Seeing this lively scene, Erye's originally depressed mood was relieved a lot.
At this time, Second Aunt was attracted by a clothing stall on the side of the road.
"Dog, you go shopping first, don't worry about us, just call us when you're done."
"Okay, then Second Master and I will go for a stroll first."
After saying that, Meng Fei and Erye walked towards the depths of the market.
After walking a few steps, Erye came across a stall selling tobacco leaves.
Erye immediately became interested. He squatted down, grabbed the bag of tobacco closest to him, put it under his nose and smelled it.
Suddenly the aroma of grapes rushed into my nose.
Erye's eyes lit up with joy, and he took another deep breath, feeling refreshed immediately.
"Boss, why is your tobacco so fragrant? It smells like wine!"
The boss smiled and explained, "Old man! This is soaked in wine. It tastes soft and has a strong aftertaste. It is more suitable for younger people. I think you must like the kind of tobacco leaves that are pungent and spicy at your age. I recommend this one to you. It's called Old Smoke Cannon!"
As he spoke, the boss took out a bag from the back and handed it to the second master.
"Come here, old man, I have some paper here, take one and try it, if you don't like it, you don't have to pay!"
Erye nodded, rolled up a cigarette skillfully, put it in his mouth and lit it.
With a light puff, a thick smoke instantly filled Erye's mouth, rushing around in his mouth with a strong spicy taste.
Erye's face turned red instantly, and even his eye circles turned slightly red.
But Er Ye did not give up! Instead, he endured the unbearable spicy feeling, inhaled the smoke into his lungs, and then exhaled it from his lungs through his nostrils.
Erye was so excited at this time that he said excitedly: "What a good cigarette!!! It's strong!!!"
The boss stroked his beard and laughed, "Hey, I wasn't kidding you, old man. I won't sell my cigarettes to anyone who doesn't like them!!"
Erye nodded repeatedly: "Boss, how do you sell these cigarettes?"
The boss held up two fingers: "Twenty."
"Twenty-one kilograms!! So cheap!! Give me five kilograms!" Upon hearing the second thing, Erye's eyes lit up.
"Oh my god, old man, what era is this? How can we still buy tobacco leaves for 20 yuan per catty? I mean 21 taels."
When he heard the figure of twenty-one pounds, Erye’s eyes darkened again.
"What! Twenty-one taels! That's so expensive! Oh... Never mind. Just give me one pound first."
Meng Fei had never been interested in cigarettes, but he could see that the Second Master really liked them.
"Boss, I'll buy all your old cigarettes. Let me know how much they cost."
Seeing Meng Fei being so generous, the boss grinned and quickly put the bag on the scale to weigh it.
Seeing this, Erye hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, what are you doing, Gouzi? This bag must be at least seven or eight pounds, and one tael is twenty yuan. How much does so much cost? No, no, boss, we only want one pound, not that much."
"Second Master, please stop arguing with me. It's not the New Year yet, so I won't buy you those milky eight-treasure porridges or anything like that. You don't like them, so I'll just treat this as a New Year gift for you. If you feel bad about it, just give me a big red envelope during the New Year."
After hearing what Meng Fei said, Erye thought about it again and again, and finally compromised.
Dad was able to pack all the tobacco leaves, and he weighed a pound of the wine tobacco that Erye smelled at the beginning and put it in the bag.
"Grandpa! The total is 1680, after deducting the decimal, it's 1600. This pound of wine and tobacco is a gift from me to you. I have to say that your eldest grandson is really filial! I really envy him. If my grandson can be half as good as you when he grows up, I will be satisfied~~"
When Erye heard the number 1,600, he felt a little confused and thought it was too expensive.
But after hearing what the boss said next, my heart warmed and I burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, you, the boss, are really good at talking. Okay, I wish you a prosperous business. We're leaving now."
After that, the two of them continued walking forward, carrying their tobacco leaves.
As they walked, they passed by a cold noodle stall. Since Meng Fei didn't eat much in the morning, he was a little hungry.
In addition, I haven’t eaten grilled cold noodles since I returned home this year, so I plan to buy some to try.
"Boss, give me some grilled cold noodles."
At this time, in the cold noodles cart, the boss was constantly looking around the crowd. When he heard Meng Fei's words, he was immediately startled.
"Ouch!! Aaaaaa!! You want some cold noodles, right? Okay, it'll be ready in a minute."
The boss agreed, clumsily turned on the gas stove under the iron plate, then took out two cold pancakes and placed them on the iron plate.
As he continued to heat the iron plate, the edges of the cold noodles began to curl up slightly, then turned black and burnt.
When the boss saw this, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
He quickly threw the two pancakes into the trash can and said with a smile, "Ouch! I'm so sorry. I didn't pay attention. I'll make you another one."
As he spoke, the boss took out his cell phone and squatted in the car to fiddle with something.
After taking a photo for a while, the boss stood up confidently and took out two more pancakes. This time, before putting them on the iron plate, the boss poured a layer of oil on it.
You know what, after pouring oil on it, the dough is no longer mushy.
"Put the oil in first, then the noodles, beat an egg in, add the ham, quickly, and finally put the aged vinegar..."
The boss muttered some formula while he was working.
At this time, the boss took out an egg and knocked it against the edge of the iron plate.
“Crack!”
The eggshell shattered into pieces, and the egg and skin fell onto the pancake.
The boss was trying in a hurry to pick out the egg skins mixed in, but he forgot the temperature of the iron plate and got burned and screamed in pain.
Meng Fei looked at the boss with a strange expression, and then he found that the boss seemed more and more familiar.
