Open a milk tea shop in the martial arts world

Gu Xichao made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings near Hongqiao on weekdays, but it was raining today, so he had to close the stall early and go home.

The neighbor is a widow with a daughter, who usually earns a living by washing clothes for others.

When he came back in the afternoon, he met Mrs. Liu who was going out, exchanged some pleasantries, and learned that Yunshang, which was very popular recently on Yujie Street, was recruiting. She wanted to try it, and asked him to help take care of her little daughter before leaving.

At dusk, Mrs. Liu never came back.

Niu Niu cried in anxiety in the room, and kept patting on the door. Gu Xichao was also a little worried, fearing that Mrs. Liu would encounter some trouble, so she came over to take a look.

Tan Xiao kept chattering in his heart, and said calmly, "I do have Mrs. Liu here, I don't know if it's the one you're looking for. Why don't you sit down first, and I'll call her out."

The man nodded with a smile, and Tan Xiao went to the kitchen to call Mrs. Liu, who was very surprised when she saw the person coming.

"Mr. Gu, why are you here? Is something wrong with Niuniu?"

Gu Xi said in a warm voice, "It's nothing, don't worry, auntie. It's because you haven't come home, and Niuniu is worried about you, so she asked me to come and have a look."

Lady Liu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I'll be done soon, Mr. Gu, why don't you sit here and wait for me, we have a companion on the way."

After hearing the whole story, Tan Xiao felt embarrassed for Mrs. Liu, but she couldn't open her mouth to tell her to go back first. The system is the system, and she couldn't just say that, otherwise everyone would have embarrassing things in the future and asked for leave. She How to manage.

Thinking of this, she said, "In this case, young master, you can just sit here and wait for her. The store is at nine o'clock every day, oh no, it closes at the end of Shushi, and it's almost time."

Gu Xichao smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Miss."

Tan Xiao made a cup of hot milk tea, and went to the kitchen to cut a cake and bring it over.

Gu Xichao asked suspiciously, "Girl, I haven't ordered anything..."

Tan Xiao smiled at him and said, "Please, you don't need to pay."

Being good-looking means being privileged and extraordinary to her.

Gu Xichao was slightly taken aback, then got up and cupped his hands to express his gratitude, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss. I, Gu Xichao, dare to ask you her name. If there is something abrupt, I hope you will forgive me."

Tan Xiao smiled, "It would be rude to ask for a name. My name is Tan Xiao, and I have a happy smile. Sitting here is boring, why don't you eat something."

Gu Xichao also laughed, "Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."

"Then feel free, I'm still busy there, so I won't tell you more."

"It's okay, miss Tan, go and do it yourself, don't worry about me."

Back at the bar, Tan Xiao continued to calculate the accounts, while peeking from time to time to take care of Xi Chao's seductive eyes.

I don't know what he does, he doesn't look like a Jiang Hu person, but rather like a scholar in green clothes with no ambitions, or a teacher from some academy, and his speech is also polite.

After traveling through these days, Tan Xiao summed up a rule.

Basically, the good-looking and outstanding men she met were all the protagonists of a certain work, and she didn't know which novel Gu Xichao was related to.

She began to regret that she never watched domestic dramas, never browsed the forums, and rarely played Weibo, otherwise she might have become the boss by relying on the prophet of the plot.

Tan Xiao was thinking wildly in his mind, and it was time to get off work in no time.

The hourglass for timekeeping dripped the last grain of sand, and several people put down their work one after another. After Tan Xiao explained a few words, they were ready to pack up and go home.

There were still a lot of cakes and cookies left in the store, and those that were not sold that day could not be kept until the next day. Tan Xiao could only treat them as employee benefits, and asked a few people to take them home.

It was raining heavily at night, there were no stalls in the night market today, and there were no lights on the road. Tan Xiao looked at the oil-paper umbrella in Gu Xichao's hand that seemed to fall apart in the wind, and was very worried about whether they would be able to get out of Erlidi.

Forget it, she is a good person to the end, she is still a good boss who cares about employees.

She asked Lu Zhao, who looked the strongest, to call two carriages, paid their fare, and asked the driver to take them home safely.

Gu Xichao seemed a little unaccustomed to accepting other people's kindness, he hurriedly said, "Miss Tan, don't be like this, I am very grateful for the interruption tonight, there is no need to..."

Tan Xiao interrupted him, and said with a slight smile, "Mr. Gu, you don't have to be so polite. What if they fall ill in the rain tonight, and no one will work for me tomorrow?"

Gu Xichao chuckled twice, and he raised the corners of his lips and said softly, "So, I'm still in the honor of Mrs. Liu."

The bright light above his head shone on his face, and the faint smile washed away the melancholy in his eyes. He was really an overly good-looking man. When he looked at him so seriously, it was easy to have the illusion of being loved by him.

Tan Xiao raised his eyebrows and nodded seriously, "Yes, you have to thank her well."

Several people got into the carriage separately, Gu Xichao saw the girl standing at the door looking towards them through the flying curtain, the rain curtain all over the sky made the smile on her face faint and unreal.

When the carriage started to drive, he saw the girl waving her arms and seemed to be shouting something, but unfortunately the voice was drowned by the heavy rain, so he didn't have time to hear it clearly.

Gu Xichao turned his eyes away, and looked at the distant and unknown night with leisurely eyes, his face was as calm as a mirror, except for a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

The next day, Tan Xiao interviewed a few more people, but in the end he only settled on the one he liked.

The new employee is also a woman, surnamed Wang, who looks older than Mrs. Liu. Her husband has been dead for more than ten years, and she does odd jobs alone to support her son who is studying in the academy.

After taking it all morning, Tan Xiao was quite satisfied with her, not to mention her skills and savvy, but the most important thing was that she was honest, gentle and easy to talk.

Now she only needs to help at the front desk, she is not needed in the back kitchen for the time being, and people are much more free than before.

With more tables and chairs in the store, there are more people who spend their days here enjoying the air-conditioning, and Tan Xiao also heard all kinds of market news from them.

"This is already the third one, tsk tsk, I heard that the death was terrible."

"During this time, my daughter didn't dare to leave the house, and she had to hide a pair of scissors under her pillow when she slept. I don't know when the government will catch her, alas!"

Tan Xiao, who was passing by, heard the whispered conversation of a table of guests, she stopped and asked, "What's the matter, has something important happened these days?"

One person hurriedly said, "Miss Tan, you have to be careful these days. You must lock the doors and windows when you sleep, and don't wander outside by yourself."

The other person at the same table nodded again and again, "That's right, that's right, you are beautiful, maybe that thief has already been eyeing you."

The person next to him bumped him, and he hurriedly changed his words, "Oh, I'm talking nonsense, I deserve to be hit, but I'm not trying to scare you, this thief only picks out pretty girls, no matter what, it's always right to be careful. "

Tan Xiao heard more and more vaguely, she asked, "You mean, someone was killed these days?"

The first person to answer said, "Since the beginning of this month, every five or six days, a little lady has disappeared inexplicably. By the time the body was found, she was already dead. It is said that her hands and feet were cut off and her face was painted. But it’s miserable, three of them have died so far, and this person’s heart is too vicious.”

Tan Xiao frowned, she secretly kept this matter in her heart, thanked the two for their reminders, and went to the bar to get busy.

Although she needs to be more vigilant, she is not very worried.

As long as she doesn't walk out of this store, her personal safety is absolutely safe.Even if she leaves here, as long as she wears a protective novice suit, she will have no problem.

On the one hand, she was worried about the girls in the city, and on the other hand, she also hoped that the government would solve the case quickly so that this matter could pass as soon as possible.

Just thinking about it, I know that there is no fingerprint comparison here, and there is no surveillance video, so finding a person who has committed a crime can only be judged by experience, and the difficulty can be imagined.

She also doesn't know which institution is usually responsible for this kind of criminal case. She still can't tell the difference between Kaifeng Mansion, Six Gates, Dali Temple and the fingertips of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Maybe it's like the Public Security Bureau of the Procuratorate.

She suddenly remembered that Zhan Zhao hadn't come for several days, and wondered if he was busy with this case.

Out of the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of the person coming in at the door, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Zhan Zhao, dressed in vermilion, walked in with steady and strong steps, and everyone in the shop who recognized him greeted him one after another.

He nodded gently in response, walked through the long queue of people, and walked slowly to the bar, and saw a girl in a light green skirt smiling at him.

"Brother Zhan, come here when you are free. I want to come over today. I can let you join the team for the sake of my acquaintances."

Zhan Zhao laughed, he shook his head and said, "No, I just passed by here and came in to take a look. You must have heard about what happened in the past few days. Try not to go out alone, and be careful."

The three girls who were murdered were all beautiful without exception. They thought the first two were just a coincidence. When the third body was found, they knew that the murderer was a targeted killer. girl.

The first time he thought of Tan Xiao, he was single and extremely beautiful, no matter how he looked at it, he was very suitable for the murderer's target, so he came to see her immediately after leaving the government office, and only after seeing her safe and sound with his own eyes. Be a little more open-minded.

"You said this, I just heard about it." Tan Xiao couldn't help but become a little more serious, "I will lock the doors and windows, don't worry, you should be careful when handling cases outside."

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Tan Xiao for the time being, and after a few more instructions, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Brother Zhan, wait."

Tan Xiao took a handbag, ran to the glass cabinet and stuffed a bag full of cakes and cookies into his hand, "Take it, good public servant of the people, don't say no."

The girl looked at him with a smile on her bright and bright eyes, which made Zhan Zhao unable to say anything to refuse.

He thanked him warmly, and left in a hurry.

Looking at Zhan Zhaoyuan's back, Tan Xiao sighed inwardly, wishing secretly that he could bring the murderer to justice as soon as possible.

The author has something to say:

Regarding what I said in the previous chapter, I am not against dating and marriage, but I have never met a normal man who is upright, kind, empathetic, does not swear, does not make vulgar jokes, is hygienic and polite. , I have lived for almost 30 years, so far I have never met this kind of man, and also, I really don’t have time to fall in love. When I have a partner, I feel annoyed when he finds me, and I think he takes up my time.

If there is a good man, of course I still want to talk about sweet love, but unfortunately, men, everyone understands.
