The next day, Long Aotian took Hu Yuying to other places to attend the market.
This time, Long Aotian did not stay at the stall, but kept wandering around several surrounding clothing stalls.
Hu Yuying sat obediently on the small stool, watching Long Aotian handing out cigarettes and chatting at the stall. No idea what they were talking about, but they were all smiling happily.
When the market started to attract people, Long Aotian returned to his stall and turned on the loudspeaker.
The devilish hawking voice and cheap price immediately attracted many people's attention.
The whole morning was spent in such busyness.
At lunch time.
Long Aotian took a few pieces of clothing and went to several other stalls.
After the discussion, he came back with one of the middle-aged men.
Hu Yuying then realized that Brother Long had given all the remaining goods, including short-sleeved shirts at ten yuan and trousers at fifteen yuan, to this uncle.
"If it weren't for the fact that I have to report to school, I would really like to sell for two more days." Long Aotian squatted on the ground, counting the number of clothes one by one, and said with a smile.
"I can't tell. I really can't tell." The uncle smoked while counting the goods that Long Aotian had ordered.
The social aura of Long Aotian, and the way he passed cigarettes and chatted and laughed.
If he hadn't said he was still a student, the uncle wouldn't have been able to tell.
There were a few clothes of different colors left, and Long Aotian kept them: "We will wear these ourselves, that's all."
After counting the quantity, the uncle readily took out the money and paid the bill.
Business people are very shrewd. He can still make a profit at this price. The most important thing is that his stall is nearby, so the two young men sold a lot in the morning.
After collecting the money, Long Aotian took Hu Yuying away.
Before leaving, I vaguely heard: [ran away with my sister-in-law...]
Long Aotian and Hu Yuying couldn't help but laugh when they heard the sound.
"Brother Long, where are we going now?"
"Of course we are going home now."
After returning home, Long Aotian put all the trivial things on the tricycle and would take them all back later.
"Brother Long, come and have dinner." Hu Yuying lifted the bamboo curtain and called softly at Long Aotian who was still busy.
"Coming." Long Aotian put down what he was holding, clapped his hands and walked over.
"Brother Long, go wash your hands first. I have already served the food."
After washing his hands, Long Aotian returned to the living room. Looking at Hu Yuying who was staring blankly with one hand on her chin, he smiled and said, "What are you standing there for? Come and eat."
He thought Hu Yuying had not yet adapted to the feeling of suddenly having free time.
"Are you feeling a bit uncomfortable with having nothing to do all of a sudden?"
"I tell you, cherish this short and leisurely time. When you graduate, there will be a time when you will be too busy to stop..."
"Brother Long."
Hu Yuying called out softly, then looked up at Long Aotian, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"What's wrong?"
Facing Long Aotian's question, Hu Yuying opened her red lips slightly: "Brother Long, I, I may have to go home for a while, and I can't help you cook for the time being."
Hu Yuying wanted to go home and visit, but she was a little worried about Long Aotian.
The last time I saw Brother Long on the street, we went home together.
Brother Long drank two bowls of the lean meat porridge he made himself.
Having known Brother Long for such a long time, Hu Yuying also has a little understanding of Long Aotian's family situation.
Two grown men, rough guys, I'm always worried that they can't take care of themselves...
(This highlights the importance of having a woman in the family...)
"Oh no! I thought something was wrong and you got so nervous. I was shocked!"
"Don't worry, I can still take care of myself, right?"
Even though I said that, I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart. Although in Hu Yuying's place, I really seemed to be the head of the family and didn't have to worry about anything...
"Tell me when you leave, and I'll see you off."
"No need, Brother Long. You really, really, really have helped me a lot. I can do it myself..."
For some reason, Long Aotian suddenly felt that these words were like his final farewell.
"Okay, the little follower has grown up and it's time for him to become independent." Long Aotian joked, but it seemed... not that funny.
The sunset ends.
Long Aotian backed the tricycle out the door.
"I'm leaving."
"Okay, Brother Long, drive slowly."
Watching Brother Long leaving, Hu Yuying mustered up her courage and said, "Brother Long, I'll be back soon, and I'll cook for you then."
The tricycle went farther and farther away. Amid the roar, Hu Yuying took two steps forward, breathing slightly, not knowing whether Brother Long heard it or not.
Until I could no longer see Brother Long.
Only then did Hu Yuying come to her senses, return to her home and start packing her things.
There's actually nothing worth picking up.
A backpack, some cash, a book, two photos, and two sets of clothes.
The other side.
After Long Aotian parked the car and unloaded the things in it, he returned to the room.
The old man hasn't come back yet and the house is empty.
Take off your clothes and prepare to take a shower first.
After taking a shower, I returned to my room, lay on the bed and let out a sigh.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw a box of biscuits on the stool.
And placed around the stools were a few unattractive-looking "rabbit" biscuits (picked out specifically for fear that they would hurt my teeth).
"I stole Hu Yuying's biscuits today. I should buy her something to eat on the way. Otherwise, with her petty stinginess, she'll probably go hungry on the way."
Thinking of this, Long Aotian nodded secretly: "I am really a good brother who works hard!"
Get on the bike and pedal as hard as you can.
After arriving at the supermarket at the intersection, we stopped.
Park the car and walk into the supermarket.
Not long after Long Aotian entered, a figure carrying a backpack walked out from the corner of the road.
When passing by the supermarket, he glanced at the bicycle parked aside, then looked away and continued walking forward.
After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but stop and look back again. This time, a hint of doubt flashed in his beautiful eyes.
But without thinking too much, he turned around and continued walking forward.
The moment I turned the corner and walked onto the main road, I inadvertently looked back again.
Long Aotian came out carrying a large bag of snacks: "This should be enough for us to eat."
After hanging it on the bicycle, Long Aotian prepared to leave in a hurry.
Just getting started.
"Brother Long, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Swish! The car braked suddenly!
Long Aotian looked back.
Then I saw Hu Yuying, who was carrying a backpack, breathing slightly heavily, but had a bright smile.
Hu Yuying smiled, panted, and her heart was beating wildly...
