In my family, my mother is the eldest, the most powerful one.

When I was young, she was still working in the factory. At that time, she was not so domineering. After the family started a business, she took care of things all the year round, and her temper changed a little with the years.

She became more and more stubborn, but because I didn't live with them and had less contact with them after I graduated and returned to Liucheng, I thought she might not like to "watch" me like before.

Unexpectedly, it has not changed at all.

I kept my voice steady: "Yes."

"My friend has gone abroad, let me take care of her sister."

Because I was driving, I didn't dare to look at Xu Luoye, but this lie made my heart beat faster.

My mother snorted coldly, cut off the call without saying anything.

I held the steering wheel, pursed my lips, and stared at the vehicle ahead.

Xu Luo also asked me softly: "Is... what happened?"

The corners of my mouth raised up, pretending to be relaxed: "No, it's just that my mother arrived early."

I gritted my teeth: "It surprised me."

I should have guessed it earlier, when she asked me for the password.

I didn't see Xu Luoye's expression, but I still comforted him: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

She has seen Song Chicheng's appearance after being beaten, and knows the situation on our side, so she will not be reckless and uncooperative.

Xu Luo also said, "Okay."

It was almost twelve o'clock when the car finally stopped in the parking lot. Xu Luo and I were not in a hurry to get all the things up, but carried two grapefruits.

When I was on the elevator, I held her with my free hand and looked into her eyes: "Are you scared?"

Xu Luo also shook her head: "I'm not afraid." She smiled, "It's not that I haven't been your cousin before, but now I'm playing the role of your friend's sister. It's not too difficult."

I squeezed her hand and said nothing.

When the elevator arrived, we let go of our holding hands, and Xu Luo followed behind me.

When I entered the password, I was expressionless. After the door opened, I called inside: "Mom, Dad."

After shouting, I saw my mother sitting upright on the sofa. She was wearing a hat and was looking at her mobile phone. She heard my voice and didn't even lift her head.

The door of the study room was ajar, and my dad had probably gone into the study room.

I put the bag on the cabinet, and after changing my shoes, I walked towards the living room: "Mom, have you had lunch yet?" I took the initiative to mention Xu Luoye, "If I have, I will let Xiao Xu cook some Now, I'm starving to death."

Xu Luo also called out from behind at the right time: "Hello, Auntie."

Then my mother raised her head, glanced at me, then at Xu Luoye: "Xiao Xu?"

Xu Luo also nodded. She was tender and well-behaved, and her voice was sweet when she answered: "Yes, auntie, my name is Xu Luoye."

My mother looked at me again: "Didn't eat lunch." She straightened her hat and pretended not to mention it, "The child has grown up and took care of the family without telling us."

I pouted: "You are so busy."

"What's the matter with your friend?" My mother asked, looking at Xu Luoye again as she spoke.

I shrugged my shoulders: "Busy business."

My mother let out an "oh", which was drawn very long by her, and she also stared closely at Xu Luoye.

Then she put on a smile, "I brought you some white fungus and red dates back, and I usually pay more attention to my body."

She stood up: "There's nothing else to do now, we'll go back."

"it is good."

"Old Yu." My mother pushed open the door of the study, and my father came out.

Compared with my mother, my father is much more cordial. He and Xu Luo both nodded and smiled, and said, "The National Day is over, so take it easy and go to work."

"Got it, Dad."

All kinds of questions from my imaginary mother were not thrown, and I was relieved when they left.

After thinking about it for a while, I found that there was no big loophole in the first place.

Xu Luo and I didn't buy any large-scale toys. She also slept in the second bedroom before, and the traces of her life were heavy. It looked like we slept separately.

My mother must have checked it carefully, so even if she guessed it, I can quibble.

Or maybe she didn't guess it.

But no matter which one it is, nothing happens, which is the best result.

I sat down on the sofa, looked at Xu Luoye who was still standing, squinted my eyes, and asked, "Is my mother scary?"

Xu Luo also shook his head: "It's not scary."

I laughed: "Don't you feel scary when she stares at you?" I recalled, "I was really under strict control before, so whenever my mother stared at me, I started to be scared, Then be obedient and do what she asked me to do. It wasn't until I was in college and far away that those fears disappeared over time."

Xu Luo also sat down beside me. She took my hand and lowered her eyelashes: "I can't remember what my mother looks like."

Yes, her parents haven't come back for so long.

Xu Luo also clasped her fingers with mine. She turned her head sideways, looked at me, and twitched the corners of her mouth: "But I still remember the last time I met them." She said, "I sent them Go to the entrance of the village and watch them get into the car."

I touched her face: "Don't think about it, don't remember it."

It's really frustrating to have such parents at the stall. They have ignored the family for so many years. The last time I called back, I still asked Xu Luo if she was married.

Xu Luo also: "Yeah." She smiled, "I'm going to cook something."

"it is good."

She came into the kitchen, and I rubbed my brows.

Xiao Mu sent me a message, saying that the situation in the store is also very good today.

I looked towards the kitchen door, and then told her that I would go to see her in the afternoon and bring Xu Luo with me.

I want Xu Luo to help me take care of "Throbbing" for the time being. Last time she said to give her time to think about it, but it has been more than a week and she still hasn't answered me.

Then go to the store and have a look.

After eating and taking a nap, Xu Luo and I set off to throb.

This time it was her car.

It was already the last day of the National Day, and the roads in Liucheng were no longer blocked. Two days ago, Fangyuan called me and said that it was difficult to go out for a meal, and the road was full of cars.

Now it seems that the situation is much better.

After getting out of the car, Xu Luo didn't move immediately.

She looked at me, a little hesitant.

I raised my eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

She asked me: "Come in with you, former colleague..."

She was asking what my colleagues would think.

I patted the back of her hand and smiled: "You are the proprietress now."

"..." Xu Luoye's face slowly turned pink.

I coughed lightly: "Let's go."

I haven't been here for the past few days, but Xiao Mu is reporting the situation to me every day.

Because of the strong advertising before, "Throbbing" has already become an online celebrity shop. This National Day, there are many people who come to Liucheng for tourism, and a small part of them come to throbbing to check in.

Before that, Xiao Mu recruited new employees and started working at different times.

In the past seven days, the shop assistants also had a good rest, and besides that, I still paid three times the wages.

In this way, the service in the store will be better.

The Internet celebrity wall outside is still lined up to check in, but there are not too many people, and some of them are still Internet celebrities.

Xu Luo is also behind me, my advanced shop.

Now I don’t know many of the employees in the store, and I don’t want to disturb their work. I silently went to the ordering area and queued up.

Xiaoji saw me not far away, her eyes lit up, and then she saw Xu Luoye standing beside me, she still walked over, looked at Xu Luoye, and said in a surprised tone: "Little Xu?! "

Xu Luo also showed a smile: "Miss Xiaoji."

Xiaoji's eyes wandered between the two of us, and then he opened his mouth wide: "Sister Yu, do you know Xiao Xu?"

I only told Xiao Mu and Xu Luo that they knew about it, and I thought she had told Xiao Ji, but it turned out she didn't.

"Well." I replied, "Go and do your work."

Xiaoji: "Okay."

There are more customers in the store, because I cooperated with Ms. Chen, there is a wall that was originally used for decorations, but now it has been redecorated, and there are various styles of cups for sale.

The cups are carefully designed and look very beautiful. There are still customers standing in front of this wall, and they are probably thinking about which cup is more suitable.

Xu Luo also sighed with emotion in a low voice: "I haven't been here for a month, and the changes have changed a lot."

I raised my eyebrows and took a step forward: "Yes." I looked at her, "Have you thought about the answer yet?"

There were people all around, so I lowered my voice a bit, as if there were only the two of us here.

Xu Luoye's eyes were still bright, and I saw her throat move.

She was nervous.

I raised the corner of my mouth: "Forget it, I won't force you."

I turned my head and soon it was our turn to order.

There was room to spare, but I went to the office with my stuff.

Xiao Mu was inside, writing some data.

She is serious.

The sound of opening the door diverted her attention, she smiled and said, "Miss Yu." She saw Xu Luoye behind me again, and was a little surprised, "Xiao Xu is here too."

I sat down on the sofa: "Do you want to take a vacation and have a good rest?"

The shop assistants are all on shifts, but Xiao Mu is not, she is basically there.

Xiao Mu: "Yes."

I ate the small cake in front of me and exclaimed, "The taste is getting better and better."

I forked another small piece and handed it to Xu Luoye's mouth. She didn't open her mouth, so I said, "Eat."

She just ate it.

Xiao Mu cleared his throat and asked tentatively, "Sister Yu, you and Xiao Xu..."

She didn't go on, but we knew what she said.

I nodded.

Xiao Mu smiled, and she touched the back of her head: "I just said, why do you always ask about her, so the other party is my sister."

"..." Well, it turned out that I didn't know it well.

Xu Luo also chuckled, I helplessly spread my hand, and she put her hand on it.

Xiao Mu's pupils trembled, and he slapped his face lightly: "Damn, I'm a fool."
