And the sun was rising, and the number of women carrying baskets of groceries increased.

Someone finally stopped in front of Lu Yangge and their four sisters and brothers, and a lady holding her little granddaughter asked, "How do you sell this dumpling leaf?" ”

Before Lu Yangge could speak, Lu Xiaoli preemptively said: "Two handfuls for one penny, auntie, you want a few." ”

This is a price that has been negotiated early, and she has sold fish with her father, and she is not stage frightened.

"So expensive?"

The lady who spoke was disgusted, but the person squatted down and looked at the reed leaves in the basket: "This thing, there are so many in the field, and it is a lot to pick casually, and you still sell it so expensive, cheaper." ”

Hearing the eldest lady say that it was expensive, Lu Xiaoli immediately deflated.

She wanted to say that if two handfuls of one penny are not enough, it is not impossible to pay three handfuls of one penny.

These two baskets of reed leaves, even if they are sold for ten cents, she will not feel a loss.

Glancing at Lu Yangge, Lu Xiaoli still swallowed the words that came to his mouth. The third sister promised the fourth child that they would listen to her when they arrived at the market.

"It's not expensive."

Lu Yangge warmly received the first guest who came to the door: "Auntie, you see, this dumpling leaf was picked by the four of us sisters and brothers who rowed to the river beach in the morning, and the river beach is not close to here." We all picked the large leaves that were not broken, and the washing was also clean. Auntie, you just need to wash it with water when you take it home, and you can cook it. It's easy and worry-free, around here, there are not so big and good dumpling leaves. ”

Reed leaves are also called zongzi leaves by the locals, reed leaves are used to wrap zongzi in Huaishui, ditches and rivers are common, like them are big and good but have to go to the river beach of Hongze Lake to have, there is no way to pick without boats.

Two baskets of dumpling leaves, Lu Xiaoqing and Lu Xiaoli washed and washed, picked and picked. It's really big and clean, and it's hard to see even a broken one.

As Lu Yangge spoke, he took off the garland on his head, tidied it up slightly, and put it on the head of the little girl led by the eldest mother, the little girl stared at their garland and couldn't take her eyes off, and now Lu Yangge wore a garland on her head, and immediately raised her hand to touch it.

The pink little face is full of surprises.

The eldest mother hurriedly reminded her granddaughter: "Qiaoqiao, thank you brother." ”

"Thank you, brother." The little girl thanked Lu Yangge softly, and touched the garland on her head uncontrollably.

Lu Xiaoyu felt that he had found a fellow Daoist, and immediately leaned over: "Looks good, right?" This is made up by my eldest brother, he is skillful, right? ”

The two little girls got together to see whose garland was better, and cooed and cooed.

The eldest lady glanced at the garland on the little granddaughter's head, and turned over the dumpling leaves in the basket, she really couldn't find fault, and opened her mouth a little reluctantly: "Four handfuls for one penny, I'll buy two pennies." ”

The little daughter-in-law is happy to enter the door, she just added a grandson to her family in the spring, and this Dragon Boat Festival has to go to give gifts to her in-laws, as well as the daughter-in-law's maiden family......

Lu Xiaoli was about to cry out with joy, but when he thought of Lu Yangge's advice, he could only endure and didn't dare to make a sound.

She didn't expect that someone really wanted this dumpling leaf, four handfuls for a penny, and it was a big deal that she would go to the river beach to pick it again, and she didn't want the capital.

There are so many on the river beach, as long as she works hard and runs a few more times with her eldest sister, they can earn a lot of copper money.

"Auntie. This price can't be sold, don't believe you to go around, a penny or two is not expensive, and you will earn a hard money. You see, our leaves are bigger than other people's, and there are more leaves, while other people's leaves are not as good as ours. ”

Lu Yangge had been in the town for a few days, and there was only one seller of reed leaves in the whole town.

The reed leaves of that family were messy, not washed or said, and there were many broken ones, and they were sold for a penny or two.

Her price was set after comparison.

When the eldest lady heard this, she straightened her waist: "Then I'll take a look." Sanya, return the garland to my brother. ”

As she spoke, the eldest lady raised her hand to take the wreath on her granddaughter's head. If you don't buy other people's things, you can't take advantage of them.

Sanya, who was still happy, was immediately dumbfounded, she raised her hand to protect the wreath on her head at a loss, and looked at her grandmother pitifully.

Lu Yangge hurriedly waved his hand: "Auntie, that's what I played with my sister, I don't need money." ”

Seeing that Lu Yangge really wanted to send it, the eldest lady didn't refuse again, smiled politely, and pulled her granddaughter away.

When the eldest lady really left, Lu Xiaoli sat on the ground, crying and mourning.

"Why don't you sell it, a penny is money."

A wreath was also pasted upside down.

Lu Yangge looked at the slowly rising sun and squinted slightly: "We said in the morning that we would listen to me." ”

Xu was not doing a good job in the first business, and then two or three more asked for the price, but no one bought.

Lu Xiaoli had already puffed out his mouth angrily, but Lu Yangge was still calm.

When the sun rose, and there were more and more people buying and selling vegetables in the market, Lu Yangge stood up, put his hands to his mouth and shouted.

"Don't miss it when you pass by, the big and clean dumpling leaves, two handfuls only cost a penny."

"Come and see, come and see, the big and clean zongzi leaves, eat the blessing and longevity and increase the fortune!"

The crisp voice, soft and glutinous as if singing, spread in this noisy market, so that everyone couldn't help but stop and look.

In the mess of stalls, three small heads wearing garlands stood out.

And the only boy who did not wear a garland was holding his horns, clasping his hands and shouting vigorously.

The swarthy little face can be seen to be a little clear.

Shopkeeper Li, who came to Fushun, watched the guy pick fish not far from them, straightened up when he heard the sound, and walked over happily.

"Boy, how can your dumpling leaves add blessings, longevity, and wealth?"

Lu Yanggeren was petty but did not fall, and looked up at the shopkeeper Li with a smile: "Because my zongzi leaves are good, clean and beautiful, eating them is naturally a blessing, longevity and fortune." ”

"Well, I love to hear that."

Shopkeeper Li pointed to the basket and didn't ask the price: "Twenty Wen, Shunzi, check out." ”

Shunzi, who had just paid for the fish, immediately ran over, took out the money bag from his waist bag, counted twenty yuan and handed it to Lu Yangge: "Forty handfuls, right, send them to Fushun." ”

Lu Yangge didn't know where Lai Fushun was, and before she could ask, Lu Xiaoli behind him had already bounced up from the ground, ripped off the wreath on his head and threw it into Lu Xiaoqing's arms: "I'll go, I'll go...... I know where. ”

Come to Fushun, that is the largest restaurant in Jiangba, although she has never been to eat, she and her father sold fish when they came to Fushun's backyard.

Rounding off, she is also a guest of Fushun.

"Okay, then the second sister will send it." Lu Yangge squatted down and began to pick.

Although each handful of reed leaves looked similar, she tried to pick out the ones that looked larger, thicker, and unbroken.

Shopkeeper Li squinted his small eyes and watched Lu Yangge take out a bamboo basket and count forty handfuls of picked reed leaves, and add four more handfuls of dumpling leaves into the basket.

"Everything goes well, and it is auspicious."

Lu Yangge said and handed the basket to the black and thin little girl beside him: "Second sister, give it." ”

Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but smile from the corner of his eyes, this kid was smarter than he thought.
