That day, Gu Wei got up early, which was unusual for him, and picked up Gu Jianguo and the others to go to the morning market.
Once they arrived nearby, Gu Wei found a place to park his car.
Gu Jianguo and the others got off the bus one after another.
Everyone looked toward the morning market not far away.
Stalls lined both sides of the road, bustling with people, and filled with the sounds of vendors calling out their wares. The air was also filled with the aroma of food.
Gu Hongjie sniffed, "I can smell the fried dough twists and sesame cakes! And meat buns, sesame seed cakes, tofu pudding, I want to eat them all."
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
"Aren't you afraid of getting too full from eating so much so early in the morning?"
"Yes, don't be like that, with big eyes and a small belly."
Gu Hongjie said with dissatisfaction, "What?! I'm at the age where I'm growing, and I have a big appetite. I can definitely eat it all. There's no need to waste food!"
Gu Wei smiled and ruffled Gu Hongjie's neat short hair. "Okay, I know you can eat a lot. Then you can try all the breakfasts you like at the morning market!"
Gu Hongjie immediately patted Gu Wei's arm happily, "You're still the best."
So they split into two camps, one in front and one behind.
The vegetables, meat, eggs, and dairy products at the morning market were exceptionally fresh, quickly attracting the attention of Gu Jianguo and his companions who were walking behind them.
Gu Wei looked back, then put his arm around Gu Hongjie's shoulder and continued walking forward.
I would stop and buy some food from time to time as I passed by some food stalls.
In no time, both of them were carrying several plastic bags.
In front of the stall selling fried dough sticks and fried cakes, there were many people waiting to buy them.
The stall owners are a couple, a man and a woman.
The men were in charge of putting the food into the oil, while the women were in charge of bagging it, collecting money, and giving change. They were both very efficient.
These fried glutinous rice cakes with red bean paste filling look delicious, and Gu Hongjie couldn't help but drool.
Let's buy a few more fried cakes!
Gu Wei was also very interested in this chewy food. "Okay, are 10 enough?"
"15, I guess."
“Okay. What about the fried dough sticks?” Gu Wei asked again.
"Come on, let's not go there. We want to eat something else." Gu Hongjie said, glancing at the wonton stall next to him.
Gu Wei subconsciously looked over and saw that the wonton stall was doing very well. Standing there, he could smell the aroma of the broth mixed with dried shrimp and seaweed.
The middle-aged man wearing glasses quickly wrapped wontons.
There was also a pretty girl with pigtails cooking wontons next to the gas stove.
For some reason, Gu Wei felt that the other person looked somewhat familiar.
He was frowning, trying to remember where he had seen it before.
At this moment, Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi came over carrying large and small bags.
"It's not your turn yet!"
"Almost done." Gu Wei pointed to the wonton stall next to him. "Young master, do you guys want some wontons?"
Gu Jianguo glanced at the stall and said, "Two bowls, please. There's a place to sit and eat here."
Li Guizhi smiled and said, "Then you guys continue queuing, we'll go first."
"Okay, you guys go ahead." Gu Wei patted Gu Hongjie, who was eagerly waiting beside him. "Xiao Jie, you go too. I'll be there in a bit."
Gu Hongjie shook his head firmly, "No, I want to wait with you."
Gu Wei chuckled silently and said nothing more.
After Gu Jianguo ordered wontons from the stall owner, the two found a nearby seat and sat down, where they could also keep an eye on Gu Wei and the others.
Li Guizhi nudged Gu Jianguo's arm. "Look how fast they wrap wontons, one in a flash. Can you do that?"
Gu Jianguo chuckled and said, "Why not? But people who specialize in this have definitely trained themselves, otherwise they wouldn't be able to set up a stall."
The bespectacled stall owner looked up at Gu Jianguo but didn't say anything.
But the little girl couldn't help but speak up, saying, "My dad doesn't do this kind of work."
Li Guizhi glanced at the little girl and figured she was about the same age as her son. She asked with a smile, "Little girl, what did your father do before?"
The little girl bit her lip and said in a low voice, "My dad is a teacher."
Gu Jianguo and Li Guizhi were both a little surprised.
I never expected that the person running the wonton stall would be a teacher.
But considering that this situation is not uncommon, I immediately felt relieved.
The other people eating wontons also had various expressions.
The man with glasses instructed, "Xiaoyun, take these two bowls upstairs."
"Okay." Xiaoyun glanced at her father's face and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he wasn't angry.
Gu Wei, who was waiting in line, suddenly narrowed his eyes when he heard that the little girl's name was Xiao Yun.
I just thought this little girl looked familiar, but I never expected...
His mother's name is Shi Qiuyun, and his maternal grandfather, whom he had never met, was a teacher.
Are they all just coincidences?
At this moment, Gu Wei's feelings were particularly complicated.
After gaining the ability to travel between two time periods, he considered searching for his relatives.
However, I didn't have high expectations.
At the time, because of the lack of household registration and introduction letter, they planned to put these matters aside and deal with them later.
Gu Jianguo and his group met through Li Bin entirely by chance.
As for his mother, he had a rather conflicted attitude.
Firstly, we don't know where to look for it, and secondly, we don't know what to do after we find it.
After all, my parents are still quite old, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Gu Hongjie paid close attention to Gu Wei, and noticing his unusual expression, he immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
