The man who was all smiles at his wife just a moment ago vanished the moment he heard his sister's words.
"What's up?"
Huo Qing shook her head.
"fine."
"I'm a little worried that something's wrong with your thinking because you smile like a grandfather."
Huo Cheng scoffed coldly.
So there's a reason why he stopped smiling at his sister.
This younger sister can't utter a single kind word.
Huo Qing didn't mind her brother at all. She went up to Yingyue with a smile and asked her what she was going to do.
Should we go to the market?
"Going to the market?"
Yingyue, who was looking for the sack, blinked. "What collection?"
"It's the fishermen on the island. They set a day for exchanging goods, a big market every five days. People from nearby villages would bring their surplus items to the market to exchange for things they didn't have at home or that they desperately needed."
"Oh, is it crowded and fun?"
Yingyue was captivated.
Huo Qing nodded.
Yingyue looked at the sack in her hand.
But what should she do?
She also wants to catch fish.
"Yueyue, why don't we go to the market? It's the first market after the snow melted, maybe there will be a lot of interesting things there."
Huo Cheng made a suggestion from the side.
Yingyue looked at the sack in her hand again. The two thoughts of wanting to catch fish and wanting to play seemed to transform into two little people in her mind, fighting back and forth.
She listens to whoever wins.
In the end, the little guy who wanted to go to the market won.
Yingyue stuffed the sack back into the cupboard.
"Going to the market!"
The ocean is right there, it can't escape.
The fish and shrimp in the sea can't escape either.
She'll go to the market today and come back, and then she can go fishing next Sunday when she has time off.
Um!
That's the decision!
Yingyue nodded firmly.
Huo Cheng was amused by her little expression and was about to go up and take his wife's hand when his younger sister beat him to it.
"I'll ride with you every month."
The market was located on an open space some distance from the family compound, near the dock.
If you were to walk there, it would take at least forty minutes.
But having a bicycle makes all the difference.
It can be much faster.
Huo Qing decided to take her sister-in-law there by bicycle.
Seeing this, Huo Cheng grabbed Yingyue's other wrist.
"Yueyue, I'll take you."
"elder brother?"
The brother and sister each grabbed one of Yingyue's wrists.
Neither of them intended to give up.
Huo Cheng glanced at his sister, asserting his dominance.
"Yueyue is my wife."
Huo Qing also looked completely at ease.
"I know! Of course I know Yueyue is your wife, but brother, you follow my sister-in-law everywhere you go. This will make her have no friends."
"Yueyue is only twenty-one years old, the best age of her life. If you don't let her interact with her peers and keep her following you around all day, do you want her to become an old-fashioned person like you in the future?"
Honestly, Huo Qing felt that Yingyue had caught some of her brother's traits.
They lack the youth and vitality that someone their age should have.
Her brother bears some responsibility.
Old-fashioned Huo Cheng...
Left with no other choice, I could only look at Yingyue.
"Yueyue, are you going to the market with Xiaoqing, or with me?"
After thinking it over, Yingyue finally chose her sister-in-law.
Huo City...
Is it because he's getting old that even his wife doesn't want to hang out with him anymore?
Watching the two little girls happily leave, Huo Cheng couldn't help but sigh deeply, resigned to his fate.
This kind old man couldn't really disturb the little girl from playing.
"Yueyue, wait a minute."
After Huo Cheng turned around, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't given Yingyue any money. He quickly chased after her and gave her all the money in his pocket.
They gave the money, but didn't forget to give instructions.
"Buy whatever you like, no need to save money."
It's been two months since Yingyue arrived on the island.
The things Huo Cheng had prepared were almost gone.
Although there weren't many good things at the market, there were still some trinkets.
I can buy some to pass the time.
Yingyue nodded in agreement.
"I will bring you a gift."
"You must stay home and behave!"
Like a parent who has gone out, she is worried about her 'child' who is staying at home, giving him instructions, coaxing him, and giving him sweet treats.
Huo Cheng felt rather helpless.
I'm thirty years old, and my wife still treats me like a child.
"Go ahead, it'll be late later."
After speaking softly to his wife, he turned to his younger sister beside him and said, "Ride your bike slowly, don't be reckless, don't let Yueyue fall."
Huo Qing chuckled in agreement and pulled Yingyue away.
The two women, an aunt and a sister-in-law, rode their bicycles out of the residential compound to go to the market!
People from nearby villages and residential compounds come to the island's market.
The villagers don't exchange things with each other much; they usually "exchange" the things they bring with them to the people in the family compound.
Before Yingyue and the others even arrived, they could see the bustling market from afar, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, so many people!"
This is the first time I've seen so many people on the island.
Honestly, although joining the military meant being with Huo Cheng every day, surrounded by my good friends and sisters, we were still on an island where development was still incomplete.
Every day, I only see the same few people coming and going.
