Chapter 7 Winter Vacation Chance Encounters

The days at school flew by, and before I knew it, it was time for the winter vacation.

Two days before the winter vacation, the teachers of all subjects were scrambling to assign the winter vacation homework, and the students shouted: Long live the vacation, and at the same time, they begged the teachers to assign as little homework as possible, so that they could have a happy and easy winter vacation.

After Li Huizi said goodbye to Li Xiao in the dormitory, she and Li Zhen flew to the gate of the school. Every time, Li Haoyu and Li Mingzhe each pushed a bicycle and waited for them at the school gate in advance, like a coachman.

Li Haoyu and Li Mingzhe bundled their luggage in three or five clicks according to their previous experience, and the four of them set off happily.

In the distance, their singing came "On the banyan tree by the pond, I know that the sound of summer, on the swing by the playground, only the butterfly rests on it, and the teacher's chalk on the blackboard is still desperately chattering and writing......"

--

It's been a while since the winter vacation, and Li Huizi sleeps until three poles a day at home, which is very boring.

Today is the last market before the Chinese New Year, and it is also the most lively, as long as everything you need for the New Year are sold. Li Huizi plans to follow her parents to the market today to prepare for the New Year.

"Mom, Dad, I'm going to the market with you." Li Huizi said coquettishly to her parents.

"Yes, my precious girl." Dad gently scratched Li Huizi's nose with his fingers and said to her with a smile.

"Hurry up and eat, and we'll go when we're done." Mom urged her father and daughter.

"Yes, Mother." After Li Huizi finished speaking with a mischievous smile, she lowered her head and began to eat.

Li Huizi has felt that her mother is very gentle since she was a child, and she always speaks softly to her or her father.

Especially Li Huizi, no matter what she has to do, her mother will always say: "My Huizi is amazing, and my mother believes that you will always do well." ”

Maybe it's because under such encouragement and such a loving family living environment since childhood, Li Huizi has created a particularly confident, cheerful and kind character since she was a child.

The family of three had breakfast and set off happily. Because the bazaar was in the middle of Li Huizi's house and school, they arrived at the bazaar in a short time.

"Wow, it's so spectacular!" Li Huizi shouted excitedly.

Usually, the street of this kilometer is about 20 meters wide, and two private cars driving side by side feel spacious. Now, two-thirds of the space has been taken up by various stalls on both sides of the street, leaving only a narrow passage in the middle for passers-by. Li Huizi walked in the aisle, and there was a sense of freshness for people to see people.

--

Look at! The beef was so fresh, the whole head was bloody and hanging upside down, still dripping bright red blood, and the boss was shouting for business.

There are so many kinds of vegetables, including green shiny little greens, chubby white radish, oversized Chinese cabbage, long pumpkins, and sweet and pink sweet potatoes in the stall owner's mouth. Li Huizi was fascinated by the scene in front of her.

"Mom, can I go shopping alone?" Li Huizi said to her mother with a smile.

"Okay, be careful yourself, don't run too far." Li Huizi's mother took out a hundred-yuan bill and handed it to Li Huizi, and said uneasily.

"Thank you, Mom, got it." After Li Huizi finished speaking, she disappeared without a trace.

Not far away, there was a burst of fragrance, and in front of Li Huizi's left hand was a seller selling fried buns and mutton soup.

"Boss, bring me six fried buns." Li Huizi said to the boss who sold fried buns while swallowing her saliva.

"Okay." As the boss spoke, he wrapped the fried buns that had just come out of the pot in a paper bag and handed them to Li Huizi.

Li Huizi took it and sniffed it, and then she took a big bite regardless of her image, and a sense of satisfaction instantly rushed to her heart.

"Rock sugar gourd."

Li Huizi saw that not far in front of her, there was a person holding a large grass and wood stick, which was filled with strings of rock sugar gourds made of hawthorn and yam beans. They are wrapped in a layer of sesame seeds, and they are all so dazzling that people salivate when they see them. Li Huizi couldn't help but exclaim happily. However, there were too many people in this market, and coupled with the miscellaneous noises, the vendors selling rock sugar gourds did not hear Li Huizi's cry at all.

"Rock sugar gourd, rock sugar gourd." Li Huizi shuttled quickly through the crowd of people, shouting loudly and chasing the vendors in front.

At this time, Xiao Chen was walking in front of the rock sugar gourd, and he suddenly heard a familiar voice and stopped. Looking back, I saw Li Huizi shuttling through the crowd at a glance.

Li Huizi's eyes were all focused on the body of the rock sugar gourd, where would she notice Xiao Chen who was staring at her next to her.

"Boss, please bring me two strings, a string of hawthorn and a string of yam beans." Li Huizi caught up with the vendor of the rock sugar gourd and said breathlessly.

"Yo, leap girl, what are you running so fast? I'll be selling on the market until I get it. The little boss is a 50-year-old grandfather, and he looked at Li Huizi distressed in his hometown dialect and said.

"Hey, hey." Li Huizi smiled embarrassedly.

The old man specially picked two strings of rock sugar gourds and gave them to Li Huizi.

"Thank you, grandpa." Li Huizi took it with a smile, and after giving the money to the old man, he couldn't help but start eating.

"Well, sweet and sour is the taste, I like it." She closed her eyes and enjoyed herself as she ate. I didn't notice it at all, and there was a pair of eyes next to her that had been staring at her since just now.

Xiao Chen originally wanted to walk over and scare Li Huizi, but he was afraid that the rock sugar gourd in Li Huizi's mouth would be the owner of her, so he wanted to wait for her to open her eyes before calling her.

Li Huizi opened her eyes, ate happily one by one, turned around and walked back.

"Li Huizi." Xiao Chen saw that she was about to go back, so he eagerly stopped her from behind.

When Li Huizi heard someone calling him, he looked back. I just saw Xiao Chen walking towards her.

She swallowed the rock sugar gourd in her mouth at once, and then, wiping her mouth with her hand, said with a smile: "Hi, Xiao Chen, what a coincidence." ”

"Are you here to stock up on New Year's goods or are you here to play?" Xiao Chen saw that Li Huizi had nothing in his hand except for two strings of rock sugar gourds, and asked curiously.

"I'm here to play, how about you?" Li Huizi regretted it after asking, and she saw Xiao Chen carrying vegetables in her hands at this time, and it was meat in advance.

"I followed my mother to prepare for the New Year." Xiao Chen replied seriously.

"I also came with my mom and my dad. By the way, do you want to eat rock sugar gourd?" As she spoke, Li Huizi handed Xiao Chen the rock sugar gourd of the yam beans that she had not bitten.

"Hehe, I don't eat, thank you." Xiao Chen said with his charming smile again.

"By the way, is your house right next to here?" Xiao Chen asked again.

"Well, yes, Xiao Li Zhuang, you know what?" Li Huizi looked at Xiao Chen and said.

"Is it north of the market?" Xiao Chen wondered.

"Well, yes." Li Huizi nodded affirmatively.

"My house is south of the market, and after our school, walk a mile south, and turn right." Xiao Chen looked at Li Huizi and seriously said the location of his home.

"Hehe, I know. Then I'm leaving, wishing you a happy new year in advance. Li Huizi said to Xiao Chen with a smile.

"Well, I wish you a happy new year in advance, and be careful on the way back." Xiao Chen said to Li Huizi with a thoughtful smile.

"Hmm." Li Huizi nodded, waved at Xiao Chen, and turned back to find her father and mother.

Xiao Chen watched Li Huizi's back become more and more blurred, smaller and smaller, and when it finally reached a point, he immediately turned around and walked back.
