Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 53

On July 7, Hongqi Commune.

The Zhao family was still waiting outside the examination room.

Zhao Wenqiu packed up her bedding by noon, and now her brothers and sisters were guarding her bedding, waiting to go home after the exam.

This calm and calm is no one else.

Sure enough, as soon as the winding bell rang, the girl ran out with her ponytails shaking.

She rushed in front of Zhao Wenmu and stretched out her two little hands.

"Give me the money, I want to enter the city!"

"Xiaoqiu, how did you do in the exam?"

Zhao Wenyan pulled Zhao Wenqiu aside, Song Yun, Zhao Jing and Liu Xiumei immediately surrounded her.

"Sister, I'm sure you'll have no problem getting into college!"

Zhao Wenqiu said triumphantly, waving his hands.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief seeing her relaxed expression, which did not seem to be fake.

Little sister is still reassuring since she was a child.

"Okay, let my younger brother take you into the city!"

Eldest sister Zhao Wenyan made the decision.

Zhao Jing also looked over, Xing's eyes were full of anticipation.

"No problem, I will bring Xiaoqiu and Ah Jing into the city today!"

Zhao Wenmu explained that after Zhao Wenlin returned to the village, he told his two followers to transport the crayfish and crabs to the convenience market.

He picked up Zhao Jing by car, Zhao Wenqiu got on Zhao Jing's bicycle, and the three of them went into the city.

Zhao Wenmu proudly offered 100 yuan to Zhao Wenqiu, asking her to buy whatever she wanted.

Zhao Wenqiu is not as free and easy as she was at the beginning. After all, she is just a 17-year-old girl, holding 100 yuan, her face flushed with excitement, and she doesn't speak.

The two women walked around the supply and marketing cooperative excitedly, looking at this and that, but they were always reluctant to buy.

But it doesn't matter, Zhao Wenmu bought everything they looked at twice.

Zhao Wenqiu was so scared that he no longer dared to touch casually.

Zhao Jing then pushed him out.

Don't let him mess around here.

When it was nearly five o'clock, Zhao Wenmu took them to the convenience market, where there were many new things for them to browse and buy as they pleased.

Go to the Zhiling food stall first.

Two young and beautiful girls wandered left and right in the convenience market, and looked again, feeling novelty in everything they saw.

The two of them rarely had the opportunity to enter the city.

"Third sister, there are still kebabs over there, come quickly, let's buy some skewers and try them!"

Zhao Wenqiu dragged Zhao Jing through the stalls.

They bought candied haws, roasted sweet potatoes, and roasted chestnuts. Zhao Jing was a little bit reluctant at first, but seeing Zhao Wenqiu's happy face and thinking that the little girl had just finished her college entrance examination, she couldn't bear to spoil her.

Zhao Wenqiu only tasted a few mouthfuls of each dish, and stopped eating. The little girl just tasted something new.

Zhao Jing thought the roasted chestnuts were delicious, soft and glutinous, sweet and delicious. She ate a few and wrapped the rest carefully.

Zhao Wenqiu ate a few mouthfuls of kebabs, frowned and said, "It's not good."

The meat was stale and had a weird smell.

It wasn't evenly baked and it was mushy in places.

Lamb kebabs are not cheap, and the two of them were reluctant to pay, so they ate them all in the end.

Zhao Jing saw a seller of wild vegetables not far away, and was immediately interested. After all, her family had been digging wild vegetables for more than two months, and the family's conditions had improved since selling wild vegetables.

"How much is a catty of Hui Hui Cai?"

It happened that a big lady stopped in front of the stall, grabbed a handful of Hui Hui Cai and asked.

Zhao Jing could see clearly that the Hui Hui Cai was processed very cleanly without any impurities, but it was already a bit old, after all, it was already summer.

"It costs 3 cents a catty. It's dug up during the day and it's fresh!"

The merchant raised his head and said.

Sure enough, as my younger brother said, wild vegetables are worthless now.

It costs 3 cents a catty, and if the sales volume is good, the daily income is also very good, but the hawker's business is obviously mediocre, with only a few customers.

She suddenly didn't want to go shopping.

The younger brother should be busy with work, Zhao Jing feels that now she just wants to watch and guard the younger brother.

"Xiaoqiu, let's help third brother!"

Zhao Jing pulled Zhao Wenqiu to leave.

"Sister, wait a moment, let me go shopping again!"

Zhao Wenqiu still had some thoughts, but suddenly she closed her eyes and gently sniffed her surroundings.

"Sister, what does it smell like? It smells so good!"

"Just in that direction!"

As he spoke, Zhao Wenqiu pulled Zhao Jing and rushed forward following the smell.

Zhao Jing also smelled it, she carefully identified it, it was the smell of her own spicy crayfish!
The two women quickly crowded in front of Zhao Wenmu's booth.

Immediately shocked by the crowd of people in front of me!

Zhao Wenmu's small booth was surrounded by three floors of people inside and three floors outside. Standing outside, you could only see the smoky oily smoke, but you couldn't see what was going on inside.

In the huge venue, dozens of tables are already filled with more than half of them.

Zhao Wenmu asked someone to order a batch of iron trays, a bit like the stainless steel trays used for barbecue in later generations.

The bright red crayfish are stacked on the tray, which makes people appetite.

Zhao Wenqiu couldn't help swallowing as he watched the plates of crayfish and big crabs being served on the table.

The diners talked and laughed, eating happily.

In this era, people's hair is generally very thick, and the smiles on their faces are pure and simple.

A few men each had a bottle of beer, and they didn't need a cup. They drank a sip of wine from the bottle, and then had a crayfish, not to mention how refreshing it was.

The girl did not show any weakness either, giggling and touching the bottle, the soda bubbling in the bottle.

This is a good thing!Guangzhou Shashi soda, the most fashionable drink in this era, bar none!

The big white pear and the Arctic Ocean, which have been popular for more than ten years, have not yet appeared.

Zhao Jing said with a smile: "This is spicy crayfish and spicy crab, your brother's new research!"

Then she lowered her voice again, put it close to Zhao Wenqiu's ear and said:
"It's actually crayfish and crabs in the river, but it's delicious!"

The two immediately squeezed into the crowd, which quickly aroused dissatisfaction.

"Hey, those two lesbians, why don't you line up!"

"It is! It is!"

Zhao Wenmu noticed this, and seeing that it was the two of them, he quickly said loudly:

"Comrade, those are my daughter-in-law and my younger sister, please make way!"

"Brother, your business is really good! The crayfish are so delicious!"

Zhao Wenqiu stuck out his tongue and squeezed over, dancing and saying.

Zhao Jing didn't say anything, immediately rolled up her sleeves, washed her hands, and started handling the crabs.

Today, the family is understaffed and there are so many crabs. At this moment, half of the crabs have not been cut and marinated.

Zhao Wenmu was busy frying crabs as soon as he arrived, and the two little followers were also so busy that they didn't even care about handling the crabs.

"Aqiu, find a place to eat by yourself first."

Zhao Wenmu smiled and packed a tray of crayfish and crabs for her, and handed her a bottle of soda for Zhao Wenqiu to eat first.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and today the little girl is the biggest.

Zhao Wenqiu, who finished the college entrance examination, is the biggest hero of the whole family.

Zhao Wenqiu has never eaten spicy crayfish and spicy crab!
She didn't refuse, took the plate happily, said "Brother, I'll come over as soon as I finish eating", and ran to the side to eat.

In less than 10 minutes, Zhao Wenqiu came back with an empty plate.

Her forehead was shiny, her mouth was slightly open, and she kept fanning the wind with her hand, with a hot and enjoyable look on her face.

No way, it's really delicious!
"Brother, crayfish are so delicious!"

"Are you still eating? Give you some more?"

Zhao Wenmu looked at her fondly.

"Don't eat, don't eat! I'll help you!"

After Zhao Wenqiu said that, he went to wash his hands, helped to serve food, wipe the table, and clear away the dishes.

The little girl was not stage fright at all, and greeted the diners warmly.

"Comrade, your spicy crayfish and beer!"

"Comrade, why don't you try the spicy crab, I guarantee you won't regret it!"

"Comrade, do you want another bottle of drink? Crayfish and soda are really refreshing!"

Zhao Wenqiu was like a lively lark, shuttling between the tables.

It caused some young men to look around frequently.

Zhao Jing handled the crabs one by one, wiped her hands, and took a clean towel to wipe Zhao Wenmu's sweat.

Don't forget to hand him a glass of water.

Under the khaki light, Zhao Wenmu's side face was sharp-edged, with tough lines, and his expression was focused and resolute. Zhao Jing stared at him with soft light in his eyes.

Many young men and women cast envious eyes on the two.

With the help of Zhao Jing and Zhao Wenqiu, the pressure on Zhao Wenmu's side suddenly eased a lot.

After dealing with the first wave of crowds, he could finally take a break.

Zhao Wenmu didn't relax, but went to the crowd who were having dinner, and asked each table if there were any deficiencies.

Even the best things have their drawbacks.

Customers are the best teachers!

"Comrade, there is nothing to say about the taste of your crayfish, but you have been waiting for too long, and there are still many people jumping in line!"

The two lesbians said with some embarrassment that the two girls really didn't like the feeling of being squeezed in the middle.

And there are people who join their team!

Zhao Wenmu also noticed this problem, he really didn't have manpower to maintain order today.

After the crowd left that night, he erected two rows of low wooden stakes in front of the food stall and tied the rope, so that customers could only line up here in the future.

As for the name of Gaoda, there is no such thing!
In that case, it is necessary to arrange for individuals to issue and call numbers, which is a waste of manpower.

"Comrade, there are a lot of crayfish and crab shells. I think many people just throw them on the ground. It's not clean, and it's troublesome for you to clean up at night."

The other girl also whispered.

Zhao Wenmu looked at the crayfish shells and crab shells everywhere under his feet.

Indeed it is!
Although Zhao Wenqiu and the two little guys came to collect the garbage actively, some people just threw it under their feet while eating!
A batch of trash cans had to be ordered, one for each table.

"Comrade, can you make some other flavors of crayfish and crab? People like me who can't eat spicy food want to eat but dare not eat it. It's too painful to eat a few to satisfy our cravings!"

An elderly man said gently.

"Comrade, garlic crayfish and thirteen-spice crayfish will be launched in two days. They are not spicy, you can try them!"

Zhao Wenmu said with a smile.

"That's a good feeling!"

When Zhao Wenmu was doing market research, Zhao Wenqiu followed closely behind.

Is this still the ignorant third brother?
