Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 300 Chapter 290 Nine: Selling Lotus Roots

Seeing the two of them sprinting like they stepped on a hot wheel, they disappeared.

There is a car blocking the road ahead, Song Qiu can't just chase after him too fast.

There are two gossipers on the left and right, how can she really go to trouble others?Block people's mouths?

But what makes her like the ones in the dark bar?
What kind of handsome and fair little man, who she often goes to?

Where did this nonsense come from, she hasn't heard the wind yet.

Judging from what the two of them meant, this matter should have come from the town?

Well, I will sell the lotus root later, so I will go to inquire about it.

Let's see who is full and spreads bad words about her.

The daylight in winter was late, and when we entered the town, it was still foggy.

The mule cart rushed all the way to the market, and parked in a special place. Song Qiu went to pay the money to get the wooden sign, and found a good place. Du Chuanfu carried the lotus root to the stall.

Back and forth, it took more than a quarter of an hour to get busy.

At this moment, it was getting brighter again, and people in thick clothes poured into the market one after another with baskets on their shoulders and baskets on their backs.

Soon, the market will be filled with excitement.

The cries of the vendors are one after another, which can be heard endlessly. In the early morning of winter, it is really a unique scenery.

Very interesting.

The last time Song Qiu was in this market as a peddler was a few months ago. In the blink of an eye, from summer to winter, an autumn passed by in a hurry, and his current mood was quite different from that time.

But this doesn't prevent Song Qiu from yelling after a short pause, "Lotus root for sale! Fresh lotus root! Crispy powder, stewed or stir-fried, it's guaranteed to be delicious and sweet! Don't be silly! Wen, don’t need five Wen and six Wen, only three Wen per catty! Don’t miss it when you pass by! Come and buy quickly!”

Amidst all the simple yells such as "Sell vegetables, my own side dishes!" "Bamboo baskets!" "Sell brooms!" The ingenious yelling, and the voice was still a clear and clear young female voice, immediately passed the ears of all the people rushing into the market.

Everyone followed the prestige at the same time, and then saw a young, gentle and pretty girl.

The girl was wearing a blue padded jacket, a brown cotton skirt, and a simple double ring bun. She was standing behind piles of lotus roots, her almond eyes were shining, and she was yelling loudly at passers-by.

The long string of words was exported in one go, without any knots.

Anyway, I have to buy vegetables, and the lotus root looks really fresh, and it has been washed clean without any mud.

Immediately, someone went to the stall.

"Little girl, these lotus roots cost three Wen a catty? No less? The one in front sells them for five Wen and a catty, which is cheaper than yours!" a woman said kindly.

"Auntie, look at the lotus roots in my house. The roots are fat and big. They are freshly dug, washed clean, and there is no excess mud. They are dug from our own lotus pond. They are absolutely delicious. They cost three cents a catty. It's not expensive, isn't it the same price in previous years!" Song Qiu responded with a smile.

The woman listened and saw that the roots of the lotus root were indeed pleasing, but the five cents and three catties in front were not very fresh, so she hesitated to buy it.

Immediately said: "I plan to buy two stewed lotus root, which one is the powder? I don't know, you weigh two catties of lotus root for me, don't fool me, last time I bought the lotus root, I said it was powder Yes, it turned out that it was not powdery at all.”

"Auntie wants to buy lotus root? It's easy to say. Here, I'll cut one and show you, so you'll know."

As Song Qiu said, he took out a fat lotus root and a slender lotus root, cut them open with a knife, and pointed the cuts to the woman, "here, the lotus root with seven holes It’s powdered lotus root, and the one with nine holes is crispy lotus root, so when my aunt buys lotus root, look for this one, it’s definitely a good one.”

The people around the stall saw that the lotus root is crispy and there is such a particularity, they all found it interesting and remembered it when they were busy.

The woman also smiled, "Okay, I believe you, then you weigh two catties for me, I'll go back and try it today, if it's powder, I'll come to you to buy it tomorrow!"

Du Chuanfu quickly picked up the lotus root and weighed it. It was a little more than two catties, and Song Qiu didn't say much, just six cents.

Everyone saw that she was so easy-going in doing business, and she was not stingy and stingy. They also saw that the lotus root was fine, and they were going to buy vegetables, so they all expressed their desire to buy it.

This one should be powdery, and that one should be crispy.

All of a sudden, Song Qiu's stall became busy.

After being busy for a while, someone squeezed his head in from behind, and when he saw Song Qiu, his eyes lit up, "I heard that there is a little girl selling lotus roots here, and her yelling is different from other places. Look at this person Surrounded by it, I guessed it was you, Miss Song!"

Song Qiu raised his eyes and smiled, "It's Steward Fan, long time no see, you look more refreshed!"

"People are happy when they have a happy event! Thanks to Miss Song!" Fan Jin waved his hands and smiled. His words are true, and now his son is working as a small shopkeeper in a shop outside. Of course, he is even more embarrassing in the mansion. , It's all because I met Miss Song.

"Miss Song is selling lotus roots?" Fan Jin was surprised. In today's life, Miss Song still needs to set up a stall to sell things by herself, but he didn't ask too much, but said: "It's just right, I I also want to buy some lotus roots, Miss Song's lotus roots look good, give me fifty catties."

Several masters in the mansion love to drink lotus root soup, and when he buys it in winter, he always buys lotus root.

Song Qiu asked Du Chuanfu to weigh fifty catties for him, and brought him a basket of oranges for him to help bring back and give them to the two elders of the Fan family.

Fan Jin accepted it with a smile, and paid the money again, and asked the boy who followed him to send the things back first, and then went on to buy elsewhere.

Because Song Qiu's stall has never been broken down before, people buy things, so they can buy a lot of things, so Song Qiu's lotus root is the fastest seller, and even a lot of oranges are sold along the way.

Song Qiu saw that there were not many things left, so he stopped yelling and asked Du Chuanfu to guard the stall, and planned to go shopping by himself.

Walking forward, there are more than a dozen stalls lined up facing each other. There are three tofu sellers in total. In the whole town, only these three sellers sell tofu. They are here every day. Everyone who wants to sell tofu usually goes straight here. that is.

Song Qiutou came here to buy tofu twice before, and he knew for a long time that among the three, the tofu sold by this two old couples is the best. Their tofu making skills have also been passed down for generations. .

The other two are slightly worse.

At this moment, the old couple's tofu was almost sold out again, and there were still a lot left in the other two tofu stalls.

Song Qiu looked around secretly for a while, and saw that the tofu stand on the left was a middle-aged couple selling tofu, and the one on the right was a single woman selling tofu.

This woman's business is better than that of the middle-aged couple, at least there are still people buying tofu at the stall.

After thinking about it, she walked towards the stall of the middle-aged couple.

Seeing a visitor coming, the woman immediately greeted her with a smile, "Little girl, how about buying tofu? How much? My tofu is delicious!"
