In the ordinary life of Crayon Shin-chan

On a very, very cold night, there was a pair of young boys selling pickled salted fish on the street corner. They stood in the middle of the road and kept trying to sell the dried fish in their baskets to passers-by.

"Hiss, it's so cold." Mingxu felt a wave of chills coming over him, and he rubbed his hands out of habit and looked around.

"... What the hell, I seem to be in a foreign country? It's snowing, damn, why are my clothes so thin?" Mingxu couldn't help but complain, but when he saw the basket in his hand and the salted fish in the basket, Mingxu's mouth twitched. Here it comes again, why did he come here this time? !

"Xiao Xu, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Xin rubbed his hands and asked Ming Xu who was talking incomprehensibly.

“Nothing…” Mingxu waved his hands. It seemed he had to sell some things, otherwise he would either starve to death or freeze to death in this place.

Mingxu looked at the salted fish in his basket, took a deep breath of cold air, and mustered up the courage to start shouting: "Salted fish, delicious salted fish, don't miss it if you pass by! It can be paired with many things, delicious salted fish, you can try it, don't miss it if you pass by~" His voice was childish, but it revealed a spirit of not admitting defeat. Xiaoxin looked at Mingxu's appearance and began to seriously promote his salted fish.

Passers-by hurried by, and few stopped. Mingxu was not discouraged. He continued to shout loudly and showed the salted fish in the basket to passers-by. He tried hard to describe the deliciousness and nutrition of salted fish, hoping to attract the attention of passers-by, while Xiaoxin kept jumping to attract the attention of passers-by.

Finally, a middle-aged woman stopped. She looked at Mingxu and Xiaoxin's red cheeks and felt pity for them. She asked, "Little friends, why are you selling salted fish here in such a cold weather?"

When Mingxu heard this voice, he immediately felt that there was something going on. He raised his head immediately and replied in a childish voice: "Auntie, our family is poor, so we all come out to work. We also come out to sell some things to supplement the family income. Auntie, please try it, it's really delicious." As he said that, Mingxu handed a piece of salted fish to the middle-aged woman.

"It's delicious, very delicious~" Xiaoxin kept agreeing with Mingxu's words. Seeing the two children like this, the middle-aged woman softened her heart. She took the salted fish from their hands and tasted it. It tasted really good. She believed that it would taste even better after cooking.

In addition, the middle-aged woman was moved by Mingxu's words. Such a young child came out to work hard for a living. After hesitating for a while, she looked at the salted fish in their basket and decided to buy some to take home. She took out her wallet, gave Mingxu some money, and took a few salted fish.

"Great, we finally sold some." Mingxu nodded, then looked at Xiaoxin and said, "Xiaoxin, let's sell them separately. No matter how the sales are, let's gather at the corner over there." Mingxu said, pointing to the street corner.

"Okay~" Xiaoxin nodded, and then the two of them began to sell salted fish to passers-by, but most people still looked disgusted. Some people actually wanted to buy it, but the salted fish smelled too strong, and they lived in an apartment, and eating this thing would be complained by neighbors, so they had to give up with regret.

"It's okay, we can roast it for you so you don't have to eat it indoors. The smell won't spread to the neighbors." Mingxu saw their concerns and said immediately.

However, Mingxu was a little dumbfounded when he looked at the people in front of him. They seemed to be Mr. Yoshinaga and Mr. Kawaguchi? Are they dating? Mingxu suddenly felt that Mr. Ishizaka's forehead was a little green...

"Xiao Xin, Xiao Xin, come quickly, come and help." However, his own situation was more important at the moment. Seeing that the two did not object, Mingxu hurriedly called Xiao Xin back. The two worked together to grill salted fish on the street. A smell immediately spread out. Teacher Yoshinaga smelled the smell and said intoxicatedly: "This is the smell, it's great... um, I mean, it's more authentic."

"Well, it's really good." Mr. Kawaguchi nodded.

Soon the two salted fish were grilled and handed to Teacher Yoshinaga and the others. They took them happily, paid the money, and left happily.

They soon attracted a lot of people to the roadside. Most of them were people who could not grill salted fish at home and disliked the strong smell, so when they saw such a small stall, they all gathered around. Mingxu and Xiaoxin were very busy. The salted fish in their baskets were soon almost consumed. After seeing off the last customer, only three salted fish were left in Xiaoxin's basket.

"Xiaoxu, I'm so hungry." Xiaoxin touched his stomach and looked at Mingxu pitifully.

"There are still three salted fish. Let's grill them. There's no food for sale at this time." Mingxu looked at the few people around and said helplessly. He made some money tonight, but he couldn't spend it if no one opened the store.

The two continued to grill salted fish to fill their stomachs. The smoke rose again. Mingxu was no longer moved when he smelled the smell.

It's really tasty...

"This smell really reminds me of my dead father's socks." Xiaoxin couldn't help but say when he smelled the smell again.

Then Mingxu saw two figures appearing in the smoke, they were Meisai and Hiroshi.

"Ah? The little boy selling salted fish?" Mingxu looked at this scene and immediately remembered the story of the little match girl.

Guangzhi's face looked through the smoke at Xiaoxin and shouted: "When did I die!"

"..." It really appeared. Mingxu felt helpless. These three salted fish might not be enough to share.

As expected, Guangzhi shouted and picked up the almost grilled salted fish, divided it into four portions, and everyone ate some.

"It's delicious." Hiroshi and Misaya said intoxicatedly while eating the salted fish.

"Wow, come to think of it, I was just thinking about my parents while grilling salted fish, and you guys suddenly appeared." Xiaoxin couldn't help but say as he looked at the two of them.

"Huh?" Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin. This kind of thing just happened?

"Really?" Guangzhi was a little confused.

"Well, then, you should think of something delicious." Meiya immediately put a salted fish on the stove and started roasting. Smoke soon came out.

"Delicious food, delicious food..." As Xiaoxin imagined, a pile of salted fish suddenly appeared in the smoke, and then turned into solid objects and fell to the ground.

"...The delicious food you were thinking of is salted fish?" Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin in confusion. He didn't understand, but was greatly shocked.

"Alas, the things we thought were good in our hearts turned out to be just salted fish..." Guangzhi couldn't help but burst into tears, and suddenly felt so sad.

"Oh, there's nothing I can do. I really haven't seen the world." Mei Ya sighed.

"There's still one in the basket, Xiaoxu. I'll give you the last chance." Then, when the salted fish carrying the family's last dream was roasted on the smoke, Mingxu clasped his hands and muttered as the smoke slowly rose. He began to imagine in his mind: "A warm house with lots of delicious food."

As the fantasy began, a house slowly appeared in the smoke, and then the small house appeared in a vacant spot on the corner of the street.

"Wow, the house belongs to us!" The four of them ran in excitedly. The moment the house appeared, some property rights of the house and the keys also appeared in their hands.

It’s so nice to stay in a warm house on a snowy day with some delicious food stored inside!

Moreover, the front of the house can be used as a store, so they don’t have to run around selling salted fish and can conduct business here.

At night, the four of them slowly fell asleep. When they opened their eyes again, Mingxu found that he had returned to his original home. He breathed a sigh of relief. If it hadn't been for this adventure, the ending would have been hard to predict.

Mingxu went out for exercise and took Xiaobai for a walk, but he didn't notice a strange cloud floating by in the sky.
