Chapter 21 Glutinous Rice Balls

Before dawn, Sun Yanshi was woken up by the sound of Lang Song cutting cucumbers in the kitchen. After waking up for a while, he couldn't help much in the kitchen, so he went upstairs to catch up on sleep.But he didn't sleep well. He lay half asleep for about an hour, and was awakened by the horn of the electric car outside.

He opened his eyes and looked at the time, it was just seven o'clock.He told Lang Song yesterday that he would let Lang Song go out of the stall in the morning with peace of mind, and Lang Yue would be under his care.He usually gets up late, and he doesn't know what time Langyue usually wakes up. Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't feel sleepy anymore, so he turned over and got up.

While changing clothes, he suddenly remembered something - Uncle Bing, who is known as the leader of Lanying Lane, set up a stall at the entrance of the lane to buy stone cakes.He forgot to ask Lang Song where the breakfast stall was located this morning. If Lang Song recklessly went to the alley to confront Uncle Bing, wouldn't he be beaten?

Sun Yanzhi frowned and "hissed", thinking that although the urban management rarely came here, if Lang Song really met the urban management at that point, the stall wouldn't be confiscated, right?

Thinking of this, Sun Yanshi unconsciously sped up his movements. After all, Lang Song was also a tenant who had signed a contract to live with him, and he would be responsible for anything that happened.Besides, today is the first day for the kid to set up a stall. If the business is not good and cannot be sold, it will be a blow to enthusiasm. He should take care of the business.

After quickly changing his clothes, Sun Yanzhi opened the door with his flip flops and met the little guy at the opposite door.

Langyue was wearing a goose yellow dress and a pair of white cloth shoes on her feet. She stood at the door of the room dazedly with her sleepy eyes open, obviously she hadn't woken up yet.

Sun Yanshi was surprised that Lang Yue had already dressed herself, he knelt down and opened his arms and said to Lang Yue, "Have you had enough sleep?"

Langyue was dazed for two seconds before she came back to her senses, she bent her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth, and threw herself into Sun Yanshi's arms with two steps, rubbing her soft cheek against Sun Yanshi's face.

Sun Yan met Ren Langyue for a while before carrying her into the bathroom, one big and one small brushed their teeth, washed their face, cleaned up and went downstairs, ready to find Lang Song.

Walking through the courtyard into the dimly lit store, Sun Yanshi opened the rolling door, and the room was suddenly brightened, and the fresh morning air came in.

Sun Yanshi led Langyue out, and just stepped out of the door with one foot, he inadvertently looked down and realized that Langyue's hair hadn't been combed yet. After sleeping all night, her originally black and smooth hair was messed up like a bird. nest.

He walked back to the store, took a small plastic comb from the shelf, and hugged Lang Yue to sit on the stool.

However, Sun Yanzhi knew that a comb should be used to comb hair, but he didn't know how to tie girls' hair.After combing carefully, the hair that should have been curled up was still curled up. He pressed it with his hands, but the hair was still curled up stubbornly.He was very helpless, so he had to pluck Langyue's hair, worked hard a few times, managed to tie a ponytail, and led Langyue out of the house.

As Sun Yanshi expected, Lang Song really set up his stall at the entrance of the alley.He went out and walked to the alley for a while, and saw Lang Song bending over to pack his things. To his surprise, Lang Song and Uncle Bing were busy with each other face to face, but nothing happened.

When Langyue saw her brother, she immediately let go of her hand and ran forward with a "da da da", and Sun Yanshi followed behind with a slightly faster pace.

Lang Song was burying his head in packing his things and preparing to go home, so he didn't pay attention to the big and small ones walking towards him. He didn't notice until the soybean lying at his feet was running towards Langyue.

Langyue ran over, hugged her brother's leg affectionately and acted like a baby.

Lang Song lowered his eyes to look at Lang Yue's ponytail that seemed to be combed but might as well not be combed. He tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth, and finally couldn't hold back a snort.

Sun Yanshi knew what Lang Song was laughing at. He walked to the stall with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, touched his nose uncomfortably, and asked, "How is business?"

Lang Song replied: "Very good, all sold out."

Sun Yanzhi raised his eyebrows in surprise. He was originally worried that Lang Song would be wronged, and worried that the business would not be good on the first day of opening, so he wanted to take a look. He didn't expect that Lang Song not only had a prosperous business, but also looked like Uncle Bing. All is well.

Sun Yanshi didn't ask any more questions, but turned to look at Uncle Bing who was putting out the stove and closing the stall, and asked, "Uncle, how is business?"

In fact, he didn't want to talk to Uncle Bing, but Lang Song set up a stall here to do business with Uncle Bing, so he had to say hello because of the situation.Uncle Bing is a native of Lanying Lane, so he behaves a bit domineeringly, so he can support Lang Song by saying this.No matter how much Uncle Bing looked down on him, at least he was a little afraid of him.

Uncle Bing snorted and packed his things on his own, without even looking at him.

Sun Yanshi took out the cigarette case again, smoked a cigarette, leaned forward and said, "Uncle Bing, do you want a cigarette?"

Only then did Uncle Bing raise his head, looked at Sun Yanshi with disdain, then picked up the rolling pin on the table and pushed Sun Yanshi's hand away, and said coldly, "No need, I can't bear it."

Sun Yanzhi was bored, but he didn't think much of it. Compared with Uncle Bing who used to point and scold him all over the alley, today's attitude is considered good.He slowly withdrew his hand and inserted the cigarette back into the case.

Looking at this scene, Lang Song frowned unhappily, but he didn't say anything clearly, because he didn't know what kind of feud Uncle Bing had with Sun Yanshi.

In fact, during this period of time, he also discovered that, except for Uncle Bing, everyone else's attitude towards Sun Yanshi was a bit strange.Lei Bin was always finding fault for no reason, and when Aunt Hua mentioned Sun Yanshi, she kept a secretive expression on her face, as if Sun Yanshi had done something shameful.

Lang Song couldn't help thinking about what happened in the morning. When he went out in the morning, the old lady Zhang, who was in the tailor shop opposite her, was sitting at the door of her shop, muttering something by herself. She flinched when she saw him, and then pointed at Sun Yanshi's The small shop said in a spirited voice: "This kid is really harmful, really harmful."

The abnormal behavior of these people made Lang Song feel uncomfortable. After thinking about it, he could only think of one possibility, that is, Sun Yanshi might have committed a crime when he was young.But since he is outside now, it means that even if he commits a crime, it is not a big deal, and it is definitely not "harmful". Moreover, Uncle Qiang's attitude towards Sun Yanshi is not like treating a young man who has lost his footing. .

In short, Lang Song felt that this should not be the reason, and there must be something else hidden in it.

He withdrew his thoughts and said, "Brother, there is still some glutinous rice left, can you eat rice balls?"

"Okay." Sun Yanshi ignored Uncle Bing, "Let me see how you do it?"

Lang Song dug out the portion of glutinous rice reserved for Sun Yanshi, put it on the bamboo curtain covered with a layer of plastic wrap, and added a whole salted duck egg on it. Most of it went out, and I added a little to other side dishes, and then rolled and pressed, wrapped a very solid rice ball in a kraft paper bag and handed it to Sun Yanshi.

"It smells so good!" Sun Yanshi took a bite and praised sincerely.

Langyue licked her lips, looked at Sun Yanshi helplessly, and pulled Lang Song's pants aggrievedly.

Lang Song bent down and nodded her nose: "You go home and eat millet porridge and eggs."

Langyue kept shaking her head and kept using sign language. She had only learned sign language for a year, and she was not very proficient in using sign language.

Lang Song shook his head in disapproval, first told her to speak slowly with sign language, and then helplessly made Lang Yue a small rice ball filled with shredded cucumber and corn, about the size of an egg.

Sun Yanshi was so happy that he helped Lang Song put away the ponytail, and led Lang Yue back to the store.

Back in the store, Lang Song immediately took a comb to comb Lang Yue's hair.

While nibbling on rice balls, Sun Yanshi watched as Lang Song skillfully tied two playful little ball heads on Lang Yue's head, and also wore two red tomato hair clips, which matched with the goose yellow skirt. Goes like scrambled eggs with tomato.

He lowered his head and laughed, chewing the rice balls and said vaguely: "I wanted to tie him a ponytail, but my hands are too clumsy, teach me when you have time."

Lang Song sat on the low stool at the door, raised his head to look at Sun Yanshi, rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Okay."

Now the sun was shining into the alley and into the shop, Lang Song's clean look in the sun suddenly dazzled Sun Yanshi's eyes.

Sun Yanshi smiled lightly, thinking that the good weather and good age really match.

After combing Lang Yue's hair, Lang Song went to the kitchen to clean the stall tools.Sun Yanshi leaned on the chair, watching Langyue drink porridge, soybeans and chew dog food, while listening to the intermittent sound of water and collisions from the backyard.

After cleaning up the tools, Lang Song returned to the shop, still sitting on the low stool at the door.He took a notebook and a pen to calculate the income of the stall this morning, excluding the cost of materials and time, if calculated on an hourly basis, it would be more profitable than moving goods in the wholesale market.

Sun Yanshi raised his eyebrows and watched Lang Song earnestly settle accounts with frowning eyebrows. He couldn't help but look at this young man with admiration.

In the past few days, whenever Lang Song was free, he said he would go outside for a walk. He thought it was because he was new to Lanying Lane and wanted to walk around.It was only when he saw Lang Song calmly saying "all sold out" at the alley just now that he realized that Lang Song was doing "market research" for this breakfast stall.

From the beginning to the end, Lang Song was doing this very well. He first surveyed the surrounding environment, and then silently observed the population flow in Lanying Lane. Finally, he also considered the storage conditions and chose the best operation. The most convenient storage of glutinous rice balls.I don't know what method Lang Song used, but he even got rid of the difficult Uncle Bing.

Sun Yanzhi Zhiyi thought about it, and suddenly felt dwarfed by the comparison. When he was eighteen or nineteen years old, what he thought about most was what to eat for lunch and what to eat for dinner.

After finishing the calculation, Lang Song got up and said to Sun Yanshi: "Brother Yan, I will go out with Yueyue later."

"Going to work?" Sun Yanshi came back to his senses, "Why are you taking her with you on such a hot day?"

Lang Song shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and said honestly: "No, Yueyue is also at the age where she should go to kindergarten. I found a private kindergarten for her, but she is in a special situation. I want to take her there."

Sun Yanshi was sitting lazily, but he straightened up when he heard this. In fact, he had talked with Hua Qiang about it, and he had been thinking about it since the siblings moved in.He thought that Lang Song might not have taken it to heart, so he wondered whether to let Hua Qiang ask or ask himself. Unexpectedly, Lang Song even contacted the kindergarten by himself without saying a word.

He rubbed Langyue's head and asked, "Aren't you going to send her to a special school?"

Lang Song shook his head: "I didn't intend to send her to a special school, I will make her a normal child as soon as possible."

Sun Yanshi nodded thoughtfully, and wanted to ask something more, when Lang Song's cell phone rang.

Lang Song turned around and answered the phone, hung up the phone after saying a few words, and said to Sun Yanzhi: "My friend is just about to deliver the goods, so drop me by the way."

Sun Yanshi didn't ask any more questions, and just told them to go back early and call if they needed something.
