Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Go to the scrap yard.
When the little fat boy felt that he had learned some strange knowledge, Liu Shuangcui beside him patted Mu Fugui on the shoulder and whispered, "We are outside, don't talk nonsense."
In public, what father would teach his daughter to kick someone in the crotch?
Mu Fugui opened his mouth and was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he suddenly saw the figure of his boss.
Mu Zhuo ran in from the outside of the crowd with sweat on his forehead. Seeing that his family was standing in the middle, he looked anxious and asked, "What's going on?"
He just heard the commotion inside and didn't understand what happened.
Mu Zhuo glanced at the man with his legs tightly closed, his eyes were particularly sharp.
Zhao Meihua remained calm, "It's okay, Mian Ya helped catch a thief."
Mu Zhuo frowned, "Why did we encounter thieves again?"
When they were on the stairs before, Nie Sihui was closest to Mu Mian and saw a little bit of it. She turned around and told her partner the whole story.
While they were talking, the staff nearby had already dragged the thief up and said they were sending him to the police station.
Among the onlookers nearby, no matter if they had lost something before or today, every one of them planned to go along.
Since Xiaoying and his grandchildren’s things were not stolen, they did not plan to go.
When Mu Zhuo saw that none of his family members were hurt, his frown finally relaxed.
Xiaoying raised his head and said, "Uncle Mu, isn't my cousin here?"
He has a good memory!
He remembered that his cousin went out today just to look for Uncle Mu.
Mu Zhuo realized belatedly that the elder of the Old Wen family was still here, so he lowered his head and replied to Xiaoying, "He went to look for your grandfather."
Then he greeted Wu Xiangshan again, "Auntie."
Although they had never met each other, they had both heard of each other.
Wu Xiangshan, who had not found a chance to speak just now, smiled widely, "
Xiao Mu, right? Xiao Zhan was talking about you to me and his uncle yesterday. I didn’t expect to see you today. What a coincidence. ”
Mu Zhuo was about to say something when his own father interrupted him.
Mu Fugui said cheerfully, "It's just a coincidence. I ran into this little kid and Xiao Wen when I was visiting the zoo yesterday. I didn't expect to meet them here again today."
Wu Xiangshan gathered all her hair back, looking very decent, "It's all fate."
There were fewer people around now. After a few polite greetings between the adults, Wu Xiangshan took Xiaoying to thank Mu Mian.
Xiaoying was obviously a little shocked by Mu Mian's previous moves. He raised his head and pulled Mu Mian, calling her "Sister Mian Mian" all the time, looking very happy.
The closeness is obvious.
He liked this beautiful sister yesterday, and today she helped him beat the bad guys.
The bad guy fell down with just a pull and a kick. It's so awesome!
He wants to be this awesome in the future! !
The little fat boy held Mu Mian, his face full of admiration, and he had no idea how dangerous it would be if the thief had punched him on the head.
Although the child didn't realize it, Wu Xiangshan, the grandmother, saw it clearly at the time.
It was almost noon.
Wu Xiangshan looked at Mu Mian and smiled the kindest smile possible. "Xiaoying's grandfather will be back from get off work soon. The timing is perfect. Come to my house for lunch."
The little fat boy was very supportive of his grandma's suggestion and jumped up and down on the spot, "Sister Mianmian, come on, come to my house. Although my grandma's cooking is not as good as the ones in restaurants outside, it is still very delicious, better than my grandpa's cooking. Even dogs won't eat my grandpa's cooking."
Mu Mian: “………………”
It's also very sincere and filial!
Mu Mian smiled, then turned his head to look at his grandmother.
There are so many people in her family, it’s not appropriate.
Zhao Meihua naturally shared the same idea as her granddaughter and smiled at Wu Xiangshan, "That's too much trouble. We won't bother you, big sister. We have to catch the bus soon."
How can you drag your family to someone else's house to eat near mealtime? It's so embarrassing.
Wu Xiangshan was very enthusiastic. "It's not a big deal. It's just a matter of adding an extra pair of chopsticks."
The two of them chatted back and forth for quite a while.
In the end, of course, Zhao Meihua still did not agree to go to that person's house.
Wu Xiangshan wanted to thank the little girl, but the timing seemed inappropriate, so she had to give up regretfully.
Before they parted, she took Mu Zhuo and Mu Mian, brother and sister, and said a few more words to them, asking them to come to her house for a visit next time they came to the provincial capital.
Mu Mian naturally agreed, but as for when the next time would be, that was unknown.
In just a short while, the thief had already been taken to the public security bureau by the department store staff, dragged and carried all the way.
There were so many people there at the time, and everyone saw it clearly, so there was no need for Mu Mian and the others to go over and take statements.
After parting with Xiaoying and his grandson, the family walked towards the photo studio, intending to see if the photos had been developed.
If you washed it in advance, it would be better to pick it up early and go to the station earlier.
On the way, Comrade Mu Fugui exclaimed, "That old lady is really enthusiastic."
Mu Mian glanced at his biological father.
Well, the seniority hierarchy among adults is also quite confusing.
Her grandmother calls her "Big Sister" and her father calls her "Big Sister".
The main point is that everyone shouts their own words.
Liu Shuangcui: "I just want to thank you, my daughter."
Mu Mian: "It's just something that comes to hand. I saw an older man nearby who seemed to be ready to help, but he wasn't as fast as me."
Zhao Meihua sighed, "You little kids are really too brave."
Mu Fugui: "What's that phrase called? Something about ox and tiger?"
Mu Mian answered his father thoughtfully, "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger."
Mu Fugui looked as if he had suddenly realized something. "Yes, yes, that's it!"
Liu Shuangcui glanced at her daughter and said, "She is just a little calf. I think she can charge forward even if there is a tiger on the other side."
Mu Mian held onto her own mother, leaned on her shoulders, and smiled sweetly, "No, I can't beat a tiger."
It's a pity for her life!
Liu Shuangcui snorted, "It seems that he still has some ideas."
Mu Mian puffed out his chest, "Quite a lot!"
The family chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the photo studio.
Unfortunately, they were not lucky today and the photos have not been developed yet. The technician said they could pick them up in the afternoon, so they really could only pick them up in the afternoon.
The photographer here was also an old man. Mu Fugui stood there and chatted with him in a very familiar manner, "Big brother, we have to wait for a few more hours. Look, we have families to support. If we are late, we may miss the bus. Can you add an extra hour?"
The old man said: "I can't add it. You have already expedited it."
The old man was also cheerful. "Don't worry, brother. It will take at most an hour. I promise to wash it for you. You won't be late for the bus."
He also gave some advice, "It's already noon, aren't you going to eat? I heard from the young couple who came to take pictures just now that the state-owned restaurant has beef buns at noon, but they're not often available at other times. Why don't you go get two before going back?"
Mu Fugui became interested, "Oh, it's beef. I don't usually get to eat it."
The old man said: "That's right, this is the only time I've encountered this in more than a month."
Mu Fugui: "Then we have to try it no matter what. Where are we going?"
The restaurant they went to eat yesterday was near the zoo, and they had never been to this one before.
The old man pointed and said, "Just go to the left and go straight. You will arrive in a quarter of an hour. I think it will open soon."
It's not time to open yet, so Mu Fugui is in no hurry to go. He chats with others for a while, "Big Brother, don't you guys take a break at noon?"
The old man shook his head, "No, I can take a nap when there is no one around."
Not everyone comes to take pictures every day, sometimes we just take a nap all day.
While Mu Fugui was chatting with someone, Mu Mian and a few others found a seat nearby and sat in a row, also chatting about random things.
Liu Shuangcui took out her food coupons and counted them. "It's hot this day, and the buns won't last long. Let's buy one each to try."
Originally, I planned to eat some pastries I bought earlier to fill my stomach at noon.
The old lady made the decision, "Okay, we've spent a lot of money today, so use the tickets sparingly."
Mu Zhuo searched his pockets and said, "I have more."
Liu Shuangcui glared, "It's not like it's hot in your trouser pocket, so just keep it in your pocket if you have it. You have to spend it all, right? You three are really the same, every penny counts."
Mu Fugui turned his head, with an expression that said, "You don't understand this." "Just think of a way to earn more after you spend it. This thing is good for you if you eat it."
Mu Mian nodded his head and said, "That's right!"
The old man in the photo studio twitched his eyes, obviously not agreeing with this theory, but he didn't say anything.
Mu Fugui was a person who never cared about what others thought. He rubbed Mu Mian's little head and said, "Let's go buy some buns with Dad!"
Mu Mian stood up, "Okay!"
She had just stood up when she caught a glimpse of a man pulling a cart on the road. There were some tattered boxes and books piled on it. She didn't know where he was going.
Mu Mian suddenly had an idea and became interested. She turned around and asked the old man in the photo studio, "Uncle, is there a scrap recycling station near you?"
The old man was fiddling with something at the table next to him. When he heard this, he casually replied, "Yes, there is one. It's at the back. Usually, all the waste is pulled over there."
Mu Mian: "Just go through the alley next to it?"
The old man said: "Yes, turn left at the fork in the road and walk a little further and you will arrive."
Mu Mian's eyes sparkled, "Thank you, uncle."
She had been thinking about going to the waste collection station in the commune to get some broken bottles or something, but she forgot about it when she saw the job openings that day, and later she never found time to go.
It was a coincidence that she went there today, as she had never been to the scrap collection station in the provincial capital.
Now that I have time and am close by, I can go and have a look.
Mu Mian said happily, "Dad, you and big brother go buy some buns. I want to go to the scrap collection station."
Mu Fugui didn't understand. "It's a mess inside, how can it get better? State-owned restaurants are good, and the buns must be delicious."
Zhao Meihua smiled, "She just likes those tattered things, you know that."
Mu Fugui: "Okay then, Boss, you come with me, will you go, wife?"
Liu Shuangcui shook her head. "I'm not going. I'm too lazy to go. There are so many things. Why should I carry them around? Mom and I will just rest here for a while."
Mu Fugui commanded, "Then let the boss and little Nie go."
Then he turned to Mu Mian and said, "My girl, I will go with you. We are unfamiliar with this place, so don't get lost."
He kept doing this, which made the old lady laugh. "It's not a big deal. You spent so much time on it."
Although Mu Mian felt that she would not get lost on such a short distance, she did not reject her father's kindness, "Okay!"
After saying that
He pulled Comrade Mu Fugui's arm and said, "Dad, let's go quickly. We will definitely be back before Big Brother and the others."
Mu Fugui cooperated very well. He took a step and instantly ran three meters away with his daughter.
Of course Mu Zhuo didn't pull his partner's arm, and the two of them were calm and unhurried.
Behind the photo studio.
The father and daughter quickly found a scrap recycling station.
It was much bigger than the one in the commune and was a mess inside. The cartload of waste just now happened to have been pulled in, and two or three people were unloading it together.
A lesbian who looked to be in her forties turned her head and glanced at the father and daughter. "Buying old newspapers?"
Mu Mian smiled and said, "I'm not going to buy newspapers. I just want to see if there are any old boxes or something that can be used."
The aunt pointed inside and said, "Look for it yourself."
This scrap collection station looks quite large, probably because it is close to the city center.
Of course, it's also quite messy.
In some places, the garbage was piled so high that there was no place to step.
Mu Mian just wanted to symbolically find two or three things to accompany her copper bowl, so she didn't go to those places and just looked around casually.
There were some books piled in the corner, and Mu Fugui rummaged through them, muttering to his daughter, "There's a high school book here, and your eldest brother has the same one."
Mu Mian's eyes lingered on the pile of broken plates and bowls beside him. Hearing this, he turned around and glanced at them. "Maybe someone didn't want them anymore, so they just sold them as waste paper."
In recent years, people have not paid much attention to these textbooks, and it is normal to sell or throw them away.
In the future, it will probably be difficult to find this book.
Mu Fugui patted the dust off the book and said, "It looks quite new."
Mu Mian smiled and said, "Then you take it, Dad. You can take a look at it with Mom when you have time."
While Mu Mian was chatting casually, he bent down and picked up a small plate. Many things here were either chipped or cracked, but this small plate was still fine.
Mu Fugui held the book and said, "I can't read it."
After saying that, he looked at what was in Mu Mian's hand and asked, "What are you doing picking up these things, girl?"
Mu Mian waved it, "It looks nice, it looks like a small fan~"
Mu Fugui didn't quite understand, but he stood by his daughter unconditionally, "If it looks good, keep it. I guess it's worth only two cents at best."
If it's new it definitely wouldn't be this price, but if it's been used by someone else it's not worth much.
The father and daughter chatted casually. Mu Mian had previously told the aunt in charge that she wanted to see if there were any old boxes that could be used.
I was just talking casually, but I didn't expect that she would actually see it by accident.
It is much newer than the one that had the golden melon seeds hidden in it before, and there is no damage to it. Apart from being a little dirty, there is nothing wrong with it.
Mu Fugui also thought that his daughter was looking for a box, so when he saw her pick one up, he asked, "Have you chosen? Let's go back now? I think your brother and the others will be back soon."
In addition to this box and the small plate, Mu Mian also picked up a small pony-shaped toy.
She didn't take the other broken bowls and bottles. She might cut her hands by accident if she wasn't careful with those chipped things, so there was no need to do that.
Mu Mian nodded his head and said, "Go back, go back now, I'm so hungry!"
After she finished speaking, she took a step forward.
As a result, after taking just two steps, Mu Mian noticed with his sharp eyes that there was a small, intact cup in the corner two meters away. It looked like it was made of porcelain.
Mu Mian went over and picked it up.
Mu Fugui followed behind his daughter and glanced down, "What is that?"
Mu Mian raised his hand and showed it to Comrade Mu Fugui, "A small cup."
The inside of the small cup was dirty, but the pattern printed on the outside was quite pretty, with big blue flowers surrounding the cup.
I don't know what it is used for, but it doesn't look like it is for drinking water. It is also too small and it is gone in just a few sips.
Mu Fugui: "Who brought it for drinking?"
Mu Mian smiled, "It's possible. This flower is quite pretty."
Mu Fugui also said, "If it looks good, keep it!"
Of course Mu Mian had to be kept. The drama of an antique emerging from a pile of junk had to continue.
While the father and daughter were walking around for a while, all the things on the cart had been unloaded.
The auntie didn't think it was strange that Mu Mian picked up three small things. She just looked up and glanced at them casually. "I'll give you five cents for these three, three cents for the box, and the book for nothing. Just take it away."
Mu Mian felt in his pocket, counted out thirty-five cents and handed it over, "Thank you, Auntie~"
The aunt waved her hand and went back to do other things.
As soon as Mu Mian came out of the scrap collection station, his stomach growled twice.
After walking around for a whole morning, I was a little hungry.
Mu Mian silently quickened his pace, but after taking two steps, he found that his father had not caught up with him. He turned around and saw Comrade Mu Fugui banging on the small box.
Mu Mian stopped and asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Mu Fugui lowered his head and whispered, "Let me see if it's the same box as the one you had before, with golden melon seeds hidden inside as well."
Mu Mian: “………………”
Although Mu Mian thought it was impossible, he still leaned over and whispered, "Is there?"
Mu Fugui was very sorry, "It seems not."
Mu Mian: "Not that normal."
Mu Mian pulled Comrade Mu Fugui's arm and said, "Don't think about the golden melon seeds, Dad. Your daughter will soon have a face as scaly as melon seeds from hunger."
It was the first time that Mu Fugui heard such a statement, and he laughed out loud at his daughter's description.
