Chapter 69 71: Sweet dates (1)

After the light outside the house was so bright, Lin Xiang called Lin Yan up——

For breakfast, I made a light vegetable porridge, added some minced meat and eggs, cut some shredded pickles, and added a little sesame oil to taste——

Hot eggs, and fried shredded pork with vegetables——

Steaming and steaming, Lin Xiang filled a bowl full of hot porridge and put it on the table.

After Lin Yan got up and the two of them had a simple breakfast, Lin Xiang said: "I don't have anything to do today, I want to go to the market again—"

Lin Yan was puzzled: "Aren't many shops closed?"

Nodding, Lin Xiang said: "It's okay, I'll go and have a look, anyway, staying at home is just staying at home—"

After breakfast, Lin Xiang told Lin Yan to wash the dishes and chopsticks, and then went out with the money.

Just as soon as he stepped out of the house, he saw an inexplicably familiar figure sitting on a small chair in an open space not far from his door. After a while, the man turned his head, and Lin Xiang happened to meet his eyes .

Before he could react, he started to yell, which stunned Lin Xiang in place——

"Oh! Whose girl, she slept until the sun was shining on her ass, and she ran very fast last night. Asking your girl to get me a steamed bun is too lazy for you!"

Lin Xiang was stunned for a long time amidst the shouting and scolding, before Lin Xiang finally came to his senses. His first thought was: Who is this inexplicable fat woman?
The memory of the fault suddenly recovered, and then he remembered the memory about this woman.

But in a short while, Lin Xiang had already turned from dazed to speechless, and then became a little angry——

She never said that she was a girl of their family, besides, why did that incomprehensible person treat herself like a vulgar person!

Sister-in-law Wang was already out the door in a blink of an eye, she saw Lin Xiang with one side of her face, she smiled awkwardly at first, and then said to the fat woman: "If sister-in-law has the time to spare, she can peel the sweet potatoes at home. , I have to eat at noon in the evening, and my sister-in-law is also watching, my family does not raise idlers, and the two nephews, big and small, know how to clean up!"

"Our family has no extra income, and there is no idle food for one more person to eat!" Sister-in-law Wang's words were terrific. From a distance, even Lin Xiang could hear the contempt and disgust in her tone.

The cursing woman seemed to have no shame, she immediately silenced when she heard the words, looked at Mrs. Wang, and muttered in her mouth, her voice was not too small: "I am your sister-in-law and I still order you around. If my mother comes I don't know what the grievances are like. My daughter and I didn't have enough to eat in the morning. No matter how long we don't go back to the village, we won't be able to lose face when we meet relatives... Sigh... What kind of character have we developed? ..."

Lin Xiang was silent in his heart, the voice was so loud that even she could hear it, okay——

Sister-in-law Wang must have felt uncomfortable when she heard the words, and she didn't give the fat woman a good face on the spot: "If sister-in-law doesn't want to eat, don't eat, anyway, there is not much food at home, and a lot of food was brought by the little girl next door. , just to have a good year..."

Hearing this, Lin Xiang felt embarrassed to listen any more. He nodded to Mrs. Wang, then turned around and left, but could vaguely hear exclamations coming from behind——

"What the hell, didn't the delicious dishes last night belong to us? Are you kidding me? Don't look at me for a long time in the country and you can lie to me. I saw you give the big tiger two tigers this morning. Secretly stuffed eggs, what is there to hide..."

"Pfft——" Lin Xiang couldn't hold back when he heard the words, and as he walked, he laughed when he heard it——

At the same time, I couldn't help lamenting for Mrs. Wang that there is such an excellent relative in the family, not to mention the autumn wind, but also calculating the little food everywhere. This is only after being hungry at home for a long time and becoming poor and crazy.

While thinking about the matter of the best relatives in my heart, I walked all the way. After walking for about half an hour, I entered the site of the market——

Taking a closer look around the surroundings, it is really as Lin Yan said, the doors are locked tightly everywhere. Originally, Lin Xiang thought that there would be some vendors to buy things.

But the street is really quiet, but when the extremely cold wind blows, it looks extremely cool. The bustling market looks like a bustling market on weekdays, but now there is nothing left?

At first, he felt that his trip was wasted, Lin Xiang wandered around and walked for a while, only to realize that it was not that no one came out to buy things at all, but most of the things he sold were those that were a bit boring to eat in his mouth on weekdays. The food, and Lin Xiang stepped forward to ask the price, it is really very expensive——

Now Lin Xiang has some spare money in his hands, so he starts to think about some delicious things from time to time. Because he was too poor, the ingredients of the restaurant were sometimes inexhaustible, so he either stole them from the restaurant. The rest of the materials, anyway, don't need her own money anyway.

Lin Xiang originally wanted to make jujube tea yesterday, so he looked for jujubes at the market. Winter is the season for jujube production, but the seasons are different, so the types of jujubes are also different. They are the same, but there is no big difference, that is, the difference between a good date and a bad one lies in whether it is sweet or not——

My feet felt a little sore when I walked. Lin Xiang felt that he was hungry, but he still didn't see the seller. However, there was a dim sum shop next to the street that was still open. Lin Xiang thought about it and decided to buy it. Bring some snacks back to Lin Yan——

There are quite a lot of types of dim sum, some of which Lin Xiang had never seen before in modern times. Although he was curious, Lin Xiang still chose conservative dim sum and Taste.

"Ten coppers—"

Lin Xiang was a little surprised when he heard this. When he bought it a few days ago, it cost eight copper coins.

The dim sum seller on the opposite side smiled, "Is today a special day——"

Lin Xiang thought about it.

That's right, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. In modern times, the fare for a car during the Chinese New Year is still increased——

Feeling a little lamented that the money was not enough to spend, Lin Xiang paid ten copper coins, and Lin Xiang walked away with a bag of snacks. Who knew that he happened to walk to the intersection on the corner of the street, and saw a date seller.

A large basket of jujubes was spread on the ground, and a piece of cloth was placed underneath. They were densely piled up like a hill, red, green and green, but the colors were bright and tight.

However, the jujubes were divided into two groups, one side was larger and the other side was smaller.

In the cold winter months, it was difficult for a merchant to sell things there. He vaguely looked at a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old. She looked a little yellow, yellow and black, and she was only wearing a thin layer of clothes.

His mouth was purple from the cold, and his face was pale.

Although there are not many vendors shopping on the first day of the new year, there are not many people who come out to buy things on the first day of the new year——
