Jia Yi accompanied her parents to walk back and forth in the vegetable market.

But for the father, once the mother was there to buy vegetables, he would cut his hands and pace with great interest, or look at some fresh vegetables, or chat with a few familiar stall owners, or simply stand on the fish stall, and look at the occasional soft-shelled turtle, pond fish or other rare aquatic products on the stall.

The mother pulled Jia Yi into the crowded vegetable area, while fiddling with the dishes of the stall owners, while paying the price, from time to time to look at the father, and began to count the father in his mouth again: "Look at your father, he is so lazy to make a name, he has no face to look at it, see me buying vegetables here, he is playing on the side, today should really let him come to buy vegetables alone......"

Jia Yi has long been accustomed to complaining about her mother.

Jia Yi doesn't know how her parents are united, but after all, it has nothing to do with love. Mother got married at a very young age and then gave birth to Jiayi, and the two ushered in Jiaxing in the quarrel, but although they have two children, she and her father still do not see the slightest maturity, quarreling, complaining, cursing each other, and even sometimes doing it directly in front of the children, the two immature people spent half a hundred years in this way, but the mother still did not divorce the father.

Jia Yi also knew that her mother would not take the initiative to divorce, because the weak woman was used to relying on a man, both financially and physically, and she was completely dependent on her, and she couldn't live independently at all.

But she still once instigated her mother, that is, when she learned from her mother that her father was cheating, Jia Yi shouted directly to her mother: "Why don't you divorce?" ”

The mother's answer was very simple: "What can I do if I leave?" ”

Since then, Jia Yi has repeatedly vowed that she must be independent, materially, physically, and spiritually, and she cannot imagine her marriage, nor can she believe that she will belong completely to whom she will belong in the future.

Only by being independent, materially, physically, and spiritually, can she avoid living a humble life like her mother.

Although she was already familiar with her mother's complaints, Jia Yi couldn't help but interrupt her and asked, "Has your father treated you better in the past few years?" ”

The mother didn't look at Jia Yi, she was still picking up the dishes seriously, and said, "It's good to go there, can people like him still change?" ”

The words were harsh, and Jia Yi's mind was still discerning what kind of person her mother was referring to by "that kind of person".

"That'...... What about cheating? Jia Yi asked her mother cautiously in the noisy vegetable market, and as she spoke, she grabbed the stall owner's mud-stained lotus root with both hands.

"Cheating? Why are you asking this? He is an ugly old man with no money, who wants to seduce him! "Mother still didn't look at her.

Jia Yi didn't notice that her nails had been pinched into the fresh lotus roots. "Because ......," she trembled and was about to answer, when the stall owner shouted, "Alas, girl, you have to ask for this lotus root, how can you sell it if you pinch it like this!" ”

Then her mother looked at her, staring at her and the lotus root in her hand with an inexplicable look, and said, "What are you doing?" Seeing that Jia Yi didn't answer, he shouted to the chattering stall owner: "What do you want, you want to sell such a small hole, do you usually give your business to dogs?" ”

The stall owner had no choice but to give up, and the mother turned the stall owner's vegetables over to the bottom and handed the picked vegetables to the stall owner for weighing, and the man was already dissatisfied, saying, "Eight yuan five!" ”

The mother immediately grabbed Bai and said: "This is only eight yuan, you rob it, 7 yuan, if you don't sell it, I'll forget it......"

The stall owner man was obviously furious, and when Jia Yi saw this, he immediately took out a 10 yuan from his wallet, handed it over, and said, "Okay, okay, eight yuan five is eight yuan five." ”

The mother immediately tried to stop her, saying, "You have a lot of money, where can it be so expensive, I said seven yuan, seven yuan." ”

Jia Yi really didn't like to argue with a man who was taller than herself and her mother in the messy county vegetable market, not to mention that her father was still watching the fish from a distance.

Jia Yi urged the man to make change, and pulled his mother to the side.

After the two finally bought all the things, the two of them came out of the encirclement, and the mother took all the things to herself, she still cared about Jiayi's 10 yuan handed out without her permission, and kept saying: "You really have a lot of money, no wonder your father said that you can take the money so decisively to open a store, and you don't even say a word to the family." ”

Jia Yi was also dissatisfied and said, "Mom, these are fundamentally different things, I ...... I don't like arguing in public. ”

The mother looked at Jia Yi and didn't speak again, but her bulging cheeks had already sued Sù Jia Yi, she was very angry and disagreed, whether it was the settlement just now or the daughter gave up her job and came back to open the store.

Suddenly, her mother didn't go any further, she put all her things on the ground, crossed her waist, and yelled at the other end: "Liang Jinping! ”

This decibel sound was like thunder, and Jia Yi couldn't help but startle her, and she also carved a way through the crowded pedestrians to reach her father, who naturally turned around and walked leisurely towards the mother and daughter.

Jia Yi felt a sense of shame that wanted to flee the scene, and her face was red and blue for a while, but just as she was looking around to avoid the gaze that passers-by threw at her mother, she saw a familiar figure, just outside the vegetable market, Gao Qu squatting next to a fruit stall selling dates, picking up something.

Jia Yi panicked and thought, "Why is he here?" Yucheng Hotel is far from here. ”

She looked at Gao Qu, for fear that he would not know when to turn around, and hurriedly picked up a few bags of vegetables, beckoning her parents to go in the other direction.

The father said, "That's the exit, you don't know the way, follow your mother." ”

The mother immediately stepped out first, she looked at Jia Yi and said, "You follow me, your father is more rubbing, so as not to get lost later!" ”

When my father heard this, he began to be dissatisfied again, and said: "What do you mean that I am more rubbing, and when I come to the vegetable market, I want to look left and right, which is like you, and I see that I am buying these vegetables......

Mother also replied in front, the crowd was noisy, and Jia Yi didn't know what the two were arguing about, because all her energy at the moment was focused on when Gao Qu would turn around.

The parents were still arguing with each other one by one, and seeing that the three of them were soon approaching Gao Qu, he just took out his wallet as if he was about to pay, and Jia Yi suddenly accelerated his pace at that moment, and when he lowered his head, he slipped past him unconsciously.

Sure enough, she quickly bypassed Gao Qu and walked in front of her mother, but her mother stopped arguing with her father and shouted at Jiayi, "Where are you going?" ”

Jia Yi had no choice but to turn around and say, "I ......"

As soon as she turned around, she met Gao Qu's eyes, she immediately turned her head, but shouted behind her: "Jiayi, wait a minute!" ”

Jia Yi pretended not to hear, and walked through the crowd with small steps, but the phone rang immediately.

She knew that it was Gao Qu, so she didn't answer, so she could only trot and walk for a while, shook off her parents, hid outside a shopping mall, and answered the phone: "Hey, what are you doing?" ”

"I want to buy fruit, but I don't have enough change, and I can't pay electronically, so I want to ask you to borrow money......"

"Do you know that my parents are next to me? You're embarrassing me! ”

"I know, what's so embarrassing, they're giggling next to me right now......"

"What?!" His father's voice was faintly heard on the other end of the phone, and Jia Yi immediately hung up the phone, and had to go back the same way through the crowd.

Gao Qu is standing with his parents.

When Jia Yi walked towards them, her hands kept squeezing her mobile phone nervously, sweating, her heart was very confused, thinking about how to explain to her parents, and how to explain to Gao Qu - she thought that Gao Qu must have been surprised to see her and her parents in such a vegetable market.

She walked up to the three of them, just smiled, glared at Gao Qu a few more times, noticed her father's eyes, and immediately lowered her head again.

Gao Qu smiled happily and said, "Uncle borrowed money from me just now, I'll transfer the money to you." ”

"No, you can go back quickly." She refused, for fear of having something to do with him, but it was obviously useless.

The father said, "Jiayi, don't you want to introduce me?" He said he was yours ......"

Jia Yi immediately raised his head and replied first: "No! ”

"Why not, isn't that voice the same friend you had on the phone last night?" The mother questioned.

Gao Qu and his parents were surprised, and Jia Yi had to pretend to be friendly and smiled at Gao Qu first, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Oh-yes, he ...... It's the one who doesn't know much about it...... Friend! She squeezed a smile at her parents, for fear of revealing clues.

Gao Qu said to Jiayi's parents: "Uncle and aunt, it's a little noisy here, why don't we go to the side and talk about it." ”

Jiayi's parents nodded, and soon Gao Qu led everyone to the outside of the shopping mall where Jiayi had been hiding just now.

Gao Qu proudly showed the dates to Jia Yi, but she glared at him harder and poked him with her elbow.

Gao Qu suddenly realized that Jia Yi's parents were looking at him with curious eyes, he touched his head, and quickly smiled back and said, "For Jia Yi, I am indeed a friend; My name is Gao Qu, and I met Jia Yi in N City, and this time she happened to come here to play. ”

Liang Jinping was still looking at him and said, "Then why don't you come to the house as a guest?" ”

Gao Qu touched his head again and said, "Actually, ......"

Jia Yi replied first: "He said he was busy before, how do I know that he is here to buy it now-" Gao Qu immediately showed her the dates, Jia Yi glanced at them, and continued: "Oh, buy dates!" ”

The two old men still looked at them with suspicion, Liang Jinping directly crossed his hands on his chest, and his posture was exactly the same as Jia Yi's, he looked at Gao Qu like he was examining the fish of the vendor just now, and said, "Then if you are okay now, come to my house for dinner." ”

Gao Qu immediately replied, "Well, yes! His voice changed in tune behind him, as Jia Yi was holding his hand on the back of his waist.

Fortunately, Jiayi's parents were not suspicious, and his father was saying to his mother, "Then I'll go buy a fish, it's not enough vegetables." ”

The mother nodded and said, "I'll lead them home, you come back quickly, don't buy so many fish bones!" ”

Liang Jinping just took a few steps, looked back at Gao Qu, and asked, "Have you ever visited the vegetable market here?" Do you want to go fish watching together? ”

Gao Qu just wanted to respond with "okay", but Jia Yi grabbed him and blinked vigorously to try to stop it.

Liang Jinping urged again, Gao Qu hurriedly handed a bag of dates to Jia Yi, replied "yes" to Liang's father, turned his head to look at Jia Yi with murderous eyes, he smiled and leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, I'm your friend, I'm just here to play, and I had something to do today but suddenly wanted to buy dates so I came to the vegetable market, are you satisfied with the above answer?" Anything else to add? ”

Jia Yi didn't care about her mother's constant staring at Gao Qu and herself, she pulled Gao Qu's shoulder, leaned close to him and whispered in his ear: "Don't tell him, I borrowed money from you, don't tell him about the things I went to consult, and don't tell him about the messy things in N City, you know?" ”

Gao Qu confidently made an OK gesture, smiled goodbye to Liang's mother, and went to buy fish with Liang Jinping.

The mother looked at Jia Yi with a nervous face, and couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong?" You two look weird? ”

Jia Yi shook her head, frowned and smiled, her whole face was about to be twisted together, she looked at Gao Qu and her father going away, and secretly worried in her heart: "I don't know what Dad will say to Gao Qu ......" (to be continued. )
