Chapter 48: The First Stall
Near noon, Xu Tongdao borrowed a vice and a mace from the landlord, Uncle Li, and beat the old iron sheets he had picked up from the scrapyard in the yard, and Xu Tonglin used a coal stove to cook noodles in the house.
Xu Tongdao's banging and banging here attracted the little boy he saw yesterday.
The little boy was still holding the iron ring in his hand, and he came over to look at it curiously for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Big brother, what are you doing?"
"Guess!"
Xu Tongdao teased him with a smile, and the work on his hands did not stop.
Little boy: "Are you making airplanes?"
Xu Tongdao chuckled, "How did you guess?"
The little boy's eyes lit up, "Are you really making airplanes? How do you do it? Can you teach me?"
"Providence!!!"
The little boy's mother shouted again like yesterday, and Xu Tongdao turned his face to look at her, noticing that she was looking at him a little vigilantly, and frowned slightly.
Xu Tongdao was not angry, his mother wanted to protect her child, he could understand.
He just wondered if he really didn't look like a good person, and why did this woman call her child back every time she saw her child come to play in front of him?
The little boy grimaced and walked away step by step.
When the little boy returned to the woman, Xu Tongdao faintly heard the woman's whispered warning: "Providence! What did Mom tell you yesterday? Tell you not to play with these messy people, why are you disobedient? Are you swollen with blood and want me to loosen up for you?"
Get!
It turns out that in her eyes, I, Xu Tongdao, am a messy person......
Xu Tongdao laughed at himself, lowered his head and continued to make the oven.
It didn't take long for Xu Tonglin to come out of the house, "Xiaodao, the noodles are cooked, come and eat them! ”
"Hey!"
Xu Tongdao responded, got up and walked to the faucet to wash his hands, went back to the house to get a bowl of noodles, and the two of them ate a bowl of Yangchun noodles with clear soup and little water with hot sauce, and there was still some left in the pot.
Xu Tongdao took a clean bowl again, and Xu Tonglin, who was about to wash the dishes, saw it, frowned and asked, "Xiaodao, are you going to send it to that person again?"
"Since you saved people, don't give up halfway, anyway, it's just a little boiled noodles, worthless things, you don't care! ”
Xu Tongdao said, holding the noodles that had just been served, leaving the room and walking to the easternmost room.
"Knock knock!"
Walking outside the door, he knocked on the door, but no one answered in the room, Xu Tongdao frowned slightly, knocked again, and there was still no one inside.
So, he pushed the door straight in, and as soon as the door opened, he saw that the man in black was still lying on the bed, but his eyes were closed, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and his face was pale, as if he was asleep.
Xu Tongdao casually covered the door and walked over quickly.
"Huh?"
Walking to the side of the bed, he shouted a few times, and even reached out and pushed the man on the bed, before the other party opened his eyes in a daze.
It could be seen that this man was even weaker than last night, and his eyes were full of weakness.
Seeing Xu Tongdao, this person barely squeezed out a smile, and said weakly: "Little brother, are you here?"
Seeing that he was in such a bad state, Xu Tongdao frowned, reached out and touched the other party's forehead, it was very hot, this is a fever......
"Your wound should be inflamed, you have a high fever, or I'll take you to the hospital, right?"
Before Xu Tongdao's words fell, the man in black on the bed reluctantly smiled and shook his head, "No, no, I can't go to the hospital, I have anti-inflammatory drugs and antipyretics in my medicine box...... Could you please feed me a little...... Thank you...... Hehe. ”
He was still in the mood to laugh.
Xu Tongdao looked at him fixedly for a few seconds, nodded, and got up to help him find medicine.
There was no boiling water in this room, so Xu Tongdao simply fed him medicine with noodle soup, and when he fed the medicine, he asked casually: "By the way, do you have any relatives and friends nearby? Do you want me to help you notify them to take care of you for a few days? After all, I have my own business every day, I'm afraid I can't take care of you." ”
The man in black smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No, no, you're busy with you, don't worry about me, just send me something to eat every day, and when I'm well, I'll definitely repay your ......."
Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, nodded slightly, and asked casually: "By the way, what do you call it?"
The man who swallowed the medicine also smiled and said weakly: "Everyone calls me Qingzi, you can call me that too!"
After a pause, he also asked casually: "By the way, what is your name, little brother?"
Xu Tongdao took the chopsticks and began to feed him noodles, and said lightly while feeding: "When you're ready, I'll tell you again! ”
If this person can't be saved, then it doesn't make sense to tell him his name.
If he is saved, if this person's enemy is too strong, then telling the other party his name now will only cause trouble for himself.
Therefore, Xu Tongdao's mind turned, and he did not report his name.
Although he knew that if there was really trouble, it would be useless to hide his name, but he still subconsciously kept a hand.
Qingzi glanced at him meaningfully, smiled weakly, and didn't ask any more questions.
......
In the evening, Xu Tongdao went to send Qingzi a bowl of Yangchun noodles again, and tested the temperature of Qingzi's forehead, feeling that the other party's body temperature was not as high as at noon, but he was still in a state of fever.
Xu Tongdao fed Qingzi anti-inflammatory drugs and antipyretics.
After the incident, he and Xu Tonglin moved all the things that were going to be set up on the tricycle, and the money on him was almost spent, if he couldn't make money by going out to set up a stall in the past two days, I am afraid that he and Xu Tonglin would soon not even be able to eat Yangchun noodles.
Moreover, it is already the end of July in the solar calendar, and the temperature is high, so I am afraid that the meat such as mutton that cannot be sold will stink the next day.
So, if he doesn't have pressure in his heart, it's impossible.
But pressure is pressure, and his expression is still very calm.
There is a kind of dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the two pushed a broken tricycle full of things through the alley, crossed the road, and came to the side of the river.
There are already more than a dozen stalls in this area.
Including the three barbecue stalls that Xu Tongdao and they came to investigate last night.
And these stall people, when they saw their two half-sized men pushing broken tricycles to set up stalls here, they were also sideways.
There were also people who looked at them and whispered and laughed.
Without hearing what they were saying, Xu Tongdao could guess that these people must be watching their jokes.
Indeed, he and Xu Tonglin's two childish faces that have not retreated look like they can do business.
Moreover, they brought the oven on the car...... It does look a little unpresentable, no matter how you look at it, it looks like two young people came here on a whim to join in the fun.
Xu Tonglin's face was already red from embarrassment, but Xu Tongdao was very calm, pushed the car to a place where there was no one, and beckoned Xu Tonglin to move things down from the car.
Oven, folding table, plastic stool, assorted ingredients, and two cases of beer.
and their nearest barbecue stand...... It's the bald stall.
When the bald head saw that Xu Tongdao's oven didn't even have a shelf, and was directly placed on the road, the bald head couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.
