Cultivation in the city

In order to celebrate Duan Xiaolou's return home, Duan's mother made a table full of delicious dishes.

The milky pork rib soup is served in a large porcelain bowl, placed in the middle of the table, next to a plate of brightly colored braised Wuchang fish, a small bowl of braised pork and a small bowl of stewed beef are placed next to the Wuchang fish, next to the pork rib soup The other end is convenient for everyone to pick up.

On the other side of the soup was a neatly arranged plate of boiled prawns, which was right next to where Duan Xiaolou was sitting. This was also Yuanshen's favorite dish.

Next to it, there are several vegetarian dishes such as slippery lotus root slices, dry-stir-fried potato shreds, and stir-fried cabbage.Six dishes and one soup are enough for a family of five.

Duan's mother's cooking skills are not bad. Although she seldom cooks since Duan Tiancheng developed, her instinct is still there, so this skill was quickly picked up.

However, only Duan Xiaolou is in the mood to taste this delicious delicacy at this time, and the attention of others has already been focused on him, so how can he be in the mood to eat?

Mother Duan looked at Duan Xiaolou who was eating slowly, and felt more and more that her second son was different from before.

How could Duan Xiaolou peel the shrimp by himself before he was hospitalized? He must have looked at the boss sitting next to him eagerly, and the boss would peel the shrimp for him, remove the shrimp line and dip it in the seasoning, and then put it in his In a small bowl.

But now, Duan Xiaolou gently peeled off the slender white fingers, and the shrimp shells fell into the small plate next to him. Bye, he slightly tore the shrimp meat on his back, and the shrimp threads fell into the pile of shrimps. on the shell.

After peeling the shrimp, Duan Xiaolou wiped his hands with a paper towel, then picked up the chopsticks to pick up the shrimp in the bowl, dipped it in the seasoning and put it in his mouth.

Eating a shrimp is so elegant, is this still my stupid son?

Duan's mother wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so she could only keep peeking at Duan Xiaolou, and the other people at the table were obviously in the same situation.

Duan Xiaolou suddenly turned his head and asked, "What's the matter, Mom?"

The sound of "Mom" is close and natural, probably due to the magic power contained in the blood itself, Duan Xiaolou's acceptance of family members is extraordinarily high.

"No, it's nothing." Duan's mother wanted to ask if Duan Xiaolou had returned to normal, but she was worried that asking her son would hurt her son.

"Mom, I'm no different from ordinary people now." Duan Xiaolou is not used to lying, so he used a very meaningful statement to express his current situation.

Hearing Duan Xiaolou's words, not only Duan's mother, but also other people present were very excited.

Duan's father wiped his face, barely suppressed the tears in his eyes, raised his glass and said, "Although we have lost our company and our former residence, these are all belongings outside our body, so we can live together as a family in peace. , is the most important thing. Xiaolou has now returned to normal due to a blessing in disguise, and we have to drink to the future."

"Cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses and touched each other lightly, making a crisp crashing sound.

Duan Xiaolou has been recuperating at home because of his injury. He has adapted well here. Although he occasionally misses his former classmates, the company of his family makes him not too sentimental.

After resting at Duan's house for two days, the wound no longer hurts so much.

He has gained a lot in the past two days. From the computer, he has a more thorough understanding of the world. On the other hand, the dolls and comics he asked Duan Anran to sell already have buyers, and some customers have already paid, so he Now it's not so embarrassing anymore.

The Duan family has a lot of pocket money, but because the original body is stupid, the Duan family's parents dare not give him too much pocket money, and they usually ask their parents or elder brother for it when they need it.The current situation of the Duan family is obviously not optimistic. Although Duan Xiaolou didn't need much money, he was really embarrassed to speak up at this time, so he simply picked some unimportant things from memory and sold them for money.

The doll bear was given by Ban Hua, and the original body cherished it very much, but Duan Xiaolou learned from his memory that Ban Hua didn't send this bear out of any kindness, on the contrary, it was more of a play.Ban Hua's boyfriend is also a classmate in the class. Because he hates the original body, he asks Ban Hua to give him a big bear as a birthday present, and asks him to walk around the school with the big bear in his arms when he returns, so the "obedient" Yuan Walking around the school several times with such a big guy in his arms, he became the laughing stock of this group of people without knowing it.

For such a gift, Duan Xiaolou certainly didn't like it, and if he sold it for some money, it was considered waste.

As for those comics, they were all bought by Yuan himself. Duan Xiaolou didn't have much interest in comics, and just needed money to buy something, so he simply sold them together.

Duan Xiaolou is no different from ordinary people now, so now he urgently hopes to have some means of self-protection, and no matter which method is inseparable from the support of money, fortunately, the money has already been obtained, although it is not much, it is better than nothing.

While placing an order with a Taobao account he just registered, Duan Xiaolou marveled at the convenient shopping system in this world.Like the Luoxian Continent where he used to live, if you want to buy something, you must go to a place like a market, because not all markets are fully stocked, and sometimes you have to visit several places to buy what you need.

It's a pity that he can't get in touch with Shimen now, otherwise, if he builds a similar shopping network, Shimen will definitely be able to make a lot of money.

Duan Xiaolou pressed the confirmation button with a trace of regret, and immediately received the shipping information from the merchant on his mobile phone.

Knowing that the goods will not be delivered so quickly, Duan Xiaolou plans to take advantage of this time to visit the flower and bird market.Some things are more convenient to buy online, and some things are better bought in a physical store, especially living things.

Knowing that Duan Xiaolou was going to visit the flower and bird market, Duan's mother was a little worried, so she let Duan Yiqing and Duan Anran accompany her to go, and it was also a time for the children to relax.

Because of the bankruptcy of the family, the two children have been under a lot of pressure recently, and Mama Duan thinks it is good to go out for a walk like this.

There are several flower and bird markets in Zhongzhou City, but the one closest to where Duan's family lives now is Hongfeng Flower and Bird Market.

There is also a small antique street next to the flower and bird market, but most of them are fakes, especially those sold at stalls. They are all handicrafts, and most of them are bought by young people with little money.

The smell in the flower and bird market is not good, especially those pet shops, even if the boss cleans it every day, there is still a strange smell.

Duan Xiaolou has keen five senses, so he can't stand these smells, but he is very curious about these animals that keep making noises.Fortunately, Yuanshen seldom came here in the past, so his look of looking left and right did not attract the attention of the other two brothers.

Duan Xiaolou also raised a spirit beast in Misty Valley, but that little guy was on his body when he was promoted, so he probably turned into ashes along with his physical body long ago.

Thinking of this, Duan Xiaolou couldn't help feeling a little lonely.

It has become a habit for Duan Yiqing to take care of Duan Xiaolou, so she quickly noticed his loss. Reminiscent of Duan Xiaolou's curious eyes when she looked at those small animals just now, Duan Yiqing thought that it was because the second brother wanted to keep a pet but didn't care. Worry about not being able to afford it.

"You can tell brother what you like." Duan Yiqing said while touching Duan Xiaolou's head.

Duan Xiaolou looked up at Duan Yiqing, with a confused expression on his face, followed Duan Yiqing's gaze to the pet shop, and then he understood.

He had no interest in these "weak" animals, but he couldn't bear to refuse his brother's kindness, so he nodded and walked towards the shop.

This is a shop that sells pet dogs. Because there are many varieties, there are not a few people who buy them. Compared with this one, the shop next to it that sells reptiles can be described as empty.

Most of the people watched from a distance, and a very few interested ones just gathered at the door to look at the glass tanks outside. They were curious but not ready to pay for them.

Duan Xiaolou suddenly turned a corner halfway and walked towards the shop selling reptiles.

The lights in the store are a bit dim, the boss is a young guy, probably because the business is not so good, he is playing computer games on his own, when he heard the noise, he looked up, he seemed to think that people like Duan Xiaolou would not buy his stuff, So he buried his head down again, and said very casually: "Look at it as you like, and call me if you need it."

Although Duan Yiqing and Duan Anran were a little curious about the things in the store, they still felt a little nervous when they saw all kinds of strange lizards, spiders and snakes.

Duan Xiaolou ignored this, he walked straight to the corner, where there was a little green snake.

The little snake was originally languidly coiled in the corner, but as Duan Xiaolou approached, the little snake suddenly raised its head, looked in the direction of Duan Xiaolou, and then seemed to see some treasure, the whole time All the snakes stuck to the glass.

Duan Xiaolou couldn't help being amused looking at its stupid appearance, but also inexplicably sad.

The owner of the shop noticed Duan Xiaolou's movements from the corner of his eye, maybe because he felt that the business might be successful, so he graciously introduced: "This is a green tree python, I think it is related to you, do you want to buy one? "

What a fart!Do you think you are a monk in a temple?Duan Anran complained wildly in her heart.

Although Duan Yiqing didn't say anything, but judging by the expression, it seemed that she couldn't accept this little green life.

"How much is this snake?" Duan Xiaolou asked.

The two brothers of the Duan family felt cold at the same time, but the shop owner was happy, and quickly replied: "It's not expensive, it's only one thousand!"

"Second brother, this snake is inedible and not fun. If you want a pet, let's buy a pet dog, okay? You see, the pet dog at the opposite door only costs 100 yuan each. It is round and cute, and you can take it out for a walk! How wonderful!" After Duan Anran finished speaking, the little snake in the glass jar suddenly hissed towards him, startling him.

How does this snake seem to understand his words?

"That dog eats a lot and pulls a lot. Every day, he needs people to accompany him, take a bath and cut his hair. How can a snake save trouble? I think the little brother really wants it, and I will give you a real price-[-]! What do you think?" Seeing that the situation was not good, the boss ruthlessly lowered the price.

Duan Xiaolou really didn't think the price was high, but he was so shy.He got a total of 450 yuan, and spent another 170 yuan on online shopping. Now he only has [-] yuan left. He will buy other things later. How can he have the money to buy this?

As Duan Xiaolou thought about it, his eyes involuntarily drifted to his elder brother Duan Yiqing.

Duan Yiqing looked at her younger brother's little eyes full of prayer, expectation and trust, and suddenly the pressure doubled.

To buy or not to buy, this is really a terrible question!
