Dad Le held the tomato in his hand and put it to his mouth. At first he heard a slightly urgent sound behind him, and turned his head subconsciously. He saw three or four people standing on the side of the waiting room door, looking at him. He reacted conditionedly. looking at the tomatoes in his hand.
Leyun’s hearing is super sensitive. She already knew that someone was coming and knew who it was from the conversation. At this time, she pretended to turn her head and look around, winking: "County Magistrate Tang"
The little girl's tone seemed to be a little surprised and confused, which attracted the attention of County Magistrate Tang and his entourage. Everyone looked at the girl, whose bright eyes and teeth were so beautiful.
"County Magistrate" Le's father stood up in shock. He forgot about his crutches, lost his balance and tilted to one side.
Le Yun, who reacted quickly, jumped up and supported her father to prevent him from falling.
Those in the waiting room were also looking towards the door. Whether they had seen the county magistrate on TV or had never watched the news, they all stood up subconsciously.
"Fellows, sit down, you're welcome. I'm waiting for the bus too." Mr. Tang is a bit short, with an altitude of less than 1.7 meters. He has a simple and honest face, is slightly fat, and has an approachable smile.
The men and women sat down again. The country mud-legged people had never seen a big shot. Meeting the county magistrate was similar to the ancient villagers meeting the magistrate. They felt uneasy and did not dare to speak loudly. They were very restrained.
County Magistrate Tang greeted everyone, walked to the Le family and his daughter with a smile, and held Le's father's hand, "Fellow, sit down, I was too rash, and you were shocked."
Le’s father smiled naively, sat down, and handed over the tomatoes he was holding, “County Chief, quench your thirst.”
I was embarrassed when I just raised my hand. Blushing, his hands were rough.
"Thank you, fellow man." County Magistrate Tang took the tomato from the man's hand, rubbed it in his hands, put it to his mouth and took a bite. The bite was overflowing with sweetness and mouth watering.
“It’s delicious, crispy, sweet and fragrant. It’s so delicious. When I first smelled it, it felt like the taste I remembered when I was a child. It tasted even more delicious than what I remembered, fellow countryman. Did you grow this at home?" County Magistrate Tang took a few bites, ate half of it, and was full of praise.
Several of the entourage swallowed quietly.
Lele’s father patted his head innocently, “This was bought by my Lele.”
He looked at his daughter again and saw his girl holding a backpack with a wary look on her face. He almost wanted to say, "I still have some here, you can try it again."
"Is this little classmate your daughter? How old is she?" How old are you?" County Magistrate Tang looked at the immature female student, who looked like a primary school student.
"I am fourteen years old today and I am a senior in high school." Le Yun hugged her backpack and heard the sound of people swallowing saliva. She felt that she might not be able to keep the red wine she gave to her father.
"You're in your senior year of high school. What a good boy. Fourteen years old. He's a senior in high school." County Magistrate Tang replied smoothly. He suddenly came back to his senses and looked at the pretty girl in surprise. SmallShe is in the third year of high school, right?
“My daughter skipped a grade before and is about to take the college entrance examination. Today is her birthday, so I came to have a meal with her, but this child was so stubborn that she insisted on sending me to the car. He is willing to go back to school to review, as if he is afraid that I will get lost. How can a person of my age get lost?"
Le's father was very embarrassed, fearing that the county magistrate would think that the child did not like to study and would have an impression on his daughter. If it doesn't look good, please quickly explain why you are not at school.
The people in the waiting room looked at me and I looked at you. Did they hear it correctly? She was a senior in high school at the age of fourteen, and she was about to take the college entrance examination. How many grades had she skipped before? The school also skipped a grade.
Think about their children or the children of relatives who are fourteen years old and still in the first or second grade of junior high school. Then look at that pretty girl, and you will immediately feel envious of them. Children who have skipped a grade. , the results must be quite good.
County Magistrate Tang felt that he was a little incompetent. Of course, he did not show it. He expressed congratulations very sincerely and said that the education was great. He noticed that everyone looked at the red wine in his hand from time to time. Hey, he ate it up quickly without even wiping his mouth.
"Wow" The county magistrate had just finished eating up the remaining tomatoes. A child of about four or five years old who had been staring at him burst into tears, crying and fussing, shouting "I want it, I want it."
More than a dozen people in the waiting room were stunned.
The parents, who were in their thirties with their children, tried to coax and persuade them, but they couldn't handle the child who kept making troubles. The young father had no choice but to hesitate and muster up the courage to walk to the Le family home where the father and daughter lived. In front of them, some people said embarrassedly, "Little sister, do you have any tomatoes left? Can you share one with me?"
Everyone looked at the Le family father and daughter, Le's father looked at the child, Le Yun Holding the backpack, he looked like he was protecting his calf and said nothing.
"Lele, let's give him one." Lele's father felt embarrassed and hesitantly discussed with his little cotton-padded jacket.
"No, don't give away good food that costs ten yuan a pound to others." Le Yun firmly refused, joking, why should the things she worked so hard to grow be given away to others when she was a child? , she is greedy for what others have, who has given it to her
"Ten yuan a pound" everyone was surprised again, ten yuan a pound of tomatoes, is this wrong?
Young people The person stood there, it was neither good to leave nor to stay, it was extremely embarrassing.
"Little classmate, where did you buy it? Why is it so expensive?" County Magistrate Tang quickly came out to change the topic.
"Is it expensive for ten yuan per catty? County Magistrate, if you can buy the same one, I will help you sell it for ten yuan per catty." Le Yun hugged her backpack and protected it properly. I was determined not to give the bag to my father. Once the bag was in his hands, every tomato would be carved up.
"This, I really can't find such a pure taste. Even the purest taste in my hometown, Long Province, is not as good as this." County Magistrate Tang was overjoyed when he was defeated by an army. Admit that you can't do it.
“That’s it, you get what you pay for, and this price is not for selling tomatoes.What people shout out is the price voluntarily given by the buyer. I heard that it was a big boss who opened a company in the city. He accidentally came to Fang County and met an old man growing tomatoes. After eating one, he rounded up the old man’s tomatoes. , buy as much as you can, and the big boss always drives to the county to get it by himself. Just think about it and you will know how rare this thing is. ”
Le Yun has not lied many times since she was a child, but this time she lied to the end. Anyway, she was telling nonsense all by herself, and no one else knew about it.
< p>Everyone was so embarrassed that they drove all the way from the city to get the tomatoes. They were indeed rich and willful people.The children were still crying, and the young people couldn’t make any progress, so they thought about it. Thinking, he took out ten dollars from his pocket, "Little sister, I'll buy two from you. ”
