Chapter 41: a village

Views:

Seeing Pei Yan coming here at this time, Hua Jin was a little surprised. Recently, in order to fulfill customers' orders, Huajin's store opened an hour or two earlier than usual. According to the usual opening hours, she is not in the store at the moment.

Looking at the girl who was not in a stable mood, she made a gesture to Pei Yan, indicating that he should sit at the counter for a while. Pei Yan, who usually likes to argue with her, actually understood what she meant and sat behind the cashier without saying a word.

"Sometimes it's hard to tell right from wrong in love and life." Hua Jin took out two tissues and put them in the girl's hands, "You have different paths and different expectations for the future. If you are reluctantly together, you may also be separated due to various contradictions. Now they are separated, at least they still have a good memory."

"Sorry, did I say too much?" Hua Jin smiled and brought the cup to the girl, "Drink some water."

"No, thank you." The girl took the cup in a daze. "With you talking with me, I feel much better. I'm the one who troubled you..."

She felt a little embarrassed to think that she had said so much in front of strangers. He lowered his head and drank water to hide his shame. Maybe it's because the atmosphere of this store is too comfortable, or because the beautiful store owner in front of her has too soft eyes, so that she has the desire to talk without knowing it: "Do you have someone you like?"

Pei Yan, who was sitting by the counter, turned his head to look here, and quickly turned back.

"Me?" Hua Jin chuckled, "For me, the most important thing is embroidery, so that more people like it and appreciate it."

"That's fine, things like relationships are too hurtful." The girl stopped crying and her spirit was much better, "Men may leave, but not career and money. Even if you have love, you can't give up. yourself. You are so beautiful, don't be put off by those stinky men."

I didn't expect this girl to say such a thing, Hua Jin half-jokingly, half-seriously: "Thank you for complimenting me on my beauty, please rest assured, I won't just cheapen others."

The girl was amused by Hua Jin's words, and she covered her swollen eyes: "I'm sorry, I made you see a joke."

"Every love is beautiful, no matter how it ends, it's not a joke." Hua Jin smiled, "I wish you all the best in the future and a good harvest in your love career."

"Thank you." The girl paid the balance and noticed a white scar on Hua Jin's beautiful and fair hands. The scar is deep and left on the index finger, destroying the perfection of this hand, "You, don't you really like people?"

After asking this sentence, she realized her rudeness.

The most taboo of being a person is to make deep conversations. She and the shopkeeper are only in a host-guest relationship, and she doesn't even know her name. This kind of question is too private, and she shouldn't ask this kind of question.

"Sorry..." She apologized blushing.

"It doesn't count." Hua Jin didn't mind the girl's abruptness, and smiled softly after recalling a moment, "It doesn't count."

Hearing her specious answer, the girl was stunned for a moment, then got up and said, "I understand." There are many things in the world that are more important than love, and the emotions in the world are not just love.

She hadn't seen enough before.

"Store owner, thank you." The girl said sincerely, "I wish your shop's business is getting better and better, and more and more people like embroidery. I wish your wishes come true."

dreams come true…

Hua Jin smiled like a flower: "Thank you, I will."

After sending the girl out of the store, Hua Jin looked back to see Pei Yan lying on the counter, and couldn't help but smile: "Sleepy?"

"What are you sleepy about? I'm afraid she'll be embarrassed when she sees me. I'm a big man, but I'm not interested in listening to your women's private conversations." Pei Yan pushed the breakfast box, "I'll give you a packaged breakfast, hurry up and take it. go eat."

Hua Jin walked to the sofa and sat down, took a sip: "It tastes like the custard buns at the breakfast restaurant that charges a lot?" The day Sister Qin's son ran away from home, Pei Yan took her to eat here.

"Didn't you say that the food in that house is delicious?" Pei Yan walked to the sofa and sat down, and said casually, "I happened to pass by there in the morning, so I bought one for you."

"Thank you." Hua Jin took a sip of freshly squeezed soy milk, "Have you eaten?"

"I get up and run every morning, and I finish eating by this time." Pei Yan picked up the brochure under the table and flipped through it, "You seem to have opened the store earlier recently?"

"Well, Mr. Yang's grandmother's birthday is coming soon. The embroidered screen he ordered has not been completed, and there have been many customers recently, so he has to open the store early." After a custard wrapped his stomach, his empty stomach finally felt at ease. " In our line of business, when business is good, you can’t be lazy, miss good opportunities, and don’t know when you can make money back.”

"You can't make enough money. You close the store at ten o'clock in the evening and open the store at seven in the morning. Can you bear it?" Pei Yan couldn't help but said, "Take the subway from you to this place, and you have to transfer twice. , you have to get up at five or six o'clock, and you only sleep for a few hours at night?"

"I didn't expect you to know the subway routes." Hua Jin opened her eyes wide and smiled at Pei Yan, "It seems that you are still a very down-to-earth rich man, disrespectful."

"I..." Displeased by Hua Jin's reaction, Pei Yan took a deep breath, "Can't you put normal things in your mind?"

"I know what you mean, but sometimes there is no other way than grit your teeth and fight hard." Hua Jin smiled, "Thank you for bringing me breakfast on purpose."

"Who sent it on purpose, I just dropped by." Pei Yan frowned, "After breakfast, is there anything I can help in the store?"

"I got off work first last night. The dumplings have been put in the store. There is nothing to do now. Just sit and rest." Hua Jin continued to eat breakfast with her head down. The steaming porridge made her eyes a little itchy. I couldn't help blinking a few more times before I suppressed the itch.

"I don't think that woman said it right." Pei Yan walked around the house for several times, and after Hua Jin had eaten almost, she sat down next to her, "It's all from the same village, where did it come from? different worlds?"

"A village?" Hua Jin looked at Pei Yan in surprise, "How do you know they belong to a village?"

"It's not just them, I'm from the same village as you." Pei Yan raised his chin. "Ten years ago, there was a world-famous song lyrics that was sung like this."

Hua Jin: "… "

"You and I, heart-to-heart, live in the global village." Pei Yan looked at Hua Jin, "Look, we all belong to the same village, so what is the difference between the world and the world? In the final analysis, we just don't love each other enough. If they are deep enough, they are together thousands of miles apart; if they are not in love enough, even if one is in the east city and the other is in the west city, it is a long-distance relationship, a different world."

"What you said... It's an Olympic song." Hua Jin was stunned, and it took a long while to find her own language, "Why do I think your words are a bit crooked?"

"What is crooked and not crooked, anyway, things like feelings don't make sense." Pei Yan bent over to accept the empty lunch box on the table, "The emotional experience of others cannot become yours. The ending of the relationship is not yours, don't Listening to other people's nonsense affects me."

Hua Jin: "… "

She looked at the man in an expensive shirt and helped her put away the lunch box on the table, feeling like the abominable Dong Yong, pulling the fairy down from the mortal world: "Don't move, I'll take this one."

"What to collect, sit and rest for a while while there are no guests now." Pei Yan glared at her and took the lunch box out to throw out the garbage, "Do you really think your body is made of iron? When you are busy these days, I will bring You go see an old doctor and let him see your legs."

Hua Jin stared at his back, slowly lowered her eyelids, and reached out to rub her knees.

That rainy night, she was lying on the ground, blood flowing out of her body, sewage flowing through her hands, her face, and her wounds.

The car that hit her just stopped there, and the driver looked at her disdainfully, as if looking at another ant.

When the lights came on again, she thought the driver would choose to run over her.

At that moment, another car approached...

"Hua Jin." The man in the white shirt came over, with a slight smile on his handsome face, "Here you are."

The rich fragrance of flowers spread to his nose, Hua Jin looked at his palm, where was a bunch of white gardenias, it was June, and there were still gardenias

"It's fragrant." Hua Jin took the flower and put it on the fruit plate, "Thank you."

Looking at the gardenias lined up in a row, Pei Yan sighed, but he didn't expect that it was the first time in his life that he gave flowers to a woman, and he sent a bag of gardenias for ten yuan: "There were two children just now. I sold it outside and said I was participating in a charity sale, so I bought the bag."

"I like it very much." Hua Jin smiled at Pei Yan.

"It's just a few worthless gardenias..." Pei Yan coughed dryly, "If you can't make it in time for Yang Shao's embroidery screen, it doesn't matter if you make it later, I'll tell you about Yang Shao's side."

Hua Jin smiled: "Okay."

Seeing the polite smile on Hua Jin's face, Pei Yan knew that although she said it well, she would definitely fulfill Yang Shao's request on time, and he sighed: "Forget it, I have to drop by from here tomorrow. After that, I'll buy you breakfast."

Hua Jin held a gardenia in her hand and smiled, "Thank you."

There were footsteps, and Pei Yan looked back. It was Hua Jin's friend who came. He coughed dryly: "I'm leaving, you need to rest."

Tan Yuan looked at the handsome man who nodded reservedly at him, and turned to look at Hua Jin, these two...

As soon as Pei Yan left, Tan Yuan threw himself in front of Hua Jin: "Hua Hua, did you take this beautiful man down?"

"What are you thinking?" Hua Jin quickly turned the gardenia in a different direction without letting Tan Yuan press it, "I didn't tell you earlier, we are just a pure relationship between men and women."

"It's early in the morning, when a man and a widow stay here, where is the purity?" Tan Yuan sat down and glanced at Hua Jin, "Actually, I think this Mr. Pei is very good, good-looking and rich. Don't think about it?"

"What are you thinking about?" Hua Jin couldn't help laughing. "Why should I think about it? You, gossip less and do more work. Are you ready to talk to the new employee?"

"It's been discussed, my mother is going to sign an employee contract with her this afternoon." Tan Yuan saw that Hua Jin didn't want to talk about this topic, she walked to her workbench and sat down, "For now, I'll hire an embroiderer first, if the business needs to be done in the future. It's still so good, let's invite a few more."

"Yeah." Hua Jin took her eyes away from the gardenia and nodded slowly.

"Brother Pei." Yang Shao greeted Pei Yan excitedly when he saw Pei Yan's appearance, "You're finally here. The Xu family came to my house every day for the past two days. A few days. But this place is small, I can't even turn my feet, can I stay with you for a few days?"

Pei Yan glanced at the new four-bedroom, two-hall house, and said expressionlessly, "No."

"why?"

"I'm afraid others will think I have a problem with my sexuality." Pei Yan sat down on the sofa, "It doesn't matter if you don't know your relationship, I'm someone who wants to live a good life."

"Brother Pei, you attacked yourself again..." Yang Shao was depressed for two seconds, and suddenly his face changed, "No, Brother Pei, what did you mean by that?"

"What did I say?" Pei Yan turned on the TV without looking at Yang Shao.

"Do you have someone you like?" Yang Shao looked at him suspiciously.

"No!"

Denied so quickly, it must have been.

Yang Shao sat next to Pei Yan and bumped him with his elbow: "Although I don't have a girlfriend, I'm very skilled at picking girls. Tell me about it and I'll give you an idea."

With a sneer, Pei Yan moved to the side: "She is different from those women like you."

"Of course, how can a woman who can make you fall in love with Brother Pei be a mortal." Yang Shao nodded again and again, and began to count the women who had recently had an encounter with Pei Yan. After thinking for a long time, only Hua Jin and Xu Si, He looked at Pei Yan with half a doubt, "Brother Pei, I only made things difficult for Xu Changhui yesterday. You won't tell me, do you like his cousin?"

"Who is his cousin?" Pei Yan frowned.

"Xu Si." Yang Shao said, "I heard that this guy has been asking about your contact information since he returned to China. If it wasn't for everyone who knew that you can't mess with... It's not convenient for you to tell her the contact information, maybe she will be early. I will contact you."

"Where does this kind of woman who likes bullying in school fit me?" Pei Yan stood up and said in a light tone, "You should stay here and cultivate yourself."

"Brother Pei, you are my brother..."

"I don't have a brother like you..."

Yang Shao: "..."

Can you not despise it so obviously

"Brother Pei, do you... mean that to the flower embroiderer?" Yang Shao looked at Pei Yan cautiously.

Pei Yan was silent for a moment: "I don't know."

His parents died early, and he grew up with his grandfather. He doesn't know how to get along in a normal family, let alone what love is.

"That's right, have you ever seen her, your face is red, and you can't wait to put her in your arms?"

Pei Yan thought about it for a long time and shook his head: "No."

Hua Jin will only make him short of breath with anger, and his face is red.

"Then do you think she is the most beautiful woman in the world, and no other woman in the world can compare?"

Pei Yan thought back carefully: "She does look pretty good."

Yang Shao thinks that Pei Ge's attitude doesn't seem to be deeply rooted. Could it be that he got along with the embroiderer more often, which gave him the illusion of love.

"It's actually like that between men and women." Yang Shao smiled slyly, "I wanted to eat her, smothered her, and..."

"Don't talk about it." Pei Yan's brows were furrowed. Usually Yang Shao said these things, he could pretend he didn't hear them, but this "she" referred to Hua Jin, which made him unbearable, "Say something serious. ."

"Men love women's love, food and sex are also, where is not serious." Yang Shao shook his head and sighed, "Brother Pei, this kind of thing is too complicated and may not be suitable for you."

Pei Yan ignored him and just frowned.

I don't want to see her endure hardships, I'm half angry with her, I don't want her to be sad, I hope she will be smooth sailing, and I don't like others blaspheming her. Isn't it tempting

"Mr. Mark, this is your idea?" Hua Jin looked at the design draft and had to admit that it was his talent that Mark, who was only 30 years old, could have such a position in the fashion industry.

She doesn't know much about fashion, but as a woman, the first thought when she saw this design was that she couldn't help but imagine what it would look like on her body.

"What do you think?" Mark asked with a gentle smile.

"It's beautiful." Hua Jin said, "The fusion of modern fashion and ancient weather elements is as beautiful as many girls' dreams."

"I'm glad that Miss Hua likes it." The smile on Mark's face was even gentler. "I want to give you the embroidery pattern on this skirt. I believe you can make this dream even more fulfilling."

Hua Jin was stunned for a moment, without modesty: "I will try my best."

"It's rare to ask Miss Hua to come out, let's not just talk about work. The hand-ground coffee here tastes very good, you can try it." Mark raised the coffee cup, "I saw an interview about Miss Hua on TV by chance a few days ago. "

Hua Jin picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Are you talking about that TV show?" She's been too busy these days. If Mark hadn't said that he had work to discuss with her, she wouldn't want to go to the appointment.

"Yes." Mark nodded, "After watching that show, the image of Miss Hua in my heart has grown even taller."

"I didn't expect Mr. Mark to watch this kind of show." Hua Jin put down the coffee cup, "It's just a coincidence, it's not as good as it says on TV."

Mark glanced at the coffee in her hand, called the waiter, and ordered a few cakes. After the cake was on the table, he said softly, "The cakes in this store are also delicious. The sweetness of the cakes can just dissolve the bitterness brought by coffee, and the bitterness is sweet. It's like the insight of life."

Hua Jin smiled and said nothing.

She really didn't like the bitter taste of coffee, but Mark could see it.

Scooping a piece of cake with a spoon, the sweet cream melted in your mouth and washed away the bitterness in your mouth.

"Flower embroiderer, what a coincidence."

Hearing someone calling her, Hua Jin turned her head and saw Chen Jiang standing not far behind her.

She somehow felt that Chen Jiang looked at her as if he was looking at Pan Jinlian who was dating Ximen Qing.

The author has something to say: Pei Yan: You and I, heart to heart, heart to heart, heart to heart~

Chen Jiang: Alas, Pei Yan has been cuckolded!
