My fruit shop became popular in the world

Wonderful Fruit Store welcomes brown sugar back, and everything seems to be back to the beginning.

It's just that the character of the returning black cat seems to be quite different from the original one.

Brown Sugar used to be a soft and cute little sweet cat. He liked to interact with people, and he could play for an afternoon with a ball of yarn. He deserved to be the favorite of the fruit shop group.

But now, brown sugar not only refuses to be approached by everyone, but also refuses to play with its favorite toy, causing the shop assistants to worry.

"Boss, is Brown Tang angry that we didn't visit it?" Yonago came to find Xuanchu privately.

She just tried to tease the cat with a laser pointer, but Chang Xiao ignored her, making her at a loss, as if she was about to cry.

"Uh, don't worry too much, maybe it's because Brown Tang has grown up and doesn't like to play with these toys." Xuan Chu explained dryly.

After finally comforting Yonago, Sun Lang came to him for help again: "The boss is not good! Brown sugar is fighting with the courier!"

"What?!"

Xuanchu rushed out, and saw the black cat wrestling with Jiuyao, who had striking purple fur, right in front of his fruit shop.

Good guy, even though he is petite and not as big as a puppy, his combat effectiveness is not weak.Jumping, claws, scratching the upper face... a set of cat and cat combination fist moves are fierce and extremely vigorous.

Jiu Yao was caught by him so that his proud hairstyle was messed up, and he was so angry that he shouted to fight him desperately, forgetting that this was in the human world, and there were crowds of onlookers beside him, and he was about to change back to his original shape.

Seeing this scene, Xuan Chu was so frightened that his heart jumped out of his throat, and he shouted: "Stop! Otherwise, the fruit for a month will be broken!"

His voice really worked, one man and one cat froze, and looked over in panic.

Jiu Yao: "No!"

Black Cat: "Aww!"

Xuan Chu: "..."

At the moment they are in harmony.

"...Come in and we'll talk." Seeing more and more people eating melons around, Xuan Chu sighed and called them into the store.

Changxiao rushed forward with a stride, ran into the fruit shop before Jiuyao, turned around at last, and gave him a provocative "owoo".

Jiu Yao rolled up his sleeves: "You stinky cat—"

"Do you still want to eat the fruit?" A faint sentence floated in the air.

"...Think about it." Jiu Yao shrank his neck and said listlessly.

"Good." Xuan Chu nodded in satisfaction, "It's done."

Jiu Yao subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch the fruit shaped like a water drop.The whole body of the fruit is purple-red, the peel is smooth, and it has a sweet fragrance.

He recognized that it was a fruit called "fig" in the human world.

The name "fig" is actually a misunderstanding. It is not true that it does not bloom, but that the flowers are unique and hidden in the depression of the receptacle, making it difficult to find.

With joy on Jiuyao's face, he divided the fig into two halves with his bare hands, and the sweet fragrance overflowed everywhere. The flesh is pink, and the strands are tightly clustered together, like an unopened flower.

"Sweet, so sweet!" He praised loudly, watching Chang Xiao with his eyes while eating.

Xuan Chu's mouth twitched.

This guy is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!

Before Changxiao got mad, he quickly peeled a fig and handed it to the black cat: "Come on, open your mouth, ah—"

Tsk, I'm not a child, so don't think you can coax me with this trick.

Chang Xiao flicked his tail and turned his head arrogantly.

"Don't you like it?" Xuan Chu muttered to himself, "Otherwise, forget it."

"!!!" No, you should struggle again anyway!

Chang Xiao turned his head in disbelief, might as well meet Shang Xuan Chu's smiling eyes.

"..."

Xuan Chu rubbed his head, said with a smile: "Eat it, if it's not enough, I'll peel it off for you."

In the end, Chang Xiao was still defeated by the temptingly sweet figs, and with his tail cocked, he plunged into the sea of ​​delicacies.

After Jiuyao and Changxiao have had a full meal, their anger has almost subsided, at least they will not fight under the same roof.

"Tell me, what's going on." Xuan Chu turned to Jiu Yao.

Jiu Yao called Qu for himself: "Brother Xuan Chu, I don't know! I just came to get the goods, and this black cat suddenly jumped up and wanted to scratch me. I was just defending myself!"

"Aww!" Chang Xiao sneered in his heart, baring his teeth at him.

"Look, he's here again!" Jiu Yao complained.

Xuan Chu quickly held down the cat's ready-to-move paw, and gave Jiu Yao another look: "Okay, don't fan the flames."

Jiu Yao: "...No brother, why is this my fault again?"

Xuan Chu was eccentric and confident: "He's just a kitten, what can he understand?"

Jiuyao Waterfall Tears: "Is it still too late for me to become my original form?"

Who is not a cute pet?

But having said that, the black cat's unreasonable manner seemed a little familiar.

Jiu Yao stroked his chin, and a figure flashed in front of his eyes.

At the same time in this store, someone provoked him for no reason and confronted him.

The black cat in front of him overlapped with the man in his memory, and the details were so similar.

He slapped his thigh, pointed at the black cat and said loudly, "He is the Taoist Lord Changxiao!"

"Keep your voice down!" Xuan Chu was anxious, and rushed forward to cover his mouth, sticking it to his ear as a reminder.

Chang Xiao's eyes darkened, and his relaxed tail straightened instantly.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." Jiu Yao managed to break free, his eye circles turned red quickly, and he said pitifully, "Brother Xuanchu, you hurt me."

"Uh, I was in a hurry, so I acted a little harder, I'm sorry." Xuan Chu hurriedly apologized, with a nervous expression on his face, "Did it hurt you? Does it matter?"

Jiu Yao squeezed the corners of his eyes, and was about to make a fool of himself, when he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eyes, an alarm sounded in his mind, and he instinctively took a step back.

I saw a black shadow like a whirlwind rushing towards him, just a little bit, his face was going to be painted.

Jiu Yao: "..."

This scene is so familiar.

Xuan Chu was also taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly grabbed the black cat with fried fur, and locked it tightly in his arms.

"Brown Tang, don't make trouble!" He frowned slightly, and his tone was a little more severe.

The black cat folded its ears to the sides, and let out an inexplicable growl from its throat.

Xuan Chu sighed softly, and said to Jiu Yao: "Jiu Yao, you go and do your work first."

"But he—" Jiu Yao wanted to say something, but was stared at by Xuan Chu, so he obediently confessed and left.

The fur that exploded on the black cat's body was gradually put away.

Xuan Chu smoothed his hair one after another, and a deep look appeared in his eyes.

"Knock knock knock."

"Please come in."

"Boss, are you looking for me?" The door was gently pushed open, and Yonago leaned in.

Xuan Chu said with a smile: "Nothing else, just want to ask, is the new design draft of the gift box finished?"

Colleagues don't know that Yonagoyi has another identity, that is, a painter "a little transparent", who is responsible for designing gift boxes for fruit shops.

Since the fruit shop launched the gift box, the products of this series have been selling well. The two parties have maintained cooperation and launched new gift boxes from time to time, which effectively stimulated the public's desire for consumption.

But because Yonago was ashamed of the violent horse, he asked Xuanchu not to reveal his identity to the outside world, and Xuanchu has always followed it very well. He always contacted him on the Internet through Xiaoqin, and never mentioned this matter offline.

She was a little surprised why the boss suddenly asked about this.

"The first draft is almost ready." She said cautiously, "Is there any problem?"

"Don't be nervous, there's nothing else, I just want to see the drawing." Xuan Chu's gaze naturally passed over the black cat, "Is it convenient?"

"It's convenient, of course it's convenient." She hurriedly said, taking out her phone, "Then boss, I'll send it to you via WeChat?"

Xuan Chu nodded: "Okay, you send it over, and I will taste it with the brown sugar."

The black cat, which was lying on Xuanchu's shoulder pretending to be a pendant, heard his name and poked its head curiously.

Yonago blushed and said in a low voice, "Boss, you are joking, I am not worthy of the word 'tasting'."

Xuan Chu covered the head of the black cat with his backhand, rubbed it vigorously a few times, and said with a smile: "You are too modest. The smell of wine is also afraid of the deep alley, so if you show off, others will know that you have unique skills, so they dare not underestimate you." do you know?"

"I..." Yonago was taken aback by the words, not knowing how to answer.

Xuan Chu knew that her personality was like this, and didn't want to embarrass her, so he waved his hand: "Go and do your work first."

As if relieved, Yonago left in a hurry, not forgetting to lock the door behind her.

Xuan Chu shook his head, swiping his phone with one hand and stroking the cat with the other, he seemed to be talking to himself, and at the same time he seemed to be talking to the cat: "Xiaomi's drawing skills are really good, but his personality is a bit introverted, he doesn't know how to express himself, and hides everything It’s too real, it’s easy to lose money like this.”

Chang Xiao faintly felt that something was wrong, and wanted to slip away, but his body was held by Xuan Chu, unable to move.

Xuan Chu didn't seem to notice his struggle, and continued to speak slowly: "Because of shyness, Xiaomi encountered some troubles once before. She was thin-skinned and clumsy. She didn't know how to explain it. She was almost misunderstood as a thief."

The black cat hooked the tip of its tail, feeling a little anxious.

"Actually, it's a misunderstanding or something. It's fine if you open it. There is really no need to act like a deep hatred. Don't you think so, Daojun?"

Accompanied by the voice, Xuan Chu's eyes fell on Chang Xiao, still smiling, but in Chang Xiao's eyes, there was a deep meaning behind that smile.

"..." He looked around, pretending not to understand.

Xuan Chu was not annoyed either, he fixed the wobbly cat with one hand, scratched the cat's chin with the other, and said: "However, this is also Xiaomi's own choice. If she doesn't want to explode the horse, then I will respect her wish. This is Her own life, her own happiness is the most important thing."

Chang Xiao was taken aback, stopped moving, and stared at Xuan Chu with round eyes without blinking.

Xuan Chu looked at him with a smile, and put on a strange tone: "Are you hungry, let me cook a bowl of noodles for you?"

"..."

After a while, the black cat's lips moved, and a deep and magnetic human voice came out: "Who would give a cat to eat noodles?"

"Cats don't eat, but unicorns will always eat it." Xuan Chu looked unsurprised, "Although my cooking skills are not very good, I can still eat them. How about it, is Daoist interested in trying it?"

Chang Xiao couldn't help thinking of that bowl of fragrant and delicious chicken soup that day, and some suspicious liquid was uncontrollably secreted from his mouth.

"... Cough, let me go first."

Xuan Chu snapped his fingers, and smiled lightly: "As you wish."

The black cat that had regained its freedom rolled on the spot. In the golden light, the small cat's body was slowly stretched, and was finally replaced by a man with black hair and black clothes.

"How did you find out?" Facing Shang Xuanchu's smiling eyes, Chang Xiao unnaturally wiped the tip of his nose with the pulp of his thumb.

Xuan Chu shrugged: "I can't tell you all the details, I just feel weird. Daojun, your acting skills still need to be honed."

"..."

"However—" Facing Chang Xiao's dark complexion, Xuan Chu changed the subject, "There is something I haven't had time to tell you."

He didn't care about Changxiao's vigilant gaze, and said sincerely: "What I want to say is, Daojun, you who jumped into the river to chase the fishwife that night were really brave and handsome."

Chang Xiao's face turned from black to red, from red to deep red.

Although he was a bit narcissistic, he never expected Xuan Chu to say such a direct, even nasty compliment in person.

A little unaccustomed, a little shy, and a little secretly happy.

"A-Actually, you're not bad." He responded awkwardly and clumsily, "That Zhu Xi was so cunning back then—"

Oops, why did he take the initiative to bring this up?This is obviously the black history he wants to eliminate the most!

Xuan Chu pretended not to notice the changing situation on Chang Xiao's face, and still smiled and said: "Actually, I was very scared at the time, and even considered whether to write a suicide note. Fortunately, you subdued Zhu Xi in the end, otherwise I would definitely die .”

Listening to him talking about the most embarrassing experience in the happiest tone, Chang Xiao's tense nerves gradually relaxed.

He suddenly felt that the things he had been struggling with all this time seemed to be no big deal?

Xuan Chu patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, we live in the present and keep our eyes on the future. There is no need to pay too much attention to what has happened in the past, it will be very tiring."

He stretched out his palm: "Look forward, huh?"

Chang Xiao hesitated a little, then slowly stretched out his palm and pressed it against his.

"Okay." He heard his own voice, and his heart beating like a drum.

***

Knowing that the brown sugar was sent back to the countryside, the clerks were all disappointed. Fortunately, the New Year is coming, and the joy of the holiday has diluted the sense of loss.

The weather is getting colder and the festive atmosphere on the streets is getting stronger and stronger. The roadside trees are hung with red Chinese knots and small lanterns, shining brightly in the singing of "Congratulations on getting rich and congratulations on your wonderful life".

——It doesn't matter whether the taste is earthy or not, at least the festive atmosphere is in place.

As a nine-tailed fox, although Xuanchu has no concept of Chinese New Year, he still respects Tianhai's traditions, and specially brought a pot of kumquat trees into the store, which symbolizes good luck.

A few days before the Chinese New Year, it was the busiest time for fruit shops.Waves of people who come to buy New Year's goods rush, from daytime to nighttime.

To everyone's surprise, cousin Changxiao, who is said to have returned from a trip, changed his previous indifferent attitude and came to help.

After he joined, the sales in the store increased a lot, and many female customers went straight to him when they entered the store.

After discovering this, Xuanchu specially asked Changxiao to manage the newly established New Year's goods counter, euphemistically saying that only in this way can he be worthy of the status of Qilin Daojun.

Chang Xiao: "..."

Don't think that I don't know that this is just taking advantage of my beauty!

Xuanchu raised his hands: "So, please spread your charm to your heart's content, Daojun!"

Chang Xiao: "...Oh."

I have been busy until the night of the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. According to the regulations of legal holidays, it is time to have a holiday from tomorrow.

Before closing time, Xuan Chu sent everyone a thick red envelope.

"I won't say anything too sensational. All in all, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work this year. It is your hard work that has made Wonderful Fruit Store what it is today..."

Listening to Xuan Chu's true feelings, the emotional Yonago blushed immediately, and even big boys like Zhang Chao and Sun Lang sniffed.

"... In the coming year, let's create another glories!" Xuan Chu said with a smile.

"Create glory again!" The cheers soared to the sky, turning into bright stars, illuminating the world of lights.
