Chapter 18

There are many children in Hongdou Alley, and Jiang Xinyi and Baiji laughed all the way without attracting attention. The small white-walled house at the end of the alley was unoccupied, and three mothers-in-law were sitting under the citron tree at the door, chatting with melon seeds.

Jiang Xinyi came forward to say hello, and Mrs. Qin, who was sitting in the middle, stood up.

This Mrs. Qin's family are all working in Dong's Mansion in the town. Dong's Mansion and Jin's Mansion are two wealthy households in Nanzhu Town. Dong's Mansion is low-key, while Jin's Mansion is extravagant.

Grandma Jiang used to travel all over Nanzhu Town to sell vegetables. The market in the town is not held every day, only two days a week. In order to sell more vegetables, Grandma Jiang even went to every restaurant and noodle stall. .

Although I didn't have the chance to get acquainted with the buyers of Dong's Mansion and Jin's Mansion, I met Mrs. Qin by chance, and I also sold vegetables to Dong's Mansion a few times with the help of Mrs. Qin.

Mrs. Qin used to be the person in front of Mrs. Dong, but now Mrs. Dong has become Mrs. Dong, and she is also old, so she will go home and not serve her.

"Well, the little granddaughter of the Jiang family's mother-in-law, right? What's her name?"

"My name is Jiang Xinyi, and grandma always calls me Fatty." Jiang Xinyi tried his best to put on the cutest and most harmless smile.

"You got a big name at a young age! It seems that your grandma loves you enough. Back then, your grandma sold vegetables for more than ten years, and you have known me for more than ten years!
Five years ago, she said she wouldn't sell it if she didn't sell it, and she didn't come to the town much, how is it now?Let you, a little girl, take over her mantle? "

"Grandma is not in good health, and no one can grow vegetables at home like Grandma, so Grandma rested. This time, the new tender vegetables grown at home are very refreshing. Grandma asked me to bring them to Grandma Qin. Woolen cloth!"

When Jiang Xinyi said this, the three old ladies all moved towards Baiji, and Baiji unhurriedly lifted the sackcloth covering the bamboo basket, revealing the delicate and tender chicken feathers underneath, which were as bright as emerald green feathers.

"Your grandma is not old! This dish looks delicious, does it have a name?"

"It's called Si Yucai, and it's extremely fresh and tender. It can be eaten with a little soup and simmers. It's refreshing and nourishes the stomach."

"The names of the dishes are also nice. This kid can talk, Ah Xiang! Didn't the fourth child say that the old lady has lost her appetite recently? Take these two baskets of vegetables to the small kitchen!"

Grandma Qin said to a short and fat woman in yellow clothes next to her.

"Okay! I've been eating that ginseng chicken soup for three days in a row, and the old lady refused to touch the spoon yesterday. This dish will definitely look good lying in the chicken soup." The woman in yellow responded very readily.

"How can the old lady eat so much? One basket is enough for me."

The gray-clothed woman next to her had a look of bitterness and hatred on her face, and her brows were tightly knit.

"It's not for you to eat, there are so many long-winded ones, take them quickly."

Grandma Qin took the two baskets from Baiji, weighed them, and handed them to the old lady in gray. Jiang Xinyi said:
"That old woman from Yu's family is used to putting on that face, don't be fooled by her, she just has a disgusting and kind face, okay,

I think these two baskets weigh less than four catties. How much do you plan to sell? "

Jiang Xinyi didn't know how much he would sell it for. Yesterday, Grandma gave orders, but she forgot after listening.

She smiled and replied:

"Grandma Qin, I haven't sold vegetables before! You are my first customer! Just give me some as you see, Grandma said, if I earn money, let me save it to buy candy!"

"For your sweet mouth, grandma, I can't let you suffer, just to let you know that the vegetable sellers outside look at the items, there are one penny per catty, and there are five pennies per catty,

You grow this vegetable well and it is the first time I have seen fresh food. I will give you eight cents a catty first, and I will keep the basket, and I will pay you five cents. We can discuss again. "

While talking, Grandma Qin took out a copper coin and handed it to Jiang Xinyi.

Jiang Xinyi thanked her, counted the copper coins carefully, picked up three copper coins and returned them to Grandma Qin:

"Grandma Qin, three Wen is too much."

"Silly boy, I'll buy you candy when we meet for the first time, go! Go home earlier, don't let your grandma worry."

Thanking Grandma Qin again, Jiang Xinyi carefully put all the copper coins into her purse and put them away before going out with Baiji.

Unexpectedly, when they reached the entrance of the alley, Baiji said to wait, and then ran back.

A bunch of children were running and jumping in the alley, blocking Jiang Xinyi's view, and she couldn't see where Bai Ji went.

"Xie Gao, you think he won't take the opportunity to run away? It's fine if he runs away, I'll be relieved."

"Master, you seem to have guessed wrong! He is back."

Gee.

Although it was a pity in my heart, there was still a smile on my face. Forget it, I guess the original plot is not so easy to turn.

And she managed to sell all the chicken feathers in one fell swoop. Jiang Xinyi was happy after all. She saw that Baiji was following her, so she couldn't help but walk forward, while turning her head to frighten with Baiji:

"Bletilla striata, look, look, I'm very strong! It's all sold out! There are still a lot of vegetables in the field, I want to sell them all one by one!
I think the next batch of dishes should be sold again in three to five days, right?At that time, we will come to the town to sell vegetables together! "

Jiang Xinyi was talking excitedly, and forgot to look at the road for a while, and was about to collide with a passerby, and was immediately grabbed by Baiji:
"Show me the way!"

He didn't bump into anyone but bumped into Baiji.

Jiang Xinyi only felt that he had bumped into a washboard!
She grabbed Baiji's arm and stood firm. Looking at the thin child in front of her, she sighed and took Baiji's hand back.

Baiji immediately wanted to get rid of it, but Jiang Xinyi held onto it tightly.

"No, you're so thin, if you bump into someone else, your waist will be broken, right? Hold on to me and be safe."

"Jiang Xinyi! Shut up!"

**
Li Changhu was still busy when the two walked to Baicao Hall, so they sat on the stone bench in front of Baicao Hall and waited for him.

Jiang Xinyi took out the three Wen coins that Grandma Qin had given her, took Bai Ji's hand and put it in Bai Ji's palm.

Baiji didn't speak, just looked up at her, he thought Jiang Xinyi was going to ask him to run errands to buy food.

"For you."

"I don't want it." Bai Ji stretched out his hand and handed the money back, he didn't want Jiang Xinyi's money, he was not short of money, Bai Gu gave him a lot.

Jiang Xinyi didn't know what Baiji was thinking, she just thought that Baiji didn't run away just because she had no money in her pocket.

After all, in the original book, the retainers of Baiji will not come until five years later, and Baiji has stayed in Jiang's house obediently and peacefully for five full years!

She plans to help Baiji save travel expenses in the future, and she has to pay it without pretending to know, so that Baiji can run away silently after saving enough money!

"You are my subordinate, I should give you a reward, don't be ignorant, accept it obediently, or I will beat you!"

Baiji snorted coldly, too lazy to talk to Jiang Xinyi, took the money, turned around to look at the tree and the sky but not at Jiang Xinyi.

Jiang Xinyi was satisfied, she thought in her heart:

Well, work hard to make money!So that grandma can eat well and wear well without worrying!Make the bletilla striata full, and leave as soon as possible!

Give yourself a thumbs up for this exquisite abacus!
 Ice Cream: Next time I change the owner's box of high-end chocolates, I can change the name!upvote for my wit

  Jiang Xinyi: Oh, then I will change to a big white rabbit next time!
