Chapter 140
Chapter 140
On the day before Christmas, the streets, especially the front and rear doors of the school, almost every shop and even roadside carts are full of apples.
The birth of this "tradition" is actually absurd when you think about it carefully.
Christmas Eve was originally imported.
Apple stands for peace and is a homophonic stem in Chinese.
The two are combined together and placed on other things, which will be full of Shanzhai.
But when it comes to the festival, people won't resist too much.
The reason can only be said that the longing for joy and happiness is the common aspiration of mankind.
The island countries next door also have a similar situation. They also like to "sew" self-made "Customs" with various western festivals.
One of the more familiar items is that Oriental people must give chocolate on Valentine's day, and they especially like to make it by hand.
In addition, we have to eat KFC at Christmas, write our wishes on colored paper on Tanabata Festival, hang them on bamboo leaves and so on
Anyway, no matter what the situation is, these self-control customs must have placed some beautiful expectations in it.
So after school in the afternoon, many people didn't eat and went to buy apples.
Some high-end products will have separate cartons, which are wrapped layer by layer. Most of the varieties are red Fuji. The bright red ones are both full of festivity and in line with the theme color of Christmas. They can often sell for 15 to 20 yuan each.
Those who will buy this kind of Apple will either give it to specific people or have too much money in their pockets to spend.
Those who send AOE in groups like Ma Weiwei first go to the fruit store or trolley.
The apples there will be better. Two or three of them will be sold together with red fishing nets. Some will be accompanied by notes and blessings, and some will not.
Ma Weiwei must be the kind she didn't buy. She has to write her own blessings. It's fun and sincere.
"Weiwei, how much do you want to buy?"
"Two kilograms first, and you?"
"Er... I'd better talk about... About three..."
Chen Chen, who is with Ma Weiwei, is not as tough as her. There are only a few people who are willing to send and worth it. They usually play very well.
But sister Ma is different. At least she is also a socialite. With her straightforward character, she has gained a lot of friendship between boys and girls in all classes.
She went directly to a fruit store called "Huaguoshan", squatted in front of the apple stand, counted and picked it up in the bag.
"One from front to back, then the monitor..."
"Fang Sheng ate fat sausage powder yesterday. Give him two..."
"Sister Jia... Er... I don't like this kind of thing. Forget it. Anyway, I didn't give it last year..."
"The four magic gods are big people. One person buys three..."
Chen Chen interrupted halfway:
"Wait, why are there only three of the four magic gods?"
"Nonsense, brother Xian is not something I can get contaminated with. So are you. The monitor's man had better not hook up."
Chen Chen listens to the corners of his mouth, doesn't it just an apple, or a group, as for
"That's great! My name is Eq. Chen Chen, just learn it... Boss! Come and weigh it! "
-------------
When Ma Weiwei weighed three and a half kilograms of apples, the other three people also came here.
"Huaguo Mountain... Jiajia, are you sure it's OK here..."
"Well, I'm sure."
Zhou Jia nodded confidently and stared at the sign that said [88% off] on the apple stand with bright eyes.
Gu Xiaoyan on the right thinks about it. She still decides to buy something better. After all, this Christmas is not for childhood sweethearts anymore. It's better to choose a box.
"And you, Xiao Yuanyuan?"
She also looked right at Su Yuan, who was rubbing her hands crazily.
"I... I can. Let's hurry up. It's so cold today..."
She recalled the Christmas she saw in the film and television works. It seemed that it was snowing.
It won't snow in Chengdu, but it's really colder today than usual.
The three girls put on down jackets outside their school uniforms. When they came out of the classroom, Zhou Jia had wrapped up her shawl as a scarf, and Gu Xiaoyan was also wearing a pair of warm knitted gloves, but Su Yuan was not ready for anything. He rubbed his hands and stamped his feet.
"Put this on."
Gu Xiaoyan took off a glove and handed it to Su Yuan.
"Thank you."
The gloves are blended with a little wool. After Su Yuan wears them, he doesn't have to rub his hands, just stamp his feet.
"Let's take the lead. I'll buy boxed ones over there, and you'll choose paperback ones here."
"OK."
"Uh huh!"
The study committee members agree with both hands. The family is not well-off, and my father's work has not been smooth recently. It's better to save a little.
Gu Xiaoyan one, one for himself, and one for his brother, father and himself.
And Su Yuan, everyone is a "bed friend" who has slept in the quilt. We should give her one too.
1、2、3、4、5...
Zhou Jia's eyes flickered a little. Finally, she hesitated twice and slipped another one in quietly.
Six.
Looking at the six apples in the bag, Zhou Jiachang sighed.
Just bought one more for a friend. Why do you feel guilty about being a thief
"Jiajia, I have chosen ~"
Su Yuan came as like as two peas and hops, and drew his red nose. He happily lifted his pocket. The shape of the apple inside was almost the same.
Gu Xiaoyan finished his selection and ran over with a wave of his hand.
The three people took their Christmas apples and walked back to the classroom. Except Zhou Jia, who was still cold, the other two couldn't wait to send the apples out.
It's just that they seem to have prepared too early. The object to be sent hasn't arrived in the classroom, but it's quite lively near his seat, because Ma Weiwei has been distributed to the world in the heat.
"Come one by one, little rabbits! Roar! "
Socialites can play. Sister Ma tore a lot of notes, stuck them on her chin with double-sided tape as a beard, and made Santa Claus laugh.
[Chen Chen baby: May you be treated gently by the world]
[brother Fang: good brother, in the afterlife, you make fat intestines and I'll make powder]
[Li Chi: hehe]
......
Ma Weiwei wrote all kinds of blessings on the notes. After writing one, she stuck one on the apple. Many people lined up there to get it. Three kilograms of apples soon lost half.
"Thank you, sister ma."
"Next!"
Ma Weiwei gradually skilled, writing, stickers, throwing apples
A set of operation is more smooth than dove. I don't know. I thought it was the signing meeting of teacher 6.
Gu Xiaoyan also wrote a lot of words on his seat, then folded into thousands of paper cranes, put them into the box containing apples and stuffed them triumphantly into Lin Xiaoxian's desk.
Zhou Jia wanted to slip it in, but she looked at the humble plastic bag in her hand and Xiaoyan's
I didn't feel much when I was outside. Now I go back to the bright classroom and compare it. Her little apple is so poor.
The study committee members are not very good at picking. They felt almost the same when they bought them. Now they see that they all choose crooked melons and cracked dates, which are ugly.
Alas, I knew I wouldn't save that little money.
Zhou Jia silently mentioned the apple pocket behind her.
Forget it, I'd better wait until he disassembles Xiaoyan
