Chapter 854 Aged Vinegar
Li Xiang and Li Nian are children, easy to coax.
They believe whatever the adults say.
But Ji Yuanyuan knew that if her grandmother's health had really improved, they would have called home long ago.
After all, there are so many people at home who are worried.
On the way back, the two children were in a much better mood.
Passing by the sweet potato stall, Li Xiang remembered to remind Ji Yuanyuan: "Sister, didn't you promise to buy sweet potatoes for Tangtang? Brother-in-law, stop the car, I'll go down to buy them."
Ji Yuanyuan then realized that she had promised Tangtang when she came out.
There was a parking space nearby, so Qin Mucheng quickly turned the steering wheel: "No need, you guys stay in the car."
The hospital didn't need so many people, so Qin Mucheng followed Ji Yuanyuan and the others home.
There are still a lot of things to deal with at home, and life has to go on.
And Zhang Kun also returned to his hometown.
I finally get back home, and I have to go home to see my parents.
Qin Mucheng parked the car, and Ji Yuanyuan got out of the car first, taking her cell phone.
There was a small tricycle parked on the side of the road opposite, with a stove for roasting sweet potatoes on it.
A woman wrapped tightly in a blanket is looking through the sweet potatoes in the stove.
After getting closer, Ji Yuanyuan discovered that there was a little girl sitting in the driver's seat of the tricycle.
He looked to be about eight or nine years old. He was curled up in his seat, eating candied haws with relish.
Just as she finished the last candied haws, she threw the wooden stick she was stringing the candied haws on to the ground and asked, "Mom, I've finished it. Can I have another one?"
The stall owner looked up and was about to speak when he saw Ji Yuanyuan out of the corner of his eye, so he asked, "Hello, do you want some roasted sweet potatoes? They're freshly baked and still hot."
Ji Yuanyuan took his eyes away from the girl and looked at the sweet potato: "Well, I want all of them. Pack them up for me."
At this time, Qin Mucheng also came over.
He put the scarf around Ji Yuanyuan's neck: "You don't even know how to tie a scarf when you come down."
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Just for a while, it's not cold."
She turned around and saw the stall owner staring at her and Qin Mucheng blankly, holding a white plastic bag in his hand, but he was hesitant to take any action.
"Boss?" Ji Yuanyuan called out in surprise.
The stall owner seemed to come to his senses suddenly. He hurriedly put all the sweet potatoes into a plastic bag and handed it to Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan laughed: "Boss, it seems you haven't weighed it yet."
The boss quickly put the sweet potatoes back on the scale and bent down to press the button on the scale.
As she lowered her head, the scarf around her neck fell off.
The face that was originally covered by the scarf was exposed in front of Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously looked up and said in surprise: "Boss, do we know each other?"
This boss's face looks really familiar.
Besides, the boss’s behavior just now was too weird.
Hearing this, the boss, who was trying to cover the lower half of his face with a scarf, suddenly stopped.
After a moment, she simply took off her scarf and smiled at Ji Yuanyuan: "You are Ji Yuanyuan, right?"
The boss raised her head, and Ji Yuanyuan saw her whole face and remembered it all at once.
The woman in front of me is clearly Shao Xue.
When she was in high school, she felt embarrassed because of Yu Jianian.
After so many years, Shao Xue's appearance has not changed much and she is still beautiful.
However, he looks older than his peers.
"Shao Xue?" Ji Yuanyuan was also a little surprised.
In front, the little girl who had not received an answer stood next to Shao Xue and asked somewhat unhappily, "Mom, can I have the candied haws?"
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the little girl and asked, "Is your daughter this big already?"
Shao Xue smiled awkwardly: "I can't compare with you. I didn't go to college and had children early."
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the little girl who inherited most of Shao Xue's beauty, feeling a little emotional.
Back then, Shao Xue gave so much for Yu Jianian.
In the end, I got nothing and could only marry someone else and have children.
I wonder if she will regret it when she thinks about it now.
"Take this roasted sweet potato and eat it. It's not worth much." Shao Xue said with a smile.
But that smile looked a little awkward.
Although the two were classmates, they not only had no affection for each other during school, but also had some grudges against each other.
There was nothing much to say to each other. Ji Yuanyuan took out a hundred-dollar bill from his wallet and put it on the stove: "Brothers should settle accounts clearly. How can I eat and dine for free?"
After saying that, Ji Yuanyuan picked up the sweet potato on the scale and said, "Shao Xue, goodbye."
"It won't take so much. Wait a moment, I..." Before Shao Xue could finish her words, Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng had already turned and left.
Qin Mucheng took the sweet potato from Ji Yuanyuan's hand, and Ji Yuanyuan stretched out his hand and waved behind him without turning his head.
Shao Xue looked at the backs of the two people and was stunned for a moment.
She saw with her own eyes her former 'rival in love' and the elegantly dressed man get into the luxurious car.
She didn't chase after him.
If you can afford a car like that, how can you care about a few dozen dollars?
If she really chased after him with dozens of dollars, it would just be laughable.
She pursed her lips, took the hundred dollars from the stove and stuffed it into her bag.
The daughter next to her was still looking at the direction where the two people left, and murmured: "Mom, is that your classmate? Her husband is so handsome, like a star."
Shao Xue wrapped the scarf around her neck again with an expressionless face. She pulled it up to cover her face.
"Let's eat some candied haws." After a moment, she whispered.
The little girl reluctantly withdrew her gaze and muttered ignorantly: "You actually have a classmate like that."
Shao Xue tilted her head, "A classmate like that?"
"She drives a luxury car and has a handsome husband, but you're selling sweet potatoes here."
Shao Xue looked at her daughter in front of her and her eyes gradually turned red.
When she saw Ji Yuanyuan just now, she did not regret it.
But her daughter's words made her regret it.
Regret the choice I made.
After getting in the car, Qin Mucheng drove silently towards home.
"Didn't your classmate marry Yu Jianian?" Qin Mucheng suddenly asked halfway.
Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised: "Why do you ask that?"
After a pause, she added, "You still remember Yu Jianian?"
Qin Mucheng snorted softly and said nothing more.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at him like this and laughed.
When they got home, Ji Yuanyuan handed the sweet potato to Li Xiang and said, "You two go home first."
Li Xiang very tactfully pulled Li Nian out of the car.
Only Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng were left in the car.
She reached out and gently pinched Qin Mucheng's cheek: "It's been so many years since I last saw it, and now I still feel jealous when I think about it? How would I know if they are married or not? After graduating from high school, Yu Jianian and I haven't been in touch again."
