Chapter 60 60. The real man Zhang Yanping
Two more people came to help, and soon a cartload of goods was moved.
The uncle is very embarrassed. His son is still upstairs. How can he ask a relative girl to help? Even though this girl is stronger than him.
But he was always honest and didn't know what to say. Now he simply brought out two boxes of fruit: "Come on, Tantan, Qiaoqiao, eat some fruit."
The aunt was busy buying groceries, leaving the siblings to eat at noon.
However, Song Tan and Qiao Qiao both shook their heads.
Song Tan It’s because the food outside is really hard to swallow.
Qiaoqiao was thinking: Can I buy another toy set at noon?
They refused too firmly, and the aunt stood there nervously, and finally picked up the fruit on the table:
“Then let me wash some of these big cherries for you!”
Song Tan quickly grabbed her and said, "Auntie, you really don't need it! These big cherries cost 100 yuan per catty. You can keep them and sell them!"
This honest couple's kindness to others is to try their best to get the good ones. After the big cherry was rejected, they opened another box of fruit: a box of golden kiwi fruits.
“You eat what you eat…”
Auntie also quickly peeled one for Qiaoqiao: "Come on, Qiaoqiao, try this Zespri Jinqi. It costs more than ten yuan each in the market! Tell auntie what it tastes like!"
The implication is that they are not willing to eat such expensive fruit.
Song Tan couldn't help but laugh: "Auntie, you fruit sellers don't taste the fruit, so what if the fruit you buy doesn't taste right?"
The aunt smiled honestly: "Isn't that your brother Yanping at home? He is very talkative and eats whatever is expensive in the market. He can tell whether it is good or not by tasting it."
Song Tan was curious: "Is Brother Yanping at home?"
Brother Yanping's name is Zhang Yanping. He is the only son of his aunt. He is two years older than Song Tan. How come he is still at home now, despite his age and moral integrity?
When talking about her son, the aunt sighed.
"Your brother has no ambition. I asked him to go to work. He said he would help in the fruit shop at home."
“But I didn’t see any work at home. The imported fruit caused me trouble for more than ten boxes. Beat him and scold him. He said that when we get old, he will still have to take care of this fruit shop. Now let’s start practicing-”
“But if you practice during the day and play games until midnight at night, your uncle and I will be worried to death!”
This is really not an aunt and uncle pampering their children, there is really no way!
Zhang Yanping stayed at home for two years after graduation. His aunt had already kicked him out to find a job, and she even stopped living expenses for this reason.
However, Zhang Yanping is just a piece of meat on a hob, a copper pea, a resounding one!
After stopping living expenses, he would go home when he was hungry and squat at the door of the kitchen during meals.
If that doesn’t work, just go through the fruits in the warehouse and eat whatever is expensive.
Eating made my aunt and uncle tremble in their hearts.
He should have locked all the doors and warehouses at home. The naughty boy even called the locksmith. Finally, because he had no money to pay the bill, the locksmith called the couple.
I want to let go of it, don't give money, just go directly to the police station ... But the couple still have the dream of a civil servant!
What is there a saying? The end of the universe is Kaogong.
In the eyes of this honest couple, there is nothing more stable and popular than civil servants. Even if the salary is low, don't they still have a fruit shop? Enough.
As a result, they were worried about being put into the police and leaving a criminal record, which made them both worried.
Qiaoqiao blinked and listened beside her, but didn't understand. She just looked at her aunt expectantly: "Where's my brother?"
Auntie pointed towards the stairwell: "I'm sleeping up there! I played games last night and I don't know what time it was. Qiaoqiao, go play with him!"
Children all look after older children, and he obviously has such a place in Qiaoqiao's heart.
As expected, Qiao Qiao took the kiwi fruit and ran upstairs: "The fruit is so sweet, I'll go eat it with my brother!"
Obviously I forgot that I have a sister.
Song Tan couldn't laugh or cry. Only then did the aunt have time to ask: "Tan Tan, why are you here?"
Song Tan still said the same thing: "I'm too tired from work, so I resigned and went home to recuperate for a while. During this time, I was helping farm the land."
The aunt quickly advised her: "Don't stay too long. Farming is not a good job. As a girl, you will be so tanned that it won't look good!"
Song Tan then brought his small basket over:
“Auntie, the vegetables growing in our field this year are particularly delicious. Many people are vying for this milkvetch. I specially left a few handfuls for you. You can fry it and try it at noon.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that his uncle had already peeled another kiwi fruit and handed it over: "Tantan, you eat it."
Song Tan couldn’t help but feel sorry for her aunt—
With these few words, twenty or thirty yuan was spent. Song Tan also knows how simple her aunt's home is.
But it was all peeled off, so she took it and stuffed it into her mouth, then quickly covered the box and moved it aside.
Sweet juice burst out in her mouth, mixed with the familiar turbid smell. This taste was really not good.
However, Song Tan has gotten used to it, so now he just said vaguely: "Uncle, don't peel it, just taste it, keep it and sell it."
The uncle smiled naively: "You are few, so eat more."
The aunt also shook off her sad look: "Tan Tan, don't be embarrassed, eat more, and take this box back later - your brother Yan Ping will cause harm to you if you stay here anyway."
His own son can use the word "disaster" when eating fruit, which shows how much trouble Zhang Yanping made.
Song Tan's heart moved.
Before she had any idea, her aunt asked, "Tan Tan, your family will be farming this year, and your parents won't be working in the second half of the year?"
Song Tan nodded and counted on his fingers:
“We need to plant two fields of rice, vegetables, and sunflowers. There are also fungus and white fungus planted on the mountain. The chestnut tree has been slightly pruned this year, and some fish fry will probably be put in the fish pond..."
“We have raised five pigs in the back mountain this year. The New Year pork will definitely be delicious. Auntie, I will give it to you then!”
The aunt was stunned: "Can your family do so much work?"
Song Tan was helpless—all the money had been spent. She wanted to make more money as soon as possible, so she accidentally confiscated it.
“My grandparents are helping out. We haven’t officially planted the seeds yet, so we will be busy for the time being.”
But this is only temporary, and we will have to hire people to work again in two days.
At this moment, there was a movement in the stairwell, and Qiaoqiao’s cheerful voice rang out:
“Brother Yanping, let’s go throw stones!”
“I’m not going. Little kid, I don’t like playing with rocks anymore.”
Zhang Yanping's lazy voice was also mixed with a yawn.
“Brother Yanping, let’s go hide and seek.”
“Qiaoqiao, Brother Yanping, I have grown up now. I can’t hide you anymore.”
“Brother Yanping, let’s go see Peppa Pig.”
“What are you looking at, Peppa Pig? A real man should look at Ultraman!”
besides…
Have you guessed the role of Brother Yan Ping?
