I am beautiful enough

On New Year's Eve, Chen Jianmin took Shiyu to the county early as usual, but today he was not going to open a shop, but to buy new year's goods.

Shi Yu felt that he had woken up early enough, but when they arrived in the county, the butcher stalls in the supply and marketing cooperative had already closed.

Fortunately, Chen Jianmin had already inquired about it a long time ago, so he led Shiyu directly to the first-hand store. The three-story house stood in the middle of a small bungalow, and many people had already been persuaded to leave.

Neither Shiyu nor the original owner in memory had visited this kind of shopping mall, so after Shiyu entered, he looked around very curiously for a while.

The clerks at the counters just glanced up at them before going about their business, some without even looking up, not at all concerned about whether the items would sell.

It was also the first time for Chen Jianmin to come here. He had only heard people say how good the products sold in this mall were and how expensive they were. He touched his pockets, worried whether he had enough money.

Shi Yu looked around, and his curiosity stopped a little. No matter how new things are, they are old antiques in other places, but at the non-staple food counter, he saw a few snacks that have been discontinued in later generations.

"What does the fish want to eat?" Chen Jianmin noticed Shi Yu's gaze, and also looked into the non-staple food counter.

Several small cream cakes occupied the entire glass cabinet, and there was a special light on it, and even the paper cups containing the small cakes looked like paintings.

Chen Jianmin was about to ask the salesperson to buy one, when Shi Yu swiped his finger and pointed to the fruit candy and milk candy in a plastic bag next to him.

"Sister, how do you sell this candy?" Shi Yu looked like a well-raised child, and the salesperson stopped working when he saw that the business was coming.

"Fruit candy is one yuan a catty, and milk candy is one yuan and five." This kind of high-end candy does not require sugar tickets, and the price has also risen. Only their shopping malls buy them in bags, and other supply and marketing cooperatives are afraid of selling them. stay home.

Shiyu has been doing business with Chen Jianmin this month, and the dime and cents of the income are all calculated from his hands. He was still trying to figure out how long it would take Chen Jianmin to cook, when he remembered the voice next to him. up.

"Comrade, we want two catties of fruit candies, one catty of toffee, and two tubes of melon seeds." Chen Jianmin estimated the prices here and the prices of the supply and marketing cooperatives in their brigade. .

When Shi Yu watched Chen Jianmin take out the handful of ten-cent bills, his heart bled. Even if Chen Jianmin's cooking hands were not sore, his massaging hands were also tired.

The little temper in my heart was still raging, and a milk candy was stuffed into my mouth.

Chen Jianmin saw Shiyu's pouting mouth when he heard the price, and he knew that Shiyu was trying to save money for him, and he was ironing the post in his heart, while thinking about buying it for Shiyu again.I want to be nice to him, and I also want to see him pouting in anger.

Shi Yu took the back molars and chewed the milk candy fiercely. He had already eaten it. What else could he do? Of course he chose to forgive him. Anyway, after thinking about it, the candy probably ended up in his own mouth of.

But Shiyu didn't expect that these candies were just the prelude to today. Chen Jianmin seemed to have activated some strange mechanism. Shiyu had to wear a scarf for a try, and a pair of gloves had to be prepared in winter. At the front, Shiyu finally refused aloud.

"Uncle, I'm only in junior high school, and a pencil is enough. Buy me a pen. If I don't do well in the book, people will laugh at me."

"Yu'er is smart, so he must be able to read well." Chen Jianmin smiled, but after all, he bought a dozen pencils and an eraser.

The salesperson saw that they bought a lot, and gave them a small pencil sharpener.

Shi Yu thanked him and took it, not daring to let Chen Jianmin stay here any longer. In just a short while, all the money he earned in half a month was spent.

Just as he was about to drag him away, Chen Jianmin stopped in front of a plastic model again.

That lake blue shirt is really nice, as it can be seen from the fact that it is obviously out of season but it has the exclusive treatment of a plastic model.

The cloth-like silk fabric seemed to flow under the light, and Chen Jianmin couldn't help but wanted to touch the clothes, but was stopped by the salesperson.

"Hey, this is a new style from Shuicheng this year, and it's the only one in the whole county. If it's damaged, will you pay the nine yuan?"

Shiyu did the math quickly this time, nine yuan is nine catties of fruit candy, six catties of milk candy, and 180 tubes of melon seeds! ! !This is enough for him to drink forever.

Hurry up and want to drag Chen Jianmin away, and if you are laughed at by the salesperson, just laugh at them, they are so real that they are poor.

"This dress looks good on you." Chen Jianmin looked into Shi Yu's eyes seriously, and there was a message in his eyes that he wanted to buy it.

When Shi Yuxin said that I was good-looking, how could I not know?

Then I heard Chen Jianmin say again: "I want to buy it for you."

"..." What else can Shiyu say?

As a direct result of buying this dress, Shiyu ordered two jelly noodles and one sesame seed cake for lunch.

You don't feel sorry for your money anymore, so why should I feel sorry for you.

After eating this [-] cents lunch, I still felt that the fish was not enough. In the winter, I bought another popsicle, and I even bought the most expensive milk popsicle, which cost six cents a piece. .

Chen Jianmin smiled and followed him to pay, watching him bite the popsicle with his mouth bulging.

When the popsicles are finished eating, Shi Yu doesn't feel bad for the money anymore, because his stomach hurts now.

--------------

On the night of New Year's Eve, the children in the village were completely wild, chasing and playing, and the New Year's money in their pockets turned into firecrackers, spreading the taste of the New Year to every household.

Shi Yu was lying on the bed, but he didn't feel lonely at all. In the brightly lit room, a pair of big hands warmed up by rubbing were soothing his uncomfortable stomach.

"Uncle (Yu'er), Happy New Year."

The sound of dense firecrackers sent blessings to the sky.
