Chapter 224 The store takes on a new look
Shen You didn't hand it over, "You'd better not do anything, the injury hasn't healed yet."
Under the rules of the plane, his injuries will not recover faster than ordinary people.
"You don't have to use your left hand." Wen Zhi smiled and picked up the spare shovel she put aside.
"Then dig gently, don't damage the valuable things." Shen You saw that his injury was indeed not bleeding much, and felt relieved.
Clearing the snow was okay. Due to the weather, the snow here is relatively soft. When you shovel the gravel and soil below, you can see the artificially laid stone slabs on the ancient road.
After so many years, the mountain has changed, and even the stone slabs will break and shift.
Shen You had eaten a lot during this period, and she thought she was working out. Not long after that, the alarm clock she had set rang.
Shen You called Wen Zhi home, took off his down jacket, and sent a message. Looking at Wen Zhi's ancient costume, Shen You quickly asked him to go upstairs first.
The people who came to give New Year gifts were almost at the door.
Wait for her to temporarily close the entrance to Daqi, and then open the door to the present world.
The black car stopped slowly, and it was Wu Zhiyuan who came.
First there was some exchange of business compliments and greetings.
"Boss Shen, I haven't seen you for a while and you look beautiful again. Why are you sweating profusely in this winter?"
Shen You looked at the other party's confused eyes, then looked down at the home clothes he was wearing and said, "I'm doing some general cleaning at home. Things haven't been put away and it's a bit messy. Don't mind."
"No way. If you pack up anything you don't want, you can give it to me. I've been staring at it for a long time."
He said half-jokingly and asked the driver to help move the box in the back.
When I opened it, I saw that it was seafood. It looked like the quality was very good. It was still alive, not the frozen stuff online.
King crab, Eastern star spot, and several types of shrimp.
Shen You poured him the best tea in the store, "This gift is too heavy."
Jiangcheng is not a coastal city, and live wild seafood is not cheap and difficult to buy. It is basically shipped here by air.
"A friend of mine is in the seafood business and brought some goods over during the Chinese New Year." Wu Zhiyuan sipped his tea and put down his cup, "It's just in time for the New Year's Eve dinner."
Every family attaches great importance to the New Year's Eve dinner, especially these not-so-expensive rituals and full of atmosphere, so they must have good things.
I came to deliver it in person, something that is difficult to buy, and I am very sincere.
Afterwards, they chatted about Jiang He's spring auction next year. Wu Zhiyuan saw two sculptures that Shen You wanted to borrow, as well as the bronze mirror she collected. He said it was a good thing. The last time he saw it, it was in a museum or at an overseas auction. .
The one at the auction was incomparable to hers.
When he saw the golden jade plate that Shen You had just taken out and placed on the table, he took a deep breath.
"Do you want this disk?"
"I like this one very much. I thought I would use it to decorate it with candies during the Chinese New Year."
After hearing what Shen You said, he noticed a supermarket plastic bag on the shelf next to him.
Boss Shen is really willing to use it. She uses such an exquisite thing to hold candy? ? ?
It was placed in his home and once it was framed in a display cabinet, he had to wear gloves to touch it.
Wu Zhiyuan said that he still had something to do, and soon said goodbye to Shen You, saying that he would not delay her in decorating the shop and would visit again after the new year.
He wanted to ask Shen You for help with something. It shouldn't be difficult for Shen You, but tomorrow was New Year's Eve, so he definitely wouldn't ask at this time.
After Wu Zhiyuan left, Shen You and Wen Zhi moved the boxes of seafood to the second floor. "It looks delicious!" She nodded and closed the lid.
This kind of weather should be fine until tomorrow.
Next came the busy arrangement. Shen You cut the plum blossom branches with buds that she picked from the creek garden yesterday to the appropriate length and put them into clay pots.
It has such beautiful branches and lots of flowers. I will go to the flower and bird market to buy it during the Chinese New Year, and it will cost one or two hundred.
There are also some Chinese-style flowers that have been delivered by express delivery, but they have not yet been trimmed and put into vases.
During the Chinese New Year, it is suitable to put some fresh flowers and trees in the house. When the weather is hot, Shen You will not put real flowers anymore, which may attract small flying insects.
When it comes to buying flowers, she has been tricked before. When she asked to buy fresh branches, the seller just sent her a bundle of firewood, but the variety was wrong!
If she wasn't a florist, she would have recognized it, and she must have been deceived.
Shen You sent a message to ask at that time, but the customer service refused to admit that the product was wrong, but agreed to return the product.
You need to be careful when buying flowers online, as fakes are everywhere these days.
Wen Zhi sat at the tea table, polished the Hui ink, and paused in his hand holding the Langhao pen, "Are you sure you want to write something to be successful in the new year?"
Does it sound like a serious couplet?
"Actually, I found someone with a lot of money. Well, it's better to be rich and rich." Shen You said seriously.
"Okay, what font should I use this time?" Wen Zhiyan looked at her with a smile.
Shen You: "It's still Xiaozhuan. We'll change it to another one next year."
Hearing her talk about the next year, Wen Zhi responded, with a bit of expectation in his eyes under his trembling eyelashes.
The red paper Shen You bought had gold patterns on it. It looked very rich and noble, and paired with the simple small seal script, it felt pretty good.
All the vases placed were replaced with the latest flower materials, the window decorations were decorated with cultural creations from the library, and serious ancient exquisite lanterns were hung.
Shen You deliberately kept the rolling lantern and did not replace the electronic candle. She had not played with it before, and it could rotate 360 degrees. Changing it with the electronic candle felt a little less interesting.
The thing looked simple, but it took a whole morning to do it inside and out.
Shen You also tidied up the book shelf and changed a few things. After looking at the same furnishings for a long time, she always wanted to throw them away.
"Is the lantern right?" Wen Zhi asked while standing on the household ladder.
Shen You was responsible for standing below, chewing on the egg yolk cake to check the angle, "More to the left, just a little bit, that's it!"
The two of them, one wearing a high ponytail and the other wearing modern home clothes, with wooden hairpins on their heads, appear in the same picture. Not only are they not abrupt or strange, but they are very harmonious.
With the cooperation of the two of them, the shop has a completely new feel, full of lively and warm New Year atmosphere.
Finally, I packed away the sundries and packaging bags on the tea table, and put sugar on the gold and sapphire plate.
Putting the colorful packaging in it makes it look unsightly.
Shen You thought for a while, then poured the sugar into the large lacquer box and put it with the nuts. Then he picked up the Chinese pastries in the box and put them on the plate to compare. This was the next step.
Do this for now and put the pastries on tomorrow morning. They will get dirty easily if left outside for a long time.
After finishing everything, we went upstairs to have lunch, a simple meal of cabbage and tofu soup, stir-fried beef, and steamed shrimp.
However, Shen You felt that it was the happiest meal during this period. She could look at the scenery outside the window at home, wearing loose and comfortable clothes, and sitting opposite the only employee in the shop, who also voluntarily signed a permanent contract.
The key is to look good.
Having money, leisure, three meals a day and being able to do what she likes is the life she wants.
For Wen Zhi, he still wanted to see Shen You in the lonely and cold Northland, sit and eat with her, and wait for the New Year.
