Xiao Mu took the dishes and chopsticks in Guo Yang's hand, washed them and put them back in the cabinet.

"Grandpa, you haven't paid me the money to buy dried rice. Xiao Mu stood at the door and shouted.

Zhang Laohan put down the pipe in his hand, went back to the room and took two yuan for Xiao Mu, handed it to Xiao Mu and said, "Come, give you two yuan, buy three bowls, and the remaining five cents will be regarded as errands." ”

When Xiao Mu heard that there was still an errand fee, he was ecstatic, jumping and jumping.

Stuffed the money into his pocket, walked to Guo Yang's side, patted Guo Yang on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, I've got it all done, master." ”

The two came to the street, but today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the street is obviously not as lively as yesterday, and it feels a little desolate.

"Hey, Xiao Mu, why are there so few people today?"

Xiao Mu didn't know why, so he spread out his hand and shook his head and said, "How do I know this?"

The two walked to the door of the store, sat down in chairs, chin propped up their hands, and stared at the sparsely populated street.

At this time, Wan Rong and a few young men from the village also came to the street, walked to the entrance of the commissary, held their coats in their hands and sighed, "Hey, why is there no one today, where have all the people gone?" ”

While wiping the dust on the products, the store owner smiled and said to Wan Vieng and his party: "There are not many people today, and many people have gone out to play." ”

Wan Vieng didn't know exactly where the boss said he was going out to play, so he climbed on the counter and asked the shop owner, "Boss, where do you say they played?"

The boss smiled: "Haha, I see that you only came back this year, I don't know, now many people are going to the reservoir or to Shuangximen to play, and some of them have gone to the street, and there are no people here." ”

Wan Rong paused, as if thinking about something.

"Oh!"

For a long time, no one spoke, they all stared at the desolate street, and the aunt who bought dried rice was not doing very well today, and the tables were empty.

One of the young men said to Wan Rong, "Wan Rong, why don't you go play too?"

Wan Rong thought about it, the reservoir and Shuangximen are dozens of kilometers away from here, and it takes half a day to walk, and there is nothing to play there, and there is no means of transportation, so he said: "Don't go, it's so far, and the people are scattered when they get there." ”

One of the young men shouted, "Well, it's not interesting to go, it's better to play cards here in the sun." ”

After speaking, he took out a black fur from his pocket and handed the shopkeeper a dollar, "Come boss, give me a deck of playing cards." ”

After taking the cards, Wan Rong and his party went to the street and squatted down, leaving Xiao Mu and Guo Yang sitting alone on the stool.

"Hey, Xiao Mu, why don't we go back to my house and watch TV, there's nothing fun here. ”

"Okay, okay!" Xiao Mu also agreed very quickly.

The two and the shopkeeper each bought a box of guns and returned to Guo Yang's house while playing.

Guo Yang's parents also went out to play, the door was closed, and the business was not done during the festival.

The two of them sat on the couch and watched TV.

Just as the two of them were fascinated, a few friends suddenly came.

"Guo Yang, didn't you go out to play?"

Guo Yang tilted his head sideways, looked at the friends and said, "I went, but I came back without anything fun." ”

One of the friends took out a deck of old playing cards, "Come on, come on, or let's play cards too." ”

Guo Yang was stunned for a moment, "Playing cards, gambling money? Then I won't play." ”

The man smiled and said, "No, no, no, don't gamble, drink water if you lose, one cup at a time." ”

Xiao Mu didn't speak the whole time, just quietly watched their every move, and for some reason, there was an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart.

Guo Yang also agreed to them, took a glass of about 500 ml, pointed and said: "Whoever loses will drink such a big cup, you can't cheat, drink it immediately if you lose." ”

The crowd applauded in approval.

"Xiao Mu, you can't play. ”

Xiao Mu was not very interested in playing cards in the first place, and he was afraid that Zhang Laohan would know and scold himself, so he smiled and refused and said: "No, no, I won't play, I'll help you pour water." ”

But how could the friends agree with Xiao Mu like this, so they got up and forcibly pulled Xiao Mu over, "Don't be so unsociable, everyone plays but you don't play, this can't be said, besides, just drink water, your grandfather won't say anything about you." ”

As a last resort, Xiao Mu agreed, and at first Xiao Mu didn't know how to play, so he said: "You play first, I'll see how you play, and I'll play with you when I learn it." ”

Everyone is also very enthusiastic, you and I guide Xiao Mu one by one, but Xiao Mu is still ignorant to listen, and he didn't understand very well, so he joined the army of playing cards in a daze.

After getting the shot, Xiao Mu kept letting Guo Yang staff the staff, and he didn't know whether his cards were big or small.

Seeing that Xiao Mu was a little struggling, the friends simply changed the rules, and directly compared the size after getting the cards, so it would be much better.

In the first few minutes, Xiao Mu's luck was good, he won every game, and basically didn't lose, but at the end of the game, Xiao Mu's luck was a mess, and he lost almost every game.

Xiao Mu couldn't stand it anymore, so he said, "Why don't we rest, I'm already drinking until I'm about to vomit, I can't stand it, you guys are too fierce." ”

As soon as Xiao Mu's words fell, a little friend got up and held on to the doorknob and ran out, supporting his knees with both hands, vomiting profusely.

The friends laughed at the man and said, "I've seen someone drink and vomit, but I haven't seen anyone drink water and vomit, I don't think you can do it, brother." ”

If you drink too much water, you will vomit, not only will you vomit when you drink alcohol, but it is also very uncomfortable to drink water.

After a long time, the little friend's eyes were full of tears and he slowly walked in.

I thought that the guy would say that he would stop playing, but he didn't, but he wanted to continue, maybe he couldn't hang his face.

One of the friends asked, "Are you sure you want to continue?" I'm afraid you're going to vomit again after a while. ”

"What are you afraid of, you haven't drunk to my level yet, what are you anxious about, come again!"

Xiao Mu touched his stomach and felt that he couldn't drink anymore, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

So I went out to see the height of the sun, and I felt that it was not too early, and I had to buy dried rice for Zhang Laohan, otherwise it would be troublesome for the aunt who would sell dried rice when she went home.

Turning back into the house, "Why don't we stop playing, it's almost time, and I need to go to the street to buy something." ”

looked at each other, no one spoke, Xiao Mu felt a little embarrassed.

At this time, Guo Yang spoke, "Let's go, let's go, put away the cards, drink so much water, it's okay to go out for a walk." ”

Guo Yang's move came in time, and it directly resolved Xiao Mu's embarrassment, so Xiao Mu pointed at Guo Yang and couldn't help laughing.
