The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 296
More and more people are shopping for groceries.

The old farmer's big rough hands were no longer enough.

He had an eye disease in one eye and couldn't see clearly, so he could only grope and turn over in the car.

Lin Yitang hid in the pile of cabbage, his head was dizzy from the smell of human fireworks in the vegetable market.

Unexpectedly, the enthusiastic vegetable buyer shouted: "Young man, get up and help the old man deliver the vegetables!"

Hearing this, he couldn't help squatting on the straw, and handed a few Chinese cabbages clumsily.

"My child, thank you!" The old farmer selling cabbage nodded.

He thought he was hitchhiking on the way, and he has encountered many vegetable sellers in his life.

But there are still very few who take the initiative to help.

Lin Yitang was also happy when he heard the praise, and took the initiative to help deliver the rest of the dishes to him.

Seeing that the vegetables were almost sold out, the old farmer wiped his hands on the coarse cotton padded jacket, took out two vegetable cakes from his bosom, ate one for himself, and stuffed the other for Tang.

"Child, eat."

After receiving the vegetable cake, Yitang smiled at him, not daring to speak for fear of being betrayed by the southern accent.

For a suspect like himself who is tied to the assassination of a politician, of course, the more careful the better.

"Where are you from? Where are you going?"

Yitang's eyes widened and he didn't speak, because he was actually choking on the hard vegetable pancakes.

The white-haired old farmer squinted at him with his remaining good eye, and felt sorry for him: "Poor, he looks so good, but he is dumb."

Anything tastes good when people are hungry.After biting for a while, stopping for a while, the whole pancake was eaten, and he stood up vigorously.

The old farmer found a spare cotton coat from the car and handed it to him, "Put it on, don't freeze."

He was a little moved, but he still didn't dare to say thank you. He bowed and thanked the old man just like he did when he was a child.

This morning, Lin Yitang didn't know that Qilan and Chen Xing also went to the vegetable market to buy a lot.

He nestled in the straw pile on the bullock cart, his body was warm, his stomach was not so hungry, and he was so comfortable that he seemed to be a different person from the inside out.

Just thinking about where to go next, I suddenly heard shouts from the crowd: "The police are here!"

This scares him enough, if he is recognized, he will be hard to fly, Sergeant Liu and that kid who has unreasonable thoughts about Lin Mi will definitely tear him to pieces.

He had no choice but to hide his head under the straw again, pretending to be asleep, thinking that he would follow the old farmer after selling the vegetables and then go for a while.

The crowd was noisy, and those people were gesticulating around the female thief, and some people were still taking advantage of troubled waters.

When the police arrived, the scene became even more chaotic.

Suddenly, a familiar female voice came to the ears of the hall through the noise:

"Brother, my wallet is gone too!"

This. Is Caiwei? !

Yitang reached out and pinched his face a few times to make sure if he was dreaming.

Immediately afterwards, another male voice sounded:
"Don't chase, there are too many people over there, it's dangerous."

"I just received this month's salary yesterday, so I'm not afraid."

Such a prudent behavior style is very similar to Jianhua.

Although the brothers and sisters of the Li family are really in the vegetable market at the moment and are very close to the bullock cart, Yitang is still not sure in his heart:

What if hallucinations?
Caiwei and Jianhua came to buy vegetables early in the morning.Li Yan stayed at home alone to recuperate.

A few days ago, I was in a coma and only drank some soup and water.Under the careful care of the two brothers and sisters, his injury is better than before, and it is time to eat some normal meals.

Caiwei, like Qilan, only looked at the vegetables when shopping, and took the wallet for the thief.

However, Qilan's wallet was completely returned to Zhao, and her wallet was gone forever.

Seeing his sister's dejected look, Jianhua reached out and rummaged through his pockets carefully.

"Look, we still have money!"

After speaking, he spread out his five fingers so that his sister could see the three shiny silver dollars on them.

Caiwei glanced at the silver dollar in her elder brother's hand, and smiled through tears: "Brother, we can have a good meal today."

"Well, we haven't eaten fish for a long time."

Caiwei was a little embarrassed: "I don't know how to cook fish, what if it tastes bad?"

Jianhua patted his chest: "I'll make it, it's like frying the you, and you can eat it with salt."

"Okay, let's go and look at the cabbage over there. I don't like radishes."

After Caiwei finished speaking, she walked over to the old farmer's ox cart.

"Grandpa, we want all your cabbages!"

Yitang must have come this time, so excited he climbed out of the car.

His hair was disheveled, his face was smudged, and he was wearing an ill-fitting peasant's cotton coat.

Compared with the days when I was a young master, the image is one in the sky and the other in the underground.

But the handsomeness of the facial features cannot be changed.

Before Yitang could speak, Caiwei, who had missed him for many days, recognized the person in front of her at a glance.

The circles of her eyes suddenly turned red. Just as she was about to call out his name, she suddenly remembered the news in the newspaper and had to watch silently.Tears flowed honestly and non-stop.

The old farmer saw that the person who bought the vegetables was a beautiful girl, and it was too late to be surprised. Seeing that she was crying so sadly again in a blink of an eye, he was also frightened.

"Girl, do you have no money with you?"

"You pick one of these dishes and eat it at home, and if you don't bring any money, just give it to me next time."

Yitang was at a loss when he saw Caiwei's face full of pear blossoms and rain.

In front of the old farmer, since he also pretended to be dumb, it would be a short while.Simply bent down, hugged the biggest cabbage, and handed it to Caiwei with both hands.

Jianhua first went to choose fish.He brought a big lively carp, bought another pack of tofu, and happily followed.

But when he saw his sister crying silently, his face changed.

A brother can't stand being bullied by his sister, and Jianhua himself is also short-sighted, so he came over to comment without seeing clearly:
"My sister's money was taken by a thief, and the money is with me, here it is for you."

"Don't look down on people just because you don't have money!"

Yitang watched Jianhua dangling in front of his eyes with a fish in one hand and tofu in the other, reasoning with a stern face, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Caiwei was afraid that the things in her brother's hands would be knocked together, so she quickly pulled him aside and said in a low voice:
"Brother, they didn't bully me. Don't you think that person is very familiar?"

After being reminded by his sister, Jianhua shook his head vigorously, and after a closer look, it was indeed the same room.

It's just that it's not convenient to recognize each other here.

I had no choice but to find an excuse temporarily: "Our family is short of a permanent worker, would you like to come?"

The hall understood, nodded again and again, as if there was such a thing, bowed to the old farmer again to thank him, and by the way, said goodbye.

Jianhua paid for the cabbage and happily walked away with the fish.

Caiwei also asked Yitang to carry a bag of tofu.Seeing that his hands and feet are unsteady, he was afraid that he would be tired, so he insisted on holding the cabbage by himself.

The old farmer looked at their backs for a while, and thought: This dumb boy is willing to work at the young lady's house, which is much better than growing and selling vegetables by himself.It's also a good way out.
