I really don't want to be a teacher

Next to him, the child's mother also turned her head and looked at her child with a smile.

"...um... I want lettuce, mom, let's get lettuce."

The child lowered his head, looked at the few vegetables left in the bamboo basket, raised his head again, and said to his mother,

"...Okay, Chenchen wants to eat lettuce, so let's buy lettuce...Uncle Cheng, come and lettuce..."

"……well……"

……

"...Go home, go home and fry lettuce..."

The child was carrying a bag containing lettuce, and holding his mother with the other hand, and walked home with some joy.

The bag of lettuce in his hand swayed back and forth with the child's movements.

Bent down, the old man stood behind the bamboo basket, watching the child and his mother walk away, his eyes dazed.

Chapter 755

"...Thank you two for listening to my nagging for so long, I will give you some leftover dishes."

The setting sun slanting towards the west was gradually blocked by the nearby buildings on the street, and some afterglow was driven by the shadows of the buildings on the street, receding to the other side of the street.

On the street, under the afterglow and under the shadow of the buildings, pedestrians are becoming less and less,

There are more and more chilly winds in the evening blowing through the streets and alleys from time to time, disturbing the streets. There are still lanterns hanging in front of the shops, and banners for the Spring Festival activities.

The few pedestrians who passed by were also wearing tight clothes under the cold wind, and quickened their pace.

Standing by the side of the street, the old man bent his waist, trembling slightly, raised his head, watching the mother and child walking away,

After standing still, he slowly turned around, looked at Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying and said aloud.

"Then thank you, old man."

Lian Ge looked at the old man, thanked him,

The old man shook his head, stretched out his hand and tore a plastic bag from the bamboo basket, shook it, then squatted down slowly,

"...This ladle is white, it can be used for vegetarian frying, or you can put some lard residue...This lettuce, cut into slices, add some salt, then squeeze the water, rinse with water, the stir-fried meat is delicious..."

The old man held a plastic bag in one hand and picked up some leftover vegetables in the bamboo basket with the other, muttering,

Next to him, Gu Xiaoying squatted down and wanted to help, watching the old man's movements, listening to the old man's words, he stopped his movements,

Crouching down, Lian Ge looked at the old man, and quietly listened to what the old man said.

"...This white radish can be used to stew soup. Add some pork bones and simmer for a longer time. It tastes fresh... The spinach is gone, and the spinach can also be fried... You can also cook two when eating noodles. Seeing that this town is not far away, old Xu from Heyuan Village, old man Xu, likes to eat like this..."

"...There is also this lotus white, which is used to stir-fry meat, or stir-fry vegetables. When the stir-fry is done, add some garlic, pour mature vinegar, put a little salt and sugar... not far from here, that Qiu The old man likes to buy..."

"...the cabbage is gone..."

While talking, the old man looked at the empty bamboo basket, paused,

"...my old wife used to like to eat it when she was still alive. I had to grow some every year, sell some, and keep the rest for her. Cut some peppers, chop some garlic, mix with lard residue, and add a little salt... ..."

While talking, the old man gradually stopped talking, paused, stretched out his hand again, and then picked up the remaining vegetables into the bag.

"...I won't give you the rest of this."

There were only some green beans in the bag left in the bamboo basket, the old man stopped again, looking at the bag of green beans, his eyes were a little dazed, and then he smiled again,

"...The green beans are for my baby, he likes to eat them."

Looking at the green beans left in the bamboo basket, the old man said again with a smile on his face.

Holding the remaining vegetables in the bag, the old man stood up again,

"……Give."

Carrying the bag with some vegetables, the old man handed it to Lian Ge,

"Thank you, old man."

Reaching out to take it, Lian Ge thanked again,

The old man smiled and shook his head, leaned back, raised his head, and looked along the street.

"...boy, girl. I'm leaving first, I have to deliver food to my baby. I just called me yesterday and said that I want to eat green beans. There are not many green beans in the field... I'll go first..."

……

The old man turned around slowly, bent his back, stretched out his hand, and picked up the shoulder pole that was placed on the street.

Passing the pole through the handles of the two bamboo baskets, the old man squatted down a little more and put the pole on his shoulders.

Standing up again, the old man hunched over, carried a bamboo basket, slowly moved his feet, and then walked towards the distance along the street.

On both ends of the shoulder pole, in the bamboo baskets decorated with flowers, there are the changed clothes and the scale next to the clothes, and the bag of green beans is placed at the other end.

Following the pace of the old man, it swayed slightly.

……

"...Old Cheng, I went back from selling vegetables, do you have any leftover vegetables?"

"...Sold out, sold out..."

With the cold wind blowing through the street, the voice of the resounding voice faded away,

Lian Ge looked at the old man who was hunched over, carrying a bamboo basket, walking away, raised his hand, and waved towards the old man.

Immediately afterwards, the old man's staggering steps seemed to be a little lighter.

After taking the food, you always have to pay for the order.

Watching the old man walk away, Lian Ge turned his gaze back to Gu Xiaoying who was also looking at the old man beside him.

"Let's go, the groceries are ready, we should go home."

Smiling slightly, Lian Ge spoke again to Gu Xiaoying.

"...Well... Go back and help me chop the vegetables."

Along the street, Gu Xiaoying held Lian Ge on his arm, Lian Ge took Gu Xiaoying with him, and the two of them walked home with some vegetables in their hands.

……

"...Lian Ge, that old man..."

"Remember when I took you to the county hospital to see that patient?"

"Um……"

"His soul is struggling very hard in his body."

The two walked along the road, gradually heading home, the cold wind blowing through was mixed with some voices,

"That……"

"He said it just now. He agreed, and he has to deliver food to people, and he has to deliver food to his son."

……

"...Boom boom boom..."

"...Dad, you're here."

The old man is carrying a pole with bamboo baskets on both ends of the pole.

With a hunched waist, he walked down another street, turned a few roads, and walked into a community, in front of a house,

Bending his back, he lowered the bamboo basket he was carrying, and stood up again. The old man knocked on the door with his hand outstretched.

It was a woman who opened the door, and when she saw it was an old man, she greeted her with a smile, and stepped aside a bit,

"...Dad, sit down first, I'll get you a glass of water...Dad, what's wrong with you..."

Get out of the way, wait for the old man to enter the house, the woman is going to pour water, followed by seeing the muddy water on the old man's pants and shoes, and then asked aloud,

"...It's okay, it's okay..."

Putting down the pole, the old man stacked up two bamboo baskets, held the bag of green beans in his hand, and walked into the house.

He waved his hand, said aloud, then turned his head again, looked into the living room,

"To be honest with him..."

"Weicheng is still at work. I called just now and will be back soon...Dad, let me get you a pair of Weicheng's pants and put them on. It's so cold, don't get cold."

"No need, no need..."

The woman said that she was about to go into the bedroom, but the old man called out to the woman, then turned his head and looked at the kitchen next to the living room,

"Are you cooking?"

"...Yes, Dad, you can stay and eat tonight."

"...I'll cook dinner tonight."

The old man bowed his waist, looked into the kitchen, and said aloud,

"Dad, come here, how can I let you cook, just sit and rest, and I'll get you a glass of water."

"Let me cook..."

The old man repeated the sentence aloud, lifted the bag of green beans in his hand, and looked again.

……

"...Dad, you are here, why are you busy in the kitchen?"

"...I'm back. Dad wants to cook you another meal. Sit down first, and you'll be fine soon."

"...The food is here, let's eat."

Holding a plate of fried string beans, the old man came out of the kitchen,

Smiling and yelling, the old man put the hot kidney beans on the plate on the dining table.

"Dad, sit down too."

"……well……"

Smiling, looking at his son, the old man also sat down at the dining table.

The family sat around and had a meal.

Chapter 756

"... Lian Ge, do you want to wait for the meal to be ready and ask the second uncle and great uncle to come over for dinner. We have eaten several meals at the second uncle's house."

"Okay. But wait until tomorrow."

"……Um?"

"The village eats earlier, and dinner should have been eaten by this time."

"Okay then, let's cook early tomorrow."

The setting sun has sunk into the horizon, leaving only some afterglow still reflecting the horizon.

Along the road, Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying passed the entrance of the village and walked towards the old house.

The two of them talked casually along the way, and from time to time they met some villagers who passed by on the village road or had dinner by the yard.

"...Xiaoge, come back from outside?"

"Correct."

"...Xiaoge, have you eaten yet? Why don't you eat in the house, the meal is just right."

"No, thank you, I've already bought the food."

"...Xiaoge, are you going to the street with your girlfriend?"

Breeze blows across the village road from time to time, mixed with the greetings of villagers along the way.
