Chapter 69 I should have cooperated with you in the performance but I turned a blind eye
After lunch, the two walked on the street because Linzhou said he would go to the school’s music classroom to practice in the afternoon.
Although Jiang Xiyue also has a piano at home, the little girl thought that there was no one at school now, so she and Linzhou could be alone in school, and it was a music classroom, which was a good idea.
The snow had stopped today. The girl held Linzhou's arm and moved carefully on the ground.
Just now Jiang Xiyue accidentally stepped on the marble floor. Children in the north all know that marble floors with snow on them are smoother than ice.
When being grabbed by Linzhou, this was the only thought in Jiang Xiyue's mind.
No need to hurt your butt...
She didn't want to feel pain for several days after falling, even though she inevitably fell every winter.
When I was a flag-raiser in elementary school, I fell on my butt as soon as I stepped onto the flagpole and was laughed at by other children.
Holding Linzhou's arm, the girl felt at ease.
At least he wouldn't fall. When he walked to the gate of a primary school, a small vendor selling corn appeared on the street. Jiang Xiyue smelled the scent and immediately let go of his hand.
"Zhou Zhou, please don't move around here. I'm going to buy some corn to eat."
"I'll go buy it." Linzhou grabbed the hood on Jiang Xiyue's down jacket and forcibly pulled it back.
The captured girl didn't say anything and followed Linzhou again.
The man selling corn was an old man with deep wrinkles on his face and hot breath coming out of his mouth. When he saw the two of them, he quickly rubbed his hands and gave an honest smile.
"Bring your sister out to play. My corn is super sweet. It's cooked with white sugar."
"Uncle, are you sure it's white sugar and not saccharin?" Although Linzhou said this, he still squatted down and took two from the pot himself.
The uncle's expression froze for a moment, then he smiled honestly, "How can that be possible? This is next to an elementary school, and they are all for children to eat. White sugar is better than saccharin. I can just add 50 cents and the cost will be recovered."
After saying this, the uncle opened the oven next to him, which was converted from a large oil barrel. He took out a sweet potato, put it in a bag, and squatted next to Jiang Xiyue.
"Little sister, what grade are you in? Uncle will give you a roasted sweet potato to eat and warm your hands at the same time."
Looking at the big sweet potato, Jiang Xiyue was about to take it, but her hand stopped halfway. Although she would definitely pay for it...
But isn’t this title too much?
If you are short, you are an elementary school student? Which elementary school student can have a 36C? It's too much...
It seems that I can’t tell, the down jacket is too thick, damn winter!
The girl's expression was conflicted. Not only did the boiled corn smell good, but the roasted sweet potatoes also smelled good...but because she was called an elementary school student, she didn't want to buy any.
Linzhou, who was about to pay, suddenly felt bad.
"Xixi, just take it. I'll pay uncle. Didn't your brother teach you since you were a child that you can't take other people's things for free?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiyue glared at Linzhou without hesitation, then reached out to take the roasted sweet potato, took off her gloves and held it in her hands, and her hands felt warm instantly.
However, the issue of age still needs some explanation.
"Thank you, uncle. We will pay for it. It's not easy for you in such a cold weather. Also... I'm already a senior in high school. I'm not an elementary school student. I'm just short."
At this moment, the uncle who was buying things was stunned, and then he quickly apologized with a smile.
"Ah... I'm sorry. Uncle will give you another candied haws. Do you like walnut filling?"
"I can't eat anymore. I have to practice singing later. If I eat too much, it will affect my voice. But I'm still Uncle Crab."
Although Jiang Xiyue had said so, the candied haws was still stuffed into his hands.
Linzhou took out his wallet, took out a fifty-dollar bill and handed it to the uncle, but a car stopped behind the two of them, and then a voice came, "Dad, why are you selling this stuff again? Now our family has money, so you don't have to work hard."
Seeing his son, this uncle, who looked weather-beaten, smiled even happier than before, and switched to his hometown dialect.
"I'll wait for Yaoyao to finish her cram school lessons. You can go back first. The kids in this elementary school like my style. I've been selling here for more than 30 years. It's really hard to stay at home."
…
Hearing this, Linzhou agreed. His grandfather was the same. Even though he didn't need to make money, he still took the vegetables he grew to the morning market to sell.
I'm very happy if I can make a few dozen dollars a day.
Although at that time, his grandfather would secretly give him ten yuan every day so that he could buy breakfast.
I was really happy at that time.
Thinking of this, Linzhou turned around and explained seriously to the big brother sitting in the car.
"Brother, if the old man is happy, just let him be. People who have been busy all their lives suddenly have nothing to do. Not only can they not bear it physically, but they will also feel uncomfortable mentally."
"I know. I asked him to sell it, but it snowed so heavily today. I told him in the morning that he would take the kids out for a good meal in the evening, but he didn't listen." The young man sitting in the car showed a helpless expression.
"Okay... wait for me to close the stall, it will be quick." The old man's voice came from behind, and Linzhou didn't know what to say.
Since the elder brother knows, then it’s good that he knows.
Then Linzhou went over to lend a hand, pushed the car into the yard next to it, turned off the stove, and then walked out and got in the car.
As soon as the car door closed, Linzhou realized that he hadn't paid yet and waved his hand quickly.
"Uncle... I haven't paid yet..."
"This is a send-off for you two!" The uncle's voice came .
Looking at the car driving away, Linzhou didn't know what to say and could only silently put the money back into his wallet.
Jiang Xiyue, who was standing next to Linzhou, held a sweet potato in one hand and a candied haws in the other, as if she had discovered a new world.
"Brother, do you want to eat?"
The girl tilted her head back, her eyes full of smiles, and handed the half-bitten candied haws to Linzhou's mouth.
In fact, if Jiang Xiyue didn't call him that, he would have eaten it...
The old sister at home is already a headache, and now there is another fake sister. Who can bear it? She will be split into five parts.
But... Jiang Xiyue seemed to be possessed, holding onto Linzhou's little arm and continuing to act up.
"Guo Guo, you despise my family, so...would you like me to give you a kiss...a hug as a reward?"
"If you talk like that again, I'll slap you." Linzhou now felt goose bumps all over his body. Jiang Xiyue must have done it on purpose.
But when the girl heard Linzhou say this, she loosened her arm, walked in front of Linzhou and stopped, looking the boy in front of her from top to bottom.
Then, the girl gave a strange smile and put her face in front of Linzhou.
"The pot hit me!"
