"Look at the store, what store are you looking at?"

"A small shop at the intersection of the county town." Xu Zhao replied.

"Let me see?" Xu's mother looked at Xu Zhao with an unbelievable gaze. She has lived in the countryside since she was born, and she even went to the county town a handful of times. How could she go to the county town to look at the shops and sell things? Woolen cloth?Isn't this nonsense?

Xu Zhao nodded and said, "Yes."

Mother Xu smiled and asked, "Do you think I can do it?"

"Okay."

"Stop talking nonsense." Xu's mother said with a smile: "It's okay for you to farm and harvest wheat, but it's definitely not good for you to watch the store and sell things. I don't know more than twenty characters. How can you watch the store?"

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "But Mom, you are smart and capable."

"Where am I smart and capable?"

"Can settle accounts, talk, and tidy up housework."

"Then how can it compare with going to the county town to sell things?"

"Why can't it? These are much better than selling things. Mom, won't you do me this favor?"

Mother Xu stopped what she was doing and asked, "Xu Zhao, you can't tell the truth, can you?"

"Of course it is true. Why should I tell lies? I really need your help, Mom."

The son opened his mouth and said that he needed help——

Xu's mother was silent for a while. In fact, she was quite afraid of dealing with people in the city. Although the county is a small county, the people in the small county would look down on her as a rural person. She was afraid of embarrassing her son, but his son needs help. As a mother , She couldn't refuse at all, looked at Xu Zhao and said, "Then I'll try it later, if it doesn't sell well, don't blame me."

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "I don't blame you."

"Okay, when you need it later, you call me, and I will take your dad with you. Now light up the fire and start cooking."

"it is good."

Xu Zhao took out a box of matches from the small hole in the stove, took out a matchstick, rubbed the match, lit the matchstick, put it into the stove hole, lit the straw, and looked at the blazing fire in the hole, feeling extremely hot in his heart .

First stabilize Fan Xiaodian, have a guaranteed income, and support his parents and son, so he can try to do something else and earn more money, so that he can buy autumn clothes, winter clothes, and even quilts , so that the winter is more comfortable and warmer, and will not be hungry or cold.

However, before Xu's father and Xu's mother helped to look after the store, he had to discuss with Cui Qingfeng, sort out the goods in the store, and plan what he would do next, before handing it over to Xu's father and Xu's mother.

So the next morning he took Xu Fan and went to Cui's house again. Before leaving, Xu's mother took Xu Zhao and asked Xu Zhao to go to the old Wang's house in the east of the village to shave his head. Xu Zhao didn't want to go to the barber shop in the county to get a bald shaved haircut, and Xu Fan also had a haircut, and then bought a new set of clothes for Xu's mother's request, so Xu's mother let Xu Zhao and Xu Fan leave Nanwan Village.

When he arrived at the county seat, Xu Zhao went to Cui's house first, and asked Cui Qingfeng to watch Fan Xiaodian after he finished his work.

Xu Zhao took Xu Fan to the barber shop for a haircut. The barber shop was very simple, with two mirrors, two chairs, and two tables. The tables were equipped with combs, scissors, clippers, shampoo, and mousse. , but the haircut is still very serious. The haircuts for Xu Zhao and Xu Fan are good. Afterwards, Xu Zhao took Xu Fan to buy clothes.

This time it wasn't for Xu Fan, but for Xu Zhao himself.

Xu Zhao visited two or three clothing stores, and finally bought a pair of white short-sleeved round neck and black pants. He wanted to buy other colors, but none were available. He wanted to find other more fashionable styles, but there were none. What he bought was already very Yes, it cost nearly five yuan in total. I wanted to buy a pair of leather shoes, but the cheapest pair of leather shoes was 25 yuan. Tian Xu's mother would make another pair for him, so she took Xu Fan to Cui's house with her clothes on.

Along the way, Xu Fan kept asking, "Dad, why don't you wear new clothes?"

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "Wash and wear again."

"Then wash it quickly." Xu Fan urged worriedly.

"Okay, I'll wash it when I get to your Uncle Cui's house."

"Dad, you look good in your new clothes!"

"is it?"

"Well, Dad is the prettiest and prettiest in the whole village."

"..."

The son is really good at complimenting others, he is a good-looking man, but he forced him to praise him like a village grass.

Xu Zhao bent down to pick up Xu Fan and went back to Fan Xiaodian.

Cui Qingfeng immediately exclaimed: "Ah, Xu Fan, have you shaved your head?"

"Yeah!" Xu Fan nodded emphatically, begging for compliments.

Cui Qingfeng opened his mouth and said, "Oh, you look so big."

Xu Fan: "..."

Xu Zhao: "..."

"Xu Zhao, you cut it nicely." Cui Qingfeng didn't dare to look directly at such a handsome Xu Zhao, and turned to sort the newspapers.

"I also think I'm pretty." After Xu Zhao finished speaking with a smile, he greeted Cui Qingfeng, carried Xu Fan back to Cui's house to make popsicles, washed the new clothes by the way, and hung them in the yard of Cui's house until The popsicles were ready, and he took Xu Fan to get the cigarettes after delivering the popsicles. After taking the cigarettes, he went to the noodle factory to load the noodles. When they came out of the noodle factory, both father and son had a lot of flour on them.

It happened that Xu Zhao had new clothes and they had dried, so Xu Zhao changed into them.

"Wow, Dad, watch it!" Xu Fan's eyes lit up, and his mouth opened to look at Xu Zhao: "Daddy, watch it well!"

Xu Zhao couldn't help but picked up Xu Fan, kissed Xu Fan's tender and chubby face, and said, "Why are you so good at bragging about Dad?"

"What do you mean blowing daddy?"

"It's just—it's okay, let's go to Fan Xiaodian to sell popsicles."

Xu Fan stroked his stomach and said, "But, Dad, I'm hungry and want to eat rice cracker candies."

Rice Krispies is a traditional snack. The main raw materials are glutinous rice, white sugar and very few peanuts. Because there is no rice in the county, this snack is very expensive. Many people like to eat it, but few Personally, he was willing to buy it, a small piece cost fifty cents, but Xu Fan wanted to eat it, so Xu Zhao bought a small piece, and then carried Xu Fan into Fan's small shop.

Outside the store, Cui Qingfeng was giving popsicles to people, and without looking back, he said, "Xu Zhao, where have you been?"

"I'm going to buy a rice cracker candy for Xu Fan."

"The third child really likes to eat!" Cui Qingfeng said to Xu Fan, and then turned to Xu Zhao: "Xu Zhao, it's time for my dad to take medicine, I have to go back and see if he has taken it, or my uncle will come back later." , will scold me."

"Okay, you can go back." Xu Zhao replied.

"I'll be right back."

"It's okay, you go first."

"Row."

Cui Qingfeng put the small quilt on the foam box, turned around and didn't see Xu Zhao, but Xu Fan lying on the window, holding rice flower candy with two small hands, like a puppy gnawing a bone with its head down. His face was so fleshy, Cui Qingfeng thought about it, went up and twisted it and said, "Yummy mouth", and then ran away after twisting, listening to Xu Fan screaming after running all the way.

After Xu Fan yelled, he yelled loudly: "Dad! Uncle Cui is a villain! He screwed me!"

"Where is the twist?" Xu Zhao picked up the penny on the ground and asked.

"Face!" Xu Fan said angrily.

"It's okay, don't let him screw it up next time, and enjoy the rice cracker candy."

When it came to eating, Xu Fan's anger disappeared automatically: "Well, the rice cracker candy is delicious."

Xu Fan continued to eat rice cracker candies.

Xu Zhao sat next to him, thinking about things while selling popsicles.

The small shop of Fan was doing well, and there were always people coming to sell things. When it was almost noon, there were finally no one there. Xu Zhao tidied up and was about to hand over the shop to Cui Qingfeng. The black car stopped in front of the small shop.

Xu Fan immediately became excited, his little body moved, and said, "Dad! Dad! Look! It's a big car! Here comes the big car!"

Xu Zhao said, "Well, don't get excited, don't get excited, it's a car."

"It's a big car!"

"..." All right, all right, let's call it Dache from now on.

Xu Zhao lazily argued with Xu Fan and looked at the black car.

The door of the black car was opened, and Cui Dingchen walked out tall and straight in casual short-sleeved and long trousers, and walked to the window of Fan Xiaodian.

"Second Master Cui!" Xu Fan shouted positively.

"..." It was Second Master Cui again, Xu Zhao could clearly feel the line of Cui Dingchen's jaw tightening a little.

"Second Master Cui, you are back!" Xu Fan was very enthusiastic.

"En." Cui Dingchen replied lightly.

"Second Master Cui, you came back in a big car."

"En." Cui Dingchen responded without emotion.

"Cui—"

Xu Zhao reached out and gave Xu Fan a popsicle, because he was afraid that eating too many popsicles would be bad for children, so Xu Zhao banned Xu Fan from eating popsicles a long time ago. Shit, so Xu Fan hasn't eaten a popsicle for half a month. When he saw the popsicle, his eyes immediately widened. Holding the popsicle, he sat on the small stool by the door and stared at the black car while flipping the popsicle.

Xu Zhao looked at Cui Dingchen with embarrassment, and called out, "Uncle, you're back."

Cui Dingchen hummed and said, "Bring me a pack of cigarettes."

"What brand?"

"Green pine."

Xu Zhao asked, "Uncle, didn't you smoke the big front door before?"

Cui Dingchen raised his eyes, stared at Xu Zhao deeply and said, "Then let's go to the front door."

"Row."

Xu Zhao gave Cui Dingchen a bag of Daqianmen.

Cui Dingchen asked, "How much?"

Xu Zhao said, "Fifty cents."

Cui Dingchen took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Xu Zhao.

After Xu Zhao took it, he turned around to look for some change, but in this small shop full of one cents, two cents, one dimes, and two dimes everywhere, ten yuan is still quite a denomination. Xu Zhao opened the change box, and added the change to the There is no ten dollars together.

He originally had enough change, but he bought clothes and rice cracker candies, so it was not enough, so he returned the ten yuan to Cui Dingchen, and said apologetically, "Uncle, there is not enough money, so I can't find it."

Cui Dingchen put away the ten yuan, nodded, and said, "I owe you fifty cents."

"Okay." Xu Zhao smiled.

Xu Zhao always felt that Xu Fan healed with a clear smile, but he didn't know that Xu Fan healed with his clarity, and there was a faint dimple at the corner of his mouth, which was very beautiful.

Cui Dingchen glanced at Xu Zhao, then picked up the Daqianmen cigarette, suddenly looked at Xu Zhao, and said, "The new clothes are very nice."
