Chapter 36： Can't divide pears

Chapter 36 Can’t divide pears

The weather was a bit cloudy today, and Ning Xi woke up to the sound of pots and pans again.

As soon as you open your eyes, you see a face magnified N times.

She hung on him again like a koala.

Just as he was about to let go of him, he turned to his side and hugged her, raised his hand to help her tuck the broken hair on her face behind her ears, lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead, "I slept late last night, now. Are you still sleepy? I want you to sleep a little longer, and I’ll call my second brother and sister-in-law to set up a stall together.”

I did go to bed very late last night.

Thinking of last night, a blush appeared on the face of an 'old girl' who had been born twice, and her eyes wandered around uncomfortably, not daring to stay on him for a moment.

She pulled on his clothes and said in a very soft voice, "Brother Nan, let go of me first. I'm already awake and can't fall asleep even if I stay in bed."

"Okay." Lu Nan let go of her, sat up and started to get dressed.

By the time the two of them left the room, Lu Zhenghai had already made breakfast. He didn't know if Lu Nan had told him to, but he also boiled three eggs.

“Why did Dad just boil three eggs? You can eat them too.” Ning Xi put the eggs in her hand in front of Lu Zhenghai.

“You three just need to eat. Eat quickly, your second sister-in-law and the others will be here soon.” Lu Zhenghai pushed the eggs in front of Ning Xi again.

Lu Nan had already peeled the eggs. He broke them open and put the egg yolks into Ning Xi's bowl and the egg whites into his own bowl. His daughter said she likes to eat egg yolks.

Lu Nan picked up the eggs in front of Ning Xi and put them in front of Lu Zhenghai. "Dad, cook four eggs every day from now on. Your daughter-in-law is very filial. If you don't eat them, she won't eat them alone."

Ning Xi also hurriedly said, "Dad, you can eat it! Brother Nan and I can share it. When the eggs are almost finished, just tell me and I will buy more."

"Okay." Lu Zhenghai nodded happily. He was right. This child was very filial and sensible.

After dinner, when they were ready, Zhang Ying also came over. As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Ying asked, "Xiao Xi, are you going to pick apricots today? Aunt Yang came to ask me early in the morning."

"Pick it. Let the second brother take everyone to pick apricots later." After thinking about it, Ning Xi added, "From today on, the second brother will not go fishing. Second sister-in-law, tell her to ask her to invite the villagers to pick apricots." People help net fish, and they pay a pound of dried fish. If you are willing to come, you can come over at about 2:30 in the afternoon and learn how to bake dried fish. "

Zhang Ying thought for a moment and said out loud, “It’s faster to ask Aunt Yang for help than to go door to door looking for help.”

"become."

After arranging things at home, the two of them went out with their backpacks on their backs.

We went out a little later than usual today, and there were more spicy strips and dried fish than usual today. The two of them stopped and rested several times on the way, so they arrived a little later than usual today.

There are already people who have left the early morning shift waiting in line in front of their stall.

Still far away, Aunt Zhou was already waving to the two of them, "Ning Yatou, Yingzi, hurry up, you two, hurry up."

It has been several days since Ning Xi last reminded Aunt Zhou to go for a check-up. Aunt Zhou has not been here in the past few days. Everyone thought that she was angry because of Ning Xi's reminder and refused to come.

Ning Xi trotted over and said, "Sorry, sorry, I went out a little late today."

When the two of them approached, Aunt Zhou squeezed in from behind and said, "Girl, don't worry about setting up the stall. First, help me weigh ten catties of spicy dried fish and ten catties of spicy strips."

Ning Xi walked over and put the backpack on the ground, "Aunt Zhou, why did you buy so many?"

“I bought it for my son. He is going to the city, so he took some to give to his friends.” Aunt Wang explained with a smile.

“It’s done, I’ll weigh it for you right away. The second sister-in-law will weigh the spicy strips for Aunt Zhou first.” Ning Xi didn’t bother setting up the stall and weighed the dried fish for Aunt Zhou first.

"Okay! Aunt Zhou, wait a moment, I'll pack it for you right away." Zhang Ying immediately put down the basket and took out the oil paper to pack the spicy strips. While waiting for the two of them to pack, Aunt Zhou chatted with Ning Xi with a smile, "You are so capable, girl. I went to Dr. Chen to check my pulse two days ago, and I really have a problem with my lungs."

Ning Xi smiled slightly, but didn't answer or ask any questions. She didn't want Aunt Zhou to think she was doing it on purpose.

Aunt Zhou put away her smile and said seriously, "Thank you, Ning Yatou! Doctor Chen said that it was fortunate that it was discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be serious."

“I didn’t do anything.” Ning Xi still just smiled.

“Why are you such a nice girl? I was a little unhappy with you because I didn’t believe you!”

Aunt Zhou is a little ashamed. Compared with Ning Xi, she is a bit...

In the words of a son, you use the villain to take away whatever you want.

Ning Xi understood very well, "This is normal. No one wants others to say that she is not in good health."

Aunt Zhou was in a hurry to deliver things to her son, chatted with Ning Xi for a few words, and then left.

The two quickly set up the stall and greeted other customers. At about nine o'clock, Lao Zhou came with a load. Today he did not set up a stall at the entrance of the textile factory. Now he walked directly to Ning Xi's stall with a load.

After waiting for a while, when Ning Xi was free, Lao Zhou said excitedly, "Sister Ning, the ten kilograms of spicy strips and dried fish I took yesterday only went to two villages and were sold out. I'm following your method." , let people try it first, our spicy strips and dried fish are really delicious, no one who has tasted them will not buy them.”

Ning Xi also smiled when she heard what Lao Zhou said, "Congratulations to Brother Zhou for a good start."

"Hey! Let's all be happy together." Lao Zhou scratched his head with a smile, and deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Sister Ning, I will come to pick up the goods in the afternoon, please prepare more for me."

“How much do you want?”

“Let me bring you 40 kilograms each first. If I can’t sell them all when I go to the countryside in the afternoon, I will go to another town to set up a stall tomorrow.”

“No problem, I’d better come and pick it up around 2 o’clock.”

Lao Zhou saw Lu Nan being pushed this way from a distance, and he smiled and reminded Ning Xi, "Your little Lu is here."

Lu Bei pushed Lu Nan over. When they arrived at the stall, Lu Bei walked up to Zhang Ying and asked for spicy strips. Lao Zhou and Lu Nan said hello and left.

Knowing that he must be waiting for her to go back with him, he smiled and said, "We'll be there for a while."

“Okay.” Lu Nan nodded in agreement, took out a pear from the bag, peeled it, and handed it to her, “Try it.”

Ning Xi took a bite, nodded with satisfaction, and handed the pear to his mouth, "You can eat it too, it's very sweet."

Lu Nan turned his face away and did not eat. "You can't eat the pears separately."

"Do you still believe this? As a soldier, Comrade Lu, do you believe that feudal superstition will not be locked up in a small dark room?" Ning Xi handed the pear in her hand to Lu Nan, took out a pear, and peeled it. If you are caught engaging in feudal superstition, you will be criticized and educated. People in the establishment like Lu Nan and others cannot engage in this kind of behavior.

Lu Nan gave a rare explanation: “It’s not feudal superstition, it’s just a bad connotation.”

Zhang Ying came over and joked, "Split the pear, separate. Xiaonan is afraid of being separated from you. You girl, you don't even know whether you are stupid or not."

"Second sister-in-law, eat pears." Ning Xi put the pear in Zhang Ying's mouth and couldn't help but give her a look, telling her to talk more.

Zhang Ying didn’t mind that the pear had not been peeled yet, so she happily ate it.
