Zhong Lingyu said: "The person who gave me the necklace was my former lover."
Uncle Huo couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After a while, he wrote: [Why once? 】
Some of it was the porridge Uncle Huo made for her, which tasted like her mother's.
So Zhong Lingyu couldn't help but open her heart to Uncle Huo.
She stroked the necklace and whispered: "That person said very outrageous things to me. Although I know that these may be forced lies, I still feel depressed. Today, I saw him and other people again. News of a woman’s engagement. I think we won’t have any interactions with each other in the future.”
Uncle Huo's hand hanging by his side stiffened for a moment.
He wrote on the paper: [Maybe fate has not come yet. If the two miss each other, they will meet again sooner or later. 】
"I don't expect this anymore." Zhong Lingyu smiled and shook his head, "Life is very good now."
Uncle Huo's face dropped: [I don't agree with your idea, it's too negative. 】
"I have experienced a lot of things before." Zhong Lingyu couldn't help but said, "I just want to live a stable life. By the way...Uncle Huo, you seem to have a lot of emotions."
Although Uncle Huo couldn't speak, he could write. Zhong Lingyu had a great time chatting with him, so it was inevitable that he would be happy to say a few more words.
Uncle Huo: [My wife and I had to separate due to some accidents, but I never gave up the idea of getting together with her. As long as you care about each other, nothing is a problem. Little miss, you and your lover are the same. 】
Zhong Lingyu looked at the long list written by Uncle Huo and laughed, "Uncle Huo, did you misunderstand something?"
Uncle Huo: [? 】
"He and I are incomparable to you and your wife. The trust between us is not enough, and the relationship is not deep." Zhong Lingyu thought of everything she had with Shen Huaizhou, which was a little sweet, but more of a depression.
Uncle Huo was silent and didn't write anything more.
He accompanied Zhong Lingyu and went for a walk in the garden.
It was getting late and the garden was a little dark.
Usually when Zhong Lingyu walks alone, the wind occasionally blows and makes her feel frightened.
But now, there is another Uncle Huo following her.
He was hunchbacked and could not speak, but he was tall and fierce-looking.
Makes people feel safe.
Zhong Lingyu told him about his childhood.
She said: "Although I am a girl, my grandfather never detained me in a deep house because of my gender. He would always take me around to discuss business with people. At that time, I was free and easy every day. They all had a fulfilling life, and then..."
The light in Zhong Lingyu's eyes slowly dimmed.
Uncle Huo wrote: [What happened next? 】
"Later, all my father's business moved to Yuncheng. My mother and I had no choice but to go with him to Yuncheng. Soon after, my grandfather and grandmother passed away one after another, and the Yun family's business collapsed, so my father began to treat me harshly. With my mother, we had a miserable life.”
Zhong Lingyu narrated very plainly, "In order to fill my stomach, I would jump over the wall almost every day and sell some embroidery made by my mother. But later, my mother was killed..."
This memory is painful.
Zhong Lingyu didn't want to think about it anymore. She took a deep breath and said, "Fortunately, all the hardships have come to an end, and I will live peacefully in Shaocheng from now on."
Uncle Huo: [Everything will be fine in the future. 】
"Yes, everything will be fine in the future."
Zhong Lingyu smiled.
After chatting for a long time, Zhong Lingyu felt a little sleepy.
She said: "Uncle Huo, I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow."
Uncle Huo nodded and watched Zhong Lingyu leave.
In his eyes, mixed with the bright moonlight, there was an indescribable softness.
The next day, Zhong Lingyu took to the street.
This time, Xiao Wu didn't follow her.
She took Uncle Huo with her.
Uncle Huo had done business before, and Zhong Lingyu wanted to do some wine shop business.
She thought, Uncle Huo knew better.
Just give her some reference.
She and Uncle Huo came to the shop she bought yesterday.
Uncle Huo: [The shop is too remote. It’s best to turn it into a wine shop. The store should be found on Zhongxin Street. 】
Zhong Lingyu thought so too.
Without stopping, she went to Center Street again and visited several shops for rent.
Soon, Zhong Lingyu fell in love with a family.
Although it's not the best location, the price is reasonable and there's a lot of traffic.
Zhong Lingyu asked Uncle Huo his opinion, "What do you think of this place?"
Uncle Huo nodded, indicating that it was okay.
"Then take over this store."
Zhong Lingyu discussed the price with the boss.
When she was seriously discussing business, she was unusually gentle and peaceful.
It adds a bit of sharpness and cunning.
Uncle Huo looked at her blankly.
When Zhong Lingyu suddenly looked over, he lowered his head again.
"Uncle Huo, the price has been agreed upon." Zhong Lingyu's beautiful eyes curled up like a crescent moon.
Uncle Huo looked at her for a few seconds, seemed to suddenly react, and wrote on the paper: "The little lady is so amazing, the price has dropped so much." 】
"Because I watched my grandfather talk about it when I was a child, and I finally learned some basics. Come on, let's go home."
Zhong Lingyu returned home with a full load.
Uncle Huo is still in charge of dinner.
Zhong Lingyu repeatedly emphasized that salt and sugar should not be confused.
Uncle Huo nodded slightly with a smile in his eyes.
The dinner was rich and delicious, and Zhong Lingyu's stomach was bulging.
She walked in the yard for a while, then found Uncle Huo and showed him the list of items she needed to buy.
On the desk, there are pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
Uncle Huo looked up and down and wrote: [A few things are missing. 】
With that said, he pulled Zhong Lingyu away, sat at the desk, and added a few strokes on the paper.
Uncle Huo saw a seal placed next to his elbow.
The seal style is familiar.
Square and long strip.
The side with the engraving is facing upward.
It was a simple portrait of Yun Suqing.
Uncle Huo's eyes flashed slightly and he pressed the seal with his elbow calmly.
Zhong Lingyu didn't notice Uncle Huo's little movements.
She looked at the items on the list and smiled, "Uncle Huo, you think much more carefully than I do."
Uncle Huo: [I have been in the wine shop business before, so I always have some experience. 】
"Then if I don't understand anything from now on, I'll ask Uncle Huo for advice."
[Thank you, Miss, for your trust. 】
Smiling, Zhong Lingyu said: "Excuse me, Uncle Huo, it's so late, you should go and rest early."
Uncle Huo nodded and left.
Late at night, Zhong Lingyu was busy in the study. She was too busy to open a wine shop without even touching the floor.
She thought that Uncle Huo was already asleep at this time.
Unexpectedly, he actually brought a midnight snack.
Zhong Lingyu felt very warm and asked Uncle Huo to come and eat together.
The two of them were eating snacks and planning the wine shop business together.
Zhong Lingyu smelled the clear soap fragrance again.
She raised her eyes and looked at Uncle Huo. She felt that she might be too tired, so she thought about it more.
I was planning to end the day's work and go back to rest.
Zhong Lingyu suddenly discovered that the seal he had placed on the table was missing.
That was given to her by Chen Tingze.
She rummaged for a long time before she asked: "Uncle Huo, did you see a rectangular seal on my table?"
Uncle Huo looked confused: [I didn’t see it. 】
