Chapter 37: Riverside

Although Eurasia complained that Jiang Hui had taken him badly and couldn't get the first place, he had secretly completed all the courses. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He understands that it is glorious to take the first face, but it is not his purpose.

He has been very annoyed in his heart, and Shi Xiang has been avoiding him. This is all Jiang Hui's ghost. Although Shi Xiang can be seen in another dimension, and she talks and laughs very harmoniously, in real time and space, Shi Xiang is completely like a different person.

Eurasia often wonders, could they be the same person?

Eurasia often has an illusion that in his previous life, he and Shi Xiang were a family. Shi Xiang drank Meng Po's forgetfulness soup, and after reincarnating, she forgot all about the past. And he never drank the Forgetfulness Soup, and remembered everything clearly.

Since the younger brother sealed the passage to the Crystal Palace, not only could he not go to the Crystal Palace, but even a large part of his experience before entering the Crystal Palace was sealed.

He can still see Shi Xiang in the different dimension, and the two of them can laugh, but they can't touch each other. Shi Xiang is like a high-voltage electric eel in the deep sea, as long as it touches, the eye-piercing arc crackles and beats Eurasia half to death in an instant.

Is this the captain warning him, Shi Xiang is not his, but why did he put her back?

The captain said that Shi Xiang was the daughter of the concubine, but he only said that the concubine did not talk about himself, that is, he did not admit that Shi Xiang was his daughter. Then Shi Xiang's father is also a descendant of the fish people!

Eurasia is very excited, he can learn the secret of the fishman from Shi Xiang's father.

On the afternoon of Saturday, April 2, Ouya went to Shixiang's house. He had never visited her house in the second dimension. He thinks that visiting Shi Xiang's house is a very sacred thing, and he doesn't want to make this sacred thing like a dream, he wants to really appreciate the true feelings.

Although it is late spring, the afternoon sun is already very powerful. The old riverside pier looks dark and damp.

Ouya walked down the narrow bluestone steps, and the stone walls on both sides of the passage were covered with cyan moss. The sun is fierce, and Eurasia still feels the cold.

Underneath the passage is an abandoned dock. On the stone steps of the pier squatted a long line of laundry women. There is a granite street on the bank of the river.

The narrow streets are lined with a large number of low, old houses.

This is the last piece of the old city to renovate. Most of the residents have lived here for generations, and there are so many lingering memories and strong feelings here. As the demolition procession and forklifts were about to drive in, residents staged a sit-in in front of the city hall to protest the brutal demolition. Demolition plans were put on hold for the time being.

Walking on the narrow and deserted streets, Eurasia seems to have stepped into history. There are a few small shops scattered along the streets. At the door of an incense and candle shop, Ouya stopped a little girl and asked where Shi Xiang's house was?

The little girl blurted out and asked, "You want to buy fish?" ”

Eurasia nodded hesitantly.

The little girl turned around and pointed to a lane and said, "This is the place where the stinky coaxing is!" With that, she ran away.

Ouya was a little surprised, he took a slow breath, and there was indeed a smell of hot salted fish in the hot and humid air.

He searched for it, and the taste became stronger and stronger. Finally he came to the door of a house. The two wooden doors were locked.

It is a two-section mixed house, with a red stone wall on the lower floor and a blackened wooden shed on the top. The red stone is damp and mossy, and in some places it has weathered and powdered, and the moss is peeling off in pieces.

On the handrails of the black wooden balcony on the second floor, there are many bamboo forks. There are bamboo poles on the bamboo forks, and strings of salted fish are drying on the bamboo poles.

There was a wooden ladder protruding from the balcony and resting on the redstone wall of the house opposite. There are several large bamboo plaques on the wooden ladder, and the bamboo plaques may be dried parallel goods such as small fish and shrimp.

That's where the strong salted fish smell comes from.

Eurasia doesn't believe his eyes a little, could this be Shi Xiang's home? How would an elegant, refined, and beautiful girl come from such a family?

"No, no!"

The little girl's voice came to her ears again: "The place where the stinky coaxing is!" ”

Eurasia lingered at the gate for a long time. Later, he simply sat down at the front of the steps and waited for Shi Xiang to come back.

After waiting patiently for a long time, I saw that the dried fish hanging on the bamboo pole and the bamboo plaque resting on the escalator were no longer in the sun, and the smell of coaxing seemed to be a lot lighter, revealing a trace of the meat aroma of dried fish.

A thin black middle-aged man came over with a cart and saw a big boy sitting in front of his house, so he asked, "Why are you sitting here?" ”

Ou Ya was stunned for a moment, and pointed upwards casually: "I want to buy salted fish." ”

The middle-aged man felt strange: "How do you know that there is salted fish here?" ”

Ouya thought that he was Shi Xiang's father, so he suddenly changed his mind, and instead of saying that he came to find Shi Xiang, he pretended to be a customer buying fish, and said nonsense: "I'm a cat, and I came over when I smelled the fragrance." ”

"Okay, you wait." The middle-aged man believed it, he put down the cart, took out the key and opened the door. "Come in and sit!"

Ou Ya couldn't wait to go in and take a look, so he stepped into it in one step. In the middle of the hall is a dining table, above which is an energy-saving lamp. Eurasia wondered if this was the place where Shi Xiang did her homework at night.

The middle-aged man asked, "Do you drink water?" ”

"Thanks, don't drink."

"I was so thirsty that I didn't drink any water all afternoon." While pouring water from a large teapot, the middle-aged man asked Ouya: "How many catties do you want to buy?" ”

"Let's do it." Seeing that the middle-aged man was obviously disappointed, Ou Ya immediately added: "Try it first, if it's delicious, I'll buy a few more catties next time." ”

The middle-aged man became excited, and he talked more: "It must taste good!" As soon as my wife came to my house, she started selling fish, and it has been more than ten years, and she has a good reputation. By the way, there is often no one in my house, so if you want to buy fish in the future, just go directly to the vegetable market and find a fish stall for the old woman's child. At this time, my daughter will probably help sell fish together. Ah, sit down first, and I'll get you a fish. ”

The middle-aged man put down the cup when he mentioned his daughter, turned around and went upstairs.

Ouya saw several large wooden cabinets on the wall in front of the hall, and there were several bags of dried salted fish stacked on them, and he was curious, isn't there salted fish here, what kind of fish do you want to take? The middle-aged man quickly went downstairs, holding a ruler in his hand and handing the long salted fish to Eurasia.

"Oh, you take it!"

Ouya hurriedly retracted his hand and said, "You weigh, how much?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "This fish is not for sale, it is reserved for yourself to eat." ”

"Why?" Eurasia was amazed.

"This fish was pickled on the day of the winter solstice last year, and after it came out of the tank, it was dried in the sun for several consecutive days, and the fish meat was red, and it tasted particularly fragrant and chewy. It's rare to get a few in a year. ”

"Then I won't dare to ask for it."

"Take it, it's homemade, it's not worth a few dollars. I think we're very lucky! ”

Ouya's heart jumped suddenly, his face felt feverish, and he asked, "What is the fate?" ”

"No one will meet. I think you're a middle school student too, right? The middle-aged man said, stuffed the fish into Eurasia's hands, and said with a smile: "This fish is very nutritious, with a long memory!" ”

Eurasia is no longer easy to excuse and take the fish. He looked at his body, and there was nothing special. I don't know if the other party knows him, otherwise how could he give himself a good fish? Ouya really regretted that he had just said that he was a fish buyer, and directly said how good it would be to come to Shi Xiang and return the notebook.

Pointing to the wooden cabinet and large plastic bag against the wall, Eurya asked, "It's all fish?"

"Yes, looking for a buyer."

"Sold?"

"No, your own fish."

"Aren't you pulling a cart and working as a porter?"

"It's a temporary change of career, and it's hard to sell fish now."

Eurasia was shocked, didn't Shi Xiang sell the fish?

"I'll help you sell fish!" Eurasian said impulsively.

"You?" Chang Gui was extremely surprised, looked at the big boy in front of him carefully, and said, "No need, I want to delay your study!" ”

"No, I'll help you open a fish shop online, and it won't be long before you will be in short supply!"

"Oh, my daughter proposed the same thing, but I don't want to make a big fuss, so it's nice to be safe and sound."

Eurasia was anxious, "No, there are thousands of online stores, and customers are all looking at goods and not people, who knows who you are!" ”

Chang Gui looked at Eurasia in surprise, "What do you mean by that?"

Ou Ya opened his mouth slightly and was stunned, realizing that he had missed his mouth, which aroused Shi Bo's suspicions.

"I mean that as long as the goods are good and reputable, customers generally do not ask who the boss is, whether he is a Chinese or a foreigner!"

Chang Gui said: "Thank you for your kindness, I'll talk to my daughter again." ”

Chang Gui stood up.

Eurasia couldn't sit down anymore, picked up the dried fish, thanked him, and hurriedly said goodbye.

Eurasia probably wouldn't be wrong to judge that Chang Gui was a descendant of a fishman, he was a fisherman with clever fishing skills, but there were many doubts about how to say that he was Shi Xiang's biological father.

First of all, Chang Gui and Shui Ji are really not a good match in appearance, and they are too far apart. One is graceful and luxurious, with a beautiful body; The other was dark and thin, with no long body, and I didn't know what else to do except fish.

Second, there is too much difference in age. Shui Ji fell on the earth as the captain's concubine for a hundred years, and Chang Gui was only a middle-aged man.

Third, in the Crystal Palace, except for the captain and one Qing Youyu, the others are all bionic robots, how did Chang Gui get into the Crystal Palace, and how could he have an affair with Shui Ji?

Eurasia thought about it while walking, and unconsciously came to the bank of the river, and went upstream against the river to the avenue along the river.

"Master!" A thunderous voice sounded in my ears, and at the same time, I received a heavy slap on the left shoulder!
