Chapter 45 Three Feet Above the Head (Forty-Five) Peach Blossom Branch
Zheng Yi was preparing for the evening, and from time to time Meng Xinyao helped him start, while Xiao Jing squatted in the bedroom because of excitement and became a full-time audience.
Mo Chen suddenly felt a kind of helplessness to be left out, it seemed that Zheng Yi didn't need any help from a big man like him, he walked to the door by himself, and said to the two behind him, "I'll cook, how about noodles for breakfast?" ”
Coincidentally, while Mo Chen was speaking, Zheng Yi was explaining to Meng Xinyao what pattern to draw on a piece of golden cloth with cinnabar.
Seeing that no one cared about him, Mo Chen glanced back, and the two of them who didn't hear him speak at all, he burst into a foul mouth.
"Sister Meng has already cooked the meal, she said that she was afraid that you would get up too late, and the food should be cold, so she deliberately stuffed it in the pot!" Xiao Jing said, squeezing her eyes at Mo Chen, as if she understood something.
Mo Chen looked at Meng Xinyao after hearing this, she was concentrating on following Zheng Yi's instructions and seriously hooking the brush. A wisp of green silk slid softly down her cheek, and she unintentionally raised her hand to pin the broken hair behind her ear.
At that moment, Mo Chen had an indescribable feeling that Meng Xinyao was born with a baby face, which made her sexy femininity particularly weak, and if she had to praise it, it had to be a cute word.
But this unintentional action made Mo Chen's heart couldn't help but be amazed......
"It's still best for Xiaojing, and I know where to tell my brother where to eat, and I will make a big contribution to you!" Mo Chen said, stretched out his index finger, and made a thumbs up on Xiao Jing's head in the air.
"That's it!"
Mo Chen walked into the kitchen slowly, and sure enough, in the rice cooker, he found the breakfast that Meng Xinyao left for him - a bowl of porridge, an egg, and four pies.
The whole morning was really a rare and clean leisure time for Mo Chen, but Zheng Yi seemed to be tired of him being lazy, so he had to arrange an errand for him.
When Mo Chen was already walking on the street, he couldn't wait to look up to the sky and scold for a while, in the north of the cold winter wax moon, Zheng Yi actually asked him to go out to buy or find peach blossom branches.
Peach Blossom Branch, as the name suggests, is to ask Mo Chen to find a branch with peach blossoms in full bloom, if it is spring, this is not a problem at all, but it is ......
Without spending money to find it, it must be impossible, after thinking about it, Mo Chen was quite smart, and went straight to the city's well-known flower, bird, fish and insect market.
The so-called market is actually a six-storey building, and the exterior decoration is not much different from ordinary shopping malls, the only difference is that it is more lively than some shopping malls.
Before he could walk in, Mo Chen was already blocked by the crowd of people who came and went.
Someone carried a birdcage and carefully guarded it in front of him, for fear of being squeezed by others.
Mo Chen squeezed through the crowd with difficulty, smoothly entered the market, and found the third floor of the main bonsai and flowers on the road guide sign at the door.
It's not like a supermarket, and every stall is full of colorful bonsai. For example, some common bamboos and beckoning chrysanthemums, Mo Chen barely knew them, and some of the others only thought they were good-looking, but they couldn't name them.
Mo Chen occasionally passed by the front of a few shops, and was stopped by the shopkeeper who solicited business at the door, asking him what he wanted to buy.
"Grandma's legs." Mo Chen secretly cursed Zheng Yi in his heart, deliberately causing him to become a "snake spirit disease" in the eyes of others.
It took more than an hour, but Mo Chen still didn't find any stores related to peach blossoms as he wished. Just when he decided to give up and go home, someone suddenly stopped him from behind.
"You want to buy a peach tree?"
Mo Chen turned around, a middle-aged woman said, Mo Chen nodded hesitantly, could it be that there are really merchants who sell peach blossoms in winter?
The woman was a little excited, it seemed that he was more anxious than Mo Chen, and the woman said, "I still have one in my house, which was booked by a foot spa shop before, and then people don't want it, if you can take it, I will make it cheaper for you." ”
Mo Chen followed the woman around, and actually led Mo Chen out of the gate of the market, and in the warehouse at the corner of the street, Mo Chen really saw a peach blossom tree in full bloom behind the many bonsai on display.
"Tree!?" Mo Chen couldn't help but be stunned, a peach tree one person high, with pink peach blossoms blooming on its branches.
The woman said a lot of things to Mo Chen, it was nothing more than that Mo Chen had picked up a big bargain this time, but Mo Chen didn't listen to it at all.
He hurriedly interrupted the woman's words, "I'm sorry, I just want one!" ”
“300!” The woman responded simply, causing Mo Chen to be stunned, he didn't expect the woman to quote the bid so quickly, as if she had been waiting for Mo Chen to say this.
"Just one branch! Isn't 300 too expensive? "I knew that the woman was robbing while the fire was burning, but Mo Chen really needed this peach branch, so he had to bargain with her.
The woman smiled, but she also said bluntly, "In the whole market, there is such a peach tree in my house, if you want to buy it, only here is it." If you want, 300! Don't forget it. ”
"Hey!" Mo Chen couldn't help but be angry, what is this? The other party clearly told you that I was hacking you, and you had to obey.
......
Half an hour later, Mo Chen returned home with a roll of newspapers, and as soon as he entered the house, Zheng Yi greeted him. He took the newspaper roll in Mo Chen's hand and gently opened a corner, revealing a peach blossom inside.
Zheng Yi smiled and praised: "I'm C! Okay, you! In this cold winter, you can really find Ao! I forgot what you said, it's really not good, which park you go to, you can use it by secretly picking a shriveled peach branch. ”
"Your uncle!" Mo Chen boiled his throat and pounced on Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi had already prepared, swooped into the bedroom, and pressed the door against it.
Zheng Yi shouted inside, "Who made you stupid, I don't know how to ask me~hahaha~~"
When everyone saw Mo Chen's posture, they knew that Mo Chen had taken great pains to go out this time. Meng Xinyao asked curiously, "How much money did you get?" ”
Mo Chen's face darkened, and he said depressedly, "I broke my mouth with the store, and I won the ..... for two hundred and fifty yuan."
...... The laughter floated in Mo Chen's home, and he didn't go for a long time......
In the evening, Gao Ming arrived as promised, but he couldn't see Xiao Jing. Gao Ming anxiously searched left and right, and Meng Xinyao asked Zheng Yi, "Why can't you let him see Xiao Jing like opening my eyes?" ”
"No way, who let them have blood." Zheng Yi shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
Ever since Gao Ming appeared at Mo Chen's house, Xiao Jing has been surrounded by him excitedly, blinking her eyes, and occasionally muttering, "This is my brother......"
And Gao Ming only vaguely heard one or two words from Xiao Jing, like the terminal signal of the mobile phone from time to time, Zheng Yi said that after a while, they will meet each other, and there is no need to rush for a while.
