Chapter 2010
Xu's mother grabbed Zhou Ping and said, "Thank you, Xiao Zhou. Otherwise, I would be unlucky."
If Zhou Ping hadn't been quick-sighted and pulled her aside in time, the hot water would have been poured on her. Xu's mother was really grateful to Zhou Ping at this time.
Wen Xiaoyun on the side clenched her hands tightly and gritted her teeth. What she had arranged was actually snatched away by Zhou Ping...
However, it was too late to get angry now. Wen Xiaoyun glanced at the waiter who was moaning in pain and hurriedly helped her. Then, she quietly picked up the pine nuts and held them in her hand without anyone noticing, so as not to be discovered.
Wen Xiaoyun asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
The waiter quickly said: "It's okay, it's okay...thank you..."
The waiter's knee was bruised and the hot water in the kettle was spilled all over the floor, but fortunately no one was hurt.
She quickly apologized to Xu's mother: "Old lady, are you okay? I just apologized, I'm sorry, I didn't know what I stepped on, and it slipped all of a sudden. I'm really sorry. I'll be careful next time."
Fortunately, no one was hurt. If it was, then... not only would she not be able to keep her job, but she would also have to pay for it.
Xu's mother is getting older, and her heart couldn't stand the moment just now, but she is not a fussy person. Although she was quite frightened just now, she didn't intend to really fuss with the other person.
Xu's mother said: "Be careful next time. That is scalding water. If you really burn someone, you will be unlucky, and so will the other person."
The waiter nodded: "Yes, yes, you are right. I will definitely be careful in the future..."
If Xu's mother cares about it, if she goes directly to their boss and makes a scene, their boss will fire her.
Xu's mother saw the injury on her knee and said, "Forget it, it's not easy for you either. You should take care of the injury on your knee as soon as possible."
"Thank you, old lady, thank you..."
Before leaving, the waiter thanked Wen Xiaoyun again, then hurriedly went to get a mop, mopped the water off the floor, and made another pot of hot water to add water to Xu's mother and the others...
Zhou Ping comforted Xu's mother for a while, and then suddenly said: "Just now, the waiter said that she slipped on something under her feet, but I looked at the ground and it was very clean..."
Wen Xiaoyun peeled another pine nut, pushed a small plate of peeled pine nuts in front of Xu's mother, and then replied unhurriedly: "Maybe the waiter wants to shirk responsibility. After all, this is not their fault." A slip is an accident.”
Zhou Ping looked at Wen Xiaoyun, her smile deepened...
Said: "That's right."
Wen Xiaoyun was flustered by Zhou Ping's look. She always felt that the other party could see through people's hearts and seemed to know that she had done everything...
Zhou Ping occasionally asked Wen Xiaoyun for a few words, seemingly casually, but it made Wen Xiaoyun feel very uncomfortable.
Wen Xiaoyun finally couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and said, "Auntie and uncle, I'm a little bored. Can I go out and get some fresh air?"
Xu’s mother: “Go…”
"I'll be back soon." Wen Xiaoyun said and left.
This teahouse is in a good location, right next to the lake, with a long verandah where people can sit and rest...
It was cloudy and rainy today, there were very few people on the verandah, and the wind from the lake blew in waves of rain and mist.
