Chapter 712: Snatch (4)
"Hahaha, Zhao Li told me that our daughter is a child prodigy. I didn't believe it before. Look at what she said, it's so reasonable." Lu Zhiwei couldn't help laughing. She was
just a little kid, still drinking milk, but she spoke so well.
"Of course, she's my daughter!" Ruan Jianguo was very proud when he heard this.
But again, he was still a very serious male chauvinist. He had to use the money left by Shu Lang at the beginning, but now he would never use Ruan Jiaojiao's money.
Ruan Jiaojiao saw that she couldn't convince him, so she was too lazy to say anything. She turned around with the milk bottle in her hand and was about to look for Ruan Linshi. But after taking a few steps, she heard shouting from outside the door.
"Popcorn popcorn, five eggs and half a bowl of rice." The voice was drawn out.
Several boys who were watching TV immediately brightened up and ran out: "Here, here, we're going to popcorn popcorn here."
Popcorn popcorn is one of the few snacks that rural children can afford. Popcorn
popcorn is made from rice. First, pour the rice into the dark "barrel", tighten the lid, put it on the stove, and then start shaking the handle of the machine, three circles to the left and three circles to the right... It takes 7 minutes to pop a pot of popcorn popcorn. The
man who was carrying the popcorn machine on a shoulder pole was a man in his fifties or sixties. Hearing this, he stopped in front of the Ruan family's building.
Perhaps because the Ruan family had only a few buildings, the man did not dare to come in, but asked at the door: "Wait, is the head of your family here?"
Ruan Jianguo and Lu Zhiwei had already stood up at this time, walked to the door and said: "He's at home, come in."
Hearing this, the man carrying the shoulder pole came in. Both ends of the shoulder pole were sacks. It was only eight or nine o'clock in the morning, but he was already sweating. After entering the yard, he found that the building was more imposing than it looked from the outside. He did not dare to move, but put the shoulder pole down by the corner of the wall and wiped his face with the towel around his neck.
However, the towel was already very rotten, rotten and black, and there was a lot of sweat. This wipe made his eyes sore.
They were all from poor families, so Ruan Jianguo naturally wouldn't mind. He just said, "There's a well over there. Go wash there. It's too hot now."
"Oh, OK, OK." The man smiled gratefully and walked to the well. He didn't dare to use Ruan's bucket. He just pressed the well water while washing his towel.
After washing twice, he wiped his face. He didn't expect that when he took off the towel, he would see a white and tender little face. He had been walking around the streets for so many years, but he had never seen such a beautiful child.
And the little child didn't mind that he was dirty at all. He held a piece of watermelon and handed it to him: "Grandpa, this is for you."
Ruan Jiaojiao handed over a piece of watermelon that had been chilled in the refrigerator.
The man rubbed his body vigorously twice before he had the nerve to reach out to take it, and he thanked him profusely.
Ruan Lin took a look from behind, smiled and went to the house to scoop rice.
Popcorn is the only snack that country children can afford, because the popcorn maker may not charge money, but also eggs. Even the poorest families always have a few eggs at home. The news
that a popcorn maker came to Xiahe Village spread throughout the village in less than half a minute, and many children ran over with household tools such as dustpans and scoops and a small bowl of rice.
