Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 551 Do you two want it? (312)

After finishing dinner, Xia Zhi thought about clearing away the tableware and other things, but was quickly driven away by Xia Meng.

"It's almost six o'clock, why don't you hurry up? When doing things for others, you have to put your mind on that. I don't want there to be people in our family who only get paid and don't work."

Being criticized by Xia Meng with such harsh words, Xia Zhi had no choice but to put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands.However, I am very happy, not only because I don’t have to wash the dishes anymore, but also because my sister has not become a nerd who only thinks about reading and studying. As a family member, Xia Zhi naturally hopes that her sister Able to have a relatively more normal future.

"Then I'm going out and I'll be back later. If anything happens, just call me."

"I got it." Xia Meng nodded with satisfaction, watching Xia Zhi walk from the living room to the entrance, and then walked out of the apartment, and then withdrew his gaze.

He stretched his body and walked towards the kitchen holding the chair he had just sat on with one hand.Today, I will definitely be able to do it even more perfectly.

Xia Zhi walked out of the apartment holding an umbrella. The rain was still not letting up. This gave Xia Zhi a headache, but there was nothing he could do.Such a heavy rain will still wet your clothes even if you hold an umbrella, but the wet area will be relatively smaller.

Just like Xia Meng said, maybe I really need to buy a raincoat.

Xia Zhi walked into the rain with an umbrella, and a gust of wind blew over her. The raindrops that had not been completely covered in the first place drifted diagonally onto her body. Xia Zhi felt that her clothes were stained with a lot of rain again.With such heavy rain, there is really nothing we can do.

It’s already going to get wet anyway, why don’t we just close the umbrella and run over?Such ridiculous thoughts flashed through Xia Zhi's mind, and then they were thrown out of his mind.Obediently holding the umbrella, he slowly walked towards the coffee shop.

This road, which was originally quiet and deserted, could not see anyone because of the heavy rain.Despite this, Xia Zhi still felt very peaceful walking on this road.Of course, it would be best if the heavy rain in the sky is ignored.

When Xia Zhi walked to the door of the coffee shop and looked at the bright lights in the shop, he couldn't see anyone next to the window. He thought there should be no customers in the shop.

Pushing the door open, Natsuki saw the store manager standing at the counter playing with his mobile phone without any disguise, and Aya Tachibana and Mayumi sitting on the chairs in front of the counter talking.Probably because there were no guests, the three of them seemed particularly relaxed.

The sound of wind chimes when Xia Zhi opened the door also disturbed the three of them, and they all turned to look in the direction of the store entrance.

"It's coming, it's coming." Tachibana Aya looked particularly happy, but Xia Zhi easily guessed why she was happy: "You can have dinner earlier today."

Surrendering to desire is a bit too simple for her.

"Natsuchi." Mayumi called Natsuki as a greeting, and Natsuki returned the favor.

On the contrary, the store manager looked at Xia Zhi: "There don't seem to be many customers today. It rains like this every day. I can't make any money at all. I still have to pay you wages. Otherwise, Xia Zhi, you won't come here these two days?"

"I don't have to come back tomorrow." Xia Zhi shook his head and walked towards the staff room.Because he walked over slowly, his clothes didn't get too wet, which should be good news for Xia Zhi.

"Sigh. Life is not easy." The store manager sighed and then started playing with his mobile phone.

Due to the heavy rain these days, the income that was already barely able to survive without turning into negative growth has become even worse. The store manager probably has his own worries.

Xia Zhi came to the employee room, changed his clothes and walked out. The store manager had already walked out of the counter and sat down in front.

"A cup of coffee if you want, thank you."

Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows: "If you were in there just now, you could soak it by yourself."

"Didn't you see that I'm busy? What if I lose the chain when I'm attacking the leader because of making coffee? Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, and I'm going home after drinking."

The store manager was unreasonably exercising the privileges belonging to the store manager, Xia Zhi sighed and turned to boil water.

"Do you two want it?"

This was said to Mayumi and Tachibana Aya, and Mayumi was very polite as always.

"No, I'm going back soon."

"No, I want juice, not hot food." But Tachibana Aya was not so polite to you as always.

Everyone is pretty much the same as before, but when it comes to me, things change.Life is not easy.

Xia Zhi also sighed.While the water is boiling, start washing and cooking the rice.

"What's wrong, you started sighing at such a young age? The more you sigh, the more happiness will disappear without a trace." After hearing Xia Zhi's sigh, the store manager expressed his opinion.

"It's nothing, it's just that it's been raining so heavily for three consecutive days, so I feel a little troubled."

Those things that happened before were also not suitable topics to talk about. Xia Zhi's emotional intelligence was not that low yet.After finding an excuse to deal with it casually, Natsuki cooked dinner for Tachibana Aya.

"I see, the recent weather is indeed a bit boring. It would be fine if it rained just a little bit, but with such heavy rain for three consecutive days, no matter what I do, it becomes troublesome. The most important thing is that there seems to be little business recently. None." The store manager nodded with deep feeling.

Tachibana Aya, who had been looking at Natsuki, was still looking at him, frowning slightly, and was about to say something, but after thinking about it, he closed his mouth again.

Although I am friends with Mayumi and the store manager, there are some things that are not suitable to be said directly in front of everyone.Tachibana Aya also has her own considerations.

In order to send the store manager away quickly, Xia Zhi brought the brewed coffee in front of him, then turned around and continued to make Tachibana Aya's dinner.The sound of hot oil and the faint aroma of food lured the three people present who had not yet eaten.

Mayumi looked at her phone and saw that it was still a few minutes until six o'clock.Really.

The store manager put away his mobile phone and drank the coffee quickly in small sips. Xia Zhi turned his head and glanced at him, realizing that he was "ruining" a good thing like this, so he couldn't help but glare at him.

The store manager put the cup on the counter, as boldly as if he had finished a bowl of wine in one gulp and placed it on the table, making a lot of noise.

Xia Zhi swore that if he said "have another cup", Xia Zhi would definitely add water to his coffee.

"Ah, it's time to go home for dinner. I'll leave first. Anyway, we only have a few minutes, so Mayumi, you should change your clothes and go back." The store manager stood up and walked out of the store: "I'm starving to death. "

Mayumi went back to the staff room to change clothes. Natsuki watched the store manager walk out of the store and then quickly came back.

"Hand me the umbrella and put it under the counter."

Xia Zhi rolled his eyes.

　Gone today!It should be gone!
