I got the thief boss

For the next few days, the days passed smoothly.

That night, the two ate as usual, and Jing Luo couldn't do anything after the meal, so Xie Shu also consciously packed up the dishes and prepared to go to the kitchen.

"Quite self-conscious." Jing Luo smiled, walked to the sofa and took an apple.

Xie Shuyi originally wanted to refuse, but he never knew how to refuse others. He seemed to be born this way. After receiving favors from others, he would always return them in his own way. He didn't like to owe others anything. kind of nature.

So he hesitated several times and didn't have the nerve to speak, and then he simply comforted himself: Forget it, forget it, just wash the dishes, and exercise after dinner.

Xie Shu also smiled, but did not refute, and walked into the kitchen with the bowl in hand.

"Hey." Jing Luo called him to stop.

Xie Shu also paused, then turned around, "What's wrong?"

Jing Luo was at a loss for words for a while, "Forget it, let's talk after you finish washing." After speaking, he picked up the fruit knife and began to peel the apples.

This made Xie Shu also puzzled.

After washing the dishes, I cleaned up the table by the way.

Xie Shu also washed his hands, shook his hands and sat down by the sofa.

"Do you want to eat?" Jing Luo handed him an apple.

Xie Shu was also taken aback, took the peeled apple, and thanked him with a smile.

"I thought about it..." In the middle of speaking, Boss Jing suddenly changed the subject, "Tsk... cut off again!"

Xie Shu also looked at several apples neatly placed in front of him, which seemed to be used for peeling and practice. Of course, this one in his hand was also one of them.

Xie Shu also smiled, "What do you think?"

"Oh..." Jing Luo took the words, picked up an apple and peeled it again, "I think about it and I won't charge you for food, how about it?"

"Why?" He kept staring at the apple in Jing Luo's hand, and it was about to be cut off again, Xie Shuyi hesitated again and again and said, "You can't peel the apple like this, you have to come from one side."

"You understand quite well." Jing Luo raised his eyelids and looked at him.

Sure enough, it broke again on the last lap. Boss Jing sighed softly, dropped the knife, picked up an apple, took a bite, and nestled in the sofa.

He continued what he said just now, "It's inhumane to make you wash the dishes and make you pay again, let alone..."

He glanced at Xie Shuyi, "What if you give me a bad review because of this? My store is full of five-star reviews."

Xie Shu also finished eating the apple in his hand, took out a piece of paper, wrapped the core of the apple, and put it aside.

"Bad reviews are not enough. Although it is said so, the money still has to be given."

Okay, pretty stubborn.

"Well then, you don't need to give me the money, you can pay for the vegetables tomorrow." After Jing Luo finished speaking, she reached out and took another apple.

"another one?"

Xie Shu also shook his head, "Shopping for vegetables?"

"Yeah, I'm going to buy vegetables tomorrow. I see that you have been here for a few days and you haven't gone out for a walk. I'll take you out tomorrow to get some fresh air."

"Okay." Xie Shu also readily agreed, he was really going to be overwhelmed, every day besides upstairs and downstairs, the furthest thing he could see was the few bare trees outside the window.

The next day, Xie Shu also woke up early, and he picked out the thickest coat to put on.When he went downstairs, Jing Luo was playing the real role of a excrement officer, cleaning up the cat litter and preparing cat food for Laifu.

After finishing all this work, he suddenly turned around and found a person standing beside the stairs, the living room was not turned on, the lights were dark, and everything could only be seen roughly.Jing Luo was startled, and subconsciously blurted out a swear word: "Damn, I was scared to death, brother, did you float down, and you walked without making any sound?"

Xie Shu also hurriedly turned on the light and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't say hello when I saw you were feeding the cat."

Jing Luo waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just that there are so many people in the family that I'm not used to."

He noticed Xie Shuyi's attire today, a black overcoat with a beige scarf, dressed like a literati, no wonder he was highly educated.

He was taken aback for a moment and then said, "Are you going out wearing this?"

Xie Shu also looked down at his outfit, and asked, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Jing Luo said in a mocking tone, "No problem, but young man, you don't know anything about the outdoor temperature in the north."

Xie Shu also said with some embarrassment: "But this is already the thickest coat I can find."

"It's your first time in the north? You don't even know you want to buy a down jacket?"

"Well, it's the first time I'm here, and the time is too tight, so I didn't have time to buy it."

Jing Luo sighed helplessly, turned around and went back to his room. When he came out, he handed him a down jacket in his hand: "Put on mine first." After finishing speaking, he took a look at Xie Shuyi, and said, "Small or small?" Should be about the same.”

Xie Shu also put on his down jacket and thanked him with a smile.

Jing Luo took a look at him, "It's quite suitable, let's go." After speaking, he turned around and left.

Xie Shu also immediately raised his heels.

This small town is not too big, so the vegetable market is not far away, just walk.

The city where Xie Shuyi lives is always foggy in winter, but the sky here is very bright.After walking out the door, Xie Shuyi realized how cold the winter in the north is. He wrapped his down jacket tightly around his body and strode behind Jing Luo.Xie Shu also looked around and sighed in his heart: The town has a strong sense of the New Year. Although there is still a month to celebrate the New Year, red lanterns have already been hung on the trees on both sides of the road.

People in this small town seem to get up very early, because before dawn, there are many people in the vegetable market.

Although this vegetable market is not big, it has everything you need, including vegetables, fruits, and fresh food.

Xie Shuyi has almost never been to the vegetable market, and the few times he has occasionally been there are always with Lin Mi and his wife.

It was the first time for the two of them to visit the vegetable market alone.

Xie Shu also looked at the huge crowd, feeling warm in his heart.Obviously it is the simplest grocery shopping, but it can arouse his desire for reunion.

Xie Shu also came back to his senses, only to find that Jing Luo had arrived in front of the vegetable stall, and the vegetable seller greeted him warmly: "Young man, what do you want to buy? Look, these tomatoes and cucumbers are freshly picked in the greenhouse early in the morning. They are fresh. gone."

"What to eat?" Jing Luo asked Xie Shu, who was looking around behind him.

"It's fine, these tomatoes are not bad."

"Boss, here are some tomatoes, two servings, and some cucumbers, baby cabbage, spinach, and rapeseed."

"Two servings?" the boss asked while filling the bag with vegetables.

"Yes, the other one is just a little less." Jing Luo instructed.

"okay."

After weighing, the boss handed him the dish, and Jing Luo took it.

Before Boss Jing could speak, Xie Shu also paid the money consciously and thanked him.

Jing Luo glanced at him, and said silently in his heart: "That's right, you have a good eye"

After leaving the vegetable stall, they went to the meat section to buy some ribs and pork.

Before leaving, Jing Luo went back to the vegetable stall and bought two Chinese cabbages as if thinking of something.

After buying these, the two were ready to head back home.Xie Shu also saw that Jing Luo was carrying a big bag and a small bag, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Let me get some for you."

"You know how to get it for me, I just praised you for your good eyesight."

"When?"

"Just... Just now, you were busy paying, so you didn't hear me."

"Oh, no wonder, people are too noisy, maybe I didn't hear it, give it to me."

Embarrassed for a while, Jing Luo hurriedly handed him several plastic bags in her hand.

Xie Shu also looked at the two bags of identical vegetables in his hand, and asked, "Why did you buy two?"

Jing Luo walked in front, turned her head when she heard the words, and said jokingly: "Go and give warmth to the lonely old man."

Xie Shu also believed it, and said with a smile: "Is Boss Jing still keen on charity?"

"Always on the road." Boss Jing replied without humility.

It has been almost a week since I came here, and Xie Shuyi has several versions of his views on Boss Jing. He has a poisonous tongue, a bad temper, a bit childish, and is very kind...

After walking for a while, Jing Luo stopped in front of a house.This is a house that looks old. The paint on the big red iron door has faded, and it looks a little uncomfortable, like impurities suddenly appearing in a big solid-color dyeing vat.

The door was closed tightly, Jing Luo came to the door and knocked, but after waiting for a while for a response, he took out the key, opened the door and stepped in.

The yard is very clean, and there is a small open space, which seems to be used for growing vegetables, because there are still a few withered vegetable leaves in the open space.

Xie Shu also followed Jing Luo into the room. The furniture in the room also looked quite old, and there was a crack on the red wooden furniture.

It may be due to the layout, the room is a little empty, and it seems surprisingly quiet.

Xie Shu also looked around, and asked in a lower than normal voice: "Is there no one?"

Jing Luo looked at him and replied, "Nobody." After speaking, he added, "I'm not at home, let's go out and play."

Xie Shu also didn't know why, so Jing Luo walked to the kitchen familiarly, put the vegetables in the vegetable basket on the floor, and opened the refrigerator to put the meat in.

After finishing these, he turned around and greeted Xie Shuyi, "Let's go."

Xie Shuyi didn't react for a moment: "I'm leaving now? Don't you need to say anything?"

Jing Luo replied simply: "No, she knows."

Xie Shu also nodded subconsciously, followed Jing Luo out of the door.

As soon as he walked out of the door, a loud voice sounded: "Oh, I clearly remembered to lock the door, why is the door still open? Could it be a thief?" An old man in a red sweater with flowers rushed in.He also held a branch in his hand.

After seeing the people in the yard clearly, the old man let out a long sigh of relief and scolded with a smile: "You scared me to death, you child, I thought it was a thief."

"It's not that I haven't entered."

The old man was blocked by Jing Luo's words and didn't know what to say. After a while, he said with a guilty conscience: "Then...then forgot to lock the door..."

The old man looked at Jing Luo who was following behind him, pointed to Xie Shuyi, and asked Jing Luo curiously, "Who is this handsome guy?"

Jing Luo glanced behind her, and replied, "Those who come from other places to play, stay at home."

Xie Shu also poked his head out and took two steps forward, and said obediently, "Grandma is good."

"Hey... good." The old man took another step forward, looked carefully for a while and said with a smile: "Young man is really good-looking and delicate, how old are you this year?"

Xie Shu also smiled shyly and replied, "I'll be 28 during Chinese New Year."

The old man was startled, and Jing Luo was also startled. He looked at him incredulously, and said in his heart: This book writer is actually 28?It looks like a college student, but after a long time it is two years older than me.

Xie Shu was also a little embarrassed by the two staring at him, he cleared his cough and coughed back Jing Luo who was distracted.

"28? Not like, not like, looks like 18."

Xie Shu also smiled, "Long looks smaller."

The old man looked at him with loving eyes, and asked kindly after a while: "Where is the home? Why do you think of playing during the Chinese New Year? What work do you do?"

Old people in the world have a common problem. When they see young people, they have to check their household registration. The final question must be whether they have a girlfriend. If not, I will introduce one to you.

Just as Xie Shuyi was about to answer, he was interrupted by Jing Luo's voice. He said helplessly, "Check your household registration. He just came to play and left after a while."

"Hey, didn't I just watch the young man get close?"

After chatting so much, I finally remembered the purpose of this visit, Jing Luo said: "I went to the vegetable market today to buy some more vegetables, and I'll bring them here for you if I can't finish them."

When the old man heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "No, I have something to eat here. Besides, how much food can I eat as an old lady, take it back quickly and you two can eat it. If I can't eat it here, it will be ruined."

"Eat it hard and it won't break."

The old man smiled and scolded: "You child, don't buy me something next time, I can't finish it"

Jing Luo agreed on the surface, and then ordered: "I put the things in the refrigerator for you, and we will go back first."

"Okay, let's go back, it's really cold."

Xie Shu also nodded like an old man, said goodbye politely, and followed.

Walking out of the door, I heard the old lady's loud voice again, she shouted to them at the door: "You two come to play often when you have time."

"Understood." Jing Luo replied.

After saying this, the two left.

On the spacious road, the golden sun shines brightly, and the two young people walk side by side into the distance—that is the direction of home.
