Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Little Girl Who Sells Popsicles
"Second uncle, popsicles!"
Although it is not far from Wujia Village to Shangdong Market, but the hot sun shines overhead, Wu Tian can't stand it for a long time, as soon as he arrives at the edge of Shangdong Market, he sees a stall selling popsicles and cigarettes, and immediately shouts.
"Okay, I'll buy you one to eat, hehe." Wu Jianmin stopped the donkey cart with a smile.
Wu Tian immediately jumped off the carriage, ran to the stall, and shouted, "Seven popsicles!" ”
"One, one will do." Wu Jianmin hurriedly said.
Today, it was Wu Jianmin who brought three carriages and a group of six people to the city to sell coal for burning bricks, and sent Wu Tian home by the way. If you want to say that your nephew eats a popsicle, of course you have to be satisfied when you are the second uncle, but you and the few people in the village who are driving are reluctant to eat it, and a popsicle costs five cents!
The popsicle seller was an eleven or twelve-year-old, handsome-looking little girl, but when she heard this, she stopped, and said timidly: "You say a few, I'll get it for you again, and when the lid is opened, you have to cover it again quickly, otherwise the popsicle will melt away......"
In these years, refrigerators and freezers are rare, and the stalls that sell popsicles do not have that kind of equipment, and they are all held in open insulated barrels similar to the inner liners of tea bottles.
"Seven!" Wu Tian said categorically, took out a handful of money from his pocket, took out a five-cornered one and handed it to the little girl. The "wealthy" posture couldn't help but make the little girl stunned, and even Wu Jianmin, who was following closely behind, was startled - this little guy actually carried such a thick stack of money? There are a few "great unity" among them!
"Dad, they want seven......" The little girl, apparently stunned by this "big business", turned her head and shouted to a man behind her under a shabby canopy made of tree branches.
"Okay, okay...... Let's sit down and cool down...... "The man beckoned everyone into the shed in Shannan dialect with a slight southern accent, and stood up with difficulty on the stool, and walked to see that one leg was not very dexterous, and when he got closer, he took the five cents handed over by the little girl, and took out a dime and a half change from his pocket and handed it to Wu Tian, then unscrewed the plastic lid on the thermos bucket, and then pulled the cotton stopper inside, and reached in to pick up the popsicle.
"One, two ......" The little girl took the popsicle handed over by her father, and then transferred it to Wu Tian and the others.
Seeing that his nephew had taken out the money, although Wu Jianmin was a little reluctant in his heart, he also beckoned everyone to take the popsicle and eat it.
Although popsicles don't have so many tricks these days, they are nothing more than ice cubes made of sugar water and some coloring, and ice cream is a high-end product that can only be sold in big cities, but everyone eats it with relish - the key is to eat it cool on a hot day to quench your thirst.
"Qiu'er, come, hurry up and drink." The lame man held a small bowl and said lovingly to his daughter. But Wu Tian and his gang just finished buying other people's popsicles, and some of the molten sugar water of popsicles in the thermos bucket was poured for their daughter to drink.
Wu Tian watched the little girl holding a small bowl with a smile on her face, taking a small sip of sugar water, and couldn't help but swallow and spit - when we were young in our previous lives, we liked to deliberately put the popsicle in the bowl to melt, and drinking the sweet ice water was much more pleasant than biting into the ice cubes.
"Little brother, do you want to drink? If you don't think your sister has drunk it, I'll give you these drinks, okay? The little girl was very eye-catching, and immediately saw the "desire" in Wu Tian's eyes, and immediately said with a smile.
Wu Tian nodded hurriedly, took the small bowl, and handed the popsicle he had bitten into to the little girl, and said, "Sister, let's change it." ”
"No, my sister doesn't eat it, it's all yours." The little girl smiled sweetly.
"Does my sister think I've eaten it?" Wu Tian stared at a pair of "innocent" big eyes and said.
"Ah, no......" the little girl said a little embarrassed.
"Well, then ...... like this," Wu Tian put the popsicle in the bowl and said, "Wait for the water, let's take a bite each, okay?" ”
The little girl nodded with a smile, but Wu Tian looked at the sweet smiling face of the little girl, and thought very evilly-is this considered an exchange of "body fluids"? Well, with this girl's pretty face at a young age, she is definitely qualified to "bring disaster to the country and the people" when she grows up......
Where are the two villains muttering, but the adults have another topic, Wu Jianmin's greatest concern is, of course, to ask the "boss" who is setting up a stall next to the market, how much is the price of coal in the market now, and as he was talking, he heard someone outside the shed shouting: "Cripple Lin, come and get a popsicle!" ”
When the little girl heard this voice, her face changed slightly, and she quickly looked at her father. "Lin Cripple" also changed his face, forced out a smile, stood up, and smiled dryly at the few outside: "I'm sorry, the popsicles are sold out......"
"What? I just wanted to eat a popsicle and you sold out of Tema? ”
Outside the shed were four young men, all of them hanging and dancing, and they were not good birds at first glance, and one of the first guys stared at a pair of triangular eyes and shouted at Lin Cripple.
"It's really sold out, I don't believe it, take a look......" Lin Cripple hurriedly unscrewed the thermos bucket and gestured to those people.
"Motor!" The one at the head spat and foamed at the mouth, people didn't give face, they really didn't have it, and the fire was not in a rut. But this one didn't leave, and shouted, "Get me the big front door!" ”
Lin Cripple's face suddenly distorted.
"What? Don't give? The one shouted loudly and slapped on the small wooden cabinet, but he didn't want the small wooden cabinet to be a little rotten in the wind and sun, and he slapped it and scattered, and the thermos bucket on it fell to the ground with a "snap".
Lin Cripple immediately didn't care about the cigarette cabinet, and hurriedly bent down to pick up the ice bucket, and his daughter had already pounced, hugged the ice bucket and handed it to her father, but the tears flowed down first, but the inner tank inside had already been shattered.
Although speaking of which, a liner is not worth a few dollars, but for the father and daughter who can only earn a penny by selling a popsicle, I am afraid that it is also a big object - this is a livelihood tool for people to make money and eat.
Looking at those hooligans again, there was no guilt, the guy who smashed the cabinet actually stretched out the slap and shouted happily: "Hey, brothers, do you see, my iron sand palm has been practiced!" ”
A group of younger brothers echoed it, touting how the boss's miraculous skills were in the world.
"Okay, Cripple Lin, brother is happy today, I don't want you to be filial, Ha Lu Ha ......" The leader was flattered, and immediately raised his feet and was about to leave.
"Stop! You pay us for the thermos! Suddenly, the little girl Lin Qiu'er shouted, Lin Cripple hurried to pull her daughter, but the little girl was stubbornly crying, stiff her neck and glared at the hooligan leader.
"Huh?" When the hooligan head heard this, he turned his head back, stared at Lin Qiu'er, and suddenly said with a big smile, "Qiu'er's girl has grown up, Ha Luha, it's good, it's good enough, it's delicious......"
The hooligan leader said with a lewd smile on his face, raised his hand to pinch the little girl's face, but he didn't want to suddenly splash a stream of ice water on his face, just a spirit, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his crotch, and he didn't have time to exhale the pain, so he reflexively covered his crotch with his hands, and his body shrank into a shrimp shape and fell on the broken glass ballast of the insulation bucket in that place.
The remaining three little hooligans were all stunned, why did the boss fall to the ground inexplicably? It wasn't until the boss fell to the ground for a long time that they realized that they were afraid that the boss was overturned by that little kid - it was really Wu Tian's small size, and they were blocked by the boss at the beginning, and they couldn't see Wu Tian at all.
"Maragobi's!" A little hooligan immediately rushed towards Wu Tian, wanting to help the boss take revenge, but before he could rush to the front, he was unguarded by the eldest brother Wu Zhonghao, who had already guarded Wu Tian's approach, and kicked him out of the way.
Another guy saw this situation, and immediately took out a knife from his waist, and shouted and shouted indiscriminately, but he might as well "snap", and a cowhide whip used to drive the carriage was firmly drawn on the back of his hand, and the knife was immediately taken out of his hand - Wu Jianmin is a professional handlebar type for driving big cars, and the head is not ordinary.
Where would the remaining little rascal dare to dig out another guy? Immediately helped the boss up and ran, and the other two also hurriedly followed, ran out of the road, and turned their heads and shouted loudly: "You're done, you've messed with the wrong person, there's a kind of you waiting here!" ”
