Chapter 45 What My Wife Said

Xiao Er has met many people. Miss Jiang is a strong man, majestic and majestic. He looks like a hunter, and he is also a good hunter.

Jiang Miao's eyes lit up, "The price of the pheasant is not forty or fifty yuan a catty?"

Xiaoer nodded, "We generally accept 43 documents."

Jiang Miao was speechless. The price was even more expensive than wild rabbits. Did she lower the price last time she sold rabbits?

He asked some more scattered questions, and Xiaoer answered them patiently. Jiang Miao gratefully stuffed him with a handful of dates before leaving with Cheng Huai.

The buns and vegetables were all sold out, and Cheng Huai took Jiang Miao to the pharmacy for the remaining dried red dates.

When entering the pharmacy, there was a strong herbal smell. Jiang Miao didn't bring the dates in directly, but asked Cheng Huai to wait at the door, and went first to find the pharmacy shopkeeper who was in charge of the shop.

Seeing someone coming to grab the medicine, the other party put down the work in his hand, "What kind of medicine is the girl going to grab?"

"Shopkeeper, do you sell dried dates here?" Jiang Miao asked slowly.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy nodded, "It's for sale, two pennies and one tael, how much does the girl want?"

That's twenty cents a catty, and Jiang Miao immediately asked, "Does the pharmacy accept dried dates? I picked some here and dried them."

Only then did the shopkeeper realize that the girl was not here to fetch medicine, but to do business.

If I had known earlier, the price would have been lowered.

His expression immediately became serious, "If you accept it, it depends on its quality, and it is usually collected by one penny or one tael."

This is to cut the price in half directly, but you can get it if you can.

Jiang Miao nodded: "The shopkeeper waits for me."

She went out to call Cheng Huai, and soon entered the pharmacy together with Cheng Huai.

Suddenly seeing such a tall man walk in, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy almost thought that the other party was here to find fault, but fortunately, there was a petite Jiang Miao beside him.

He came out of the medicine cabinet and bent down to look at the basket Cheng Huai was carrying.

Jiang Miao walked over and took out the cloth bag containing dried red dates, "Look at the shopkeeper, how does this look?"

"Well, the color is good." The shopkeeper grabbed a handful and looked at it.

Jiang Miao took the cloth bag back, "Then can the price be higher? We specially dried the dates at home before coming here."

The shopkeeper shook his head: "One penny and one tael are not too low. We don't have any shortage of dried dates in our pharmacy. It's just that the girl is kind, so it's okay to take it."

Jiang Miao looked up at Cheng Huai, and seeing him nodding, he knew that the price should not be a disadvantage, so he immediately handed over the dried dates, "Then shopkeeper, please weigh it."

The shopkeeper immediately went to the counter with the cloth bag, "Two catties and seven taels, I'll count as three catties for you."

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Jiang Miao thanked with a smile.

The shopkeeper gave the money, and said slowly: "Next time there are still some, you can send them over, this price will always be charged."

Jiang Miao nodded, seeing someone nearby grabbing the medicine, she didn't speak.

Stuffing thirty copper coins into his purse, he and Cheng Huai were about to go out. Seeing another person coming by, also selling medicine for money, Jiang Miao took another look.

Cheng Huai stacked the two baskets together and held Jiang Miao's hand with the other hand: "Let's go."

Jiang Miao looked away, glanced at his hands, then looked up at his calm expression, nodded: "Well, let's go buy pork first."

Going to the butcher who sold pork, Jiang Miao bought five catties of pork in one go, and asked for the big bones on the side, and gave them a total of [-] Wen.

I also asked about the flour used to make steamed buns. Flour is much more expensive than rice. Now the price of rice has risen from two to four, and the price of flour has risen directly from four to six.

If the drought continues like this, it is estimated that the price will increase in the future.

Once I bought fifty catties of flour, I spent three hundred Wen.

Jiang Miao paid the money, and seeing the man easily move the flour bag into the basket, he couldn't help but envy the man's strength.

"Cheng Huai, where is the place in town that sells chickens and ducks?"

Holding the basket, Cheng Huai looked down at her and said, "I'll take you there."

There is a fixed place for buying and selling chickens and ducks in the town. Because of the strong smell, they are not allowed to be placed in other places.

As soon as you enter, there are all kinds of creaking sounds, accompanied by bursts of poultry feces.

Jiang Miao took a sniff, and quickly covered her nose with her sleeve.

Seeing her discomfort, Cheng Huai led her outside, "I'll go buy it, you stay outside."

Seeing that he turned around and was about to go in, Jiang Miao quickly grabbed him, a little dumbfounded: "Cheng Huai, don't worry, I haven't paid you the money yet."

The man stopped in his footsteps, and a look of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

It was rare to see him with such a rich expression, Jiang Miao smiled and put the money bag into his hand, "Remember to bargain with that person to buy five hen chicks, three male ones, the female ones are usually four pennies, and the male ones are three pennies." .”

Yu Ying had told her before going out, and now she told Cheng Huai again, lest he be slaughtered.

"I see."

Probably a little embarrassed, Cheng Huai pursed his lips and took the money bag. Seeing that there were many women selling vegetables beside him, he felt relieved to buy chicken fry.

Although there were many people in the place where poultry was bought and sold, Cheng Huai was tall. Even if he went inside, Jiang Miao could spot him at a glance, so he was at ease.

After a long time, Cheng Huai came out with a cage of chicks, his cheeks flushed slightly, presumably he had just bargained with someone.

Thinking about that scene, Jiang Miao couldn't help laughing. She pursed her lips tightly and didn't laugh. She glanced at the chicks in the cage, and said earnestly, "These chicks are very good, Cheng Huai, you are amazing!"

Facing her clear and bright eyes, Cheng Huai immediately looked away.

Thinking of how hard he had just bargained with the chick seller and kept saying what my wife said, he couldn't control his heart, and he felt a rush of heat.

"Selling fish! Twelve cents a piece, big and small ones are twelve cents!"

Passing by the fish stall, Jiang Miao couldn't help but look twice at the loud yelling.

Cheng Huai stopped, walked over and picked out a fresh and relatively large fish, gave him Twelve Wen, and brought the fish over.

By the way, he stuffed the money bag into Jiang Miao's hand.

Jiang Miao took out the straw hat from the basket and gave it to the fish, and looked at the rough man in front of him with a smile, "Cheng Huai, do you like fish?"

The man's eyes flickered, he responded imperceptibly, and prepared to go back with a basket.

Jiang Miao hurriedly followed, and tiptoed to put a straw hat on his head, Cheng Huai had to stop, and bent down to let her put it on him.

He is not afraid of the sun, but Jiang Miao seems to be afraid of him getting it.

He carried things in both hands, and Jiang Miao followed along with the baskets in hand, saying as he walked, "If you like fish, I'll buy a piece of tofu tonight and make tofu stewed fish. It's very good." eat."

She smiled brightly, brightly and delicately, Cheng Huai's throat tightened when he saw her, and he let out a low "hmm".
