Her misogynistic mother accepted a high-priced bride price and married her to a man with disabled legs. She was ridiculed for half her life. Facing the婆婆's (mother-in-law's) constant ni...
Jiang Sui was annoyed by this sentence. She realized that these two people were not buying candied haws in reality, but were really teasing her.
Without saying a word, she picked up the candied haws and left.
When the two men saw Jiang Sui turn around and leave, they shamelessly followed her.
"Don't run! We didn't say we didn't want to buy your candied haws! Your candied haws are big! Yes, very big!"
"Hahahaha! Not only is the candied haws big!"
"Your breasts are big, and your butt is big too! You look like a married woman. They are so big, must a man have massaged them for you?"
The two people kept spitting disgusting and obscene words at Jiang Sui. Jiang Sui got annoyed and suddenly stopped: "Do you have any shame? What do you want to do in broad daylight? Believe it or not, I will call the police!"
"Hey, we pissed them off!"
"It will only make you more angry! Hahaha! Tell me the truth, did you hide two big buns in your clothes?!"
...
...
Jiang Sui's face flushed all the way to her neck. She could no longer bear it, so she pulled two candied haws off the straw target and threw them hard at the two men's faces: "Disgusting! Vulgar! Rogue! Shameless!"
The two people were hit by the candied haws and immediately became unhappy.
"You're pretty temperamental, huh?"
"Sister, we won't bother with you! It's okay if you smash it! But we like your candied haws, so sell them all to us!"
"No! I'd rather feed it to the dogs than sell it to you!"
"It's okay if you don't want to sell it! Then just follow us home. I have hawthorn and sugar at home. You can go home and make a pot for us!"
The two men were about to start physical contact, and Jiang Sui became anxious and shouted, "You rascal! Catch the rascal! Help!"
"Sister, stop shouting! We are all in the park, there are only a few people outside! Even if someone stops by, they won't dare to meddle in other people's business! Otherwise, why don't you go around and ask around to see who we are?"
"Bah! I don't care who you are, get out of here! Otherwise, I'm calling the police!"
"Go if you can!"
Jiang Sui didn't expect that she would meet such a person when selling candied haws. Just when she was getting anxious, a voice exploded in the air like thunder.
"What are you doing? Bullying a woman in the street, you want to die!!"
The voice was full of righteousness and vigor, and it sounded somewhat familiar. Jiang Sui turned around and saw a green military jeep parked not far from him. Ji Lin, who was wearing a military uniform, was sticking his head out of the window and shouting at the two men.
When the two men saw that it was a man in military uniform driving a jeep, they immediately stopped causing trouble and turned around and ran away.
Nowadays, you can mess with anyone, especially soldiers. Especially those who drive a jeep and wear a military uniform with four pockets are even more unacceptable.
Seeing the two men running away, Jiang Sui also breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Lin opened the door and got out of the car, and said to the driver: "Xiao Liu, please park the car by the park and wait for me. I will be back soon!"
"Yes, Deputy Battalion Commander Ji."
Ji Lin strode up to Jiang Sui and saw the remnant of panic on her face. He also saw the wasted candied haws thrown on the ground, so he bent down to pick them up.
Jiang Rui hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Ji, don't pick them up! They can't be eaten..."
Ji Lin sighed, looked at the candied haws with regret and said, "They are all good things, what a pity..."
"Here." Jiang Sui plucked a candied haws from the straw target and handed it to Ji Lin, "Try it!"
"Did you make all this?" Ji Lin took a bite and found it sour, sweet and crispy, which delighted his taste buds. "Delicious!"
"I made it. I sell candied haws when I have nothing to do."
Ji Lin nodded and glanced in the direction where the two men ran away: "Who are those two people? Do you know them?"
Jiang Sui shook his head: "I don't know him. I haven't seen him before. This is the first time I've seen him. Thanks to your help, otherwise, I don't know what would have happened today."
Ji Lin looked at Jiang Sui from head to toe and said, "Are you okay? Did those two guys not bully you?"
“No, no.” Jiang Sui waved her hands repeatedly, “You came just in time! Thank you so much, Brother Ji. You helped me twice! If it weren’t for you, I would definitely be in trouble today.”
"Don't be so polite. Your brother and I are friends, isn't it my duty to help you? Then again, even if your brother and I are not friends, I can't just stand by and watch when I meet someone who needs help!" Ji Lin said.
"Thank you." Jiang Sui pursed her lips and smiled, with two shallow dimples appearing at the corners of her lips.
"You are just like your sister-in-law. You have two dimples on the corners of your mouth when you smile..." Ji Lin stared at the two cute dimples on the corners of Jiang Sui's mouth.
"Ah?" Jiang Sui was stunned. "Brother Ji, you are quite observant!"
“Ahem…” Ji Lin coughed twice to cover up, “Well… mainly because there are too few people with dimples, and you’re all living together, so this kind of situation is even rarer, so I couldn’t help but pay attention to it!”
"oh."
"Well, yes, that's it."
The two stood in the sun for a while, and Jiang Sui spoke first: "Well... I have to go sell candied haws. Brother Ji, thank you so much... I'll give you another string of candied haws!"
Ji Lin waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, I won't eat it myself."
"Then...then when are you free? Let my brother treat you to dinner!" Jiang Sui said.
"Me? I have time now."
"Now? Brother Ji, aren't you busy?"
"No hurry, no hurry..." Ji Lin waved his hands quickly, "I'm coming home from the army today. I encountered this situation on the way home before I even got home."
"Oh, then...then you will come home with me later?"
Ji Lin agreed immediately: "That's great! It just so happens that I haven't seen your elder brother for a long time. I said I would go see him during the last Chinese New Year, but there were too many things at home and I was busy in the army, so I only stayed for two days before leaving! I feel quite regretful..."
"Then you don't have to regret it this time. My brother will be very happy if he sees you when he comes home at night!" Jiang Sui said with a smile.
"I think he should be happy too. Well...then let's not waste time here, let's go, get in the car, and go to your house!" Ji Lin said as he was about to leave.
"Wait." Jiang Sui stopped him hurriedly, "Brother Ji, you are not in a hurry now, right? The weather is so good today, and there are many people in the park. I still have a dozen strings of candied haws left. Wait until I sell them all before leaving."
"What else are you selling? No need to sell anything! I've already bought all the candied haws!" Ji Lin said as he took out a ten-yuan bill from his pocket.
Jiang Sui waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no! I can't sell you this candied haws!"
"It doesn't matter who I sell it to." Ji Lin understood Jiang Sui's meaning. He looked at Xiao Liu who had just parked his car not far away, then raised his hand and waved at the car.
The car door opened, and a young soldier in military uniform walked out of the car and ran to Ji Lin.
"Captain, what are your orders?"
"I called them all." Ji Lin frowned.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Ji."
Ji Lin nodded and pointed at the straw target in front of Jiang Sui: "Come, carry all the straw target away! Take the candied haws on it back to the compound and share them with the soldiers in the police company. Come back quickly after you've distributed them! I have something else to do!"
"Yes, Deputy Battalion Commander Ji." Xiao Liu took the straw target from Jiang Sui's hand, "What if this candied haws is not enough?"
"Then let them share one string!"
"clear."
"Let's go!"
Xiao Liu carried the straw target and walked away. When he got to the car door, he was in a dilemma. How could he carry the straw target back while driving without getting sugar all over the candied haws?
"Are you willing to pay now?" Ji Lin forced the money into Jiang Sui's pocket. "Let's go to the park. And wait for Xiao Liuer!"
"Well... okay then." Jiang Sui agreed.
In this way, without her realizing it, Ji Lin had arranged her next itinerary.
