Chapter 27 Luxury

The aunt bought two pounds, and an aunt who had a pregnant wife at home also said, "Buy two pounds for me, it tastes good, but I can't eat this old teeth, so I can eat it for my pregnant wife..."

"I will also buy a pound of fresh for my greedy grandson. Who can buy it with me? It can get half a pound per person..."

There are one and two, one after another, and business comes.

As long as new passers-by come, Xu Jiaojiao will give you free fruits when she sees them.

Taste first and then buy it. If you think the taste is not right, you will leave directly without stopping it. If the taste is not right, buy one or two pounds.

In this way, a large basket of wild loquats, dozens of kilograms, sold half and half, and sold out quickly.

Some people also tasted loquats and wanted to buy them, but they were gone.

Xu Jiaojiao asked them to come back tomorrow morning, but they were still in the old position and saw each other until they were together.

Then, Xu Jiaojiao took the empty basket and left the morning meal with Erya and Erlang who were still in a daze.

After counting, he sold a total of twenty or thirty kilograms, which cost nearly one hundred cents. Small copper plates were piled at the bottom of the basket, and Xu Jiaojiao still felt quite accomplished.

This is the first pot of gold she has earned here, although not much, at least it is a good sign.

"Grandma, can these wild fruits really be sold for money? Can they be sold for so much money?" Erya asked silly. She thought she was just to accompany her aunt to the town for fun and work as a coolie.

Is there anyone who wants such wild fruits? Is it worth five cents per pound?

All sold out?!

Seeing so much money, she pinched herself and it hurts!

It's not dreaming, it's true.

Erlang couldn't believe it either. My aunt was used to making a fuss at the Xu family. Today he came here just a coolie, helping to carry dozens of kilograms of fruit. If she couldn't sell it, she even told her not to throw away her milk.

Take it back to feed the chickens...

This is what you see...

He doesn't have to carry it back.

It seems too easy to make money like this. How many big meat buns can you buy? How many meals can you eat!

...

Xu Jiaojiao looked at the silly brother and sister and laughed, "Nonsense! Didn't you sell it? Well, it's okay after selling it for 95 cents. Let's go buy two kilograms of meat and go home to have a tooth-beating ceremony!"

Erya:...

Erlang:...

95 articles!!

Buy meat!!

Still two pounds!!!

When I came to the distinguished guests at home, I didn’t have such luxury!

This is directly following my aunt's pace of eating and drinking delicious food.

Erya and Erlang have no say. The money is earned by my aunt. Now my aunt is very generous. She is completely different from her former aunt. They just follow her aunt in a dizzy way and act as followers.

That's fine, my aunt won't treat them badly.

In the past, when I was with my aunt, I was worried, for fear that if I accidentally got angry, I would be punished by my aunt.

Now, my aunt is generous and kind, following her and eating meat.

I can't be happier.

The aunt and nephew went to the butcher shop, and Xu Jiaojiao bought a pound of pure lean meat and a pound of high-quality pork belly with her boss.

In this era, pure lean meat is much cheaper. Poor families like to eat big fat meat. The kind that gets oily when bitten into their mouths is particularly delicious. The key is that it can supplement the daily lack of oil and water.

Pure lean meat costs only 12 cents per pound, while those with large fatty meat cost 14 cents per pound. Pork belly is the most expensive, 16 cents per pound.

Xu Jiaojiao's aunt and nephew bought two pounds of meat and spent 28 cents.

Then, Xu Jiaojiao gave Erya and Erlang each to three cents of errands.

Erya and Erlang were beaten to death, "No, no... aunt, we don't want to run errands. We followed my aunt and ate meat buns. It was a huge enjoyment. We don't want my aunt's money."

Erlang also said, "No, my aunt, please keep it as your dowry in the future."

This is what Xu Zhang often says, he saves the dowry for Xu Jiaojiao, and he has to take any oil and water, and keeps it for Xu Jiaojiao to save the dowry.

After hearing this too much, the children at home naturally became aware of saving dowry for their aunt.

Seeing that they insisted, Xu Jiaojiao stopped forcing her.

She just thinks in her own way of thinking, believing that labor will be rewarded, otherwise who will work for you next time?

But the reality is that she was worried for nothing, and there were always people who worked for nothing.

In fact, they are satisfied by giving them a bite of delicious food.

Then, more than 60 yuan was left, and Xu Jiaojiao bought a few kilograms of refined flour. The old Xu family ate the steamed buns with mixed noodles, not refined flour made of wheat. It is better to use fine flour to make dumplings.

The refined flour costs a few cents per pound. I bought two or three pounds, but I didn’t spend much money.

Xu Jiaojiao used all the remaining dozens of cents to buy some groceries, mainly brown sugar.

Erya was puzzled, "Girl, why did you buy so much brown sugar for?"

It’s understandable to buy meat, who doesn’t want to eat meat?

But buying so much sugar is too luxurious. Eating meat can make you feel full and you can eat enough, while eating candy is just a snack.

Xu Jiaojiao smiled mysteriously, "It's useful, come on, you each eat one piece, sweet mouth..."

He threw a small piece into his mouth first.

Sweet, very sweet.

Erya tasted a small piece, but Erlang didn't want it. He was a boy and was not particularly interested in candy.

The two siblings felt distressed that Xu Jiaojiao made so much money and spent all of them all at once.

However, this is the money my aunt earns, and they can't take care of it.

I have already had the courage to ask questions. If I had a former aunt, I would have scolded you if I dared to ask more questions.

It's still early to finish the early market.

As soon as he left the grocery store, Erlang couldn't help but feel a little bit unable to hold back, "Grandma, the wild fruits are selling well today. We have to pick more today and we can sell more tomorrow morning. I won't go home at noon

After dinner, Erya and I went straight into the mountain to pick it. My aunt, can you go home for lunch alone?"

How anxious is this kid!

Xu Jiaojiao said, "No hurry, it's not too late to go after lunch. When I picked yesterday, some fruits were not yet ripe. It's better to wait for the sun to burn again. After lunch, bring a few

Small ones, go pick them together, there are many people and great power."

Erlang wanted to speak but stopped, "I'm afraid... someone will pick it now!"

When I was selling fruits in the town just now, several people from the same village and neighboring villages came to taste the fruits for free.

They all know where the wild loquat forest is.

Seeing that their aunts and nephews could sell wild fruits for money, people with such scheming had already gone back to get into the wild loquat forest to pick fruits.

Erya was also anxious when he heard Erlang say it, "My brother is right, my aunt, there are really several neighbors who have eaten the loquat fruit you sent for free. They all know where the wild loquat forest is.

Now we must have gone to pick the fruits. We can still take the lead now. They have picked all the good ones. What should we do? Although today's morning market has dispersed, they will definitely bring the market tomorrow morning.
