Wangfu small peasant girl

Chapter 271 Buying Potatoes

"Mom, then I'll go and ask. Be careful at home. We are a single family, and we don't have any neighbors. Listen to something."

Song Shi nodded, "Hey, I know, you can go."

Xu Ruyue muttered, "It's better to get a dog, so that when a stranger comes, there will be a movement, otherwise I will always feel uneasy."

It was not so peaceful at this time. There were thieves or bandits in the mountain village from time to time, and Yongning Village was at the foot of Wolong Mountain. Wolong Mountain was so big, who knew where some bad guys would come up, it was hard to tell.

Xu Ruyue went to Wang's house with a basket on her back, and it happened that Wang San was at home, so she called out with a smile, "Third Uncle, is Third Aunt at home?"

Wang San smiled and said, "Washing clothes by the Yantang, I've been there for a while, I guess it's time to come back, Ruyue, didn't you look at it when you came?"

Xu Ruyue smiled, "I saw someone was there, but I didn't pay attention."

"Come in, I'll call her." Wang San said.

Xu Ruyue was about to say no, but Third Aunt Wang came back, "Is Ruyue here?"

"Third Aunt, I was looking for you." Xu Ruyue stood in the yard and said, "I just wanted to ask if there are any potatoes at home. I want to buy some back."

Wang Sandao, "There are, but they are from last year, they are not fresh, and this year's ones will have to wait a while before we can receive them."

"It doesn't matter, last year's is fine too." Xu Ruyue smiled.

Third Aunt Wang smiled and put down her clothes, "Then we still have a lot, we haven't fed the pigs this year, so you can just carry them back if you want."

"That can't be done. I bought someone else's house for money, and I can't take advantage of it."

The couple smiled and said nothing, Wang San went to get two sacks of potatoes from the cellar, "Ruyue, I don't know what kind of business you do or what you want, anyway, you can just pick it yourself , pick up the good ones."

Xu Ruyue took a look, and found that the potatoes were quite fresh, they hadn't sprouted anything, and they were bigger than the ones at Aunt Haiying's house.

In such a town, they have to sell for two cents a catty, and they are all honest peasants, and Xu Ruyue doesn't want to deliberately lower their prices.

"Uncle, your potatoes are good. I took advantage of a penny. How about it? Two catties is three pennies. What do you think?"

The Wang family couple glanced at each other. They didn't expect Xu Ruyue to be so serious. In fact, people can't eat much of this stuff, and they keep it to feed pigs, so it's not worth much.

It doesn't make much difference to give one penny or two pennies, but she is so serious that they give her a high look. This child is caressing.

Third Aunt Wang said, "Ruyue, you really don't need to be so polite, this thing is only a penny or two in the town, and it's fresher than ours, you..."

"Third Aunt, I will naturally not let myself suffer, nor will I let you suffer. Let's talk about the price first. These selling for a penny are really cheap for me. It's hard to say if it lasts for a long time. It's better to follow the rules. .”

"Hey, it's up to you, you just pick and choose, and let your third uncle send it back to you later." Third Aunt Wang said with a smile, "You are really sincere."

Xu Ruyue put down the basket, picked out those neat ones that were easy to peel, and picked a basket full of them, which was enough for her to sell for more than half a month.

But these potatoes are really good, so she thought about buying more, picked out all the suitable ones, and there were not many left.
