Chapter 71: Good Fruit

Although these words were heartwarming, they also made An Ning feel very uncomfortable. What kind of times are we now? I was reluctant to even buy an extra box of lunches, An Ning really felt sorry for Liu Guodong, and let her eat a box lunch alone, watching Liu Guodong eat steamed buns and pickles, I really couldn't swallow it.

Liu Guodong also understood Su Ran's inner feelings, pushed the lunch box in front of her, handed the chopsticks to her hand, and lowered his voice to persuade: "In the early years, I was all bran noodles at home, and even nests were rare things, and now I can eat big white noodles and white heads, how good!" Eat it! ”

"Then I'll eat steamed buns with you." An Ning pushed the lunch box aside, but was pushed back by Liu Guodong.

Liu Guodong looked at her and said commandingly: "You are my daughter-in-law, I have no ability, I used to make you suffer too much." Now that you are away from home, how can I be willing to let you suffer and suffer with you? Don't be tough, buy everything, it's so expensive, it's a waste if you don't eat it. ”

An Ning looked at Liu Guodong, his eyes were full of doting and distress for her. An Ning's heart softened, and for a while she felt that her crossing was simply the right one, and she was lucky to be the daughter-in-law of such a loving and righteous man.

As soon as the words fell, the old man with a straw hat next to him handed over four peaches, and said with a smile to Liu Guodong: "Eat a few peaches!" Change your appetite. ”

The old man looked very simple, and his smile was very gentle.

Liu Guodong said embarrassedly: "No need, thank you." The moment he turned his head, he saw that the old man was holding a nest head in his hand, which had already been half gnawed, and it looked hard and hard, and the pieces fell to the ground.

Liu Guodong frowned slightly, now that he can eat white-flour steamed buns, he is really a very happy life.

The old man smiled again, didn't say much, and put the four peaches on the table in front of Liu Guodong.

Liu Guodong took out two steamed buns from his bag, handed them to the old man, and said, "Uncle, then I'll exchange the steamed buns for your peaches!" ”

The old man waved his hand again and again and explained, "No, no, I brought something to eat." I gave you peaches, but I didn't think about your steamed buns. ”

"I know." Liu Guodong also smiled at the old man: "It's time for the two of us to change." Liu Guodong continued to stuff the steamed buns into the old man's hands.

The aisle was too crowded, and the old man sat in the open space under Liu Guodong's seat, next to him was a big bag, which was full of sacks of peaches, and there were other people next to him, as well as other luggage, and the old man could only bend his legs when he was squeezed.

couldn't refuse, the old man could only smile awkwardly: "Look at this." ”

Liu Guodong just smiled slightly and didn't say anything more. After eating, Liu Guodong went to throw out the garbage, took two peaches to wash them by the way, squeezed through the crowd, and came and went.

When he came back, he handed one to An Ning, and An Ning looked at the big and red peach, and it was a good fruit at first glance. But An Ning has a problem, she can't eat the skin of peaches, even if she washes them, but the peach hair will make her allergic, and there are small bumps around her mouth, which are itching terribly.

Liu Guodong looked at An Ning in embarrassment, then looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?" Don't like to eat? ”

"Not really." An Ning responded a little embarrassed, but she loves to eat peaches, when she was a child, her mother peeled her skin and then gave it to her, and this habit was formed over time, friends said that she was hypocritical, but no one knew how uncomfortable she was when she was allergic.

Liu Guodong looked at An Ning's eyes, and seemed to understand in an instant, so he peeled off the skin on the peach. The peach is semi-soft but not hard, and the skin is particularly easy to peel.

The smooth peach was placed in front of An Ning, and An Ning couldn't control the urge to take a bite. She doesn't seem to have eaten fruit once since she was reborn! Even vegetables, cabbage and radish are the most eaten.

An Ning knows that this is the normal life of the Zhuang family in this era, but in the post-modern society, she is used to living in Anning, she is used to eating all kinds of fruits and vegetables, adapting to the life of changing dishes for meals, and having meat for a while.

An Ning took the peach and took a bite, his mouth full of peach juice, juicy and sweet. An Ning looked at Liu Guodong and smiled slightly: "It's delicious." "The most important thing is that this peach is peeled by Liu Guodong, this man is really considerate, as long as she looks at her, he has fully understood what she thinks.

Liu Guodong saw that An Ning loved to eat, and he was happy in his heart. I exchanged two steamed buns for four peaches, which is also worth it. Along the way, they didn't bring anything but some dry food, just so that when they came back, they could have more things to spare. If you are thirsty on the road, this peach can also quench your thirst.

Liu Guodong thought to himself, since An Ning loves to eat, it is better to buy a few more with the old man, so he said to the old man: "Uncle, I see that you have brought a big bag of peaches, can I buy you a few more?" ”

When the old man heard Liu Guodong say this, he was embarrassed, and took out five or six peaches from the mouth of the sack and handed them to Liu Guodong, saying, "What to buy or not, if you like to eat, I will give you a few more!" ”

"That's not going to work!" Liu Guodong said, and he was about to take out the money from his pocket.

The old man twisted his body, pressed Liu Guodong's hand, and said to him: "Don't dig it, young man, if you say it's for you, it's for you." These peaches are not worth much, and they are not rare in our great ravines, and they have fallen into an orchard. I was really distressed to see it, so I picked some. ”

Liu Guodong didn't want to shirk too much, so he happily accepted it, the old man was good, and the two chatted when they were bored: "Uncle, you said that your peaches are wasted, why don't you sell them?" ”

"What are you selling!" The old man said helplessly: "In the big ravine, it is difficult to get out of the mountain, and the manpower can't resist it, even if you resist, you can only carry a bag of people, and when you go out of the mountain and go to the county seat, the peaches will be soft and rotten, and you can't buy a few dollars." After a long time, no one will bother with those efforts. ”

Liu Guodong listened to the old man's narration, and he was really distressed. Such a good fruit was wasted.

And An Ning sat on the side, also full of emotion. Now in this era, we are all poor, not to mention in this big ravine, the transportation is really underdeveloped, and we all rely on our legs to go out, and we all rely on labor to work. I'm afraid that in that big ravine, there is not even a bicycle, and it is really a bit wishful thinking to rely on peaches to make money.

The old man shook his head helplessly and said, "I feel sorry for these good fruits, the fruits are sweet and delicious when poured out of the mountain spring water." This is not far from my daughter's marriage, I didn't come when I gave birth, I came to see when the child was over the first birthday, the family was poor, and there was nothing to bring, so I picked this bag of peaches for her, and it was not empty-handed! ”

When the old man said this, he had a lot of sadness in his heart, and the corners of his eyes also revealed a little helplessness.
