Sky-high lotus seeds (5)
"What's wrong with it, I earn money from my own labor and support myself, and that's not right? You see, aren't there a lot of women selling their wares in those small stalls on the side? I didn't see anyone say anything, but I couldn't do it? No reason! If you don't open your mouth to sell, forget it, I won't force it. I didn't expect to talk about me now. Li Pian'er was right, and her words seemed to have a solid basis, and she used the women behind the street stalls as shields.
The fine hairpin rolled her eyes helplessly, can you compare the two? None of them are people of the same level. "Mrs. Li, you are different from him. Let's go down the street and find an empty stall, but those stalls are chargeable, and the cost is not expensive. Let's go, it's not too early, and we'll have to get back before dark. "Xi Hai decided to pay out of his own pocket to rent a stall for Li Pian'er, anyway, it is only a matter of a few pennies an hour, and it is worth it to be able to persuade Li Pian'er, and it will be dark in two more hours.
Li Pian'er glanced at the westward slanting Sun, thought about it, and felt that what the fine hairpin said was also reasonable, and she still had to find a stall so that it could sell quickly. She nodded to the hairpin and asked, "Just listen to you." Let me ask you, is the lotus pod I sell really expensive? I don't think it's much. ”
"Jiuwen money can buy a bowl of chaos, which is not much?" The fine hairpin directly felt a headache for Li Pian'er, a person who has no concept of prices. If she knew that Li Pian'er not only had no fixed price in ancient times, but also the same for the modern times where she had lived for many years, then she would definitely faint. Li Pian'er is a typical person who only spends money, but has little concept of the price of ordinary goods.
Li Pian'er and the eight or nine people formed a circle of people scattered, led by Li Pian'er to form a small team, and walked forward mightily. From a distance, it looks like a street fighter leading his younger brother to collect protection money from street vendors. The onlookers on the outer floor were nothing to look at, and eventually they dispersed, leaving only the gradually increasing number of pedestrians coming and going, just like on weekdays.
The golden sunlight gradually lengthened the shadows of the pedestrians, and the warm wind swept through the air, blowing the hair of the maids behind the stalls. They finally walked through another street and rented two inconspicuous stalls, a few maids stood behind the stalls, and Li Pian'er ended up relaxed, and had to go to that station with both hands, enjoying the shopkeeper treatment comfortably and chicly.
"This one is selling too slowly, you sell it first, I'll look elsewhere." Li Pian'er didn't have that kind of patience, and it didn't take long for her to feel bored, and she hadn't sold a few lotus pods, but she, the shopkeeper, was about to slip away.
As the sun sank halfway into the top of the mountain, the streets were already full of pedestrians, and the noise grew louder. Although Li Pian'er's words were mixed in the noise, the fine hairpin, who was not far from her, still heard it clearly.
Xi Hai handed over the two copper plates he had just received in his hand to the person beside him, hurriedly followed Li Pian'er, and asked behind his back, "Mrs. Li, where are you going?" The hour is getting late. ”
"Go around, it's too boring to stay there, just sell lotus pods with you." Li Pian'er turned around and raised her eyebrows.
Hearing this, Xi Hai took two steps faster, and followed Li Pian'er: "Mrs. Li, I'll go with you." "It's getting late, let Li Pian'er go out alone, she can't rest assured.
