Chapter 3 Brother, You Will Grow Taller

In the wet market.

All kinds of cries are endless.

"Boss, come with a pound of cabbage."

"what's up, are your greens made of gold or planted directly on gold?"

"Where are there any vegetables now, these are all greenhouse dishes."

"I'm sure I'm right, I've done your business so many times, I'll still lie to you."

"Do you want to love it?"

Lu You was holding several red and black plastic bags in his hands, and his eyes were looking around.

This world is very calm, there is no epidemic, and the economy is developing normally.

This is the conclusion he came to after a few laps in the market, combined with his own memory. This means that you don't have to worry about going out in the future, and you can walk around with confidence.

Lu You originally wanted to take off his mask to liberate himself, but the smell of the vegetable market was still a little unpleasant, so it was better to keep it as it was and continue to wear it.

Walking and walking, Lu You came to a shop selling fresh beef. The proprietress and the proprietress were busy, and there were a few customers around who were carefully selecting the beef, and from time to time they pressed their fingers.

Lu You glanced at the beef that was laid out, and was too lazy to look for it himself, so he asked, "Boss, is there still beef brisket for sale?" ”

……

The other side.

After finishing breakfast, Tang Wan and her mother Zhao Huijuan walked side by side towards the vegetable market.

As she walked, Tang Wan put her hand on Zhao Huijuan's arm.

I felt that my daughter seemed to have some intentions, so I asked: "I didn't get up until ten o'clock a few days ago, why did I get up so early today and come to buy groceries with me?" ”

"Really?" Tang Wan's face was not red and her heart was not beating: "It should be that I came to my relatives a few days ago, and I am not very energetic, so I will come to help if I am okay today." ”

"Or should it be? It's okay to lie to your teacher under this excuse. Still trying to lie to your mother? Zhao Huijuan directly pierced her little tricks.

"When do you know better than you, making ice cream, cold powder, and watermelon every day, and this is also called a relative?"

"Ouch~Mom~" Tang Wan shook Zhao Huijuan's arm and said coquettishly: "Is it really a relative, is this important?" The important thing is that I am here to accompany you to buy groceries. ”

Zhao Huijuan didn't eat her set, pushed her hand away, and said, "Come less, you say it quickly, what is the purpose of coming here." ”

"Ahem." Tang Wan stopped holding it now, and said, "Isn't it the 28th today." It is the day when the results of the high school entrance examination are released. ”

"So what?"

"I just thought about eating better at noon today and celebrating my good grades."

"Champagne in advance? Isn't the result notified by SMS after 12 noon? What if I fail the exam? Besides, didn't you just eat good a few days ago, and you still came today? ”

"My results, don't worry, I've never missed, it's definitely no problem. And the celebration that was given to my brother a few days ago is for me today, how can it be the same. ”

"Okay~" Tang Wan said while shaking her mother's hand.

Zhao Huijuan's goosebumps rose, and she quickly pulled her hand out of her daughter's arms: "How old is it, you still learn from children, don't you blush." ”

Tang Wan still wanted to do it again, but Zhao Huijuan couldn't stand it anymore, and avoided her daughter's hand again and again.

"Alright, when I'm scared of you. You say what you want to eat. Declare in advance, it can't be too expensive. ”

Tang Wan's eyes seemed to be flowing with brilliance, and she said excitedly: "I want to eat spiced beef offal." Hairy tripe, money tripe, beef tendon, beef intestines, as well as beef balls, tofu puffs, white radish, braised eggs! ”

"You can go to the stall opened by the family downstairs to buy the offal yourself, and I'll transfer it to them when I go back." Let's talk about it first, you have to go home and help deal with what you buy, don't go into the room as soon as you get home. ”

“OK!” Tang Wan gestured, and then walked briskly towards the depths of the market.

Looking at Tang Wan's figure walking away, Zhao Huijuan had a little headache, her own daughter, beautiful, sensible, with good figure and good grades, is just a little lazy at home, not in shape, and loves to eat.

According to the identifiers of each district, Tang Wan quickly found the stalls of her neighbors.

As soon as I got closer, I saw a young man wearing a mask and a little conspicuous, standing in front of the stall, carrying several black and red clinker bags in his hand, and I could roughly see that there was a bag of green onions, ginger and garlic, a bag of vegetables, and a white radish, and the others should be some meat, but the details are not clear.

The young man faced the stall, wearing a mask on his face, and the lack of light in the vegetable market, Tang Wan couldn't see the young man's face clearly.

This boy seems to be younger than me, and he has already gone out to buy groceries on his own, is there any difficulty?

The boy seemed to notice the girl's gaze, and slowly turned his head, and the two eyes converged in the air.

The young man's eyes were sparse, and his eyes were clean and translucent, like a windless lake, clear and quiet. Dress appropriately, and have a warm and peaceful temperament.

Even though the mask covered most of his face, Tang Wan still subconsciously felt that the true appearance of this boy behind the mask must be shocking, but his height was a little ungood, a little shorter than himself.

……

"Boss, do you have a brisket?"

The boss didn't seem to hear Lu You's words, and went about his own thing.

The proprietress raised her head and looked at Lu You, and when she saw his match, she felt a little strange in her heart.

"Yes, pretty boy, how much?"

"Hmm......" Lu You thought for a while and continued: "Come to a pound and a half of white brisket, you need more fascia, less meat, and then half a pound of breast meat, preferably a little thinner." ”

After listening to Lu You's words, the proprietress took a large piece of beef brisket and breast meat from the audience and placed them in front of the two.

After some discussion, each determined the desired part, and the proprietress said

"You wait a minute, the boss will quickly finish dealing with the things in hand, just two or three minutes."

Lu You nodded lightly, indicating that he understood. Just as he was thinking about some of the things he didn't have, he felt a gaze on him, and turned his head to look at where the gaze came from. Immediately after, a pair of bright and clear, jade-like eyes broke into his sight.

Baoyu's owner is a girl, with creamy skin, a tall figure, a ponytail combed behind her head, and a few strands of broken hair on both sides of her cheeks that are naturally scattered.

The face shape is a standard goose egg face, with a bit of baby fat. The forehead is smooth and full, and the eyebrows are like willow leaves, natural and clean. The eyes are slightly elongated, and the tails of the eyes are slightly drooping, as if with a hint of charm. Joan's nose is small and delicate, her rose-like bright red lips are just the right size, and her cheeks are as pink as peach blossoms.

The eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and the young face is childish, it's her!

Lu You lost his mind for a moment, and sighed in his heart. The girl in front of her is completely according to his aesthetics.

The two quickly withdrew their gazes.

It's not that Tang Wan doesn't like good-looking boys, it's just that now she wants to get the spiced beef offal at noon even more. No matter how good-looking a boy is, it is not as good as eating in one bite.

And Lu You sighed, but he didn't have other ideas. For him, it is enough to appreciate a girl who is too beautiful, just like the beauty of nature. Don't think too much, it's easy to be sentimental.

After staggering his gaze, Lu You continued to wait for his brisket and beef, while Tang Wan greeted him with a slightly excited tone, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Fang is good!" ”

When the proprietress saw the girl, she was surprised and said, "It's Wanwan." Why are you here to buy groceries today? Where's your mother? ”

"My mom was buying groceries elsewhere. I have a good thing to buy today, so I'm here to help get it. ”

"Good again? Your brother just took the top 10 exam in the province, what is it today? ”

"Today's high school entrance examination results are out, and the top ten in the city have been booked!"

"Awesome! Your brother and sister are good material for reading. Come, if you want to buy something today, Auntie will give you a discount, and it should be for you to celebrate. ”

"Thank you, Aunt Fang, then I'm welcome. I ordered tripe ......"

Well? Can I still get a discount on my high school entrance examination results?

Lu You, who was listening silently on the side, immediately spoke

"Boss, I also have results today, can you give me a discount?"

"You also have results? What grades? Final exams for junior high school? I don't think the exams have started in junior high school, right? Hearing the boy speak, Tang Wan asked curiously.

Lu You frowned, and said angrily: "Why do you talk and look like you?" Although you are taller than me, it doesn't mean that I am a junior high school student, right? Anyway, I also have 1.7 meters and 1.8 meters fast. ”

Tang Wan now thinks that this boy may even be a primary school student, exaggerated and hard-mouthed.

"I'm only 1.64 meters, you are not as tall as me, how dare you say that you are 1.7 meters?"

Lu You's pupils were shaken.

Isn't it the world getting higher? The price of my handsomeness is to exchange my height for it?

No wonder the shower is so hard to take off, no wonder the dust cover on the refrigerator is so hard to reach, it's actually me who has become shorter!

Lu You found it difficult to accept this fact, less than one meter six, as a boy, I am afraid that he will almost enter the range of disabilities.

Tang Wan saw the shocked and unacceptable expression on the young man's face, and hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, some boys develop late, they don't start to develop until high school, you still have a chance, don't worry too much." ”

Her words pierced Lu You's heart like a sharp knife.

"If you can talk, talk more."

Tang Wan didn't hear what was in the words, and then comforted: "My sister is already a quasi-high school student, it is normal to be taller than you, and there are a few boys in my junior high school class who are similar to you." Relax your brother, eat more, exercise more, and you can grow taller too. ”

Brother!?

Lu You suddenly had a myocardial infarction, and it was the first time that a person in his forties, who had been in his forties in his two lives, was called his younger brother by a female prospective high school student.

He said faintly: "Sister, is there a possibility, in fact, my younger brother is 15 years old, and today is the result of the high school entrance examination, and it may be your classmate in September?"

What Tang Wan wanted to say suddenly held back in her heart, and the whole person was embarrassed, and her eyes wandered around.

"Yes...... Is it? ”

The proprietress looked at the embarrassing atmosphere of the two, and hurriedly poked her husband with her hand.

The boss immediately opened his mouth to solve the siege: "Pretty boy, your brisket and beef have been cut, a total of 83, wipe a zero for you, 80 is good." Then put the bag in front of Lu You.

Lu You glanced at the boss, replied "thank you", then picked up the plastic bag, scanned the code, turned around and left without looking back.

Tang Wan looked at the young man in the distance and muttered in a low voice: "I'm wearing a mask, who can see what you look like." Buying a grocerie is still covered so tightly that you can't see the light? ”

……

Lu You left the vegetable market quickly, found his little electric donkey, put all kinds of fresh vegetables in his hand into the front basket, started the motor, and quickly left this sad place.

Being said to be small by a girl who matches his heart is even more uncomfortable than failing his previous life papers.
