Miss White Rose

On Xiaohan's day, there was a heavy rain, the sky was cloudy, thunder and lightning, and the air-conditioning entered the room through the crack of the door, just like Miss Tang's mood now.

"This developer's brain has been caught by the door! What the hell did he do! With the fine decoration I bought with money, just to smash it and reinstall it?!"

Xiao Tang squatted in front of a pot of mimosa with his head in his arms, with a look of doubt on his life.

Last year, her parents put together a down payment of 40 yuan for her and bought a [-]-square-meter building. When they went to collect the house yesterday, they were shocked to find that the tiles were hollow, the floor and window sills were uneven, the bathroom was prone to water accumulation, and the air-conditioning hole There is no socket next to it...

It just makes people collapse in place.

Lin Shengmiao, who was also saving money to buy a house, felt very empathetic to her experience, and comforted her softly while hugging Bubbles who came around to eat.

Xu Xingyan picked out the withered flower branches and threw them into the trash bag, while persuading:

"The matter has come to this point, it's useless for you to cry, first negotiate with the decoration company, if the other party refuses, then go to the Consumer Council for mediation, um... But I suggest you prepare a series of appraisal documents first, in this case, The opponents must be old fritters."

In a few words, Ms. Xu revealed Miss Xiao Tang's road to defending her rights in the next few months.

"Ahhh..." Xiao Tang said with a mournful face, "Why am I so unlucky."

"Hey," Xu Xingyan shook her head, in the heavy rain outside, she saw a familiar figure, she hurriedly opened the door and waved, "Aunt Liu!"

The sanitation aunt with gray hair and a thin figure pushed the door and walked in, took off the dripping rain gear and left it at the door, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, long time no see."

"It's been a long time since I saw you, I thought you weren't working here anymore," Xu Xingyan hurriedly brought a clean towel, and poured a cup of hot water for her to cover her hands.

Aunt Liu was a little embarrassed, holding the paper cup in both hands, and said in substandard Mandarin: "A few days ago, my grandson was sick, so I asked for leave to take care of him at home, and I found someone else to take care of him. No... he died." After a few days of drinking water, the disease recovered, and I came back."

She looked at Xu Xingyan cowardly, her back bent, and she seemed to hesitate to speak.

Before she could speak, Xu Xingyan smiled and said, "I've saved the cardboard boxes for you these days, and it's not easy to get them today, so if the rain stops tomorrow, you can ride the tricycle over and drag them away together. "

Aunt Liu smiled and nodded her thanks.

"It's easy, it's not worth any thanks." Xu Xingyan looked at the clock hanging behind the counter again, and said, "Hey, you haven't eaten at this point, it's raining so hard outside, it must be inconvenient to get lunch, how about Stay and have a bowl of dumplings with us..."

"No, no, I'm leaving now. The tricycle is still parked under the corridor over there," Aunt Liu waved her hands quickly, unwilling to stay for a meal anyway.

Several people tried to persuade her to no avail, so she just let it go, watching Aunt Liu drink the hot water, put on her raincoat again, and trot through the rain curtain, still holding the garbage bag that Xu Xingyan had left at the door.

It was only later that Lin Shengmiao found out that Aunt Liu's son jumped off the building because of investment failure, leaving Aunt Liu with a seven-year-old grandson and a pile of debts. Tan, while paying off debts, while taking care of his grandson, the old man just survived slowly.

After Xu Xingyan, Fan Ying and the others found out, they more or less helped her, and the cardboard boxes that usually contained flowers and books were also kept for her to sell for money.

"I sort of understand why you've been running this flower shop," Lin Shengmiao said as she walked to her side with a smile in her arms, hugging the petite kitten.

Xu Xingyan turned her head and smiled at her, pinching Bubble's little pad.

The owner of this flower shop fished for three days and posted the net for two days, but he didn’t see much money. But here, Ms. Xu, who doesn’t eat fireworks, gradually understands that all beings are suffering, and also understands the weight of life. .

The cold wind outside is bleak, but the inside of the flower shop is warm and fragrant. A pot of white and fat dumplings is boiling in the induction cooker, and the heat is steaming, driving away all the haze.

"Is it delicious?" Xu Xingyan asked.

Lin Shengmiao took a bite and nodded, "It's not bad, it doesn't look like quick-frozen."

Xu Xingyan lowered her head and rolled the vinegar in the bowl twice with chopsticks, then said casually, "Well, my mother made it."

A certain choked cough sounded, and the two of them looked at the blushing Miss Tang together:? ? ?

Xiao Tang immediately waved his hands and said, "Go on, don't worry about me, I'm just an unimportant NPC!"

Xu Xingyan smiled, and said, "My mother asked me to ask you, is it convenient to have a meal together during the Chinese New Year?"

Now there were two coughs.

Lin Shengmiao took a big mouthful of dumpling soup before slowing down, and said firmly, "I'm definitely free!" If the boss dares not to take a holiday, he will be fired!

Miss Xu smiled and chewed a piece of pickled cucumber.

As for why you have to wait until the New Year, it's actually very simple, it's just that Ms. Fang Yi is still a little awkward and needs some time to adjust.

……

The lounge on the second floor of the flower shop.

Ever since they fell in love, oh no... it's since their reunion with Lin Shengmiao.

Ms. Xu, who always likes comfortable, natural cotton clothes, suddenly pays more attention to color matching. In those years, the days of wearing seven MUJI white shirts a week are gone forever.

Because of the high temperature of the air conditioner in the room, she wore a white square-neck knitted top on her upper body, and a blue-dyed turquoise gradient skirt on her lower body, embroidered with a few plum flowers, giving her a gentle and elegant ladylike feeling.

After answering a work call and walking in, Lin Shengmiao lay down on the bed naturally, shoulder to shoulder with Xu Xingyan who was leaning on the bed and swiping her phone, preparing for a lunch break.

"Have Bubbles been sent back to the next door?"

"Yeah," Lin Shengmiao touched her cool calf under the quilt, pressed her tightly to keep her warm, and smiled lazily, "Sister Ying came to pick her up in person."

"You're going back next week to sell your vacation." Xu Xingyan pressed half of her body on her body, poking her face with her fingers, half coquettish and half complaining: "We're still in love, and we're going to start moving away."

Lin Shengmiao held her face, and explained clearly: "In a few years, I will find an opportunity to come to Nancheng. I haven't been back to China for a long time now, and I have to build a lot of contacts from scratch. It's easier to get a job in the company. Receiving some high-quality orders, just like getting qualifications from other units, there is always a process..."

At the age of 28, no matter what industry you are in, it is a stage of serious study and active progress.

"I understand..." Xu Xingyan sighed and smiled, even if she was reluctant to give up, seeing her girlfriend patiently talking about the future now, there was nothing left but sweetness in her heart.

"Brother-in-law Leo's 32nd birthday will be the day after tomorrow. Sister Si Ning said that she wants to have a meal with some friends to celebrate. It's not good to go to a crowded place. The place is at her home. It's the same people as last time. She You specifically told me to take you there."

Lu Sining and the others knew Xu Xingyan very well. Ms. Xu was usually gentle and unyielding. Even if she was offended by something, she would always laugh it off. She had a top-notch temper.

But at the same time, she was raised as a jewel in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and she has an extremely stubborn personality. The person she likes must also be liked by her relatives and friends, and she must be treated with respect.

"Okay, then... what kind of gift would be better to buy?" Lin Shengmiao asked in surprise.

Xu Xingyan kissed her clear eyes, and said with a low smile, "I've already prepared those, you just need to be responsible for appearing on the stage, and then have fun."

Lin Shengmiao was about to say something when she heard Xiao Tang's voice greeting guests from downstairs.

Xu Xingyan raised her eyebrows, looked at the daunting pouring rain outside the window, and wondered who was so overwhelmed that she went out to buy flowers in this weather.

Driven by curiosity, she put on a down jacket that reached to her ankles and went downstairs.

It was a tall man in a black coat. His facial features were not handsome, but he was very upright, with an awe-inspiring uprightness and a very polite manner.

Xiao Tang said: "Boss, this guest wants to tie a bouquet of 33 red roses." Then he turned to the man and asked, "Is it for a girlfriend? A confession or a marriage proposal?"

The man looked softly and said shyly, "Proposal, today is her 33rd birthday."

"Then congratulations in advance." Xu Xingyan bent her eyes and told Xiao Tang, "Go to the cabinet on the left and get a roll of bright yellow ribbon."

Lin Shengmiao stood at the stairs with her arms folded, looking tenderly at Xu Xingyan who was wrapping the bouquet deftly. 33 red roses may not sound like many, but when held in her arms, it is also a large piece of bright red, very eye-catching.

"Do you need to write a card?" Xu Xingyan asked, taking out a lot of various cards and spreading them on the table.

The man thanked him, picked out a pale pink card, and started writing at his desk.Xu Xingyan glanced casually and saw the name on it: Han Xiaohan.

She froze for a moment, and immediately remembered that today was Xiao Han in the lunar calendar, so she couldn't help lowering her head and pursing her lips into a smile.

The greatest joy of a flower shop is that you can always meet some very interesting people, and you can vaguely see the sincere and beautiful feelings between them without chatting too much.

Everyone in the world loves a lover, and good feelings can always make people feel happy.

After sending the man away, he watched him hold the bouquet of roses in his arms, took off his coat to cover it, and held an umbrella by himself, his figure gradually disappeared in the storm.

Xu Xingyan sincerely wished him a successful marriage proposal in her heart, that the lovers would finally get married and live a happy life.

Then, she held a rose, walked towards her lover, put the flower in her coat pocket, and said softly, "Let's go back to take a nap."

On rainy days, it is most suitable to spend time slowly while hiding in the warm blanket with the one you love.

Lin Shengmiao chuckled, and held her cool hand amidst the fragrance of roses.
