“Hey, honey, your mom and I have arrived. We’re right at the bus station entrance. There’s a braised chicken rice restaurant next door.”
"Yes, you won't wander off. Your mom and I will wait for you here."
After getting off the bus, Ye's father immediately called Ye Yiqiu.
After hanging up the phone, he looked around.
I discovered that Chuanshan Town is much larger than Shuiyuan Town, where I live.
Shuiyuan Town has only one main road.
Clothing stores, convenience stores, hardware stores, noodle shops, and more are all located on one street.
Chuanshan Town is surrounded by streets on all sides, with shops everywhere, and it is very well planned.
Eyeglasses city, electronics city, clothing wholesale market, hardware trading city, etc.
If you want to buy a specific product, just go to the corresponding store.
You can also compare prices from different vendors, making it very affordable!
There are also quite a few people starting businesses here, such as e-commerce, live-streaming sales, and entertainment live-streaming.
Looking at the passing vehicles, Mr. Ye exclaimed, "This place is developing really well!"
“Really? I feel the same way. I can hear the roar of cars and the conversations of pedestrians every now and then,” said Ye’s mother.
Although she is blind, her hearing is very sensitive.
Even the slightest sound is amplified infinitely in her ears.
"Honey, there's a vintage-style convenience store over there, let's go check it out!"
Ye's father, with his sharp eyes, immediately spotted the nostalgic convenience store not far away.
This reminded him of the time when he first started dating Ye's mother.
At that time, the two met through friends.
Upon meeting, Ye's father fell in love with Ye's mother at first sight, and later saved up money to buy her a bag of White Rabbit milk candy.
He never imagined that it would be this bag of White Rabbit milk candy that would lead to him getting a wife.
"That won't do, will it? Didn't Niu Niu just tell us not to wander around?" Ye's mother asked.
"It's alright, the convenience store is near this station, she'll find us soon."
Mr. Ye took Mrs. Ye's hand. "Come on, just accompany me for a stroll."
"All right."
Ye's mother couldn't dissuade him, and in the end, she went with him.
As soon as he entered the convenience store, Mr. Ye saw all sorts of snacks on display.
Tang Monk Flesh, Shrimp and Egg, Stinky Tofu, Sour Girl, White Rabbit Milk Candy, Fatty, etc.
All classics!
A childhood favorite for those born in the 80s and 90s!
When Ye's father saw these snack packages, it immediately brought back childhood memories.
Without much thought, he took a bag of White Rabbit milk candy from among the many snacks.
After paying, I opened the package and handed one to Ye's mother.
"Honey, this is for you."
"Is this White Rabbit milk candy?" Ye's mother took the candy, touched it with her hand, and immediately guessed it.
"Yes, seeing this kind of shop reminds me of more than 20 years ago."
Mr. Ye looked on with a nostalgic expression. "Back then, nobody had cell phones. We communicated entirely by letter. Owning a bicycle was a big deal. I never imagined that times would change so quickly."
He took out his keypad phone, examined it from all angles, and exclaimed with a smile:
"Sigh! We're also getting left behind by the times!"
"Don't say that. Let's talk to the young people more this time and learn from them."
......
Ten minutes later.
The familiar van pulled up to the side of the road.
The car door opened, and two young men got out.
"Dad! Mom!" Ye Yiqiu waved to the two of them.
"Hey, daughter!" Ye's father responded, pulling Ye's mother along to walk diagonally across the street.
Ye Yiqiu also ran quickly towards the two of them.
A two-way journey!
A chubby figure followed behind, panting heavily and muttering to himself:
"Wait...wait for me! Pillar's life is also a life!"
After meeting, Ye Yiqiu prepared to introduce Pan Tiezhu to her parents.
But before he could even speak, a loud "thump" was heard, and Ye's father and mother immediately knelt on the ground.
Father Ye spoke first:
"Young man, I really want to thank you this time for taking such good care of my daughter!"
"I was worried that she would be mistreated here, but when I saw my daughter's face gradually puffing up, I felt relieved!"
Ye's father's first impression of Pan Tiezhu: fat and big eater.
Upon seeing this image, he immediately assumed Pan Tiezhu was his boss.
after all.
This really fits the image of a restaurant owner.
Ye's mother chimed in, "Yes! You're a good person, thank you!"
Upon hearing these words, several big question marks appeared above Pan Tiezhu's head.
Is this a way of treating me like the boss and thanking me in a special way?
But something about these words of thanks just doesn't sound right...
But thinking about it carefully...
The uncle and aunt looked like honest people; they probably didn't know many of the popular internet memes.
Besides.
He also felt the warmth and hospitality from the eyes and actions of his uncles and aunts.
"Oh dear, uncles and aunts, get up quickly!" Pan Tiezhu joked, "If you keep doing this, I'm afraid I'll shorten my lifespan!"
"Oh! Is that so?"
"No, that's not what we meant."
This statement really worked.
Mr. and Mrs. Ye immediately stood up.
Hello, Uncle and Aunt!
Pan Tiezhu patted his chest and introduced:
"My name is Pan Tiezhu. You can call me Tiezhu or Zhuzi from now on. I am Qiuqiu's colleague."
"colleague?"
Mr. Ye wiped his sweat, realizing he had mistaken the person for someone else.
then
He turned to look at Ye Yiqiu.
That look seemed to be pleading for help.
"Let's get in the car quickly! It's not good to keep standing on the side of the road," Ye Yiqiu said with a smile.
