Chapter Seventy-Four: The Grocery Store and the Seed I

Zhao Yu listened to the conversation between the two while looking up at the woman standing behind the counter, talking to her grandmother with her mouth open.

Zhao Yu sighed in his heart, it was really not easy, he could finally see it clearly.

Although the counter covers most of the other party's body, only the upper part of the exposed part can be seen.

But that's enough.

Zhao Yu looked at it quietly for a moment, and said in his heart that this woman looked not young, at least forty years old.

What's more, her grandmother calls her sister, this person must be older than her grandmother.

The upper part of the woman's exposed body is a little round, her face is the kind of round and jade disc-shaped, her facial features look ordinary, but her skin is fair, and her smiling eyes make it easy to make people feel good just by looking at it.

looked up and looked at Li, who was chatting with the woman and smiling.

Zhao Yuxin said that with such a look and a talkative personality, it is no wonder that this woman would talk to her grandmother so well.

It's really good material for dry sales!

Zhao Yu looked at the woman intently, such a focused attention was easy to detect for this woman who has been dealing with all kinds of people all year round and has sensitive eyes.

Although there is no malice in such a gaze, it still makes the woman a little uncomfortable.

In the process of small talk, the woman quietly lowered her head and used the corner of her eye to sneak a glance at the person who dared to peek at her.

Unexpectedly, the owner of the sight was actually a child.

The eyes of the two met in mid-air, and Zhao Yu didn't react yet, and in the next second, the woman took the lead in moving it away.

At the same time, she couldn't help muttering in her heart, this kid is not small.

Sneaking to see that someone was caught, and he didn't panic.

looked at the Li family, who was talking to her in a light voice, and noticed the hands held between the two, and the woman suddenly realized that this was the female baby brought by the Li family.

In the next second, the woman's voice changed, and the words finally brought Zhao Yu directly to the side.

"This is your child, those eyes and nose, but I really follow the girl, this little face is so beautiful, people can't help but be happy when they look at it."

Laughing and praising two kind words, the woman lifted the wooden board on the side with one hand, and walked out from behind the counter with a slightly thick body.

Zhao Yu saw that the other party's whole body was exposed, and said in her heart that this person was more burly and strong than she imagined.

It's not ugly, though.

Probably thanks to the woman's face, looking kind and tight.

The woman came out, and at the same time had an extra plate with pastries in her hand.

beckoned to Zhao Yu, and called people to him with a smile.

"Child, come over and let Aunt Qian take a good look,"

Zhao Yu was still stunned, and was suddenly pushed to Qian Yanfang by a slap from the Li family on the side.

Before she could react, her shoulders were already held by a pair of big white and fat hands.

Looking up, Zhao Yu saw a fair-skinned face like a disc appear in his field of vision.

"Oh, it's so close, but it's getting more and more like you, girl, very beautiful."

"Good boy, Aunt Qian doesn't have any good things here, you take this pastry first, it's been a long time, and you'll pad your stomach first."

As she spoke, the woman put the pastries in her hand on the plate and stuffed them into Zhao Yu's arms.

Zhao Yu is a villain, where is there so much strength as a woman.

Helpless, she had no choice but to drag the pastries with both hands to put them on the plate, raised her head, and asked for help from the Li family beside her.

Li Shi looked at Coke and couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.

Before Zhao Yu was about to go crazy, Li Shi smoothly took the pastries in the other party's hand and put them on the plate.

Then he said to Zhao Yu, "Erya, thank you Aunt Qian." ”

Zhao Yu smiled and said sweetly, "Thank you, Aunt Qian." ”

Such words came out of the mouth of a small radish head, and naturally won a lot of praise from the woman.

Zhao Yu......

Zhao Yu was shy on the surface, but he was actually very happy in his heart.

The villain was so dizzy from praise that she didn't react until her milk led her aside.

Pulling out a chair from inside, Li picked up Zhao Yu and did it.

Then put the plate where Zhao Yu could touch it.

bowed her head and told Zhao Yu to let her stay here, while she herself went back to the woman.

With a light smile on her face, the woman was back behind the counter.

Speaking of the reason between the two, we have to start from ten years ago.

The woman's name is Qian Yanfang, and her husband was the shopkeeper of the grocery store at the beginning.

Later, her man became seriously ill and died.

At that time, in order to take care of the children and the elderly at home, Qian Yanfang had to come out to take care of the grocery store business.

It was also from that time that Qian Yanfang became familiar with the Li family, who always came to buy seeds.

The two have good tempers and can talk together, so they come and go, and they slowly get together and become good friends.

Over the years, both sides have also known the roots.

During the New Year's holidays, you can also visit each other.

Quietly approached Qian Yanfang, Li rubbed his hands, and explained to Qian Yanfang quite embarrassed, "Sister Qian, I'm really embarrassed, the family has been very busy recently, a few days ago, those vegetable melon seeds ordered here in your house only got free to come and get them today." ”

Qian Yanfang hurriedly waved her hand, with a smile on her face as usual, "Hey, what are you talking about, with our relationship, I can't wait for you for a few more days, eldest sister?" ”

"Besides, I've also heard that the fish business in the city is doing very well these days, and your place is not a good place to produce fish?"

"Don't worry, I understand."

While talking, Qian Yanfang did not forget to bend down and take out a seed wrapped in oilskin paper from the cabinet under her, and then pushed it straight to Li.

"Quickly open and count, there are a total of thirty vegetable melon seeds, all of which are newly planted this year,"

"I snatched it from those people on purpose,"

"Keep the vegetable melons you grow, they are bigger and sweeter than before."

Li Shi smiled when he heard this, hurriedly opened the oilskin paper in his hand, and said words of thanks vigorously, "This is all the credit of Sister Qian, without you, where can I buy these good seeds back." ”

Qian Yanfang waved her hand again and again after hearing this, "Yo, you can't take it, it's also your luck, others, didn't you catch up." ”

Li Shi didn't follow, "Eldest sister, you can't say that, if you don't help me, how can I have this luck." What he said was said in Qian Yanfang's heart.

Although Qian Yanfang still waved her hand, the smile on her face was more than before.

Obviously, she is very useful to Li's words.

In the oilskin paper, there is a small pile of flat and slender vegetable melon seeds.

It's white, it's bulging in the middle, and you can tell at a glance that it's a good seed.

The vegetable melon here is a bit like the slender and slender loofah, with a light green skin, white inside, enough moisture, and resistant to storage, which is an indispensable home-cooked dish in winter.

Confirming that it was thirty plump seeds, Lee carefully re-wrapped them.

"Sister Qian, your family, there are other seeds, I have to buy some now."

When Qian Yanfang heard this, she hurriedly smiled and teased, "That's good, it seems that your family's business is really good, from now on, you can take care of your eldest sister's business more." ”

When Li heard this, he grinned, but he didn't answer.

Seeing this, Qian Yanfang also knew that the other party didn't want to say more, so she stopped what she had just said, and she didn't continue to ridicule.

Bending over, Qian Yanfang took out a heavy camphor wood box from under the counter.

Bang –

Suddenly put it on the counter, Qian Yanfang patted her palms, took out the key hanging on her waist to open the lock on the box, and took out all kinds of seeds wrapped in oiled paper from the box.

According to the name above, Qian Yanfang took out these seeds one by one and listened to the Li family on the side seriously.

For example, cucumber, here called courgette, cabbage, here called song, there are also vegetables such as leeks, sunflowers, melons, eggplants, peas, cowpeas, spinach, lettuce, cranberries, radish, winter melon and so on......

Li was dazzled, but he didn't expect that there were so many seeds that could be planted.

Just like Zhao Fuxiang likes food, his family has money, and he likes to buy grain, Li's favorite thing in the past is to tinker with the four-point vegetable plot in her backyard vegetable garden.

So now that she saw these seeds, she couldn't help but want to buy them.

There was no money before, but she could control it a little, and what Qian Yanfang kept was some seeds that ordinary farmers often planted.

Now that he has money in his hand, the Li family will naturally not be polite.

Facing the seeds that Qian Yanfang took out, Li waved his hand arrogantly, asking for thirty seeds of each.

Don't underestimate these thirty seeds.

Seeds, all are precious.

Even the cheapest vegetable melon seeds cost a penny.

These seeds from the box are more expensive than vegetable melons.

When Qian Yanfang heard Li's words, she said in her heart that this is a big deal!

At that moment, he picked out thirty grains of each of each that Li asked for.

Good guys, dozens of paper bags, all wrapped up, and carefully calculated several big bucks.
