Chapter 5: Sugar Man and Bicycle

"Little couples, where is there a time when they don't quarrel. Now that you have reconciled, I am happy to see the old man. Wang Lao happily let the two of them into the car, sat on the front of the ox cart, and chattered with concern.

Mu Chun touched his nose a little embarrassed, but he couldn't refute anything in front of outsiders. After all, in everyone's eyes now, she Mu Chun is Xie Wenchang's real wife.

Xie Wenchang seemed to understand what she was thinking, and turned his head to look at her, his expression faint.

"Ahem......" Mu Chun coughed lightly in embarrassment, and looked away from him.

The ox cart staggered along the country road, and gradually turned onto the mountain road, which was even more rugged, making the ox cart, which was not spacious enough, sway.

A bump, the wheels got stuck on a stone, and the two people in the car groaned in unison. Especially Mu Chun, who is petite, stumbled in the turmoil, and was about to fall down unsteadily.

She didn't have a close encounter with the hard plank, but fell into a wide and gentle embrace.

As soon as Xie Wenchang stretched out his hand, he hugged the petite girl into his arms, and his nose was full of the soft fragrance of the girl. For a while, he was a little upset.

"You ......," Mu Chun's ears glowed with a tempting and thought-provoking red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After all, she lived for 20 years in vain in her last life, and she has been living in the maternal fetus, which is the first time she has had close contact with a man with a foreign surname.

A hint of panic flashed in Xie Wenchang's warm eyes, and he hurriedly put Mu Chun down and sat down on the side, quite wanting to cover it up.

He always felt that his little wife was different from before, but if he wanted him to say a thing or two, he would be full of money in vain.

"You sit better." It took him a long time before he said such a sentence.

"It's an accident...... After this incident, Mu Chun also felt strange in his heart, so he had to talk about him left and right, "Actually, I am very ...... steadily"

Xie Wenchang's eyes lit up with a hint of urgency, and he said seemingly casually: "Last time you brushed pigs by the stream, I saw it." If you can be called steady, there will be no weak elm woman in these ten miles and eight towns. ”

Elm! He said he was an elm!

Mu Chun's face turned a little pink, and she felt that she was very smart. This person is obviously a student, why can't he make girls happy so much?

With this thought in her mind, she quickly suppressed it again.

What coaxes or can't be happy, she and him should have been innocent in the first place. Even if the two threads are intertwined now, there will always be a time when they will be separated.

"Wenchang, Wenchang's daughter-in-law. The market is in front, there are a lot of people, and it is not convenient for the little old man's ox cart to enter, so you can go by yourself, okay? Wang Laole's voice sounded in time outside.

Mu Chun breathed a sigh of relief, watched Xie Wenchang get out of the car first, and hurriedly followed.

Xie Wenchang gave Wang Lao a handful of gross tickets, Wang Lao dipped his spit and counted two, then shook his head in surprise and said: "I can't do it, this is a lot more......"

"Elder Wang, don't shirk it." Xie Wenchang's eyes were clear, and he said gently, "Last time, my negligence almost caused a big mistake, and my wife was saved thanks to Wang Lao's kindness." ”

It was for this. Mu Chun and Wang Lao suddenly realized at the same time, and Mu Chun's heart rose at the same time with a faint strangeness.

Could it be that this man genuinely cares about himself?

Wang Lao came back to his senses and saw that Xie Wenchang and his wife had already walked away one after another.

He looked down at the ticket in his hand again, this time the harvest was worth five or six days of going back and forth on weekdays, "What a kind person......

The bazaar is indeed as Wang Lao said, lively, crowded, chickens, ducks, geese, even cows, horses, pigs and other livestock squeak, accompanied by the sound of people shouting and neighing, almost making people feel like falling into chaos.

Mu Chun looked left and right, looking very curious.

In her previous life, she was a standard rich second generation, and she might not even be able to look at the things of the Golden Eagle Mall, and she had never been to a place like the market. And in the past in this life, Mu Chun was a timid and fearful master, and he couldn't wait to leave the door every day.

Therefore, whether it is in the past life or in this life, Mu Chun can be regarded as an eye-opener.

"You like it?" Seeing that Mu Chun lingered in front of a candy man's stall, Xie Wenchang asked softly.

"Yes, I like it." Mu Chun hesitated for a moment, then smiled truthfully.

This maltose is burned sweet but not greasy, the fragrance comes out, and the sugar man also pinchs it well, and it is a handicraft that belongs to this era at a glance. Such freshness immediately attracted Mu Chun.

Mu Chun regretted a little as soon as she spoke, she remembered that even food and clothing were a problem in this barren mountain village, but she still thought about buying candy people, wouldn't she be scolded?

"Okay, boss, get us the biggest one." Unexpectedly, Xie Wenchang agreed without hesitation.

Until the sugar man pinched it in his hand, Mu Chun still couldn't come back to his senses.

"Hey, actually...... I'm going to buy a bicycle soon, the cost is already so big today, you don't have to ......" Mu Chun hesitated for a moment, and called out to Xie Wenchang, who walked forward after paying the money.

Xie Wenchang paused, "Let's go, we have to go back before the sun goes down." ”

Mu Chun had no choice but to swallow his words back.

In the bazaar, the rarest thing is not clocks, jewelry, and other foreign things, but bicycles. Owning a bicycle in the 80s is just as much like driving a Maserati on the road in the 21st century.

Therefore, in front of the bicycle shop, as usual, there are many farmers who come to watch and marvel, but there are very few people who actually buy it.

Xie Wenchang whispered "Excuse me" all the way, and squeezed Mu Chun behind him all the way into the crowd. In the end, Mu Chun was still fine, and Xie Wenchang's clothes had been squeezed a little wrinkled by the enthusiastic crowd.

"How much does this phoenix cost?" He took Mu Chun to stand in front of a new row of bicycles, pointed to a red Phoenix brand bicycle and asked.

The clerk had been drowsy for a long time, and this time he finally ran into a question about the price, and hurriedly laughed: "One hundred and eighty yuan." ”

"One hundred and eighteen!" Before the main owner could say anything, the men and women behind him who were watching the excitement shouted as if they had seen ghosts.

Mu Chun's eyes widened in surprise. She knew that bikes were expensive, but she didn't know that they were so expensive.

In the 80s, the middle class in the city only received 40 yuan a month, and the rural farmers only paid more than a dozen yuan a month, and a bicycle actually asked for a year's salary!

Mu Chun pulled Xie Wenchang's sleeve slightly, smacking his tongue secretly.
