The snow started to fall on the evening of the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month, and did not stop until the evening of the 25th. It was the biggest snow this winter.

On the second day when the weather cleared, it happened to be in time for the year-end fair at the old bazaar on Xizi Street in the county seat.Zhao Jun, who had been at home for two days, got up early in the morning and urged Zhao Mo to hurry up so he could go out.They agreed to go to the big market today and bought all the necessities that should be bought for the New Year.

Zhao Mo slowly and leisurely put little cotton trousers and cotton jacket on the third baby, and he went down to tidy up the baby after he had finished fitting them properly.

What happened that night made him feel awkward with Sanwa all day, and Sanwa seemed to be having a temper with him, so he didn't rub against him all day, and he didn't share the same bed with him at night.

Usually children are the most clingy to Zhao Mo, as long as he is in front of him, no matter what he does, he will always follow him, and he will never leave.This time, he deliberately avoided him. Not only did he stop following him, but even when the brothers and three cats were watching TV on the kang, Sanwa would move a small bench and sit on the ground to watch TV, far away from Zhao Mo on the kang. .

Now Zhao Mo didn't care about being ashamed or being awkward, so he pulled his face down last night and moaned for a long time, finally coaxing Sanwa back into his bed.This time he didn't dare to say anything awkward, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he must hug the little soft body of the child tightly when sleeping, and being deliberately avoided by Sanwa made him feel worse than anything else.

The weather outside is fine, there is no strong wind, the sun climbs up the mountain, and the warm sun shines down, plating a layer of gold on the white snow covering the ground.

Before eight o'clock, Zhao Mo locked the door of the house, followed by the tall Zhao Jun on the left, holding Sanwa's little hand in his right hand, and the three brothers went to Laoji together along the street covered with a thick layer of snow. Go to the trade market.

Because the snow on the road has been trampled and compacted, it is a bit slippery to walk on, and if you don't pay attention to the bottom of your feet, you will slip straight.After walking a few steps out of the house, Zhao Mo stopped and wanted to pick up Sanwa and walk away.He was not at ease, afraid that the child would fall if he walked by himself, and if he led him away, he would not be able to carry the insurance by himself.

Sanwa, who was holding onto his fingers tightly and didn't let go, took a step back to avoid it, and said in that leaky voice: "I'm old, so I don't need to hug her."

Zhao Mo was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, stretched out his arms and rubbed Sanwa's head twice, and said happily: "Okay, I won't hug you, you go by yourself. Sanwa has grown up and is a It's a big child, and it will be seven years old after the new year!"

The older child, who will be seven years old after the new year, let Zhao Mo mess up his short fluffy hair expressionlessly, with his mouth tightly pursed, and he dragged Zhao Mo forward without saying a word.

While the two of them were dawdling behind, Zhao Jun had already gone to the front.While walking, he was also skating on the ice, walking one step and two steps, having fun by himself.

On the road, I met many people who also got up early to go to the old bazaar to catch the big market. All of them were full of joy. When they met each other to say hello, they would say hello, "Are you going to the market too?"

After a year of busy work, at the end of the new year, every family hides at home and waits for the Spring Festival.In the past few years, the county has developed rapidly, and people's lives have become more and more prosperous. Anyone with a little money on hand wants to have a good year.

The people here under the poplar trees like to wait until the end of the twelfth lunar month to go to the last big fair in the old bazaar. The things on it are complete and cheap, except for the rare few things like meat, which are a bit more expensive than usual. Many things that are usually hard to find can be bought, and it is the most affordable to buy New Year's goods at this time.

Walking and walking, with more and more people on the road, the three brothers gradually merged into the crowd.After walking for more than half an hour, when we arrived at the old bazaar, it could not be said that the big market was already crowded with cars and people.

Zhao Mo was afraid that Sanwa would be lost by the crowd, so he tightly held his little hand, protecting him by his lap and slowly moving forward.Zhao Jun also went around from Zhao Mo's left to his right, and together with his elder brother, Sanwa was sandwiched between them to protect him.

In the middle of the journey, Zhao Mo mentioned several times to carry Sanwa away, but Sanwa put on a serious face and refused to agree, insisting on going by herself.Ever since he had an awkward fight with Zhao Mo that day, he has never let Zhao Mo hug him, and it is the same today.

The right hand side where Zhao Jun was originally standing was now occupied by a mother and daughter.The little girl was also six or seven years old. He was held in his mother's arms. Her round face was flushed and her head was tied with two braids. She kept looking towards Zhao Mo's left.

Although she is small, she has a loud voice, and her voice can be clearly heard in the noisy crowd.When the adults started to concentrate on pushing forward in the crowd, she leaned forward and shouted at the third baby on the ground, "Zhao Peng! Zhao Peng!"

Sanwa ignored her and concentrated on following her elder brother closely. The little hand that was being squeezed also tried to squeeze Zhao Mo's palm back, and a layer of sweat broke out in the palm of his hand.It was the first time he encountered such a crowded scene. Seeing Zhao Mo being bumped from left to right and rubbed on right, he had physical contact with others almost all the time, his face was so dark that water dripped out. .

If he had known it would be like this when buying new year's goods, he would never let his elder brother come out to catch this big show!

Zhao Mo was thinking about what he needed to buy, and he was looking around at the moment, looking for a stall where there were fewer people so he could buy it first.Hearing that the little girl kept calling him third brother, he smiled, turned to the little girl and asked, "Lan Lan, what are you calling Sanwa for?"

"Brother Mozi, my mother said that she would put me in the supermarket over there to play with the rocking car. You let Zhao Peng go with me!" the little girl said loudly, putting her arms around her mother's neck.

Her name is Zhao Lanlan, and her father is Zhao Jianzhong, who worked in the repair shop in front of her. Zhao Mo and the others are from the same family, and they both live in Yangshuxiaqian Street. .

Zhao Mo liked this lively and cheerful little sister very much. Hearing what she said, he turned his attention to Aunt Qin who was holding Zhao Lanlan, and asked, "Auntie, do you want to put Lanlan in the supermarket?"

Holding her daughter in her arms, Chen Xiaoqin followed Zhao Mo and squeezed forward in the crowd. At this moment, her forehead was already sweating a lot.In winter, there is still thick snow outside, and so many people are crowded together, it is hard to feel the cold.

While twisting her body and trying to push forward, she turned her head and said to Zhao Mo: "I was thinking that we have a lot of things to buy. Seeing the crowds, we can't finish shopping in a while. It's inconvenient to bring children. It's better to leave her alone and let her play for a long time. In the newly opened Jinkelong supermarket at the west end of the market, there is a special area surrounded by barbed wire for children to play. I plan to put Lan Lan in there to play. You let three Let's go with the kids too, there are people outside their supermarket who watch the children playing inside, and they can play for half a day for a few dollars, which is much more cost-effective than other places."

"Jingkelong Supermarket..." Zhao Mo responded, looking down at Sanwa at his feet.In his heart, he thought about putting the third baby in there to play, and having companionship with Lan Lan, so as not to make it difficult to squeeze and buy things with him.Sanwa is always bored at home, and he is usually busy, so he doesn't have time to take him out to play.

That rocking car, other children like to play, Zhao Mo secretly thought that the third baby has never played it before, so he should really let him play for a while.

Zhao Jun next to him had to be distracted from watching the children in the middle from being touched by others, and he had to work around looking around to see the various stalls on both sides, and he was impatient for a long time.Hearing what Aunt Qin said, he nodded immediately, encouraging Zhao Mo to put Sanwa in the supermarket first before going out to buy anything.

Zhao Mo had this thought in mind, and after hearing what his second brother said, he immediately made up his mind to go.Sanwa was not happy, and held Zhao Mo's arm, sternly refusing to move.Now in the crowd, he stood there holding back, but the flow of people was unstoppable, bypassing the three of them and continuing to rush forward.

Thanks to Zhao Mo's skill, he protected Sanwa tightly, otherwise he would have to be squeezed down.He had no choice but to bend down to pick up the baby, and catch up with Aunt Qin and Lan Lan who had squeezed ahead.

There are two entrances and exits to the old bazaar, they come in from the east end, they have to pass through, and go out from the west end to get to the newly opened King Kelong supermarket there.

After squeezing for more than ten minutes, they finally squeezed out of the west exit, and within two steps, they saw the glittering golden signboard of Jinkelong Supermarket.

Chen Xiaoqin, who was holding Lan Lan, led Zhao Mo and the others in, and went straight to the children's play area she mentioned.This supermarket was newly opened recently, and Zhao Mo had never been there before, so he was a little dizzy after entering.

In fact, it's not just this one, Zhao Mo has almost never been in a place like a large supermarket, and when he came in, he felt terrified.He hugged the third baby in his arms tightly, and followed Aunt Qin half a step behind, for fear of losing track.

In the game area separated by glass, there is a trampoline on which you can jump, and there are two rocking cars on the side that you can sit on, and many other toys. There are already two children aged five or six inside. I'm playing.

Aunt Qin put Lan Lan down and went to the manager to pay the money.The little girl ran up to Zhao Mo's side, blushing with excitement, and called Sanwa excitedly: "Zhao Peng, let's go in and play! I want to ride the rocking car with you!"

Sanwa didn't even look at her, she raised her head and stared straight at Zhao Mo with big eyes, telling him with her eyes that she should not stay here to play, but follow him.

Ever since she lost her teeth and talked a little bit, as long as there are outsiders around, Sanwa will never open her mouth to speak, and just stare at people when she has something to do, and only Zhao Mo, a silly big brother whose heart is tied to him, can understand his eyes expressed the meaning.

Even though he saw what Sanwa meant, Zhao Mo didn't follow him, but coaxed him patiently and firmly, "Sanwa is good, let's play here for a while, and I'll come pick you up after Big Brother finishes shopping."

Originally, he thought that he would bring his three children out to catch the Daji so that the children could have fun, but he didn't expect that there were so many people in Daji this year, several times more than in previous years.In addition, they came here at the busiest time, so it was really inconvenient to bring children, and they might be bumped.Zhao Mo looked over the facilities in this supermarket carefully, and felt that there were special people watching, and it was much better to keep the third baby inside the barbed wire to play than to carry her outside to be squeezed.

Sanwa didn't speak, but just stared at him, her gaze was also firm.Zhao Mo talked left and right, but he didn't see the child nodding.Aunt Qin over there was asking him to pay the money, and Xiao Lanlan here was also stamping her feet, Zhao Mo was anxious, so she squatted down, hugged Sanwa, and kissed him on the cheek Go down, begging softly in his tone: "Sanwa is the most obedient, obedient, okay? If you are disobedient, big brother will really get angry..."

Said he was angry, but there was no anger in his voice at all, instead it was more gentle than usual.Zhao Mo, the big brother, has already figured out whether children are soft or not. If they can't coax this stubborn baby brother, Zhao Mo really doesn't know what to do.

People coming and going around could see it, and the people around were also watching. Sanwa never thought that Zhao Mo would suddenly kiss him.Ever since I went to school, my eldest brother has stopped hugging him and kissing his face from time to time, not in front of outsiders, and most of the time at home he just touches his head, pinches his cheeks and so on.

This kiss made Sanwa's little face turn red immediately, she broke away from Zhao Mo's arm, and walked quickly to the entrance.He turned his face away and refused to look at Zhao Mo, but he showed that he had compromised with his actions.

Seeing that Sanwa had passed by, Zhao Lanlan also ran over quickly, and stood at the entrance with him to look in.Zhao Mo stood up, cheerfully went to Aunt Qin to pay the money, and told Sanwa to be obedient, play here with Lan Lan, and wait for them to come back to pick him up.

Sanwa, who lowered her head, looked up at Zhao Mo, then immediately lowered her eyes, and nodded slightly in response.

Zhao Mo walked outside with Chen Xiaoqin, and when passing by the counter near the door, he called out to Zhao Jun, who was watching the rows of electronic products at the counter, and went out of the supermarket together.

The manager of the game area is a girl in her 20s, a little fat, with a gentle smile on her face all the time.Seeing that the two little boys and girls were so cute, her attitude became more gentle and kind.Especially Sanwa, with a pair of big black pearl-like eyes on her white and tender melon-seeded face, she looks as delicate as a doll, making her eyes sparkle with love.

After leading the two children in, the female administrator stood at the door, looked at them with a smile on her face, and reminded the last one from time to time to be careful not to fall.

Zhao Lanlan ran up and down on the trampoline, stood on the top and smiled and called the third baby below: "Zhao Peng, come up quickly! Let's jump together. When we get tired of playing with this, let's go over there to ride the rocking car. Then we will play house again, you will be your father, I will be your mother, and I will make dumplings for you!"

The two little girls who were playing on the trampoline stopped bouncing when they saw the two newcomers.Hearing Zhao Lanlan's words, the older girl with the ponytail cut in and said, "Shall we play house with you too?"

The other younger girl was Baotou, she was cuter than Zhao Lanlan and the other girl, and she was dressed in a foreign style, with white leather boots under a pink down jacket.She stared at Sanwa over there for a while, then suddenly said: "Let's play house together, I want to be a mother too."

"..."

The three little girls chattered over there, and in the end it revolved around the question of who would be Sanwa's bride, and no one would give in, so there was almost no quarrel.

Little friend Zhao Peng, who was being snatched away by the three little beauties, didn't even look this way.He was sitting on a rocking car by himself, staring blankly at the flashing lights on the front of the rocking car, looking as proud and cold as a prince in a fairy tale. In fact, he was thinking back and forth in his heart: big brother kiss me...kiss me...
