Chapter 25 Little Wonton Orange Soda
"Look what this is," Guan Wei pointed to a book to show him.
"With this book, "Essence of Materia Medica", wouldn't it be okay to take it to the mountains to find medicine, it is written in such detail, and there are pictures."
Xie Qi flipped through it for a while, then turned the book to the last page, and after seeing the price at the back, he immediately put the book back in its place, pulled Guan Wei and said, "Let's go, we don't have money to buy it." ”
"How much is it?"
"Forty-six!"
All the money on the two of them added up to just over two yuan, and they really couldn't afford it.
The latest bus left at half past seven, and the two still had some time to stay in the city, Xie Mi suddenly became a little hungry for small wontons, wrapped in pork with a thin skin, and then put seaweed and shrimp skin, and chopped green onions, it was really delicious soup.
When she went into the city to read a book in Xinhua Bookstore, when she came out to hang out, she saw the wonton shop and went in to eat it once.
Xie Qi swallowed a little when he thought about it, and proposed: "Guan Wei, let's go eat small wontons!" I invite you. ”
Guan Wei hurriedly refused: "No, no, no, I invite you." ”
"I haven't even thanked you for saving me last time! I'll invite you this time! ”
The two entered a wonton shop together, and there were a total of eight long white tables in the store, each of which contained vinegar bottles, soy sauce bottles, oil chili noodles, dried chili noodles, salt and monosodium glutamate.
The owner of the store sat alone in front of the small table for a fee, wrapping wontons, and it felt like in a few minutes, a large stack of round and fragrant small wontons would be wrapped.
"The boss wants two bowls of ravioli."
The boss responded: "Do you want a big bowl or a small bowl!" ”
"One big and one small!" Xie Mi said.
Guan Wei hurriedly said: "You don't need two small bowls." ”
The boss took twenty small wontons from the bowl with a plate and boiled them in a pot of clear water, and then took out two bowls from under the stove to put the seasoning.
After the small wontons were all boiled and floated, they were divided into two bowls and fished up, "Your wontons are ready." ”
Guan Wei got up and carried the two bowls of wontons to the table, Xie Mi handed him chopsticks and a porcelain spoon, and the two of them ate the wontons with the heat emanating from the wonton soup.
After a while, the two of them ate the soup and wontons cleanly, and after Xie Mi was full, he gently patted his stomach a few times to feel the feeling of being full and warm.
"Let's go! Went back. ”
Coming out of the wonton shop a corner, there was a small shop, Guan Wei looked at the brightly colored orange soda inside and said, "Let's drink soda!" ”
"Okay!"
"The boss wants two bottles of orange soda."
Guan Wei handed a dollar to the boss, two cents a bottle of soda, but he had to press the bottle money of three cents, and he would return the money when the bottle was returned.
The boss took out two bottles of orange soda from the freezer, opened the caps and handed them to the two of them, and the crystal clear glass bottles kept bubbling one after another.
The two held the cold bottle and took a big sip of orange soda, Xie Qi drank the orange soda, but he missed the cold coke a little.
Without whispering, "If only there was a Coke to drink." ”
"What are you talking about?"
"It's nothing, I said let's drink it quickly!"
The two of them gulped a few sips of soda, handed the bottle to the boss, returned the six cents, and then walked quickly to the station to wait for the train.
After a busy day, the two of them were sleepy and tired, and they slept on the train several times before finally arriving at the platform where they took the train in the morning.
At this moment, the sun had already set, and only a red golden cloud was left, hanging in the place where it had just left, and the two of them hurried towards Xiaogou Mountain.
Guan Wei sent Xie Mi back first, at the door of Xie Mi's house, Liu Yinglan and Xie Shan had been waiting for him at the door, and when they saw the two of them coming back, their hearts were put down.
"Guan Wei, don't be in a hurry to leave, come to my house and sit down," Liu Yinglan beckoned him.
"Grandma, I'm not going, I'm going home soon."
"Okay, come to the house to play when you have time!"
"Okay."
"Our mountain goods are also sold out this time, so let's throw away the work in the fields tomorrow and go to the mountains to dig mountain goods!" Liu Yinglan said.
"Okay," Xie Shan said.
"Then I'll go too," Xie said.
"Since there is a road, let's hurry up and go to study, and I'll go with your grandmother about digging mountain goods."
"But I want to stay at home and help for a few days before I go!"
Liu Yinglan said: "No, no, you just go and study." ”
"Alright then!"
Xie Mi put on his schoolbag early the next morning, packed the hot meal last night, and a few magazines he borrowed from the teacher some time ago, put them in his schoolbag, and went to Jiahui's house first, "Jiahui, are you still going to study?" ”
Jiahui has been working at home for this time, and found that it is better to read, go to the classroom to sit and listen to the teacher's lectures, use the pen, write and write, not to mention it easily, and she can learn a lot of things, but her grandparents won't let her go!
She has to work at home from the moment she opens her eyes, washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, and then sending the cooked rice to the field for her grandparents to eat.
After they kicked Jiahui out for a while, they found that although she was an eyesore, she was a very useful laborer, so after taking her back, they squeezed her even harder.
It's like an old ox that doesn't feel sorry for its own ability to plow, even if it has exceeded its physical limit, it still keeps pumping with a whip, forcing it to plow.
It's like a child who doesn't care about his spinning top, and he keeps playing with it, and he can't wait for it to fall apart.
