"Amazing, Yan Yin is the best!" I gave her a thumbs up. "But you still haven't answered me, why did you come so early?"
"Dad has to go to work at the construction site, and I missed my brother, so I asked him to bring me here," Yan Yin said, taking my hand and saying, "Brother, come play with me!"
"My brother has to work!" I shook my head and said.
"Let Uncle do it!"
"This...isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
...
I assure you, I really wanted to be a good apprentice, since I did owe Yan Shan a favor. But between Yan Yin and Yan Shan, I could only choose Yan Yin.
After all, Yan Shan was also afraid.
Then I should naturally be sensible.
Absolutely no selfish motives!
What surprised me was that what Yan Yin meant by "playing" was actually dragging me to take her to the morning market.
To be honest, I've lived in this world for so many years, but I've never actually experienced a morning market, or rather, I have no concept of it at all.
In my previous life, just two days after I arrived in this world, the Xu family came knocking on my door. After that, I lived the life of the eldest son of the Xu family. To be honest, apart from my troubled love life and lack of love from my family, my life was indeed far better than that of many other people.
"Brother, there's so much delicious food here."
As Yan Yin walked, she happily said, "There's stinky tofu, fried potatoes, and delicious snail rice noodles!"
"Hmm... there are also pancakes and steamed buns."
"I can't count them all."
"There's so much, so much more!"
Hearing this string of names, my lips twitched slightly, and then I couldn't help but take a closer look at Yan Yin. In my memory, seven years later she was tall and thin, and almost perfect in every way.
She actually likes to eat such high-calorie foods?
Is this the kind of body that can eat anything and not gain weight?
I felt envious and said with a smile, "What would you like to eat today? I'll treat you."
"Really?"
"certainly!"
I nodded seriously.
However, I regretted it the next moment.
After Yan Yin bought a pancake from a pancake stall, I realized that I was penniless and my pockets were emptier than my face. How could I possibly treat anyone?
"Young man, 7 yuan."
The boss looked at me with a smile.
"that……"
"Here you go!" Before I could finish speaking, Yan Yin took out a ten-yuan note and handed it over, which made me pause for a moment.
Is Yan Yin richer than me?
After leaving the stall, I said awkwardly, "Yan Yin, you said it was my treat..."
Yan Yin looked at me with a puzzled expression, "Yes!"
"My brother came with me and treated me to pancakes."
“But you paid for it,” I corrected.
"Girls shouldn't spend boys' money," Yan Yin said seriously.
"Who said that?" I asked in surprise.
"That's what Mom said." Yan Yin thought for a moment and said, "Mom said that boys work hard to earn money, so we shouldn't waste boys' money."
"..."
That's very true.
But it was somewhat heartbreaking.
Because I want to protect Yan Yin.
Now, he can't even afford a 7-yuan pancake.
"Brother, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Yan Yin looked at me with a puzzled expression.
I snapped out of my reverie, smiled, and said, "No, let's go look around somewhere else."
"Okay!" Yan Yin didn't think much of it; at fourteen, she didn't have many such thoughts. "There are steamed buns over there, I want to eat steamed buns!"
"good!"
I watched Yan Yin run towards the steamed bun stall, and at that moment, only one thought occupied my mind.
I want to make money.
Not just for myself, but for everyone, and for the future!
