Chapter 494: Meeting My Aunt's Daughter
The minced meat is soft and tasty. Although the fried dough sticks are not as crispy, they taste very fragrant. And the sauerkraut tastes exactly the same as the ones my mother used to pickle at home.
This glutinous rice ball is so delicious!
It was just that Jiang Duoduo had just finished lunch and was not hungry at all. She only took a few bites of the glutinous rice ball and felt full.
What followed naturally was the system's ding sound, announcing that the meal had been successfully free-fed.
After receiving the cash reward and points, Jiang Duoduo began to slow down her eating of rice balls.
At this moment, she remembered that Wu Xiaozhu seemed to have asked her just now, how did he know her name?
this……
Jiang Duoduo naturally couldn't say that it was a system prompt.
Suddenly, Jiang Duoduo remembered that the system said that this Wu Xiaozhu might be someone she knew.
In this place in your province, Jiang Duoduo felt that the only people she might know should be her aunt's family!
She remembered that her uncle's surname seemed to be Wu. Could this girl named Wu Xiaozhu be her aunt's daughter?
The more Jiang Duoduo thought about it, the more excited she became.
Eager to know the answer, she ate the remaining rice ball in her hand.
Then he looked at Wu Xiaozhu, who was also eating rice balls with big mouthfuls, and asked, "Little girl, you look a bit like my aunt. Do you know Chen Shumin?"
"Ah! Ahem..."
When Wu Xiaozhu heard his mother's name suddenly spoken by a stranger, he almost choked on the glutinous rice ball in his mouth.
"You...you not only know my name, but you also know my mother's name?"
"You...you just said my mom is your aunt? Ahhhhhh..."
Wu Xiaozhu kept talking incoherently to Jiang Duoduo for a long time before finally making clear what he wanted to say.
"Oh my God! You really are my aunt Chen Shumin's daughter! This...this is such a coincidence!"
"I... I'm your cousin! My name is Jiang Duoduo, and my mother is your mother's second sister, Chen Shuyue. Has your mother ever mentioned us to you?"
Wu Xiaozhu's incoherent speech seemed to be contagious, and Jiang Duoduo also started speaking incoherently.
She didn't expect that she would meet her aunt's daughter while doing a free meal mission.
This fellow, the glutton, did a really good job on this matter!
"Cousin? Really? You're cousin Duoduo? I've heard my mom mention you before!"
Wu Xiaozhu looked at Jiang Duoduo in front of him with shining eyes.
Her mother often told her that she must study hard and work hard to get into college. Only by going to college can girls from the mountains get out of the mountains, and only by going to college can they have a good job in the future!
She said she had a distant cousin who was admitted to university because of her good academic performance.
Now he makes a lot of money running a hotel and his family lives a good life.
Wu Xiaozhu remembered that this cousin seemed to be called Jiang Duoduo, and she was from her second aunt's family. She admired this cousin so much!
"That's great! My mom, my aunt's family, and I were planning to go to your house today! Oh, by the way, Xiaozhu, why is no one answering your mom's phone?"
Jiang Duoduo looked at her cousin who was even more excited than herself and asked about her aunt's cell phone.
"My mom's phone is broken, and buying a new one would cost 600 to 700 yuan. She was a little reluctant, so she said she would wait until after the Chinese New Year."
When talking about this, Wu Xiaozhu's eyes looked a little lonely.
Her mother gave her this broken phone when her father gave it to her two years ago.
Otherwise, her mother would not be willing to spend money to buy a mobile phone. Everything for food, clothing and daily necessities at home costs money, and she and her younger sisters also need money to go to school.
All this money has to be saved by her mother, and Wu Xiaozhu feels that it is not easy for her mother.
"Oh, that's how it is……"
When Jiang Duoduo heard this, she thought about going to the mobile phone store in town to buy a new phone for her aunt. It was really inconvenient not to have a phone now.
"Xiao Zhu, today is only the sixth day of the New Year. Why are you setting up a stall in town alone?"
In order to get to know each other better as quickly as possible, Jiang Duoduo casually asked Xiaozhu about the stall here.
"I...I have nothing to do at home during the holidays, so I thought of setting up a stall here to earn some living expenses after school starts."
Wu Xiaozhu lowered his head and looked at the rice ball in his hand that he had taken several bites of and said softly.
In fact, in their village, as long as the conditions are slightly better, no one will set up a stall in the first month of the lunar year.
Except for my two older sisters who are already married, all the other children in my family are still in school.
The money her father earned from odd jobs in town was not enough to buy his own alcohol.
My tuition and living expenses for myself and my sisters depended on my mother selling mountain products.
This time, her mother had to work hard to get a spot to set up a stall at the Spring Festival market by asking the village chief. She and her mother started setting up the stall here on the first day of the new year.
Today, my two aunts are coming to visit our house, and my mother has to cook for a large table of people, so we didn’t come out to set up the stall together.
Wu Xiaozhu was afraid that Jiang Duoduo would misunderstand, so she quickly explained, "Sister Duoduo, I usually come to the stall with my mother. Today, my two aunts came to our house, and my mother didn't come because she had to cook. I'm fine with my neighbor Aunt Wang."
As Wu Xiaozhu spoke, he pointed at the auntie selling fried dough twists at the stall opposite.
Jiang Duoduo turned around and saw that the aunt was also looking at Jiang Duoduo with curiosity.
"Hello, Aunt Wang!"
Jiang Duoduo greeted Aunt Wang across from her from a distance.
"Hello!"
Aunt Wang didn't expect that after she stared at the beautiful girl for a while, she actually greeted her. She was so scared that she quickly replied with two "hellos".
"Sister Duoduo, where are my aunt and second aunt? Didn't you say you wanted to go to my house? I'll take you there right now. My mom will definitely be very happy to see you!"
As Wu Xiaozhu spoke, he began to pack up his stall, thinking about taking his aunt and second aunt home as soon as possible.
This is the first time she has seen her mother's relatives since she was born.
Sure enough, the relatives on my mother's side are different from those on my father's side.
Wu Xiaozhu really wanted to tell her mother about this great news right now.
It’s a pity that I don’t have a cell phone and my mother’s cell phone is broken. Otherwise, I could borrow Aunt Wang’s cell phone to call my mother.
"Great! Originally I had to rely on navigation, but now that you're leading the way, I don't have to worry about getting lost. Come on, I'll help you collect it!"
Jiang Duoduo quickly reached out to help, and together with Wu Xiaozhu, they put all the sachets on the table into a large black plastic bag.
It’s true that these sachets embroidered by hand stitch by stitch are different from those embroidered in batches by machines.
Jiang Duoduo took one in her hand and looked at it carefully.
The fabric is colorful and the colors look very festive.
The gold ingots, abacus, and some flowers and plants in the middle were all embroidered vividly. When the wind blew, Jiang Duoduo could smell a faint fragrance of flowers.
"Xiao Zhu, these sachets and lucky bags you made are so beautiful. I want to buy some to give to my friends and hang them on their cars. Can you calculate how much the sachets and lucky bags in this bag are worth in total?"
