Chapter 16: Buying glutinous rice and meeting Ren Tingting's cousin
Ren Tingting was still coquettish, and there was a knock on the door.
"It's you." Ren Tingting opened the door and saw Qiusheng.
After Qiusheng came in, he said: "I see that it is not early, hurry up and go to the rice shop to buy rice, my junior brother is not in a good state now, and the longer the time drags on, the worse it will be." ”
Ren Tingting said: "Okay, let's go now." ”
Ren Fa advised: "Don't delay outside for too long, come back early." ”
"Got it!"
Ren Tingting waved her hand and pulled Qiusheng out of the door.
"My dad is so verbose, I'm eighteen years old, and he's still a child."
Ren Tingting pouted.
"Even if you are eighty years old, in the eyes of your father, you are still a child."
"Hmph." Ren Tingting snorted coldly, "I studied abroad, my classmates are adults at the age of eighteen, and their parents won't care about them, no one is chattering in your ears every day, I don't know how happy I am." ”
"Adults have to pay for all their own expenses, including renting a house, paying utility bills, etc., you live at home, you don't have to worry about all expenses, your father also gives you pocket money from time to time, for fear that you will lack money to spend. Does this exist among your classmates abroad? ”
Ren Tingting thought about it carefully for a long time and shook her head: "They didn't tell me this, but some students do work part-time, because the adults in the family no longer pay expenses other than tuition." ”
"So, even though you're eighteen years old, you're still a kid because you don't have the ability to live independently."
"What if I find a job in the future and can support myself?"
"Let's wait until that day."
Akiyo shrugged his shoulders.
"You'll wait!"
Ren Tingting called out to Qiusheng, "How old are you?" Have you ever been abroad? ”
"I am eighteen years old this year, and I have been raised by Master since I was a child, let alone going abroad, I have never even been out of the sea. Not everyone can be as happy as you, miss. ”
"Then how do you know about things abroad?"
"Huh?" Qiusheng bared his teeth and said, "People like us who make a living everywhere have been exposed to it, and they must have heard more than you flowers in the greenhouse, so don't be too curious, my miss." ”
Ren Tingting frowned: "I always feel that you are hiding a lot of your own affairs." ”
"Hahaha." Qiusheng sloppily said, "The truth is always revealed by oneself to be the most fulfilling." ”
"All right, beautiful young lady, please tell me which way we should go."
"Just follow me."
At this moment, it was already dawn, and Qiusheng followed behind Ren Tingting and came to the front of a rice shop.
"This is it."
Ren Tingting pointed to the shop and said, "This rice shop is our largest rice shop here, you said you want to buy fifty catties of glutinous rice, I don't dare to say it in other places, there must be one here." ”
As he spoke, a middle-aged man with an honest face walked out and greeted him warmly, "What do you two need?" Look at it casually, our rice shop has all kinds of rice, only you can't think of it, there is nothing that I don't have in this shop. ”
"What's the boss's surname?"
"My surname is Ma, you can just call me Lao Ma." The middle-aged man laughed.
"You are so much older than me, why am I embarrassed to call you old horse, call you boss horse."
"It's okay, call me anything, come in and have a look."
Qiusheng walked to the shop and was dazzled by the dazzling array of various rices, if it weren't for the marks on each bag of rice, he wouldn't know what kind of rice they were.
But Qiusheng didn't panic, grabbed a handful of each kind of rice and put it in his hand to feel it carefully.
"Boss, how come some rice is thick and some rice is fine, but the price of coarse rice is higher than that of fine rice?"
"Young man, you don't know this, this coarse rice has the benefits of coarse rice, and this kind of rice is specially purchased from outside, not grown locally."
Qiusheng bared his teeth and smiled, deceiving the ghost.
Just as he was about to speak, a young man in a security guard clothes suddenly came in from outside.
However, when the young man saw Ren Tingting, he was very enthusiastic.
"Tingting, when did you come back, why don't you tell me, so I can pick you up."
Ren Tingting looked back, it turned out that this person was Ren Tingting's cousin Ah Wei, I heard that he was a captain of a security team on the outlying islands, and he was usually very proud.
"Cousin? How did you end up here. ”
"Didn't I happen to be patrolling here, and when I saw a beautiful figure in the shop, I couldn't help but walk in." Ah Wei smiled, "It turned out to be my cousin." ”
Qiusheng couldn't help but roll his eyes on the side, this old-fashioned accosting.
"Who is he?" Ah Wei is worthy of being the captain of the security team, and he can see at a glance that the relationship between Qiusheng and Ren Tingting is not ordinary.
It is also possible that there are only two of them in the rice shop at the moment, except for the boss.
"He's ......," Ren Tingting thought for a while, "He's a friend of mine, and I'll accompany him to buy rice today." ”
"Buy rice?" Ah Wei had a question mark on his head, "Don't you have a housekeeper?" Why do you need to buy rice? What about my cousin? ”
"Uncle Qing, he's sick, so naturally I'll do the work of buying rice."
Naturally, the boss of Mi Puma knows Ah Wei, after all, Ah Wei often brings the security team to patrol here.
"It turned out to be the captain's cousin, why didn't you say it earlier, give you the best rice, and it's cheap!"
Looking at Boss Ma's face full of smiles, Ah Wei shook his head slightly.
Boss Ma, who had already become a refinement, rolled his eyes, naturally understood, and hurriedly smiled and nodded.
"What to buy, just say."
Qiusheng pointed to one of the jars of rice and said, "I want this kind of glutinous rice, fifty catties." ”
"Fifty pounds?" Boss Ma was stunned, where would ordinary people buy so much rice, not to mention that the weather is hot now, and rice is easy to get insects at home.
"I'm using it to practice."
Qiusheng was concise and to the point.
Boss Ma instantly glanced Qiusheng up and down, and saw that although Qiusheng was young, his clothes were worn on his body, but it seemed that there was still meat where there should be meat, such as chest muscles.
"It turned out to be a martial artist, disrespectful and disrespectful."
Boss Ma regarded Qiusheng as an apprentice of a martial arts gym, although he didn't know what kung fu needed to be practiced with glutinous rice, but since people came to buy it, how could there be a reason to open the door and not do business.
"This glutinous rice is the best glutinous rice in our store, for the sake of you being a friend of Captain Awei, I'll give you a cheaper, fifty catties of rice only charge you fifty mosquitoes."
Ren Tingting nodded: "Boss, then thank you." ”
"Wait a minute, I'll go to the inner room and pack the rice in a bag and bring it to you." After speaking, Boss Ma glanced at Ah Wei and walked towards the house.
Ah Wei asked Ren Tingting with a smile: "Cousin, since you are back, when will we get together?" It's better to just do it today, fifty catties of rice is so heavy, I'll help you carry it home. ”
