Paper horse incense shop

Chapter 93 Finding relatives and strange news
  As a neighboring county to Anxing, Pingyang County's development is naturally not much better.

When I was on the village bus, I could still see some people wearing turbans driving donkey carts loaded with goods. It looked like they were going to the market.

I got out of the car with a lot of bags, and after running all the way, and because I had a lot of money now, I was quite wealthy, so I took a passenger taxi and headed all the way to the address.

About an hour and a half after leaving the Zima Xiang Shop, I arrived at my uncle’s butcher shop.

This is a street store facing a vegetable market. The facade is a little dilapidated. The outside of the second floor is covered with all kinds of greasy wires. From a distance, you can smell a fishy smell in the wind.

I wanted to put down my things and straighten my clothes before going in. Unexpectedly, before I put my things down, I bumped into a half-grown man who came out from inside.

I am not very tall, so I almost fell to the ground due to this impact.

But the young man didn't even apologize. He looked me up and down with a pair of triangular eyes, made a face, and walked away.

gone? !
  I have already found the address. The person coming out of this butcher shop must be my little nephew, right?

Why are you so rude?

I frowned immediately, and before I could stop the other party, I heard a clear female voice behind me shout:

"Yaozu! Why don't you say sorry when you bump into someone?"

"I won't talk about you at other times, but if you drive away customers, my father will scold you!"

Bai Yaozu's laughing voice came across half the street:
  "Scold me? Even if I kill you, you won't scold me!"

"You are the only one who still wants to take care of me? Don't forget your name, Zhaodi!"

Yaozu?
  Zhao Di?

This idea of ​​favoring boys over girls is engraved in the name!
  I was a little unhappy, and I couldn't help showing it on my face. I turned around and saw that the thin girl was also blinking at me with her big, watery eyes.

She quickly raised her head and glanced at me, seeming a little shy. When she saw my expression clearly, she became even more embarrassed and stuttered:
  "Yes, I'm sorry sister, my brother, he is not sensible."

"What do you want to buy? I'm going to call my dad now."

The girl named Zhaodi is thin, like all girls named Zhaodi.

She was wearing a rose-red short-sleeved shirt that was inappropriate for her age, with gaudy lace on the neckline.

Apparently he picked up the leftover clothes of an older woman and wore them.

And most importantly, it’s winter!

Although Anxing is not as good as in the north, the lowest temperature can reach below zero!
  How could a girl who looked thirteen or fourteen be dressed like this?

My mind was confused for a moment, and I suddenly felt angry. I tried to slow down my tone and said:
  "Your father's name is Bai Beiwang, right? If so, call him here."

The little girl was too shy to look into my eyes, but she obeyed my words and obediently turned around and entered the butcher shop.

Soon the sound of stepping on the floor of the butcher shop was heard, and the sound of two footsteps, one light and one heavy, quickly came downstairs.

A woman's high-pitched voice yelled at Zhao Di, with a steady stream of insults coming from her mouth:

"It's useless to ask you to take care of your brother!"

"Our family is really raising you for nothing! You are eating from our family and can't make money for food. You can't take care of your younger brother. What use can you do?"

"How about selling your ass while you're young! You'll save yourself asking your father and me for money every day!" This is obviously Bai Beiwang's daughter-in-law, but she's not Zhaodi's biological mother. It's hard to tell.

I frowned when I heard that, Bai Beiwang, who was like a mountain of meat, came from inside, his body was trembling with fat, and he didn't forget to solicit guests:
  "What do guests want to buy? I have everything here, and it's all fresh."

The moment Bai Beiwang saw my face clearly, the voice in his mouth seemed to be cut off suddenly, and he even forgot to close his mouth. From a distance, it looked a bit funny.

Bai Beiwang shouted uncertainly:
  "Sister Wanying?"

Wanying, Bai Wanying.

It turns out that I really look a lot like my mother. Even an old friend from twenty years ago could look at my face and call out Bai Wanying's name easily.

I shook my head gently and motioned to Bai Zhaodi who was hiding in the corner to come over. I gave her everything in my hand and said:

"Look at my face carefully. I'm not Bai Wanying. She's gone. I'm her daughter."

"I happen to have some free time. I'll bring something with me and stop by to see you."

Bai Beiwang froze on the spot for a moment, his fat face twitching again and again, as if he was digesting what I said.

But the mean-looking woman next to him reacted very quickly. She immediately grabbed the thing from Bai Zhaodi's hand, raised her chin and asked her to find her brother, and then greeted her with a smile on her face:
  "Isn't Wanying the name of my eldest aunt? She turns out to be my niece! I am your aunt! Look at this beautiful young lady, my eldest aunt has raised you well, hahaha."

"How did you leave? Why didn't you make any sound? And here you come suddenly."

"Hey, here you come, and you brought so many things~ Hey, what is this box of calcium-supplementing fish oil? It's a good thing! Isn't it cheap?"

My aunt kept talking, but she didn't leave any time for anyone to reply. She kept looking through the gifts I brought with her eyes shining brightly.

I was a little tired of dealing with such a philistine person, so I didn't want to answer at all. I turned to my uncle and waited for him to say something.

The uncle was silent for a long time, then recovered from the shock, raised his fat arm and scratched his head:

"What's your name, niece?"

"When did your mother leave? Who is your father? Why did you leave without saying a word? You could find us, why didn't you come earlier? It's been so many years, and your grandmother is gone too."

The hygienic conditions of this butcher shop are really not good. I usually eat pork, but today the smell was really nauseating. I suppressed my inner discomfort a little and replied:
  "Liu Bai, just call me Liu Bai."

"My mother passed away early, and my father also passed away. I only learned about you recently."

I try to keep my words as concise as possible to reduce the chance of opening my mouth to ingest bad smells.

But I don’t know what they automatically imagined.

The uncle thought for a while, with a happy look on his face:
  "Good! It's great to have a family reunion!"

"Since your parents are gone, I am the only uncle, so I will take care of you from now on. You can stay here from now on, and I will cut meat and cook for you now!"

"Dongmei, heat up the oil!"

My aunt was still picking up the gifts excitedly. She curled her lips when she heard this and opened her mouth to curse. But when she met my eyes, the hand holding the gift suddenly sank. She immediately stopped and moved back obediently. Went to the kitchen.

I had no intention of staying and immediately said:
  "No, I just came to see you. After seeing you, I left. I have a place to live now, just in the next county."

Are you kidding me?
  Looking at Zhao Di's appearance, you can tell how harsh this family is on girls. Why should I stay?
  Wearing mean women's hand-me-downs?
