Chapter 16 Pickpockets
"Smack ~"
After the song was sung, the three of them applauded together.
Jie Ting said modestly: "I haven't had a throat twitch for several days, I'm a little dry!"
Zhou Xiu said sincerely: "It's already very good! To be honest, it sounds better than more than 90% of the singers I've ever heard."
Tang Yaru covered her mouth and smiled: "Grandma Tingting is a master of Peking Opera, and she also has a father who is a music teacher. In addition, she has good innate conditions, so she has cultivated such a freak."
Zhou Xiu felt moved when he heard this, "No wonder he sang so well!"
He finally remembered why Jie Ting had such conditions and had not become famous yet?
In fact, a record company has come to see her for a long time, but her mother firmly opposes her daughter entering the entertainment industry and becoming a star.
Until after meeting the protagonist.
In other words, this is the willpower of the dog author...
Jiang Yuxin pushed the frame on her nose and smiled and said, "Don't praise her anymore, praise her again, and it's time to lift her tail up."
Xie Ting laughed and said, "My singing is just as good as you said!"
Zhou Xiu looked at her bright smile and couldn't help but reach out to rub her head.
This is what first love looks like!
But he reached halfway through his hand and quickly pulled it back, scratching his head.
Too embarrassing...
He is not familiar with him, so he will be beaten to touch his head rashly!
Tang Yaru saw his intention and secretly covered her mouth and smiled.
Then Jiang Yuxin and Tang Yaru cleaned up the dining table and washed the dishes.
Zhou Xiu and Jie Ting continued to hang out on the sofa to watch the shameless people.
"Hey, there is a dishwasher, I haven't seen it before."
"Zhou Xiu, where is the dishwashing powder?"
"I don't know, you guys look for it."
"Don't you know where the dishwashing powder is in your house?"
"I just bought the house, but I haven't even entered the kitchen."
“…”
...
At 4:30 pm, the bathroom was ready.
After the decoration master left, Jiang Yuxin went in and wiped the floor clean, and then planned to go to the vegetable market to buy groceries.
All the ingredients I bought at noon have been eaten up.
She felt a little depressed when she thought of this.
Originally, the vegetables I bought in the morning were brought for the evening, but who knew that Zhou Xiu could eat so much that one person ate more than the three of them.
It's simply a living bucket.
I don’t know how he can hold his stomach?
"No need to buy vegetables, go out to eat." Zhou Xiu stood up and went into the room, "I'll go change my clothes, you call your friend up."
"Oh~" Jiang Yuxin got up and went to the guest room.
Xie Ting and Tang Yaru couldn't hold on at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, so they went to the guest room to sleep in beauty, and they haven't gotten up yet.
When they opened the door, they saw that the two of them were still sleeping soundly, and their sleeping appearance was particularly ugly.
Xie Ting is full of image as a tomboy.
Tang Yaru curled up into a ball, the big white pear on her chest was deformed, and she was drooling, and a large number of them were wet on the mat.
Jiang Yuxin said angrily and hilariously: "Two pigs, get up and go for supper!"
"Mmmmmmmmmmm..."
The two of them whispered and it took a while to get up.
Tang Yaru wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's five o'clock!"
"Oh! I promised the Empress Dowager to go back today, why did she oversleep?"
Tang Yaru hurriedly got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face.
Xie Ting sat in a daze on the rattan chair next to the floor-to-ceiling window.
He picked up the mineral water on the table and took a sip, and asked softly, "Are you off work?"
Jiang Yuxin shook her head.
Xie Ting asked: "What time does your class go to what time? How do you calculate the salary? It has been 9 hours since the morning and now. It is 270 yuan per hour!"
"have no idea!"
Jiang Yuxin is actually thinking about this question too.
But she was embarrassed to ask Zhou Xiu.
It's too vulgar to talk about money all the time.
"You!" Jie Ting shook her head, "I'll ask you later~"
Jiang Yuxin hesitated and said, "Let's not want it!"
"I want it! It's better to be a villain first and a gentleman later."
"Oh well……"
The four of them went out together.
Tang Yaru's relatives got married. There was a wedding banquet in the evening and went back to have a wedding banquet.
Zhou Xiu and the other two drove to Dongguan Street to eat casually and then went shopping.
"Dongguan Street" is the most famous historical old street in Xiuzhou except for the Slender West Lake. It is connected to the Dongguan Ancient Ferry, and the streets are filled with specialties and delicious food.
As an indigenous Jie Ting, some famous attractions in the city have long been ruined.
There is a lack of interest along the way.
The most important thing is that it is too hot and I sweated after walking a few steps. The T-shirt is sticky and sticky to my body, which is very uncomfortable.
Although Zhou Xiu and Jiang Yuxin are from this city, they are not from the city. Although they have been here before, they still feel very fresh.
The two of them watched with interest along the way.
As for the heat, Zhou Xiu didn't care.
Jiang Yuxin was very afraid of heat, but yesterday she discovered something magical. As long as she approached Zhou Xiu, the temperature around her would drop, which was like a human-shaped air conditioner.
So she followed Zhou Xiu in the front and back.
As I walked along the way, I didn't have a drop of sweat on my head.
As night falls, the colorful lights of the store light up, rendering Dongguan Street colorful like a city that never sleeps.
Tourists from all over the country are shoulder to shoulder.
And such places are often the favorites of pickpockets!
In 2012, online payment was in its infancy, and people basically used cash when traveling.
This year can be said to be the last highlight of a pickpocket!
When smartphones emerge next year and online payment begins to spread widely, pickpockets, a career that has been passed down for thousands of years, will slowly retire from the historical stage!
Along the way, Zhou Xiu saw at least four or five incidents of pickpockets pursuing bags.
He has not said anything.
But when he saw a thin monkey pickpocket passing away a pair of gray-haired old couple's purse for money, he finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Pinch the other person's wrist.
Zhou Xiu has now practiced to the bronze bone realm.
The skin is as hard as iron and the bones are as hard as copper.
He grabbed it as if he was caught by a vise.
"Ah... it hurts... let go!"
The thin monkey pickpocket immediately squatted on the ground, holding his right wrist with his left hand, and screamed heart-wrenchingly.
Tourists around retreated one after another.
Xie Ting, who was originally depressed, suddenly felt enlightened when she saw this situation: "What's going on?"
Jiang Yuxin was timid and didn't dare to say anything.
Zhou Xiu didn't understand Ting, so he reached out to pull out the purse from the thin monkey pickpocket and handed it to the confused old lady next to him, "Your wallet."
"Ah..." The old lady touched her pants and found that the wallet inside disappeared at some point, "Thank you, young man!"
The crowd immediately understood when they saw it.
"Catch the thief!"
"This is not a thief, but a professional pickpocket."
"Not bad! You see, he is holding tweezers in his hand, and you will know that he is professional at first glance."
"Ah...my wallet is gone..."
Just as everyone was talking, some travelers in the crowd found that their wallet was missing.
Zhou Xiu's hands relaxed a little, and the thin monkey pickpocket took advantage of the situation and pulled his wrist violently, then escaped from the gap in the crowd.
"Oh, why did he let him run away? Chase him!"
"Forget it, don't chase the defeated enemy!"
"Yes, these people are not easy to mess with. Everyone should pay attention to their own property."
Zhou Xiu took advantage of everyone's discussion and led Jiang Yuxin and Jie Tingli into the crowd.
Jie Ting said excitedly: "Zhou Xiu, you are so awesome, how did you find pickpockets?"
Zhou Xiu glanced at her, "Why are you so excited?"
Jie Ting laughed and said, "I always heard of pickpockets. This is the first time I have seen a real pickpocket today! Unfortunately, you let it go."
Jie Ting is not blind.
The pickpocket who Zhou Xiu could pinch with one hand knelt on the ground and beg for mercy. You can imagine how strong he is?
If he hadn't intentionally let the pickpocket go, that pickpocket wouldn't have escaped!
Zhou Xiu shook his head and ignored her.
These pickpockets are not thieves, they are all organized.
Just now, there were at least several accomplices in the crowd.
If the fight starts, I will definitely go to the police station today.
Too troublesome.
The three of them continued shopping.
After the pickpocket storm, Jie Ting soon became less interested.
The most important thing is that it was too hot and she felt sweat in the crowd, and her aunt's scarf was almost wet.
"Let's go back?" Jie Ting said in a begging for mercy.
Zhou Xiu nodded, "Yeah! Let's go."
It is the summer vacation now, and there are too many tourists, and all the shops along the way are crowded.
I want to go in and take a rest, but I don’t even have any place to get the pins.
"Ah, it's great, I'm finally back!" Jie Ting was very happy when she heard this.
As for Jiang Yuxin, she naturally had no objection.
Anyway, wherever Zhou Xiu's human-shaped air conditioner goes, she will go.
Three people walked back.
Leaving Dongguan Street, we came to the parking place.
Zhou Xiu felt a subconscious feeling of hostility coming.
He turned around and saw three or four men approaching them with great might.
Among them is the skinny monkey pickpocket before!
Zhou Xiu felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
Chapter completed!
