Chapter 293 Fat Brother and Fat Sister
He Shuqiang was on vacation and Sun Shan was free, so after lunch, the two of them wandered around.
Hejia Village has changed a lot, with many new houses and more people.
He Shuqiang introduced as he walked.
Sun Shan asked him about his situation at Guangya College.
He Shuqiang gave a bitter account, emphasizing that life in the school was difficult, he didn't eat well, he didn't sleep well, and no one wanted to play with him.
Sun Shan was afraid that he would be bullied because of his body shape, so he quickly asked if he was being bullied.
He Shuqiang shook his head and said, "They talk about me behind my back, but never to my face. Thanks to my great grandfather, who is a high-ranking official, my classmates dare not offend me."
Sun Shan understood that if one could study in the academy, even if he was a fool, his parents would tell him the background of every student in person, and everyone would know clearly who he could offend and who he could not.
The He family is a big family in the local area, and Qiang Ge'er is the main branch. Even if they don't like him, they will only say it behind his back. How can a fool say it to his face?
Sun Shan stole a few glances at He Shuqiang, who was currently drooling as he stared at the delicious food on the street.
I was secretly glad that Brother Qiang was cheerful and lively, and did not become gloomy and give up on himself because of being laughed at by his classmates.
After walking for half an hour, Qiang Ge'er was panting heavily. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Brother Shan, I'm tired. Let's find a place to eat."
Sun Shan was speechless. He was tired after only half an hour. It turned out that he lacked exercise even more than him.
The two men found a teahouse to have tea. As for snacks, Sun Shan did not order any, but asked the shopkeeper to bring a plate of hawthorns.
Qiang Ge'er pouted and said, "Brother Shan, I want to eat shrimp dumplings, steamed siu mai, steamed spareribs, and spring rolls."
Brother Shan is too stingy. He only ordered a plate of hawthorn. Is the doctor shy?
Brother Qiang said generously: "Brother Shan, you finally came here, I will treat you today."
Sun Shan looked at the sky outside. It was around 1 p.m.
They just had lunch at noon, and Qiang Ge'er ate again? No wonder he's so fat.
He shook his head and said, "No, I just had a full meal. Drink some tea and eat some hawthorn to help digest the food."
Qiang Ge'er reluctantly turned his eyes away from the table full of snacks opposite him, picked up a piece of hawthorn, and began to eat it with relish.
Brother Qiang asked, "Brother Shan, are you coming here to apply for the college entrance examination this time?"
Sun Shan nodded: "Yes, I want to study in Guangzhou Prefecture. First I need to find a good college."
So Qiang Ge'er told Sun Shan about the academy he knew about, encouraged him to do well in the exam, and believed that the smart Sun Shan would definitely be able to pass.
Qiang Geer said with a smile: "Brother Shan, you came to Guangzhou to study. When you are on vacation, I will go out to play with you and take you to eat delicious food. Guangzhou is a food capital, there are many delicious foods."
Sun Shan wanted to persuade Qiang Ge'er not to eat so much, but then he thought better of it. They had just met today, so it was not appropriate to lecture him too much. He would definitely talk to him properly next time.
After having tea and resting for a while, the two prepared to get up and leave to continue shopping.
Suddenly, Brother Qiang said to the person who just came in, "Big sister, why are you here?"
Sun Shan followed Qiang Ge'er's gaze.
Good guy!
This scared Sun Shan again.
The people in front were He Chunyuan and her little maid.
But Sister Yuan, are you too fat?
Qiang Ge'er has three Sunshans, and Yuan Jie'er has two Sunshans.
His face was full of fat, but his big eyes were not squeezed. He was round, with fat hands and feet, and a lot of fat. He was just one size smaller than Qiang Ge'er.
No wonder Qiang Ge'er wrote a letter saying that his classmates at the girls' school laughed at Yuan Jie'er and called her a fat pig.
The two siblings of the He family haven't seen each other for many years. They are taller and fatter than before, and of course whiter than before.
He Shuqiang asked suspiciously, "Big sister, you're out for afternoon tea again?"
He Shuqiang has two younger sisters and a younger brother. Yuan Jie'er is naturally his eldest sister.
Yuan Jieer glanced at her brother He Shuqiang, then turned around and looked at Sun Shan, and shouted in surprise: "Brother Shan, is that you?"
Sun Shan bowed and greeted Yuan Jie'er, then said, "Yuan Jie'er, I haven't seen you for many years. Are you doing well?"
Yuan Jieer nodded, then shook her head and said sadly: "It was fine before, but it's not good recently?"
After saying this, he looked at Sun Shan with a bitter face, and said with envy: "Brother Shan, you are still so thin, how did you do it? Hey!"
Recently, or should I say a year ago, Madam He has forbidden Yuan Jie'er from eating and asked her to lose weight.
So Yuan Jieer felt particularly miserable and complained to Sun Shan, whom she hadn't seen for many years, saying frankly that it was not good.
Although Madam He's fasting was in place, unfortunately Yuan Jie'er's weight loss effect was extremely poor. Not only did she not lose weight, but she became fatter and fatter.
Sun Shan suddenly felt very sad. He was thinner than Yuan Jie'er, but it didn't matter.
But why is she shorter than Yuan Jie'er?
Sun Shan stood opposite Yuan Jie'er and clearly felt that she was half a head taller than him.
In an instant, Sun Shan was very depressed. He was two years older than Yuan Jie'er, but he was shorter than her.
We met by chance in a teahouse after not seeing each other for many days.
So the three of them plus a little maid continued to stay in the teahouse and chat.
Yuan Jieer said happily: "Brother Shan, I heard that you passed the exam to become a scholar. Oh, you are amazing!"
Sun Shan nodded and smiled without saying anything.
Since Sun Shan didn't need to say anything, Yuan Jieer continued, "Brother Shan, it's a great joy that you passed the exam to become a scholar. You have to treat us to dinner."
Sun Shan nodded and said, "Okay, let's drink tea and eat hawthorn."
He Shuqiang covered his mouth and laughed.
Yuan Jieer asked in confusion: "Brother Shan, why are you drinking tea and eating bandits? There are many other delicious foods."
Before Sun Shan could say anything, Qiang Ge'er interrupted him and said, "Big sister, Shan Ge and I were drinking tea and eating hawthorns just now. You should do the same. Don't eat anything else. If you continue to eat, hey..."
He glanced at He Chunyuan meaningfully, his meaning was self-evident.
He Chunyuan was furious and wanted to hit her brother, but when she saw Sun Shan was there, she held back.
She is a lady, virtuous and kind, and cannot be violent.
Sun Shan explained, "Yuan Jie'er, I heard from Shu Qiang that you should diet and maintain your health, so don't eat snacks. Drinking tea and eating hawthorns are good for your health."
He Chunyuan frowned and retorted, "How can you have the energy to diet if you don't eat enough? Brother Shan, I only diet after I finish eating."
He Shuqiang, Sun Shan, and the little girl standing beside him twitched their lips when they heard this.
No wonder I keep getting fatter and fatter. It turns out that I eat less after I am full. It doesn’t make sense that I can lose weight.
In the end, Sun Shan couldn't persuade Yuan Jie'er, and she ordered several dim sum at once, especially fried foods, which were her favorite.
Yuan Jie'er squinted her eyes while eating sweet and thin food and said, "Brother Shan, when did you come? What are you doing in Guangzhou? How did you pass the exam to become a scholar? You are the youngest scholar I have ever seen. Oh, I wish my brother was as good as you."
Yuan Jie'er didn't need Sun Shan to answer. She looked at He Shuqiang and said, "Brother, you should learn from Brother Shan. Brother Shan fished you out of the pond back then, and he can also help you fish out a scholar today."
He turned to Sun Shan and said, "Brother Shan, you have to teach my elder brother how to pass the exam. My grandparents were even stricter with my elder brother after hearing that you passed the exam. They also said that even someone from the village like you could pass the exam, and my elder brother, who lives a life of luxury, would be ashamed if he fails."
Sun Shan couldn't imagine Yuan Jie'er saying that.
Like He Shuqiang, he treats himself as a trash can and complains about everything.
From home to girls' school, from girls' school to classmates. Good things are said, bad things are also said.
The little maid next to her blinked several times, but Yuan Jie'er pretended not to see it.
Finally, Yuan Jie'er and Qiang Ge'er ate all the snacks on the table. Before leaving, Yuan Jie'er said crisply, "Brother Shan, next time we go out to play, let's come to this teahouse. The food is delicious."
Qiang Geer nodded and said, "Brother Shan, the food in this teahouse is indeed good, but next time we should not come here, let's find another one and try something different."
The two siblings agreed with Sun Shan to get together again next time.
Of course, Sun Shan was still the host, because he was a scholar. Even if he was a poor scholar, he was still a scholar.
Sun Shan said goodbye to the fat brother and fat sister without looking back.
Next time? There won't be a next time.
If you want to make an appointment with him, just meet him at Aunt Sun’s yard and accompany him to practice calligraphy and read.
Yuan Jieer's favorite snack is thin cakes. There are sweet and salty ones. You can try it if you have the chance.
