Chapter 154
After hearing this, Wen Niang said; "It seems that this flower is not as good as he pretends, it's not simple!"
Jiang Bai said; "You're right, he also has a bodyguard, and he is said to be very skilled."
Jiang Bai said; "Tonight, Xiaoyue and I will go to meet that bodyguard, and you stay to take care of Sister Qiaofeng and the family."
Wen Niang said; "When are you going to take me out to see it?"
Jiang Bai said; "Your task now is to take care of Sister Qiaofeng, don't let her have any mistakes, and when we settle Sister Qiaofeng, I will take you out."
Wen Niang asked again; "What about a moment?"
Jiang Bai said; "After dawn, my Abba will come, and when the time comes, let Xiaoyue follow my Abba to sell fish, and you will stay in the back room to take care of Sister Qiaofeng, I am very sleepy, and I will not go out during the day without special circumstances. In addition, you tell Xiaoyue for a while, for some reason, after I disguised myself as someone else, I was very sleepy, and when I came back just now, I almost didn't fly, and I don't know why, you told Xiaoyue to be careful, and we will discuss something after dark. ”
As she spoke, Wen Niang watched Jiang Bai's eyelids droop, she hurriedly supported Jiang Bai, helped her to the bed in the back room, and after serving her to lie down, she watched for a long time before returning to the shop in front.
The sky is bright, the street is lively, buying, selling, starting a day's business, Xiaoyue is still a stout man, with bare chest hair, appeared in the store, that is, two days, the people in the street know that the guy in the Jiang Ji live fish shop is a stout man, do business, never care, only give more, never weigh less, and the boss, not only collect fish, but also go to the river to fish, is really a diligent person.
Of course, these evaluations are just the beginning, just this morning, Xiaoyue just got up, after he washed, opened the door, removed the window gate, cleaned the front of the store, and was just about to go to the road in front of the store to clean, but saw the uncle who opened the shrimp dumpling shop opposite came over, Xiaoyue took the broom, immediately stood up, and greeted with a smile; "Uncle, it's still early for you to get old!"
The old man who came over, in good spirits, with a red face, a short figure, a light gray kudzu linen gown, an apron tied outside, and thick-soled green cloth shoes, did not wait for Xiaoyue to say hello, and immediately said loudly; "Young man, it's early, I didn't expect that the young people at this time would be so diligent!"
Xiaoyue immediately said; "Uncle, you really praise people, like us who rely on hard work to eat, if you are not diligent, can you do that?"
The old man said with a smile; "Yes, we're all the same, we can't get up late," he asked busily again; "Where's your host, young man?"
Xiaoyue replied; "Before dawn, I went fishing in the river."
The old man immediately said; "That's the hard work, that's the hard work."
Xiaoyue replied; "Get used to it, get used to it, our boss has always been like this."
The old man said; "Young man, your boss will come back in a while, please give me a word, leave me two live saury, today is my wife's birthday, she likes to eat saury, especially fresh live saury."
Xiaoyue said; "Okay, I remember, as long as there is a live saury today, I will pick two big ones for you, if you don't catch them, it doesn't matter, I'll go to the river to collect fish in a while, and I'll definitely collect live saury for you."
The old man said; "That's a good feeling!"
After saying this, the old man took another half a small step in front of Xiaoyue, his face was almost on Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue had to take a half step back, thinking to herself, the old man in front of him must have something else to ask.
The sun is rising, the sun is shining, the trees on both sides of the road are verdant, there are not many people coming and going on the street, only occasionally a few early pedestrians with burdens and bamboo baskets hurrying by, and the people who sell fresh vegetables have not yet appeared, like the old man in front of Xiaoyue, who specializes in selling shrimp dumplings, will also have to stay for a while before there is a sale, so the old man is not in a hurry to return to his shop, but makes up half a step towards Xiaoyue.
The old man entered, Xiaoyue retreated, in the face of Xiaoyue's retreat, the old man was unaware, Xiaoyue knew that the old man had something to say in his heart, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, so he looked like this, sure enough, the old man looked at a few pedestrians on the street, and said without words; "Today, the weather is so nice, there is no wind and no rain."
Xiaoyue snored and said innocently; "Yes, uncle, it's a good day."
The old man lowered his voice, seemed very close, and continued; "Young man, we are considered fateful, we didn't recognize it before, but we became neighbors overnight, don't blame me for talking too much, I saw that the Guidong family quietly opened the fish shop, neither set off fireworks, nor did anyone come to Wishing you prosperity, but I didn't see anyone to make trouble, okay, really good."
"Troublemaker? Who is making trouble? ”
Seeing Xiaoyue's questioning look, coupled with that tone, the old man felt that something was wrong, so he immediately pulled the words back and said; "Ah, no, no, I'm nagging, I think you also know, like us who do small business, that's a small business, earn a small amount of money, rich people look down on it, but, there is such a kind of person, specifically staring at people like us, to put it in detail, I just opened a few days, but there are people who eat white food every day, we can't afford to offend!"
Hearing this, he seemed to understand the old man's intentions, and he said; "Uncle, we sell fresh fish from the river, and we haven't seen anyone who can eat live fish alive!"
The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said; "That's not what I mean, I mean, I mean, haven't there been street thugs or some other big guy asking you for fish these days?"
Xiaoyue replied; "Well, not yet, who knows what will happen in the future!"
At this time, an old lady came out of the shop opposite and shouted loudly; "Come back, old man, it's time to make a fire."
"Hey," the old man agreed, and hurriedly turned around, and asked before leaving; "Young man, what is your host's surname?"
Xiaoyue replied as agreed; "Our owner's surname is Jiang."
The old man asked again; "Young man, your surname!"
Xiaoyue replied immediately; "Don't be expensive, I don't want your surname to be white, just call me Bai Lao Er if you have something, I remember to leave you a live knifefish."
The old man was busy clenching his fists and arching his hands, proclaiming; "Wishing you prosperity, Wishing you prosperity," he continued; "Please tell me, brother, I invited a few people in the store to eat shrimp dumplings tonight, which is a little bit of my heart."
Xiaoyue hurriedly excused herself; "Uncle, we have received your old heart, I will definitely convey your kindness to our host, but our host will definitely not come, he, after selling the fish, we have to rush back to pack up the fishing gear, dry the fishing nets, and when he has time, we will definitely visit."
When the old man heard this, he wrinkled his sparse gray eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile; "As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, close neighbors are not as good as the opposite door, we live opposite each other, do business with the door, deserve, deserve, or, I will come back in the afternoon to invite, I will come again to please."
After speaking, the old man turned around and hobbled towards the other side of the road, seeing the old man bending over and hunchbacking, which made Xiaoyue suddenly think of the old father, although he was not as old as this old man, he was still in the prime of life, but he couldn't go home to see each other even though he was close at hand, it was really, sad. Thinking of this, Xiaoyue shouted at the old man; "Uncle, you don't have to come over in the afternoon, I'll go over and send you live saury, and by the way, I'll eat shrimp dumplings at your place."
Hearing Xiaoyue's shout, the old man immediately stopped and turned around and said; "Okay, okay, I'll go back and prepare, and by the way, I'll make you a few snacks with wine."
After speaking, the old man smiled, turned around and returned to his shop, and when there were more people on the street, Jiang Bai Abba carried a load of live fish and walked into the store, Xiaoyue hurriedly stepped forward, and the two of them began to get busy, taking advantage of the fact that they had not yet bought the fish, Jiang Bai Abba secretly asked Xiaoyue; "Jiang Bai, why haven't you seen others?"
Xiaoyue was afraid that telling the truth would cause Abba's concern, so she lied and said; "Sister Jiang Bai's body is uncomfortable, and she is still resting in the back, anyway, the two of us can be busy, so don't call him."
Abba muttered quietly; "This lazy girl."
Xiaoyue was busy diverting Abba's attention and told the old man opposite that he wanted to buy live saury and invite him to eat shrimp dumplings in the afternoon. After hearing this, Abba Jiang Bai immediately said; "It just so happened that I caught a few saury fish, and you sent it to the old man after a while, don't charge money, we don't eat shrimp dumplings, the old man and his mother see that they are both old and rare people, it's not easy, we want to take care of them more in the future."
At this time, footsteps sounded outside the door, and the guests began to patronize, and Xiaoyue and Jiang Bai Abba were busy. When the live fish were sold, seeing Jiang Bai's Abba carrying the burden and carrying the fish basket away, Xiaoyue took two live saury fish and sent them to the old man who opened a shrimp dumpling shop opposite, and said to the old man; "Our host congratulates my mother-in-law on her blessings such as the East China Sea, Shoubi Nanshan, and the owner has an urgent matter at home for a while, and I ask the uncle to forgive me."
After speaking, Xiaoyue took advantage of the old man's inattention, threw down ten money, found an excuse to leave the shrimp dumpling shop, and returned to the live fish shop, at this time, Jiang Bai had already woken up, was sitting in front and waiting for Xiaoyue, and when he saw Xiaoyue coming back, he asked; "What are you doing?"
Xiaoyue told the old man who opened a shrimp dumpling shop opposite about giving live saury fish and the old man inviting them to eat shrimp dumplings, Jiang Bai said; "It's not easy for two old people, we must take care of the old man a few more times."
Xiaoyue said; "Yes, when I saw their two elders, I thought of my father and grandma again, and I don't know how their lives were, and I don't know if our rice shop has reopened."
