Chapter 139: Delicious Cucumber (Second Update)
(Second update!)
"I said, Comrade Sugela, are you following us?" In a crossing rice noodle shop, Zhao Tiezhu helplessly looked at Sugela and his woman sitting next to him.
"I'm not playing, why are you following me? This can only mean that we're fated to be together." Su Ge laughed and took a sip of his soup, gazing at the two women beside Zhao Tiezhu with envy.
Brother is still envying you... Zhao Tiezhu was speechless. After finishing dinner, Zhao Tiezhu directly took the girls out and walked to the left. Su Ge couldn't help but smile wryly and said to his companion, "Let's go right."
As it was almost evening, Zhao Tiezhu and the two women went directly to a relatively famous scenic spot in the city center, the two what-what arches. When they arrived, Zhao Tiezhu took a look and found that it was just a square with an arch on each side, nothing special about it. After walking for a while, Lucy suddenly felt thirsty, and coincidentally there were fruit vendors nearby, so the three of them walked over.
"This watermelon is very delicious, if it's not sweet, you don't have to pay!" The boss, an old lady, greeted the customer as soon as she saw her.
Zhao Tiezhu nodded and said, "Give me one that's not sweet."
The boss has a black line on his head.
"Boss, don't listen to him, give me two cucumbers." Su Yanni glared at Zhao Tiezhu and directly picked up the cucumbers from the stall.
"Wow, you're buying a cucumber?" Zhao Tiezhu exclaimed, causing the people around him to cast sideways glances, and upon seeing the thick and large cucumber in Su Yanni's hand, many of them revealed knowing gazes.
Su Yanni was called by Zhao Tiezhu, her hand shook, and she hadn't reacted yet. Seeing everyone's gaze, she suddenly thought of something, and her face turned red instantly.
Lucy looked puzzled, "What's wrong with buying cucumbers?"
"Cucumbers are really good stuff, edible and usable, affordable price, especially with those little bumps on top, hmm, very delicious." Zhao Tiezhu nodded in explanation.
"Really? Then I'll buy a few more." Lucy happily picked up the cucumbers, while Su Yanni gave Zhao Tiezhu a murderous glare. "Are your family's cucumbers all for sale?" Su Yanni asked in a low tone.
"I'm not that heavy-handed," Zhao Tiezhu smiled, "This thing, I've never used it."
Su Yanni was thoroughly defeated by Zhao Tiezhu, put down the cucumber and picked up a wooden melon.
Lucy was shocked at the time, "This is too thick!!!!!!"
"This time Zhao Tiezhu was speechless, you were pretending to be innocent just now."
Lucy also reacted and smiled awkwardly, saying "Actually, I don't know what cucumbers are used for."
Su Yanni put down the melon directly and pulled Lucy away.
"Haha, using a cucumber, it really works!" Zhao Tiezhu chuckled and looked at the old woman with a black face, especially the look in her eyes that said "if you don't buy from me, I'll fight you to the death". Zhao Tiezhu shuddered all over, "Give me three cucumbers."
Two women were waiting for Zhao Tiezhu not far away. Zhao Tiezhu was holding a bag in one hand and eating a cucumber with the other, savoring it.
"Here, there are two more, you each take one, agreed? Don't even think about playing with them." Zhao Tiezhu generously handed the cucumbers to Su Yanni. Su Yanni glared at Zhao Tiezhu, refusing to accept.
"What are you looking at? It's just a bunch of stuff I bought in bulk, it's quite practical, but this thing is edible, get it?" Zhao Tiezhu continued to mutter to himself.
"Get lost." Su Yanni finally couldn't hold it in and turned her head to leave.
"Rail pillar, give it to me." Lucy gave Zhao Tiezhu a charming look, took the plastic bag with one hand and followed Su Yanni in small steps.
"I'll go check it out. Foreign chicks really have a heavy taste, wanting two at once?" Zhao Tiezhu thought wickedly and followed the two girls.
"Yanni, Tiezhu was just joking." Lucy took out a cucumber and handed it to Su Yanni. Su Yanni looked at Zhao Tiezhu, hummed, took the cucumber, and bit down on it with a crunching sound, taking a big bite off the cucumber.
Zhao Tiezhu instinctively shrunk his body, looking at Su Yanni's sharp tiger teeth, and felt a chill run down his spine. He thought to himself that it was better not to think about it anymore.
Then took the girls to stroll around the night market for a few kilometers, ate some snacks, and several people walked into KM's local specialty store, saying they wanted to buy some local specialties to take back, and wait for Li Ling'er and Cao Ziyue to come back, can give them.
Zhao Tiezhu had no problem, following the two women on a big shopping spree, eating and drinking and using things, without leaving anything behind. By the time they settled the bill, they had spent over 3000 yuan. Lucy looked at Zhao Tiezhu with an expectant face, Zhao Tiezhu wanted to say "you guys pay, I'll go to the restroom", but thinking that he had taken advantage of them and not daring to just walk away, he could only grit his teeth and foot the bill.
At this time, Su Yanni's face finally improved a bit, and she even took pity on Zhao Tiezhu and bought him a wristband. She personally put it on for Zhao Tiezhu, who was deeply moved in his heart and wished to devote himself to her completely. However, when they were leaving the store, Su Yanni once again ruthlessly asked Zhao Tiezhu to go pay the bill.
"Isn't this what you gave me?" Zhao Tiezhu said with a look of grievance.
"Yes, it was me who gave it to you, but you have to pay for it." Su Yanni said with a matter-of-fact tone, "Me giving it to you and you paying for it are two unrelated things, got it?" Su Yanni pinched Zhao Tiezhu's cheek and walked out of the store smiling.
Zhao Tiezhu tremblingly took out his wallet.
"How much does it cost?"
"I'm tired."
Zhao Tiezhu's heart ached as he lovingly stroked his wallet. He wasn't originally someone who would take losses, but this time out, he had been taken advantage of by two women. First, he had been dazzled by Lucy, and then he had shared a bed with Su Yanni for an entire night, leaving him feeling deeply guilty. As a result, when the two women made unreasonable demands, Zhao Tiezhu could only nod in agreement, tears in his eyes. However, later on, he discovered that although the two women had bought many things, most of them weren't even for themselves. A large package of tea leaves was to be taken back to the villa for everyone to drink together, a chain was for Zhao Tiezhu, some ancient books were for Cao Ziyu, and many snacks were for Li Ling'er. Su Yanni had only bought one sheepskin painting and one handmade ethnic minority scarf for herself, while Lucy had simply purchased postcards and some local ethnic music CDs.
Zhao Tiezhu felt unbearable, this money came and went, most of it was spent on himself. Zhao Tiezhu thought that he should also give the two girls something. Taking advantage of the two girls resting at a small station, Zhao Tiezhu made an excuse to go out for a stroll.
As Zhao Tiezhu passed by an ancient shop, he stopped his footsteps. The store looked very dark and formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding shops that were brightly lit. There was no advertisement in the store, not even a name. Out of curiosity, Zhao Tiezhu walked in.
A wave of antique scent hit his nose, the shop was very small, with a table in the middle, on which were placed various bone products. Zhao Tiezhu could smell a medicinal scent, refreshing and invigorating.
"Young man, take a look and see which one you like." An old man dressed in ethnic minority attire was sitting in the corner, holding a thin rope in one hand and a piece of bone carved into the shape of a wolf in the other.
"Let me take a look." Zhao Tiezhu looked around and suddenly two unremarkable dominoes caught his attention.
Zhao Tiezhu picked up the dominoes and took a look, the dominoes were very ordinary, plain, with no decorations on them, just tied together with a simple hemp string.
Zhao Tiezhu's eyes changed slightly, this domino, he had seen it before!
