Siheyuan: How many worlds does the system integrate?
Chapter 18: Tea is boring, let's have some wine
Before going to bed at night, Li Xuewu felt like he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it. He thought it was something unimportant and didn't take it seriously.
Li Xuewu, who was washing up in the morning, was stimulated by the cold water and suddenly remembered something. He screamed, "Fuck!"
This sound startled Xu Damao who was washing up nearby. He almost dropped the toothbrush holder in his hand on the ground. "Fuck, Li Xuewu, are you having a seizure? You're so jumpy."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to do something yesterday!"
"What is that? Why is there such a big reaction? Did he stand me up?"
Li Xuewu looked at Xu Damao in surprise. How could this guy guess so accurately?
"Really? Let me guess again, I stood up a sharp fruit!" Xu Damao stared at Li Xuewu, and after seeing his expression, he said, "Come on, man, you're in trouble this time, hurry up and think about how to make up for it."
Li Xuewu walked back into the house with an expression that was more uncomfortable than if he had eaten a fly: "Why didn't the system remind me of such an important matter?"
"According to the host's previous request, the system has turned off all message reminders."
"Okay!" Indeed, he turned it off because he was annoyed by the prompt tone, and ended up delaying his important work. If this gave Chen Xueru a bad impression, how could he complete the audience's bounty mission!
There was really no time to think about it now, as it was time to go to work. I put on my clothes, went to the house next door to grab a steamed bun, and went out with Li Xuewen.
That day at the factory, Li Xuewu had been constantly thinking about how to make up for standing someone up. Sometimes he wondered if the woman hadn't evened up the meeting, so she had stood him up, and that would make it even. But then he thought, if she hadn't evened up the meeting, then what he had said last time wouldn't have had any effect at all.
Anyway, it's very confusing.
Because he was thinking about something, he made several mistakes when handing tools to the master. After being scolded, Li Xuewu quickly calmed down and started to work attentively. He finally waited until the end of get off work time. He said goodbye to the master and hurried to Li Xuewen, asking him to go home and tell his mother that he was going out to dinner with friends in the evening and he didn't need to save any for him.
Then head straight to the tavern.
On the way, while walking, Li Xuewu looked through the things that can be bought in the system. To coax a woman, there are nothing more than those things, jewelry, clothes, snacks and the like. It would be inappropriate to give jewelry to her if she is not that familiar with her. In her eyes, he is just a poor boy. If he really gives her jewelry, she might suspect that he stole it. Clothes are even worse. Chen Xueru's store does this. Fortunately, he has a fashion design album obtained from a bounty, which should be enough to give her a surprise.
So I selected a bag of chocolate, a pack of beef jerky, and a can of coffee from the system. These things are available on the market, but they are relatively expensive. Giving them to Chen Xueru would make her feel that I was thoughtful.
He simply asked the system to put the things into his shoulder bag and this time he strode towards the tavern in big strides.
When I entered the tavern, there were already a few tables of guests inside, so I found a seat at random.
"Sister Huizhen, give me two taels of wine, two plates of side dishes, and a bowl of noodles!"
"Okay, why did you come here today, Xuewu? Did you just get off work?"
"I came here right after work. By the way, did Sister Chen come here yesterday?"
"She came. She sat here until my shop closed and then left angrily! Why was she waiting for you?" Xu Huizhen asked with some confusion.
Li Xuewu scratched his head embarrassedly: "It seems, it seems, she should be waiting for me! I promised her to send her something yesterday, but I forgot about it in my busy schedule!"
"Then you're on your own. No one has dared to stand Miss Chen up yet. No wonder she was so angry when she left yesterday!"
"Will she come today? If she does, sister, please help me put in a good word for her!" Li Xuewu pleaded.
"Okay, if you come, I'll help you!"
A well-dressed, chubby man in his sixties sitting next to me said, "Madam, are you a new customer? It seems like you are quite familiar with him?"
"His name is Li Xuewu, and he lives in Nanluoguxiang. Do you remember that Cai Quanwu found his eldest brother's nephew and niece a few days ago?" Seeing the old man nodded, Xu Huizhen continued, "It was him who told me that. He came to my place to drink that day and saw that Cai Quanwu looked very similar to someone in their courtyard, so he asked me a question. Guess what, it turned out to be true. He can be regarded as our family's benefactor!"
"Oh, that's it. Even though it's not far away, if no one pays attention, you may never find this relative in your life!"
"Of course not. Come and learn martial arts. Let me introduce you. This is Master Niu, a regular customer of my sister's shop!"
Li Xuewu also stood up and bowed: "Hello, Master Niu!"
"Hello, if you are the boss lady's benefactor, you must come here often. Although this place is not big, the wine is pure and not diluted with water, and the side dishes made by the boss lady are also excellent!"
Li Xuewu also replied: "Of course, I came here because of its reputation, and it really lives up to its reputation."
Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "Master Niu, Xuewu, you are all too kind. We all support you!"
"Where is the young man employed?"
"Hey, it doesn't matter if it's a high or low position. Being an apprentice in a steel mill means you have to do something. You can't just sit at home and do nothing."
"That's the truth."
As they drank and chatted, Li Xuewu gradually became familiar with the people in the room. This Mr. Niu was a genuine old Beijinger, a Manchu, who still retained some of his habits, which could be seen from his language and actions.
There is also a man named Pian Ye who looks a bit like the third uncle in the courtyard. He is a storyteller and usually tells stories to people in various teahouses to make a living. When he has nothing to do, he will come to this tavern to have a drink and listen to the news.
When they were chatting happily, they saw a beautiful figure walking into the tavern with a twist of her waist. Li Xuewu's eyes lit up. It must be Chen Xueru. He was about to stand up and greet her.
But he saw Chen Xueru stopped, obviously seeing Li Xuewu, and then turned around and walked away, her high heels clacking. Li Xuewu didn't want to eat anymore, and hurried out to chase her: "Sister Huizhen, I'll pay for you next time!"
He trotted a few steps to catch up with Chen Xueru: "Sister Chen is angry!"
"Hey, who is this? You're such a busy guy, how come I don't know him?" Chen Xueru's face turned serious.
"Hehehe, it's my fault. I was delayed in my journey to become a disciple yesterday. I apologize to my sister!" Li Xuewu quickly bowed to the ground.
Hearing that Li Xuewu had a legitimate reason, Chen Xueru calmed down a little: "Just an apology like that?"
"How can that be? I brought you a lot of good things. How about we go back to the tavern and sit for a while?"
"No, let's go back to my shop. Everyone in the pub saw me coming out. It will be troublesome if I go back!" Chen Xueru shook her head.
"As you say! Let's go!"
The two men returned to the silk shop. The clerks had all gone off work. They closed the shop door and went to the second floor. In addition to the finance office, there was also a manager's office. They opened the door of the manager's office and walked in. There was about 40 to 50 square meters inside. Li Xuewu was jealous. It was much bigger than my two rooms.
The boss's desk was placed against the wall in the manager's office, with a sofa in the middle. Li Xuewu was asked to sit first, and Chen Xueru walked to the cabinet nearby: "Would you like some wine or tea?"
"Tea is boring, let's have some wine!"
