Chapter 150 Going to the market
It was already evening when Jiang Yang returned from his grandparents' house.
I was speechless all night, and the next day came in the blink of an eye.
Today is New Year's Eve, and today is the new year.
On the day of Thirty, the main thing to prepare is the New Year’s Eve dinner. On this day, everyone will carefully make the most delicious New Year’s Eve dinner.
Early in the morning, Uncle Jiangyang got up and rode his worn-out motorcycle to the market.
In Jiangyang’s hometown, the market is divided into days, and the places where the market is different on each day. However, there are also special days, such as the day of the thirty, which means that every place can go to the market.
Vendors of all sizes bring New Year’s goods to the market without having to hawk, so people will naturally buy them.
When I go out to work for a year, most people will not be stingy with money when they go home for the New Year.
There are countless New Year pictures sold on the street. Some sell Spring Festival couplets, door gods, and New Year pictures. Some set up a small stall in front of their own shops; some are placed on the spot with plastic film, and placed on them stacked.
When people choose Spring Festival couplets, they don’t care too much about the artistic conception or neatness. What they care most about is the meaning of Spring Festival couplets. As long as the couplets write good words and blessings, they will naturally be happy.
Secondly, I also care about the size of Spring Festival couplets. Even if I have no money, I will buy a pair of Spring Festival couplets that can be supported by the largest range of Spring Festival couplets I can put on in front of the living room.
Jiangyang hasn't been to the market for a year, and this New Year's Eve is different from usual. On weekdays, young people go out to work, and what they leave behind are elderly people and some people who rely on the fields to eat. In this way, there are not many people who go to the market on weekdays, and they are sparse.
During the Chinese New Year, people who go out to work will go home for the New Year, and the number of people going to the market increased rapidly, and the market was very lively. In addition, the festive atmosphere during the Chinese New Year, the feeling of going to the market is naturally different.
After his uncle left, Jiang Yang also went to the market with Jiang Xiaoyu.
The market is very small, just two streets. If you walk in a hurry, you can finish it in less than ten minutes.
The streets are lined with commercial and residential buildings, which are uneven. This was built by them at that time and there was no unified planning, so some are taller and some are shorter, and even the styles of buildings are different.
Generally, there is a store downstairs. Of course, not every household sells things, and some people just use it for their own use.
A few years ago, there were only a few stores in this place, selling some miscellaneous small things. Now there are several supermarkets, although they are not big, they can meet people's daily needs.
Jiang Yang and Jiang Xiaoyu were walking on the street together, and neither of them wanted to buy anything. They just wanted to go out for a walk, one was to miss and the other was to go out for a walk.
Just as they were chatting while walking, a voice interrupted their chat: "Xiaoyu!"
Jiang Xiaoyu looked over and saw an old classmate. Unlike Jiang Yang, Jiang Xiaoyu Primary School was studied in this village school, so she didn't feel strange when she met an old classmate at the market.
"Yang Qian?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked in disbelief.
"Yeah." The other party nodded quickly, looking very happy that Jiang Xiaoyu could recognize her.
"Wow! You have changed so much that I can't recognize you in a pretty way." Jiang Xiaoyu said exaggeratedly.
"No! You are as beautiful as ever!" Yang Qian said in a compliment.
Jiang Xiaoyu was really surprised. Yang Qian was not beautiful in the past. Not only did she look fat, but she also had freckles on her face. Now Yang Qian is tall, big, and small, and she can’t see any freckles when she put on makeup on her face. She is dressed very fashionable. She is really a goddess-level beauty.
Yang Qian, who was standing beside her, was also looking at Jiang Xiaoyu. Although Jiang Xiaoyu was not dressed well, she could not hide her beauty. Then she looked at Jiang Yang again, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Jiang Yang looks very good, his muscles are not exaggerated, he is over 1.7 meters tall, and his appearance is not bad, so he deserves the title of handsome guy.
"Your boyfriend?" Yang Qian said to Jiang Xiaoyu.
"You talk about him? No, this is my brother." Jiang Xiaoyu pointed at Jiang Yang and said.
"Your brother? Why haven't you seen him before?" Yang Qian said in surprise.
"He went out at a very young age, and it's normal that you haven't seen him before." Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"Oh~ That's it! Xiaoyu, what good brother do you have? Don't introduce it?" Yang Qian glanced at Jiang Yang and teased Jiang Xiaoyu.
"What? Have you fallen in love with it? Let me tell you, my brother is single!" Jiang Xiaoyu said with a blink of an eye.
"Is that true?" Yang Qian said undeniably, and at the same time threw a charming look at Jiang Yang.
After chatting for a few more words, they separated. Before leaving, Yang Qian asked Jiang Yang for WeChat.
After Yang Qian walked away, Jiang Yang, who had never spoken throughout the whole process, finally spoke: "Jiang Xiaoyu, do you have a good relationship with that Yang Qian? Just sold me like that!"
"Not good!" Jiang Xiaoyu replied casually.
"What about you?" Jiang Yang was puzzled.
"Isn't this worry that you can't find a girlfriend? If you look at each other, I can accept it, right?" Jiang Xiaoyu said.
Jiang Yang rolled his eyes and said, "You are still worried about me, think about yourself first!"
"Stupid brat, are you looking for death?" Jiang Xiaoyu said with a slap on Jiang Yang's back.
"But you should be careful. As far as I know, Yang Qian is not simple. You can play with her. Don't really get caught in it, otherwise you will be eaten without any residue. Don't blame your sister for not reminding you." Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"Are you women all plastic relationships? They were talking and laughing just now, like a good friend I haven't seen for many years. I just said this in a blink of an eye." Jiang Yang complained.
"Don't say to me, believe it or not, then Yang Qian turned around and said to me the same way. This kind of thing is normal, what's the point of making a fuss?" Jiang Xiaoyu said.
Jiang Yang was unable to complain, so he did not continue this topic.
After visiting the market, Jiang Yang and Jiang Xiaoyu returned home. At this time, Uncle Jiang Yang had already purchased the ingredients for the New Year’s Eve dinner and was now catching a very important ingredient - fish!
Fish on the New Year’s Eve dinner are essential, which means there are fish every year. Carp will also choose carp because carp leaps on the dragon gate! Everyone is looking forward to the coming year meeting, everything will go well, wealth will be abundant, and good health, so every detail reflects this beautiful meaning.
After Jiang Yang came back, he was not idle, but went to help fish.
In the past, fishing required a large net to catch all the fish in the pond, then put the small fish into the pond and pick up the big fish.
There is now a net called a net called a net. It is a very small net and the wire that forms the net is very thin. You just need to put the net into the fish pond and then use a bamboo rig to hit the water surface. After the fish are frightened, they will be trapped on the net.
This kind of net set has an advantage, that is, you don’t have to worry about catching too many fish. Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the types of fish you catch rely entirely on luck!
Fortunately, I was lucky today. The fish I caught happened to have a carp, about three or four kilograms, and it looked quite large.
