Chapter 52: Funny Girl
Shu Shu's chest was inexplicably unconvinced, she looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "How do you know that I can't do it before you try?" Although I am a woman, I don't think I have to be a man! Don't underestimate people's ......."
When she said this, Shu Xian next to her pulled her arm fiercely, but it was too late, and the words had already been spoken. Even Shu Shu himself regretted it a little. She shouldn't have said it so impulsively, but now that she has said everything, there is nothing to regret, she stubbornly held her head high and looked righteous and awe-inspiring.
The more she is like this, the more interested the people next to her become, and the iron shop under the sun is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. Even now, Shu Shu has no place to run if he wants to run away now.
Shu Xian's face became redder and redder, and she lowered her head very shyly. Never before had there been so many people watching them, and now she felt like she didn't know where to put her hands.
The shopkeeper of the iron shop likes to joke with people on weekdays, and he likes to tease children when he is free. Looking at Shu Shu's serious face, the other little girl next to her blushed. He suddenly came interested and said with a smile: "Little girl, you see that there are so many people gathered in front of our store now, I must be a good talker, if you can really take this hammer to the wheel now, and smash my wooden pier back and forth ten times, even if you are good, how about not only caring about you eating at noon?"
Hearing that Shu Shu was eating, she immediately became excited, and she thought to herself that she could change food with ten strokes of a hammer. That's good, of course. She immediately replied, "Okay, that's it." You can't go back! So many people are watching. And I don't want roast chicken, can I ask for a few steamed buns?"
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Okay, you can do whatever you want." ”
It's boring and tight in this street market on weekdays, and it's rare to have such a fun little girl. More and more people gathered outside the blacksmith's shop, and the people talked about it.
"This blacksmith's hammer is not something that ordinary people can smash, you don't know that this guy, our son is in his twenties, and he can't even pick it up......"
"Who's to say it's not, not to mention that it's good for this little girl to be able to lift it up ten times......"
"This girl is going to make a fool of herself, and I don't know whose girl is going to be ugly in public, I'm afraid it will be difficult to marry after making a fool of herself......"
"Even if you bring it up, I'm afraid no man from any family will dare to ......marry such a fierce girl after smashing it ten times."
The chatter ran into Shu Shu's ears, and her face flushed. She never thought that just wanting to find a job would provoke so many people, and she would be talked about, and she felt ashamed for the first time.
The shopkeeper blushed when he saw her, sighed and said, "Okay, let's all disperse, it's just a little girl's joke...... Have fun with everyone......"
Shu Shu suddenly walked to the side of the big hammer and said very seriously: "Who said it was a joke, I said that I could smash ten times!"
The people who were about to leave turned their heads one after another, watching the stubborn girl intently as she picked up the hammer in her hand.
There was a sudden silence around them, some people didn't pay attention to it, some people couldn't take their eyes off it, but everyone's eyes were on Shu Shu's arm.
Her fingers clutched the stick about the thickness of her palm. Suddenly, the sledgehammer was lifted up. Shu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the appearance of these people, she thought that this sledgehammer was very heavy, but now that she picked it up, she realized that it was not so heavy.
In full view of everyone, Shu Shu took the huge sledgehammer and smashed it into the stake, and ...... Then it touched everyone's hearts, and the expressions on everyone's faces were very surprised, no one thought that such a thin little girl would pick up such a big hammer so easily, and smash it so easily.
All the people couldn't help but shout along with the rhythm: "Five, four, three, two, one!" Ten strokes, not a lot. The shopkeeper clapped his palms and smiled at this stubborn and powerful girl. The surrounding people also applauded, and a few young men with good things shouted at the shopkeeper: "Sledgehammer, you are planted today! Why don't you hurry up and buy buns for this girl?"
"I've got buns here!Haha, come on, sledgehammer to make you cheaper...... This girl is really powerful, I'm afraid I won't be able to produce one in hundreds of years, and I am considered to have long eyes today......"
The people living next to the iron shop are very aware of the person of the sledgehammer, he is a warm-hearted person on weekdays, and he must have thought it was funny to meet this girl today, and everyone joked with him.
I saw the shopkeeper wave his hand and said loudly: "Baozi, give this girl a few baskets of steamed buns, you can give as much as she wants, and my brother will settle the bill for you when he is busy later!"
The man named Baozi immediately shouted, "Good class!"
Shu Zhu's face blushed and looked at the shopkeeper, and he said a little embarrassed: "Then thank you......"
A blue-roofed carriage pulled by two white horses stopped not far away, and a handsome young man poked his head out of the window to look at the lively scene here, and couldn't help asking, "Go and ask what's going on in front of you so lively." ”
Sitting on the carriage was a boy who looked to be in his teens, he jumped out of the carriage and walked over, and when he asked, his eyes lit up when he heard what had just happened.
He trotted to the side of the carriage and said, "Young master, there is a funny thing today, a teenage girl can carry the hammer of that big hammer, and she has won a lot of buns...... Haha you said it's fun, it's a pity that we missed it, but that girl is still waiting over there to get the buns, do you want to ......"
The boy immediately jumped out of the carriage and said, "Of course such a fun girl wants to see it...... Let's take a look. ”
A middle-aged man standing on the other side of the carriage said with a serious expression, "Young Master...... You better hurry back to the house, Madame came back from the Spirit Realm today, and we will all be unlucky to see that you are not in the house. ”
As if he hadn't heard the middle-aged man's words, the boy ran quickly to the shop selling steamed buns. To this day, there are still people gathered around looking at two girls in cloth clothes.
"Whose girl is this? Why didn't I know there was such an interesting girl in our town?"
Seeing that it was the young master of the Chu family, the people dispersed one after another. The Chu family is the official family of this town. Everything in this town is in charge of this boy's mother, although this young master is very good at talking, but his mother is really a powerful character, and everyone will inevitably be a lot colder to this enthusiastic young man. No one wants to be in trouble.
