Joy

You Qin brought out an apple, the shop owner was very enthusiastic, helped him wash and peeled it, handed it to You Qin and said: "That sausage shop has been open for more than ten or twenty years, and everyone around used to come here Buy here, especially during the Chinese New Year, when the line has to be lined up on Dongmen Street, online shopping has become popular in the past two years, and fewer people buy it, but those who like this will still come to book in advance.”

You Qin took a mouthful of the apple, chewed it, swallowed it, and smiled with his brows and eyes crooked, saying, "I was watching the news..."

He intentionally didn't finish his sentence, and the owner of the fruit shop immediately slapped his thigh: "Oh, that has nothing to do with Xi Le, it's all due to his prodigal aunt!"

The old guest next to him probably knew about this, and he leaned over and said, "Xi Le is a good boy, he never lacks in weight, and his cooking tastes as good as his father's and his grandfather's. Although this kid... It was also caused by his aunt. Poor Xi Le, now that something happened, his grandmother actually blamed it on his grandson, so he shouldn't be punished."

"Punishment?" You Qin gnawed the apples in two or three bites, and thought the taste was good, so he bought another two catties.

The owner of the store also opened up the chatter box, and said angrily: "Wearing women's clothes, Xi Le looks pretty good, that old woman is so cruel to people. Why do you say that the old customers are not coming, let him dress up better and attract more customers."

The regular customers who bought fruit were also angry: "This is a shop that sells sausages, not those messy things in the red light district. I really don't know what the old woman thinks all day long!"

"The old man blames Xi Le. He feels that he has committed crimes against his relatives." The boss tsk-tsk, "Parents died, grandpa died, and grandparents left early."

"What does that have to do with him?" the old customer said, "A car accident destroyed two families. Xi Le's grandparents were not in good health and couldn't bear the blow of his son's death. thing."

"His grandfather had heart disease, and it was discovered at a young age, so he didn't live long."

The shop owner and the customer chatted more and more vigorously, but forgot about the existence of You Qin. You Qin frowned and listened for a while, and then said in his heart: I used to think that this kind of thing can only be seen in novels and news, but this time I actually saw reality version.

Even though the days couldn't be worse in the eyes of others, the young shopkeeper in women's attire in front of the chopping board didn't seem to be affected.He has no expression on his face, and does things swiftly. When a guest comes to ask, he will raise a little smile and answer sincerely and slowly.

Youqin didn't know why, but felt that compared with the noisy vegetable market environment around him, the young shopkeeper had a very quiet and harmonious aura around him - he was dressed strangely, but his demeanor was very peaceful, as if time stood still around him.Looking at it, it actually makes people calm down physically and mentally, no longer impetuous, and feels comfortable for no reason.

You Qin carried the apple and walked over slowly. He just stopped at the door of the store when the young "crazy" shopkeeper looked up. His black and white eyes were brighter than You Qin had ever seen before, as if he could Go straight to the depths of people's souls, and see the most beautiful and purest human nature on that side.

Even the young man was almost in a mess at the moment—the wig was askew, he was wearing sleeves and gloves, and one of the suspenders of the long skirt slumped under his shoulders.But his smile is enough to make people ignore all this.

"Hello." The other party said slowly, putting down the pork knife in his hand, "I want to buy something, what?"

Not through the TV, but directly hearing the other party's voice, You Qin realized that the other party's voice was actually very nice, with a clear and clear voice, like a mirror of the sky at the end of the world, clear and clear without any impurities.

You Qin paused, and then said: "I want to inquire about someone."

The young man blinked, showing a slightly dazed look: "Who?"

"A man surnamed Lu." You Qin said his name, in order not to make the other party nervous, he put his voice very softly, with a friendly smile.

It's just that the other party was still nervous, and he grabbed the log handle of the pork knife in a daze, and the muscles on his forearm tensed.You Qin took a step back calmly, for fear that the other party would suddenly get violent and really stab him.

"I, I..." The other party stammered, "I'll ask, I'll ask grandma."

As he spoke, he was about to turn around and leave. You Qin hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's not a very important matter. If you don't know, you don't know. I want to buy some sausages, can I?"

The young man looked at Youqin in a daze, then at the knife in his hand, seemed a little embarrassed, nodded: "Yes, yes."

"Do you want to decide by yourself, or buy it ready-made?" The other party jumped out word by word, speaking at a very even speed, not in a hurry, but it didn't make people feel uncomfortable.

With one hand in his pocket, You Qin walked around the store and asked, "Is there anything special about it?"

The young man said: "You decide, you can choose your own meat and seasoning."

You Qin understood: "The ready-made ones are made by you, and the taste has already been set?"

The other party nodded: "Yes."

"Just buy ready-made." You Qin said with a smile, "I heard that your secret ancestral taste is delicious."

The young man blushed, even to the tips of his ears, but his eyes were bright, obviously very happy.

"Thank you." He bowed seriously to Youqin, and then he was busy choosing sausages.

You Qin looked at the man's busy back for a while, and could easily feel the other's mood swings.Probably because he was really happy, the actions of the other party seemed very energetic, which also infected Youqin.

With a smile on his lips all the time, You Qin asked casually, "How many years have you been making sausages?"

The man answered quickly, his voice raised slightly, as if smiling: "Five years."

"It's been a long time." You Qin looked at him, "You are very young, five years ago... how old were you?"

The man took down the dried sausage and turned to ask Youqin how much he wanted: "15 years old, how much do you want, catty?"

"Ten catties." You Qin said, "I'll give it away."

The man nodded, and quickly weighed it, as if there was wind under his feet.

You Qin looked at the other party wandering around in the store, folded his arms and continued to ask: "Are you alone here?"

The man paused this time, and after weighing the weight, he took a red bag and wrapped it up for You Qin, and replied slowly: "There is also, grandma."

The young man was not on guard, and answered whatever the guests asked, always with a smile on his face.

Until then, the man's face flashed a few traces of bewilderment, and his whole body exuded a somewhat sad breath—like a wounded cub, or like a child who couldn't find his way home, a little at a loss, But I don't know how to deal with this feeling.

But very soon, he smiled again, the emotion was only fleeting, and I'm afraid even he himself didn't notice it.

He handed the pocket to Youqin, and said: "If it's heavy, I can help you." As if he was afraid that he might not be able to explain clearly, the man added, "Yes, delivery."

You Qin understood, the other party said that if the weight is too heavy, the store can help deliver it home.

"It's only a few steps away." You Qin reached out to take it and thanked him, "I can do it myself, thank you."

Being thanked, the man's face turned red again, his long eyelashes fluttered, with a little excitement, the low mood just now seemed to be an illusion, he stammered: "No, you're welcome, you, you are so beautiful. "

There seems to be no inevitable logic before and after this, but no one doesn't like to be praised.

You Qin was amused, and yawned: "People often say that, you have a good eye."

The man didn't seem to react, he just smiled sincerely.

When You Qin left the door, the man chased after him and said, "This is, it's from Sichuan."

The man was a little anxious: "I, I forgot to ask..."

You Qin blocked the other party's words, he understood the other party's meaning: "It's okay, I like Sichuan flavor."

The man heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at You Qin gratefully. The cheeky You Qin had cultivated for many years was a little embarrassed to be stared at by the other party. He raised his hand and waved: "Then I'm leaving, goodbye."

The man nodded hurriedly and waved to him: "Goodbye."

It's just that before You Qin walked a few steps away, he heard an earth-shattering voice behind him.

An old lady rushed out with something that she didn't know. Seeing that she was in good health and full of energy, her voice was ridiculously loud, and she yelled over from a long distance——

"Xi Le! Why do you go to the store if you don't look at it! You're a prodigal! The things in the store were stolen and robbed, can you afford it?!"

The old lady ran and scolded all the way, without stopping, "It's not enough to make things worse! Your brains deserve to be eaten by dogs! You don't even visit the store when your aunt is away! You deliberately tortured me." Kill our family, isn't it!"

The young shop owner named Xi Le shrank his shoulders instantly and arched his back. He was much taller than the old man. He bent down, shrunk his shoulders and bowed his head like this, but he failed to shrink himself by a few inches. The old lady ran up to him, Looking up at 175's grandson, he raised the object in his hand and hit it.

You Qin frowned, and then he saw clearly that it was a knife sharpening stick about ten inches long. The old lady probably picked it up in the store, and just hit Xi Le's arm lightly and hard, and immediately A few more pumps on the thigh.

Xi Le lowered her head and did not dare to make a sound, her eyes turned red, she bit her lip and her fingers trembled.

After the old lady got tired after two puffs, he said slowly: "I will deliver, I will deliver, customer. No, I don't look at the store."
