Chapter 57: Brewing in the Waiting

Quietly leaving the county office, Xie Ling spent a few days doing nothing, and finally settled down in a grocery store after a few people's homes.

It's not like a big family, there are a lot of things to do, it's mostly tally, cleaning, and most of the things in and out of the goods are done by the boss.

This proprietress has a good mouth. When she was fine, she took a handful of melon seeds and sat on the small stool at the door one by one, and when she saw someone coming, she put the melon seeds on the stool and replaced them with a standard smile to welcome guests.

Xie Ling pursed her lips, she couldn't do such a thing.

It also takes talent to meet left and right.

In those days, there were more people coming and going in the city, and even more people were buying things. The proprietress couldn't keep herself busy, so she asked Xie Ling to sell the goods as well.

She has been sullen since she left the county office, and she has no smile at all in the face of these strangers.

The proprietress has said that she has said many times, even if her face is stiff in the face of the guests, she can't stop, and she will talk.

But every time, Xie Ling had an expression, but the proprietress saw that she was quite diligent in her work, so she just said it.

But as long as she has time, she doesn't need to sell goods. Xie Ling's days have passed lightly.

The day Xie Ling saw the woman, it was also a snowy day. The snow that day was very light, unlike the snow that had fallen like goose feathers the other day.

This snow, like a lover's tears, bit by bit, can make your heart can't let go.

The woman stood at the door for a long time before she walked in with her footsteps. Xie Ling saw that the proprietress was busy and walked forward, "What do you want to buy?" ”

It's still that plain look.

The woman was wearing a scarf, and there were small snowflakes on her hair, but her eyes were godless, and she didn't answer Xie Ling's words for a long time.

Xie Ling thought that he hadn't heard it, so he wanted to say it again, but the proprietress ended the transaction just now and walked over with a smile.

"Ouch, look at this girl who looks so handsome, but what do you want to buy? Buy it for your family? Or buy it for yourself? The proprietress said.

The woman, stunned, looked at a pair of fat cotton gloves on the container, and whispered, "Can you show me that?" ”

As soon as the woman's voice was heard, it was not from here, Xie Ling glanced at the proprietress with a heart, she glanced at Xie Ling, and then went to get gloves for the woman.

The winter in Yong'an City is a cold one, as the northernmost city of the Dajin Kingdom, there are very few winters here when there is no snow, even if it doesn't snow sometimes, but the weather is also cold, and it is not one or two people whose noses are frozen.

"The girl is from out of town, isn't she? We, ordinary people from other places, come here to buy this, and we can't stand the cold? The proprietress shivered a little, to prove the cold.

Seeing that the woman was holding the pair of cotton gloves with a thoughtful look, she took out the kind of gloves that a smaller, more delicate woman brings, "If the girl brings it herself, buy this, this is the most suitable for your temperament." ”

The woman shook her head, still holding the one just now and asked, "How much is this?" ”

The proprietress was embarrassed for a moment, then smiled and said, "Five taels of silver." ”

Xie Ling was surprised for a moment, and then asked, "What?" It costs five taels of silver. "She's been here for so long, she didn't know it was going to be so expensive.

The woman nodded, "I want it." ”

"Okay, I'll wrap it up for you, wait a minute." The corners of the proprietress are happy to be pulled behind her ears, and anyone will be happy to sell a pair of cotton gloves for five taels of silver.

Xie Ling said silently in his heart, eat people without spitting out bones.

After the woman left, Xie Ling looked at her graceful back, and suddenly faintly seemed to see a shadow. I don't know, she can't be sure, maybe it's dazzling.

The proprietress sat back on her stool, looked at Xie Ling and said, "Why, you don't want me to sell things like this?" ”

Xie Ling was still thinking about what the inexplicable shadow beside the woman was, and he didn't react for a while, "What did you say?" ”

The proprietress gave her a blank look again, "I know you must be thinking that I sold such a broken glove for five taels of silver, a pit man." But look at the girl, what she wears on her head, which is not a good thing, and the five taels of silver are nothing to her. ”

Xie Ling said dissatisfiedly, "That's not right, I remember that thing is only a few dozen yuan, five taels of silver, you really dare to ask for it." ”

The proprietress just smiled, and didn't care about Xie Ling's sarcasm in her heart, did she do business? Who doesn't want to earn more.

The money is in the hands of the rich, but the poor are going to starve to death.

"By the way, she doesn't sound like one of us, and these days, there are so many people coming and going, is there a big deal?" Xie Ling asked, sorting out his things.

The proprietress looked up and looked at her incredulously, "You don't even know such an important day?" ”

Xie Ling shook his head, his eyes full of innocence, "What do you know?" ”

"Don't you know about Duobaohui?"

"What is it? Temple fair? Xie Ling asked.

The proprietress stood up, stared at Xie Ling carefully, and then said slowly, "The Duobao Festival is an annual trade event, many countries will come, and all kinds of items are sold. When the time comes, there will be more people, and you won't be able to squeeze in. ”

"When did it start?"

"Every year it's the fifteenth, and this year it's said to be a few days earlier. About twelve or thirteen. The proprietress said.

"Is there going to be an official on the scene?"

The proprietress sat back in her chair and said, "Girl, I didn't say you. If you can have half of the flattering expression when you asked me this sentence just now, I won't worry that you can't sell me anything! ”

"Where, I've been in a bad mood lately. It's going to be changed later! ”

The proprietress is also a cheerful person, and she has a good impression of Xie Ling, so she simply waved her hand and said with a smile, "Most of the goods in and out of Yong'an City for more than half a year are made by relying on Duobaosheng talks. ”

Xie Ling thought about what the scene would be like if she and Gu Changqing met again. Will he hug himself excitedly, or pretend not to know himself angrily.

But as long as I thought that I could join in the fun and meet him by chance, the whole person's heart was full of joy!

As soon as I was happy, my two fingers couldn't help but twist into twists on my chest!

"Hey, what do you think? Someone is coming. The proprietress roared and pulled Xie Ling back in contemplation.

"Got it." turned around and gave me a look that was optimistic, and quickly changed to a standard smile and said, "Guest officer, come in and take a look, don't look at our small shop, the good things in it can dazzle you." From the treasures to the food and clothing, only what you haven't seen, there is nothing we don't have here, what's the matter, what do you want to do? I'll introduce you to it. ”

When Xie Ling said this, his mouth was so smiling that he could hang it in the sky, and the proprietress was even happier on the side, knowing that she had not seen the wrong person.

But in the next second, the guest looked at Xie Ling's tightly clutched sleeve and said, "I don't buy anything, I'm just passing by, you have to pull me in." Could it be that you sell something else too? ”

The boss got up and threw several melon seed skins at him, "What is it!" ”

Then, the two of them met and smiled.

Life is like this, you don't know when there will be disasters, and you don't know when you will encounter luck.
