Give you some sunshine and you will shine brightly
One sentence shut the mother-in-law's mouth, and her unexpected return left her unprepared. Thinking that she would not have a peaceful life in the future, Mother Mu felt heartbroken and distressed.
"My daughter-in-law didn't mean it, mom, shall we give Zhiyuan a call?"
"Never mind, just wait until he comes back tonight."
His mother nodded.
The old lady looked at Shu Xiao Ai and said, "Come with me."
"Yes, grandma."
Entering her room, the old lady put a small package on the bed and then took out a thick book from the wall cabinet and handed it to her. "This, you take some time to look at it privately, but remember, when looking at this book, don't let others see it, every page must be looked at carefully until it's memorized in your heart, and then burn it with your own hands, understand?"
Seeing the solemn expression on Lao Taitai's face, Shu Xiao Ai didn't dare to be slow, "Yes, I've taken note of it."
"Uh-huh, I'll give you half a year for this book. If there's anything you don't understand within that time, feel free to ask me, I'll be here."
"Okay, then I'll go first, grandma. I still have to go to work at 5 o'clock."
"Little Ai."
She stood up and turned around, "Huh? Grandma has more instructions?"
"What's your relationship with our Lao San?"
"I had a romance when I was in college, but we broke up later."
The old lady nodded, "Yes, you can go back now, be careful on the road."
"Good."
Shu Xiao Ai put the book into her own bag and then left the door.
As she walked into the living room, her mother's face turned cold and shouted, "Stop right there!"
"What's wrong with Mrs. Mu?"
"Shu Xiao Ai, I don't care how you know our family's old lady, from today on, you are not allowed to step into my house again, do you understand?"
"Excuse me, Mrs. Mu. I may still come to visit Grandma in the future, please forgive me, thank you." After that, she walked out of the living room.
The mother sat there, her hand suddenly clenched, Little Yu, don't toast without drinking, or you'll be punished with a drink.
Shu Xiao Ai came out of the dressing room, it was already around 4:40.
She took the bus and arrived at One Thousand and One Nights just as it struck five o'clock sharp.
After entering, Hongtang was not there, but the female manager actively arranged work for her, presumably it was arranged by Hongtang in advance.
Shu Xiao Ai didn't work on the first floor, but instead stood guard outside the private room on the second floor. When guests needed drinks, she would deliver them, and after they left, she would clean up the private room.
A waitress was in charge of two private rooms, but unexpectedly, the guests from room 207 were actually Qin's family.
Qin Zizhen, Qi Wenjing, and another girl who looks a bit like Qi Wenjing, plus Qin Zizhen's special assistant.
When they saw Shu Xiao Ai, everyone was stunned.
Qī Wénjìng hooked her lips into a shallow smile, "Hey, how did you end up working here?"
"Mind your own business, I'm willing, I'm happy, do you have the right to interfere?" Shu Xiao Ai also responded with a smile, but the words were hidden with thorns, and couldn't help but make Wen Nu, who was similar to He Qi in temperament, angry. "I say, is this how you service staff speak to customers?"
"The waitress is also human, sir, please come in." She stretched out her hand and made a welcoming gesture.
He glanced at her with a hint of mockery in the corner of his mouth, said nothing, and led Qī Wénjìng inside by the hand.
Shu Xiao Ai served them wine, melon seeds and fruit, then withdrew from the room.
Guarding at the door, I didn't expect that from 6 o'clock to 10 o'clock, these four people didn't come out. The guest in room 208 left an hour later than them.
She had no choice but to continue holding on, waiting for them to leave before going in to clean up.
"Waiter!" Qin Zijun's voice came from inside.
Shu Xiao Ai pushed open the door and smiled, asking, "Hello sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Go and bring me a pot of tea."
"Alright."
Shu Xiao Ai turned around to make tea and then carried a pot of hot tea in, carefully placing it on the tea table.
"Pour some for everyone." Qi Wenjing spoke up.
Shu Xiao Ai picked up the teapot and poured four cups. As soon as she put down the teapot, she said, "Pass me one."
"Miss, the tea is very hot, I suggest you let it cool down a bit before drinking."
"I just want something hot."
Shu Xiao Ai had no choice but to hand over the teacup, and just as Qi Wen Jing took it, her hand suddenly contracted, causing the cup to fall to the ground. The scalding hot tea splashed onto Qi Wen Jing's leg, burning her so badly that she let out a loud shriek, "Ah! I'm going to be burned to death!"
Qin Zizhen quickly handed over a paper towel to help her wipe it, Qi Wenjing's sister Qi Wenzhu was not convinced, "Are you doing this on purpose?"
Shu Xiao Ai stood there with a straight face, "What are you talking about? I have no grudges against her, why would I do such a thing on purpose? Who was it that didn't take the thing when I passed it to them? I think whoever did it knows very well in their own heart. And by the way, there are surveillance cameras over there, so framing someone without evidence won't work."
Shu Xiao Ai stretched out her hand and pointed at a surveillance probe on the wall, then turned around and walked out of the door.
Everyone looked towards the place where the monitor was, and indeed there was a monitor.
"Wait, I'll go find the boss here."
Qin Zijun hastily pulled Qi Wenjing, "I'm fine, forget it, she's your ex-wife after all. Even if she's venting her anger on me, I have to endure it, no big deal. The burn isn't severe, I'll go to the bathroom and rinse my leg with cold water first. Wénzhú, you come with me."
"Good."
The two sisters went out together and headed for the bathroom.
"Sister, the boss of this place is the director of my gynecology department. Why don't I tell him to get rid of Shu Xiao Ai?"
Zi Wenjing heard this and immediately stopped in her tracks, "Wen Zhu, why didn't you say so earlier?"
"You didn't tell me you couldn't see her at all either."
"I'll go to the restroom now, you go downstairs and see if your director is down there, tell him, no matter how much money it takes, just get her out of here."
"Alright, sis, you go wash up and be careful."
"Good."
Hong Tang sat on the sofa, raised his wrist to look at the time, and said to the person opposite him, "Or I'll find an employee to replace her?"
Zhong Yucheng swirled the wine in his cup and said, "It's still early."
Hongtang changed his sitting posture, "Actually, I'm a bit curious, your old man might let you marry Song Linqiang this year, then what about her? Will you still maintain an underground relationship?"
"If I don't get married, we'll have nothing to do with each other."
"What's wrong with this again? Are you tired of playing?"
"Probably."
"I thought you had finally found true love, but in fact, it's just filling the emptiness in your heart. How long do you want to keep doing this?"
"I don't know." A bland tone, concealing one's true emotions.
Just as he finished speaking, a voice calling "Director Hong" made Hong Tang immediately sit up straight.
He looked at the comer and found it was a young female doctor from his own office.
"Xiao Qi, come and play!"
Qī Wénzhú sat down and nodded, "I've always known that this is Director Hóng's store, so I came with my sister and brother-in-law to take a look. It's really quite high-end."
"It's okay."
"Actually, Director Hong, I wanted to ask a favor of you."
Hong Tang raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's going on?"
"Is there a female waitress on the second floor here named Shu Xiao Ai?"
Hong Tang immediately looked at Zhong Yu Chen and nodded, "That's right, what's wrong?"
"Are you going to fire her?"
"Why?" Hongtang asked again, "Have you had a festival with her?"
She shook her head, "No."
"Why such a requirement?"
"It's because she was my brother-in-law's ex-wife, and now my sister is pregnant... you know what I mean." She didn't continue speaking, believing that Hongtang would understand her implication.
"No matter what reason, we can't fire people casually here." One sentence that made a stance clear.
"Alright then, I'll go find my sister first."
"Okay, see you next time."
"Uh-huh."
Watching her walk away, Hong Tang stared at Zhong Yu very much, and it was somewhat unexpected that "she is actually a divorced woman?"
Zhong Yuchen's mouth was curved into a smile, "Scared?"
"Not... I'm saying you even want those who are already married... You're so desperate that you don't care?"
"What's wrong with being married? As long as one's body is clean, what can't be done? Anyway, it's not a woman to be married off."
“…………”
Shu Xiao Ai tidied up and went downstairs to find Zhong Yu Chen also there.
She quickly walked up and said, "Since you're also here, might as well give me a ride home."
"Second Master has been waiting for you here until now." Hong Tang interrupted.
Shu Xiao Ai's eyes widened, and Zhong Yu Chen suddenly spat out two words, "Too talkative."
"On the way home, he faintly opened his mouth and said, 'Did you see your ex-husband tonight?'"
"Have you seen it too?"
He turned around and said, "His little aunt came to find Hongtang and asked him to fire you, so I knew."
Upon hearing this, Shu Xiao Ai turned her body and looked at him, "I know that the reason I wasn't fired is all because of your relationship."
He unexpectedly stretched out his hand and touched her face, smiling faintly, "It's good that you know."
The car sped up quickly in the dark night, until it stopped at the gate of Jinxiu Villa, waiting for the man in black to slowly open the door, and then drove in.
After getting off the car, Dudu as usual entwined itself around Shu Xiao Ai's feet. She picked it up and rushed into the living room, quickly opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of drink, twisted it open and drank.
She downed half a bottle in one gulp and only then did Shu Xiaoxiao catch her breath, "I was almost parched to death."
"There's not enough water in the Hongsha store for you to drink."
"It's better not to drink outside, because if someone spikes your drink, the consequences are unthinkable."
"Hmm... I didn't expect it, but your brain is still quite useful at this moment."
"Of course." She said with a self-satisfied smile.
He glanced at her and said, "Give you some sunshine and you'll be radiant."
"President, then give more sunshine..."
"It's still making progress bit by bit..."
"This doesn't even meet the requirements, forget it, I'm going to wash up and go to bed."
She hastily returned to her room, locked the door from the inside, then took out the book given by Old Lady Mu and lay on the bed flipping through it.
There is no title on the cover of the book, and it looks like it's been around for some years. The paper is very rough and the pages are quite yellowed.
But it doesn't matter anyway.
