Chapter 57 57. Auntie buys groceries
Hurry up and hurry up, it’s still a little late when you get to the vegetable market.
At the end of March, the weather is getting warmer, and the vegetables in the vegetable market are becoming more and more dazzling.
As soon as Song Tan set up the basket, she saw the vendor next door looking at her eagerly.
Since the stall owner next door bought a handful of milkvetch that time, she still has to look at the pile of vegetables in front of her with that kind of tangled look every day. She is used to it now.
Speaking of which, the vegetable seller felt bitter.
He couldn't forget the dish from the girl next door after eating it once. But I am also a vegetable seller. If I go to buy next door, isn’t that pitting myself against the enemy? What do customers think after seeing it?
So I fight in my heart every day and have all kinds of entanglements. When I finally made up my mind to buy...
Yes, people have also closed their stalls.
Today, he was still trapped in this tangled circle, turning a blind eye to the juicy, tender cabbage on the stall in front of him.
Song Tan saw it inadvertently, but was a little greedy.
After all, to her, milkvetch with added spiritual energy was also milkvetch, and after eating it for so many days, she was really tired of it.
But Chinese cabbage is different.
The taste is crisp, without a hint of bitterness, and the growth cycle is short. It can be harvested in ten or twenty days at the fastest. There are also chicken feathers, which can grow in large handfuls...
If you use spiritual energy to induce birth, maybe two weeks will be enough.
Looking at it this way, the milkvetch store is about to end in about a week. After that, there will be a few days of empty window, allowing customers to calm down for a few days, save more money, and then—
Serious vegetables attack!
Song Tan made a decision immediately:
This afternoon I urge Qiao Qiao to dig the vegetable garden and sow the seeds at night!
…
The two hundred kilograms of milkvetch brought today are still very popular.
Since there is no need to weigh people and the money given is always in round numbers, everyone scans the QR code to pay in a familiar way. Qiaoqiao has received less cash recently.
His movements are becoming more and more proficient now. As long as he doesn't speak, there is no problem at all. Aunt Mao Li walked in the vegetable market for a long time. When she saw a group of people crowded together in front of her, she couldn't help but get closer.
“Hey, what is that for?”
She asked the vegetable seller in front of her, while she broke off a leaf from the cabbage on her hand.
The vegetable seller was also watching, and when he heard this, he subconsciously replied:
“I’m selling milk vetch, it’s twenty yuan a pound…”
The words spoken were sour and greedy.
However, turning his head to look at the actions of the aunt in front of him, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Hey, hey, why are you giving me this little cabbage? If you want to buy it, just buy it."
Mao Li continued to break them confidently: "I want to buy vegetables, and I definitely can't want these old leaves. I'll break them off first, don't worry, I will definitely want the ones that have been broken off."
The vegetable seller stopped her and said, "Sister, the Chinese cabbage has not grown at all this season. How can there be any old leaves? If you want it, buy it. If you don't buy it, don't waste it."
Mao Li then got angry: "Who said I won't buy it? Why don't I keep buying it? How much does it cost per pound!"
“Six dollars and five.”
“Tsk,” Mao Li sighed: “You vegetable sellers are really getting more and more evil. No one wants to give this to the countryside for free.”
There are many people like this in the vegetable market. They wear big gold chains and small bracelets, and it takes a long time to buy vegetables.
Mao Li failed to bargain. She hummed and stuffed the six or seven chopped cabbages into the bag: "Weigh them for me."
Then he pulled out another bag and put the vegetable leaves that he had just broken into: "No one wants these old leaves, so I'll pack them up and take them away."
It’s all done, it was too late to stop them just now. Now if they turn around and say no, how can we still beat people in a society governed by the rule of law? The vegetable seller had no choice but to weigh her with a dark face: "Seven yuan."
Mao Li, who was familiar with everything, dug out the change in the small bag at her waist:
“What age do you still want fifty cents? Just seven yuan.”
The vegetable seller patted the QR code in front of him: "Scan the code."
His face was dark and gloomy. Mao Li didn't dare to go too far for the moment, so she could only muttered to scan the code and muttered that she would never come again next time.
The vegetable vendor was so angry that he turned around to look again, only to see that the man in front of him was watching the milkvetch seller closing his stall, so he squeezed past him!
…
Mao Li also saw her niece after everyone dispersed here - yes, this milkvetch is not a good thing, she is probably the only one in the entire vegetable market.
But looking at everyone carrying full pockets just now, she felt a little sour in her heart.
“Tantan, you said you are a college student, and I thought you were just joking, but I didn’t expect you to actually be selling vegetables here? Oh, look at this lively scene, you are already famous for it!”
Qiaoqiao’s face instantly wrinkled: “Auntie, Qiaoqiao also sells vegetables!”
Mao Li glanced at him, ignored him, and praised Song Tan again:
“You are such a beautiful kid, and you are so hard-working. I will wait for my aunt to help you find a good partner, and you will save yourself the trouble of staying in the city in the future.”
She lowered her voice: "Don't worry, you are beautiful and well-educated. When the time comes, I will help your family get more bride price, so Qiao Qiao won't have to worry about money when she gets married."
Song Tan raised his eyebrows: What do you mean?
It would be hard to find it here.
She also put on a fake smile: "Auntie, are you here to buy groceries? There are just three kilograms left, a total of sixty yuan."
As soon as the price came out, Mao Li froze while squatting on the ground picking through the three bundles of vegetables.
“Twenty yuan a pound?”
She said in disbelief: "You kid, no matter how much you want to make money, you can't do this! This milkvetch is too bad for cows to eat, and my own relatives still charge twenty yuan a pound?"
She stood up with a serious face: "Tantan, if you do this, I, as an elder, will criticize you."
“You can sell vegetables, and our family doesn’t think it’s embarrassing for you. We are all working people.”
"I originally didn't plan to come to buy. This vegetable market is too far away and the things are expensive. Your sister-in-law is kind-hearted and said that her relatives should come to take care of the business no matter what. I did come here, but you, a kid, are selling If the food is not authentic, why don’t you talk about family ties?”
Song Tan also looked indifferent: "Auntie, I gave you five catties of vegetables for twenty yuan a catty last time. Isn't this enough for family ties?"
“The entire vegetable market knows that my vegetables are priced at this price. If you want to eat them, then buy them, regardless of whether they take care of them or not. I have no shortage of customers.”
"As for whether it's authentic or not...my stuff is good and worth the price. If you can't bear to part with it, the aunt behind me is still waiting for you."
As expected, there was an aunt behind her. She was wearing a silk coat, a green bracelet in her hand, and her hair was meticulously styled. She looked much more respectable than the eldest aunt.
She was watching the fun - not only her, but also the vegetable vendors around here came to watch the fun.
Unexpectedly, he was suddenly called by his name, and he was very proud at this moment: "Yes, the little girl's food is good, our family buys food from him every day - no, the little girl came a little late this morning, and my daughter didn't go to work Wait, ask me to come over again."
While skillfully scanning the QR code for Qiaoqiao to pay, he said, "Good boy, give the remaining three handfuls to my aunt to pack."
