Chapter Twenty-Four: Stingy

In the depths of winter, the snow is falling, but it is only in the morning, but it is as dark as dusk.

The car stopped at the foot of Jiuli Mountain, and the clear car left behind it was not long before it was covered by heavy snow.

Snowflakes fell on the windshield and were swept down by the windshield wipers.

That year, he accompanied her back to Changxi, and when he left, it was snowing heavily in Yanjing as it is now! Lin An breathed heavily, for a long time, and when his mood was suppressed and calm, he turned his head and shouted softly, "Sister Hua, Sister Hua!"

"Have you arrived?" The figure in the passenger seat sat up, Sister Hua rubbed her eyes, and showed a wry smile on her face, "I'm sorry, I fell asleep while talking on the road! ”

"It's fine. When you came, you said that there was a very important activity in the afternoon, otherwise it would have made you sleep more. Lin An smiled, "Sister Hua has lost a lot of weight than the last time she came. ”

"Last time...... It feels like it's been a long time! It's a lot older, that girl will definitely say when she sees it!" Sister Hua looked at the heavy snow outside the window, and the guilt and remorse in her eyes flashed. She unbuckled her seatbelt and turned to pick up an umbrella and a wrapped bouquet of flowers from the back seat.

Lin An smiled silently, but his smile became more and more stiff.

"She likes this flower the most, I'm afraid I won't find it for a while, so I bought it in Hong Kong first and brought it over, so I won't complain!" Sister Hua shook the bouquet of pink carnations in her hand and looked out of the car, "It's snowing so much, I know I'm going to come to see her." This girl is really not distressed at all!"

Lin An turned his head to the other side and looked out the window at the world that fell into dead silence!

There was silence in the car for a while, and with the sound of the door opening, the cold air poured into the car. Sister Hua tightened her bloated down jacket, looking at the sea of snow that filled her field of vision, she asked in a low voice, "Haven't you seen her yet?"

Lin An's hand grasped the steering wheel, used all his strength, and nodded slightly.

"When, go see her. You know who she wants to see the most, don't always leave her there alone!" Sister Hua got out of the car, held the bouquet of pink carnations, opened the umbrella, and her figure gradually disappeared into the vast snow.

The doors closed again, blocking out the incoming cold air, and the interior of the car was getting colder.

Lin An's straight back collapsed, leaning weakly on the back of the seat, and vaguely looking at the constantly shaking wipers in front of him.

========================

"Young man, I said do you buy it or not?"

The noise resounded in my ears, and the snowflakes in the Christmas crystal ball in my hand slowly settled, revealing a lush bamboo forest and cute giant panda dolls. Lin An looked away and said to the vendor opposite, "Buy it, you want this!"

Coming out of the new street, I wanted to walk around, but there were too many people behind him for a while, and he was squeezed in the middle of the dizzy, if he hadn't put away his glasses as soon as possible, he was afraid that he would have been squeezed out and crushed.

When it wasn't too crowded, he noticed that everyone was almost out of the main street. Walking past the stall selling Christmas crystal balls, I couldn't help but stop when I saw that one of them was a giant panda doll inside. Ruan Ruan loves pandas the most, including all the peripherals.

"Seventy pieces a piece. The stall owner is a middle-aged man who is almost fifty years old, he was impatient when he saw Lin An holding the crystal ball in a daze for a long time, and when he heard Lin An say that he wanted to buy it, he looked overjoyed, and pointed to the remaining Winnie the Pooh crystal ball on the stall, "You can buy the last one together!"

What usually costs only twenty yuan, but now it sells for seventy yuan, Lin An didn't know how to complain, but when he thought of the things he sold on Xinjie and the price, he was immediately speechless.

Only this giant panda's is meaningful to him, and he doesn't sell it wholesale, what do you do when you buy so much. He put the Christmas crystal ball in his hand in front of him, squatted down in front of the stall, and pulled his wallet out of his pocket, "I only need this one!"

"That's not good, there are the last two left, if you want to buy it, you have to buy it together, otherwise you won't sell it." "The boss kept looking at the watch on his wrist. I don't know if I left in a hurry, I talked to Lin An, and started to clean up the stall with my hands low.

Seeing that Lin An closed the open wallet, and saw that there was no one nearby who wanted to come over for the time being, the stall owner was so busy laughing, "If there is an urgent matter at home, you can buy it together!" In this way, as long as the two of them buy it together, it will be counted as one hundred and one for you." Look at it, this crystal ball is bought from Haisha, and the purchase price will be 40! The whole temple fair is sold by my family, and you can't buy it when you go to Shonan now! If you miss this time, it will be gone!"

Helplessly, this crystal ball has just evoked some memories of Lin An, and I really want to buy it back. The price is no problem for him, but it is very uncomfortable to be shoehorned in, but there is no way, not to mention that the boss seems to be in a hurry.

After handing over the two hundred and putting the change into the wallet, Lin An asked the boss to find a bag to pack the two crystal balls.

At this time, a slender green onion white finger stretched out from behind Lin An's shoulder, pointing to the two Christmas crystal balls placed on the stall, "Boss, how much is this?"

"Both of them have been sold to this man, and they are sold out!" the boss rummaged around looking for the bag without raising his head.

"Ah, sold out. It's a pity, Xiao Nan, look, it's the little bear you want to buy!" muttered softly, and the soft voice continued to sound, "Boss, when are you coming tomorrow?"

"There's something going on at home, I won't be here tomorrow!" The boss found the bag, quickly packed the two Christmas crystal balls, and then put them in the bag and handed them to Lin An.

"Not coming, Xiaonan, they said that there is only one here that sells this, what should I do?

The soft voice whispered softly, Lin An relaxed his taut back, turned around, raised his head, the dazzling sunlight shone in his face, and the delicate little face was blurred and illusory in the light!

"Lin An?"

The girl shook her head in surprise, just blocking the dazzling sunlight, and her pretty face immediately became real and clear. Lin An stood up with his bag and saw the girl in the double ponytail school uniform standing next to Ruan Ruan.

Ruan Ruan subconsciously approached Tang Xiaonan, gently grabbed Tang Xiaonan's arm, her eyes widened and she looked quietly, "It's really you!"

"Are you here to visit the temple fair?" Lin An looked up at the sun near noon, and the two of them were still carrying schoolbags, so they should have come over as soon as they got out of school.

Tang Xiaonan glanced at Lin An from the beginning, and the rest of his expressionless eyes glanced to the side.

"Yes, are you too?" Ruan Ruan Ruan dragged Tang Xiaonan's arm, the corners of her mouth curved, "Sister Lan Ying said that you are a student of Lingshui Town, how can you have time to come?" Also, why are you dressed like this!"

"I'm taking a leave of absence today, come over to play with my classmates!" Lin An looked at the pair of smiling eyes, and the cold in his heart that was evoked by memories gradually warmed up at this moment.

Ruan Ruan glanced up at the top of Lin An's head, looked down and found that Lin An's feet were leather shoes with a slight heel, she quietly leaned over to Tang Xiaonan's earlobe with a smile, and whispered, "Haha~ It's taller than you!"

Lin Jiazuo didn't hear it, and when he saw that the boss next to him hurriedly cleaned up and left, he raised the bag in his hand, "You came to buy this?"

"Yesterday, a few classmates bought it here, and we immediately ran over after school, but we didn't think it was too late. The Christmas crystal ball packaging box is transparent, and the packaging bag is also transparent, Ruan Ruan glanced at it a few times. It just so happened that one was Tang Xiaonan's favorite Winnie the Pooh, and the other was her favorite giant panda, but ......

Tang Xiaonan looked around, there was no similar stall nearby, maybe it was really like what his classmates said, and he didn't see any other stalls selling Christmas crystal balls when he came all the way. She stretched out her hand and pulled Ruan Soft, saying, "If you can't buy it, forget it, let's go back quickly, we still have classes in the afternoon."

"I walked around casually, and the boss said that it was cheap to buy it, and I didn't really want it. Lin An handed over the bag, and seeing Tang Xiaonan pulling Ruan Ruan to frown and look at him vigilantly, he continued with a smile, "It's not for you, you like it so much, these two can be transferred to you!"

Ruan turned her head to look at Tang Xiaonan with a smile, "Stingy!"

Tang Xiaonan pushed softly, her eyes were slightly less vigilant, and her eyes involuntarily slid to the Winnie the Pooh Christmas crystal ball, "How much?"

Lin An smiled and handed the bag to Ruan Ruan, "Twenty yuan for one, two for forty yuan." ”

"Forty together, isn't it sixty yuan, yesterday my classmates bought it here and said it would cost sixty!" Ruan Ruan's outstretched hand retracted and turned his head to look at Tang Xiaonan.

"The boss is in a hurry to go home, you have also seen it, and said that the last two will be bought together, only forty!" Lin An took half a step forward and handed the bag to Ruan Ruan.

Tang Xiaonan next to him hesitated, then opened the bag on the side of the schoolbag, took out the money from it, counted forty to Lin An, nodded reluctantly as thank you, and immediately dragged Ruan Ruan into the distance
