Tianming Chen returned home early this Friday morning. Because his parents were going back to the countryside to visit their relatives on Saturday and Sunday, his mother had called Tianming Chen a few days ago and told him to go back on Friday night to take care of the grocery store that supported the whole family.
This store was opened by his parents after the factory collapsed more than ten years ago. It was the lifeblood of Chen Tianming's parents and the store that allowed him to finish university. Therefore, Chen Tianming always wanted to earn a lot of money in the future so that his parents could live a happy life. 'I'll definitely be successful in the future,' Chen Tianming thought to himself.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Tianming, who had applied some medicine, slowly went downstairs to open the door of his store. There were many wholesale departments now, and there were also several supermarkets. Business would not be so good. It was better to read Jin Yong's novel to kill time.
However, Chen Tianming was still lucky. He had been driving for almost an hour and had already sold things that cost dozens of yuan. It seemed that his father would not scold him for only knowing how to eat and not cook when he came back the day after tomorrow.
"Comrade, do you have 50 cents worth of instant noodles?”A voice interrupted Chen Tianming, who was engrossed in reading a novel.
Seriously, who was it? He was engrossed in the show. Would he come earlier or later? In the book, Wei Xiaobao was flirting with Princess Xiao Mu and Sister Fang Yi! Fang Yi was the one who hit Little Treasure. The little princess was called Little Treasure, and Little Treasure was the only one who was delusional. This Little Treasure is really amazing. He has seven wives. If it were me, I would be lucky. Chen Tianming was indulging in his own self-satisfaction.
"Comrade, do you have any instant noodles that cost fifty cents?”Seeing that Chen Tianming did not answer, the voice increased its volume.
Chen Tianming raised his head helplessly. Sigh, there was no other way. It seemed that he had to sort it out. Wait, what? In this era, there are still people who are called 'comrades'? It seemed like "comrade" was referring to something gay.
When Chen Tianming saw this, he was a little stunned. However, this time, it was not the kind of daze he had when he saw He Tao. This uncle should be called uncle. He might be in his sixties or seventies with a youthful face and white hair, but he looked younger and healthier. There was a string of Buddhist beads hanging around his neck. It was so strange. Everyone else wore Buddhist beads on their hands now, so why was he hanging such a large string around his neck? How strange!
"Hey, this big, big uncle, I'll just call you big uncle. We don't have 50 cents worth of instant noodles now. It's already one yuan.”Tianming Chen said. In fact, the instant noodles were sold for 50 cents, but how could he earn money if he didn't sell them for a dollar? Chen Tianming had to support his family, so he could only make black snacks.
"I see. Sigh, but I only have fifty cents on me. It seems that I will starve tonight.”The uncle with the prayer beads sighed.
When Chen Tianming heard his uncle's words, he felt a little sorry for him. It was inevitable that the economy would be bad when he was out alone. Forget it, he would just treat it as helping the poor and not earning that fifty cents. Chen Tianming said,"Uncle, how about this? I'll sell it to you for fifty cents."”After Chen Tianming finished speaking, he felt particularly comfortable in his heart.
"You're really a good person, comrade. Thank you.”First Uncle took the instant noodles and handed over fifty cents.
"Comrade, do you have any hot water?" First Uncle suddenly thought of boiling water.
Chen Tianming really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Forget it, he would be a good person to the end. He would just boil the water. However, he still teased his uncle and said,"Uncle, should I lend you a lunch box?”
"Yes, yes, that's even better!”Uncle said happily.
"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute.”Chen Tianming cursed himself, but he had no choice. He had said it himself, so he could only bear it.
After a while, the uncle who was wearing the prayer beads finished the pitifully small packet of instant noodles. The eldest uncle wiped his mouth and said,"I didn't expect this instant noodles to taste so good."”
"No way, why would you say that?”Tianming Chen almost fell down when he heard that. Fortunately, he was sitting on a stool. From his words, it seemed that he had never eaten instant noodles before. Such a poor person did not even have the money to buy instant noodles. Could it be that he had picked up the food he usually ate? Thinking of this, Chen Tianming pitied his uncle even more.
"As long as it's delicious." Tianming Chen said with a smile. If he had known earlier, he would not have taken his uncle's money. That way, he could have eaten an extra packet. However, Chen Tianming was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"Comrade, you are a good person.”Uncle said as he looked at Chen Tianming. "I'm a physiognomist. Let me help you take a look.”First Uncle stretched out his hand.
" He's a fortune teller." Tianming Chen cursed in his heart again. He had thought that he was a poor man who picked up trash, but he actually knew how to read fortunes. However, he heard that such people were usually liars. Chen Tianming didn't want to fall for this trick and said,""Then should I tell you my birth characters, uncle?”
"I don't want this. Just stretch out your hand for me to see.”First Uncle shook his head.
"I see. Do you need money?”Chen Tianming did not want to suffer a loss.
"No need, just treat it as me repaying you for the fifty cents.”Uncle shook his head again.
"If you don't want money, I can show it to you. It's boring sitting here anyway.”Chen Tianming thought. He stretched out his hand in front of his uncle.
First Uncle opened Chen Tianming's palm and looked at it for a while. Then, he looked at Chen Tianming from left to right and suddenly smiled…
His uncle's smile made Chen Tianming giddy. He stood up and asked,""Uncle, what are you laughing at?"
"I've never thought that I've never seen anyone with such a good character like you in my life," said Uncle happily. Kid, let me tell you, you're not a fish in a pond.”
When Chen Tianming heard this, he felt that his uncle was too much of a conman. That was what most conmen would say. The "comrade" had become "kid". Chen Tianming said in disbelief," Uncle, don't lie to me. What do you mean by 'not in the pond?' Didn't you see it yourself? I'm selling instant noodles now!"”
"You don't believe me?"”Seeing that Chen Tianming didn't believe him, his uncle touched Chen Tianming's hand and shoulder and said,""Did you have a serious illness ten years ago, and your health hasn't been very good since then?”
When Chen Tianming heard this, he was a little skeptical and said,"Uncle, how did you know?”Tianming Chen had indeed been seriously ill ten years ago. At that time, his parents thought that he would not live, but he still survived, but his health was not very good. Especially after being bitten by the insects that day, his body was even weirder.
"Sigh, why don't you believe me?”Hearing Chen Tianming's words, his uncle knew that he didn't believe him and was a little angry.
"Do you have any other proof?”Chen Tianming was still skeptical.
Uncle thought for a moment and said to Chen Tianming,"Give me a packet of instant noodles and a bottle of mineral water.”
