Spring Again

Chapter 9

It takes only ten minutes to ride a motorcycle for a ten-kilometer journey, winding the winding mountain road through the long forest of camphor trees, and at the end is the town.

Many people came to the side court today. You can see local residents dressed in ethnic costumes from a distance. The streets paved with bluestone slabs are bustling and crowded, the crowds are crowded, and the entrance is blocked. No cars or cars can get in.

Ye Xiyan parked the car in front of a house outside the town, and paid the owner 20 yuan as a reward for seeing the car. After that, he took to the streets with confidence.

There are a wide variety of things sold at the Dali Mountain Market, which is no worse than other places. There are shops and stalls here, and there is also a small vegetable market near the entrance. Selling silver jewelry, selling traditional clothing, selling all kinds of food…

The shops along the street are all stone houses in the old-time style. The floors are generally low. The wooden windows and blue tiles and large panels reveal the charm of the ages everywhere.

Ye Xiyan took Jiang Xu to a place with few people, and squeezed it out of the crowded crowd for half a street before squeezing it out.

During the period, she gave Jiang Xu a hand, worrying that it would be difficult to find if she was separated.

Passing the three-way intersection, Jiang Xu almost ran into the oncoming big back basket, but Ye Xiyan quickly covered her with eyesight and hands, and hooked people back to the side of the road for two or three steps.

Jiang Xu was unprepared, and one of them nearly fell down and slammed into Ye Xiyan’s chest steadily.

It was an accident that the two of them held another hand in this way.

Ye Xiyan said: “Pay attention to the road.”

Jiang Xu straightened up and moved his lips, but he didn’t say a word at all.

The purchase process was not very smooth, the two did not speak the local dialect, and many older stall owners could not understand Mandarin, and the buyers and sellers had difficulties in verbal communication.

They first went to the tea shop, bought three bags of high-quality spring tea, then went to the vegetable market, and finally found the only liquor supermarket in the town.

It was the morning market, which was the busiest time in town.

The market in Dali Mountain is still in the semi-primitive period, unlike other places where you can only spend money to buy things, here you can barter.

Ye Xiyan and Jiang Xu watched several similar exchanges as soon as they arrived, and saw this strange trading method for the first time.

They entered the beverage supermarket to select drinks. A man wearing a magpie suit with a wool ribbon at the waist walked up to Ye Xiyan and asked in crappy Mandarin if she could exchange silver jewelry for her earrings.

Ye Xiyan was stunned for a moment, then tactfully refused.

Maybe it was because he didn’t understand her, the man re-explained his intentions and showed her the things for exchange. It was a beautifully crafted silver hairpin with green jade dotted on the tail. He wanted to use this in exchange for ear studs and give it to his wife.

Ye Xiyan still didn’t change, and shook his head resolutely.

Her ear studs are worth more than silver hairpins. Although they are not diamond-encrusted, the material and design are not cheap. The two gadgets together can reach a half-suite in Nancheng.

This is a specially customized masterpiece last year. It is impossible to change a birthday gift from someone else.

After being rejected, the look on the man’s face changed from disappointment to displeasure, and his friendly attitude was reversed 180 degrees, his face was fierce, and he muttered impatiently. I didn’t know what he was talking about.

It should be complaining or cursing.

Ye Xiyan frowned and looked straight at each other.

“what did you say?”

The man was extremely arrogant and sipped to the ground to show his disdain and provocation.

Ye Xiyan’s eyes sank.

The man turned around and left, still cursing.

Ye Xiyan raised his foot to keep up, but Jiang Xu grabbed it.

Jiang Xu stood in front of her, grabbed the man’s wrist, and said softly, “Go check out first.”

Ye Xi said nothing.

Jiang Xu took her to the other side, but never let go.

When the man left the beverage supermarket, Jiang Xu let go.

Ye Xiyan didn’t say a word, still carrying a bunch of things in his hand.

The owner of the liquor store is a Han compatriot. At the checkout, he told them that the man was a liar and was a habitual offender. He wore traditional Lisu costumes all day and night, but he was not a local Lisu resident, and he didn’t know what happened. Where did it come from? Anyway, it only selects tourists who are generous in shopping. The silver hairpin in his hand is a fake. Whoever changes it will lose money.

There are many such people in the town, who look honest and talk amiable, but actually rely on deception for their livelihood. Moreover, some scammers not only collect money under the guise of feelings, but also blackmail tourists.

The boss whispered: “When you see these people, stay away. Don’t go head-on. They don’t act alone. There is a group outside.”

The boss just now saw it and knew that Ye Xiyan had a dispute with the liar man.

Ye Xiyan’s expression eased slightly, and after a long while, he thanked him.

The boss waved his hand, “Nothing.”

At the checkout, Jiang Xu paid the bill, and went back later to repay the bill.

The boss filled them with drinks and sent them out. After confirming that there are no liars around, he said with confidence: “Go back early and don’t delay time outside. Next time you come out, remember to find a local person and be careful. ”

Ye Xiyan is not afraid of that liar, nor is he worried about being retaliated. She has been playing as a child. She has never seen any big scenes. How can she be scared by the rogue in such a small place, but in the face of the boss’s kind instructions, she still obeyed .

Besides, Jiang Xu is still there, so he still can’t mess around.

Leaving the liquor store, the two of them walked straight back to pick up the motorcycle.

After walking for a while, Jiang Xu suddenly asked: “Things are important?”

Ye Xiyan walked on the left, close to the bluestone road.

She didn’t quite understand which thing she was asking for a while, glanced at Jiang Xu, and asked back: “What?”

Jiang Xu didn’t look at her, but said softly, “Earrings.”

Earlier in the liquor store, Ye Xiyan resolutely rejected men like that, without even thinking about it, obviously he cared very much about this stuff.

Jiang Xu knew the goods and could see that the two ear studs were custom-made, not popular ones that could be bought casually. It must have been a gift given to Ye Xiyan with a lot of thought.

Ye Xiyan said dumbly.

“It took six months to get it from someone else.”

Jiang Xu glanced at her ear, “Boyfriend?”

She was stunned and immediately denied.

“No.”

Jiang Xu said nothing and didn’t ask any more.

When he walked to the parking place, Ye Xiyan said uncomfortably: “My brother gave it to me. I ordered two pairs at the time. My sister-in-law’s earrings and mine earrings.”

Gifts given by family members are naturally important, and others cannot compare them, otherwise she would not wear her ears for so long.

This is actually nothing to explain, but Ye Xiyan didn’t want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Probably the unique design style makes this thing look unusual and meaningful. Someone asked similar words in foreign countries, thinking it was a token of love from the object. She didn’t explain it before, so she couldn’t help but said it this time.

Jiang Xu didn’t seem to care much about this, as if he didn’t listen, he took off the helmet from the car and handed it to her.

Ye Xiyan thought this meant for help, so he put down the big and small bag in his hand, and put the helmet on Jiang Xu.

However, the other party moved first, leaned closer, stretched out a hand to help her straighten the slightly messy hair on her forehead, touched her side face with her fingertips, and then wiped her ears seemingly.

Jiang Xu was very close to her, a few steps away.

Ye Xiyan was stuck.

Jiang Xu said: “Don’t give it to me, you wear it yourself.”

She helped Ye Xiyan brush her hair behind her ears, and slowly moved her fingers down, caressing Ye Xiyan’s sensitive neck intentionally or unintentionally, intimate and ambiguous.
