Chapter 6 Rush to the Market

Su Mu kicked his feet, twisted the accelerator, and the electric car ran as soon as he slipped through the smoke. Although the weather is in summer, the morning sun is not too hot on people, and with the breeze whistling in the ears, the oncoming coolness makes people feel more and more energetic.

Zhang Han, who was sitting in the back row, gradually eased his nervous and scared emotions, opened his arms and closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the fresh smell of various flowers and plants in the early morning air.

Su Mu saw Zhang Han in the rearview mirror, just like when he was young, running into the distance carefree.

"Sit tight, it'll be cooler on the side of the road later."

Su Mu increased the throttle and wanted to reach the river beach as soon as possible.

It is a tributary of the Gan River, when he was a child, Su Mu often walked a kilometer to come here, followed the team of his friends, stepped on the soft and damp sand by the river to leave a tender footprint, and when he played until it was hot, he held up the cool river water with both hands to wash away the fatigue on his face.

Watching the sandbags piled up by his friends into various shapes, Su Mu also joined in this joy, this kind of life in childhood, Su Mu played all afternoon on his rest day.

"You'll love this place when you get there."

Su Mu kicked off his feet and stopped on the side of the road on the riverbank, slowly got out of the car and looked at Zhang Han and said.

"Aren't you going to the street to catch the market? Why did you stop here? ”

Zhang Han asked with a puzzled expression.

"You still have to rush to the market, and this is to let you see the good scenery."

Su Mu slowly walked to the side of the road, opening the entrance that had long been hidden by verdant branches with one hand, and countless memories flashed in his eyes.

"Wow! Is this a river? And the beach? There are also birds in the distance, this place is so beautiful. ”

Zhang Han looked at the birds that landed on the beach in the middle of the river and said in surprise, the early morning sun sprinkled on the river surface with a faint light, Su Mu carefully led Zhang Han to the river, telling the anecdotes of his childhood.

After some enjoyment, the two returned to the electric car and continued to rush to Huangdu Street, there were not many vehicles coming and going, but every acquaintance on the road would smile and say hello to each other, but the misunderstanding was always the same, and they would say a few words in the process of greeting:

"Go to the street to catch the market? Is it your girlfriend in the back? You look so beautiful, you kid is so blessed. ”

Su Mu could only smile awkwardly and explain every time he encountered this kind of greeting:

"No, it's just an ordinary friend, just coming to the countryside to play for a few days."

But when Zhang Han saw this, he hugged Su Mu's old waist more intimately every time, pouted and explained:

"He has a stupid mouth, and he doesn't dare to say it if he likes it."

"Huh? When did you like it again? I'll admit that I just had a crush on you, so I don't need to amplify our relationship so quickly. ”

Su Mu could only gently break free from his intimate actions to show his position, but every time he broke free, Zhang Han hugged him tighter, and Su Mu could only bite the bullet and speed up to the street market.

After about 20 minutes of riding, the two of them rode up a large slope to an embankment facing the river on three sides.

"Here, this is Huangdu Street."

Su Mu found a conspicuous place to park, although there were not many pedestrians on the road, but on this embankment road, there were a lot of pedestrians coming and going, presumably the villagers from the nearby villages gathered here in the cool morning.

Su Mu led Zhang Han through the crowded crowd and tried to keep a safe distance between friends, who knew that Zhang Han grabbed Su Mu's palm with one hand and said with a smile:

"If you go shopping, you have to look like you're shopping, and if you lose someone, you're going to feel guilty again."

After Su Mu was stunned, he looked at the endless flow of people, and did not resist for safety reasons, leading Zhang Han down a large slope into the market.

There are a lot of pedestrians who buy vegetables in the morning, but even if they are busy, they will eat a mouthful of crockpot soup and Nanchang mixed noodles, and the entrance has the best reputation, Su Mu deliberately chose a location close to the fan when he entered the door, and after taking a breath, he followed the boss:

"First put on two bottles of orange-flavored soda to quench your thirst, and then come a few old mixed noodles that are slightly spicy and don't want chopped green onions."

The boss was busy and instructed the men to greet the guests, and in less than three minutes, two bottles of cold soda and the tantalizing sauce mix were served.

"What is this? Why is there no soup in the powder, and there are so many seasonings. ”

Zhang Han took the soda and took a big sip, looked at the white porcelain bowl on the table and said suspiciously.

"This is a local specialty, the price is affordable and delicious, we Nanchang people have grown up eating this since childhood, and then there is crockpot soup, as long as these two things are in the stomach, ensure that the whole line of energy is full of energy for a day."

Su Mu is very confident when it comes to the food in his hometown, and he is not at all the shy young man who didn't dare to look at Zhang Han at the beginning.

"Really? But it smells pretty good, and it's worth a try. ”

After speaking, Zhang Han gently took a vermicelli sticks stained with sauce and put them in his mouth, his eyes lit up instantly, and he nodded again and again and said:

"It's delicious, I thought it was delicious with soup, but I didn't expect the dry noodles to be more delicious, with a salty aroma of soy sauce and the sweetness of dried radish."

Zhang Han was completely indulgent, took a big mouthful of mixed powder and sent it to his mouth, and was instantly choked and coughed and said:

"It's a little spicy, but it's delicious."

Su Mu looked at the greedy Zhang Han and couldn't help but laugh, took out a tissue and handed it to Zhang Han, Zhang Han also took the tissue and wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.

"Here, crockpot soup, an egg patty, a cuttlefish patty, and two bowls of home-made bean curd for the two of you to try, it's delicious."

The guy on the side enthusiastically brought a lot of food to the table, and the service attitude was difficult to pick.

"If it's spicy, drink egg meatloaf soup, it's best to drink this in the morning."

Su Mu gently pushed the crockpot soup in front of Zhang Han, Zhang Han picked up the soup spoon and looked at the crystal clear soup, scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth to try, and after tasting the taste as before, he also began to drink it in a big gulp, Su Mu took the white sugar and put it on the smooth bean curd to mash and stir, and then handed it to Zhang Han who was burping and said:

"Try this again, it's free, don't live up to the kindness of the store."

Zhang Han covered his belly and didn't resist, took the bean curd and tasted it, put down the spoon and drank the white bowl with a satisfied face, and after drinking, he looked at Su Mu ashamedly and asked softly:

"Isn't my food too ugly? But this stuff is so delicious that I can't help it, and I usually pay attention to grooming. ”

"It's okay, eating is a pleasure, as long as you're happy."

Su Mu said good things on his lips, but behind his back, he was thinking:

"Grooming? Pay attention to grooming, and you won't chase me barefoot in torn clothes for a few kilometers. ”

After the two of them were full, Su Mu forgot to bring a sack to buy vegetables, and then simply bought a small cart in the grocery store, Zhang Han saw this strange thing and naturally rushed to try it, Su Mu opened the way for it in front to prevent pedestrians from scratching, and after a long bargaining, the cart was gradually full.

After thinking about it, Su Mu remembered the fruit he wanted to bring to his sister-in-law, so he deliberately picked out a few boxes of fruits with slightly more expensive prices and exquisite packaging to carry in his hand.

In the end, it was time to buy clothes, Su Mu led Zhang Han to the only clothing store on the street that looked decently decorated, and was pulled in by an aunt with a matchmaker mole as soon as he entered the door. Obviously, judging from the extreme enthusiasm of the owner and the deserted environment of the store, it is estimated that the store has not opened for a long time.

Su Mu was caught off guard and was forcibly pulled by the aunt to choose clothes, Su Mu looked at the rows of men's clothes and said:

"I didn't buy it, she bought it."

Then he pointed to Zhang Han, who was carefully choosing men's clothes in the back.

"I'll just say, this girl is so handsome, she must be the young man's sweetheart, come, go inside and see if it's women's clothes."

The aunt's face changed very quickly, and after dropping Su Mu, she turned her head and pulled up the depths where Zhang Han had placed her women's clothes and walked away.

"Tell me which ones you like, your figure is also a living sign of our store when you wear it, and I guarantee to give you a preferential price."

The aunt carefully looked at Zhang Han's slender and beautiful figure and said with a smile.

Su Mu moved things to the store and followed, and when Zhang Han hesitated, Su Mu took a fancy to a light green long skirt at a glance, the style was generous, and the most important thing was to wear it conservatively, and not use a pin to buckle the leak on the chest.

Zhang Han wanted to refuse, but seeing Su Mu's kindness, he also smiled and responded:

"Okay, let's just wrap it up first."

After the boss wrapped the clothes, he led Zhang Han into a room full of underwear, Su Mu wanted to follow until he saw the hanging underwear and hurriedly flashed back, at this time Zhang Han turned around and smiled evilly:

"What? Come in if you want, and I'll show you the world. ”

"No, no, no, I didn't mean to, I'll go outside and calm down, and you call me after you change your clothes."

Su Mu's face suddenly turned red with shame, and he hurriedly took a few steps back and said hastily.

About ten minutes later, Zhang Han walked out in the conservative light green dress, shook his head and said with a smile:

"Is it pretty? You still have good eyesight, but you don't wear it very breathable. ”

"Breathable? Is it breathable to wear revealing? Girls should be reserved and pure. ”

Su Mu complained in his heart, but he was saying good things in his mouth:

"It's good-looking, why don't you buy another color according to the same style?".

Under Zhang Han's nod, the boss repacked a peach-colored dress, and after paying the money, the boss waved goodbye to the two, and as there were more and more things in his hands, Su Mu wanted to take his fellow countryman's three-wheeled motorcycle back.

After some inquiry, Su Mu finally carried the electric car and all the things he bought into the car, but when he heard that the owner of the tricycle still had something to do and couldn't set off for a while, Su Mu looked at the beads of sweat on Zhang Han's forehead and thought about taking her to the barber shop to enjoy it.
