He walks against the light with her

Chapter 2 What is Like?

Jiang Li looked at him without blinking.

The boy frowned, and said again: "I want six."

Jiang Li said "Yes", picked six apples at random, and threw them on the scale together with the bag.

Three catties and six taels.

The boy took the bag from her and asked, "How much..."

The last word "money" did not have time to say it.

Jiang Li bent down and carried the empty basket to the backyard.

Well, I thought someone would finally be able to pry her mouth open.

Chen Yuexiang shook her head, and replied the boy's words: "There are 23 in total, let's count as twenty."

Good-looking, naturally much more favorable.

The boy scanned the Alipay payment QR code posted on the wall.

A few seconds later, a notification sound came from the mobile phone placed on the cash register, "Alipay received 23 yuan".

The boy glanced in the direction of the backyard: "It's not easy to do business."

Well, he is a master who is not short of money.

With a few more people like this coming to patronize, her fruit shop will open a branch sooner or later.

After sending him out, Chen Yuexiang asked casually, "Young man, you just moved here?"

Strange face, never seen it before.

The young man replied: "My name is Shen Yan, and I am a tenant of the No. [-] courtyard."

Courtyard No. [-], the house of Grandma Chunhua.

"Since we live here, we are a family," Chen Yuexiang enthusiastically saw off the guests, "come back more often in the future, I have all kinds of fruits here, cheap and fresh."

Shen Yan smiled and politely replied "Yes".

There is no "everything you expect" from tangerines.

When he came out again, Shen Yan had already left.

Jiang Li stood in the corner, looking at the door.

"He's gone," Chen Yuexiang said in a chatty tone, "If you want to see him, you have to go to Grandma Chunhua's house, it's not far, just take two turns."

She is someone who has experienced it, and just now she saw that there was a little subtlety between the two of them.

Jiang Li raised his eyelids, but didn't answer.

Suddenly, there was a force pulling her sleeve.

"Sister Jiang Li." It was Miao Miao's voice.

Soft, like cotton candy.

Jiang Li lowered his eyes.

"Sister Jiang Li," the soft little girl tugged at the cuff of her hoodie, blinking her bright eyes, "Look..."

She stretched out her hand and spread it out. In the palm of her hand was a glass marble.

The transparent circle embedded with the pattern of red petals reflects the colorful sunlight.

"I picked it up in the backyard."

When Miao Miao saw this glass marble, she thought about giving it to Sister Jiang Li.

My sister is good-looking, and she will be very happy when she receives a gift, and she will smile when she is happy, and she looks even better when she smiles.

Jiang Li said a faint "Oh".

Miao Miao shook her sleeves and handed over the glass marbles: "Sister Jiang Li, I'll give it to you."

Jiang Li reached out to take it: "Thank you."

The smooth glass marble rolled in her palm, feeling cold.

"Sister, do you like it?"

Every time my mother buys her something, she will ask, Miao Miao, do you like it, what my mother bought for you.

Then she smiled with crooked eyebrows, nodded heavily, and said she liked it.

like?

Jiang Li looked down at the immature little girl, slightly startled.

what is like

……

The home page of the mobile phone showed a missed call, and when he left the store, Shen Yan called back.

After connecting, the person on the other end shouted: "Brother."

Shen Yan's younger brother, Shen Qi, is fifteen years old, nine years younger than him.

Hearing a light cough, Shen Qi asked: "Brother, is your throat uncomfortable again?"

Shen Yan slowed down: "It's okay."

In winter, his throat would be sore, dry and itchy. He just ran out of throat lozenges, so he thought about using food supplements to buy some citrus to try.

Unfortunately, none nearby.

I can only wait until tomorrow to go to the pharmacy in the county to see if the throat lozenges that I often eat are sold.

Shen Qi: "Why didn't you answer the phone when I called you just now?"

On the blue mudstone road, Shen Yan walked forward at a leisurely pace, with the bag in his hand swinging back and forth with his movements: "I'm buying apples."

"Apple?" If I remember correctly, apples are the last thing his brother likes.

Feel astringent.

Shen Yan said with a smile: "I don't have mandarins, so I bought some apples."

Lu tangerine clears the throat and sharpens the throat. If there is no such thing, pears should be the next best choice.

Shen Qi asked curiously: "Isn't it astringent?"

The warm winter sun covered the old pavement with a layer of gold, and when the wind blew, the fallen leaves floated to his feet.

Shen Yan returned to him after a long time: "It's okay, the apples in that store should be sweeter than oranges."

Ok.

What his brother said was what he said.

Anyway, he doesn't care which is sweeter, the orange or the apple.

"Brother, when are you coming back?"

Shen Yan made a "hmm" sound, as if thinking, and waited for a few seconds before replying: "After a year."

Shen Qi asked: "When is the next year? What day? What date?"

Some people think that after the eighth day of the first month is the new year, others think that it will be the fifteenth day of the first month.

Shen Qi didn't want to wait that long, it would be better after the first day of the first lunar month.

However, his brother did not give a specific time: "Be good, I will come to pick you up after the next year."

Shen Qi said "Oh" in disappointment.

Shen Yan could hear his emotions: "Have you encountered something unpleasant?"

Shen Qi didn't say he was unhappy: "I want to live with my brother."

"Be obedient." At present, Shen Yan can only coax like this.

Shen Qi changed the subject: "Brother, where do you live now?"

Turning the corner and walking into an alley, at the door not far away, there was a man standing on a chair pasting couplets.

Beside him is his child: "Dad, it's crooked, it's crooked."

The man moved his position, turned his head and asked, "Now, are you upright?"

The child clapped his hands happily: "It's right! It's right!"

When Shen Yan passed by, the child looked up at him.

It was cold and windy, and the chubby little face was flushed red.

He smiled, and said in a childish voice: "Brother, I wish you a happy new year."

Mom and Dad said, it's the Chinese New Year, and everyone should say hello when they see it.

This is basic courtesy.

Shen Yan paused, and smiled back: "Happy New Year to you too."

Immediately afterwards, he told Shen Qi: "Fufu Village is a beautiful place."

……

At lunch time, Chen Yuexiang carried Miao Miao back home, and Jiang Li was the only one left in the store.

She stood at the door, the sun was just right, shining on her body, making her feel warm.

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated.

Jiang Li picked it up without making a sound.

It's her on the phone...

To outsiders, they are best friends, but in Jiang Li's own words, they don't know what the relationship is.

From childhood to adulthood, she never laughed, never cried, never happy, let alone angry.

As the saying goes, flowers have colorful, people have seven emotions and six desires.

But she...

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, desire, none of them.

"Your monster's heart is like a piece of iron inlaid. It's hard and cold. It can't be broken or hurt when knocked."

Because of this, in her eyes, people in the world can be divided into two categories.

Those who can be named, those who cannot be named.

Those who know the phone number can be divided into those who know the phone number and those who don't.

This "I don't know what's the relationship" lady belongs to the category that can be called by name and knows the phone number.

Her name is Su Yunsheng.

　We met for the first time.

　　The heroine, Jiang Li, and the hero, Shen Yan.

　　Shen Qi (qi) Shen Yan's younger brother, 15 years old.

　　Reported by the Ginger couple, please give me your advice for future stories!
