Soon arrived at the vegetable market, although I don't know what is called the cluster effect, but the wisdom of the people is not to be underestimated, spontaneously achieved the effect of clustering: the vegetable seller is in one place, the chicken duck and goose are sold in one place, the pot and pan is sold in one place, and the basket and radish are in one place......

Now that the sky is bright, Lin Jing and the others came early, occupied two good positions, put down the back basket, spread out a piece of plastic film on the ground, and put the dishes on it neatly.

Lin Jing untied the small bench and let her daughter sit.

The old lady who sold vegetables next door saw Lin Jing's folded ear root and said, "Isn't this a folded ear root?" This thing is also being sold? ”

Lin Jing was a little embarrassed and said, "Children are playing." ”

The old lady glanced at Xiao Qinghe and sighed, "Is this a girl or a boy?" ”

Xiao Qinghe's dog-like hair is really easy to misunderstand.

Xiao Qinghe said softly: "Hello grandma, I'm a girl." ”

The old lady smiled and said: "What a polite and good boy, but I'm afraid no one will buy your folded ears, this thing has a big taste, and it tastes astringent, and not many people like it." Besides, this thing is all over the mountains, I really want to eat it, just dig a little bit in the mountains, who is willing to spend money to buy it? ”

Xiao Qinghe said: "Sprinkle some sugar when folding the ear root cold, and it will not be astringent." ”

The old lady laughed and said: "White sugar is such an expensive thing, who is willing to take it to the cold salad to fold the ear root?" ”

Xiao Qinghe pursed his lips and smiled, no matter when, there are always people who are not short of money, white sugar is indeed precious to ordinary people like them, but it is nothing to some people. Although Fengming Township is a small township, there must be people who are not short of money.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for an old woman in a green cloth jacket to come over and ask for a price.

"This is a folded ear, right? How is it sold? ”

Xiao Qinghe saw that her clothes were neat and tidy, and there was no patch, so he knew that she was living a good life, maybe she was still a person with status, and she had the intention of leaving a good impression on her, so she said crisply: "Hello grandma, this is what I went to dig on the field yesterday, and I picked the most tender ones, and I have been wrapping the roots in mud to keep them fresh, and I only washed them before going out today, as long as two cents a handful." ”

The old woman fiddled with it a few times, nodded and said, "It's really tender and fresh, this one is half a catty, right?" ”

"Yes, they are all half a catty, and the scales are all prosperous. Mom, you weighed grandma. ”

Lin Jing took a handful of folded ear roots and weighed them at random, dialed half a catty of crosshairs, and sure enough, the scale pole was raised high.

The old woman was satisfied: "I want two." ”

She carefully selected the two that she felt the best, saw the bamboo shoots next to her, and asked, "How are the bamboo shoots sold?" ”

Lin Jing said: "Nan bamboo shoots are eight points, and Ci bamboo shoots are one hair." ”

"It's a little more expensive......"

"Grandma, it's not expensive, look at this bamboo shoot, how tender it is, you pinch it and try it, isn't it very tender? You look at the bamboo shoots again, less than a foot, completely picking the most tender dug up. If you want to fry bacon, buy bamboo shoots, and if you want to fry fresh meat, buy bamboo shoots. ”

"Then weigh a pound of bamboo shoots."

Lin Jing hurriedly weighed her a catty, and she was about to pay, when Xiao Qinghe said again: "Grandma, do you want to buy some other dishes?" My lotus flowers are sweet and crisp, and the greens are very tender. You mix a folded ear root, fry a meat with bamboo shoots, fry a garlic lotus white, cook a green vegetable soup, there are meat and vegetarian, there is soup and dry, there is cold and hot, it is a perfect match. ”

The old woman laughed and said: "Oh, my saliva is flowing out, three dishes and one soup, this is the standard of cadres, my family can't afford to eat it." ”

Xiao Qinghe said: "Grandma is a cultured and status person at first glance, the family conditions must be good, you can't afford to eat, who else can afford to eat?" ”

Now that it has been a few years since the reform and opening up, people are no longer as ashamed to talk about money as they were ten years ago, the old woman was praised by Xiao Qinghe, and said with a smile: "You little girl can really talk, okay, then I will buy another lotus white, weighing two catties of greens." ”

Lin Jing hurriedly picked out the most beautiful lotus white for the old man, weighed it on the scale, four catties and two taels, and weighed two catties of tender green vegetables, and said: "Fold the ear root two handfuls of four cents, bamboo shoots one cent, green vegetables two catties and one hair, lotus white four catties and two taels of hair, a total of four cents and seven." ”

"Cheaper, four cents and five."

Xiao Qinghe hurriedly said: "Grandma, you can give four cents and seven cents, otherwise when I go home in a while, my mother will definitely count the two cents less on my head." Before I came, my mother said that the roots I dug were all mine. In this way, I will give you another handful of wild onions, and wild onions with folded ear roots are a perfect match. ”

The old woman laughed and quipped, "How much do you sell for a handful of wild onions?" Isn't it still a loss to give it to me for nothing? ”

"It's better to lose two cents for a penny of wild onions."

The old woman smiled and said, "You little girl is really good at business, okay, I'll give you four cents and seven cents." ”

When Xiao Qinghe heard this, he happily took a handful of wild onions and handed it to her, and said: "Grandma, I have a special skill in choosing folded ear roots, you go back and taste it, my folded ear roots must be better than what you usually eat, if you eat well, you will buy it next time you catch the market." ”

She tasted it this morning, and the flavor of these origami roots soaked in vitality water has become a lot stronger, but the astringency in the taste has decreased a lot, and it is definitely better than ordinary origami roots!

The old woman smiled and said, "Okay, if it's really delicious, I'll buy it next time." ”

said so, but she didn't think that the little girl's ear roots could be so delicious.

However, the prices of vegetables in each stall are about the same, where to buy or not? This little girl is so interesting, her vegetables are picked very cleanly, there is not a single yellow leaf, old leaf stalk, and the mud is also washed clean, which is comfortable to look at. If she has the food she wants to buy, why not take care of her business?

The old woman carried the vegetables and left, Lin Fang looked at Xiao Qinghe with a surprised face, and said to Lin Jing: "Lin Jing, when did your lotus flower become so eloquent?" ”

Lin Jing was also confused: "I don't know either......"

Xiao Qinghe said seriously: "Mom, Aunt Fang, didn't I say it, I want to change, I can't be as timid as before!" ”

Lin Fang muttered, "This change is too big......"

Xiao Qinghe ignored her, after a long time, they would get used to it.

The sky gradually brightened, and there were more people rushing to the market, and it was very lively. There are also more people in the vegetable market, with Xiao Qinghe helping to greet people, and the vegetables on Lin Jing's small stall are selling quickly.

When Lin Fang saw it, she said sourly: "Lotus is so capable, I want to have a daughter." ”

"If you want to give birth, you can give birth."

"Family planning is so strict, do I dare to give birth? I don't want to hide in Tibet, if I get caught, I have to be forced to have a baby, I can't stand that crime. ”
