The peasant girl who escaped the famine: pick up the leak and pick up a prince

Chapter 55
Nan Nan opened her eyes and got up from the kang: "Mother, I'm fine."

Seeing the eldest daughter-in-law got up, Yu Maimai opened the curtains, stretched and started a new day of life.

"Get ready, the herbal tea we brewed yesterday, when we arrive at the market today, you will be in charge of selling the herbal tea. A cup costs 2 cents. Let's check the market first. If it sells well, we will sell steamed buns and herbal tea in the future. "

Mrs. Zhang nodded, carrying a basket with some food and a bottle of water in it. Yu Maimai was very sad to see Mrs. Zhang like this.

"Are you going to the market or are you going to the market? We sell steamed buns and herbal tea. Are you afraid that you won't have anything to eat and you're thirsty and hungry?"

Mrs. Zhang smiled innocently, then put the contents of the basket on the table, and went out with an empty basket.

So the bamboo baskets have been prepared, and the hot buns are loaded, covered with a thin layer of cloth.

At the door, Uncle Liu was wearing a black gown, holding a cigarette pouch, sitting on the bullock cart, smoking.

Seeing Yu Maimai's family coming out, he smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn't go out today. I'm worried about waiting."

"I'm sorry, old man, it's more troublesome to take care of children."

Nan Nan and Tun Tun were also very polite. When they saw Uncle Liu, they also came forward to say hello politely: "Grandpa, hello!"

"Oh, good boy, be sensible, come up quickly, catch it, be careful of the car moving around, and fall off."

Yu Maimai's family got on the bullock cart and came to the town.

When we arrived in the town, the sky was not completely bright yet, but there were already people coming and going in the market, and there were all kinds of businesses.

Standing opposite the market, Mrs. Zhang pointed to an open space and said, "Mother, why don't we put the stall here, take a look, this place is closer to the market, and there are more people selling food here."

Yu Maimai didn't think so, she shook her head: "This is the entrance of the market, there is no mistake, there are more people, but these people are all vegetable growers, if you want their steamed stuffed buns and herbal tea, I am afraid that the consumption capacity has been limited their desires."

Mrs. Zhang's eyes widened in confusion. She didn't understand what her mother-in-law said in the last two sentences. She grabbed Ning and said, "Listen, what mother is saying now, why can't I understand? Listen! understand?"

Ning pouted and shook her head, expressing her confusion.

Yu Maimai chose a new place, which happened to be in the center of the town. There are many clothes sellers, gambling houses, brothels and so on. It can be seen that this kind of street market is equivalent to the financial center of a modern city. If If you set up a stall here, many people will come to buy it, and maybe you can sell it at a good price?
The two daughters-in-law didn't speak, so where did the mother-in-law say it was?

Ning found a piece of wood from nowhere, put it on the ground, took out a piece of clean cloth from the basket and spread it on, then took out some steamed buns and some herbal tea, and yelled: "It's hot just out of the cage. The steamed stuffed buns, and there is ice cold herbal tea today, pass by, don't miss it!"

It can be seen that Ning's eyes are sharper and she can see what to do, but Zhang's hands are clasped, not knowing what to do, seeing Ning's yelling, she pouted and complained: "Oh, Don't be ashamed, who doesn't know that we sell steamed stuffed buns here, if you insist on shouting, people who want to buy will come over, why do you need to shout?"

Yu Maimai doesn't blame Mrs. Zhang, because she has been taking care of the children at home, and she always takes Mrs. Ning with her when she goes out to do small business, and Mrs. Ning is naturally a little more elf than Mrs. Zhang.

"Old man, tell me, if you sell things, if you don't shout, people passing by will know what you are selling when they see your things. If it is a little further away, how many people will know what you are selling here? ?”

Mrs. Zhang lowered her head, feeling that what her mother-in-law said made sense, and nodded: "Mom, if this is the case, then I will try it, what if I call out all the people in the town with my voice?" ?”

"Wouldn't that be better?"

Ning yelled twice, and then picked up the conversation: "Mother, let my sister-in-law shout and shake the mountain with one voice, as long as you don't recruit the tiger from the mountain."

While talking, Mrs. Zhang yelled loudly: "Delicious buns! Delicious herbal tea, come and have a look, take a look, if you buy it, you won't be at a disadvantage, if you buy it, you won't be fooled!"

With a loud voice, everyone seemed to be looking this way, and Yu Maimai immediately gave Zhang a big thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Look, old man, it really is up It works, and it works a lot, keep going.”

Ning didn't stay idle either, and when she saw people passing by, she hurriedly came forward to say hello, and introduced steamed stuffed buns and herbal tea with a smile.

Yu Maimai nodded, and pulled the two grandsons over: "Look, isn't there a few carriages in front? You two went over to sell our herbal tea. It's not rare for Mr. Baozi, but on such a hot day, They will definitely drink herbal tea, no matter what method is used, just invite them to sell our herbal tea!"

Tuntun bargained with grandma, blinked and said: "Grandma, if you make money, buy us candied haws, okay?"

Yu Maimai waved his hand: "Of course, when grandma doesn't mean anything, and remember, you must pay attention to safety!"

Tun Tun was clever, pulled Nan Nan, and nodded towards Yu Maimai: "Grandma, wait and buy us candied haws."

The two little guys hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do, but they saw the two little beggars under the city wall, and turned their heads: "By the way, brother, let's get some mud and get the clothes and faces all over." dirty, and then cry poor like a little beggar, begging them to sell our herbal tea?"

But Nan Nan denied it immediately, and shook her head: "No, if people find out that we are lying, wouldn't it be? No, let's invite him to taste our herbal tea honestly. It's the right way!"

After the two discussed it, they went forward to kowtow to the man.

Tun Tun turned his eyes and saw a man in black satin coming out of the carriage, he stepped forward and said: "Master, you are so hot, look at the herbal tea seller in front, why don't you try it, Is the herbal tea really delicious?"

Nan Nan's method was different. He stopped the people who came out of the carriage, and cried pitifully: "My lord, please take pity on me, and sell me a cup of herbal tea."

The methods of the two children are different, so Nan Nan is always rejected by customers, while Tun Tun can always invite customers from the carriage to sell herbal tea at the stall.
