”Show me your ID!”
Qi Miao pondered for a few seconds, then said helplessly, ”I escaped in a hurry, and didn't bring anything!”
The owner's handsome sword-like eyebrows twitched unnoticeably. Qi Miao was sensitive enough to ask if a social security card was okay, there were also photos on the back with identification numbers, but on second thought, she felt that it wasn't right.
Now that the internet was so developed, if they found out about her scandal, she would lose face. She would probably be seen by those people with tinted glasses, and they would definitely not be willing to work for her.
”You said you escaped the marriage?”
”Yes sir!” Qi Miao nodded.
”Since you plan to run away, you should at least bring your ID?” ”You can't not understand the principle of going out and doing nothing without your documents, can you?”
Qi Miao nodded again, she knew that she didn't believe her.
”This marriage of mine came a little too suddenly, and caught me off guard!”
”My mother died in an accident when I was still in elementary school and my father was going to be a vegetable. I was brought up by Uncle and Aunt! ”
”My uncle was going to marry my cousin, but my sister didn't like the man, and wouldn't marry him no matter what. I overheard my aunt and uncle say that I would marry that man in place of my sister! ”
”Of course I don't want to, so I took advantage of the fact that my family members weren't paying attention and ran out early in the morning. I didn't prepare any luggage, so I kept my ID card with my aunty. How could I dare to ask for it?”
Although her words were mixed with water, but she had helped Qi Ji get married before. When she thought of it, the sorrow on her face was not an act.
The Lady Boss was moved, ”Big Brother Feng, let us keep her!”
It was unknown if the boss was moved by the words of sympathy, or if he was willing to listen to the words of the old grandma as he nodded.
”You can stay!”
After that, the Lady Boss reported the salary. It was indeed not much. But Qi Miao did not mind how much money it was.
”What's your name?” The Lady Boss blinked her watery eyes and asked Qi Miao smilingly.
”Qi, my surname is Qi, my name is Qi …” They almost blurted out the two words ”Qi Miao”. Fortunately, their reactions were considered timely, so the moment they said ”Qi Miao”, they immediately shut their mouths.
The old lady sweetly smiled, and called him Qiqi, ”My name is Xu You,” she pointed towards outside of the shop, ”The signboard of the Eternal Mask Restaurant is my name.”
His face was filled with happiness.
”Just call him,” He pointed at his husband, ”Big Brother Feng will do.”
Qi Miao's living quarters could be considered safe, but the kind Xu You did not really let her use a stool to make up for it in the shop. Instead, she made her pack out the small warehouse for her husband to use to store miscellaneous items.
She said, ”Qiqi is a girl after all, so it's more convenient to have her own space!”
The owner Ah Feng was definitely a wife's slave, so no matter what the wife said, he would immediately carry it out.
Qi Miao stood at the side, her eyes filled with envy and admiration.
The couple's lives were the kind of life that she had always dreamed of. They were ordinary and plain, with lard in their eyes. However, when they looked at each other, their eyes were filled with love.
They may not be rich, and they must have been hard at work, but they filled this small noodle shop with warmth, like a family.
As dinner approached, more and more customers came to eat.
Qi Miao was a diligent person, she took the initiative to put on the role of a waiter without Xu You even asking him to.
A young man in his twenties led a little boy of six or seven into the shop.
Qi Miao quickly ran over to greet him. The young lad was startled: ”New?”
