I became an internet celebrity by running a grocery store

The news that there was a particularly cute white cat in the canteen quickly spread in Nanlin Village.

If you don’t pay for something at the store, the white cat will immediately jump off the counter and bite your trousers to prevent you from leaving, while meowing, as if reminding you to pay.And if you can't find any product, just tell it, and it will put up its big tail and take you there.When everyone looked at the cat, they thought it was strange and loved, and they had to tease it every time they went to the canteen.

Zhang Xiaobei named it "Dabai", a vulgar name based on his coat color, but he loves him a lot.Dabai lay on the cash register every day, watching the villagers coming and going at the door with a pair of lake-blue eyes.Sometimes when it is sleepy, it draws its paws under the body and falls asleep.

Most of the time, she would sleep in Zhang Xiaobei's arms, bury her face in his belly, stretch her limbs lazily and relaxedly, revealing her soft, pink belly.Zhang Xiaobei hugged him all morning, and he didn't feel sleepy in his arms at all.

At first, he didn't quite understand why it was called a high-tech pet when it was just an ordinary white cat. He thought he was fooled by the software again.

Until he found out that the cat wouldn't eat or drink.

A large piece of chicken breast he cooked was placed in a porcelain bowl under the cash register, and a glass of cold water was prepared next to it.As a result, the meat remained the same after being placed under his feet for a whole day, and Dabai didn't even want to go to the bowl to smell it, and the water didn't move at all.But he was still alive and kicking every day, and he didn't lose any weight, just like when he came here.

Only then did Zhang Xiaobei realize that the cat didn't seem to need to eat or drink.Also, it won't shed hair.Unless you pull hard at the soft hairs on its body, there is no chance of pulling a hair or two.

No wonder it's called a high-tech pet, only then did Zhang Xiaobei understand.

It's just like the little cat in everyone's dream, it doesn't shed hair, doesn't feed, doesn't shovel shit.He is also very obedient, hugging and masturbating.Zhang Xiaobei didn't like it very much, since he got Dabai, even Xiao Hulu fell out of favor all at once.Ever since Dabai came, he has told him all the gossip he babbled about every day.

Similarly, like all cat owners, he started a crazy career of posting cats. Every day, Weibo in Moments is full of photos and videos of Dabai.

Zhang Xiaobei's Weibo didn't have many fans, but since Xia Songfeng's Weibo posting the identification report became popular, he replied to Zhang Xiaobei alone with thousands of comments.So many fans clicked into his homepage out of curiosity, and found that he was the owner of the canteen in Nanlin Village, so some fans followed him out of frustration.

Faced with the sudden increase of 200 fans, Zhang Xiaobei was a little flattered.Since then, all the comments on the thread have asked him to post photos. Zhang Xiaobei was embarrassed, so he launched the delicacies of his own canteen.From Kanto cooking to handmade spicy strips, there are also a variety of snacks with a sense of age.

Stirring candy, Nanjing salted duck, figs, toothpick candy, etc. were all Zhang Xiaobei's favorites when he was a child.In order to gather these snacks, he searched all over the Internet, but unfortunately he only found a small part.

For the rest, Zhang Xiaobei didn't expect that he would meet them in a small shop in the town.

Speaking of it, it was thanks to Li Liezi, who was a little surprised when he came to pick up the goods that day and saw that he was eating Nanjing salted duck, and asked him why he still likes to eat these.Zhang Xiaobei knew that these snacks were synonymous with uncleanness and unhealthy in the eyes of some people, so he put them away with a smile and said that he could eat whatever he wanted.

"If you like food, you can go to South Street to buy it. There is a wholesale snack shop there, but there are many more. The small shops in the town get all the goods from there."

Zhang Xiaobei's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he made a special trip to take a look at it on the weekend.

Compared with the business at the entrance of the market, the shops on South Street are a little deserted, but there is only one shop, and the goods have already arrived at the entrance, and the proprietress's loud voice can be heard from far away.

The entrance of the alley was a bit narrow, so Zhang Xiaobei parked the car at the intersection and walked in.

The shop is not big, and the things are crowded, but you can find some order in the chaos.The snacks that Zhang Xiaobei wanted were all placed by the proprietress on the bottom shelf of the container. At a glance, they were all his favorites when he was a child.It's true that people searched for him thousands of Baidu, but he was at the door of his own house.

"Miss Boss, why are you selling these?"

The proprietress was clicking the calculator, without raising her head, she said, "There are prices on the wall."

Zhang Xiaobei looked around, and found that there was half a wall of paper pasted at the entrance, which was filled with the prices of various commodities.The proprietress here only sells by the box. He roughly calculated that it was still the same price as when he was a child, so he took a box of each.

Seeing that he bought a lot, the proprietress found a cart for him to pull out.

Zhang Xiaobei didn't expect these snacks to be as popular as Dabai.

Speaking of which, these foods are not uncommon, and they are also sold in the city, but most of them drive up the price in the name of nostalgia.Go in and turn around casually, and there are dozens of times.That bit of nostalgia for childhood and past youth still has to be paid for with money in the end.

But Zhang Xiaobei's shop is different, the 5 cents is still 5 cents, the price is not to mention how touching, it makes people feel as if they have returned to more than ten years ago.

At the beginning of Weibo, many people asked him for the link. Zhang Xiaobei couldn’t laugh or cry, so he sent a Weibo specifically to tell them that it was not worth it, because the courier fee starts at 10 yuan.Then I posted the link to buy snacks on Weibo for them to buy by themselves. Although the snacks are not complete, they can satisfy their cravings.

It made fans who followed him dissatisfied and found it funny.

[I have never seen such a real shopkeeper [laughing and crying.jpg]. 】

[If I want to order more, will he tell me the wholesale address. 】

[I'm so greedy to see it, I'm so happy to open a small shop in the countryside, I really want to go around. 】

Seeing that everyone liked it, Zhang Xiaobei posted more diligently on Weibo. He likes to share his life with everyone.In addition to all kinds of beautiful photos of Dabai, there are also what the canteen sold today or interesting things happened on Weibo every day, which is full of life.

In the blink of an eye, it was the Lunar New Year, and the migrant workers in the village began to rush home one after another.The reunion moment that everyone has been looking forward to for a year finally brings the family together, and every household is beaming.

Tao Guang also called Zhang Xiaobei, his tone very uncle.Said that he would come to him during the Chinese New Year, and asked Zhang Xiaobei to prepare in advance.

Zhang Xiaobei naturally knew what he meant by saying this, it was nothing more than asking him to buy more food and drink and wait at home.Zhang Xiaobei disliked him a bit, but he went to the town to buy ingredients honestly.

There are so many people approaching the Chinese New Year market, everyone is crowded in rows on the path of the vegetable market, surrounded by crowds and walking forward.At this time, Zhang Xiaobei had realized the benefits of being tall, even in a crowd of people, he could clearly see every vegetable stall, but it was difficult to stretch his arms.

The variety of dishes sold in the market is also more abundant than usual. All kinds of fish, beef and mutton, meatballs, handmade twists, etc. are here. In addition to all kinds of fresh fish, Zhang Xiaobei also whole a lamb hind leg, Prepare to bake and eat when Tao Guang arrives.

After loading everything into the car, he drove back.When I drove to the casserole restaurant, I saw a message that the store would be closed in three days posted outside the door, and it would be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month when the door opened again.Zhang Xiaobei went in and picked up two bottles of hot sauce. He had planned to invite Tao Guang to taste this casserole in person, so he had to give up.Looking at the hot sauce, Zhang Xiaobei decided to go back and make it for him.Anyway, the uniqueness of the lady boss casserole lies in this bottle of hot sauce. With it, and with her own superb cooking skills, she can make a perfect dish.

When I drove to the entrance of the village, I saw a few social youths standing or squatting at the entrance of the canteen, smoking cigarettes together.The reason why Zhang Xiaobei called them social youths was because their hair was dyed in various colors, which was particularly eye-catching in this gray-yellow village.There are also clothes, today's weather is below zero, but they are only wearing thin coats, and some people even wear summer ripped jeans.

But no matter how they dress up, it has nothing to do with Zhang Xiaobei, it's just that the place where they are standing happens to be where he usually parks his car.Zhang Xiaobei honked the horn, trying to get them out of the way.

When the horn sounded and there was a beep, those people all looked up at him.One of the black-haired ones dropped the cigarette in his mouth, stepped on it, put his hand in his pocket, and walked straight towards Zhang Xiaobei.

He knocked on the glass, Zhang Xiaobei's heart skipped a beat, he didn't want to fight with him.He swallowed, and lowered the window.

"Boss, you're back." The man looked at him happily, and the crow's feet appeared from his smile.

Zhang Xiaobei was a little unresponsive, "You are..."

"Me," the man pressed down his hair and looked at him with his eyes closed.

"Yellow...hair?"

"Hey, you remember now." Huang Mao patted his arm familiarly, and said warmly: "What are you doing, let me wait for a long time."

Zhang Xiaobei laughed, "Go to the market to buy something, what can I do for you?"

"What else can I do, don't I just want to eat that." Huang Mao's part-time job is in the southernmost part of the country, and it takes five days to send a courier. Even if the spicy strips are vacuum-packed there, they won't taste very good.So since he went out, he hasn't eaten this bite again, so it can be said that he didn't think so.

I went back to the village last night, and early in the morning, I called my friends and ran over, planning to take them to have a taste.Who knew that the canteen was closed. I asked Aunt Wang and found out that the canteen is closed on Sundays.But it was already here, and he didn't want to leave, so he just stayed at the door.

"But the door is not open today, so come tomorrow." Zhang Xiaobei looked a little embarrassed.

Huang Mao looked at him and sighed, "That's fine." Then he moved away.The people on the side also followed him to the other side to give up the parking space.

Zhang Xiaobei parked the car and Huang Mao didn't leave, seeing him moving things, he came up to help him.

"Buy so many, ready for the New Year."

Zhang Xiaobei nodded, "Has your family started preparing new year's goods?"

"It started early. My mother said that growing strawberries this year made a lot of money. I bought a lot of chicken, duck and fish, pickled and fried. My kitchen smells delicious every day."

The few things in Zhang Xiaobei's car were moved by a few people in one trip.He politely asked them to drink a glass of water, and Huang Mao agreed directly.

He went to the canteen to get some drinks and snacks. Huang Mao was quite relaxed, but the others were a little cramped.

"Why did you dye your hair?"

Huang Mao scratched his hair, his expression was a little irritable, "Isn't this my mother, she wanted me to go on a blind date during the Chinese New Year, and my dad grabbed me out of bed early in the morning to dye it, and my ears were dyed black .”

Zhang Xiaobei looked behind his ears and saw that the pinnae of his ears were indeed black, so he couldn't help but burst out laughing.Not only has the yellow hair turned black, but it is also shorter than before. It looks more energetic and tidy, without the sluggishness it used to have.

"It looks pretty good too." Zhang Xiaobei praised.

After hearing what he said, Huang Mao was a little embarrassed, rubbed his hair and lowered his head slightly, "Don't comfort me, by the way, are you sure you will open the door tomorrow?"

"Yes, the only day off is Sunday."

"What about the Chinese New Year?"

Chinese New Year?This Zhang Xiaobei thought for a while, Tao Guang was coming, and he had no time to accompany him by guarding the store, so he said, "It's also closed."

Huang Mao patted his thigh, "Okay, I know, then I have to hurry up and eat more. But it's not necessarily true. If I find a match, I'll stay in the village, and I won't have to worry about not being able to eat in the future."

"Aren't you going to go out to work?"

Huang Mao looked at him and nodded, "My mother said that if Xiangzhong keeps strawberries at home, I can get a few more greenhouses on my land and work hard enough."

That's what his mother said when he dyed his hair this morning, Huang Mao actually didn't want to go out.When I first entered the city, I felt that everything was fresh and interesting.But the novelty didn't last long, and was overwhelmed by the fatigue of work and the pressure of adult survival.

After escaping the control of his parents and getting the long-awaited freedom, he suddenly began to miss the days when he still had to rely on his parents.

If possible, Huang Mao still wants to stay in the village, even if he earns less.

"That's pretty good. Strawberry signed a long-term contract. As long as you don't worry about hard work, you will definitely earn something."

Huang Mao scratched his head and laughed, and the people on the side were envious when they heard the conversation between the two.They were not from Nanlin Village, but from the town and neighboring villages. They were all old classmates.At the beginning, several people entered the city together. Now that Huang Mao can come back and settle down, everyone is envious and blessed.

Several people chatted for a while before Huang Mao left. Xia Songfeng came within 2 minutes of leaving, and the two could talk about each other.

Looking at the empty drink bottles and snacks on the table, Xia Songfeng keenly sensed that someone was coming.He leaned close to Zhang Xiaobei and sniffed him like a dog, "Who's here?"

Xia Songfeng's nose rubbed against his neck a few times, causing a burst of itching, Zhang Xiaobei pushed him away with a smile, "Yellow hair."

"Yellow hair? What is he doing here?"

"Come to buy spicy noodles, but I didn't open the door." Zhang Xiaobei turned his back against the table, hooked his neck and pulled him closer.

Xia Songfeng lightly pecked him on the mouth, "Does he have a date?"

Zhang Xiaobei sneered, deliberately teasing him, "No, he also likes men."

Xia Songfeng's eyes widened with a swipe, and there was a vigilant light in his eyes.

"Just kidding, people don't like men, and they will go on a blind date in a few days."

Xia Songfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense body also relaxed, "Still lying to me."

"do not."

Sensing what he wanted to do, Zhang Xiaobei quickly grabbed his two paws that were about to move, "Is it just teasing you, do you think everyone has the same vision as you."

Xia Songfeng tilted his head, "Are you complimenting me or you?"

Zhang Xiaobei laughed twice, "Guess for yourself."

When the two of them were eating, he told him what Huangmao told him that might stay.

"That's good. Boss Wang called me some time ago and said he wanted to order more creamy strawberries. There are only so many people in our village, and strawberries are not easy to harvest by machine. I'm worried. It's a good thing that young people come back. "

"How much does Boss Wang want?"

"He said the more the better, besides supermarkets and hotels under him, he means that he wants to provide them all."

While the two were talking, Dabai walked in, and he didn't know where to go, his little face was completely black.I changed the breed directly and became a Siamese cat.Zhang Xiaobei hurriedly put down his chopsticks and took a wet towel to wipe its face, "Where did it go, it's like this."

Dabai meowed, with a long and melodious voice, and the tip of his tail was rubbing against Zhang Xiaobei's face flatteringly.

After wiping his face clean, Zhang Xiaobei let it go. He kicked his hind legs and jumped onto the sofa lightly.Afterwards, he found a soft place and lay down in a circle with his body, very satisfied.

"Doesn't it eat?"

Zhang Xiaobei pouted at the cat bowl at the bottom of the wall, "He's hungry and goes back to eat."

The author has something to say:

Dabai is my dream cat!I would like to say something softly, the snacks sold in those small shops that are nostalgic and childhood are really expensive, and I am reluctant to buy them.
