Chapter 19 I will buy two

 Dad Le held the tomato in his hand and put it to his mouth. He heard a slightly urgent sound behind him, turned his head subconsciously, and saw three or four people standing on the side of the waiting room door, looking at him. He looked reflexively.

To the tomatoes in hand.

Le Yun's hearing was super sensitive. She had already known that someone was coming and knew who it was from the conversation. At this moment, she pretended to turn around and blinked: "Tang County... Chief?"

The little girl's tone seemed to be a little surprised and confused, which attracted the attention of County Magistrate Tang and his entourage. Everyone looked at this girl, whose bright eyes and teeth were so beautiful.

"County... County Magistrate?" Dad Le stood up in shock, forgot about his crutches, lost his balance, and leaned to one side.

Le Yun, who reacted quickly, jumped up and helped her father to prevent him from falling.

People in the waiting room in twos and threes also looked at the door. Whether they had seen the county magistrate on TV or had never watched the news, they all stood up subconsciously.

"Fellows, sit down, you're welcome. I'm waiting for the bus too." Mr. Tangxian is a bit short, with an altitude of less than 1.7 meters. He has a simple and honest face, is slightly fat, and has a very approachable smile.

The men and women sat down again. The country folk had never seen a big shot. Meeting the county magistrate was similar to the ancient villagers meeting the magistrate. They felt uneasy and did not dare to speak loudly. They were very restrained.

County Magistrate Tang greeted everyone, walked to the Le family and his daughter with a smile, and held Le's father's hand: "Fellow, sit down, I was too rash, and you were shocked."

Dad Le smiled naively, sat down, and handed over the tomatoes he was holding: "County magistrate, quench your thirst."

As soon as he raised his hand, he blushed in embarrassment. His hand was very rough.

"Thank you, fellow man." County Magistrate Tang took the tomato from the man's hand, rubbed it in his hands, put it to his mouth and took a bite. The bite was overflowing with sweetness and mouth-watering.

"It's delicious! It's crispy, sweet and fragrant. It's so delicious. When I first smelled it, it felt like the taste I remembered when I was a child. It tasted even more delicious than what I remembered. My fellow countrymen, this is what you grew at home.

"?" County Magistrate Tang took a few bites, ate half of it, and was full of praise.

Several of the entourage swallowed quietly.

Lele’s father rubbed his head innocently: “This was bought by my family, Lele.”

He looked at his daughter again and saw that his girl was holding a backpack with a guarded look on her face. He was choked by the words he had not yet spoken. He almost wanted to say, "I still have some here, you can try it again."

"This little classmate is your daughter, right? How old is she? How old are you in school?" County Magistrate Tang looked at the immature female student, who looked like a primary school student.

"I am fourteen years old today and am a senior in high school." Le Yun hugged her backpack and heard the sound of people swallowing saliva. She felt that she might not be able to keep the red wine she gave to her father.

"He's in his senior year of high school. What a good boy... Ah, fourteen years old, senior year of high school?" County Magistrate Tang replied smoothly, and suddenly came back to his senses. He looked at the pretty girl in surprise, who was in the third year of high school at such a young age.

That's right?

"My daughter used to skip a grade... She is about to take the college entrance examination. Today is her birthday, so I came to have a meal with her. This child was so stubborn that she insisted on sending me to the car before going back to school to review, as if she was afraid that I would get lost.

It’s like, how can someone as big as me lose myself?”

Le's father was very embarrassed. He was afraid that the county magistrate would think that the child did not like to study and would have a bad impression of his daughter, so he quickly explained why he was not in school.

People in the waiting room looked at each other. Did they hear it correctly? She was a senior in high school at the age of fourteen, and she was about to take the college entrance examination. How many grades had she skipped before? The school also skipped a grade?

Thinking about their children or the children of relatives who are fourteen years old and still in the first or second grade of junior high school, and then look at that pretty girl, they all immediately feel envious. The children who skipped a grade must have very good grades.<

/p>

County Magistrate Tang felt that he was a little incompetent. Of course, he did not show it. He sincerely expressed his congratulations and said that the education was great. He noticed that everyone was looking at the red pomegranate in his hand from time to time, and he quickly wiped it out.

The second one ate it all and didn’t even wipe his mouth vividly.

"Wow..." The county magistrate had just gnawed away the remaining tomatoes. A child of about four or five years old who had been staring at him burst into tears, crying and fussing, shouting "I want it, I want it."

Want".

More than a dozen people in the waiting room were stunned.

The parents, who were in their thirties, were coaxing and persuading the child, but they couldn't handle the child who kept making troubles. The young father had no choice but to hesitate for a moment, then mustered up the courage to walk up to the Le family father and daughter, feeling a little embarrassed.

Say: "Little sister, do you have any tomatoes left? Can you share one with me?"

Everyone looked at the Le family's father and daughter, Le's father looked at his child, and Le Yun held her backpack in her arms, looking like she was protecting a calf, and said nothing.

"Lele? Let's share one with him?" Lele's father felt embarrassed when others saw him, so he hesitated to discuss it with his little cotton-padded jacket.

"No, you don't want to give away good food that costs ten yuan a pound." Le Yun firmly refused. She was joking, why should she give away the things she worked so hard for to others? When she was a child, she was greedy for things that others had.

,Has anyone given it to her?

"Ten yuan a pound?" Everyone was surprised again. Tomatoes cost ten yuan a pound. Is this wrong?

The young man stood there, neither good enough to leave nor good to stay. It was extremely embarrassing.

"Little classmate, where did you buy it? Why is it so expensive?" County Magistrate Tang quickly came out to change the topic.

"Is it expensive for ten yuan per catty? County magistrate, if you can buy the same thing, I will help you sell it for ten yuan per catty." Le Yun hugged the backpack and protected it well, determined not to give the bag to her father.

, once the package is in his hands, every tomato will definitely be carved up.

"Well, I really can't find such a pure taste. Even the purest taste in my hometown, Glong Province, is not as good as this." County Magistrate Tang was turned against him, and he happily admitted that he couldn't do it.
"That's it, you get what you pay for. This price is not randomly shouted by the tomato seller. It is the price voluntarily given by the buyer. I heard that it is a big boss who runs a company in the city. He came here by accident.

I met an old man growing tomatoes in Fang County. I ate one and wrapped the old man's tomatoes. I bought as many as I could. Moreover, the big boss always drove to the county to get them by himself. Just think about it and you will know how rare this thing is.



Le Yun has never lied many times since she was a child, and this time she lied to the end. Anyway, she was telling nonsense all by herself, and her words were so ridiculous that no one else knew about it.

Everyone is so embarrassed that they even drive from the city to get tomatoes to eat tomatoes. They are really rich people and willful.

The child was still crying and the young man couldn't make any progress. He thought for a moment and took out ten dollars from his pocket: "Little sister, I'll buy two from you."
