There is no shortage of meat at home, and eggs and vegetables can be exchanged in the village. If Tang's mother hadn't asked them to bring some seasonings back, they wouldn't have come here.
"Oh, isn't that the fourth kid from the Tang family?"
Aunt Liu, who was queuing in front, saw them coming and nudged Wang Qiao beside her with her elbow.
Wang Qiao turned around and saw two people in the crowd.
The main reason is that the two of them have too outstanding temperaments, especially the Third Master.
Today he was wearing a black woolen hat, a long black down jacket, and a pair of black high leather boots.
With his fashionable outfit, tall and strong body, and if he adds a pair of sunglasses, the male stars of later generations will look like this when they go out.
This was the second time Wang Qiao had observed the Third Master from such a close distance.
The first time was the day they just returned to the village. She only took a quick glance at him in the crowd and was deeply attracted to the man.
At that time, she didn't know the Third Master's age, but judging from their appearance, she thought they were roughly the same age.
For a moment, she even felt that her first thirty years had been wasted! She had no idea there was such an outstanding man in the world.
The man was tall and majestic, with clear features and deep and sharp eyes. Especially the aura he exuded, which had the majesty and dominance of a superior, as well as the elegance and demeanor of a scholar. She couldn't help but want to get closer to him, but she didn't dare to offend him easily.
That day, her sister-in-law Zhang Xiu'e may have seen through her thoughts, and the next day she asked someone to find out the details of the third master. When she learned that he had been single and had not yet married, Wang Qiao was overjoyed.
However, within a day, her eldest sister-in-law told her that the third master looked down on country women and asked her to give up the idea.
Last night, she didn't sleep well all night. She felt more and more sleepless, tossing and turning, and her mind was full of the first time she saw this man.
She pondered various possibilities in her mind and couldn't help wondering, was this gentleman looking down on country women because he had never seen anyone like her?
Wang Qiao has always been very confident about her appearance!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to charm the young educated city kid who had just gone to the countryside with just a smile.
Although the two did not end up together for some reasons, this did not affect her confidence in her appearance.
Thinking of this, Wang Qiao couldn't help but glance at the man at the end of the line.
The Third Master and Tang Zhan were talking in low voices and didn't notice her.
She combed the hair beside her ear with her fingers, straightened the corner of her clothes, and walked to the back.
"Xiao Tang, are you here to buy things too?"
Because of the incident with Tang Ming, Wang Qiao is also familiar with Tang Zhan.
Seeing Wang Qiao approaching, Tang Zhan couldn't help but glance at the Third Master. He had also heard yesterday that the Wang family had chosen the Third Master.
"Yes! Come to buy seasoning."
Tang Zhan nodded politely and responded.
"Hey, it's just a few things. Don't wait in line! I'm right in front of you. It's almost my turn. I'll buy it for you. It's a piece of cake."
Wang Qiao smiled, and after she finished speaking, she glanced at the Third Master beside Tang Zhan with a charming look.
"This is your wife's uncle, right? He looks like a capable man."
The Third Master didn't know that the woman before him was the heroine he had chosen. Considering that they were all from the Tang family, he politely replied, "Thank you!"
"Then I'll trouble you, Sister Wang Qiao! We just happened to need to buy some other things, so we won't wait here. I'll have my kids pick it up from your house later."
From the moment Wang Qiao came close to him, Tang Zhan had a bad feeling.
He gave Wang Qiao a dollar to buy some seasonings, which was enough.
He had only one thought in his mind at this moment, which was to leave this place of trouble as quickly as possible!
The Third Master was almost pushed out of the crowd by him.
Wang Qiao looked at the backs of the two people leaving, and a ripple appeared in her heart!
This Third Master didn't seem to reject her. She seemed to have just seen him smile at her. If she took the initiative a little more, would he be able to... Wang Qiao's cheeks flushed, and she felt secretly delighted.
"Why are you pushing me, kid? You've broken my old bones!"
The third master didn't understand and felt somewhat dissatisfied after coming out of the grain station.
"With your physique, you can't even keep up with a young man in his twenties. Please don't accuse me of anything!"
Tang Zhan did not forget that on the way here just now, the Third Master jumped three feet high on his skis, as light as a swallow!
"Besides, I'm doing this for your own good." Tang Zhan pursed his lips and said mischievously,
"You still don't know who that lady was just now, right?"
"Who is she?" The Third Master raised his neck. "Who she is has nothing to do with you pushing me?"
Tang Zhan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "That's the girl from the village chief's family who has taken a fancy to you!"
Third Master: “…”
This answer left him speechless!
"Ahem! Where are we going now?" The Third Master coughed dryly and asked to change the subject.
"Go buy some firecrackers!"
The children in the village are very interested in setting off firecrackers. Xiao Ling and Xiao Lie have been envious for a long time. This is the main purpose of their coming to the town today.
Along the way, the two bought sugar-roasted chestnuts, candied haws, sesame candies, sticky sugar melons... and other snacks that are only sold during the New Year.
Uncle San was holding a brown paper bag, walking and eating as he went, unrestrained, and he drank so much alcohol that he looked like an old child!
He hasn't felt the New Year atmosphere like this for many years.
Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly rushed out from the entrance of the alley.
Before Mr. San could react, the paper bag in his hand disappeared and was snatched away by someone.
By the time he reacted, Tang Zhan had already chased out.
The robber was a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
He seemed to have some skills and his reaction was very quick. With Tang Zhan's skills and speed, it took him more than two minutes to knock him to the ground!
Even after being caught, the young man still looked unyielding and desperately used his body to protect the bag of food.
"You're still so young and you're so naughty! How dare you brazenly rob people in the street? How did your family educate you?"
Tang Zhan saw his expression clearly, and thought of the young soldiers who had just joined the team, all of whom were about the same age as him and were able to bravely go to the battlefield, and he was angry at them for not fighting for the right path.
"Let me go!"
The young man struggled, his face full of stubbornness.
"Do you think I want to? If there's no more food, my mother and brother will starve to death! I beg you, please let me give them the food, and then you can beat or arrest them as you please!"
The Third Master also ran over at this time, listened to what he said, and looked at Tang Zhan.
Tang Zhan loosened his grip on him, but his tone remained stern, "Is everything you said true?"
Life in the village was difficult these days, with many people dying of starvation and freezing.
If he was really forced to this point, and judging from what the child said, it was to save his mother and brother, it is not unforgivable.
