Chapter 398: The old popcorn machine in the market(1/2)
In the hotel.
Li You has already prepared the dishes for himself, Ye Shengge, and Lin Xiao to eat in the evening.
Three dishes and one soup, spicy crayfish, Longjing shrimp, steamed mandarin fish, and tomato and egg soup are all Lin Xiao's favorite foods.
Eat early tonight. Lin Xiao will go back early after eating.
Li You has already called Lin Zhonghai.
On the phone, Lin Zhonghai thanked Lin Xiao repeatedly and said that Li You was really good to Lin Xiao.
Li You said that Lin Xiao finally came back from summer vacation and it was time for a meal.
In addition, of course Li You also expressed his gratitude to Lin Zhonghai for the chestnuts he sent. Lin Zhonghai said that a little wild chestnut is nothing.
Ling Xiaoru went back to her hometown, so she won't come over tonight.
It’s time to eat.
Lin Xiao was very happy when she saw the food on the table, and finally ate something here again.
After eating slowly, it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Lin Xiao is going back.
Li You took out two packing boxes.
One packaging box contains a serving of Longjing shrimps. The other packaging box contains half a braised chicken and some braised chicken feet.
"Take it back to your grandparents to eat." Li You said to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao waved her hands repeatedly and said she would not take it.
Li You directly tied the packing box to the rear rack of Lin Xiao's bicycle.
When Lin Xiao saw this, he had no choice but to express his gratitude to Li You.
Then he waved goodbye to Li You and Ye Shengge.
"Ride slowly and pay attention to safety. Give me a call when you get home." Li You said.
"Okay! Goodbye, boss! Goodbye, Sister Ye!"
"Goodbye!"
Li You and Ye Shengge watched Lin Xiao disappear from sight on her bicycle and walked into the store.
Ye Shengge went upstairs, and Li You walked into the kitchen.
He has to be busy for at least another two hours.
Forty minutes later, Lin Xiao called and said she had arrived home.
Forty minutes, which is about the same as Li You estimated. It’s not dark yet.
Lin Xiao arrived home safely, and Li You felt relieved.
……
The next day.
There is a market in Wenxian Town today.
Ye Shengge got up at eight o'clock in the morning. She planned to go to the market for a walk.
It has been a long time since she went to the market during the market.
Li You originally planned to go to town today to refuel his motorcycle.
There is a gas station in the town.
Then just go to town with Ye Shengge early.
Li You was also going. Ye Shengge was very happy and said: "Boss, if you go to refuel the motorcycle, you must ride a motorcycle. Can I take your motorcycle? I don't really want to drive."
Li You nodded, "Of course."
"Thank you, boss!" Ye Shengge was even more happy.
Li You smiled and said: "Then eat the noodles first. Eat the noodles and then leave."
"Okay."
Li You cooked two small bowls of Yangchun noodles, and after eating them with Ye Shengge, they were ready to set off.
After getting on the motorcycle, Ye Shengge also got on it.
Set off.
10 minutes later, we arrived at the entrance of the town market.
"You go to the market first, I'll refuel and come back to you."
"Okay."
Ye Shengge got off the car and walked into the market. Li You continued on his motorcycle and soon arrived at the gas station.
No. 92 gasoline is 7 yuan 7 a liter, which is okay.
Oil prices have dropped a bit recently.
To fill up the gas tank, the total cost is 85 yuan.
After refueling, Li You rode his motorcycle back to the entrance of the market. After parking the motorcycle, he walked into the market to look for Ye Shengge.
Not long after, I found it.
I saw Ye Shengge standing in front of a stall selling bamboo weaving tools.
The stalls are filled with various agricultural tools or daily necessities made of bamboo strips.
For example, baskets, bamboo baskets, dustpans, fence baskets, brush handles, and the hemp sieve that Li You just used yesterday, etc.
Each tool is beautifully designed!
The boss looks to be in his fifties. If all the tools in the stall are made by him, he is very skilled.
Ye Shengge seemed to be very interested in various tools and looked at them again and again in front of the stall.
Li You walked over and said with a smile: "What? What do you want to buy?"
Ye Shengge heard the sound, turned around and said, "Have you filled up the gas?"
Li You nodded.
Ye Shengge added: "Look, these tools are all beautifully woven."
Li You nodded again and said: "They are indeed beautiful. The boss's craftsmanship is very good!"
After finishing speaking, he said to the boss: "Boss, did you make up all these things yourself?"
The boss nodded, "I made it all up myself."
Li You gave a thumbs up, "It's so well done! The boss's skills are quite high!"
The boss was very happy to see the two young people praising his skills so much, but he said modestly: "I can only say that it's passable, not too great."
Li You said again: "The boss is so humble. By the way, which village is the boss from?"
The boss said: "From Shuiyuan Village."
Shuiyuan Village is the same village as Luo Yunlin.
Li You nodded and said: "I know Shuiyuan Village and have been there."
The boss was even more happy and started chatting with Li You for a long time.
The boss is very talkative.
After chatting for a while, Ye Shengge was done with it, and the two of them said goodbye and left.
Li You didn't have anything he needed to buy at the boss's stall. Of course, Ye Shengge didn't have anything.
Therefore, there is no way to take care of the boss’s business.
I'll take care of you if you need it in the future.
The two people continued to walk forward, and when they were about to reach another exit of the market, they suddenly heard a "bang" not far away.
The sound is very loud.
Ye Shengge wondered: "What is the sound? Did the car have a flat tire?"
The sound does sound a bit like a car tire blowing out, but it shouldn't be a car blowing out.
Li You said: "It shouldn't be a tire blowout, but the sound of the popcorn machine when the lid is opened."
"Popcorn machine?" Ye Shengge was thinking, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean the old-fashioned hand-cranked popcorn machine that is placed on the stove?"
"Huh? Have you seen it?" Li You was a little surprised.
Logically speaking, Ye Shengge should have never seen that thing!
Ye Shengge said: "I've seen it before! I've only seen it online. I've never seen it in real life. Is it that kind of popcorn machine?"
