Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Grocery Store
"Why does Nannan suddenly want to eat steamed buns." Grandma asked.
"Brother Zhang's father came back from the city a few days ago with delicious steamed buns, I want to eat them, grandma, can you make them for me?" Xie Yinan's words are half-truths and half-truths, just look at how you understand them.
"Nannan can't mess around." When her mother saw Xie Yinan pulling the hem of her mother's shirt and swaying non-stop, it was clear that she would not give up if she did not achieve her goal, so she hurriedly stopped it. There is a limit to how coquettish children can be spoiled, but it is impossible to exceed this limit.
"Mom" Xie Yinan's aggrieved voice came, no longer coquettish, and the modification was pitiful.
"Don't talk about her, anyway, we're okay today, didn't your sister do it at home a few times before, Nannan wants to eat steamed buns, let's make it for her, where is it worth your anger."
Xie Yinan chose her grandmother's house to experiment with steamed buns, because her sixth aunt is a tossing person, and she used to make her own steamed buns at home to eat. Since grandma can indulge her daughter, she will definitely indulge herself. Look, this war of resistance is not a victory.
"Grandma, let's start now." There are many long nights and dreams, and Xie Yinan is naturally anxious.
"Little ghost, can't you trust your grandmother?" Grandma saw Xie Yinan's eagerness, no, she came to tease her again.
"Grandma is the best, Nannan likes grandma the most." Fighting with a shrewd grandmother, where will it be a smart person's choice, Xie Yinan feels that at this time, it is more effective to be coquettish and sweet.
"Nannan, you just said that your favorite person is your mother"
Mother, can you stop making trouble, I have important things to do!
"Mom, what Nannan said is that Nannan's favorite person is her mother." Adults are so naïve, Xie Yinan was helpless, and while saying nice words, he ran over to kiss his mother's face.
Xie Yinan was afraid that her grandmother would say something jealous, so after kissing her mother's face, she hurriedly ran back to her grandmother to kiss her face.
"You little clever ghost, let's go, let's make steamed buns with noodles."
Grandma was finally satisfied, and her mother had no intention of standing up and resisting again, so Xie Yinan breathed a long sigh of relief. This run around, but her little arms and legs are tired, and the most important thing is that the psychological pressure is great, with the soul of an adult, do some yellow-mouthed children's spilling things, think about being careful and the liver will tremble, it's simple.
"Nannan, there is no baking powder at home, and the resting time is too long, you go to the grocery store to buy a bag of baking powder and come back, grandma and your mother handle the filling at home first, okay?" Grandma said to Xie Yinan.
"Okay, I'll run with Xiang Rong and I'll be back soon." Xie Yinan nodded happily in agreement, pulled Xiang Rong and turned around to run.
"Nannan wait, why are you running so fast, what are you selling without money?" Grandma laughed.
Xie Yinan stopped and stuck out her little tongue embarrassedly, she forgot that she was a child, and the child had no money. Although her mother secretly stuffed a small purse for her when she left Lao Xie's house last time, which contained a lot of change, she didn't bring it with her today.
The busier and more chaotic it became, Xie Yinan looked at his grandmother's smiling eyes, and had to comfort himself like this.
"Wow, take it and go quickly." Grandma handed over 5 yuan, Xie Yinan took it, and said, "Thank you, grandma!" Then he ran away.
It wasn't until he ran a mile away that Xie Yinan stopped panting, glanced at Xiang Rong beside him, and was not much better than her, so he was relieved. Thinking about it, I feel that I am also very naïve, and there is no reason to be entangled, since this body is only so small, it is not too much to do something in line with the age.
Xie Yinan, you really think too much, thinking like this, you can't help laughing out loud.
"Nannan, what are you laughing at?" Xiang Rong asked her.
"Laugh when you're happy, what's the matter, isn't Rong Rong happy?" How can Xie Yinan tell her that she is full of thoughts, although the two of them had nothing to say and nothing to talk about in their previous lives, it was based on the fact that the other party's mind and age were equal. Now, forget it, Xie Yinan didn't say anything, just asked Xiang Rong with a simple question.
"Nannan plays with Rong Rong, and Rong Rong is also happy."
"That's good, let's go quickly, and go back to make steamed buns after shopping. Does Rong Rong like to eat steamed buns? ”
"What does a bun look like? Is it tasty? Rong Rong has never eaten steamed buns. Xiang Rong was just telling the truth, but Xie Yinan was a little unbearable to listen to.
"Buns, they are round, white, fat, fragrant, and there are fillings in them, which can be made sweet or salty, but they are delicious. Let's go back and learn to make it ourselves, make it and eat it ourselves, okay? ”
"Good!"
The two little girls walked all the way, chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they walked to the grocery store. Xie Yinan said that he wanted baking powder, and the grocery store owner looked for a long time before finding a pack, Xie Yinan took it and looked at it, okay, it was a pile of ash again. Fortunately, I wiped off the dust and saw that this bag of baking powder had not expired, otherwise, Xie Yinan would have been embarrassed whether to buy it or not.
This grocery store is not a grocery store in Lao Au Village, it is in the opposite direction from Lao Au Village, and it is only half an hour's walk from Xie Yinan's grandfather's house. Directly opposite the grocery store is the famous Martyrs' Primary School in Shili Eight Townships, which, as the name suggests, was where dozens of Soviet soldiers were buried during the Anti-Japanese War.
After the liberation of the Great Celestial Empire, this primary school was established to commemorate these sacrificed soldiers. It is said that when Mr. Chen Duxiu heard about this, he personally wrote an article published in "New Youth". Speaking of which, it can be regarded as a well-known elementary school.
In his previous life, Xie Yinan spent six years of his life in this primary school.
When his thoughts returned, Xie Yinan took the change, and was about to turn around to leave, when he saw Xiang Rong staring at the sugar in the glass jar with burning eyes, he decided to spend a dollar to buy candy to eat, and by the way, he left a few grains for Xie Yinan, which could be regarded as a promise to huàn.
"Rongrong, give you candy." Xie Yinan handed a few pieces of candy to Xiang Rong.
"Thank you, Nannan." Xiang Rong happily took it, but carefully put it in his pocket and put it away, it didn't seem that he was going to eat it.
"Rongrong, why don't you eat sugar."
"I took it home and ate it with my grandmother."
Xie Yinan didn't speak when he heard this, but his little heart was sour and numb, and he couldn't help but hate Xiang Rong's parents, so he ignored Xiang Rong and her grandmother, and was a son of man in vain!
She peeled two pieces of candy by herself, stuffed one into Xiang Rong's mouth, and ate the other by herself. Xiang Rong was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily at Xie Yinan.
