Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Eccentric Boy in Blue
Su Chan squatted down in front of the bucket with rare interest, and looked intently at the fat pufferfish, and sure enough, it didn't take a while. The puffer fish, which didn't feel the threat, gradually deflated, she reached out and stirred it in the water, and the puffer fish immediately swelled up angrily, Su Chan couldn't help but laugh:
"It's really puffing up!"
Su Miao had never seen Su Chan smile, and when she saw her smile coldly, she was careful, she only felt that her sister was so cute, squatted down and hugged Su Chan's shoulder, and said generously:
"Do you like it? The second sister bought it for you! ”
"Huh? I didn't ......" Su Chan was slightly stunned, and was suddenly bought something she liked on the spot, which she had never experienced before, and she was very overwhelmed.
"Sister-in-law, Chan'er likes it, sell me this fish, how much does it cost?" Su Miao had already raised her face and asked.
"What's the money, a fish, if you like it, I'll give it to you!" Sister-in-law Man smiled generously.
"How kind is that...... Think! Su Miao hadn't finished speaking, she only felt a flower in front of her, a blue figure squatting beside her, and her slender white hand reached into the bucket to lift the fishtail, so the poor little puffer fish was rudely lifted out of the water and fluttered in annoyance, and the splash accurately covered Su Miao's face, Su Miao's eyes twitched fiercely, and she looked at the rude people beside her with annoyance than the puffer fish who was pushed out of the water.
A young man as white as jade, his delicate skin was very clear and clean, and when he was so close, Su Miao couldn't see the slightest blemish on his skin. The afternoon sun shone on his face from the side, his eyes were as deep as a well, his eyelashes were long, the bridge of his nose was tall and arrogant, his face was angular, his two vermilion lips were shining with natural luster, and his fair hands were slender and slender, with beautiful lines and blue and white, and his joints were slightly wide. He had no hair tied up, and his long, silky black hair was loosened softly behind him. His stature is not low, and he is much taller than Su Miao when he squats on the ground, so it is no wonder that he gives people a feeling of standing out from the crowd. Even if he squatted on the ground, he could flow with luxury and elegance up and down, he was wearing a sky blue cloud brocade robe with silver and white dark lines, and a strange ornament was hung around his waist, a small scale made of mutton fat jade, yes, it was a small scale, and a string of jade scales were tied to the scale pole.
This person...... It's kind of weird.
Looks like a rich man though.
"There are still barramundi in the Qingjiang River!" He stared at the puffer fish in his hand that was completely bulging, muttered to himself, looked at his sister-in-law who was at a loss with a crimson face, and asked in a deep and pure voice like a thousand-year-old wine, "How do you sell this?" ”
Sister-in-law Man and Man Fang stared at him side by side, and it took a long time to react and stumble to answer:
"Father, son, this fish has been given to Sister Miao'er."
Su Miao looked at her sister-in-law's "shyness" like a young girl, looked up at the sun, and always felt that if Man Fu didn't come back, he would definitely be disgusted even worse today.
Hearing this, the boy in blue glanced back at Su Miao, then turned around directly in disregard, threw the poor puffer fish into the bucket, and asked lightly:
"How much does she pay?"
"Hey, I didn't pay for it, it was for Sister Miao to play." Sister-in-law Man was asked and replied stiffly.
"A tael of silver!"
"Huh?" Sister-in-law Man was stunned.
"I said I'd give you a tael of silver." The man in blue was a little impatient, frowned and said.
The nobleman's impatience frightened the sister-in-law Man, but she was begging for a living in the fish market, and quickly calmed down, one tael of silver is not a small amount, and one or two silver and a fish are even more windfalls for the Manchu family, but the sister-in-law agreed to Su Miao first. Sister-in-law Man glanced at Su Miao, hesitating in her heart, wanting to make this business but embarrassed to break her promise.
Su Miao understood what she was thinking, after all, Sister-in-law Man was doing business to make a living, and just now she was giving herself a friendship for nothing, and now someone is paying a lot of money to buy it, and Su Miao can't come up with more than one or two prices...... It's just that I am a little sorry for Su Chan, who is full of expectations, and I am racking my brains to think about how to explain to Su Chan, but I heard Su Chan say:
"Second sister, I don't want it."
Sister-in-law Man and Su Miao both breathed a sigh of relief, Su Chan was really a good child. Su Miao was not angry with her sister-in-law, but because Su Chan was too sensible, she was annoyed by the "Cheng Biting Jin" who suddenly came out, especially his attitude of "Lao Tzu is very rich, and the poor stand aside" made Su Miao, who is currently very poor, very unhappy.
The boy in blue didn't feel guilty at all that he had robbed other people's love, stood up, and indifferently ordered his sister-in-law to put the puffer fish in the water cage. The water cage is a container for short-term fish breeding, similar to an opaque small fish tank, the Manjia family belongs to small and medium-sized fish stalls, there are no such high-end things, the sister-in-law is busy with Manfang to borrow from other houses, the boy in blue obviously didn't expect it to be so troublesome, and frowned again, the sister-in-law is afraid that this business will fly, and she is more and more careful.
Su Miao was even more unpleasant, clasped her hands to her chest, stared at the boy in blue, and asked with a smile:
"Childe is a cook, right?"
The boy in blue was slightly stunned, looked over, and looked her up and down, immature appearance, long height, old bearing, strange contradictions. He stared at her for a moment, then asked slowly:
"What basis do you have?"
"Just look at your hands." She knows her hands soaked in water and oil all the year round, and the growth of human bones holding kitchen knives every day is not the same as that of ordinary people. ”
The man in blue had already taken his eyes off his hands, frowned when he heard the words, and asked in a low voice:
"What do you mean?"
"This fish is highly poisonous but it is a delicacy pursued by countless adventurous people, Childe must be a rare dish to buy back, this fish is extremely rare in the Qingjiang River, such a rare fish species, Childe wants to buy it for a tael of silver, Childe is the first time to visit the fish market or bully the sister-in-law who does not know anything maliciously to reduce the price? Childe is not kind to do this! Su Miao smiled innocently.
"The second sister seems to be angry." Su Yan squeezed beside Su Chan and whispered.
“…… The man is handsome, our second sister is as beautiful as a flower, but he doesn't even look at it, and wants to use silver to smash the poor and white second sister, although the third sister took the initiative to give up and save face for the second sister, but it is natural that the second sister will be angry. Su Chan was silent for a while and replied in a low voice.
Others didn't hear this conversation, but it came into Su Miao's ears word for word, the tail of his eyes twitched fiercely, his fist was put to his mouth and coughed heavily, Su Yan and Su Chan immediately straightened their backs and looked at the sun above their heads.
Sister-in-law Man already understood, Su Miao naturally wouldn't lie to her, and her face showed a little hesitation.
After listening to Su Miao's words, the man in blue did not deny and refute, he just looked at her directly, because there was no expression, Su Miao couldn't see what he was thinking.
