Start a mysterious island

Chapter 268 Promise and Jianghu Routines (two chapters in one)

One person, two cats, and three little guys were squatting under a big tree on the roadside in the community, whispering and chatting with each other.

"Da da da……"

Xia Qing, wearing low-heeled sandals, bought a pack of salt and returned to the community. From a distance, she saw her daughter squatting in front of two kittens, one black and one white.

She often saw these two kittens when she went out to buy groceries in the morning. She heard from other parents in the community that they were not domestic cats in the community, and that they had very bad tempers and would often fight with each other. .

Xia Qing was told to keep an eye on her children and not let them get close to the two wild cats to avoid being scratched by them.

"Tongtong..." When she thought that these two wild cats might scratch Zhou Tongtong, Xia Qing, who cared deeply about her daughter, shouted and ran towards her daughter quickly.

The little black cat and the little white cat were eating the third ham when they suddenly heard a human yelling.

They immediately raised their heads and looked towards the place where the sound came from, and then they saw the yelling human being running towards them quickly.

The two kittens, who had always been wary of humans, immediately ran away with a loud noise and quickly got into the leafy bushes where they had been hiding.

"Mom..." Zhou Tongtong stood up and said to her mother who came to her, "Why are you running so fast? You will fall..."

"Huh..." Xia Qing's breath was a little short because she was running fast.

She glanced at the uneaten ham on the ground by the two escaped wild cats, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Tongtong, don't feed those two wild cats casually in the future. I heard that they have very bad tempers and can scratch people accidentally."

Zhou Tongtong shook her head and said, "Mom, did you make a mistake? I think those two kittens are quite docile..."

"Are they docile? I heard from many people that the two wild cats often fight with each other in some places in the community.

You must stay away from wild cats that like to fight so much, do you understand? If you are scratched by them, your mother will be very sad..." Xia Qing said.

"Uh..." Zhou Tongtong heard her mother say that the two kittens liked to fight. She remembered that when she first saw them, the two little guys were actually fighting. She immediately couldn't defend the two kittens. .

When Xia Qing saw Zhou Tongtong hesitating, she knew that it was impossible for her daughter not to feed the two wild cats in the future.

So, she said to her daughter, "Hey, you kid, if you really want to feed them, it's not impossible.

But you have to promise your mother not to get too close to them when feeding them, just throw the food to them from a distance. "

When Zhou Tongtong saw her mother open her eyes, her tangled little face immediately relaxed, and she said happily, "Okay, if I feed them food in the future, I will keep a certain distance from them."

"It's going to get dark soon, let's go home! Mom will cook your favorite curry paella for dinner."

The matter about the two little wild cats came to an end. Xia Qing took her daughter's hand, picked up a bag of ingredients on the ground, and walked towards home while talking to her daughter about what to cook for dinner.

"Mom, when you cook seafood curry rice later, please have a few more prawns."

"Okay, I'll add a few more prawns when I cook them."

"Mom, I want to eat two big bowls of seafood curry rice tonight..."

"There are two big bowls, can you eat it?"

"I can eat it. My stomach is empty now! It's very easy to eat two big bowls."

The cheerful chatter between mother and daughter gradually disappeared as their retreating figures.

Not long after they left, the little black cat and the little white cat that had escaped earlier emerged from the leafy bushes again.

They looked left and right, and after confirming that there were no humans around, they quickly jumped out of the green belt, picked up the uneaten ham on the ground, and ran away.

…………

"Ding."

The elevator door opened slowly, and Xia Qing, carrying a large bag of ingredients, and Zhou Tongtong, carrying a cartoon schoolbag, walked out of the elevator.

Xia Qing, who was about to take out the key from her pocket and open the door, suddenly remembered that a plate of dumplings she had wrapped yesterday and was ready to be given to the neighbor next door was still in the refrigerator.

She immediately stopped opening the door and turned around to the neighbor's door next door.

"Ding dong..."

The doorbell rang, and after a while, no one came to open the door.

"Mom, is Brother Lin Li going away from home?" Zhou Tongtong, who was standing aside, raised her head and looked at her mother and said.

"I don't know!" Xia Qing said.

"Mom, I remember that you seemed to have exchanged contact information with brother Lin Li before. Wouldn't you know better if you sent him a message?" Zhou Tongtong suggested using her brain.

"Yes! I forgot about this." Xia Qing was reminded by her daughter and reacted belatedly. Then she took out her mobile phone from her pocket and sent a message to Lin Li.

"Lin Li, are you at home?"

After sending the message, Xia Qing and her daughter went back to their home.

Lin Li, who was far away in another city, was having dinner with Su Yue and walked out of the restaurant.

"So full!" His stomach was full, so he raised his hand to pat his bulging belly and muttered to himself.

"Lin Li, I feel like your appetite has become smaller!" Su Yue said from the side.

Of course it has become smaller. The side effects I had after eating the magic fruit have completely disappeared and my food intake has returned to normal... Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then said to Su Yue who was wondering why his food intake had become smaller.

"My appetite has always been at this level. Before, it was because I was too hungry and I ate a lot at once, which gave you the illusion that my appetite has become very large."

"That's it! Then don't force yourself to eat if you couldn't eat anymore! It's so uncomfortable to overeat yourself..." Su Yue said.

"If there is nothing left, do I need to pack it? If there is a lot left, then pack it.

But there weren’t much left, and I thought it would be troublesome to pack them up again, so I ate them all. Lin Li explained with a smile.

"You're really good at trying to save yourself the trouble and stuff yourself..." Su Yue rolled her eyes at Lin Li and complained.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you say you are already tired after playing for a day? Then let's go back to the hotel and rest!" Lin Li said and walked towards the parking lot.

But when he just took a step forward, Su Yue, who was standing next to him, stretched out her hand and grabbed his clothes.

"What are you doing?" Lin Li, who was grabbed by his clothes, turned around and looked at Su Yue in confusion.

"You're so stuffed, it'll be hard to drive later. Let's go to the park over there first to eat and then go back." Su Yue pointed to the lively park in the distance and said.

"It's okay, I just need to hold on. Anyway, it only takes twenty minutes to drive back to the hotel from here, so it's not too long at all."

"Okay, stop talking. We're not in a hurry to get back to the hotel. Let's go to the park over there for half an hour before going back." After Su Yue finished speaking, she took the lead and walked towards the lively park in the distance. Lin Li saw this , can only keep up.

…………

The sun has already set in the sky, and the light from the street lamps provides light to passers-by.

Because many people come to the park to cool off, it is very lively here.

Some small vendors even set up stalls here, some selling small jewelry, some selling marshmallows, and some setting up traps...

"Wow, Lin Li, this park is much more lively than the park near our home." Su Yue said while looking at the people coming and going in the park.

"Maybe it's because the park here allows stalls! If the park near our home also allows stalls, the bustling level shouldn't be much lower than this park."

Lin Li looked at the many people gathered around the stalls in the distance. After thinking about it, he probably guessed why the park was so lively.

Su Yue nodded after hearing what Lin Li said, thinking that this should be the case.

"It's been a long time since I've played roping. Let's go over and play!" Su Yue raised her hand and patted Lin Li's arm, pointing to a small roping stall not far to her right that had just opened.

"sure!"

Then, the two people came to the ring stall where gifts were being placed on the ground.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man who was nearly fifty years old. He noticed someone coming to his stall and immediately turned his head to look.

He saw two young people, a man and a woman. Based on his experience, the business could be said to be successful.

Before the middle-aged man setting up the stall could speak, Su Yue couldn't wait to ask, "Boss, how much does your plastic circle cost?"

"Five ten bucks."

"Okay, give me fifty dollars."

"Okay, do you want to pay with cash or mobile phone?"

"Mobile payment."

Su Yue took out her mobile phone and scanned the payment code that the middle-aged man took out. After paying, she took the twenty-five plastic circles handed over by the other party.

"Boss, the plastic circle you gave me seems a bit small!" Su Yue looked at the plastic circle in her hand and felt that it was much smaller than the circles she had played with before.

"Beauty, I also have circles in a larger size, but they are more expensive, five for fifteen yuan, do you want them? If so, you can add twenty-five yuan, and I will exchange them for you into a larger size. circle."

A cunning look flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man setting up the stall. As he spoke, he took out many larger-sized plastic circles from his cloth bag.

"Uh... OK! I'll give you another twenty-five yuan, and you can change it to a larger circle." Su Yue looked at the larger circle in the other person's hand, and thought about it. In order to improve Based on my own hit rate, I decided to add another twenty-five yuan.

But just when she was about to take out her mobile phone to scan the QR code and pay an extra twenty-five yuan, Lin Li, who was standing aside and didn't say much, raised his hand to stop her.

"What's wrong?" Su Yue, who was about to pay, looked at Lin Li in confusion.

"No need to add money, we will play with small circles..." Lin Li had been paying attention to the expression of the stall owner just now, and noticed the triumphant smile that inadvertently appeared on his face. He thought for a moment, I guessed it.

The stall owner, seeing that the two of them were outsiders, saw that Su Yue paid directly without first asking to see the size of the circle, so he deliberately gave Su Yue a small circle.

If Lin Li's speculation was correct, the circle Su Yue paid for just now should have been the large circle in the opponent's hand.

Before Su Yue realized that she had been fooled by the other party, she said, "This circle is a bit small! If we change it to a larger size, it will be easier to catch things."

"The smaller ones are more challenging to play with. You don't need to change to the bigger ones, just play with the smaller ones." Lin Li said while looking at Su Yue and winking at her quickly.

"Eh?!!!" Su Yue saw Lin Li giving her a look. Although she didn't understand what was going on, she no longer insisted on paying more for a larger circle.

"Okay, then as you said, let's play with the small circles first..." Su Yue said, dividing the circles in her hand into ten for Lin Li.

The middle-aged man setting up the stall couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw that the money he was about to receive was gone. He subconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth, and then looked at Lin Li with a slightly resentful look.

"Haha..." Lin Li noticed the other party's gaze and smiled coldly in his heart, "You dare to fool us. You will be able to see it later..."

After a few minutes, the middle-aged man setting up the stall laid out all the prizes he had prepared. Then he said to Lin Li and Su Yue, "I have laid out all the prizes. You can start."

Su Yue, who had been looking forward to it for a while, nodded, then stood behind the red line drawn by the opponent on the ground and started playing the ring game.

Su Yue first observed the large number of prizes displayed by the other party, and then decided to start with the nearest one.

"call out."

With a flick of her arm, the plastic circle immediately flew out of Su Yue's hand, then flew past her favorite prize and landed directly in the open space.

"Hey, I missed..." Su Yue didn't feel disappointed when the first shot missed. After all, the plastic circle on her hand was relatively small, so it was not easy to win the prize.

"call out."

"call out."

"call out……"

Then, Su Yue threw the plastic circles in her hand one after another. In the end, she only caught a bottle of mineral water worth two yuan, which she got by mistake.

She spent a total of 30 yuan on fifteen plastic circles, but in the end she only got something worth two yuan, which can be said to be a big loss.

The middle-aged man who set up the stall collected all the fifteen plastic circles that Su Yue threw and said with a smile.

"Beauty, practice makes perfect. When you first start playing, it's not easy to win prizes. If you practice with a few more circles, once you get used to it, it will be easy to win prizes on the ground."

This is a common saying used by middle-aged men. In the past, whenever he said these words to girls, those girls would basically be led by his words to spend their own money to buy a set of plastic circles and play with them. .
