Chapter Ninety-One: Selling Vegetables
Xia He wanted to sell the autumn vegetables he planted in the town, Liu Feng thought about it, and he couldn't eat all the vegetables at once, so he promised: "Okay, then you can take my car to the town tomorrow morning." ”
"I sent Xiaobao and Wan'er to Aunt Zhang's house, let Aunt Zhang help me watch it, and I will try to sell the vegetables and come back as soon as possible." Xia He said.
"Then send it to my house, let my mother watch it." Liu Feng said.
Xia He said: "Your mother is older than Aunt Zhang, I'm afraid that the old man's body can't stand it, so let's send it to Aunt Zhang's house." ”
Liu Feng thought for a while and said, "Okay, then do what you want." ”
Liu Feng said goodbye to Xia He and drove the carriage home.
Xia He and Liu Feng decided on tomorrow's affairs, and they were busy receiving a bunch of greens, and covered the greens with artemisia grass, so as to prevent the frost from freezing the greens they had worked so hard to grow at night.
After cleaning up, it was already dark, Xia He went back to the room, hugged Xiaobao and rested on the kang.
Seeing that her mother was working so hard, Wan'er plugged in the door, scooped half a basin of warm water in the pot, put it on the edge of the kang, and said to her mother: "Mother, you still burn your feet, so that it will be very comfortable to sleep after scalding your feet." ”
Xia He looked at her little Wan'er like this, hurriedly hugged Xiaobao and put her feet into the basin, and said to her daughter: "Daughter, you really moved my mother, you don't want to be like this in the future, my mother will not be able to stand it." ”
Wan'er smiled and said: "It's okay mother, Wan'er is willing to do this, seeing her mother work so hard, Wan'er is really sad, she can only help her mother like this." ”
Xia He listened to her daughter's warm words, and thought to herself: "My Xia He is really a good fortune, I was reborn in this era, and I have this identity, but all the people I have met are kind-hearted people, including this Xiao Wan'er who picked up on the road, they are all so good, that is, the Liu family is so ruthless and unrighteous to themselves." ”
Thinking of this, Xia He pulled Wan'er, kissed the little face and said, "Daughter, my mother will buy you paper and pen tomorrow, and come back to teach you how to read." ”
Wan'er promised: "Okay mother, I will study hard." ”
The next day, Liu Feng came to Xia He's side early, and Xia He had already gotten up early.
After eating, he wrapped Xiaobao, dressed Wan'er, and waited for Liu Feng to come to the house to load vegetables.
Seeing Liu Feng coming, Xia He hurriedly came out and loaded the green vegetables into the car with Liu Feng.
Then he returned to the room, picked up Xiaobao and followed Wan'er, got into Liu Feng's car, and went straight to Aunt Zhang's house.
came to take Aunt Zhang's house, Xia He hurriedly got out of the car, hugged Xiaobao and led Wan'er to the door of Aunt Zhang's house.
Aunt Zhang was sweeping the floor at the door, and when she saw Xia He coming in, she shouted happily: "Oh, I said Xia He, you are here, but Aunt Zhang thinks badly, come over and let me see Xiaobao." ”
Xia He said with a smile: "Auntie, Xia He misses you too, you seem to be a lot more energetic as a mother-in-law." Xia He looked at Aunt Zhang's red face and said.
Hearing Xia He say this, Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "Hey, isn't it all up to you and Liu Feng to help, didn't your brother Shi marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
Saying that, Aunt Zhang took the little treasure in Xia He's arms and said, "Look at this little treasure, it's really cute." Come and sit in the house, I just finished cleaning up, your brother Shi is not at home, I am alone, and I don't always feel very lonely, you came to accompany the aunt. ”
Seeing Aunt Zhang say this, Xia He looked at Liu Feng, embarrassed to say that he let Aunt Zhang look at Xiaobao.
Liu Feng looked at Xia He's eyes, knew what Xia He meant, and hurriedly said to Aunt Zhang: "Ah, Aunt Zhang, Xia He wants to put Xiaobao and Wan'er on your side, take my car to sell these autumn vegetables, and then come back immediately." ”
Xia He nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, Aunt Zhang, Xia He begs you to see Xiaobao, I will come back when I go, Xiaobao is very well-behaved, I can't cry." ”
Wan'er next to her also took her grandmother's hand and said, "Grandma, my brother is so well-behaved, he doesn't cry at all." ”
Seeing Wan'er say this, Aunt Zhang said with a smile: "Look at you, look at the child, don't explain like this, Aunt Zhang is still a little useful now, that is, I can show you the child, it's okay, you and Liu Feng go to the town, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Xiaobao, you don't have to rush back." ”
Xia He heard Aunt Zhang say this, and hurriedly said: "Okay, Aunt Zhang, let's leave now, Wan'er must listen to Grandma's words." ”
Wan'er agreed to enter the house.
Xia He got into Liu Feng's carriage and went to the town again.
Aunt Zhang watched the carriage leave, closed the door again, and carried Xiaobao back to the room.
Looking at this little cutie, Aunt Zhang wondered when her stone would be able to bring back such a big grandson for herself?
Liu Feng drove the carriage to the town quickly.
Xia He said: "Brother Liu Feng, let's find a proper place to unload this dish, and then I will sell it here, you go to the store to get busy." ”
Liu Feng agreed, and led the horse to the place where he bought vegetables in the street.
found an empty seat, the two of them unloaded the dishes, Liu Feng looked at Xia He and said, then I will accompany you to sell the vegetables and then go to the store, see that you are guarding these dishes alone, and people will come up after a while, I am afraid that you will not be busy.
Xia He thought for a while and said, "You better go to the store, I can be busy." ”
Seeing Xia He's insistence, Liu Feng led the horse away from Xia He and walked towards the steamed bun shop.
Xia He stood next to this pile of green vegetables, looked at these vegetables and thought to himself, "Can these vegetables be sold?" ”
Xia He looked left and right at the people selling vegetables next to him, and saw that the vegetables they sold were carefully selected, tied up with straw bundles one by one, and put them on the board, which was really clean.
Look at the pile of autumn vegetables that he unloaded, although they look fresher than those dishes, but they are very messy, Xia He thought again: although his own dishes are messy, they are very fresh, which is better than the dishes next to him.
So Xia He began to shout: "Take a look, take a look, see if this dish is an autumn vegetable that has just been pulled out of the ground, this autumn is just the time to store the green vegetables that have been in the winter, buy it and dry it at home as a dried vegetable, sprinkle it with salt and make it into a small pickle, or take it outside to freeze it, you can also eat it." ”
Listening to Xia He's shouting like this, a large number of people were recruited to buy vegetables, and people bought vegetables one after another.
In the end, there was a little left, and there were still people to buy it, Xia He thought that he hadn't given the eldest sister some yet, so he said: "I'm sorry, you're late, these are booked by someone, you can go to other stalls to buy them." ”
Seeing that Xia He was no longer selling, the vegetable buyer looked at the wilting vegetables on the board next to him, shook his head and left.
The vegetable vendors next to him all looked at Xia He angrily and whispered, "Where did this come from to sell vegetables?" Why are you so good at selling vegetables? Isn't this robbing us of our business? You know, people like that kind of food, let's get some of it. ”
Xia He listened to the discussion of these people, and said with a smile: "I grew it by my own family, and I came out to sell it if I couldn't eat it." ”
Xia He finished selling the vegetables and walked towards the eldest sister's store with a bundle of vegetables.
