v1 Chapter 23: .Being delivered an egg (sorry, it’s a
April 20, the annual Easter.
Since it’s dark in the early morning, I bid farewell to Kevin Hughes, the owner of the ‘Hughes Convenience Store’ on the main street of the town.
Considering that today is Easter, Hughes did not think much about it. He estimated that it should be government workers and volunteers who are installing props.
Look at the time it was a little over five, Hughes also got up from the bed, his wife opened her eyes in a daze and asked, "My dear, why do you get up so early?"
Hughes dotingly kissed his wife on the cheek, and said: "Silly girl, I have to put chocolate in the eggs on the bedside of the children before they wake up."
After getting dressed, Hughes brought the gifts he prepared for the children into the small bedroom quietly. Looking at the two sleeping children, he smiled contentedly and said, "They are really two angels. Thank the Lord for giving them. Me and Vivienne."
Everything was prepared, Hughes opened the door of the convenience store without much work, so that the noise from the street was even louder. He went out to take a look and was immediately surprised.
I saw that the previously deserted and lonely street became extremely lively, and the entire crossroads were almost filled with easter eggs!
These easter eggs are balloons with a radius of about 20 centimeters. They are colorful and colorful, floating in the air and blown by the wind, just like a sea of eggs.
Beside the intersection, there is a young man who Hughes does not know who is adjusting the speaker equipment, and the noise is coming out of it.
In addition, a few people continued to inflate the colorful balloons with their inflators, but they would stuff something into the balloons every time they hit the balloons.
Hughes was watching curiously, and finally heard someone calling him: "Kevin, did you bother you? I'm very sorry."
Following the voice, Hughes realized that he was talking to the legendary Auerbach lawyer, and said hurriedly: "Oh, Mr. Auerbach, you are so kind, nothing, I'm just curious about what this is doing. "
Auerbach smiled and walked over, pulling up the young man on the ground and saying: "This is Qin, Old Qin's grandson, hey, Qin, this is Kevin, our town's basketball player."
Naturally, it was Qin Shiou who debugged the speaker just now.
Qin Shiou shook hands with Hughes. The latter was more than 1.9 meters old, about 30 years old, with large bones, strong muscles, and particularly slender legs. At first glance, he was an athlete.
"You are Qin? Ha, man, you are a hot topic recently. Are you from the mysterious China? Welcome, welcome, welcome to farewell town." Hughes laughed, "but I want to know, you are here What's up?"
Qin Shiou introduced himself, and then said: "This is a good activity in China, called smashing golden eggs. As for the specifics, please forgive me. This is to be kept confidential."
Hughes didn't care, laughed, and stepped forward to help Qin Shiou adjust the speakers.
Until 6 o’clock, there were more talented people on the street. Today’s weather was very good, and the morning sun was surging, which quickly swept away the cold left over at night in the extreme north.
As people took to the streets, convenience stores in various shopping malls opened, and the candy related to the chocolate egg candy was placed in the most conspicuous place. Looking in from the window, a variety of candies are placed on the shelves.
Qin Shiou was celebrating Easter for the first time, and was curious about everything, so he went to the convenience store in Hughes to stroll around.
Hughes enthusiastically made him a cup of coffee. Seeing Qin Shiou's interest, he introduced him to the candies for sale: "There are probably two types, the smaller one is called fondant, which is one inch long. A layer of chocolate with a sweet and soft dough inside. The price is only 10 cents."
"The other kind is empty eggs, that is, the guy who looks like a duck egg in front of you. In fact, there is nothing in this, but it is wrapped in a chocolate shell. If you want to eat it, you can break it and eat chocolate chips."
Qin Shiou understood for a while. When he went out, he saw some children curiously watching the floating balloon pile at the intersection. He bought a pile of fondant and chocolate eggs, and walked over to share it with the children. These children immediately became excited.
There is no activity on Easter morning. After lunch, when the weather gets warmer, the Easter parade will begin.
The town of Farewell is relatively small and has a small population, so the procession is not big, there are only fifty or sixty people. These people wear long robes and hold crosses and walk barefoot on the street. Every time they pass by the door of the residence, onlookers will cheer them. .
Auerbach introduced Qin Shiou that these marchers pretended to be Christian historical figures and sang carols to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.
After the procession circled the main street of the town, it walked to the church at the east end of the town. Auerbach explained to Qin Shiou: “Next, the believers go to the church to baptize, and then put on their own new ones. Robes, celebrate the new birth of Christ, and then clean up your residence. It’s a bit like your New Year."
Qin Shiou smiled and said, "Yes, it's really similar."
The two walked to the church together. There were lily petals everywhere on the road, and most of them were lily lilies. The fragrance of this kind of flower was very strong, so the whole street seemed to be turned into a garden.
The closer to the church, the more crowded the crowd. Suddenly a young man in his twenties walked up to Qin Shiou and handed him a red egg.
Qin Shiou thought it was a gift, so he received it. Auerbach laughed and hurried to Qin Shiou's ear and said in a low voice, "This is a love egg, man, you are sure you want to accept the lovely young man in front of you. Show of love?"
When I heard this, Qin Shiou almost scared to pee. Do you still have this saying next door? He didn't find it online before.
As a pure man, Qin Shiou’s sexual orientation is natural, so when Auerbach finished speaking, he immediately returned the red egg to the young man.
The young man looked disappointed. Auerbach winked at Qin Shiou and said, “This is a handsome guy, boy, look at his eyes, they look like sapphires; look at his skin, it’s as smooth as silk...”
Qin Shiou saw that the white youth was still looking at him, so he helplessly put aside his hands and said: "Sorry, man, I am Chinese. We cannot marry a foreigner, otherwise I will be expelled by the family."
The white youth was disappointed to leave after hearing these words. Qin Shiou wiped off his cold sweat. His damn, his charm has reached the point of killing men and women? Why didn't you find it in China before?
The church in the farewell town is not small. It occupies about two thousand square feet. It has a pointed roof with a cross inserted on it. The main building is made of wood, which looks unique.
However, this church should be quite old, and traces of repairs can be seen in many parts of the outer wall. Some of the colored windows are broken and can only be made up with colored paper.
After walking in, you can find more problems. For example, the tables and chairs are old and worn, and the bible paintings on the walls have faded.
Entering the church, Auerbach became serious. He took Qin Shiou in line to receive the baptism. When the latter stood under the statue of Jesus, he folded his hands and ten fingers together, and began to pray with low eyebrows:
"Jesus God will definitely bless me, the ability of my heart of the ocean will not disappear, and I will make more money in the future, as long as I earn the first billion in my life, I will definitely come to reshape the golden body for you-ah, no, it's for you to renovate Church."
Seeing Qin Shiou’s piously closed eyes in prayer, the priest in charge of the baptism smiled, but if he knew what this kid was thinking, he would probably smash Qin Shiou’s brain directly with the baptismal basin.
After the baptism is over, the Easter event begins. Qin Shiou and Auerbach return to the Shizuzu intersection, where a host desk has been set up, and the background of the host desk is a complicated strokes of characters.
¥¥¥¥Today, the guy who was serving as a soldier in Beijing took time off from the barracks. He had a meal with him and recalled the **** years back then, so it was a little late, sorry, I’m very sorry~!
