Liu Xiaojun sighed inwardly, the black market is still better, ticket scalpers have plenty of tickets.
Let Liu Huizhen and Tangtang make one first, and then you can buy one for yourself on the black market later!
I returned home with a large basket of things on my back. Before I even stepped into the yard, I could smell the aroma of authentic pickled fish.
Liu Xiaojun sniffed it and it was so authentic!
I have to say that Sha Zhu’s cooking skills are pretty good.
As soon as I stepped into the yard, I was surrounded by the three uncles: "Xiaojun, are you out shopping again?"
Liu Xiaojun: "Yes, Third Uncle, it's so cold, you are not here to arrest me, are you?"
The door god, Uncle San, hangs around the door all day long, always trying to take advantage of others.
However, this old man is not a bad person. He has a large group of people at home who need food and drink, and the teacher's salary is not high. He really can't not spend the money carefully.
Last time, the first and second uncles came to my house and tried to force me to deliver meals to all the elderly people in the nursing home. The third uncle also came over to say hello.
Liu Xiaojun's impression of him improved a lot.
The third uncle said attentively, "Xiaojun, is it heavy for you to carry the backpack every day?"
Liu Xiaojun's alarm bells immediately rang. Every time this old man had this expression, he meant to plot against someone. I wonder what he was plotting this time?
Liu Xiaojun took a few steps back: "I'm fine, what happened?"
Seeing Liu Xiaojun step back, the third uncle's face froze, but he quickly continued, "Third uncle is worried that it's too tiring for you to carry the basket every day. Look, I have a bicycle at home. If you need it, I'd lend it to you."
When Liu Xiaojun heard the third uncle mention the bicycle, he knew what the uncle was up to.
"I have to pay for it once, right?"
The third uncle clapped his hands and said, "Xiaojun, you are so smart. That's right! But it shouldn't be a big deal for you, only thirty cents a time."
"Three cents?" Liu Xiaojun had originally had a slightly improved impression of the third uncle, but when he heard the word "three cents", he immediately laughed out loud.
This bicycle safe is real, but it will just gather dust and has no value.
If it costs only a few cents each time, Liu Xiaojun thinks it's enough.
These three cents are really a rip-off these days.
"Uncle, do you know what you can buy with three cents? Corn flour is ten cents a pound right now. Buying three pounds is enough for the whole family to eat for two days!"
The third uncle suddenly became unhappy: "Hey, you kid."
Liu Xiaojun didn't continue listening and walked straight home.
As soon as she entered the door, Liu Huizhen immediately put a rabbit fur scarf on Liu Xiaojun.
"Hey kid, why did you forget your scarf when you went out? It's so cold outside. Come in quickly."
"Yushui, get a basin of warm water for your Xiaojun." Liu Huizhen was busy.
"Okay." Yu Shui immediately went out with the basin.
Liu Xiaojun hurriedly said: "No, it's okay..."
Before he could finish his words, He Yushui had already left, not giving him a chance to speak.
"Mom, I'm young and strong and can withstand the cold." Liu Xiaojun said helplessly.
Liu Huizhen always treated him like a child.
"Okay, okay, you can withstand the cold. When you get older, you will know how uncomfortable it is to be cold. Most of your neck is exposed. Don't get cervical spondylosis at such a young age." Liu Huizhen muttered, but still put on the scarf.
Liu Xiaojun smiled helplessly and said, "I know."
At this time, Yu Shui came with a wash basin: "Brother Xiaojun, wash your hands quickly, you see your hands are frozen red."
Not only had no one noticed it, but now Liu Huizhen also discovered it.
She touched Liu Xiaojun's cotton-padded jacket: "Oh, this cotton-padded jacket is too thin. It's my fault for not paying attention."
"We have cotton at home anyway. Take off this dress tonight and I'll unravel the thread and make new clothes for you."
"Brother, make me a new cotton-padded jacket."
"The pickled fish is here. Come on, everyone, please make way. Today, the chef specially made the pickled fish. Come and try it." Sha Zhu also came in with a big pot of pickled fish.
At this time, the small room was crowded with five people.
In the dim light, a large bowl of pickled fish was placed in the center of the rectangular black table. The glossy sour soup was dotted with the bright red of peppercorns and chili peppers. The steaming smell of fireworks mixed with the light filled the entire long table.
The sour, spicy and fragrant smell penetrated into everyone's stomach, arousing their appetite and making them feel hungry all of a sudden.
In the past, every time I went home, I was alone and lonely.
Now, the family of three has become five, and it is very warm.
Liu Xiaojun suddenly felt like staying here for the rest of his life.
A light flashed in his eyes: "You guys sit down, I'll go serve the food."
"You sit down, I'll go get the food. After eating your pickled fish, you should let me run errands for you." Sha Zhu held down Liu Xiaojun who was about to get up, and turned around to get the food.
Tangtang said in a baby voice: "Brother Zhuzi is serving the rice, I will serve it to everyone."
The rain jokingly said, "Go wash your dirty hands quickly, or you might eat some bugs again."
Tangtang then spread out her hands, looked at her own black hands, then turned her head to look at everyone else's white hands. Her face flushed red, and she immediately jumped off her seat and ran to the side:
"I'm going to wash my hands."
Sha Zhu came back with the meal and looked at this warm family scene with tears in his eyes.
I lost my parents and have no relatives or friends around me. I and Yu Shui have always lived a very lonely life.
Since I came into contact with Widow Liu's family, I found that they are all very warm people.
He also felt the power of maternal love in Liu Huizhen.
If possible, I really want to be together like this for the rest of my life!
