When I woke up the next day, I got up from the sticky mat and looked at my watch, and it was already eleven o'clock.

When I went out of the house with a basin and toothbrush, I found that there was one more person in the courtyard, a little old lady from the countryside who was not yet sixty years old, and she was sweeping the cinder ash at the door of the east house with a broom. Mother is also resting today, the Ming and Qing Dynasty cards into the account of 18,000, so that the mother these days a lot of energy, she shook a few wet clothes in the basin to the toon branch on the woolen rope hanging, see me come out, she introduced: "That your name is Grandma Zou, your Aunt Liu rented the house to Xiao Zou, we will be neighbors in the future." ”

Moved in so soon?

The courtyard where my house is located is not very big, the square layout, the two rooms in the north house are for me and my parents, and the two rooms in the west house are rented to a couple from Wenzhou, they are selling shoes, some of the family background, only use this place as a warehouse, and rarely come back in ordinary times. On the east side, there is one of my kitchen, and the other is the old neighbor Aunt Liu's, but Aunt Liu's son took her over when she got married, and the house was empty.

The track of history has gradually deviated, and originally, it should have been a middle-aged couple who opened a commissary who lived in Aunt Liu's house.

I said politely, "Hello Grandma Zou, well, has Aunt Zou also moved over?" I made an appointment with her to go to the bird market in the afternoon. ”

"She's in the house, I'll call her to you." Grandma Zou shouted twice at the East House.

My mom asked me what I was doing at the bird market, and I told her about Aunt Zou's gifts, but she didn't tell her that I was going to sell crickets.

Zou Yue'e, who came out of the house, had an excellent demeanor, with a white silk camisole on her upper body, and low-waisted hot pants and high-heeled sandals on her lower body. My heart was hot, and I looked away a little, trying not to look at her.

My mother frowned, but soon changed to a smiling face, talking and laughing with Grandma Zou and Zou Yue'e.

After washing up with the faucet in the center of the courtyard, I agreed with Aunt Zou on the time to go to the bird market, and turned to look at my mother: "Mom, where are those cricket jars from my junior high school?" ”

"It's all piled up in the box, you are tossing and turning, and I forgot about it." She pointed to the simple cottage next to the guide: "It's just right, just help Mom do some work, brush the bath bucket in your Aunt Liu's South House, and wait for the evening, let your Aunt Zou and her mother take a bath." ”

Zou Yue'e hurriedly stopped me: "Sister Cui, don't bother Xiaojing, I'll brush it later." ”

Grandma Zou also said: "Yes, Xiao Cui, don't let your son be busy." ”

"Both colleagues and neighbors, you two are polite to me." My mother said to me, "Don't go yet." ”

I said yes, picked up a brush from the corners, and walked into the southernmost room.

In the past, our family and Aunt Liu had a very good relationship, and this house was also built with our money, although it was not included in the real estate area, but many rooms were always comfortable, and we put things that our two families couldn't put in it, and it could also be used as a place to take a bath and wash clothes, which was very convenient.

After brushing Aunt Liu's wooden bath bucket, I also cleaned the bath bucket on the other side of the screen.

I then leaned over and opened a few large dusty pine boxes and found a few cricket jars. There is a saying that a good horse with a good saddle, if you want to sell my big head crickets for a good price, you always have to have some packaging. I picked a good jar made of mud and mud, rinsed it with water, and carefully fed the crickets in the plastic bottle into the jar.

Then, from an empty chess box at the bottom of the box, I found a cricket scout made of rat whiskers, brushed the soil on the fur, and gently used it to flick the cricket's whiskers.

I couldn't help but shout hello and rub my hands together, feeling more confident in it.

After hastily eating yesterday's leftover dumplings with three fresh fillings, I informed my mother, and then took a taxi with Aunt Zou and ran to Zizhu Bridge.

However, it is worth mentioning that before leaving, my mother glared at me inexplicably, which made me very puzzled.

Guanyuan Bird City moved to a new house, and we and the driver didn't recognize the road, so we parked the car on the side of the road.

After asking a newspaper seller for the exact address, we headed west and got on the overpass.

"Xiaojing, I'm going to go to the customer at seven o'clock in the evening, what do you say is appropriate?" Zou Yue'e brushed the hair of her sideburns behind her ears and smiled distressedly: "The best price is about two thousand yuan, and the kind with taste and connotation, alas, this customer is very important to our company, you have to help me." ”

I was holding the cricket jar and trying to walk, and when my eyes swept over the sides, I suddenly lit up and pointed to a few stalls on the overpass: "How are the orchids?" ”

"Orchids?" Zou Yue'e frowned, and agreed: "Okay, the orchid is good, the taste and connotation are complete, and unlike antiques, I am always worried about buying fakes, well, you still have an idea." ”

In the middle of the two stalls selling naked female playing cards and selling white rabbits, there is a middle-aged man sitting on the ground, under the big parasol, there are several pots of expensive orchids, because the flowering period has passed, only two pots of Jianlan, commonly known as the Four Seasons Orchid, are blooming, and the rest of the pots can only rely on the picture card standing in front of the pot to distinguish the flower species. There are swinging mountain lotus, crystal plum, jade rabbit, good guys, all of which are high-end precious varieties.

Zou Yue'e took the lead in walking over and squatting down, "Hey, why is your Jianlan different from what I've seen?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "You mean there are no spots on the lip flap, right?" This is the top grade, called Suxin Jianlan. ”

Zou Yue's buttocks are the kind of curvy and fat, it doesn't matter if she squats, the back of her low-waisted pants turned out a purple lace edge directly in front of me. I wanted to remind Aunt Zou that she was gone, but I couldn't say it, I thought about it, I saw a woman riding a bicycle with her autumn pants and panties exposed, which was very common. So I didn't speak. Maybe people don't care about this, maybe they do it deliberately.

I squatted over without squinting, and at this time, Zou Yue'e was already bargaining with him.

The Suxin Jianlan is indeed very beautiful, with wide and thick leaves, erect like a sword, and fat petals, resembling bamboo leaves.

is worthy of being a salesman, Zou Yue's bargaining methods are endless, "You see I call you big brother, are you really embarrassed to worry about my sister for those hundreds of yuan?" ”

"Oh, you're really good at bargaining, I'm convinced, convinced, can't we make a deal?"

When Zou Yue'e smiled and took out her wallet, I recalled a news item in the evening newspaper, "...... Wait a minute. ”

"How?" Zou Yue'e didn't know why.

I put my head together in Jianlan, and after a few seconds, I frowned: "This uncle, you're a little unkind, aren't you?" ”
