The ugly wife of peasant family

The market is very big. The two women are turning slowly. After they come back, it's a few quarters of an hour later.

There are more and more people in the market. There are more and more people watching fish in front of the bucket. But when they listen to the price, they shake their heads and go away.

Zhu and Lan'er are a little worried. Seeing Xia Xi coming back, they ask in a low voice, "sister-in-law, do you think our price will be lower?"

Looking at the people who came to see the fish, Xia Xi shook her head, "don't worry, wait."

People who come to the market to buy things at this time are not too rich. Of course, a hundred Wen fish can't afford it.

They were worried, but they didn't insist.

After a while, there were more and more people in the market, but none of the fish was sold.

Zhu and Lan'er cry harder.

A woman with a basket came over and stopped in front of the bucket. Looking at the fish in it, she asked, "how can I sell this fish?"

"One hundred Wen."

LAN Er answers eagerly.

When the woman looked at him, she had a smile on her lips and held out five fingers, "Fifty Wen, I want one."

The smile on LAN er's face just rose froze.

"Why, no?"

Asked the woman.

LAN Er stammered, "you, you give too little."

The woman was not annoyed, and her smile deepened. "Sister, to tell you the truth, you are a really good fish. You are not only lively, but also big. A hundred Wen is not expensive. But you see, at this time, it's neither new year's day nor festival's day. Who is willing to spend so much money to buy fish. That is to say, in our house, the master and his wife love to eat fish, so I moved my mind and bought one for them to taste. "

With that, Lan'er hesitated. She turned her eyes and said, "I know it's not easy for you to catch these fish in winter. Let's take it as if I'm kind to our master and wife. I'll buy two and give you 100 Wen."

"This..."

Lan'er looks at Xia Xi.

"Not for sale!"

Xia Xi only said lightly.

The smile on the corner of the woman's mouth disappeared, and her eyes began to look unhappy. "Are you..."

"I'm her sister-in-law. The fish was caught by our family at the risk of falling into the water. It's one hundred Wen a fish, and it's not enough to lose a penny."

"Sister in law..."

Lan'er gently pulled off the corner of her dress. It's been more than an hour since morning. It's not easy for a woman to buy it. If she doesn't sell it, maybe the fish won't sell today.

Xia Xi instantly understood her meaning and said faintly, "if we can't sell it, we'll go home and eat it ourselves. It happens that the whole family will mend their body."

Finish saying, hang down eyelid, whole Qi Er's collar, "the child grows so big, also didn't eat fish several times."

"You..."

The woman's face is not pretty.

She's a cook in the mansion. She comes to buy such a big fish every day, not to mention 100 Wen. Even 200 Wen is not much. But she's greedy and wants to buy it for 50 Wen. When she goes back, she says that it costs 200 Wen. In this way, a fish can lose 150 Wen. Now Xia Xi refuses. She's very angry. She insists that it doesn't break out and says in a bad voice, "You're a woman who can't do business. There's no buy it now price. In this way, I'll give you another ten Wen for each fish."

"One hundred Wen, one less, no sale!"

Xia Xi said again, gently soft, voice is very firm.

"You..."

The woman's popularity turned red, and she wanted to turn around, but she was reluctant to give up 200 Wen. You know, it's not every day that she met such a good thing. In the past, every time she bought vegetables, she could only get 30 Wen or 50 Wen.

Bite teeth, impatient said, "well, well, each 80 Wen, to sell sell, do not sell, I left."

"Sister in law..."

Not only Lan'er, but also the pillar looked at her with a prayer in her eyes. One hundred and sixty Wen could last until the new year.

Xia Xi's lips moved. The woman thought she agreed. She was happy and said immediately, "give me the two biggest ones."

"Not for sale!"

The joy on the woman's face is still clear, and her mouth is half open. After hearing Xia Xi's words, she is stunned for a moment. Then she reacts. Her voice rises abruptly, and her face is unbelievable. "What do you say?"

"I, say, no, sell!"

Xia Xi said it clearly word by word.

The woman's face changed a few times, and her spittle flew out. "You inquire about how many things our family buys every day in the market. You've never met one like you. I buy your fish to praise you. Don't be ignorant of it."

Lan'er is afraid of pulling Xia Xi's sleeve again, "sister-in-law, otherwise, let's sell it to her."

There are plenty of fish in the river. Maybe they will come every day in the future. It's good to have a repeat customer.

Xia Xi stooped, casually caught a fish in his hand, holding it for everyone to see, "I have three or four Jin of fish, with the current market, each Jin sold 30 Wen, which also needs more than 100 Wen, we sell 100 Wen, this does not want more."

The crowd nodded. It's winter now. There is no fresh fish. Let alone 30 Wen per kilo, even 50 Wen is not expensive.

The woman didn't expect that Xia Xi would do this. Her face turned into a pigliver color. She didn't say anything. She snorted and turned away.

The onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see and left one after another.

Pillar and Lan'er sigh.

"Don't worry, it will sell."

Xia Xi comforts them.

Qi'er held her hand tightly, and her face was dignified.

After a few quarters of an hour, there were more and more people in the market, but no one came to buy fish.

Pillar and LAN Er two people anxious of don't work hard of shout, voice all some hoarse.

A group of people came over from the market shouting. When they saw them, the people who set up the stall changed their faces. Some people reached into their arms, took out the copper plate, and got ready. When they came near, they gave it to them in a hurry.

The man in front of him swayed to the bucket, looked at the fish in it and said, "ten Wen."

People in the back reach out.

Pillar and orchid son a face muddle, "what ten Wen money?"

The man in front of him was impatient, "stall fee, hurry up!"

The voice of the pillar can't be any smaller. "We don't have it."

The man's eyes glared, and his voice raised a little, "what, you say it again!"

The pillar retreated a step, "we, our fish have not sold out, there is no money to pay the booth fee."

"What kind of stall do you have no money for?"

The man angrily kicked at the bucket.

There was a burst of exclamation.

A white hand came over and quickly lifted the bucket to one side before the person's foot touched it.

Man a Leng, toward Xia Xi see past, see clearly is a woman, eyes slightly narrow, Xia Xi has bent down, quickly grabbed a fish, handed to him, "big brother, this fish sent you."
