Chapter Thirty: Looking at the Pictures

After returning home and having a hasty meal, Xiao Yu accompanied Xiao Qiang to sell apples in the town. Of course, Xiao Erpao was also accompanying him. He was an expert driver. He usually went to town to sell apples, and everyone in the village came to him, so

He has been able to make a lot of money just by harvesting apples in the past two months.

"Xiao Yu, there is a lively market in town today. There are a lot of delicious food. How about I take you to eat later?" Xiao Ergou said with evil intentions.

"Really? That's great. I want to eat candied haws and sesame candy," Xiao Yu also said happily.

"Okay, uncle will take you to eat. Oh, by the way, I heard that people in the village say that you can not only catch ghosts, but also tell fortunes. Show it to uncle and see when he can find you an aunt.

return?"

When Xiao Qiang on the side heard this, he couldn't help but turned around and glared at Xiao Erpao and said, "You are already an adult, and you are still playing with a child. Do you believe what he said? When it comes to fortune telling, you have visited many Taoist temples, right?

I didn’t see you bring one back, now ask him, a young child, what does he know?”

"Hey, Brother Qiang, you're wrong. I didn't bring him back. That's because I didn't like him. Don't look down on me! If I had achieved Zhengguo that day, I would have given birth to several babies. Do you believe it or not?

"

"Wow, wow, wow, do you think it's raining heavily to give birth, and you can just take a basin and put a few in?" Xiao Qiang said disdainfully.

But what Xiao Qiang said was wrong, because although Xiao Erpao was good at eating and lazy, he had the appearance of being wealthy, and indeed he had the appearance of a family full of children and grandchildren. However, in rural areas, if you don't get married after thirty, people would say you are a bachelor, and in

In the city, there are probably a large number of people over forty who are not married.

"No, I won't talk to you, an old antique." Xiao Erpao puffed out his cigarette and glanced at Xiao Qiang dissatisfied. Then he pulled Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, don't listen to your dad. He is just an old antique. He doesn't know anything.

You only want to save money to build a house and marry you a wife. Why do you want to marry a wife? It’s so troublesome to hold one in your arms when you go out, followed by another one! Like your uncle, you are light when you go out, one person is full, and the whole family is not hungry.

, how comfortable, right?”

Seeing Xiao Erpao's words flying around, Xiao Yu immediately moved to the side, but was caught back by the other party. "Xiao Yu, tell me quickly, what does your uncle look like? Is he rich?"

"Yes, you do have the appearance of a wealthy man, and you won't feel at ease anymore," Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"What do you mean, you should follow your father's example and hit me, right?" Xiao Erpao glared, then looked at Xiao Qiang, who was squinting, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"No, second uncle, I mean you will marry second aunt soon," Xiao Yu hurriedly explained when he saw the misunderstanding.

After hearing Xiao Yu's words, not only Xiao Erpao, but also Xiao Qiang also turned over and sat up. They both burst into laughter and said, "Second Aunt, what are you talking about? I was just lying to you. Do you think

Do I really want to find a second aunt for you? If the second uncle can’t support himself, how can he have money to support his second aunt?”

"Xiao Yu, you second artillery uncle has no integrity, don't listen to him," Xiao Qiang added on the side.

Seeing the two of them laughing, Xiao Yu still raised his head and said, "Forget it if you don't believe me. The ancestral lines on your forehead have disappeared and the descendant line is prominent. You should have a child by now."

"Haha...Children? How can we have children without getting married?" Xiao Erpao burst out laughing, but suddenly stopped, and then he looked at Xiao Yu with a surprised look on his face and said, "Xiao Yu, are you serious?

"

"Yes." Xiao Yu nodded seriously.

Xiao Erpao was a little panicked this time and seemed a little at a loss. Then he giggled and then held his head again, as if he was extremely uncomfortable.

"Second Artillery, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?" Xiao Qiang greeted him quickly.

Erpao shook his head and said nothing. His eyes looked a little strange, but then he returned to normal.

"It's okay. I suddenly thought of something. Well, I won't go back tonight. Something suddenly happened." Xiao Erpao said vaguely, and then looked at Xiao Yu again.

Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Erpao curiously and saw that the other party was a little strange. He immediately stopped paying attention and fell asleep leaning against the apple basket. When he woke up, he was awakened by the noisy sounds around him.

Xiao Qiang and Xiao Erpao were moving apples, and next to the donkey cart, there was a huge square with apples piled like hills. Many old people were sitting in the apple piles, bagging and boxing the apples, and then

In their prime, they are loaded into trucks and shipped to all parts of the country.

There were not many more than a dozen baskets of apples. Xiao Qiang and Erpao finished moving them in a short time. The boss who collected the apples looked familiar to Xiao Qiang, so he didn’t check more and paid cash for more than a dozen baskets of apples.

A total of more than 300 yuan was sold, and this year’s apple sales can be considered over.

"Xiao Yu, let's go. Uncle Erpao will take you for a walk." After finishing his work, Xiao Erpao pulled Xiao Yu and said with an attentive look on his face.

Xiao Qiang stayed and chatted with the boss who collected the apples. Xiao Yu and Xiao Erpao wandered on the street. Of course, Xiao Yu got to eat the candied haws and some sesame candy as he wished.

"Well, Xiao Yu, can you remove my descendant line?" After walking around, Xiao Erpao pointed at his forehead and asked suddenly.

"No, those are all brought by your fate, how can you get rid of them?" Xiao Yu shook his head while eating sesame candy.

Seeing the affirmation on Xiao Yu's face, Xiao Erpao couldn't help but murmured a few words, and then pulled Xiao Yu to look left and right on the street. After a while, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and the people going to the market were also slow.

Slowly it became less crowded and the whole street began to become empty.

At this moment, five or six people gathered in front of them, as if they were looking at something. Xiao Erpao also got angry, pulled Xiao Yu and ran up. Only then did Xiao Yu see that it was a farmer.

A well-dressed man is selling a strange medicinal material.

It was a medicinal material like Polygonum multiflorum. The medicinal material was covered with soil, as if it had just been dug out of the mud! Moreover, this thing also had two arms and two legs, and it looked like a shaped

Ginseng, but this thing looks like ginseng, but has the vines of Polygonum multiflorum.

Xiao Yu saw this kind of thing for the first time and felt very curious. He stuck his head out from the gap in the crowd and looked up and down at this strange thing.

"Brother, how do you sell this thing?" A man in a shirt looked at the medicinal materials for a while and asked casually.

"Five hundred yuan, I dug it out of the ground in the morning. I heard the old man said it was thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum. I, a farmer, don't understand it, so I came to see if anyone wants it."

The uncle wore a straw hat, his clothes were stained with mud, and his face had deep wrinkles. He really looked like an out-and-out farmer.

"Brother, with your accent, you are obviously from the South. Why did you come to our remote place?" a man asked suspiciously.

"Hey, brother Buman, I came here to contract a piece of land to plant apples! As you know, there is great pressure in the south now, and many people are running to the north."

As soon as the other party explained this, the people around him understood. Some people immediately wanted to touch the human-shaped Polygonum multiflorum, but were stopped by the seller. "You can only look at it, but you can't touch it. I heard that this thing is afraid of strangers. I was afraid of him for a while."

Ran away".
