Chapter 641 Fruit Girl
"Next time you take photos, remember to hold it more firmly."
After Jiang Ning said this, he pushed the mountain bike and left.
Xue Yuantong followed him step by step. Compared with the submissive behavior in front of them just now, Yan Chuchen suddenly discovered that the little girl's whole aura had changed. Why was her pace so arrogant?
‘Let’s hold the photo steady? Who are you? ’ The long-haired girl next to me was angry. She wanted to say a few words and return it to them the way they came.
Yan Chuchen suddenly said leisurely: "Are we still taking pictures?"
They spent 26 yuan to buy two cups of milk tea. They wanted to drink it after taking pictures, but the sisters' hands shook and both cups fell to the ground.
Yan Chuchen, who has always been confident and calm, couldn't help feeling a little regretful. If he had only taken a cup to take a photo, wouldn't he have been so unlucky?
The long-haired girl asked: "Sister, they say you are very capable. See if there is any way to save her."
Yan Chuchen's eyes moved and he looked at the ground. Milk tea was scattered all over the ground, making it a mess. The aroma of tea and milk wafted up, seeming to indicate the tragedy just now.
Yan Chuchen looked at the milk tea mixed with the dust, her heart filled with regret and helplessness. Her upright and generous appearance showed that she was helpless.
Yan Chuchen is a senior in high school this year. Since her freshman year, she has been selected as the host of every large-scale event in the Fourth Middle School. Dressed in heavy makeup and costumes, she is the center of attention of the entire school and is surrounded by countless applause.
But... Yan Chuchen turned to her and said, "What can I do? I'm helpless, okay?"
The long-haired girl had a stern expression, "Don't I believe you? My sister's style at the party was absolutely stunning. According to me, because of your excellent skills, you should be the supporter for the Evergreen Liquid Press Conference."
Yan Chuchen stopped talking.
The atmosphere stagnated for a few seconds, and the long-haired girl asked tentatively: "Sister, are you silent?"
Yan Chuchen: "I am speechless because of you."
"but…"
"But what?" The long-haired girl raised hopes. Milk tea is really expensive, 13 yuan for a cup!
Yan Chuchen cleared his throat and his voice became more ups and downs: "I can cry for you in bel canto."
…
Nanhong Road.
The sunshine at noon is warm and falls gently on the earth, adding a touch of warmth to the early winter.
Lin Zida and Zhuang Jianhui strolled along the road, like street strollers with nothing to do.
Next to them was a girl wearing a white peaked cap. Although most of her face was obscured by the brim of the hat, the half of her face and chin that were exposed were extremely stunning, with extremely graceful arcs, and her skin was white and delicate under the sunlight.
"Shu Yan, you haven't been to school for a while recently, can you still keep up with the classes?" Zhuang Jianhui said with a smile.
During the recent period, Zhuang Jianhui knew that Ding Shuyan had been following Lin Han, broadening his horizons, learning her business skills, and even directly cooperating with Changqingye.
Lin Zida: "Don't worry about it. The old witch hired a one-to-one teacher for her."
Zhuang Jianhui heard this and said happily: "If your aunt hears this, I'm afraid you will lose two pounds of fat."
He knew Lin Han's cruelty only too well.
Lin Zida, who is optimistic by nature, couldn't help but feel frightened when he heard that woman's name.
Ding Shuyan spoke, and her voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, touching people's hearts: "There is probably no problem in maintaining the top four rankings."
Just listening to her voice is a kind of enjoyment. Zhuang Jianhui said: "I think if you concentrate on studying, you might make some progress."
Their origins are different from ordinary people. In Zhuang Jianhui's view, that is due to genetic advantages and disadvantages.
Just like him, not only does he have a good family background, outstanding appearance, and excellent IQ, but his physical fitness is far superior to that of his peers. Many boys have practiced slam dunks that they cannot achieve in their lives, but he can easily do it in a few days.
Lin Zida denied it: "Jianhui, it's not that simple. Du Chuan is not easy to surpass. That guy is a college entrance examination mercenary hired by Principal Yu with a lot of money."
This is indeed the case. When she was a freshman in high school, Ding Shuyan prided herself on her outstanding intelligence and believed that she could become the first in the fourth middle school with just a little effort.
By that time, she thought she could even take the initiative to control her scores, become third in the school, and sit behind Jiang Ning in the next exam.
During that time, she asked her aunt Lin Han to find the best teaching assistant in Ancheng for one-on-one tutoring.
The English subject has a famous teacher from the International Department of 168 Middle School, the mathematics subject has a coach from the math competition, and the physics subject has an expert from a certain youth class's science and technology innovation and strong foundation plan.
Ding Shuyan thought that everything was ready, and she was full of confidence for that exam.
result…
It’s so funny, let alone first place, she can’t even compare to [College Entrance Examination Mercenary] Du Chuan.
Sometimes if you don’t work hard, you won’t realize how big the gap is between you and others.
Thinking of this past incident, Ding Shuyan tilted her head slightly, revealing the graceful curve of her chin, and her eyes hidden in the shadow of the brim of her hat stared into the distance through the gap.
The crape myrtle trees on the roadside are no longer as dense as in summer, but the shape of their branches is uniquely beautiful.
From time to time a car passes by, bringing with it a breeze.
Thinking of the upcoming press conference of Evergreen Liquid, Ding Shuyan felt that she seemed to be able to personally clear away the fog lingering in her heart.
…
The intersection of Nanhong Road and Heba forms a crossroads. There are often fruit stalls here, sometimes blanket sellers, and occasionally fish sellers in the morning.
Xue Chuchu was riding a black electric scooter. Her mother did not come back at noon. She had lunch in the school cafeteria today and has only returned now.
When she was about to pass by this place, she would have passed by without stopping.
But for some reason, she remembered last night. She wanted to buy star fruit to repay Jiang Ning and the others. Who would have thought that the taste of that fruit was so unique.
Even if she is as frugal as she is, it is a bit hard to swallow.
She simply had no face to face Jiang Ning and the others.
Xue Chuchu saw the fruit stall on the roadside, water flowed in her eyes, and finally she made a decision: 'Buy fruit again. ’
She released the switch, and the battery car slowly slowed down and finally stopped in front of the stall.
The transportation vehicle of this fruit stall is a three-wheeled vehicle with a bucket, so there are several types of fruits.
After Xue Chuchu observed it, she pointed at the piles of oranges and asked: "Boss, are these oranges not sour?"
The owner of the fruit stall is a middle-aged uncle with a somewhat weathered appearance. He is wearing gray work clothes and has a friendly smile.
When he heard this, he directly picked an orange and handed it over confidently: "You can taste it yourself whether it is sour or not."
After Xue Chuchu peeled it off, she pinched a piece, put it in her mouth, and bit it twice.
Well, it's really not sour.
The middle-aged uncle's expression was still smiling, and he was obviously very satisfied with the fruit he bought.
Xue Chuchu didn't say anything. She handed it to the uncle and told him to try it.
The uncle's hands were rough and strong, so he peeled off a piece and ate it. After taking two bites, he felt a little embarrassed.
It's not sour, but it's not sweet either, and it has no taste at all.
He pointed to the oranges next to him, "How about you buy some oranges? They must be sweet."
Xue Chuchu wanted to leave, but she felt that the quality of the fruits at this fruit stall seemed a bit poor.
But the middle-aged uncle is very enthusiastic, simple and honest, like the honest uncle in the village before.
At this moment, Zhuang Jianhui and the others, who were walking along Nanhong Road, wandered here.
After Lin Zida saw Xue Chuchu, he looked around and did not find Jiang Ning. Instead, Ding Shuyan stared at the girl in front of the fruit stall, his eyes slightly brighter under the brim of his hat.
"Buy some fruit." Zhuang Jianhui said.
Lin Zida said happily: "I brought Shu Yan with me today, I must buy it!"
His cousin has a special ability. She is very good at buying fruits and can always choose the most delicious fruits. This ability seems to be innate.
Hearing this, Ding Shuyan did not refuse. She stepped on her white sneakers and walked to the fruit stall.
The middle-aged uncle greeted enthusiastically: "It's cheap and delicious!"
Ding Shuyan glanced directly at the oranges, and her eyes hidden under the brim of her hat glanced at the other fruits. At this moment, the appearance, color, and smell of the fruits were all clear to her.
Ding Shuyan's slender fingers deftly brushed over the surface of the fruit, and finally stopped on a bunch of green stems. She said:
"These are fine."
After Lin Zida heard this, he picked up a green stem and just rubbed it without washing it. He put it in his mouth and smacked his lips:
"Sweet and sweet!"
The middle-aged uncle smiled happily: "Our fruits will never fool anyone!"
Zhuang Jianhui said: "Boss, please take care of it."
Middle-aged uncle: "Okay!"
He moved his hands quickly and said to the other little girl: "We have other oranges here, take a look."
Xue Chuchu looked at the other pile. These oranges looked different from ordinary oranges. They looked like ugly lanterns and were not as smooth as ordinary oranges.
Ding Shuyan touched these oranges with her fingers, and two seconds later, her clear voice sounded: "These oranges are fine."
She just reminded her, but didn't buy any more.
After paying the bill, Zhuang Jianhui took one more look at Xue Chuchu, then followed Lin Zida and the others and gradually walked away.
Xue Chuchu peeled the ugly orange and saw that the flesh was full. She tasted a piece.
As the girl in the peaked hat just said, no matter the texture or taste, it is really good. It tastes much better than ordinary oranges, and there is no need to spit out the seeds.
She thought of the girl in the peaked cap again, who seemed to have mastered an extremely powerful method of picking fruits.
Xue Chuchu stretched out her hand and tried to touch the apples piled next to her.
She was stunned for a moment and found nothing.
In the end, Xue Chuchu bought a few ugly oranges, chose a pineapple, and settled the bill.
Just as she was about to speak, Cui Ming came from the distance: "Chu Chu, you are buying fruit again!"
Xue Yuantong's little head poked out from behind Jiang Ning, it was so cute.
The intersection of Nanhong Road and Heba is the only way home, but because they are usually out of sync, Tongtong and Chuchu can hardly touch each other.
Xue Chuchu has already paid, so there is no need to worry about being rushed to pay by them.
Xue Chuchu looked at the middle-aged uncle, "Boss, can you help me peel the pineapple?"
In fact, you can peel it at home, but fruits like pineapple are more difficult to peel.
I remember when I was a child, Aunt Gu bought a pineapple on the street. She didn't know how to handle it. Tongtong volunteered to help peel it. After peeling, only half of the pineapple was left. Aunt Gu told the villagers that Tongtong was a fool...
Wait... Xue Chuchu thought for a moment and came up with an idea:
‘Is the reason why the loss was so great because it was eaten secretly by Tongtong? ’
The truth flashed in his mind, and Xue Chuchu couldn't care so much anymore.
"Okay!" The middle-aged uncle smiled friendly. He held the fruit stand with both hands, stood up with difficulty, and jumped to the side to get the knife.
Only then did Xue Chuchu realize that the uncle's trouser leg below the knee of his left leg was empty. He was...disabled.
Xue Chuchu suddenly regretted that she didn't have to let this cheerful uncle cut it.
The uncle skillfully picked up the paring knife and peeled the pineapple very cleanly in one operation: "If you are afraid of being stung, go home and soak it in salt water!"
Xue Chuchu took the packed fruit and said apologetically: "Sorry, boss, I shouldn't have bothered you just now."
The middle-aged uncle smiled heartily: "No trouble, no trouble!"
As he said that, he held his trouser legs and sat back on the chair.
Xue Chuchu put the fruit on the battery car and rode home with Jiang Ning and others. Just a few meters away, the uncle's hearty laughter sounded behind him:
"Two more orders have been sold. Today's business is better than yesterday!"
The voice was full of love and sincerity for life.
After returning to the bungalow on the river dam, Xue Chuchu got salt water, put the pineapple in the water, and then carried the ugly orange to the door under the sun.
Jiang Ning and Tongtong were basking in the sun here. Today they didn't move the lounge chair, but got a table.
Especially Xue Chuchu's discovery of details, she just walked out of the house and met Tongtong's eyes.
It fully shows that Tongtong has been looking forward to this scene for a long time.
Xue Chuchu thought to herself: 'If I didn't buy fruit, I'm afraid there would be two chairs and a table at the door now, right? ’
Putting the ugly orange on the small table, Xue Yuantong said it was delicious.
If things had gone as normal, Xue Chuchu could have washed away the shame of last night, but she was a little absent-minded when she saw Tongtong's smile and Jiang Ning's satisfied expression.
Tongtong waved her little hand in front of her, wondering: "Chuchu, what's wrong with you?"
Xue Chuchu suddenly looked at Tongtong, and their eyes met. Her eyes were full of seriousness:
"Tongtong, if I didn't apologize to the uncle just now, but said thank you to him, would it be better?"
Xue Yuantong tilted his head, thought for a while and said: "Yes, next time Jiang Ning and I buy fruit again, I will say a few more thank yous for you."
Xue Chuchu thought of the fruit stand owner, facing Tongtong's constant thank you, that kind of stunned expression, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, making her cold face sweet.
Xue Yuantong took advantage of her distraction and secretly scraped the cream on the top of her milk tea with a straw.
