Chapter 41 Boarding the Upeng Boat to the County Seat (10,000 Recommended Tickets)
This farce lasted for about half an hour, and Bai Lanlan, who didn't make any trouble in the end, still scolded and left with her husband.
Those villagers who watched the excitement saw that Xu Tongdao's whole family was not very good-looking, some people dispersed directly, and some comforted them a few words, and they also dispersed.
In the end, only Xu Tongdao's family and Xu Tonglin remained.
"Xiaodao, tonight's mutton won't be roasted, right?"
Xu Tonglin glanced at the mutton skewers that were casually thrown on the ground by Xu Tongdao before, sighed, and asked.
Ge Xiaozhu also glanced over there and whispered, "Put everything away! ”
Xu Tongdao shook his head, "No, Mom, if you're tired, go back to the house to rest first! These mutton won't be roasted tonight, and it may stink tomorrow, so you go and rest first!"
After speaking, Xu Tongdao instructed his sister who was holding his mother: "Yuzhu, you help your mother to rest!
"Oh, good, good, big brother!"
Ge Yuzhu was obedient as always, and immediately persuaded in a low voice, helping her sighing mother into the house.
Behind the house, only Xu Tongdao, Xu Tonglin and Xu Tonglu remained.
Xu Tongdao silently sat back in his original position, reached out and grabbed two handfuls of mutton skewers and roasted them slowly on the stove, roasted for a while, and suddenly ordered: "Xiaolu, add some charcoal to the stove!"
Xu Tonglu glanced at him, didn't say anything, squatted over and picked up a few pieces of charcoal and threw them in the small clay stove.
Seeing this, Xu Tonglin also squatted to the side.
The red fire reflected on the three young faces, illuminating the different expressions on the three faces.
Xu Tonglin seemed to be in a daze; Xu Tonglu's expression was gloomy and his eyes were gloomy; Xu Tongdao was flat, but his brows were slightly condensed.
My cousin brought her husband to his house to make such a scene, saying that it had no impact on his Xu Tongdao's mood at all, it was absolutely impossible.
He was also unhappy, but more of a helplessness about the status quo.
It is already a fact that his father eloped with his aunt, and no matter what he did or did, he couldn't change it.
For a while, the three people by the fire were silent, and no one was interested in speaking.
Xu Tongdao flipped the mutton skewers in his hand from time to time, and the mutton grains on the bamboo skewers shrank a little under the barbecue of the stove, and the mutton fat overflowed a little bit like water droplets, as well as a faint meat fragrance.
Until there was a sound of footsteps in his house, and Xu Changsheng's voice: "Xiaodao, Xiaodao, are you at home?"
Hearing the sound, Xu Tongdao turned his head slightly, Xu Tonglin also raised his head, only Xu Tonglu remained motionless.
"I heard that your cousin came to your house to quarrel?
Xu Changsheng stepped out of the back door quickly, and came to Xu Tongdao as he asked.
Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, "It's okay!Why are you free to come over? Your mother didn't arrange anything for you tonight?"
Xu Changsheng saw that Xu Tonglin and Xu Tonglu were squatting by the fire, and simply squatted next to him, and laughed when he heard the words, "I have washed all the pots and dishes, I just heard that something happened to your family, so I came here to take a look." ”
"Thanks!"
Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, "Since you're here, let's wait for a while! The mutton in my hand will be roasted in a while, you can eat it while it's hot." ”
Xu Changsheng looked at the skewers in his hand and nodded.
At this time, Xu Tonglin suddenly asked, "Hey, Changsheng, what Xiaodao told us yesterday, how did you think about it?"
Hearing this, Xu Tongdao glanced at Xu Changsheng.
His younger brother Xu Tonglu also came over.
The smile on Xu Changsheng's face froze, he lowered his head slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Xiaodao, I'm sorry! I'm afraid I can't go with you, I, I don't dare to tell my parents about this, so, I'm sorry! Don't blame me." ”
Xu Tongdao's expression did not change, he had already expected this result.
When Xu Changsheng hesitated yesterday, he expected it.
He smiled faintly, he was not in the mood to say anything else at this time, "Okay! It's okay, this is a voluntary thing, since you don't want to go, of course I can't force it, I can understand, don't take it to heart." ”
Xu Tonglu pursed his lips and withdrew his gaze.
Xu Tonglin sighed in disappointment.
Xu Changsheng smiled and apologized again, "I'm sorry, Xiaodao!"
Xu Tongdao shook his head slightly and didn't say anything more.
Xu Changsheng looked at the roast mutton in Xu Tongdao's hand and swallowed his saliva, but he was probably embarrassed to stay and eat mutton, so he got up hesitantly and said, "Then, then I'll go back first! My mother may call me at any time, I can't stay here for a long time, let's go!"
As he spoke, he lifted his feet and left.
Xu Tongdao sat there and didn't move, just now Xu Changsheng said that he couldn't go with him, he was unmoved, and now that Xu Changsheng is leaving, he is also unmoved.
Not in the mood to keep it.
But it was Xu Changsheng's departure that made him more and more determined to do the business of skewers.
Even if no one wants to go with him, he still has to do this business.
The speed of earning money from part-time work is too slow! There is no future in sight.
Xu Tonglin looked at Xu Changsheng and left, for a while, Xu Tonglin's expression became cloudy, he frowned and looked at Xu Tongdao, whose expression was still very flat, Xu Tonglin suddenly said: "Xiaodao! I have decided, I will do it with you! I will accompany you to break through! Okay?"
Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglu were surprised.
Both brothers looked at Xu Tonglin, who looked determined.
Xu Tongdao was a little puzzled, "Didn't your parents disagree?"
Xu Tonglin: "No matter! Xiaodao, I'm serious! You believe me, even if my parents don't agree all the time, I promise to go with you to break through! Anyway, they are just my son, I don't believe that they are angry, and they can still deny me as a son!"
Speaking of this, he grinned, "Hehe, but, then again, I still have to try to convince them, you say yes? By the way, these skewers of mutton in your hand are roasted, give them to me! I'll take them back to my mother to taste, and try to get her first tonight!"
Xu Tongdao looked at the smile on his face, looked at it in a daze for a few seconds, and also smiled slightly, "Okay!"
......
Not long after, Xu Tonglin took a few skewers of mutton that had just been roasted and rushed home.
By the fire, only Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglu were left.
Xu Tongdao replaced two new lamb skewers and grilled them on the stove.
Xu Tonglu squatted next to him and watched quietly.
......
During this period, Xu Tongdao went to Xihe every day to put shrimp buns, and did two experiments on lamb kebabs.
Xu Tonglin has not persuaded his mother to agree to him to go to the county seat with Xu Tongdao to set up a stall, but a few days ago, he successfully completed his father's ideological work.
On this morning, it was cloudy and the breeze was gentle, and by the West River, Xu Tongdao waved goodbye to his mother, younger brother, and sister, and boarded the Wupeng boat to the county seat with Xu Tonglin with simple luggage and a few hundred yuan.
Both of them were standing on the shore at this time, Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin had already boarded the boat, and Ge Xiaozhu and Xu Tonglin's parents kept telling them to pay attention to safety.
The boat sailed to the shore, and when it was getting farther and farther, Xu Tongdao turned around and saw his sister Ge Yuzhu standing on the shore waving her arms vigorously.
The arms were only a little black......
