Dad: I was reborn after my daughter died

Chapter 157 Buying seafood for my daughter-in-law

After leaving the hospital gate, Gu Chen carried Tangtang into his rented van.

He put Tangtang on the back seat, fastened his seat belt worriedly, then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the street.

On the street, Gu Chen found a decent-looking printing shop and walked in.

The boss is a young guy with glasses who looks a bit like an IT guy.

Gu Chen communicated with the owner according to what he originally thought, and asked him to come up with a sample contract.

After confirming again and again that there was no problem with the model contract, a total of [-] copies of the contract were printed out.

Although I don't know how many people are willing to buy land.

But eighty copies, no matter how you think about it, it should be a lot more.

After all, the countryside is backward, and more than half of the people in the village still earn money by farming.

Holding a thick stack of contracts, they left the door of the printing shop, and the father and daughter stood under the sun.

An hour has passed, and Tangtang is obviously a little tired at the moment.

The little guy looked listless and sullen.

Gu Chen stretched out a hand lovingly, touched her little head, and said softly, "Is Tangtang tired?"

After all, it was a child, because Ji Pianran was sent to the hospital today, so she was not allowed to take a nap.

The little guy is exhausted.

She nodded obediently, "Tangtang is sleepy."

She is really sleepy.

Gu Chen distressedly carried the little guy to the car and put it on the back seat. After thinking about it, he was still uneasy, so he made a note to fasten her seat belt, and took a distressed look.

Only then did the door close, and only then did he walk to the front with a pile of contracts.

After opening the driver's seat, he went up, put the contract aside, and drove towards the vegetable market.

If you want to deliver meals to your daughter-in-law, you have to buy vegetables.

Tangtang was sitting in the car, and as the car swayed, she fell asleep completely with her head tilted within 2 minutes.

Gu Chen originally planned to carry her to buy vegetables, but he couldn't bear to see the child sleeping soundly.

I had no choice but to get out of the car silently and go by myself.

When we arrived at the market, there were many people who bought vegetables, and there were all kinds of them.

It is rare for Gu Chen to discover that there are still seafood sellers, such as crabs, shrimps, and turbot.

This thing doesn't often appear in the market, after all, it's seafood, expensive!

Only a few people buy it.

Gu Chen looked at the huge red water basin in front of the boss, his eyes lit up.

"How are the crabs and turbot sold?"

Ji Pianran likes to eat fish, Gu Chen knows this better than anyone else.

But Turbot, in my memory, has never been eaten by her.

Even in their previous lives, they had never bought seafood.

After all, this thing is really expensive, and if you spend so much money, you just have to taste a few bites and you won't be full.

With this money, it would be better to buy a few more catties of ribs, so that the whole family can eat it, how cool it is!

The boss has been sitting here all afternoon, and there are quite a few people who came, but after hearing the price and leaving, there are not many who are really willing to buy.

Seeing Gu Chen dressed up like he obviously couldn't afford it, and he was still standing in front of his stall looking at it, he felt a little annoyed for no reason.

"21 catties of crabs, [-] catties of turbot, do you want it?"

Gu Chen didn't hesitate, and simply said: "Give me ten crabs, choose the big one, and turbot too, give me the biggest one."

Hearing this, the boss was taken aback, and immediately began to re-examine the young man in front of him.

Did he not explain the price clearly or did he not hear it?

There are so many things that people in the city can't afford, and this young man from the countryside actually opens his mouth to come up with the biggest one?

This is too unreasonable.

No matter how he thought about it, he felt a little weird.

Gu Chen read suspicion, disdain and a trace of shock from the boss's squinted eyes.

But he wasn't angry either.

Today's society is no longer what it used to be.

Dogs look down on people, and judging people by their appearance is nothing more than normal.

He immediately took out 200 yuan from his pocket and waved it in front of the boss.

This is a real 200 yuan for me!

Whether he earns or not is up to him.

Seeing the brand-new 200 yuan, the boss' pupils were startled.

Man, what a rich man!

It seems that in all likelihood, he is an upstart who just lost his land.

I am really blind, thanks to this person's good temper, otherwise this living star would lose more than 100 yuan!

For Qian's sake, he hurriedly smiled at Gu Chen with enthusiasm.

"Brother, look at you. I didn't say you couldn't afford it. I'm so embarrassed."

After speaking, he was afraid that Gu Chen would not want it anymore, so he stretched out his hand and pulled a bag from the side, and caught crabs for Gu Chen from the water basin in front of him.

I don't know if it's because of guilty conscience or guilt, but the crabs caught by Gu Chen seem to be quite big, and they are all female.

Big and fresh, the big pliers waved and waved, and it looked full of fighting power.

After catching ten of them, I drained the water in the bag, and then I went on the scale, and the total was four catties and one tael.

Then he picked the biggest turbot from another basin.

It was also put into a bag, cooked in the same way, drained, and put on a scale.

Then he smiled and looked at Gu Chen's face, "It's two pounds and five ounces, do you think it's okay?"

Gu Chen nodded, "OK."

Two catties and five taels, a family of three, is just right.

The boss has done the math, the crab is free for one tael, eighty for four catties, and thirty for turbot.

He smiled at Gu Chen, his tone subconsciously respectful, "A total of one hundred and one."

Gu Chen immediately handed over the 200 yuan in his hand.

"give change."

He was still in a hurry to go back to the car to watch Tangtang.

If Tangtang woke up and found that he was not there and was tied up by a seat belt and could not move, he would definitely be scared.

The boss took the money, then took out eight ten-dollar coupons from his apron pocket, and handed them two crumpled five-dollar coupons.

He bowed his waist and smiled at Gu Chen: "I'm looking for your money, come back after eating."

Gu Chen didn't say a word, took the money handed over by the boss, carried the bag and walked towards his van.

Fortunately, Tangtang didn't wake up, the little guy was really sleepy.

Leaning on the seat with his head tilted, his saliva flowed down from his sleep, and the side of his small mouth was moist.

Looking at Tangtang who was still sleeping soundly, Gu Chen felt distressed and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Really wronged the child, luckily all right.

He took out a small pack of toilet paper from his pocket, took out a piece, and wiped his daughter's saliva. Then he put the things he bought in the car, followed him into the car, and drove towards the village.

......

It was already five o'clock when I got home, and Xiao Tangtang also woke up.

She opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Gu Chen listlessly.

"Dad, what should we do now?"

Gu Chen thought about it, and looked at Tangtang with some guilt, "Tangtang, Dad is cooking now, so I can't play with you, how about you go to Grandma Zhang's house to play for a while?"
