Zhengyangmen: Don’t date Su Meng
Chapter 214 Buying Popcorn
At this time, Han Chunming was completely unaware of what was happening in the house. When he saw Han Chunsong coming out of the house to collect firewood, he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
Out of politeness, he casually asked, "Do you need my help?"
However, Han Chunsong waved his hand without hesitation to refuse.
After all, this task was specifically entrusted to him by Han's mother. If he dared to hand it over to someone else, he would surely be faced with another more arduous and tiring task.
Seeing this, Han Chunming turned his attention back to the work in his hands and continued to post the couplets with concentration.
Posting the Spring Festival couplets at the gate of this compound has always been the responsibility of each family in turn, and this year it is the Han family's turn.
So, Han Chunming led the four little guys out of the courtyard and raised his hand to signal them to step back. This time he had to do it himself!
He first stomped lightly on the stool under his feet to make sure the ground was flat and not wobbling before he stepped on it carefully.
Then, he began to instruct the four little guys: "Hurry up and hand me the couplets, and bring the glue as well. Let's finish the most difficult horizontal scroll first!"
After everything was ready, Han Chunming scooped a lot of paste with a wooden brush, applied it vigorously to the back of the couplet, and asked, "Look, is it pasted crookedly?" As he spoke, he raised his arms high and carefully compared the height of the left and right sides.
The four little guys behind him immediately exploded and shouted:
"The left side is too high!"
"No, no, I think the right side is higher."
"You two are both wrong. In fact, it's too low. It should be moved up a bit."
"..."
For a moment, all kinds of noises came one after another, making it very lively.
It really is true that there are a thousand and one Hamlets in a thousand people.
"Stop, stop yelling, Boss, tell me, is it crooked?"
In the end, it was Han Chunming who made the final decision and let the boss take control of the situation.
In this way, the horizontal banner was finally pasted on the wall.
Immediately afterwards, Han Chunming could no longer suppress his inner urgency, and hurriedly jumped off the stool, stepped back a few steps, and after carefully examining it, he raised his thumbs high and praised:
"Very good! After all, our boss is really good at it. From now on, the proofreading work will be fully handed over to you."
The rest of the little guys looked at their eldest brother with jealousy on their faces, feeling indignant in their hearts.
However, Han Chunming ignored the little thoughts of these children, and continued to post the couplets with quick hands and feet.
Before long, all the couplets had been posted.
…………
At this moment, I suddenly saw a child walking slowly past the door with a big bag of popcorn in his arms.
Seeing this, Han Chunming immediately shouted, "Hey! Little guy, where did you buy this popcorn?"
After all, they all lived in the same alley, so the child naturally recognized Han Chunming.
He replied crisply, "Uncle Chunming, it's just outside the alley. There are a lot of people queuing there. If you want to eat some, I... I can give you two."
You know, in this day and age, children have very few snacks.
The reason why he was able to say this was obviously because he had made a great determination.
All this was due to Han Chunming's generosity. Whenever he met these naughty kids, he would always give them some benefits. Otherwise, how could the kid willingly give up his beloved popcorn?
Han Chunming looked at the little guy in front of him with a look of heartache on his face and couldn't help but find it a little funny.
He reached out and gently pinched the other's chubby cheek, then waved his hand casually and said, "No need, I'll buy it myself later, you can go home quickly.
Oh, by the way, I'll give you two candies to try."
Then he took out two candies from his pocket and handed them over. The little boy took them with great joy, bowed respectfully to express his gratitude, and then left with a hop and a sway.
Looking at the receding figure, Han Chunming couldn't help but sigh: "What a sensible and good child!"
Then he told the eldest brother to send the remaining paste back to the Han family, while he led the other three kids straight to the entrance of the alley.
Sure enough, a long line could be seen from a distance.
Coincidentally, Su Meng was third in line. When she caught a glimpse of Han Chunming and the others, she was stunned for a moment, and then quickly waved for them to come over.
Han Chunming thought for a moment, and finally stepped forward and greeted her with a bright smile on his face.
"Are you here to buy popcorn too?" Su Meng asked curiously.
Han Chunming smiled and nodded, then pointed to the queue behind him and said, "Yes, but judging from the situation, there are so many people here today."
"How about I buy it for you?" Su Meng suggested tentatively.
Han Chunming waved his hands and refused: "No, I can't trouble you. Besides, everyone is queuing up. If I cut in line, I don't know what everyone will think of me.
I won’t say any more. I’ll go queue up at the back.”
This scene reminded Su Meng of the time when he registered for university. At that time, he also adhered to his own queuing principle. Su Meng had no choice but to nod in agreement, and turned his eyes away from him, staring at his shoes, but his heart was full of thoughts and mixed feelings.
Han Chunming came to the end of the line and carefully sorted the clothes for the three children. Then he chatted with people he knew while waiting.
Not long after, Su Meng came in with a full bag of popcorn, exchanged a few simple words with Han Chunming, and then left in a hurry.
Just at this moment, a sound suddenly came from behind.
"Chunming, do you know that Su Meng is dating someone?"
Without looking back, Han Chunming could conclude that the person behind him was undoubtedly Cheng Jianjun.
"I don't know." He answered frankly.
"I guess you don't know either. The two of them have done a perfect job of keeping the secret. If I hadn't happened to see it last time, I'm afraid Su Meng wouldn't have told the truth."
Cheng Jianjun had a smug smile on his face, and he told Han Chunming everything about the time he had encountered Su Meng talking to a man in the alley.
It turned out that the matter was very simple. Su Meng was talking to a man in the alley a few days ago and was caught by Xu Damao. Su Meng could only introduce the two to each other and said, "This is my boyfriend." Then Cheng Jianjun almost lost control of himself.
Everyone they met told Su Meng that she was in love. The news spread not only in the compound but also in the alley.
