Chapter 463: The Unfinished Chicken - The Sickly Young Girl's Daily Meal Eating in the Courtyard
After the family finished their meal, they officially headed home!
"This state-owned hotel is really good!" Lin's mother exclaimed sincerely.
“Otherwise, how can a chef be the chef of a state-owned hotel without some skills?” Lin Qing felt that the chef in the restaurant was the best.
The whole family agrees very much!
The journey back in the afternoon was not in a hurry, and the family planned to take it slowly. They did not take the crowded alleys!
This was proposed by Lin Qing, and the head of the family, Mother Lin, agreed immediately.
Father Lin and Cen Xi were very suspicious when listening to the conversation between the mother and daughter. They couldn't help but look up at the sky. They didn't drink alcohol at noon, did they?
Why are you so ignorant of your own limitations and saying these things?
Father Lin and Cen Xi were both overwhelmed.
"Do we have to go this way?" Father Lin asked again uncertainly.
"How could I be like you and always remember things wrong?" Mother Lin glared at Father Lin's back.
Father Lin quickly smiled ingratiatingly, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault!"
However, Father Lin still asked again, "Why are you going this way for no reason?"
Mother Lin blurted out her answer, "Of course, it was to see if there was anyone hiding in the alley... to replace the farm products... ah!"
Father Lin: “…”
There are people like this, but don’t you think that as the Chinese New Year approaches, there are more robbers and thieves in these alleys?
Cen Xi and Lin's father had the same idea, but it was obvious that Lin Qing had the same idea as Lin's mother and had not thought of this at all.
He also urged Cen Xi to catch up, "Hurry up!"
Father Lin and Cen Xi were extremely helpless. Father Lin stopped talking and planned to have a good talk with Mother Lin.
Seeing this, Cen Xi also stopped.
Mother Lin was confused, "No, why did you two stop?"
Father Lin carefully considered his tone and said: "My dear, your idea is very good, but have you ever thought about..."
"Hmm? What?"
"That is, there may indeed be those people you mentioned in these alleys! But is it possible that there are even more robbers, thieves, and other hooligans in there?"
Lin's mother and Lin Qing's faces turned pale. They indeed had not considered such a problem!
Lin's mother quickly changed her mind, "Then let's not go to that alley, let's go straight to the main road!"
"Okay!" Father Lin quickly changed direction.
Mother Lin thought, she must be too excited today and even forgot such common sense. Yes, that must be the case!
Cen Xi also followed with Lin Qing.
Although Lin Qing already knew how naive her and her mother's thoughts were just now, she still felt inexplicably upset.
He stretched out his hand and suddenly reached Cen Xi's waist.
Cen Xi only felt a chill on his back.
Before he could think clearly, "hiss--" his waist was hurt.
As the bike swayed, Lin Qing quickly let go and hugged his waist tightly.
"Ouch! Qingqing, please at least say something next time you do this!" Don't do it so suddenly. He was afraid that he might accidentally lose his grip on the handlebars and end up dropping her.
Lin Qing did not receive Cen Xi's accusation as expected, but instead received these words, and she instantly felt guilty.
She felt like she was being unreasonable, but she actually didn't know where her anger came from!
It just exists for no apparent reason.
Lin Qing lay down behind Cen Xi and whispered, "I'm sorry, Brother Nan!"
"It's okay! Qingqing, you're very good like this. Next time, no matter how angry you are, you have to vent it out like you did today, okay?" Cen Xi hoped that Lin Qing could be more willful in front of him. He liked the willful Lin Qing.
Lin Qing's face turned red, and the guilt in her heart was instantly covered by shame.
…
In the end, the four of them did not go to the alley, but returned along the main road.
However, maybe God is blessing them!
They really met the farmer that Lin's mother and Lin Qing hoped to meet.
Just a few streets away from their home, there were already quite a few people gathered.
Lin's mother and Lin Qing's eyes lit up instantly, and they both patted the person in front of them on the back at the same time.
Lin's father and Cen Xi quickly stopped the car, and Lin's mother and Lin Qing quickly got out and ran over.
"Auntie Li, what are you doing?" Lin Qing ran to Auntie Li and asked.
"Huh? Why are you here too?" Aunt Li looked up.
"I just happened to see you guys on my way home."
"Oh! Then you guys should come over quickly and take a look. This lady is coming with two large baskets of chickens."
Lin's mother and Lin Qing's eyes were already bright with excitement, "How do you calculate it?"
At this moment, the older sister spoke, "Good afternoon, everyone! Good afternoon!"
"Hey! Stop wasting time and tell me how much this chicken costs."
"Hahaha! Okay, okay, I won't be polite anymore! This chicken is four dollars!"
The people around them held their breath and the air suddenly became quiet.
Four dollars?
Did they really hear correctly?
Are there really chickens that cost four bucks each?
Is this elder sister really not lying?
They looked down at the chickens in the basket again. They were quite big. Did they really only cost four dollars?
The older sister was a little worried, maybe she paid too high a price?
Why is no one talking?
The aunts who were gathered around looked at each other and then used their best skills - bargaining.
"Hey, girl! Can you give me a discount? If we buy more, you can give me a discount!"
The corners of the smiling face of the older sister straightened a little, and she laughed in her heart!
Damn you! Four dollars for a big fat chicken, isn't that cheap enough?
I'm so angry!
No, I can't be angry! There are more important things!
She forced another smile, "No, this is cheap enough!"
Haha! Of course they know it’s cheap enough! But aren’t they used to bargaining?
Lin's mother also joined in, "Why don't you give me a cheaper price? How about this, I buy ten and you can give me one for free!"
The lady suddenly thought that this proposal was quite good as it neither reduced the price nor caused too much loss.
"Okay, that's it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, several aunts around her rushed over!
Mother Lin was quick with both hands and grabbed two big fat chickens that had been tied up. She threw them to Lin Qing and said, "Sister, I'll take the chickens first and I'll give you the money later!"
"OK!"
Lin's mother moved faster and soon caught eleven fat chickens. After that, she quickly took out money from her crotch, counted a few, took out forty yuan and stuffed it into the older sister's hand, fearing that she would regret it!
After that, he quickly called Lin Qing to help carry the eleven big fat chickens to Lin's father and Cen Xi.
However, these eleven chickens were too heavy for two people to carry. Lin Qing shouted, "Brother Nan, come here quickly, come here quickly!"
Cen Xi ran over and was instantly surprised to see so many chickens on the ground!
They couldn't see what was going on inside from the outside, and were blocked by people!
"Stop looking! Help quickly!"
"Are these all ours?" Cen Xi pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, a look of disbelief on his face.
"Yeah." Lin Qing nodded.
