Chapter 81
As soon as Xia Yao heard that there were apples, his beautiful peach blossom eyes were shining, and he kept pushing the landing scene.
"Let's go check it out!"
Anhe County is in the north, and now it is an era of scarcity of materials, and there is no fruit in sight, Xia Yao has been hungry for fruit for a long time!
Thinking of this, she pushed Lu Jing into the crowd.
Lu Jing didn't need to look at it, but he could also feel her excitement at the moment from Xia Yao's excited tone.
Somehow soft in his heart, he was obediently taken away by Xia Yao.
Apples are a rarity, and this is true for people throughout Anhe County.
The supply and marketing cooperatives were crowded with outsiders, and the salesmen tried their best to maintain order, but they did not get better, so they could only take the money numbly with the mentality of breaking the jar and breaking it.
- That's right, there is no ticket for Apple this time.
As a result, more people are rushing to buy.
Xia Yao's eyes stared at the basket of apples on the counter, and when he saw that there was a gap in front of him, he immediately squeezed in.
The aunt on one side had an ugly face, and was about to push Xia Yao away, but her hand was firmly grasped and she couldn't move.
It's Lu Jing.
Seeing that Lu Jingren was tall and big, and she was not an opponent, the aunt put down her hand stupidly.
Seeing this, Lu Jing let go of his hand.
He didn't speak, just escorted Xia Yao to the edge of the counter.
With Lu Jing's help, Xia Yao's journey was very smooth.
She stared at the red apple and immediately pulled out the money.
"Give me two pounds!"
She originally wanted to buy more, but there were so many people outside, if she dared to buy it alone, not to mention that the salesman didn't agree, even if she could buy it, I was afraid that she would be drowned by these uncles and aunts with a mouthful of spit.
Xia Yao asked for two catties in one breath, which still attracted a lot of attention.
After all, this apple costs five yuan a pound, which is more expensive than meat!
"Sister, please pick some better ones for me, the children in the family are thinking about this!"
Xia Yao smiled shyly and gently, spoke softly, and was polite to people, compared with those uncles and aunts who had a loud voice and had to pick and choose.
The salesman's ugly face softened slightly, and his speech was not so hard, and he nodded: "Don't worry, everything that can be sold today is all good goods!" ”
That being said, the salesman still deliberately picked out a few large apples for Xia Yao.
Even the little extra weight she wiped off Xia Yao.
"A total of two catties, three yuan."
"Thank you, sister!"
Xia Yao smiled sweetly at the salesman, hurriedly handed over the money, and took the apple by the way.
"Let's go, let's go!"
After buying the apple, Xia Yao's beautiful eyes were radiant, and even Lu Jing was infected by her smile, and at this moment, the things on her shoulders seemed to be lighter.
Xia Yao was carrying a bag of apples, his eyes full of smiles.
She followed Lu Jing all the way, and was about to walk to and from the small courtyard.
But just as she walked around a corner, Lu Jing took her hand.
"Isn't it on the right......"
Before Xia Yao finished speaking, he saw a cold light flashing in Lu Jing's eyes.
She immediately shut her mouth, although she and Lu Jing didn't trust each other, but this was a business legend who could start from the end, and his words would not be in the way if you listened to them.
Lu Jing held Xia Yao's hand, his big hand was rough but had a blazing temperature.
Xia Yao bit his lower lip, his eyes blinked, and a thought suddenly came to him.
"Someone stalking us?"
Xia Yao thought in his heart, and said it unconsciously.
Then, she saw Lu Jing's tight jaw line.
"Not bad." Lu Jing's voice was cold, his pace was getting faster and faster, and Xia Yao needed to trot to keep up.
After running to the end of this path, Lu Jing dragged Xia Yao into another fork in the road.
There were baskets piled up here, but Lu Jing didn't give them a look, but pushed open a door.
He hid with Xia Yao.
It didn't take long for a rush of footsteps to come from the fork in the road, followed by a voice that was very familiar to Xia Yao.
"Why are people gone?"
It's Cheng Dahua!
Xia Yao's beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed, and he sneered in his heart.
Cheng Dahua is really ghostly!
She grinded her teeth secretly, and several methods of the whole journey of big flowers came out.
"Could it be into this courtyard?"
Mrs. Tian's hoarse voice also sounded, although she was old, she didn't get tired after running this way, and she still had the time to look around here.
These houses are uninhabited at first glance, and those two must have hid in them!
Mrs. Tian looked at these houses with a lot of thoughts in her heart.
But Cheng Dahua ran all the way and was already tired.
"Go back, you haven't grabbed the apple yet!"
"You're expensive!" Mrs. Tian scolded and walked back, "Isn't it good to buy meat for a piece of five-pound things?" What apples to buy? Can you ascend to heaven after eating? ”
Cheng Dahua was scolded by splitting her head and covering her face, and her face became more and more ugly.
Mrs. Tian scolded Cheng Dahua for not being enough, and muttered: "Where did that little cub of the Lu family get the money?" You can even buy these expensive fruits to eat! We countrymen, where will we eat these? ”
"I'm afraid it was given by Xia Yao's dead girl." Cheng Dahua said hatefully, "Give the money to your in-laws, and she will regret it in the future!" ”
Mrs. Tian was about to nod, but when she heard Cheng Dahua's words, she felt uncomfortable: "What are you talking about?" Marrying into our Tian family and wronging you? ”
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law scolded all the way away, and their voices gradually faded away.
It wasn't until he couldn't hear a sound at all that Xia Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Lu Jing's cold voice sounded above her head: "Can you let go?" ”
Hearing this, Xia Yao was full of excitement.
Only then did she realize that her whole body was leaning on Lu Jing's body, and she could hardly find a gap.
"Mistakes...... Blunder! ”
She smiled, quickly let go of her hand, and took a few steps back.
Where she couldn't see, Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go." Lu Jing's expression was a little solemn, "The county town can't stay long." ”
When Xia Yao heard this, his expression became serious: "After finishing this deal, we still have to stop for a while." ”
Now the Qingshui Brigade not only has the Tian family and Su Linlin, but also Xia Qingqing!
Xia Qingqing is the biggest hidden danger!
Thinking of this, Xia Yao stabilized his mind and proposed, "Let's go to the black market to have a look, it's best to help Chen Zhou sell out of things." ”
"Let's go back to the courtyard first."
Lu Jing's eyes flickered, and he still didn't approve of going to the black market.
"Chen Zhou's side...... I have a plan. ”
As soon as he heard it, he knew that Lu Jing didn't plan to let himself participate, Xia Yao snorted coldly, turned his head and walked out.
Who knew that Lu Jing turned around and walked in the opposite direction, Xia Yao's footsteps were sluggish, but he still followed Lu Jing.
As Mrs. Tian said, this house is not inhabited at all, I really don't know how Lu Jing found out about this.
Lu Jing's back seemed to have eyes, and he could see what Xia Yao was thinking at the moment without looking back, and he said lightly: "This piece of house belongs to Old Man Han." ”
"After Old Man Han was beaten into the Black Five category, these houses will no longer belong to him, and the workers of those factories will be resettled after a while."
"Old Man Han?"
Xia Yao read these four words again, but found that he had no memory at all.
Wrong!
"The child you see today is the only grandson of Old Man Han."
Xia Yao's eyes widened, a little surprised.
How can he have such a big house, how can he be a character who can stand side by side with Old Man Lu, and think back to the dilapidated small courtyard he saw today...... There weren't even a few good tiles on the roof......
Xia Yao's eyes were complicated, but he heard Lu Jing in front of him sneer: "They use chicken feathers as arrows, of course, to maximize their interests." ”
"Old Man Han can leave such a place, which is already the result of the operation of the trustee."
"You'd better be careful."
Cold, Lu Jing turned around, a pair of phoenix eyes with warning and coldness.
"There are a lot of people in this place."
Xia Yao shuddered, and the string in his head tightened.
"I know!" Xia Yao nodded solemnly, "In the future, I will try to go up the mountain as little as possible!" ”
Primitive accumulation is important, but it is not worth mentioning compared to small lives!
Soon, the two returned to their original courtyard.
In the small courtyard, in addition to the children, there was an old man with gray hair and a rickety body.
He was carrying a bucket of water with difficulty, walking in the small courtyard step by step.
"Grandpa Han."
Lu Jing strode forward and took the barrel in the old man's hand with one hand.
Old Man Han raised his head and barely saw Lu Jing's appearance clearly.
"Why are you here? Didn't you tell you not to come? Those people are staring at us! After Old Man Han recognized Lu Jing, he looked around nervously and found that there was an unfamiliar face, and his whole body tensed.
Xia Yao opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak when facing Old Man Han's frightened gaze.
"She's Xia Yao." Lu Jing patted Old Man Han's hand soothingly, he hesitated for a moment, but still introduced, "It's my wife." ”
Xia Yao clearly saw that Old Man Han's tense body became relaxed.
"I didn't expect to see you for a few months." Old Man Han patted Lu Jing with relief, "You are already married." ”
He looked at Xia Yao lovingly and smiled, but when he thought of the current scene in the small courtyard, he sighed in embarrassment: "In this situation, even if I want to give some greeting gifts, I can't take it!" ”
"I'm just bringing her to meet you." When Lu Jing faced Old Man Han, the spikes on his body were all retracted, and his attitude towards Old Man Han was very gentle.
"I'll give you something by the way."
As Lu Jing spoke, he put the water into the water tank and took out the wild boar meat that had already been processed on the ox cart.
"You and Xiao Xu's physical deficit is too serious, I was lucky to hit a wild boar and brought you a piece."
Wild boar meat is much fishier than domestic pigs, but no matter how fishy it is, it is meat.
Old Man Han almost couldn't remember what meat tasted like, he raised his hand, but after seeing the longing look in Han Xu's eyes, he finally sighed.
"I didn't expect that there are still people who remember our grandfather and grandson."
