When Mu Chun saw all of this, the little girl's face was so white that it was enough to cover the entire family. Her entire face was pale, and her lips were extremely red. At first glance, she looked like a ghost. She hurriedly turned her head and did not want to say another word. Old Madam Zhang thought that Mu Chun was afraid of her and didn't bother with Mu Chun anymore. She turned her head and said to Mu Xue," Good daughter, how about I buy you a silk flower when I get to the town hall?" Zhou Yezi could not help but look angrily at the Mu Chun sitting next to him. The cheapest piece of silk cost five cents, and the best one cost fifteen cents, enough for the family to buy a catty of fat. This old lady Zhang would rather buy silk flowers for her daughter than Mu Chun's li for food. Mu Chun felt Zhou Yezi gaze turn to look at her." This silk flower is very expensive?" She didn' t know what the prices here were. "Enough for you to buy a catty of fat meat." As soon as Zhou Yezi finished speaking, Mu Chun glared at Old Lady Zhang. "So it's so precious?" Mu Chun cried out in alarm. Mu Xue couldn' t help but feel complacent when he heard this, and he raised his head even higher. "It's just that I wonder what it feels like to have a catty of fat on my head?" As soon as she finished speaking, everyone on the carriage burst into laughter. At first, this old lady Zhang's words had attracted the jealousy of countless women. After hearing Mu Chun's words, all of them felt that the silk flowers were nothing special. They felt much more comfortable in their hearts, and they started to speak for Mu Chun. "The makeup on this Mu Xue's face is pretty, just like the female ghost in that playbook." "I look like it too!" "You all don' t want to die, do you?" Old Madam Zhang jumped off the carriage and rushed to the front of the women, scaring them into panic. "If we don' t make it clear today, everyone will not go to town." A few of the women all regretted how quick they were. Today, they all wanted to go to town to sell something to supplement their family. If they couldn't go to town and return home, they would n' t be scolded by their mother-in-law. "Whether or not this ox cart can go to town is up to Uncle Li. On the other hand, it's milk. You and little aunt don' t want to go and stay at home, right?" Mu Chun said as if nothing had happened, as if everything had nothing to do with her." Otherwise, I' ll bring a few of my aunts to village head place to judge." As soon as the Mu Chun moved out of the village head, Old Madam Zhang didn't dare to say anything else about not letting the cart go to town. She spat at the women, her eyes fierce. "Besides, let's see that I won' t tear your mouths apart." Seeing this, they also endured it and did not say anything else. Only Old Lady Zhang was harsh and unreasonable in the village. If she really couldn't go to town, things would n' t be good. "Mother, they are just jealous of my beauty." Mu Xue didn' t mind. From the moment she was born, she thought that she was the most beautiful person in the village. No matter what other people said, she also thought that others were jealous of her. "I don' t want to waste my time shopping in town!" Seeing that her daughter wasn't angry, Old Lady Zhang did n' t bother about it anymore. She directly said to the Li Tu who was squatting on the ground and smoking," I've been waiting for so long. No one is coming again. Are you still not leaving?" "Wait a moment." It was only this train. If they didn' t catch it, they would have to wait until tomorrow, so Li Tu had to wait for an extra fifteen minutes each time. "If I don't leave again, my old wife will have to drive her own cattle. After waiting for so long, no one would come again!" Old Madam Zhang shouted angrily. It was time Xue'er get angry because of the delay in shopping. ###Chapter13 Li Tu stood up helplessly. He looked in the direction of the village for a few times and was afraid that it would delay the time for the villagers to rush to the market, so he directly got up in a carriage. The carriage was no slower than the carriage. After walking for about an hour, he finally arrived at the town. Li Tu tied up the cart, he squatted by the side and started smoking. When everyone returned in the afternoon, he would return together. Zhou Yezi and Mu Chun found a place to sell meat to sell their own things. Because they had to hand in four coins for a single location, they could get together and save two coins. "Ye, how often do you come to the market?" Mu Chun put down his basket and jar and sat on the ground. "Did you earn much?" Seeing the Zhou Yezi basket's appearance was also exquisite, it should be able to sell for a good price. "This matter depends on luck. If you take a Uncle Li cart, you'll get four cents each time. Plus, you' ll get four cents for the land rent. "If you sell all the things you bring, you' ll be able to earn a few tens of dollars. Sometimes, it's very strange that no one comes to the market to ask you how to bring them back. Even if you sell them cheaply, you won' t earn much money." Zhou Yezi said with a sigh, but if he didn' t try his luck, he wouldn' t even think about earning tens of dollars. Therefore, people in the village often used their handmade items to sell them to supplement their families. Mu Chun saw that there were more people in the market, he opened the lid of the jar and took out a fish. He shouted loudly," Look! Fresh, fat, live fish! It's cheap and delicious. The more you eat, the better your health!" "This little girl's mouth is quite sweet." A woman in a date red dress stood in front of her stall. "Is this really a living fish?" Living fish was rare. Most of the markets sold dead fish, so very few people bought them. Mu Chun hurriedly nodded," Aunt, look at this fish mouth. You' re still breathing!" She lifted the fish in her hand to let the woman see it clearly. "Buy some tofu and stew it in a pot of fish soup, but it's fresh." "But this fishy smell is a little heavy..." The woman frowned. In the past, she rarely bought fish, but it was not bad to let her brother and sister look fresh for two days. Mu Chun sighed with emotion. When she went up the mountain, she also dug up some ginger. She placed the fish in the jar and turned around to grab a small piece of ginger from the basket. "Aunt, when you are cooking fish, cut this thing into a few pieces and put it in. It will remove the fishy smell." "Really?" The woman stretched out her hand and placed the Jiang block under her nose. It felt indescribable. She still did not believe it. "Yes, you will find out when you go back." Mu Chun said sincerely," This fish is fresh. Aunt, look at all of them. They are extremely lively." The woman lowered her head and looked into the jar. She was a little tempted," How much money?" Mu Chun didn't know the price of the fish. The cheapest pork was 13 Wen and 1 Jin. It was worth selling this fish for 7 Wen and 1 Jin. "Seven cents, but if you' re the first guest, how about five cents?" The woman nodded her head and agreed. Normally, the price of a dead fish would be five cents." Then help me choose one!" Mu Chun looked at the most lively person in the jar and grabbed it, but the woman did not have a basket to hold. "Aunt, why don' t you buy another basket for my sister? This fish isn' t too easy to take." Zhou Yezi looked at her gratefully when he heard Mu Chun words. He hurriedly took out the largest basket from the ground. "I' ll help you pick the biggest item for a ten-dollar bill." The woman agreed happily, waiting for Mu Chun to call the fish from the meat seller. "This fish is a total of two kilograms and two taels. I' m on good terms with my aunt. I' ll give you these two taels. A total of ten cents is enough." Mu Chun put the fish in the basket, Zhou Yezi craftsmanship was also really good. The bottom of the basket was flat and flat, and the fish lay quietly. "Mu Chun thank you." Zhou Yezi put away the money and smiled at her. This was the fastest sale in history. "There's no need to be so polite." After Mu Chun said that, she shouted at the crowd. Not long after, the stall was surrounded. She naturally sold the fish for seven cents, and each of them gave a piece of wild ginger. "Big sister, this fish has to be cooked slowly. If you throw this slice into it, there will be no unpleasant smell. The rest is fresh." Not long after, all the fish she brought were sold out. Mu Chun counted a total of one hundred pieces, she hurriedly received the money bag and carefully stuffed it into the basket. "Mu Chun you sold out so quickly? "I still have seven or eight baskets. It's also because you sold a few of them for me. Otherwise, I wouldn' t have been able to sell a single one." As Zhou Yezi spoke in frustration, it was better than not selling a single one. Mu Chun didn' t leave directly." I' ll help you sell it. There's a need for you to shout for help." She stood up with a basket in her hand. "Uncle, aunt, uncle, aunt, big and exquisite basket. Look at this, it's just like that flat stage. No matter how big a child is, he wo n' t panic even if he sleeps! "I' ll regret it if I miss it!" "Let me see!" After Mu Chun shouted for a short while, the basket quickly sold out. "Did Leaf see it clearly? "This will be the case in the future." Zhou Yezi held Mu Chun hand with tears in his eyes. "This is my first time selling the basket so quickly. Last time, I sold two." As soon as she finished speaking, her tears fell. "This time, I have to buy some meat to replenish my body." "I' ll send you a fish later." The original owner felt pity for Zhou Yezi, and his mother died in childbirth. A big man was afraid that his mother would not be good to Zhou Yezi, so he never married her. Mu Chun saw that there was a bun seller on the other side and pulled Zhou Yezi forward. "Su Baozi has one piece of money and meat Baozi has three pieces of money." "Two meat buns!" Mu Chun took out a money bag from the basket and handed it to her. The steamed buns wrapped in paper were also handed to her. "Hurry and eat." Mu Chun passed one of the Zhou Yezi by his side. He probably hadn' t had time to eat when he got up early in the morning.
