Chapter 6: Rush to the market
The next morning, Lin Yuer got up early, washed up, and waited to leave for the market.
"An Feng, you have to be careful with your sister, you have to be optimistic about your sister, and don't quarrel with others." Li Yunniang carefully admonished on the side.
"Mother, don't worry, Yu'er is no longer a child." Keep nagging, and I don't know when I'll be able to go.
"Let's go to the village and wait for Grandpa Zhang's ox cart." Li Yunniang handed Lin Anfeng four copper plates and asked the two to go to the village to wait for the ox cart.
This old man's cattle farmer can rent it to others to plough when he is busy, and usually pick up and drop off these people who are rushing to the market, and each person receives a copper plate.
"Mother, why can my sister go, but I can't go." Lin Anyu pouted.
"I'll let you go next time." Li Yunniang looked at the child's appearance and sighed deeply, blaming her for being useless.
Even the money for the children to go to the market has to be saved.
"Grandpa Zhang, you've been waiting for a long time!" The two rushed to the entrance of the village, and there were already five people sitting on the ox cart.
"Yo, the dolls of the Tiezhu family are also going to the market." Old man Zhang smiled and carried the two into the carriage.
"Hey, yes, I didn't see that Yun Niang could also fish." Several people looked into the bucket brought by the two of them.
"This is my brother's catch." Lin Yuer deliberately said that the fish was caught by Lin Anfeng.
Lin Anfeng is already thirteen years old, and doing these things will not make people suspicious.
"An Feng is almost fifteen years old, no wonder he can go down to the river to catch fish." Aunt Zhang looked at his appearance and said with a smile.
"Auntie, I'm only thirteen this year." Lin Anfeng said with some embarrassment.
"Haha, it's not small, it's time to talk about daughter-in-law in two years."
Hearing Aunt Zhang's words, Lin Anfeng's face instantly flushed.
The town is more than fifty kilometers away from the village, and even the ox cart ride takes more than an hour.
If she walks by herself, Lin Yuer estimates that it will take more than two hours, and the transportation in this era is too underdeveloped.
"You must come out before the sun sets, and I will wait for you here." Old man Zhang took the two copper plates and hugged the two of them.
Entering the town gate, Lin Anfeng handed over the other two copper plates given by Li Yunniang to the person who collected the town fee.
Lin Anfeng followed Li Yunniang to sell eggs here, and found a place to set up a stall with a familiar car, and put down the wooden barrel.
"Brother, I'll go over there and have a look!" Lin Yuer didn't want to stay here bored.
"Boss, how do you sell buns?" Lin Yu'er didn't eat in the morning, just so that she could go into the town to see if there was anything to eat.
"One penny." The boss glanced at what she was wearing and replied casually.
It's just a child from a poor family, how can he have money to eat steamed buns.
"Bring me two." Lin Yuer took out the two copper plates she treasured.
"Okay, you take it." Quickly wrapped two buns for her and handed them to her.
Smelling the buns that she hadn't eaten for a long time, Lin Yuer instantly felt that her tears were about to fall.
"Brother, eat steamed buns." Returning to the stall, he handed another bun to Lin Anfeng.
"Sister, where did you get the money to eat steamed buns?" Lin Anfeng frowned and looked at her suspiciously.
I'm afraid that she won't learn well at a young age, but her temperament has obviously changed in the past few days.
If she goes back to the past, then the mother should be sad again.
"Rest assured, the milk is for me, if you don't believe it, you can go back and ask your mother." Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Lin Yuer took a bite of the bun and explained.
Isn't it just eating a bun, as for looking at her with this look.
Although Lin Yuer is not a young lady from a rich and noble family in modern times, she has never lacked money to spend.
When to buy a bun, you have to be looked at with colored eyes for a long time.
took a bite of the bun hard, and the desire to become rich became a little stronger.
Hearing her assurance, Lin Anfeng took the bun and put it in his arms.
"Brother, why don't you eat."
"My brother is not hungry, my brother can eat this, and bring this back to my mother and brother to eat." He took a piece of chaff from his bosom and ate it.
Lin Yuer knew that watching him eat the chaff cake, she instantly felt that this bun was clogged, and she couldn't swallow it.
"Brother, you eat half of it." He took the bun out of the oiled paper bag, broke it in half, and handed it over.
"Eat it, if you don't eat this, I won't eat it either." Lin Yuer pretended to be angry and looked at him.
"Brother eat, sister is sensible." Lin Anfeng took the bun in Lin Yuer's hand and stuffed it into his mouth little by little.
After eating the buns, Lin Yuer looked bored at the fish that no one cared about, and like this, there was no way to sell the fish even if it was dark.
Lin Yu'er stood up from the ground, pulled Lin Anfeng out, and stepped forward by herself.
"Come and see, fresh river fish, sold cheaply, sold cheaply!" I shouted loudly, as an adult shouted.
Passers-by looked at a little girl full of aura shouting, and instantly surrounded her.
"Little girl, are you alone?" The people in the crowd asked curiously.
"I'm here with my brother, big brother, do you want to buy fish?" Lin Yuer looked at the uncle who asked and said.
"Haha, I can't be your brother at my age, how much is this fish?" The uncle was overjoyed by Lin Yuer's call, squatted down and asked.
"The big one is thirty dollars, and the small one is twenty-five dollars." When I saw that there was a price, I was instantly happy.
Someone asks for a price, but it's a good sign.
"This fish is only sold for six cents a catty, and your big one is not four catties." The uncle grabbed a fish and turned it in his hand.
"This is a fresh river fish, it's not as good as those raised in the pond, if the big brother wants it, how about giving you this big twenty-five yuan?"
"You little girl is really a human spirit, okay, give me this big one."
Hearing that someone wanted to buy it, Lin Yuer took out two straws, kneaded them into one with her hands, passed them through the fish's lower lip, and lifted them up for him.
"This is twenty-five texts, you take it."
took the money, and Lin Yuer counted them one by one seriously.
"Twenty-five dollars, uncle go slowly."
The uncle who had just stepped out, when he heard that she had just sold the fish to him, instantly became a name, staggered a step, and almost didn't turn the fish out of his hand.
Lin Anfeng was stunned and watched his sister sell the fish like this.
I didn't expect his sister to have such a good eloquence.
"Don't miss it when you pass by, the fresh river fish, the last one is sold cheaply!" Lin Yuer looked at the passers-by who came and went, and kept shouting.
"Little girl, how do you sell this fish?" A middle-aged woman with a slightly fat figure walked over and asked.
"Big sister, this fish sells for twenty-five yuan, this is a river fish." In order to prove its freshness, Lin Yuer deliberately stirred it in the bucket with her small hands.
The fish in the bucket swam in fright.
"Twenty Wen, how about I take this one?" Seeing that the fish was indeed fresh meat, the woman also felt good.
