unreasonable.
Hesitated again and again.
"Mother, you were talking about before. Now, there is nothing between her and me."
Zhong Congyun had a stern face and looked unhappy.
Ma Rongjuan knew that her son liked her.
Naturally, he didn't want to see Xu Yiyi being bullied.
Even her mother would not allow him to be bullied.
"I understand. I won't go there anymore."
Ma Rongjuan curled her lips. If her husband had said this, she would have continued arguing.
But it’s different for the son. There is no need to hurt the relationship between mother and son over such a small matter.
"If you don't want to go, then don't go. If you want to eat it next time, just ask your son to buy it for you."
Zhong Congyun put his arm around Ma Rongjuan's shoulders and said with a smile.
"Don't come on, if you want to see someone, just say it."
Ma Rongjuan pretended to be angry and said this, gently hitting Zhong Congyun on the shoulder.
Zhong Congyun smiled and said nothing.
Ma Rongjuan did not continue the topic, although she did not like Xu Yiyi very much.
But her son liked it so much that she, as a mother, couldn't stop him.
Another thing is that Xu Yiyi now runs a restaurant. If she can marry into the Zhong family, her family won't have to live as poorly as before.
It's the best of both worlds.
……
In the restaurant, Xu Yiyi just picked up Wu Yuan who had just woken up.
Suddenly my brows furrowed and my nose started to itch.
Then, "Ah—choo!"
Wu Yuan nestled in her arms and stared blankly.
"Sister, have you caught a cold?"
Er'er and A Yue were squatting on the ground washing dishes, while Snowball was meowing beside them.
"Of course she is. Isn't your elder sister going to the sea? Even though the weather is getting warmer now, it's not good for your health to stay in the water all the time."
Lao Lu nodded and agreed.
Er Er immediately became worried after hearing this.
"Sister, why don't you go and see Mr. Wu? While he's still drinking in the lobby."
After saying that, Er'er washed her hands and was about to pull Xu Yiyi into the lobby.
"I'm fine. I don't have a cold. My nose just itches."
Xu Yiyi waved his hand, thinking it was unnecessary.
"Big sister..."
When Er'er heard her say this, her eyes immediately became watery, as if she was about to cry.
……
"Okay, okay...I'll go right away."
Xu Yiyi had no choice but to carry Wu Yuan into the lobby.
"Lao Lu, go wash the dishes, wash them clean, or you won't have dinner tonight."
Lao Lu looked left and right. "Isn't I a security guard at the restaurant? How did I become a dishwasher? Do I have to do everything?"
Lao Lu spoke in a hoarse voice.
The next moment, he jumped down from the tree.
The only one left in the backyard was Ah Yue, who was playing in the water.
Looking at the three large basins of bowls, chopsticks and plates, Lao Lu smiled bitterly.
Obediently squat on the chair and wash the dishes.
He originally wanted to just do it perfunctorily, but he was afraid that Xu Yiyi would really not give him food.
I sighed and had to get serious.
I thought that I might really be a handyman in the future.
Here, Xu Yiyi was pulled by Er Er to the front of Mr. Wu.
"what?"
Mr. Wu had finished all the dishes on the table, but he was reluctant to leave. He used chopsticks to pick up the fried beans that Xu Yiyi had made bit by bit to go with the wine.
It took him a while to come back to his senses when he saw Xu Yiyi and Er'er standing in front of him.
"Mr. Wu, could you please take my elder sister's pulse? She just sneezed."
Er'er spoke nervously as Sanchuan and Sihai came over.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Sihai hugged Xu Yiyi's slender waist and started wailing instantly.
"I'm fine! I'm really fine."
Xu Yiyi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Old Wu stretched out his hand and motioned her to put her hand on it.
He just frowned, and the children around him stopped breathing.
The next moment, Mr. Wu's hand moved away.
"It's too early to cry. Your elder sister's pulse is as strong as an ox. She is in good health."
Er'er was stunned when he heard this.
"My eldest sister goes into the sea all the time. Doesn't staying in the sea water have any effects on her health?"
When Mr. Wu heard this, he thought Er'er was questioning him, so he pulled Xu Yiyi over to take his pulse again.
He concentrated and held his breath for a while before moving his hand away again.
"It's really nothing, she's in good health."
Xu Yiyi was also curious when she heard this. "It stands to reason that my body should be affected by my frequent water activities."
She had previously wondered if this would affect her menstruation.
"That's normal, but I didn't notice it the twice I looked at you. You're in really good health."
Old Wu took a sip of wine and spoke slowly.
Xu Yiyi suddenly thought, could it be that because she accidentally swallowed the eyeball of the yellow croaker, she was not only able to breathe, but also no longer felt unwell due to being in the water all year round?
She thought about it, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case.
I immediately felt a little sorry.
Two eyeballs, one missing.
……
We received two waves of guests at noon and in the evening, and the sky gradually darkened.
Xu Yiyiwu and his siblings, along with their great-uncle's family, Uncle Li and Aunt Li's family, and some uncles and aunts who came to help with the renovation of the restaurant sat down in the lobby.
While the children were serving the dishes, Xu Yiyi paid out the wages.
The uncle wanted to stop him, but saw that Xu Yiyi had already taken out the money chain.
It’s not easy to speak either.
There is food and money to be taken.
Suddenly, the lobby was bustling with activity.
When Xu Yiyi went to the backyard to pick up Wu Yuan, he happened to meet Li Xiuying coming out of the toilet.
"Are you proud?"
Li Xiuying watched Xu Yiyi ignore her and walked straight past.
Couldn't help but speak.
