The origin of the star lotus world

Chapter 1954 Text

Chapter 1890

I remember that at noon on the Dragon Boat Festival this year, after having dinner at the Northern Restaurant, I wanted to go to the open-air market, which was across the street, to see what I could buy and to have a shopping budget. But when I passed by, I saw that it was almost time for the morning market to end and there were still so many people in the market, so I didn't go in and just left.

I was walking home with my packed meals and two plastic bags containing mugwort sachets, and I met a flower seller on the street. If I agreed to bargain, I could buy a bouquet of flowers as decoration. I had bought them several times before as short-term decorations that didn't last long. But the young woman with glasses said that she didn't over-price me and that she couldn't get any cheaper, so I didn't buy anything, and it didn't matter.

Some flowers are just for decoration, and they may not survive after a few days or a week at home. It is difficult to have professional maintenance technology and conditions. If you want to keep flowers gorgeous and colorful, there are secrets and methods. If the merchants use potions to grow flowers, and there is no such substance at home to maintain them, those delicate flowers may be more likely to wither and die. Although flowers and plants grown in soil are not bright and colorful, they can be kept alive for a longer time.

I had already bought garlic for cold dishes at home, and I lined up to buy Kirin melons. Most of the watermelons on the stalls were whole, with dozens of watermelons on display, and some were cut in half. I bought half a watermelon, which was already cut and covered with plastic wrap. It was weighed and priced at 10.60 yuan. The store owner was okay, and I was fine with 10 yuan, unlike some stall owners who were unwilling to give any concessions.

I also asked the female storekeeper about the weight of the watermelon. Other customers paid more than 20 yuan for a whole watermelon, and many customers did not ask about the weight. Unlike this fat guy, who was stingy and chose a small watermelon, and even weighed half of it. The storekeeper had already given him a few cents discount, but he still asked about the specific weight.

I went to the breakfast shop in the market. I wanted to eat steamed dumplings, but the seats in the shop were full. A long-haired woman took her meal and went to the place where she took the meal to order fried dough sticks and steamed buns. The employees in the shop were very busy, and some were still making breakfast. On weekends, many people get up late and have a delayed breakfast, so the shop was full of customers. I heard that the steamed dumplings and dumplings in the shop can be mixed, which is nine yuan a tray, and the price of meat and vegetarian noodles is the same. I didn't have breakfast, but bought two plastic cups of soy milk to take away and wait for lunch.

I went to the store next to the beer and roast duck shop and bought big buns with carrots and eggs and celery and eggs for only two yuan each, but they were all cold, not hot. There were hundreds of big buns piled up in the store, and there might be more in stock. There were also a lot of other pastries in stock, which should have been made by the store in the early morning. The store's zongzi cost five yuan for three. I bought three candied date zongzi, but did not buy the red date zongzi with date pits. That small shop has a good business, and often prepares thousands of servings of staple food. With so many prepared, it is not worried about sales. Although it is just a small shop, it serves many people. Sometimes, you have to queue up to buy things in that store. Because the author went to the beer and roast duck shop many times during this period to buy goods, he saw that the pastry shop next to it had a good business, and the goods were moderately priced, so there were many customers shopping, which was much better than the business of many stores around.

I carried my things home. I had enough time, so I walked slowly without being in a hurry. The sun was shining brightly that day, and it was very warm, fully demonstrating the power of the heat energy of the summer heat. This is not the hottest time in the area. During the peak heat, the temperature will exceed 40 degrees, the ground will be white and shiny under the scorching sun, and you can even vaguely see waves of heat in the air. When there is a high temperature warning, people are advised not to stay outdoors for a long time in the sun to avoid heat stroke. Some summer days are very hot.

On my way home, when I was crossing the traffic light, I saw a young man walking, he was carrying a bag of cherries, and other fruits and vegetables, he was carrying a lot of things. Those cherries are estimated to cost 50 or 60 yuan, depending on the variety, the cheapest ones are more than 20 yuan per pound, and some are still 30 or 40 yuan per pound. In the shopping program of the big supermarket, I saw a box of cherries for more than 100 yuan, that is, it is packed in boxes, it should be about 5 pounds, a little cheaper than the retail price. But the weather is so hot, if it is not refrigerated at low temperature, I don’t know if it will go bad.

That market has many customers all year round. It can be said that it serves the population of dozens of communities. Some people have to take a bus from a long distance to buy goods in that market. One morning, I took a bus and saw an old man with gray hair talking to an old lady with a cart. The old man said that he must have bought a hundred yuan worth of things in the market, right? The old lady looked more than 60 years old. She said that it was more than that. She bought several kilograms of ribs and fresh fish, as well as a lot of fruits and vegetables. She spent two hundred yuan. She still had to cook and wash when she got home. It was troublesome. She was so old. After serving the second generation, she had to continue to serve the third generation. Every day, she was like a professional nanny going to work. From time to time, she had to use her pension to add money to the subsidy. She had to satisfy her children and grandchildren before she could provide for her old age. She couldn't afford to offend them. She insisted on doing what she could do. I hope they will say good things to her in the future. The same is true for the elderly in many families. For the good of the family, they have to work hard.

When people reach retirement age and have a leisurely time, some people will ignore everything else and only take care of themselves, but many people will consider their families. There are still many people who work and do their best to take care of their families.

Housework is also labor and should not be despised or treated poorly. We should thank our family for their help and care, because they are family members, and they will give us so much kindness and care, which not everyone can give.

After the author got home, he went to the kitchen and steamed the long eggplants he had bought earlier in a large stainless steel steamer. The smart gas stove has a timing function. When the time is up, it will automatically close the valve and sound a reminder, and the range hood will be turned on to absorb the steam.

At that time, I still had some time, so I sat at the coffee table in the living room, with a standing fan blowing air next to me. The water-cooled tower fan was already in use in the bedroom, and there was a small rechargeable black fan on the bed. The battery capacity of that small fan has gradually decreased with use. It used to last for three or four hours at the first wind speed, but now it only lasts for more than two hours. It is used with a power bank from many years ago, and it is also powered by an external port connected to the computer.

The capacity of that power bank is 6,000 mAh. It was given to me by the male clerk as a gift for my Momoda phone. That was nearly ten years ago. The screen of that phone has long been burned. I used that phone to read and modify the opening chapter of the first part of the Fantasy Book of Heaven. It can no longer be used many years ago, but the power bank I gave it to you can still be used. The battery capacity has been reduced a lot, but it can still be used to charge a small fan with low power. The power bank with one green side and one white side is quite small and light. It is just a plastic shell outside the battery with a flashlight bead. There is no extra part. It can only be charged slowly with the original one-ampere current. It cannot be charged with a higher current. Because the charger of the Fog Light Fantasy phone not only has a nine-volt two-ampere mode, but is also compatible with the old-fashioned five-volt one-ampere charging, so the old-fashioned connection cable is still used to charge the power bank, and there is no need to replace the later-produced data cable. The data transmission speed of the previous port is relatively slow. The later-produced data cable has an upgraded and optimized terminal, which has greatly improved the transmission efficiency. The new data cable is thicker and supports a current of up to 10 amps, and the charging speed is at the leading level at this stage.

  The positive progress and development of science and technology have made it no longer necessary to wait. It is fast and practical, with better standards and a better experience.
