Chapter Ninety-Seven: Tai Tin Street (Part II)
"Hey, don't get excited, don't get excited, it's like you're eating it for the first time. ”
Xiao Mu's mind is full of question marks, isn't it the first time I've eaten it?
After sucking and eating for a long time, I finally finished eating, and all that was left in the bowl was the soup, which was a little black, but the soup was not only soup, but there were also a lot of meat sauce, chopped green onions, peanuts, etc., which was very hearty.
Xiao Mu didn't waste the soup, but drank it all at once, licked it around his mouth, looked at Guo Yang, who had poured out the soup, and said, "Guo Yang, why did you pour such a delicious soup, it's such a waste!"
Guo Yang pointed to the soup on the ground and said, "Look at it, there is so much soy sauce in this soup, what do you tell me to drink?"
At this time, a big man on the side lifted most of the bowl of soup and drank it, and after drinking, he looked very satisfied.
The two were dumbfounded, patted Guo Yang on the shoulder and said, "Look, isn't anyone drinking this?"
His eyes never left this big man, and Guo Yang couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Amazing, talent." ”
Putting the bowl in a large basin full of water, the husband of the aunt who sold dried rice happened to be washing the dishes, so he said, "Uncle, your cold dried rice is so delicious, it is simply a delicacy in the world." ”
The uncle smiled and said, "That's a must, we can't get along with the taste, just eat two more bowls of stuffed stuffed if it's delicious." ”
Xiao Mu immediately waved his hand, indicating that he had eaten too much, although it was delicious, there was still a little less of what this little belly could hold.
Holding hands in my arms, I walked around the street, facing the warm sun, as if everyone was very comfortable.
There are pairs of dates, there are many young men and women eyebrows, and some people buy a bunch of snacks to sit around the grass, enjoying the food and the warm sun.
Most of the men are playing cards, and playing cards is also an indispensable entertainment for the New Year, and the way to play cards and the punishment after losing cards are also different.
Some lose drinking, some drink water, some are punished for squatting, and more are gambling money, although they are all petty fights, and the games are dozens of dollars, but sometimes there are still two people who earn red faces because of a few dollars, and they can't get along.
Xiao Mu and Guo Yang also found an open space to lie down, and there was a shouting in their ears, "Let's go, let's go to the city to play." ”
Going into the city to play is also an indispensable way for young men and women to entertain, and a few go to the city every year to play, after all, they can't go into the city several times a year, and some old people have never been in the city in their lives.
Someone couldn't help but joke: "Oh, I'm going to the city to see other people's little beauties again." ”
At that time, Xiao Mu didn't understand it, and it wasn't until later that he slowly understood.
There were also many young men walking together, discussing which village had a beautiful little girl, and the girls from the neighboring village had always been thinking about how to ask the girls from the neighboring village out to play.
Because the local customs were not very good at that time, there was often news that someone in a certain village was fighting with someone else for a girl in a certain village, and people at that time were not very open-minded, and a large part of the girls either stayed with their mothers or stayed at home during the New Year.
Occasionally, you can see a few middle-aged men who are drunk, and this is what Xiao Mu is most afraid of.
Because drunk people have no self-control, they will scold and even fight when they say the slightest wrong thing, and Xiao Mu avoids this kind of person.
After walking on the grass for a long time, feeling that the sun was not so warm, but a little sunny, the two got up and came to the locust tree.
At this time, a few friends of the same age as themselves came, who were from the same village, and held a deck of playing cards that had not yet been opened, and whispered to the ears of the two: "Let's go, let's play cards." ”
Xiao Mu refused, because in the entire village, no parent allowed his children to play poker, let alone Xiao Mu, if Zhang Laohan or Wan Rong, as long as he knew that Xiao Mu was playing cards, he had to beat himself to death.
"No, no, no, no, I can't play, I'll be cleaned up. ”
And Guo Yang on the side didn't stick to his thoughts, and was moved by a few friends, but Xiao Mu could only join the ranks.
In order to avoid being discovered by the adults, the group came to the grass on the side of the street, which was so dense with weeds that no one could find it at all.
A few people leveled a piece of grass and began to discuss playing like this, and after setting the rules, they said to Xiao Mu: "Xiao Mu, what about you, do you want to play." ”
Xiao Mu shook his head and said, "I don't play, I don't have any money." ”
One of them said: "Oh, I didn't give you pocket money for the New Year, and we don't play so big like adults, we only play with a dime." ”
Xiao Mu still didn't say anything, first of all, he really didn't have any money, and secondly, if his family knew about it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
One of the brothers is a relative of Xiao Mu's family, and seeing that Xiao Mu was forced to get off the stage, he said: "Forget it, if he doesn't play, let it release the wind plug, isn't it good, otherwise they will all be too fascinated by playing, and adults won't know when they come." ”
Xiao Mu escaped the catastrophe, breathed a sigh of relief, and watched them play while letting the wind go, carrying the banner of "protecting" their friends.
After most of the day, the friends played more and more energetically, and the sound became louder and louder, Xiao Mu told them to keep their voices low from time to time, so as not to be heard by the adults on the street.
The friends also have a set of cards to play, learn to look like adults, learn to speak as adults, and from time to time they also burst into foul language.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man appeared in Xiao Mu's sight, he was so frightened that he paused for a while, and reached out to pull the corner of Guo Yang's clothes, but Guo Yang didn't react.
So he turned around and said, "Hurry up, put the money away, there's an adult coming, and if you don't put it away, you have to finish playing." ”
The friends were in a hurry, put the money away with lightning speed, and pretended to be just playing poker.
The man came behind him and stared at the good companion, and the friends naturally pretended not to see it and continued to play cards.
"What are you doing here?" the man's tone was very stern, and Xiao Mu was a little frightened.
Guys, this is it
Turning his head to look at the adult, he smiled and said, "Hey, hey, it's nothing, just play poker." ”
The man walked over, walked around, took a lot of time, and said slowly: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, boys, don't think I don't know." ”
Xiao Mu's palms broke out in a cold sweat, the first time he was caught playing cards with an adult behind his back, he was just a sentry, if this was known by the family, how to explain it.
Suddenly, the man grabbed the ear of one of the friends and said, "Go, come home with me, and see how I clean you up." ”
Then he pointed to his friends and said viciously: "You are the same, even if you take him badly, none of them can escape." ”
At this time, Xiao Mu was even more frightened, and he didn't know how to deal with it when he went back.
