    ?

    Two or three o'clock in the afternoon is the most deserted time in the vegetable market, and many stall owners have gone home to take a nap.  Only five or six people were standing in front of Yan Heping's fish stall.

    It's been a long time since I saw Yan Xi come to help at his father's fish stall. Although she is married now, her beauty has not changed at all. It is a little more elegant and calm than before, and the corners of her eyes are faintly melancholy.  It is more captivating and more attractive.

    It's really hard to imagine, such a bright and beautiful person, squatting on the ground with a fish, disembowelled, and his hands are bloody.  But in front of Yan Fuzi's fish stall, this is a real picture.  Faced with such a scene, some people appreciate it, some people feel distressed, and some people gloat.

    Zhou Zhou quietly stood in front of the fish stall. When a few customers saw her, they involuntarily stepped aside, feeling that a good show was about to begin.

    Yan Xi killed a fish, washed off the blood on his hands, put the fish in a bag, and saw Zhou Zhou when he handed it to the customer.  She smiled generously: "Come to buy fish?"

    Zhou Zhou looked at her hair hanging down to her forehead, the fish scales and blood stains on her leather apron that had just been killed, and her ten fingers turned white from being in contact with the water for a long time.  Looking down at his own skirt, a sense of superiority arises spontaneously.

    "Is there mandarin fish?"

    "Yes, I have."

    "Weigh a mandarin fish for me and kill it."

    "Okay." Yan Xi caught a mandarin fish, weighed it, and said to Zhou Zhou, "Fifty-two yuan."

    The person next to him opened his mouth slightly, as expected of Yi Jingchen's wife, a fish was fifty-two yuan, and he bought it without blinking an eye.

    Yan Xi took the knife, squatted on the ground and began to kill the fish. The people around watched her disembowel the fish, and felt that she had changed from a fairy to Sun Erniang in a second.

    Someone joked with her: "Yanxi, you didn't run a bun shop in your last life, did you?"

    Yan Xi smiled and said: "You guessed it right, it's on the Shizipo."

    Everyone laughed, joking with each other, but Zhou Zhou stood aside, completely speechless.  The scene of being surrounded by people two days ago is still vivid, giving her an illusion that she has become the center of the world, at least the center of Qingquan Town, but in the end, she changed the venue and was still an airman.

    Yan Xi handed her the killed fish, she took the fish and said, "How is the business recently?"

    Yan Xi said: "It's okay."

    Zhou Zhou smiled, and said eccentrically: "It must be good to think about it. A canteen that is just a surprise is probably worth a month's profit of other stalls."

    Yan Xi was slightly taken aback, she came to the fish stall to help out for the first time today, and she didn't know anything about her father's surprise delivery.

    It happened that Xiao Zhou came, Yan Xi asked in a low voice: "Are you delivering surprises?"

    Xiao Zhou was at a loss: "No."

    Zhou Zhou said: "He's really thoughtful, he deliberately concealed his real identity for fear of embarrassing you."

    Xiao Zhou patted his head and whispered to Yan Xi: "There is such a person who comes to pick up the goods every day and asks for a lot. But he didn't say that he was pleasantly surprised. The boss and I always thought he was a restaurant owner.  "

    Yan Xi understood Zhou Zhou's reason for coming, buying fish was fake, but finding fault was real.

    She smiled and said to Zhou Zhou: "Go back and tell Yi Jingchen that we are open for business, and if someone takes care of our business, we will naturally welcome it, there is no need to hide it. By the way, the construction site in the east of the town has started  If you want fish in the cafeteria on the construction site, please think of us more. And after the construction on Hanyu Mountain starts, we will take care of it. We promise to give it to him at the market price.¡±

    Zhou Zhou's face turned pale with anger: "I thought that a proud person like you would never eat the food that comes from you."

    Yan Xi sighed: "A penny kills a hero, and a scholar has to bend his waist for five buckets of rice! What's more, we don't steal or grab, and we do business seriously, so how can we count it as cheap food? But you, Zhou Zhou, you must  Do you want to find self-esteem and glory in the eyes and words of others?"

    "What do you mean?"

    Yan Xi looked at Zhou Zhou with pity: "You can understand what it means, that's what it means."

    The person watching the show standing on the side covered his mouth and secretly laughed.

    Yan Xi said: "Is there anything else you need? If you don't need it, please let me go, someone else will buy it."

    Zhou Zhou said, "Weigh some more eels for me."

    Xiao Zhou grabbed five eels from the basin, weighed them, and said, "Seventy yuan, do you want to kill them?"

    Zhou Zhou said: "Yes, help me make an eel's back."

    "Okay." Xiao Zhou took out a wooden board with a nail driven into it.

      He was about to put the rice field eel on it, when Zhou Zhou said: "You are not careful in your work, let her help me."

    This was obviously going to embarrass Yanxi. Xiao Zhou put down the eel and said angrily: "I don't work carefully, do you know how many I kill a day? In the whole vegetable market, find someone who is more careful than me? Zhou Zhou  , fellow countrymen, don't go too far!"

    Zhou Zhou looked at Yan Xi: "If you want to kill, I won't."

    Yan Xi said to Xiao Zhou: "Let me come. You greet other guests."

    "Yanxi!" Xiao Zhou couldn't understand her despicable appearance, and stood there, not intending to give way.

    Yan Xi pushed him lightly, grabbed a ricefield eel, stuck the head of the ricefield eel into a nail to fix it, then cut open his abdomen, and slowly chipped off its bones.  A rice field eel was processed, and his hands were already covered in blood.  A bloody smell rushed into his nostrils, and Yan Xi felt his stomach was overwhelmed, so he quickly washed his hands and ran to the side.

    Xiao Zhou said, "Let me do it."

    Yan Xi shook his hand: "It's okay."

    Zhou Zhou felt that the people around the fish stall were slowly standing aside, as if they saw some great personage, and they automatically moved out of the way.  She turned around suspiciously, and saw that Yi Jingchen was already standing beside her.  My heart skipped a beat, I don't know when he came, and how much he heard the conversation between himself and Yan Xi.

    She smiled strongly and calmly: "Why are you here?"

    Yi Jingchen said: "I went home, but there was no one at home, and you didn't answer the phone call. Then I called my mother and said you came to the vegetable market."

    "Mom asked me to buy some vegetables, and Dad said that I would have a drink with you in the evening."

    "Have you bought it yet?"

    "It will be ready soon. Yanxi is helping to kill the rice field eel? Don't you like eating eel back? You are helping me with it."

    Xiao Zhou has already killed the fish for another customer who bought fish, collected the money, and threw the money into the cash box.  Hearing Zhou Zhou's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.  Seeing that Yan Xi's hands were covered with blood, he said, "I should do it?"

    "No, it will be fine soon."

    Yan Xi put the killed rice field eel into a plastic belt and handed it to Zhou Zhou: "It's a total of 123 yuan, thank you."

    Zhou Zhou was about to reach out to pick up the bag of eels, but found that Yi Jingchen had already stretched out his hand.  She stared at Yi Jingchen nervously, and found that his expression was normal, and his actions of seeing off and picking up seemed no different from other customers.  Slightly relieved, he took Yi Jingchen's arm with one hand, and smiled at Yan Xi: "Thank you, Yan Xi."

    Yan Xi was in a daze for a moment. They had known each other for so many years, but she didn't know that she was still a very good actor.  She laughed together: "Thank you, this is my duty."

    I feel that I am also a very good actor.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
