Chapter Seventy-Six: The Bazaar
When they got home, a little girl was looking at the door, and when she saw him come back, she shrank in and looked a little timid.
Qin Xiuwu smiled and said, "This should be Brother Qin's daughter, since she is here." My sister-in-law should have arrived, too. ”
The two of them went in to take a look, and sure enough, a tall woman dressed as a young woman was talking to her grandfather.
Qin Xiuwu helped introduce the two to each other, and said to the woman, "Sister-in-law, why are you here, I was discussing with Ruoyou just now, I wanted to go to the house to have a look, but I didn't expect you to come over first."
It just so happened that my eldest brother was always thinking about you there, and heard that I had come back and asked me to bring back some souvenirs. ”
The sister-in-law snorted and said, "That dead ghost still remembers me, he ran to you this time, clearly saying that he was going to help you, but in fact, he didn't want to hide from me." ”
This made Qin Xiuwu dare not answer. His sister-in-law is also a strong woman, and she can make a career wherever she goes. It's just that unlike Ruoyou's introverted personality, soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, his sister-in-law's personality is a little flamboyant, and she is a bit domineering in doing things.
His eldest brother's ability is also good, and he can be called a middle-class posture. But the sister-in-law is still not satisfied, she doesn't care about the eldest brother's face outside, and sometimes she can even reprimand him and can't raise his head.
Whenever this time the eldest brother will run out for a period of time under the pretext of excuses, and this time I think it is no exception. But he can't tell the truth, otherwise the eldest brother won't be able to spare him.
"Sister-in-law, you're joking, but I invited you to help. If I hadn't come back this time, if I hadn't been afraid that there would be no one in charge of the ranch, and begged my eldest brother to let him stay there, he would have come back a long time ago.
When he came, he also asked me to tell you that he would take Tongtong to the ranch after the holiday. I will definitely take you with me when the time comes, and have a good time. ”
Sister-in-law Zhou Bing said with satisfaction: "That guy has a bit of a conscience." ”
Qin Xiuwu greeted Tongtong and said, "Little niece, why are you hiding behind your mother, don't you even know your uncle?" Come, I'll take you to the room to get something delicious. ”
Tongtong is a little girl of more than three years old, with long hair tied in a double ponytail, big eyes with an innocent gaze, and a round little blushing and cute.
Hearing him speak, Tongtong was behind her mother, shrunk her neck in fright, and ran out after a while. He looked at Ruoyou for a while, and suddenly ran to Ruoyou and shouted, "Uncle is bad, aunt hug." ”
The innocent children's voice laughed heartily. Only Qin Xiuwu was a little speechless, how could he be broken.
Ruoyou picked up Tongtong and glanced at Qin Xiuwu proudly, and said, "Let's go, Tongtong, I'll take you in and get something delicious." ”
The next day, Qin Xiuwu asked him to accompany his grandfather, and he took Ruoyou straight to the market. The bazaar is not big, only people from a few surrounding villages come to buy things. Businesses are also basically from this area.
However, although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs, and they sell food and play in the market.
A shouting sound from afar attracted Qin Xiuwu's attention. "Rock sugar gourd, sell rock sugar gourd."
This made Qin Xiuwu can't help but drool, the sweet and sour rock sugar gourd was his favorite snack when he was a child. I remember when he was a child, when he circled around his grandfather, his grandfather personally made rock sugar gourds for him.
It's just that as he grew older, the hardships of life pressed on him, so he didn't even have time to rest. Occasionally, I see in the city, selling rock sugar gourds, and it is difficult to eat the taste when I was a child when I buy a bunch of them.
He pulled Ruoyou, the two of them interlocked their fingers, squeezed over to take a look, he still knew the person who sold rock sugar gourds, it was Uncle Zhang who walked the streets and alleys when he was a child and sold him rock sugar gourds. The saliva in his mouth did not feel more and more.
"Third Uncle Zhang, bring me two strings of rock sugar gourds."
Hearing this, Uncle Zhang readily agreed and handed him two strings. When he saw him, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, it seemed that he didn't recognize Qin Xiuwu. He didn't stop moving, and he still had a businessman's smile on his face.
Qin Xiuwu saw it, and said in his birth, "Third Uncle Zhang, I'm a kid of the Qin family, don't you know me?" ”
Uncle Zhang recalled it at this time, smiled honestly and said, "It turned out to be you, we haven't seen each other since you went to college, it's been seven or eight years!" Is this your daughter-in-law? ”
Qin Xiuwu nodded, handed him the money and said, "Yes, this is our Third Uncle Zhang." ”
Ruoyou said hello to him, making Uncle Zhang smile from ear to ear, facing the money handed over by Qin Xiuwu, he stretched out his hand and pushed it back and said, "I can still ask for your money from the villagers, these two strings of sugar gourds will be given to your daughter-in-law to eat, no money." ”
"How can it be done, Third Uncle Zhang, you still need to do business, how can I do this."
Qin Xiuwu was so embarrassed, after pushing for a long time, he saw that Uncle Zhang resolutely refused to accept it, and he could only thank him for his kindness.
Qin Xiuwu tasted a bite of the rock sugar gourd, and it was still the same old taste. He couldn't help but stretch out his thumb and praise, "Okay, Uncle Zhang, I haven't seen you excel in kung fu all these years, and the rock sugar gourd you made is even more delicious!" ”
Uncle Zhang smirked and said, "Of course, what am I doing?" ”
If you taste it, it feels very delicious.
After chatting with Uncle Zhang for a while, the two left there, and then walked forward. A marshmallow seller catches Ruoyu's attention. Qin Xiuwu took a look at it and said, "Why do you want to eat marshmallows, or I'll buy one for you." ”
Ruoyou blushed and nodded, a little embarrassed.
Qin Xiuwu smiled and teased, "I can see that you, a strong woman, are still so greedy." What an old person, still thinking about eating marshmallows. I...... Otherwise, I'll buy two, and we'll have one each. I'd like to try it too. ”
He had to change his words, Ruoyou's hand was already on his waist, turning 360 degrees. If he dares to continue, he won't want the whole waist.
Ruoyou let go of her hand with satisfaction, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "This is a good boy." ”
Qin Xiuwu's face twitched and he didn't speak.
The two men took the marshmallow and ate it. Not to mention, even if it is an adult, Qin Xiuwu tastes very good. I feel like I'm back when I was a child, and I can't help but recall the happy days of my childhood.
When passing by the place where chickens and ducks were sold, two pheasants that were struggling on the ground attracted Qin Xiuwu's attention. He could see that it was a real pheasant, and that it was caught in the wild. It's not the kind of free-range in the mountains, fed and pretended.
Seeing these two pheasants, Qin Xiuwu remembered the pheasant soup his mother made for him when he was a child. The soup is so thick that you can swallow it even on your tongue.
After asking the price, Qin Xiuwu bought it. Let Erdemutu follow behind with pheasants.
After buying two pieces of pork in front of the butcher stall, the two soon came to the stall selling sickles. Qin Xiuwu casually picked up two sickles that looked good, and asked the price to buy them.
After walking around for a while, seeing that it was not early, several people drove home.
