The Path of the Peasant Girl

Chapter 37 037

The group soon came to Zuo's house.

Hu Gu first observed at Zuo's house, rest assured, when they built the house, they surrounded the entire yard with a wall, and nodded secretly inwardly.

Few people in the countryside build high walls when they build their houses, and they are built in such a high position. It can be seen that they are also very careful about safety.

It's just that the amount of work for him is a bit large, and there are traps dug in such a large area, and a deep ditch is required.

Hu Gu felt that the next construction period would be very long, digging traps and planting thorns, maybe about a month.

And one month, every day to the Zuojia, the villagers are going to gossip.

It's not good for him or the Wen family.

Zuo Shi had thought of this question for a long time, and said directly to Hu Gu: "From tomorrow onwards, my mother and I will go to the market to make food wheat, go out in the morning and come back in the evening, there will be my eldest sister at home, three My sister and fourth brother are at home. After Uncle Hu comes over, they will open the door for you. My grandfather Qu and brother Jingming also come over sometimes."

Hu Gu nodded, indicating that this is good.

That way, he doesn't have to worry about gossip. He hasn't married yet, and Mrs. Wen is a widow. Those long-tongued women in your village must be gossiping.

It's best to have a solution.

After Wen's return, he also brought some good news. The village chief said that there were sons in the village next door. They belonged to Hong's parents' brothers, and he would bring two of them to her in two days.

Zuo Jiang was very happy to hear it, and wished he could see those two puppies now.

Close the doors and windows and let the family rest early.

The next day Zuo Shi and Wen pushed a wheelbarrow to the town to go to the market.

They were riding in Chen Changsheng's ox cart. Because Zuo Shi and Wen's brought a lot of things, they all paid for one person's cart and rode the ox cart to the town.

On the first and seventh day of the new year, there will be a market in Hehua Town, and people from Shiliba Village will come to the town to bring eggs and special products from their homes in exchange for some necessities.

Hehua Town is a very flat place with a good geographical location. There are a lot of people and it is more convenient to do business.

Zuo Shi, who is familiar with the road, starts to set up a stall, put on the stove and pot, and starts to steam buns and fry dumplings.

But today, because Mrs Wen came with her, they added some tricks. They sold the dried sweet potatoes that had been sun-dried some time ago.

"Why do you sell sweet potatoes? Sweet and crispy dried sweet potatoes cost three cents a pound."

Dried sweet potatoes are cut into long strips, sun-dried red and yellow, looking plump and moist, chewy, sweet and full.

"Why are dried sweet potatoes so expensive? You can buy three catties of sweet potatoes for three cents. You can only buy one catty here. Isn't that making a fool of yourself?" Point to the dried sweet potato and ask.

Zuo Shi explained to her with a smile, his voice was soft and crisp: "Auntie, this dried sweet potato from my family needs to be dried in the sun, the weight will shrink, and it has to be cooked, so bring it here. This dried sweet potato is not only delicious, but also delicious. Put it, as long as you keep it after you buy it back, you can eat it for half a year, or do you want to try it for free to see if it tastes good? If it tastes good, you can buy it again, and I won’t say anything if it doesn’t taste good.”

The aunt was overjoyed by her aunt's name, and the folds on her smiling face came out. She was qualified to be Zuo Shi's grandmother at her age. Now that she is called so young, why is she not happy?

After getting the dried sweet potato, the aunt opened her mouth with a long mouth, and when she bit it, it was soft and sweet, not stubborn, very soft, and chewy, and it was really delicious.

Without saying a word, he said directly: "Give me a pound."

Her grandson loves snacks, and she will definitely like such delicious snacks.

"But do you want to try my dumplings? My dumplings are also delicious. You can try one of these small ones for free. If they don't taste good, they don't need money. The small dumplings cost one cent and the big ones are two cents each. ."

The aunt was moved by what she said, and after she developed a role, she decided to buy ten small dumplings to go back.

As there are more and more people, Zuo Shi's enthusiasm for selling will increase.

In fact, because she came to the town to sell things before, there are many repeat customers.

"Girl, here are two buns and ten small dumplings."

Wen quickly wrapped the package for the guest and handed it over.

After the guest took it over, he suddenly found dried sweet potatoes next to it, and after trying it, he also bought a pound.

This time, I made less dumplings, and they were sold out quickly, and the buns were gradually sold out.

And the large basket of dried sweet potatoes that they brought was sold out under the peddling and promotion of poetry, and the speed was very fast. After an hour, all their things were sold out.

"Give me three buns and ten big dumplings."

Zuo Shi said apologetically: "Guest officer, everything is sold out today. Why don't you come early?"

"Is there nothing left?" The guest's face darkened. "So soon, my son is still clamoring for dumplings. Do you want me to go back and make my own?"

In fact, Zuo Shi's dumplings are very good, the small ones are vegetarian dumplings, and the big ones are meat dumplings.

Not only does it taste fresh and tender, but it also has a fragrant and meaty taste.

It is a relatively cost-effective way to eat delicious food so that people who buy it will not feel that it is taken advantage of, and it is still a process that can be done.

"How about I sell the half catty of dried sweet potatoes I have left to you?"

Half a catty of dried sweet potatoes is not easy to sell. Originally, he wanted to eat it on the way back, but now he said he couldn't sell it.

The guest thought about it and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Zuo Shi directly handed him a piece and asked him to try it.

After the customer tried it, he was satisfied and spent a penny to buy half a catty of dried sweet potatoes.

After everything was in order, Zuo Shi was about to leave and buy some things with Wen's to go home.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they picked up something, they were surrounded by two gangsters.

"What are you doing? Put things down."

"Do you dare to set up a stall here if you don't understand the rules?"

"Let you put it down, do you hear? This place is under the control of our eighth master. If you know the appearance, you will pay the money. If you don't know the appearance, you will smash your stall."

The two vicious Wang Tanzi asked for money when they were born at the first stop.

Zuo Shi was a little stunned, but he didn't expect to be charged a protection fee this time.

Before, he was very irregular when he came to set up the stall, and the time for setting up was short, so he didn't meet these two people.

As soon as I finished selling things today, I was stared at.

Wen shi put on a smile at the two of them, and asked, "Two eldest brothers, the little woman had different rules when they first arrived, and the two eldest brothers included one."

"Stop talking nonsense, give me the money!" The two waved their hands impatiently, not following Wen's tricks.

"How much is a month?" Zuo Shi asked.

"Thirty texts."

Zuo Shi looked at the stall selling tofu next to him, and the middle-aged man selling tofu nodded at him.

Zuo Shi understood and did not overcharge her.

Wen took out thirty coins from his pocket, and took out a paper certificate from the hands of the two gangsters, with the fingerprints of the two people on it.
