There was nothing much to say to a few grown men sitting together. Seeing Lu Xiao lowering his head, Song Jingfeng asked, "Brother Lu, what are you holding in your hand? Look, it's something precious to you. Let me see it too!"
Song Jingfeng shamelessly looked over and saw that it was a comic book, which he found quite interesting: "Brother, your story is very new! Where did you buy it? You didn't even mention bringing a copy for me. Life in the army is very boring!"
As soon as he said that, Lin Yun also came over to look at the vivid illustrations in the book. The two wanted to snatch it from him, but in the end they didn't have the courage to do so.
Lin Yun rubbed his hands and asked shamelessly: "Brother Lu, lend it to me after you finish reading it. Why haven't I seen it in Xinhua Bookstore? This painting is too good. What is it about?"
Seeing the two people's eagerness for knowledge, Lu Xiao's vanity was greatly satisfied. He boasted: "Of course you can't buy it in the bookstore. This is the Little Hero series drawn by your sister-in-law. It's very positive.
Lu Li's eyes were swollen from crying. It was obvious how powerful her writing was and how easy it was for people to empathize with her. The first volume has been submitted to the provincial publishing house. She is going to continue serializing it! I am also following it?"
He is Jiang Yan's real die-hard fan.
Lin Yun dropped the melon seeds in his hand when he heard this. Disbelief flashed in his eyes. He blinked and said, "You...you said this was drawn by my sister-in-law? Is that true? The drawing is too good! If the publishing house doesn't like it, then they are definitely blind.
Once it is released, it will be sold out. How many surprises does my sister-in-law have hidden for us? Is there anything she can't do? This is a lot of tricks! She will get several salaries. I won't tell you who is envious! "
His tone was sour, and Song Jingfeng was no better: "Ah, Brother Lu, being single is annoying enough, and you're showing off. Isn't this just tricking a dog into coming in and killing him!"
Lu Xiao doesn't have a guilty conscience, because these two old guys said that if he doesn't get married, his family line will become extinct.
Humph, there will come a day when you can’t stand it anymore, when it’s so dazzling that your scalp tingles.
Lu Xiao raised his lips and said, "I am lucky to have met your sister-in-law. You guys, I'm afraid you don't have that luck. It's good enough to have someone to live with you. You are so picky. If you don't find someone, you may end up breaking your pot in the future."
These two sentences made Song Jingfeng and Lin Yun itchy and they really wanted to hit someone. What should they do?
Forget it, since he is a patient, I won’t bother with him.
Jiang Yan and Lu Li had just arrived at the market when they heard Nian A-mei's clear voice: "Buy seafood, big and fresh seafood, don't miss it if you pass by, look here, look here."
Lu Li couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Nian Amei is always full of energy. Her family depends on her for food. This girl is so capable. Whoever marries her in the future will be really blessed."
Jiang Yan agreed: "Of course, I'm just afraid that my relatives who don't like you will introduce me to someone else. Otherwise, with your quickness, it won't be a problem to find a good one."
"The matchmaker is unreliable. She can only introduce people who are like her. She treats women as a source of goods! She says that men who are honest and decent can make a living, but in fact, they are just waiting for you to take the initiative to bed! Women are not fools."
Lu Li really felt that some introducers were unethical and cheated their own family members. If you really want a good one, it will not be your turn. She just accepted it on her own.
Jiang Yan has never been on a blind date, but she has read quite a few of them in period novels, and they were all quite exciting.
She said seriously: "Good men are like money, they are not circulated, just know the number in your heart."
Lu Li clicked his tongue and said, "What's the point! You haven't seen forced marriages in the countryside? Take our compound for example. The girl from the Shen family is over 20 years old and still unmarried. Her parents feel ashamed and can't hold their heads up, so they just find a random guy to send her off. If the girl refuses to marry, he will drink pesticide. She has to jump into this fire pit no matter what!"
Lu Li is a person with no morals. No matter what anyone says, it will be useless if he doesn't want to do something.
You like drinking pesticides, right? If you have the guts, drink it. If we die, we die together. Don't accuse me of being unfilial.
Not to mention now, even in the future, in remote rural areas, if you are not married in your twenties, people will suspect that there is something wrong with your health and that you cannot have children.
Your parents don’t care whether you are happy or not. As long as you get married, they treat it as a mission accomplished. It’s so suffocating.
I hope all girls can bravely refuse moral blackmail when faced with it. You are yourself first, and your daughter second.
Let’s get off topic, let’s look at the seafood first.
Nian A-mei saw Jiang Yan from a distance, and she waved: "Sister-in-law, here, come quickly, I saved this for you, look, it's big and plump, you'll want more after you eat it."
Jiang Yan likes her very much. It makes money! Nothing is shabby. This is also a marketing method.
Haven't you seen that she has the best business on this street? First, she is good at making people happy with her words. Second, her products are good, so only repeat customers are willing to buy them. Third, she is good at attracting people.
Jiang Yan looked at the fresh seafood in the wooden barrel and said, "Give me eight catties of flower snails, six catties of razor clams, and one sea bass weighs four or five catties! Give me two catties, and eight catties each of mantis shrimp, small octopus, hermit crabs, and blue crabs. You also caught some peony shrimps, give them all to me."
Prawns are sweet and delicious, and have high nutritional value. They are known as the king of sea prawns. Jiang Yan has already figured out how to eat them.
Nian A-mei is a cute girl with a lovable smile: "My father said he would come back with an empty warehouse, but I didn't expect to catch a group of large yellow croakers and a lot of prawns on the way.
There were too many yellow croakers, and they might go bad, so he and my mother sent them to the purchasing station. This will at least bring some income to the family. Sister-in-law, I heard from Comrade Lu that you have started working, and I haven't congratulated you yet. Consider this a gift from me to you!"
She picked up several large conches. Jiang Yan sighed and stopped her: "No, let's put things in perspective. You still have to do business! How can you just give it away? I come here every day. How much can you give me?"
Nian A-mei smiled cheerfully, "What's the big deal? Come if you want to eat. There's nothing else, but plenty of seafood!"
The Dan family has lived on the sea all their lives, and they have nothing but seafood.
Jiang Yan was delighted when she heard this: "Then I'll come another day and eat you till you're broke. Don't give me this big conch, I have more at home! I appreciate your kindness!"
Nian A-mei was a smart person. When she saw Jiang Yan didn't want it, she changed her tone: "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll listen to you. I'll get on the scale first!"
As she spoke, she began to weigh the seafood. She controlled the weight well so that Jiang Yan did not suffer any loss. She even secretly gave her some extra when she was not paying attention.
Jiang Yan also noticed her little movements and laughed in his heart, this girl is so lovable!
She asked again: "Sister, why don't you marry into our family compound? I'll introduce you to a good one!"
When Nian A-mei heard this, her earlobes turned red and bled. She said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, you are too frivolous. Who in the courtyard would like me? I am just a stinky fishmonger, smelling like fish."
The locals are xenophobic and rarely marry those who drift on the sea, saying it is unlucky. Only those who are so poor that they can barely make ends meet will consider them!
