Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 267 You are only in your forties, you are already very young

Time passed day by day, and soon it was Christmas Eve, the night before Christmas.

In 2013, the atmosphere of holidays celebrated in Western countries such as Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in various domestic cities felt much richer than 10 years later.

You can see Christmas trees placed in front of some physical stores all over the streets, and some pictures of Santa Claus are also posted on the glass at the door of the store.

Even some shop assistants will wear Santa hats, and larger Christmas trees will also be placed in some squares.

"Aunt, Xiaoyue, it looks very lively outside today. Do you want to go out for a while?"

After having dinner and sitting for a while, Wu Yuansheng looked at the time and saw that it was not yet 7 o'clock, so he asked them.

On the 22nd floor, he could hear Christmas songs playing from the speakers in some shops on the street below.

Looking down from upstairs, there were many people walking back and forth on the street.

"Okay! It's still early now, let's go out for a while!"

Yi Xiaoyue agreed.

"It's cold outside, and it snowed two days ago. Please wear more clothes!"

Song Yuping heard that they wanted to go out for a walk and reminded them.

After Yi Xiaoyue put on some clothes, they went out and went downstairs together.

Because of the advantages of the living environment, this neighborhood is the most prosperous place in the entire city.

You don't need to drive, you can walk to People's Square only one mile away.

When he got downstairs, he saw a Christmas tree placed at the door toward the movie theater on the third floor. The lights on the "tree" were twinkling and beautiful.

Not far from the Christmas tree, standing outside the door was a beautiful girl wearing a Santa hat who looked to be in her mid-twenties.

Next to her feet was a cardboard box containing some apples, which seemed to be for sale.

There are several men gathered in front of the cardboard boxes to choose.

Looking elsewhere, there are Christmas trees of different sizes placed in front of many shops.

Instead of continuing to look here, he took Yi Xiaoyue's hand and walked towards the square.

"Mom, at this time every year, were you still doing business outside, roasting sweet potatoes?"

As she spoke, she held Song Yuping's hand with her other hand.

The street is very spacious, so three people can walk together holding hands without disturbing others.

"Yes! During such festivals, the roasted sweet potato business is very good. In previous years, I would ride a tricycle to the busy intersection near the square to sell sweet potatoes for a while!"

Song Yuping said, seeming to be reminiscing.

Ordinary people, in order to make a living, the more festivals they celebrate, the busier they become. This is a common phenomenon.

She is selling roasted sweet potatoes. What was her pre-2013 self doing on Christmas Eve? The memory is very vague.

But no matter what, he must have lived alone, and he was very lonely at that time.

After rebirth, it was fate to meet her.

"Mom! You haven't been out in the sun or wind for more than a month, and now your skin is as white as mine! When we went out together, those who didn't know thought you were my sister!"

When Wu Yuansheng was thinking about it, Yi Xiaoyue said to Song Yuping again.

He thought what she said made sense. Since her mother came here, her skin has become whiter day by day.

Because of the changes in her skin, Song Yuping indeed looks more beautiful than before.

"What are you talking about, kid! I'm already old, so I can't be as young as you say!"

Even though she said this, it was obvious that she was still very happy.

"If you don't believe me, ask Yuan Sheng!"

After Yi Xiaoyue finished speaking, she pulled his hand, meaning to let him express his opinion.

"Yes! Auntie, you are only in your forties. You are already very young. How can you be old! Just like Xiaoyue said, your skin has turned white. If someone who doesn't know sees it, they will definitely think that you are her sister! "

Of course he would follow up with such kind words that cost nothing.

The three of them walked through the pedestrian street here while talking. “Are there so many people coming out to play at night?”

When she saw the crowded crowd on Jiefang Road, Yi Xiaoyue said in surprise.

Compared with the street traffic when they came, there was obviously a lot more people here.

After all, there are few shops on their side of the street, and the houses are for rent.

"Many people from other parts of the city come to the square to play in the evening. Besides, there are many shopping malls selling clothes, shoes, and daily necessities here!"

He followed up.

Following the flow of people, they walked towards the square.

The more people there are, the more people will do business.

At night, you can see many stalls selling tricycles on the roadside.

These stalls include those selling toys, shoes and mats, various snacks, fried chestnuts, roasted sweet potatoes, roasted corn, and various groceries and small commodities.

"Yuping, is that you?"

When the three of them walked near the KFC in the square, there was a street stall selling various groceries (nail scissors, rubber bands, beads, small toys, etc.). A woman about 50 years old shouted in their direction, somewhat displeased. Dare to be sure.

"Sister Zhao, it's me, you came here to set up a street stall again at night!"

Song Yuping glanced at the woman who greeted her and said to her.

"I can't even recognize you the way you look now! You look like you are more than ten years younger! Is Xiaoyue next to you? I feel like you are not much older than her!"

The woman called Sister Zhao said.

"Aunt Zhao, it's me!"

After hearing what she said, Yi Xiaoyue said something to her.

"Sister Zhao, you are not as exaggerated as you said. I feel almost the same as before!"

Song Yuping said to her again.

"Why not? If you don't believe me, let Xiaoyue tell me and see if I tell lies!"

"Aunt Zhao, we just said this. My mother does look younger than when she was selling sweet potatoes."

The woman named Zhao said this, and Yi Xiaoyue said to her again.

"Yuping, from what Xiaoyue said, you haven't sold sweet potatoes recently, so what are you doing?"

"Me! Xiaoyue is getting married, and I'm busy with some matters related to her wedding!"

She didn't say anything about her pregnancy, maybe she was a little embarrassed to say it, after all, her daughter hadn't left the government yet.

"Xiao Yue is getting married. When? Who is this young man next to her? Is she her boyfriend?"

Aunt Zhao asked a lot of questions in succession, and after asking, she glanced at Wu Yuansheng.

"Yes, it's her boyfriend! The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is coming soon!"

Song Yuping said to her.

Then they chatted for a while.

During the chat, I also asked about Wu Yuansheng's situation.

Everyone has a pair of snobbish eyes. I just saw that Wu Yuansheng didn't look very good. Looking at Aunt Zhao's appearance, I wanted to say that he was too ordinary and not worthy of Yi Xiaoyue.

After hearing Song Yuping say that he bought a house nearby and opened a company, his attitude obviously changed a lot.

She said that both she and Yi Xiaoyue were lucky to find such a good son-in-law.

After chatting for a while, they all left.

"Mom! What I said before was right! If an acquaintance meets you again, he will definitely say the same thing!"

After walking some distance forward, Yi Xiaoyue said with a smile.
