Zhou Yuan's eyes widened and looked at everyone, and finally his gaze fell on Duan Yunfei: "Brother Yunfei, is it your treat?"

Duan Yunfei smiled: "It's okay if I have a treat, but I'm not a big boss!"

"Who is that?" Zhou Yuan was puzzled, the oldest person here was Duan Yunfei, who else could it be?

Xie Hui winked at Zhou Yuan, suggesting that she look at Luo Ning beside her. Zhou Yuan was stunned for a long time before she reacted: "Luo Ning, it's you?!Yes, you have more shares of Fangfang jewelry, but didn't all that money be taken away by your parents?"

Li Jun said: "She doesn't just earn a little bit of Fangfang jewelry. Right, Loning?"

Luo Ning smiled bitterly: "Don't expose my old background, I'll treat you, right? ”

Everyone cheered in unison, and Zhou Yuan asked stupidly: "Luo Ning, what income do you still have to hide from us?"

Luo Ning whispered: "It's really nothing, I'll tell you later." ”

Feng Rui was also full of questions, but he couldn't see it on his face, and only talked to everyone with a smile.

At the end of December, Luo Ning received a total of 1,725 yuan in dividends from Qingyou Music and Guangxun Education, and she finally had a little spare money in her hands. She didn't plan to spend it scrimsonly, so she went to the bank to open an account, and with the previous 300 yuan, she saved a total of 1,900 yuan. There are 125 odd flowers left.

This year's Spring Festival is around February 4, and the winter vacation class will only start for 15 days, so all registration fees will be halved. This made many budget-conscious parents ecstatic and seized the opportunity to sign up their children. Before the Spring Festival, from January 27th to 31st, there are only five days of classes. After class, Luo Ning and Luo Fan sent Bai Haohan back to his own house, and then the brother and sister happily went home for the New Year. In the past few days, they have taken time to go shopping on the street together, bought toys and new clothes for Bai Haohan as New Year's gifts, and Luo Ning bought some small gifts for her family, her schoolbag almost couldn't fit. Luo Fan bought two sets of new clothes for his grandfather, father and himself, as well as shoes and socks, and packed several large pockets.

A few years ago, Jiang Fenglian had to be on duty and couldn't go home, Luo Zhenying started buying New Year's goods a week ago, and every day when she came home from work, she had to buy some fruits and snacks to take home. Ye Qiuhua took advantage of the time to buy the market, Luo Ning hadn't gone to the market with his grandmother for a long time, so he followed his grandmother to play with high interest today.

The market in Huaiyang Town is very lively on weekdays, and it is even more crowded and noisy in the new year. When passing through the main street, seeing the crowds inside, Luo Ning thought happily: "Fortunately, I don't have to go there." ”

The market was next to the end of the main street, and Ye Qiuhua carried a basket on his back, pulling Luo Ning, and went directly around the market from the main road. As soon as he arrived outside the bazaar, Luo Ning regretted it. She had completely forgotten how cramped and crowded the bazaars were in those days, and the smell of all kinds of poultry and fresh food. Ye Qiuhua separated the people in front of him with one hand, and pulled Luo Ning into the pile.

She has a lot of things to buy today: chicken, duck, fish, vegetables, spices, oil, flour, as well as New Year paintings, couplets, lanterns, firecrackers, and so on.

After wandering around the vegetable market for more than two hours, it took all the meat and vegetables to buy, and the seasonings were bought in the store outside the vegetable market, and finally squeezed out of the crowd, Luo Ning took a deep breath of fresh air, she was really about to suffocate to death! She was about 1.4 meters tall and couldn't see anything in the crowd, and from time to time she was attacked by poisonous gas, and she was always worried about being separated from her grandmother, which was really painful.

The street is a little better, at least you can see the sky! Ye Qiuhua went to the shop where he often buys things and bought all the spices, flour, and oil he wanted to buy, and finally went to buy New Year's paintings.

The place to buy New Year's pictures is on the main street, Luo Ning passed by the place where Lin Fang used to set up a stall, and found that it had been occupied, and the stalls sold toys such as plastic water guns. But the jewelry store next to it is still there.

After buying everything, it was already past twelve o'clock, Ye Qiuhua asked Luo Ning: "Xiao Ning, are you hungry?" Do you want to eat something?"

Luo Ning smiled and said: "Grandma, I want to eat steamed dumplings and tofu brain!" The tofu brain in Huaiyang Town is the most famous in the entire Longshan County.

China has a vast land and vast resources, and there are different winds and customs for 100 miles! It is only more than 200 kilometers from Longshan County to the provincial capital, and the practice of this dumpling is very different. There are various ways to wrap dumplings in provincial towns, and one thing in common is that the dumpling skin is very thick. The steamed dumplings in Longshan County have a particularly thin skin, so you should be especially careful when wrapping them. After steaming, the dumpling skin becomes transparent, the dumpling filling is clearly visible, and it tastes very chewy, just dip a little chili oil to taste good enough.

The tofu brain in Huaiyang Town is a special flavor. The tofu brain in Shun'an City is also famous, but Luo Ning doesn't like the practice of adding fans to the tofu brain. She prefers Huaiyang Town's approach: soy sauce, chili oil, pepper noodles, pepper noodles, salt, monosodium glutamate and other seasonings are added to the tofu brain, and then crispy peanuts, crispy peas, crispy meat, steamed beef, steamed buns, kohlrabi residue, etc., crispy enough, and can be eaten with a cake. The cake is similar to a meat bun, the cake is not very large, and you can choose to sandwich kohlrabi or steamed beef, or both. Luo Ning doesn't like the cake very much, she prefers to eat steamed dumplings with tofu brain.

Ye Qiuhua took her to an old street, which looked very old, full of that kind of wooden buildings, and some of them were already crooked. They came to the most famous time-honored store, which was full of people inside and out, but fortunately, someone left soon after eating, Ye Qiuhua immediately occupied the seat, and then asked Luo Ning to tell the boss what he wanted.

There are only three people in the store to take care of it, but everyone moves very quickly. I just ordered something, and the steamed dumplings were served directly, and the tofu brain was served in only two minutes.

Luo Ning's tofu brain was filled with chili oil, and Ye Qiuhua was very surprised when he saw it: "Oh, Xiao Ning, is the boss serving it wrong? Why do you have chili oil in that bowl? Tell the boss to change it for you." ”

Luo Ning smiled and said, "Grandma, it's okay." I want to try something spicy. ”

Ye Qiuhua said worriedly: "You haven't eaten any chili peppers since you were a child, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it." You taste it first, and if you can't eat it, change the bowl. ”

Luo Ning stirred the tofu brain with a spoon, and then scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth: it was slightly spicy, and with the fragrant and crispy ingredients, it was really delicious! Luo Ning missed this taste so much! Every time I came to the market before, I was in a hurry, and I never had a chance to eat it. This time, I finally got my wish!

"Xiao Ning, how is it?Is it spicy?Do you want to change to a bowl of non-spicy?" Ye Qiuhua closed her eyes when she saw Luo Ning take a bite, thinking that she was spicy, and asked with concern.

Luo Ning opened his eyes with a smile and said, "Grandma, I'm fine, this chili oil is not spicy at all, it's still very fragrant, it's delicious!"

"Well, if it's delicious, eat more!" Ye Qiuhua was relieved and ate it himself.

The grandparents and grandchildren ate three baskets of steamed dumplings and two bowls of tofu brain, and went home with a large basket of things on their backs.
