Chapter 282: The Shop in the Corner
"Recuperate here, and wait for me to take you later, okay?" She didn't know if it could hear it, so she just said it to herself, making a little goodbye.
But the little one didn't seem to hear her, just nestled peacefully on the soft cushion and slept soundly.
"Forget it, you don't understand, why am I still talking to you so much?" She sighed.
Coming out of the pet store, Ye Tong took a taxi to the paint shop before, and it was a coincidence that this place was not far from Xington, she planned to buy some paints and go home later.
took out her phone and looked at the text message, but there was still no reply, but she thought about it and didn't bother, and when the time came, it was not impossible for him to talk about the bag that was thrown at him.
As soon as she walked into the shopping street, she was a little confused, after all, such a lively feeling looked more prosperous than the night market at night, squeezing into the crowded crowd, looking at the feeling of students all around, Ye Tong always felt that she would give herself the illusion of blending in.
However, she knew very well that there was no memory of the school in her mind, not even fragments, which was the strangest thing.
It should be the kind of place where the shopping street is, and it is near the university, so now the business is so good, after she passed by the shops selling snacks in front of her, she only saw a larger shop inside, and saw four big characters of painting utensils in the distance.
Ye Tong didn't expect it to be so far, she looked at the sign in front of her, and felt that it was worth it.
However, as soon as she walked in, she saw a mother and son eating at a small table over there, and she didn't seem to react when she walked in, but heard the sound of complaining.
"I said it earlier, right? Selling these things is expensive, will anyone buy them, just you and your dead ghost father, guarding this store every day, and they are about to make ends meet......" It should be the boy's mother who spoke, her hair is a little gray, but she is full of energy.
Ye Tong couldn't help frowning, she looked at the paints in front of her and some other painting papers and brushes, which looked very neat and there were no traces of ash, and she could see that the master took care of it.
But when she walked in like this, it was a quarrel, and she only felt a little noisy.
I heard the boy's unconvinced voice from over there, saying: "This was originally left by my father, this is the only thing he left, I want to keep them, and I will work hard......"
The boy's voice sounded hoarse during the voice change, but it was very firm.
"How many times have you said that? How much do you think it costs me to send you to an art major? You have to sell it, what are you going to do if you keep it? We are the only ones on this street who sell these painting tools, and we can't make money......"
One accusation after another fell in her ears, even if she didn't say it to her, Ye Tong still felt a burst of pressure, but it was an unwilling feeling.
She looked at the rows of different colors of paint in front of her, and heard the young man's voice again.
"But, Mom, this store has been around for so many years, and someone around here bought it, didn't they? And Dad said it wasn't necessarily back......" He shook his head, but his voice weakened, as if he wasn't very convinced by the voice himself.
"You know what sounds good all day long, have you inherited your dead ghost dad at this point? I owe you a ......," his mother scolded in a bit of frustration.
Ye Tong looked at the black shadow on the wall over there, she took some paint and put it on the counter, and said to the two silent people over there: "Boss, how much are these?" ”
Her voice was crisp, as if it had broken the dead silence in an instant.
"It's coming, it's coming." The young man ran over quickly, turned his head and saw the beautiful woman standing in front of the counter, her face was a little red, and she coughed and said, "Is this all you want?" "Book every day
Ye Tong nodded, her afterglow fell on the small dining table, only to see that the plates on it were being taken away. There was a few crisp sounds of dishes colliding, along with the sound of running water, presumably washing dishes.
"Yes, by the way, do you have blue ink here, the older the better." Ye Tong thought for a moment and asked.
The young man on the other side was counting some other painting tools and other things at the bottom, and he looked up and repeated suspiciously, "Blue ink? ”
"yes, but I'm going to be older, yes?" She was incidentally lacking such, as a contingency.
However, after she returned to China, she found that there was even less such ink, and she thought that she might not be able to try her luck when she came to such a corner shop.
Ye Tong looked at the young man in front of her, she suddenly felt a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it.
I only heard a shout from behind: "Come and help when you are greeted from the front!" ”
"Wait, it's not ......," cried the boy loudly, and the voice sounded worse than before, like a duck's voice roaring in his ear.
However, she focused on the thick paper that had accumulated on the side, as if it could have been better.
"Is there an urgency? I'll take a look here first......" She's not in a hurry, after all, she's going to go shopping for a while and then go back, and by the way, you can bring some loot?
"It's okay, it's okay, you want blue ink, right? I have some here that you need, and some that are older, and the dust is about to accumulate in the corner......" The young man enthusiastically put the original paint in a bag, turned and went to the warehouse.
I only saw that his thin back was under the sweater, and he couldn't cover his thin shoulder blades at all, and he looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he looked quite sensible, and he should also be a son inheriting his father's business.
Hearing it, the young man in front of him should also value this shop very much, even if the people around him disagree.
As soon as she walked in, she smelled a smell of paper made from trees, and a smell of paint that didn't smell particularly good, but mixed together was the most familiar smell to her, and after a long time of contact, it gave birth to a sense of intimacy.
There are inferior ones, and there are better ones. However, the price of her appearance is not set high, and it is even much cheaper than other places.
But then I thought about it, and the location was next to the school, which was a relief.
She looked back and forth at the other things here, and took a few of them, if it wasn't for the fact that she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get them back later, she probably would continue.
But now that she came alone, she couldn't help it after thinking about it.
"Brought it, these are all of them, you can call to see, some of the outside labels have fallen off, so it will be a little troublesome." He held some and put them on the table, scratching his head a little embarrassed.
"There are so many, then I can open it and ......" Ye Tong couldn't help but open her mouth slightly in surprise, she originally wanted to find one or two bottles, but she didn't expect that there were so many in stock.
Especially this kind of discontinued for many years, but it appears here.
The boy seemed to see her doubts and explained: "These things were brought back by my family a long time ago, and no one used them, so they put them away and have been until now. ”
Hearing this, she nodded knowingly and said, "So that's the case, so it should be considered an antique, right?" ”
