In the evening, after the sun set and the temperature dropped slightly, Li Manjun took her two siblings to a department store and had a meal at KFC.
No one in Heather Town knew about this kind of Western fast food. Li Manjun thought that the two siblings would like this kind of food just like the teenagers of later generations.
Unexpectedly, the car overturned.
Li Lijun felt that the burger was very unpalatable, especially the salad dressing and lettuce sandwiched together. Her brows instantly furrowed, showing the confusion of a subway old man looking at his cell phone.
In the end, I only picked out the chicken pieces and bread pancakes and finished eating them, putting the lettuce aside. After a long period of mental preparation, I still didn't want to waste food, so I endured the discomfort and finished eating.
Li Jianjun felt better and thought it was quite special. He asked out of curiosity: "Sister, do foreigners usually eat this?"
Li Manjun nodded, "Absolutely."
"Don't they cook? I feel so tired after eating this!" Li Lijun held up a Coke, "But the Coke tastes good, better than soda."
There is a strong saccharin flavor in the soda, and it tastes sweet after one sip.
Of course, this feeling is also due to drinking too much.
The eldest sister loved them so much that she bought two baskets and asked people to bring them from the city to their homes. She and Jianjun could drink a bottle every day, which made the classmates in the class envious.
Unfortunately, the uncle brought his cousin to their house once and took away half the box.
Seeing her cousin's face as if he was reincarnated from a starving situation, licking the soda bottle in one gulp before letting go, Li Lijun couldn't help but yell at him: "My sister bought this for me and Jianjun!"
However, the spoiled cousin didn't care about this at all. He made a face at her, ran directly to Li Dawei and shouted confidently: "Second uncle, I still want to drink soda."
Li Dawei was a soft-hearted person, but under Li Lijun's glare, he just picked up ten bottles in his net bag and asked Li Dalong to take them back to his hometown.
Fortunately, the two siblings had hidden the other basket under the bed before, so that their cousin didn't see it, otherwise the whole basket would have been sent back.
What Li Dawei was thinking about was that the two elderly people in his family had never tasted anything good in their lives. His original intention was to let Li Dalong take it back and share it with his family members. On a hot day, he had to go to the fields to see the water. It would be nice to have a soft drink that tastes sweet.
.
It's just that the two elders doted on their grandson and only tasted a small bite, and the rest was given to the grandson.
Li Daniu's daughter didn't even touch the bottle, which made Ren Yan so angry that she had another quarrel at home.
It ended with Li Daniu using the money from selling goods to buy soda for his daughter.
"I don't dare to buy more. My cousin only bought two bottles, one for my daughter and one for my sister-in-law. Otherwise, who knows who will steal it." Li Lijun drank Coke and angrily complained to her eldest sister.
Li Jianjun's flesh ached terribly when he thought of the half-box soda, "The eldest sister bought it for me and the second sister, not for them. Dad knows how to be a good person."
Li Manjun asked: "My parents didn't quarrel, did they?"
Li Jianjun shook his head, "Second sister didn't let me tell you. Mom doesn't know yet."
As a result, my mother went to count the basket, thinking that the two siblings drank it all by themselves, and was scolded.
"I was unjustly accused. Mom doubted me even though I didn't do anything." Li Lijun felt wronged and glared at Li Jianjun.
Li Jianjun said angrily: "Why are you glaring at me? Didn't I also take the blame? Mom also doubted me."
There is a difference between suspicion and disbelief. Li Jianjun admitted that he drank secretly, while Wang Xiaojuan just said lightly that drinking too much is not good.
If it were Li Lijun, why don't you, the elder sister, know how to look after your younger brother? It's all her fault anyway.
Fortunately, Li Jianjun was quite loyal, so he didn't blame his second sister. He begged her and the matter was over.
Afterwards, Li Dawei naturally had to buy a pound of pork belly and pay hush money to the two siblings to ensure family harmony.
Li Manjun felt angry and amused. He waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you to the night market here after we finish eating."
Li Manjun didn't want her sister and brother to be trapped in this kind of fuss all the time. She would just refill the ten bottles of soda for them later.
It's not worth being angry all the time for a few great relatives. You know who they are, so just stay away from them.
I just pity her parents, I'm afraid they won't be able to get rid of these relatives in their hometown for the rest of their lives.
After all, the broken bones are still connected with the tendons. Both husband and wife are kind-hearted people and cannot be hard-hearted. She understands this too well.
As soon as they arrived at the night market street, the two siblings put aside all their unhappiness. There were many small stalls on the street selling gadgets and snacks. The two siblings, who had not eaten enough at KFC, had another meal.
In view of the taste problem, Li Manjun took the two of them to have a buffet hot pot the next day, which received unanimous praise.
Li Lijun has a small appetite and suffers a loss.
Li Jianjun, a young man, could starve me to death with his food, and he got back what his second sister had lost.
The three siblings are very happy. They still like domestic tastes and no longer have any noble expectations for foreign KFC Western food.
"That's it." Li Jianjun said while eating roadside skewers.
Li Lijun looked at the young people riding bicycles and playing by the river. Across the river was the No. 4 Middle School campus. She felt everything in the city, the developed transportation, the noisy crowds, the busy office workers, and the leisurely students, and her mood changed greatly.
changes.
She used to think that the world in front of her was already very big, but now she realized that the small world at home could not be found on a map.
"No wonder everyone wants to come to the city. It turns out the city is so nice." Li Lijun sighed.
Li Manjun reminded Li Jianjun to throw the garbage into the trash can and not to litter. He turned around and saw Li Lijun with a look of emotion on his face, and said with a chuckle:
"That's why I want you to study hard. Studying is the easiest way for ordinary children like us to see the world. If you don't take this path well, it will be very difficult in the future."
Li Lijun hummed loudly, and Li Manjun knew that she had listened.
He turned around to look at Li Jianjun. This kid had some sort of social angst. He saw a teenager playing with a bicycle on the side of the road, so he walked over and started chatting with them.
"Which school are you in?" he was asked.
He said without hesitation: "My home is in the town, Heather Town. Did you know? I go to the school in the town."
Several teenagers were riding mountain bikes, which were rarely seen in the city and were not found in the town at all. Li Jianjun couldn't help being attracted when he saw them and asked if they could let him try them out.
A few people thought he was quite interesting and taught him how to ride.
Li Jianjun rode unsteadily for two laps, and even tried to rush down the slope of the flower bed once, before he returned the bike to the teenagers with unsatisfied feelings.
"Where do you and your brother-in-law live? How about we play together later?" Several people reluctantly asked for the address, wanting to see him next time.
Li Jianjun waved his hands, imitating the heroes in martial arts dramas and said, "See you soon!"
