Return To 1998

Tongdao Xu smiled and said nothing. He just cut open three large eggplants and placed them on the grill as soon as the fire was lit in the oven.

Then, that night, Xu Tonglin finally ate the roasted eggplant he had been looking forward to for a long time. When he took the first bite, Xu Tongdao narrowed his eyes happily when he saw him.

My heart is both funny, but also a little uncomfortable.

He self-examined in his heart, brought Xu Tonglin to this county for so many days, and sold so many copies of roasted eggplants, but he never let Xu Tonglin taste it.

In fact, he had never tasted his own roasted eggplant seriously. Every time he tried it, he just used a bamboo skewer to stick it on the roasted eggplant, and then tasted the juice on the bamboo skewer.

He is not a glutton himself.

He is also happy to eat food, but if he can't eat it, he doesn't particularly think about it.

He was such a person himself, and he inadvertently ignored Xu Tonglin's feelings. Xu Tonglin's fat body had already exposed the secret of his greed.

Hey! Xiaodao, look at the bald head! What do you think he is doing? Hey, he also bought a display cabinet today?

Xu Tonglin, who had just eaten two bites of grilled eggplant, suddenly pointed at the bald Zhang and called out to Xu Tongdao.

Tongdao Xu turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw that there was a display cabinet not far from the oven of the bald Zhang tonight, and it was also a new display cabinet.

Xu Tongdao's attention was that the bald Zhang was climbing a tree at this time. Inexplicably, Xu Tongdao remembered the picture of the bald head climbing a tree in the original time and space cartoon Bear Infested.

Xiaodao, what do you think he is doing? There won't be a bird's nest on that tree, right?

Xu Tonglin muttered beside Xu Tongdao.

Tongdao Xu narrowed his eyes and looked at the phoenix tree that the bald head was climbing. After several glances, he didn't see a bird's nest on the tree, but he noticed that the bald head looked like a wire was tied to his waist.

At this time, Xi Xiaoqian, who was wearing a red apron around her waist, also came over and said hesitantly, It should be pulling wires for his display cabinet!

When she said this, both Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin felt that it was very possible.

After all, there is room for a display case in the bald Zhang's booth, but it is not easy to pull a wire.

There wasn't another newsstand there, nor any other little shop with electricity.

By the way, where did the fat man's display cabinet get the electricity from? Xu Tonglin suddenly thought of this question.

The answer is not difficult to find.

Tongdao Xu and Xiaoqian Xi subconsciously looked for the direction of the wires in Fatty Lu's display cabinet, and soon noticed that Fatty Lu's wires were also pulled down from a plane tree.

There is no electricity on the plane tree itself, but the red wire is a few meters above the tree, crossing the road, and then tied to another plane tree on the opposite side of the road, and there are shops with electricity on the opposite side of the road. It seems that Fatty Lu’s The display case is powered from the store across the road.

Hey, Miss Qian! I have a question for you!

Xu Tonglin suddenly turned to talk to Xi Xiaoqian.

Xi Xiaoqian and Xu Tongdao both looked at him curiously, Xi Xiaoqian smiled lightly, You ask!

Xu Tonglin turned his head and glanced at the bald Zhang who was climbing the tree, Xiao Qian, we have been here for a while, why has the bald Zhang always been doing business alone? What about his wife? Why didn't he sell with his wife like Fatty Lu did? what!

Not to mention, Xu Tongdao is also a little curious about this question.

After Xi Xiaoqian heard the question, she smiled again, I heard that his wife has been dead for several years, and he is reluctant to spend money to hire someone, so naturally he can only do it by himself!

Dead? Isn't he too old? This is the death of his wife?

Xu Tonglin was surprised.

Tongdao Xu frowned slightly and turned to look at the bald Zhang who had already climbed up the tree.

He didn't sympathize with the bald Zhang because of this incident, he just felt a little emotional - as expected, when people are older, they will have some stories.

When he squinted at the bald head Zhang, he heard Xi Xiaoqian say: Yes! He is probably only forty or fifty years old at most! But I heard that his wife has been dead for several years, and I heard that he has a relationship with his son. It's not very good, his son usually works outside, but he hasn't come back for the past two years...

This means that the bald Zhang's current life is almost the same as that of an old bachelor?

Tongdao Xu thought of this thought, and suddenly, his half-squinted eyes widened slightly, and his expression became surprised.

A red bicycle rode to the booth of the bald Zhang, a young woman with a height of about 1.6 meters, fair complexion, wearing a white dress got out of the car, looked around, and saw the bald Zhang who had climbed up the tree. , She immediately parked the bicycle, then walked quickly to the tree, raised her face and said something to the bald-headed Zhang on the tree.

Because it was dozens of meters away, Tongdao Xu couldn't hear what she was saying to Bald Zhang.

But it was not dark yet, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on her fair goose egg face, allowing Xu Tongdao to see her face clearly.

she……

How did she get here? Cousin? Isn't this Feng Qinghua?

At that moment, Xu Tongdao was really a little confused.

The woman Feng Qinghua is the wife of his cousin Ge Liangcai in the original time and space.

If he saw her anywhere else in the county, Tongdao Xu would not be as surprised as he is now.

Where is this place?

A happy street with boundless wind and moon, and what can she say to that bald Zhang?

Did she come to the bald Zhang's stall on purpose to buy barbecue?

Can't!

Tongdao Xu felt that the possibility of her coming to Bald Zhang to buy barbecue was very small, because the things that Bald Zhang grilled were the worst among all the barbecue stalls on this street.

Therefore, if Feng Qinghua came to buy a barbecue, and there was no one in front of the bald-headed Zhang's oven, she could walk a few steps forward. Fatty Lu's barbecue stall and the bald-headed Zhang's stall were right next to her!

Or come to his Tongdao Xu to buy it. Anyway, she came over on a bicycle with two feet on her feet. Tongdao Xu's barbecue stall looked more than double the size of the stall with bald head Zhang.

No! No! How can you do it? Fifty a month! Not even a single point! Don't be rude to me here! I'll ask you if it's okay to go up to fifty a month?

The bald head on the tree opened his mouth, and his voice was relatively loud, and Tongdao Xu could hear him sitting dozens of meters away.

But what Feng Qinghua said under the tree, Xu Tongdao couldn't hear it at all.

Fifty a month?

What's up fifty?

Is there anything else Feng Qinghua can't do with this bald Zhang?

Tongdao Xu had a question on his forehead, frowned and thought for a while, then subconsciously stood up and walked over there. Feng Qinghua was his original cousin after all, and if nothing else happened, she would be his cousin in this life.

And his cousin Ge Liang was kind to him.

Therefore, seeing that Feng Qinghua and Bald Zhang seemed to have something difficult to solve, Tongdao Xu couldn't sit still and wanted to listen and see if he could be of any help.

It is to leave a good impression on the future cousin.
