Breeding Mermaid Cubs

"I also said to come to have a sip of tea, Mr. Lang. Seeing that I am so busy, I can only come and pour tea for Mr. Lang."

Zhou Zhu was selling tofu on the street today, thinking that he met Wang Qingye yesterday, so he stopped by to visit his stall on Dadong Street, and saw a small stall full of people from a distance, the leader of the queue followed him. Dragon Boat Festival is like a dragon, he still wonders which stall has such a prosperous business, and when he gets closer, it turns out that it is Wang Qingye's family.

Wang Qingye laughed, "But I'm sorry to trouble you."

"What are you talking about?" Zhou Zhu tidied up the cleaned plates: "The guests on the table are waiting impatiently, so I'll take the shrimp with him."

Wang Qingye pointed to the big basin in front of the stall: "All the shrimps are here. There are twelve pieces in one serving, just now to make customers wait, so add two more."

Zhou Zhu pretended to be a shrimp with a smile: "No wonder there are so many customers, after all, Mr. Lang is really doing business."

Pei Daqian was squeezed to the side, and now Zhou Zhu was helping him at the stall, so he moved a lot faster, and the line became shorter all of a sudden, and the customers couldn't get over no matter what, so he had to go back to the stall with a sad face , which made the stall owner, who had been aggrieved before, smile secretly.

"Lang Jun, is there any tea for sale?"

"Unfortunately, there is no tea prepared today, do you want warm water?"

The diner waved his hand: "I just want to have some tea and drink this sushi, it's tasteless with warm water."

Wang Qingye looked up and saw that there was a tea stand next to the pancake stand, and said loudly: "Tea stall owner, there is a table of diners here who want some tea, would you like to bring some?"

The tea stall peddler had no business at first, but he didn’t expect that there would be someone yelling to deliver the business to him, so he quickly got up from the bench: “Okay, okay! Here we come!”

After a while, a pot of fragrant tea was brought over, along with cups. The diners were satisfied and gave the vendor some money.

The Pei family's mother and son were furious: "Mother, I have to call uncle to drive this kid out."

.........

It was just over two hours, and the food stalls were sold out again. There were more diners who didn’t buy anything today than yesterday, and they were refusing to leave Wang Qingye’s stall, saying they wanted to order some sushi for tomorrow. I came to buy it early in the morning, but I didn't expect to get the answer that it might not be sold tomorrow. Everyone complained a lot, but there was no way.

After the people dispersed, it was already noon, and the sky was dreary. I'm afraid it will rain tomorrow.

Wang Qingye ordered a pot of tea from the stall next door, took out a plate of shrimp and a plate of sushi from the stall, and sat down at the table with Zhou Zhu: "I asked you to come and drink tea, but I asked you to follow along with the work." For a while."

"Isn't the food at the stall sold out long ago, how can there be more?"

Wang Qingye handed the chopsticks to Zhou Zhu: "The ones are specially reserved to entertain you, so the business can still be done tomorrow."

Zhou Zhu laughed loudly: "Wang Langjun, you are so interesting. The diners are clamoring to buy it. You said it's sold out. It's a good day, and you even secretly left some to entertain guests."

Wang Qingye narrowed his eyebrows and smiled, he was eating enough for one person and then feeding a fish for the whole family. Naturally, doing business is much more carefree than those who support their families: "Try it quickly."

"Who would have thought that this exquisite food was bought at a street stall, it is sweet and fragrant." Zhou Zhu took half a mouthful, and it was no problem to take one bite at a time. The food is really delicious, so you have to savor it carefully Fan.Wang Qingye was also generous, he insisted on setting aside six things for four fen a piece to treat him: "If my mother can taste one bite, she will be very happy, she loves pickled cucumbers the most."

Wang Qingye got up and went to look for oil paper: "Bring some home for my aunt, I don't have much left today, so go to my house to make more and take home."

Zhou Zhu was flattered, put down his chopsticks and hurriedly stood up: "How to make it."

"If there's anything you can't do, they are all acquaintances."

Thinking of taking some home for his mother, Zhou Zhu didn't move his chopsticks after eating a piece of sushi. The two of them peeled the shrimp and dipped them in vinegar, which was quite a treat.

"Hey, why haven't I seen my little brother today?"

Wang Qingye said: "He is lazy and rarely goes out on weekdays."

Zhou Zhu nodded: "I see that my little brother is just like Mr. Lang. He looks good, but he is young and his legs and feet are inconvenient. Mr. Lang should not let him go out these days."

Wang Qingye didn't understand what Zhou Zhu meant: "What's wrong?"

"Our Xiacheng has been a bit uneasy recently, and some traffickers have sneaked in. Not long ago, we lost a girl in the archway alley. That little girl was the most graceful one in our alley, and she was abducted by gangsters outside."

Wang Qingye was a little shocked: "Didn't report to the official?"

"I reported it, why didn't I report it!" Zhou Zhu sighed: "That family only betrothed the girl two months earlier, and they accepted the bride price for a large family in the city. Now that the person is lost, both sides are anxious , not only reported to the official, but also sent people to look for them at both ends. Unfortunately, these three or four days have passed, but no one has been found. Those thieves are rampant, and Xiaobei Alley has lost two little brothers one after another. age."

Wang Qingye put down the shrimp in his hand: "Abducted a beautiful girl and some people said that what abducted a ten-year-old brother is already remembered, and it is easy to sell?"

Zhou Zhu said again: "Your Majesty doesn't know the preferences of those rich and powerful families. They like to privately buy beautiful young men for pleasure. Our Xiacheng is a small place, so it is not common. If you come to the capital, it will be called blooming everywhere. It is said that A good-looking boy is worth more than a girl."

Wang Qingye's eyebrows twitched, and he took a breath: "You still know a lot."

"I'm just being curious. I'm telling you this morning. Take care of my little brother just to prevent it."

"It makes sense." Wang Qingye refilled a cup of tea for Zhou Zhu: "Drink tea."

.........

When Mian Shu woke up, it was already under the sun, and the sunlight fell into the bathtub through the window, and the scales shone brightly.

He got up from the bathtub, and as expected, Wang Qingye had already gone out, and he caught a fish to make a tooth sacrifice. He was used to Wang Qingye's cooking, and he couldn't taste anything good about raw fish except for its umami taste. Here comes the taste.

Seeing that winter was about to enter, he began to be lazy. A little fish cub who was not very hardworking, became even more lazy after winter, closing his eyes and wanting to sleep.

After eating the fish, he lay on the edge of the bathtub to bask in the sun. The sun in this season is far less scorching than summer, and it warms his body. Mianshu feels a bit like Wang Qingye's bed, which is also so warm , Wang Qingye's quilt is comfortable, but it's a pity that he doesn't let him sleep very much.

After basking in the sun for a while, he suddenly felt a little itchy on his body. He scratched it lightly, and it turned out to be a big red spot, from his arm all the way to his collarbone.He was taken aback. After counting the days, he had been out of the sea for nearly a month. An underage mermaid can't stay out of the sea for too long, even if he has a noble blood, after all, he can't stay on the shore for a long time like an adult mermaid.

He retracted his body into the sea, which temporarily relieved the dry itching on his body, but it was not a long-term solution. He also blamed the life for being too comfortable for a while, eating, drinking, sleeping, and even forgetting important things. After all, he still had to go to the sea for a while. It will take a while!

Now my body is almost in good condition, and I can go back to the sea, but when I think about leaving Wang Qingye, I feel restless in my heart, which makes me more uncomfortable than the dry itching on my body.

If he knew his situation, Wang Qingye would definitely send him back to the sea. That guy has long disliked him for eating too much, getting fat and spending money. I am afraid that he will be happy when he hears that he has to go back to the sea. no more.

He wagged his tail, stepped out of the water, looked at the wheelchair quietly placed in the house, and had a bold idea in his mind.

It was already noon when Wang Qingye came home, and just now when he entered the yard, he saw Xiaoyuzi basking in the sun on a deck chair, with rock sugar on his left and Lao Ganma on his right, who had already finished eating the dried fruit, even so, It doesn't affect his good life.

"How is the business today? How much did you earn?"

"It's okay." Wang Qingye took out the money bag and threw it on the recliner: "You count it."

Mian Shu turned over and got up, unwrapped the elastic rope of the money bag, and poured out a small mountain bag with a splash, he picked out a rope and counted copper coins and threaded them one by one.

"Eighty more than yesterday."

"Although I didn't cook as much food as yesterday, I sold a few more bottles of ingredients."

"I think it's still early today, so why don't you go out for a walk. I'll sleep longer than before in winter, and if I don't go out for a walk during the day, I'll get fatter after a while."

Wang Qingye put down the thing, sat next to Mianshu, and stroked Xiao Yuzi's hair: "What's the matter, you still want to hibernate?"

"I'm still young, so it's not strange to hibernate."

Wang Qingye looked down at the little fish cub's particularly beautiful tail in the sun, it was about to grow, and the scales that fell off before were now almost the same as the original scales, and the whole tail glowed with a cold light.

"Is my tail pretty? Do you want to touch it?"

Mianshu moved his tail and cocked it to Wang Qingye. Seeing that Wang Qingye didn't move, he grabbed his hand and put it on his tail.

The tail is cool and very slippery, but it is not sticky and slippery like ordinary fish, but a cool and comfortable touch. It has to be said that Wang Qingye was indeed pleased.

"Okay, let's take you out and put on your clothes by yourself."

Mian Shu is sitting in a wheelchair, and now Wang Qingye is pushing her, so she doesn't need to move the wheel, so she feels more at ease.

In broad daylight, Wang Qingye met a lot of neighbors along the way, asking about Mianshu's situation one after another, Wang Qingye's mouth was almost dry, and after finally getting rid of the neighbors, Mianshu started nagging again.

"Where did you bring me back from?"

"Stupid? Of course it's from the sea."

"Then I haven't even seen the sea."

"The sea is in the other direction of entering the city. If you look for the main road, you will arrive there in about half an hour." Wang Qingye said, "Why do you suddenly ask about this today?"

"It's nothing. Didn't I see Zhang Wubo next door often deliver seafood to our family? It turns out that Hailixia City is still so far away, no wonder he is late every time he comes to deliver fish."

Mian Shu asked a lot about the beach, and arrived in the city before he knew it.

Wang Qingye first took the little guy to buy dried fruit, and then walked around. In fact, he hadn't visited Xiacheng at all, and he was quite comfortable pushing Mianshu slowly.

"What shop is that?"

Mian Shu has her eyes fixed on a silver jewelry store, where there are pretty girls and ladies coming and going, but there are also some young men who come and go.

Wang Qingye's eyebrows twitched, he didn't know whether this kid wanted to go in to look at the people or the silver jewelry, if he wanted to look at the silver jewelry, the silver bars were not as good-looking as his own tail, so what's the point.

"You don't like jewelry sellers."

"How do you know I don't like it? It's okay to go in and have a look."

"If I like it, I won't buy it for you."

The two of them entered the shop in a half-noisy, half-battled manner. Rather than saying it was a silver jewelry shop, it was better to say it was a treasure house. It contained far more than just silver jewelry, and there were many things, such as the folding fans that Miss Gongzi liked, and the oil-paper umbrellas with calligraphy and paintings on them. , Exquisite sachet embroidered flowers, really everything you need.

Mian Shu scratched the counter, looking at a box of small white round beads inside.

Wang Qingye turned his head to look: "It's a pearl, do you like it? Do you want to buy some?"

Mian Shu shook his head, he didn't even like pearls of this quality to put on his tail, but he thinks Wang Qingye should like it quite a bit, before he just watched his tears turn into pearls, it's not difficult, but in the future Just go back to the sea and bring him some.

Wang Qingye saw Xiao Yuzi's disgusted face, and immediately dismissed the idea. Then he saw two silver bells hanging on the shelf. It is a koi.

He took off his comfortable wrist, and the red string and silver bell against the fair skin looked very beautiful: "You should be fine with this."

Mian Shu took the bell and shook it, and it kept ringing endlessly.

"Boss, wrap this up."

After leaving the shop, Mian Shu shook the bell: "It's not that you said you don't want to buy anything, why are you still buying this?"

"I heard that silver ornaments can calm the internal organs, so you can rest your mind." Wang Qingye turned his head to look at Mianshu: "The main reason is that many people will buy this for children."
