Chapter 10 Floating Market!

Su Yunman rolled her eyes and said to Xu Xiumei, "Mom, you go with daddy, and leave these things to us sisters!"

Xu Xiumei hesitated for a moment.

Seeing this, Su Yunxue quickly patted her chest and promised, "Leave it to our sisters! Don't worry!"

Xu Xiumei thought that she didn't have any valuables on her boat, so she told them the price and what she wanted to exchange, then jumped on the sampan and followed Su Genliang away.

The sisters saw off their parents and looked at each other for a while.

Su Yunman looked around, and then greeted the uncles on the left and right.

"Xiao Man, what should we do?" Su Yunxue patted her chest loudly, but when it came time to sell things, she was at a loss.She also knew that it was best to yell, but she couldn't open her mouth.

Su Yunman took a straw hat from the cabin and put it on, and then shouted, "Sea duck eggs! Real sea duck eggs! Wild sea duck eggs from the mangroves... It's good for children to study, adults eat them to work quickly !"

Su Yunxue looked at her little sister in surprise, and found that her ears were red where she was not covered by the hat, and then she pursed her lips and smiled, and stood at the bow of the boat, actively selling to those passing ships, showing her family's thing.

The sun is getting higher and higher, and the traffic on Yancunji is also increasing.

The Su family's dried squid and seaweed were also bought one after another.Sea duck eggs are also sold out one after another.

But Su Yunman didn't ask for the shrimp paste that Su Yunman thought was delicious.

Su Yunxue, who had eaten other people's shrimp paste, explained to Su Yunman that it might be because her mother's shrimp paste recipe was different from here, and it was more suitable for the taste of grandma's house.

But Su Yunman disagreed, after all, her grandmother's house was in the next town.

"Little girl, how do you sell sea duck eggs?"

Su Yunman looked up and saw an aunt wearing a standard fisherman's hat looking at her with a smile.

"Ma'am, these are wild sea duck eggs. They are fresh. Two of them cost only a penny. They are healthy and delicious!" Su Yunman smiled and sold them while pushing the bamboo basket forward.

She and Su Yunxue wiped these sea duck eggs carefully with a cloth, removing the duck droppings and weeds on them, and they looked fresh and clean.

The aunt wearing a hat picked up two sea duck eggs and looked at them, "They are quite big!" She hesitated for a moment, touched the sea duck eggs, and said nothing.

"The sea duck eggs are very good, and it's a fire!" Su Yunman's eyes were sharp, and she saw a white jade pendant tied around the aunt's waist, and then praised her sea duck eggs, "Little grandson eats it, and it will become better and better." The smarter ones!"

The aunt glanced at Su Yunman in surprise, then stroked her braids, "What a smart girl," then turned to Su Yunxue who was waiting at the side, "Choose about forty for the aunt!"

"Okay! Xiao Man, go get the basket in the cabin!"

Su Yunman happily got into the cabin and brought out a small bamboo basket, and handed it to Su Yunxue.

Su Yunxue grabbed two straw mats and put them into the bamboo basket, counted the number one by one, and put sea duck eggs into the basket.

The aunt was not in a hurry, and said to Su Yunman with a smile on her face, "Xiao Man? Why did you come out? Grandma has a grandson at home?"

Su Yunman turned her head and explained, "The neighbor's grandma also bought this kind of jade when her grandson was born, I've seen it before!"

Fishermen have such a custom, which is called "Nongzhang Zhixi", and they want to buy a piece of jade for their grandson to wear.

Su Yunman did see Xiaoshitou's grandma when Xiaoshitou passed the full moon, but it was the original owner.

She now understands that the person in front of her bought sea duck eggs for the aunt wearing a bamboo hat, which may be to supplement nutrition for her confinement daughter-in-law and relieve internal heat.I just deliberately mentioned that the little grandson is smarter after eating, in order to make the aunt more determined to buy sea duck eggs.

"39, forty." Seeing that there were only three or four left, Su Yunxue put them into the bamboo basket together, and explained to the aunt, "Auntie, for these 43 sea duck eggs, we only count forty. Count it from our sister to my brother."

The aunt was even happier when she heard this.

The words and actions of the two sisters came into her eyes again, and the aunt laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
