Brother, you will grow taller

In the vegetable market.

All kinds of hawking sounds are endless.

"Boss, here's a pound of cabbage sum."

"What's up, are your vegetables made of gold or grown directly on gold?"

"There is no food now, these are all vegetables from the greenhouse."

"My name must be accurate. I have done business with you so many times, and I will still lie to you."

"Do you want it if you like it?"

Lu You was holding several red and black plastic bags in his hand, looking around.

The world is very peaceful, there is no epidemic, and the economy is developing normally.

This is the conclusion he came to after going around the market for several times and combining it with his own memory. This means that you don't have to worry about going out in the future and can walk around with confidence.

Lu You originally wanted to take off the mask to free himself, but the smell of the wet market was still a bit unpleasant, so it was better to keep it as it was and continue to wear it.

While walking, Lu You came to a shop selling fresh beef. The boss and his wife were busy, and there were several customers around who were carefully selecting beef and pressing it with their fingers from time to time.

Lu You glanced at the beef on display and was too lazy to look for it himself, so he asked: "Boss, are there any beef briskets for sale?"

…

the other side.

After finishing breakfast, Tang Wan and her mother Zhao Huijuan walked side by side to the vegetable market.

As they walked, Tang Wan put her arm on Zhao Huijuan's arm.

I felt like my daughter had something up her sleeve, so she asked, "The other day I slept until ten o'clock and didn't get up. Why did you get up so early today and come here to buy groceries with me?"

"Really?" Tang Wan said nonsensically without a blushing face, "It must be because relatives came over a few days ago, and I wasn't very energetic. I feel better today, so I'm here to help."

"Should it be? This is an excuse to lie to your teacher. Do you still want to lie to your mother?" Zhao Huijuan directly exposed her little trick.

"I know your life better than you. I make ice cream, jelly, and watermelon every day. Does this also call in relatives?"

"Ouch~ Mom~" Tang Wan shook Zhao Huijuan's arm and said coquettishly: "Is it important whether relatives are really here? What's important is that I will accompany you to buy groceries."

Zhao Huijuan didn't want to follow her lead, so she pushed her hand away and said, "Come on, please tell me what's the purpose of following you."

"Ahem." Logan stopped holding it and said, "Isn't today the 28th? It's the day when the results of the high school entrance examination are released."

"so what?"

"I just wanted to have something good for lunch today to celebrate my good grades."

"Open the champagne in advance? Won't the results be notified by text message after 12 noon? What if I fail the test? Besides, didn't I just have a good meal a few days ago, and why are you here today?"

"Don't worry about my results. I have never failed, so there must be no problem. And the celebration I gave to my brother a few days ago is for me today, so it can't be the same."

"Is that okay~" Logan said while shaking his mother's hand.

Zhao Huijuan had goosebumps and quickly took her hand out of her daughter's arms: "You are so old, you still act like a child, don't you blush?"

Tang Wan was still thinking about doing it again, but Zhao Huijuan couldn't bear it anymore and kept avoiding her daughter's hand.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you now. You tell me what you want to eat. Let me tell you in advance that it can't be too expensive."

Tang Wan's eyes seemed to be shining brightly, and he said excitedly: "I want to eat spiced beef offal. Hairy tripe, golden tripe, beef tendons, beef intestines, beef balls, tofu puffs, white radish, and braised eggs!"

"Just go to the stall owned by the family downstairs and buy the offal. I'll transfer it to them later. Let's make a deal first. You have to go home and help with whatever you buy. Don't get into the room as soon as you get home. "

"OK!" Logan gestured, then walked briskly towards the depths of the market.

Looking at Tang Wan walking away, Zhao Huijuan had a headache. Her daughter is beautiful, sensible, has a good figure, and has good grades. She is just a bit lazy at home, not in shape, and she also likes to eat.

Tang Wan quickly found his neighbor's stall based on the identifiers of each district.

As soon as I got closer, I saw a young man wearing a mask, standing in front of the stall, holding several black and red clinker bags in his hand. You can roughly see that one bag contains onions, ginger and garlic, and one bag contains green onions, ginger and garlic. It's vegetables, and a white radish, and the others should be some meat, I'm not sure exactly.

The boy was facing the stall, wearing a mask on his face. In addition, there was insufficient light in the market, so Logan couldn't see the boy's face clearly.

This boy seems to be younger than me. He has already gone out to buy groceries by himself. Is there any difficulty?

The young man seemed to be aware of the girl's gaze and slowly turned his head, their eyes converging in the air.

The young man has long eyes and sparse eyebrows, his eyes are clean and translucent, like a windless lake, clear and tranquil. Dress appropriately and have a gentle and peaceful temperament.

Even though the mask covered most of his face, Tang Wan still subconsciously felt that this boy's true appearance behind the mask must be shocking, but his height was a little awkward, a little shorter than himself.

…

"Boss, do you have beef brisket?"

The boss didn't seem to hear Lu You's words and was minding his own business.

The landlady raised her head and looked at Lu You, feeling a little weird when she saw his outfit.

"Yes, pretty boy, how much do you want?"

"Hmm..." Lu You thought for a while and continued: "One and a half pounds of white beef brisket, more fascia and less meat, and then half a pound of chest meat, preferably leaner."

After listening to Lu You's words, the proprietress took a large piece of beef brisket and breast meat from the audience and placed it in front of the two of them.

After some discussion, they each determined the parts they needed, and the lady boss said

"Just wait a moment. The boss will finish processing what he has on hand very quickly. It will only take two or three minutes."

Lu You nodded slightly to show that he understood. Just as he was thinking about something, he felt someone's eyes staring at him, and turned to look where the eyes came from. Then, a pair of bright, jade-like eyes broke into his sight.

The owner of Baoyu is a girl with smooth skin, tall figure, a ponytail on the back of her head, and a few strands of hair scattered naturally on both sides of her cheeks.

The face shape is a standard oval face with a little baby fat. The forehead is smooth and full, and the eyebrows are like willow leaves, natural and clean. The eyes are slightly slender, and the slightly drooping ends of the eyes seem to have a hint of charm. Her nose is small and delicate, her rosy red lips are just the right size, and her cheeks are as pink as peach blossoms.

With picturesque eyebrows and pretty face, this is her!

Lu You lost consciousness for a moment and sighed inwardly. The girl in front of him looks exactly according to his aesthetics.

The two quickly withdrew their gazes.

It's not that Tang Wan doesn't like good-looking boys, it's just that now she wants to get the spiced beef offal for lunch. No matter how good-looking a boy is, he can't be as good as a bite to eat.

Lu You sighed, but had no other thoughts. For him, admiring a girl who is too beautiful is enough, just like the beauty of nature. It is not advisable to think too much, as it is easy to be sentimental.

After looking away, Lu You continued to wait for his brisket and beef, while Tang Wan greeted with a slightly excited tone, "Uncle Liu, hello Aunt Fang!"

When the proprietress saw the girl, she was surprised and said, "It's Wanwan. Why are you here to buy groceries today? Where is your mother?"

"My mother is buying groceries elsewhere. I have something good to do today and I need to buy more, so I'm here to help get it."

"Anything good again? Your brother just got into the top ten in the province. What's going on today?"

"The results of the high school entrance examination are out today, and we have already booked the top ten in the city!"

"Awesome! You two brothers and sisters are both good at studying. Come on, if you want to buy something today, auntie will give you a discount. Think of it as a celebration for you."

"Thank you Aunt Fang. You're welcome then. I'll order some tripe..."

Um? Can I get a discount based on my high school entrance examination results?

Lu You, who was listening silently, immediately spoke

"Boss Boss, I also got my results today, can you give me a discount too?"

"You also have results? What are the results? The final exam of junior high school? I remember that the exams haven't started yet in junior high school, right?" Logan asked curiously when the boy spoke.

Lu You frowned and said angrily: "How come you are talking the opposite of your appearance? Although you are taller than me, it doesn't mean that I am a junior high school student, right? After all, I am also 1.7 meters tall and 1.8 meters tall. ."

Logan now felt that this boy might even be a primary school student, exaggerating and speaking harshly.

"I'm only 1.64 meters tall. You're not taller than me. How dare you say you're 1.7 meters tall?"

Lu You's pupils were shaking.

Hasn't the world become taller? The price for me becoming handsome is to trade for my height?

No wonder the shower head is so hard to take off, no wonder the dust cover on the refrigerator is so hard to get, it's because I've become shorter!

It was difficult for Lu You to accept this fact. He was less than 1.6 meters tall. As a boy, he was probably close to being disabled.

Seeing the shocked and unacceptable expression on the boy's face, Logan quickly comforted him: "It's okay. Some boys develop late. They don't start growing until high school. You still have a chance, so don't worry too much."

Her words were like sharp knives, piercing into Lu You's heart.

"If you can speak, speak more."

Tang Wan did not hear the words, and then comforted: "Sister is already a high school student. It is normal to be taller than you, and there are also a few boys in my third grade class who are similar to you. Brother, relax, eat more, and exercise more , you can also grow taller."

younger brother! ?

Lu You suddenly suffered a myocardial infarction. For the first time in his two lifetimes, he was called younger brother by a female high school student.

He said quietly: "Sister, is there a possibility that my brother is actually 15 years old, and the high school entrance examination results came out today, and he might be your classmate in September?"

What Logan wanted to say was held in his heart for a while, and he felt awkward, his eyes wandering around.

"Yes...really?"

Seeing the awkward atmosphere between the two, the boss's wife quickly poked her husband with her hand.

The boss immediately came to the rescue: "Pretty boy, your brisket and beef have been cut. Total is 83. I'll give you a zero, 80 is fine." Then he put the bag in front of Lu You.

Lu You glanced at the boss and replied "Thank you", then picked up the plastic bag, scanned the code, turned around and left without looking back.

Tang Wan looked at the boy going away and muttered in a low voice: "I'm wearing a mask, so no one can see what you look like. You're still covering yourself up so tightly when you're shopping for groceries, how can you not see the light of day?"

…

Lu You quickly left the vegetable market, found his little electric donkey, put all kinds of fresh vegetables in his hand into the front basket of the car, started the motor, and quickly left this sad place.

Being called young by a girl who suits his mood is even more uncomfortable than failing to pass the paper in his previous life.
