"Sorry, I'm here to deliver the food. The food has been delivered. Please ask the girl to pay so I can go back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival." Ye Jiayao said expressionlessly.
"Li Yao, this is your fault. You live in heaven, don't you also drink with guests?" Xia Chunyu said with a faint smile, picked up the flask and filled a glass of wine.
"Take this drink and pay the bill." Xia Chunyu pushed the drink over.
"How can one cup be enough? Chef Li is a famous chef in Jinling. He still has to drink three cups. Ying'er, take two more cups. Yan'er, go get a gold ingot." Liu Yiyi said softly.
Two maids responded, one took the wine glass and the other took the ingot of gold.
"Chef Li, after drinking these three glasses of wine, this ingot of gold will be yours." Liu Yiyi said with a generous face.
Ye Jiayao was so angry that she wanted to flip the table over. This couple humiliated her in unison. Did they think she was worse than a prostitute or a woman
Xia Chunyu raised his eyebrows slightly, as if waiting for a good show.
Ye Jiayao walked over, picked up the gold ingot, weighed it, and smiled coldly: "This is the first time I have seen the gold ingot. It opened my eyes. After all, he is the number one courtesan in Jinling. There are many men who give money. However, this kind of I don’t care about money, I think it’s dirty.”
Liu Yiyi's expression changed upon hearing this, and her hands hidden in her sleeves trembled.
She forced a smile: "Really? What should I do then? All the money I have here is given by men. Otherwise, would Chef Li treat me to this dinner?"
Ye Jiayao's smile did not change: "The word "please" cannot be used carelessly. I only invite friends. You two are neither relatives nor friends of me, so how can you say "please"
Ye Jiayao picked up the wine glass and looked at Xia Chunyu: "For this meal, I will just... feed the dog."
With that said, Ye Jiayao poured the wine into Xia Chunyu's face and left quickly without looking back.
You stinky man, you are a stinky man who is worse than a dog. Eat and drink. It is my duty to do good deeds and accumulate virtue.
Liu Yiyi exclaimed from behind: "Master Shizi... hurry up, Ying'er, bring me the handkerchief. This person is too unruly and ignorant."
Yes, she just has no rules. If someone steps on your face, she can't lick your shoes. She will only resist and make your body spread out.
Yes, she just doesn't know what's good and what's wrong. She doesn't want men who are hypocritical.
Ye Jiayao kept walking, walking very fast, as if she was running away. Behind her was the gorgeous world illuminated by the lights, and in front of her was the gloomy night. She was walking in the darkness without any light or hope.
How could he do this? Just because she went to the lake with Xiao Jing, and because she didn't agree to break up with Xiao Jing, would he use this method to humiliate her
Why is it always like this? When she wants to hand over her heart, she will be hit head-on. This was the case on the mountain and it is still the case now.
She didn't want to cry, but the tears just couldn't stop.
The silvery moon in the sky is like a disk, and there are thousands of lights in the world, and every family is reunited, but she is alone, alone in this other world.
Ye Jiayao, don't think about it, don't be so pessimistic, isn't it just that you met a scumbag? Shake your head, pat the dust on your body, life will still go on, you will live a good life, no one in this world will die if you leave him.
But I feel so uncomfortable, really uncomfortable. My heart feels like it has been whipped with a thorny whip, one whip after another, and the pain is dripping with blood.
She ran to the river and cried bitterly.
She told herself that she would only cry once and be weak just once.
Xia Chunyu had dried his face and was sitting there drinking. In order to relieve the discomfort caused by Yaoyao's rudeness, Liu Yiyi lightly stretched her sleeves and danced.
The dancing was beautiful, the music was pleasant, and the food and wine were delicious, but he had no intention of enjoying it and it was all boring. When Yaoyao left, the moment she turned around, he clearly saw the tears that were holding back in her eyes.
At that moment, his heart seemed to be stabbed by a sharp knife, and it hurt sharply. He wanted to chase her out, and wanted to tell her that he was just doing this to let her experience the feeling of being betrayed by the one she loved.
But he couldn't move away, couldn't let go of this face.
He also has his pride.
Yes, he admitted that what he did was not cool enough and upright enough. Now that he had decided to let go, he should be free and happy, but he couldn't do it. Ever since he met her, all the calmness, calmness, and uninhibitedness were far away from him. .
He once laughed at those people who were trapped by love and had no spine, but now, he himself has become such a person.
Maybe, only in this way can I make up my mind to give up on her and make her and Xiaojing happy.
Xia Chunyu raised his head and drank a glass of wine, letting the hot liquid spread and burn in his body. He could not help but drink to relieve his worries, which only made him more worried.
Ye Jiayao had cried enough. She looked up at the lanterns on the other side, and then remembered that there was a lantern festival tonight, and Xiao Jing had originally asked her to watch the lantern festival together.
Ye Jiayao wiped away her tears, went to the lantern festival, guessed dozens of lantern riddles at once, and hugged a bunch of prizes, feeling better now.
"Hey... Li Yao."
When Ye Jiayao heard someone calling her, she turned around and saw that it was Zhao Qixuan and the mysterious Third Young Master Su. The two of them finally appeared in public together, which was gratifying.
"Hi, it's you!" Ye Jiayao forced a smile.
"I just heard that someone guessed twenty-eight lantern riddles in one breath. I thought it was some great talent who came to Jinling to take the exam, but it turned out to be you!" Zhao Qixuan saw the prize in Ye Jiayao's arms and said with a smile, himself There were also a dozen lantern riddles in his hand.
Ye Jiayao smiled sheepishly: "Haha, I was just passing by and asked a few lantern riddles."
Zhao Qixuan looked around and asked curiously: "Why are you alone? Where is Xiaojing? Didn't he say he wanted to invite you to watch the lantern festival together?"
"He should be at home, I have to work at night!"
"How about coming with us to watch the moon at Baita Temple? That's a good place to watch the moon." Zhao Qixuan invited him enthusiastically.
Ye Jiayao looked at Mr. Su, who looked calm and elegant, and had no intention of being unhappy or trying to stop him, but she couldn't be a light bulb!
"No, the family is still waiting for me to go back and eat moon cakes! You go and play! It's time for me to go back." Ye Jiayao said goodbye with a smile.
Walking back and passing by the pier, I saw someone setting off lanterns. They wrote their wishes on the lanterns and floated them with the water, asking the river god and the moon god to fulfill their wishes.
Ye Jiayao searched her eyes and saw a little girl selling lanterns not far away. Then walked over.
"Can I exchange these gifts for a lantern?"
The little girl looked at the things in her arms, which were quite impressive, and asked, "What's in there?"
Ye Jiayao said: "I don't know, maybe it's some combs, brushes or something."
The little girl said cheerfully: "That's okay, I just want to buy a pen for my brother. Master, you can choose it yourself!"
Ye Jiayao gave her all the gifts, picked a lotus lantern, wrote "I want to make a lot of money" on it, then ran to the dock and put the lantern into the water.
From now on, her goal is to make money, make a lot of money, and then leave Jinling and travel around the world.
When she returned to the courtyard, Aunt Jiang's family was still waiting for her to eat, and she couldn't help but feel warm. Although this family was arranged by Chunyu, this family was really kind to her. They were not relatives more than relatives.
The special day passed like this. Before going to bed, Ye Jiayao asked Aunt Jiang for an almanac. Unlucky things had happened recently, and she suspected that she was unlucky. As expected, the Rabbit in August was too old.
Well, there are still more than ten days in August. It will pass after a while. I hope the bad luck will come out soon and we will get out of this nightmare soon.
Putting down the almanac, Ye Jiayao lay down holding Xiao Ji and Xiao Rui.
The human heart is too complex, not as loyal as a dog. Once you recognize the owner, you will never leave him for life.
Xiao Ji, Xiao Rui, and Dabao Erbao, I still have you, you will not leave me, right
As if they felt their master's sadness, the two puppies nuzzled their master and purred to please them.
The bright moon hangs high, the glitz recedes, the hustle and bustle goes away, leaving only the silent night.
Xia Chunyu stood in front of the small courtyard door. He raised his hand several times but was unable to put it down. He hesitated for a long time and finally left silently.
The next day, as soon as Ye Jiayao arrived at the restaurant, she was scolded by Manager Zhao.
"Li Yao, what's the matter with you? I asked you to deliver food, but you can mess it up. Five taels of silver will be deducted from your salary this month. Also, the unpaid account from yesterday will be charged to you, a total of one hundred Twenty taels.”
Ye Jiayao didn't say anything, turned around and went into the kitchen, put on an apron, took a radish and started carving, concentrating on it as if it wasn't her that Manager Zhao was talking about just now.
A group of brothers looked at her worriedly.
Deng Haichuan whispered: "What's going on, Manager Zhao? Which restaurant doesn't worship the chef as a Bodhisattva, not to mention someone of Brother Yao's level, who is simply the God of Wealth."
"That's right, it's just that the account hasn't been settled. We can just send someone to settle it later. Why should we deduct Brother Yao's money?" Cui Dongpeng complained.
Zhong Xiang frowned and said: "I think things are not that simple. Everyone, cheer up and get to work!"
The more Deng Haichuan thought about it, the more wrong he became. He found an excuse to take a leave of absence from the manager and ran to find Prince Jing.
"What? How dare they do this to Li Yao?" Xiao Jing suddenly became angry.
"Yes, we all feel that something is wrong. Everyone had a holiday yesterday, so they left Brother Yao to do things alone. After that, he asked Brother Yao to go to Zuichun Tower to deliver food and drinks. Today, he said that Brother Yao messed up the matter and wanted to deduct the money. In addition to wages, we also have to pay for food and drinks, which is a full one hundred and twenty taels. Brother Yao only earns fifty taels a month! Which restaurant would treat a chef like this? I can’t find another restaurant in Jinling City!" Deng Haichuan Road.
Xiao Jingfei was about to explode with anger. It turned out that Yaoyao refused to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with him last night because he was left to do things. What messed up the matter must be someone else who bullied Yaoyao. Who didn't want it in Zuichunlou? How dare you bully Yaoyao? No, no, he must find out the mastermind immediately, otherwise Yaoyao may be bullied into something bad.
"You go back first and try to persuade Li Yao so that she doesn't feel sad. I will find a way." Xiao Jing ordered.
After receiving the promise from Prince Jing, Deng Haichuan felt more relieved. He thought that if Prince Jing took action, there would be no grievances.
Four updates today, the second update is completed.
