Chapter 380
During the Chinese New Year, there are temple fairs and big plays in the state capital. Li Meier is very interested in going to temple fairs, but not in theaters.

The temple fair sells everything, such as clothing materials, gold and silver jewelry, but because they are all placed on the stalls, the quality is not as good as that sold in the shop, but as long as the price is cheap, there are still many people who buy it.

The Li family is in a good family now, and Li Meier doesn't care about those flawed fabrics. They are just some novel gadgets, and she is still very interested, such as the kind of wooden bird that can pick out pieces of paper from the box. , she couldn't help but bought one, Kang Geer liked it very much, and kept playing with it along the way.

"This mechanism bird is really exquisite." Li Meier couldn't help but praise Kang Geer when she saw Kang'er playing vigorously.

Mrs. Li didn't think so, and sneered: "Isn't it just a wooden thing, and it costs fifty cents!" waste money.

"Grandmother, this ingenuity is worth the money." Li Mei'er said dissatisfied, "If there are other mechanism toys on that person's stall, I will buy a few more."

"You make a lot of money abroad! If you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how expensive it is. I will keep all the money you earn in the future, so as to save you from spending money indiscriminately." Mrs. Li stared and said unceremoniously.

Li Meier curled her lips, and muttered a few more words, thinking that Mrs. Li just had no knowledge, some things cannot be measured by money. "If you like it, I'll make some for you when I have time. This kind of mechanism toy is actually very simple." Jiang Shanqing walked to Li Meier and whispered in her ear.

Li Meier was happy now, and nodded at Jiang Shanqing with a smile.A few people strolled around and arrived near the county school. Li Meier saw the small restaurant they had been to several times, and said, "Let's go to Zhang's restaurant."

Mrs. Li looked around and saw that Zhang's shop was full of people, she frowned and said: "There are too many people, and there is nowhere to sit."

"It's okay, let sister Ah He find a stool for you to sit on, and we don't need to sit on it. I think his house seems to be selling mutton soup, and it smells really good." Li Meier said, regardless of Li's old lady's objection, Pull Jiang Shanqing and Kang Geer and run there.

Because today is a temple fair, Zhang Liang and his wife Deng set up a stall outside the shop, selling hot mutton soup and soybean milk.Because both of these are fragrant, the business in front of the shop is very good.

Relying on her small stature and slender stature, Li Meier squeezed through the crowd in a few moments. When she saw Zhang Liang, she smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, bring us four bowls of mutton soup, two bowls of soy milk, do you have any snacks?" Feel free to have a few."

Zhang Liang recognized Li Meier, and immediately responded happily, asking the new recruits in the store to arrange a place for Li Meier's family.

Li Meier squeezed out from the crowd again, and led her family to sit down on the seats.

The mutton soup, soy milk, and dim sum she ordered came out quickly, and Mrs. Deng personally brought them out, and she also gave an extra set of glutinous rice balls, and said to several people: "Business is busy today, I'm afraid I can't treat you well." , what do you want to eat, just order as much as possible, we treat you."

Naturally, the Li family would not eat in vain, and greeted each other a few words.Li Meier wandered around the shop and saw no sign of Zhang He, so she couldn't help asking: "Aunt Zhang, where is Sister Ah He? Why didn't you come today?" It stands to reason that her shop is doing business today. That's good, she will definitely come to help.

As soon as her daughter was mentioned, Deng's eyes and brows brought a smile, and she said, "Ahe got engaged in June, and she will get married in the spring of next year. I'm embroidering a wedding dress at home right now. Don't let her come to help in the shop."

When Li Meier heard this, everyone in the Li family said a lot of congratulations. Only Li Meier was silent and dazed. She remembered that Ahe's sister was in love with her little uncle. I have never planned to get married. Sister Ahe is also eighteen this year. It is indeed the age to get married. If it continues, she should become an old girl. Sister Ahe knows that there is no possibility for her to be with her sweetheart, so she will compromise Marry someone else, just marrying someone she doesn't like, will she be happy in the future?

Li Meier was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, how many women nowadays can marry the person they like. There are always a few couples like her parents who have their own intentions, and their lives are still going well. If she If you don't meet someone you like, will you marry a husband who is of the same family but you don't know so well?After thinking about it, Li Meier unconsciously looked at Jiang Shanqing who was drinking soy milk.I wonder if Brother Shanqing has a woman he likes in his heart...

Maybe Li Meier stared at Jiang Shanqing too scorchingly, Jiang Shanqing soon realized something was wrong, he also turned his head to look at Li Meier, and asked with a strange expression: "What's the matter, do you want to drink soy milk, I'll call you bowl?"

Li Meier suddenly woke up, her cheeks turned crimson, and she immediately said, "Brother Shanqing, would you like to try my mutton soup? of!"

Jiang Shanqing laughed when he heard the words, and joked: "How do you know there is no smell if you haven't eaten it?" He just didn't like the smell of mutton, so he didn't choose mutton soup.

Li Meier suddenly felt embarrassed that the lie had been exposed, her cheeks became even redder, until it reached the base of her ears, and she stammered, "I heard what others said..."

Jiang Shanqing smiled and didn't say anything, took another clean spoon, scooped up some mutton soup and tasted it, then said with a smile: "It really doesn't have any smell, it's quite fresh."

Li Meier didn't know why, seeing Jiang Shanqing's smile, her heart was beating non-stop, almost making her think that her heart was out of order, she didn't dare to look into the other's eyes, just lowered her head and drank the soup silently, but How can I not taste the taste of this mutton soup.

After the whole family had finished eating, they were going to watch a show on the stage. Mrs. Li seemed to think that the mutton soup from this family was delicious, so she said to Li Meier: "You can try it at home, just follow his home's recipe. This taste does."

Li Meier was still a little out of her mind, and answered absently, without looking at the road, she walked towards the front, and was almost rubbed by the bullock cart coming from behind.

Jiang Shanqing quickly pulled her to his side, and whispered in her ear, "What are you thinking, watch the road carefully."
