Chapter 2 I'm Hungry
It was almost November, and the autumn smell in the cities of northern China was already cold, and I saw that Lao Shi was dressed neatly, as if he was waiting for someone on a special trip, and I couldn't help asking: "Old man, do you know that we are coming back?" ”
Lao Shi snorted and said, "The phone at home rang and no one spoke, I guess someone wanted to inform me but didn't know what to say." ”
I was slightly taken aback, I didn't expect the old man to be so shrewd, so it seems that Xiaohui's IQ of 187 is mostly inherited.
Lao Shi looked at Xiaohui and said with an unpredictable smile on his face: "You want to surprise me?" ”
Xiaohui said uncomfortably: "You...... Pretty good, right? ”
"Ha, I'm so good, and you guys look good."
I laughed and said, "I don't even have the money for the car, how do you know we're good?" ”
Lao Shi said disdainfully: "The more this is the case, the more it shows that you are doing a big thing, I can guess from watching international news every day, and the one who comes back from outside with a large bag and a small bag is the most unproductive." ”
Ah Po stuffed his knightly medal in Lao Shi's hand, and said flatteringly: "I brought you some souvenirs." ”
Lao Shi looked at the gold and diamond medallion shining in his palm, and said strangely: "Souvenir? ”
I smiled and explained, "The kingdom of Fuga produces nothing but gold and diamonds. ”
Lao Shi stared at Ah Po and said, "It seems that your kid has not made much progress on my daughter." ”
Ah Po said depressedly: "How do you know? ”
"Nothing to do, either annihilation or theft, if you succeed, do you still have time to please me, an old man?"
Po: "......"
At this time, Alex's stomach screamed, and she clutched her lower abdomen and said in pain: "I'm hungry!" ”
Old Shi had already noticed her when we got out of the car and asked me, "What is this?" ”
Wang Shuisheng preemptively said: "This is my grandmother." ”
Old Shi looked at Alex and then at Wang Shuisheng, and without waiting for him to ask anything, Wang Shuisheng was busy again: "The ...... of the generation"
Lao Shi didn't ask much, and said to us: "Just now I booked a table at the small stall opposite, let's have a reception meal together." ”
Alex pulled me aside and said, "He Anyi, you said you wanted to treat me to a big meal." ”
I said, "You can ask for whatever you want when you order later." ”
"You forget, I can't eat your food."
I patted my head and said, "Not at all?" ”
"Nope."
"That's a pity, China's food is the best in the world, you can't taste it."
Alex licked his tongue and looked at passers-by on the street, "On the other hand, I agree with this statement - I already smell a lot of blood that I've never drunk before." ”
When the residents of Wangfu Street saw me coming back, they greeted me one after another, and I wiped my sweat while responding, "You can't touch these people." ”
Alex tilted his head and said, "Isn't there one you hate among so many people?" ”
I said frantically: "You can't touch anything you hate!" Just eat vegetarian for a few days! ”
Alex muttered dissatisfiedly, "You are not at all hospitable, and if you come to my territory, I will prepare the most delicious blood for you." She asked me, "Where are there animals around here that must live?" ”
I thought about it, the only place with hope was the vegetable market, so I glanced at Wang Shuisheng and told them to go to the restaurant first, and then take Alex to the vegetable market.
In late autumn, the vegetable market is also full of things, all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables are full of fresh fruits and vegetables under the greenhouse, it is very lively to buy and sell here, Alex covers her stomach and doesn't look at the side, I was horrified to find that her attention is mainly focused on the neck of the person who passed by her, Alex swallowed and said: "There are so many delicious foods here......
I grabbed her and whispered, "Calm down!" We're almost there. ”
Alex suddenly sniffled and said, "It smells of blood!" ”
We came to a meat stall, there were all kinds of meat and white chicken hanging on the hook, and the pork that had not been washed and peeled was still bloody, and the boss saw me and said with a smile: "Director He, rare, I heard that you went abroad some time ago?" He looked behind me and was surprised, "Yo, and brought back a foreign girl." ”
I smiled and said, "Do you have anything alive here?" ”
The boss scratched his head and said, "Alive? I won't let you sell it for a long time, and then what are you going to do with your work, that bloody one. ”
I said, "It's going to be bloody." ”
The boss shook his head and said, "That's not it." ”
I took Alex to a few more butcher stalls, all of which were dead except for the owner, who was alive...... And Alex was getting more and more out of control, she stared straight at the neck of a person who walked in front of her and said to me, "He Anyi, you can't let me starve to death here, right?" ”
Seeing that her eyes were no longer right, I hurriedly pulled her away from the crowd, and Alex cried out with his teeth and claws, "I'm hungry, I'm hungry!" While sticking out his ten fingers, trying to catch the fat man closest to her, I took her on my shoulders and ran away, Alex waved his paws, crying and wiping tears and refused to leave, passers-by looked sideways and said, "Why is this foreign girl so greedy?" Some people also whispered: "That man is also good enough, what good things can be in the vegetable market, and I am reluctant to spend this little money on pickling girls......"
I ran out of the vegetable market with her in my arms, and before I could catch my breath, a person Shi Ran walked over and said, "Director Xiaohe, I'm looking for you." ”
When I looked up, I saw that it was Aunt Meng, and the old lady came to me with two black chickens in her hand and said, "You are back, how was your play, you have lost a lot of weight, yo, what's wrong with your eyes?" ”
I rubbed my eyes that had turned red because of the increase in demonic power and smiled, "The jet lag hasn't been reversed yet, do you have something to do with me?" ”
"Hey, don't mention it, isn't this two live chickens sent by a relative in the countryside? How dare I kill an old lady, I just heard that you're back......"
"I'll help you kill!" Alex, who was originally listless, snatched the chicken from Aunt Meng's hand and jumped out with an arrow.
"Hey-" Aunt Meng raised her hand, and I hurriedly said, "It's okay, I know her." ”
"Oh, it's good to know, I thought the Xinjiang Provincial Gang had come to us."
I was speechless for a while, so I had to say, "I'll kill it in a while and send it to you." ”
Aunt Meng nodded and said: "By the way, I will hand over the work to you, the city has notified that there may be a power outage from tomorrow, we are the first batch, and I have already copied the notice......"
I couldn't help nodding my head in agreement, saying that it felt quite kind to listen to these parents after dealing with terrorists just after dealing with them.
After Aunt Meng finished explaining, she glanced in the direction where Alex ran and said, "That girl just now ......" I was about to explain, but the old lady shook her hand at me again and said, "Don't ask, don't ask, we won't ask about your young people." ”
I knew that if I didn't make it clear about this matter, I would be able to come up with more than a dozen versions as soon as I opened my eyes tomorrow, and I hurriedly said: "That girl is Wang Shuisheng's family." ”
"Oh, how old is it?"
“…… Twenty-four or five? I saw Aunt Meng looking at me suspiciously, so I had to say again, "Either it's a little older - I can't say how old the foreigner is." "I had to get her vaccinated first.
"Then what is the relationship between her and Wang Shuisheng?"
"Uh, to be honest, I can't figure it out, you have to ask Wang Shuisheng, anyway, they are their own family."
Aunt Meng was thoughtful, and chatted with me for a few more words before saying goodbye.
I hurriedly followed Alex to take a look, only to see her squatting in the corner, holding a black chicken high, cutting the neck of the chicken with her fingernails, looking up and drinking, the chicken blood at first spurted out like a pour, gradually tapered, and finally only a few drops flowed out, Alex drank loudly, one drank it, she concocted the other one in the same way, this time only halfway Alex stood up and said, "It's full." She sucked up enough blood, her eyes sparkled, and she shook the black chicken that was still dripping blood at me and said, "Do you drink it, don't waste it." ”
I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "You're welcome, I'll just eat." By the way, Xiaohui, they are still waiting for us, hurry up. ”
Alex said, "Am I going too?" ”
"Of course, you are the only one among these people, and it will be awkward if you don't go to others, and besides, it is our elders who invite guests after all, and it is not appropriate not to go."
"You said Xiaohui her father? How old is that old man? ”
"Sixty-somethings."
Alex smiled: "Can a man who has never even seen land drift dare to say that he is my elder?" Then she waved her hand and said, "Forget it, when I give Xiaohui a face, I'll go with you." ”
I am relieved, judging from the interactions during this time, Alex's temper is not bad, but sometimes he is a little reckless, thinking of one play after another, like a spoiled rich girl. At this moment, she was looking at the black chicken that was still dripping blood and felt sorry, so I had to go and buy a bottle of dark drink, and took out the bottle and took a small half bottle of chicken blood.
I mentioned two dead chickens and took her into the small stall, Lao Shi saw that everyone was full and asked the boss to serve the food, and the fat boss served a dish with a smile and said: "Welcome Director Xiao He back to China, this dish is delivered." ”
Before the words fell, a plate of blood tofu appeared on the table, Wang Shuisheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the chopsticks, while encouraging Alex to say, "Grandma, you should try this." ”
Alex dipped his chopsticks in his hand, licked the head of the chopsticks and frowned, "Uh, I'm full." ”
Lao Shi looked at them with interest and said, "Do foreigners also talk about seniority?" ”
Wang Shuisheng said unequivocally: "Of course! ”
Lao Shi smiled: "Then how can you say that she is your grandmother?" ”
Before Wang Shuisheng could speak, Alex said casually: "Actually, strictly speaking, I'm not his grandmother, we are screaming nonsense." ”
The old history didn't know why, so I didn't ask more, and asked Xiaohui to pour wine for everyone, Xiaohui just took the opportunity to divert the topic and poured it to Alex, Xiaohui looked at her in embarrassment, I hurriedly took out the half bottle of chicken blood and shook it: "She just drinks this." ”
The chicken blood was in the cup, thick and red, and there was blood foam floating on it, and I saw that old Shi Meilan and the others were looking at me curiously, so I could only reluctantly explain: "Alex only drinks red wine......"
