Chapter Fifty-Six: What Something Was Wrong
Without any scruples, Li Guyu has already broken up with her family and broken off relations!
Li Guyu cooked the meal, because she was eating by herself, so she didn't do it very well, just when he was eating, a childish voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Sister, big sister, are you at home?" ”
When Li Guyu heard this voice, he immediately got up and went out. Seeing that the person who came turned out to be Yunyun, Li Guyu asked with some puzzlement, "It's Yunyun, what is the matter with you?" ”
Li Guyu still had unfinished food in his mouth, so he muttered unclear when he spoke. "Ah, sister, what did you say, can I go in first?" Yunyun obviously didn't hear Li Guyu's words clearly.
"Oh, yes, yes, you come in first!" Li Guyu stepped forward as he spoke, opened the door and let Yunyun in. "Yunyun, is there something you are here for?" At this time, Li Guyu had already swallowed all the food in his mouth. Then Li Guyu squatted down and went to the same height as Yunyun.
"That sister and my mother are seriously ill, I need some money, but I brought some fruit, can you buy my fruit?" Yunyun grabbed the hem of her dress with her hand, looking a little uneasy.
Li Guyu thought that anyway, most of her current preserved fruits had already been made, and there was no harm in collecting some more fruits and hoarding them at this time. "Of course, Yunyun, where's your fruit?" Yunyun carefully took out a few fruits from his pocket.
"Sister, I suddenly saw this fruit on the mountain, do you want to see if you want it?" Yunyun was holding a few figs in his hands, which were very large, and Li Guyu didn't expect that there were already figs on the mountain at this time. "Yes, of course Yunyun, where did you pick this from?"
Li Guyu just casually asked, where did Yunyun pick it from, but Yunyun's reaction was a little beyond her imagination, Yunyun didn't seem to plan to tell Li Guyu where her fruit came from, but looked entangled.
Li Guyu saw that Yunyun didn't want to say anything, so she didn't force Yunyun anymore, anyway, her fruit was not picked by herself, it was all purchased from other people, it didn't matter where the fruit came from, it was good to have it.
"It's okay Yunyun, didn't you say your mother was sick? Then I'll give you two cents for the fruit this time, you go and get the medicine for your mother first! Yunyun nodded, so he handed all the figs to Li Guyu.
Li Guyu took the fig in her hand, just now she just thought that this fig was not big, but now it doesn't look ordinarily big, it's as big as half of her palm.
Yunyun had two figs in each pocket. Yunyun took out all the figs and handed them to Li Guyu, who found that this little girl could hold ten fruits of this size. So Li Guyu went into the room and took two cents and handed it to Yunyun, but Yunyun found that he followed Li Guyu into the house.
Li Guyu took the money from the bedside, and when he turned around and wanted to go out and hand it to Yunyun, he found that Yunyun followed him in, and Yunyun stood at the dining table and stared at Li Guyu's food until he swallowed his saliva.
Li Guyu seemed to suddenly notice something, and she said to Yunyun. "Do you want to eat? Then why don't you finish eating with me before leaving! Li Guyu thought that there was nothing wrong with what he said, but she found that Yunyun seemed to suddenly have a hateful gaze looking at her.
"What's wrong with you? Yunyun? Li Guyu looked at the little girl in front of her with some puzzlement. But Yunyun just stared at her directly, without saying a word, and suddenly she stepped forward and snatched the two cents in Li Guyu's hand and rushed out of the door.
Li Guyu followed uneasily, and shouted at Yunyun, "Yunyun, run slowly, don't knock!" But when Yunyun heard Li Guyu's words, he ran faster and faster.
Soon Yunyun left Li Guyu's sight, Li Guyu was a little puzzled why Yun treated her like this, but she went back to the room, looked at the table full of food, and had no appetite.
So she packed up her meals and put them in the cupboard. When she was busy with all this, she suddenly remembered the ten figs. She looked at the figs in front of her and remembered a story she had heard when she had eaten her first fig in her previous life.
It is said that before every fig is ripe, a female bug will burrow into it to give birth, and if the bug is unlucky enough to burrow into the female's fig, then it is likely that it will not be able to come out.
When the fig grows to maturity, his corpse will be completely decomposed by the solution secreted by the fig. Become a part of the fig, the female fig will eventually grow into fruit, so why the fig is so sweet is because it has a small insect inside, silently paying its own nutrients.
Although the story sounds terrifying, the fruit of the fig is very seductive. And figs have a variety of effects, Li Guyu thought that although she was a little scared, but she still couldn't resist the deliciousness of figs, she picked a relatively small one and washed it with water, and then took a small bite.
The juice of the figs and the particles of the fruit inside instantly poured into Li Guyu's mouth. It's really a taste of memory. Li Guyu in the previous life, because when Zhang Jingnian first got married outside, he would always bring back some strange things to Li Guyu to make her happy.
Figs are one of them, but then this attitude changed, probably because Zhang Jingnian realized that even if he was not so good to Li Guyu, Li Guyu would not leave him, so he flattered Li Guyu in every possible way at the beginning, and then became indifferent. Even if he is a fool, he is so knowledgeable about the world.
When Li Guyu thought of this, the fruit in his mouth was no longer sweet. She gave up wanting to eat it again and put the fruit in the closet. Then set up the cauldron and prepare the preserved figs.
This amount of work kept her busy until the afternoon and evening. Li Guyu took out this morning's meal, put it in the pot, and ate it when it was hot. Li Guyu, who finished eating, was very tired, and fell asleep on the bed.
But it's not just herself who is tired like this, but also Wang Shufang. After Wang Shufang stole the certificate of the tailor shop from Li Guyu, she rushed to the county regardless of the pain in her body. I want to pick up the finished clothes. But the pain on her body was so heavy that the original one-hour journey turned into two hours.
When Wang Shufang dragged her heavy body to the tailor shop, the sharp-eyed tailor shop owner saw her from afar, so the owner of the tailor shop took out a broom from the back kitchen, and when Wang Shufang took it into his store, he said to Wang Shufang, "What are you doing again?" Get out of my shop, I'm going to beat you to death with a broom!" ”
Wang Shufang had been on a long journey and was already thirsty. Hearing the tailor shop owner say this, she was so angry that she didn't bother to say another word, so Wang Shufang took out the voucher for buying clothes from her pocket and threw it on the tailor shop owner.
He said in a hoarse tone to the owner of the tailor's shop. "Open your dog's eyes and see... Isn't this the proof of your store's opening? Is this how you treat customers in a century-old store? ”
The owner of the tailor shop was stunned by what Wang Shufang said, so he picked up the voucher from the ground, and saw that it was really issued by him, but the owner of the tailor shop still remembered that this ticket was issued to Li Guyu, not the old woman in front of him.
"This ticket is clearly not yours, I gave it to another little girl, why didn't you steal it here?" The owner of the tailor shop looked at this ticket, and when he looked up at Wang Shufang again, his eyes had changed. It seems that Wang Shufang is the thief who is beaten by everyone.
"Phew! I said it all, that little girl is my daughter, just go home with me angry and what I want, it's not a matter of words! Now go and pour me a glass of water. I can keep you in the past, or I will see what your house is doing in all the people who are making trouble in the streets, and who will dare to do it to you. Wang Shufang forgot, she hadn't entered the door yet. Just here yelling at the owner of the tailor shop, no one would be willing to pour her a glass of water.
The owner of the tailor shop was also afraid of gossip, so he took the voucher in his hand and turned around and entered the tailor shop. Wang Shufang saw the boss enter the store, and she went in with her. Wang Shufang's legs were very tired when she walked, and she wanted to sit down when she saw the stool, but as soon as she sat down, she let out a "whoop..." and ejected from the stool.
Because the pain of the twenty boards hitting her has not completely disappeared. As soon as the owner of the tailor shop came out with water, he heard Wang Shufang's scream, and he was so frightened that the bowl in his hand fell to the ground with a snap, the bowl shattered, and the water was spilled.
Wang Shufang's already dry throat seemed to be even drier when she saw who spilled it on the ground, and she said to the shopkeeper in a hoarse voice, "What are you doing!" Go pour me another bowl of water! ”
How could the shopkeeper be instructed by her like this? "I'm sorry, this is the only bowl in the shop, and now the bowl is broken because the sound you just yelled scared me, you have to accompany me with a bowl first, and I can pour you a bowl of water again." Wang Shufang was even more angry when she heard this, although she really wanted to take out the money to smash it in the face of the shopkeeper, but where did she have the money to pay for a bowl now?
She could only puff up and say, "Then go and quickly take out the clothes for me, I won't drink anymore!" Wang Shufang felt that she had made a concession now, and the shopkeeper should go down her steps. But where is the owner of the tailor shop who is so kind-hearted? Wang Shufang couldn't get off the stage on the street just now, so when outsiders couldn't see it in the store, how could he let Wang Shufang take away the clothes so calmly?
