After seven o'clock is the peak time for adults to go out to buy groceries. Old men and women, one by one, walk towards the gate of the community with their shopping bags.
Aunt Sun and Aunt Yang go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables together every day. They don't buy much vegetables every day, and they eat them all on the same day just to be fresh. Anyway, they are old now and have nothing to do. They can still take advantage of it.
Take a walk outside while shopping for groceries.
Luo Zhengjiang watched the two old ladies, Aunt Sun and Aunt Yang, walking out of the community, and was embarrassed to say hello to them. This greeting clearly meant that someone else was going to take care of the business. Luo Zhengjiang really couldn't bear to look like this.
On the contrary, it was Aunt Sun herself who discovered that the entrance to Luo Zhengjiang's canteen seemed different from usual.
"Xiao Luo, are you going to sell vegetables from now on?" Aunt Sun said.
Luo Zhengjiang has opened a canteen at the entrance of this community for many days. Luo Zhengjiang can recognize anyone who often buys something from the canteen.
"Isn't it easy for everyone to go out and buy food? I want to provide you with an aspect. The food here is guaranteed to be one or two cents a pound cheaper than the food market." Luo Zhengjiang said.
"Hey, this dish looks so fresh. Xiao Luo, where did you buy it?" Aunt Yang walked to Luo Zhengjiang's vegetable stall and turned over the vegetables on the stall.
"Where else can we go? The fruit and vegetable wholesale market." Luo Zhengjiang said.
"No, where can the vegetables in the vegetable market be so fresh? Only vegetables sent by nearby vegetable farmers can be so fresh. Vegetables from other places will always lose some moisture when they arrive here after long-distance transportation, and they will be wilted than local vegetables.
"Look at this vegetable, it looks like it was just picked from the ground. Look at the pinch, there is still water seeping out. It's so fresh!" Aunt Yang has been a housewife for decades and goes to the vegetable market to buy vegetables every day.
I have developed a pair of piercing eyes.
"Oh, Sister Yang, you are looking very carefully. These vegetables are all the same, and they are all picked freshly. Xiao Luo, do you have no pesticides on these vegetables?" Aunt Sun asked.
"I didn't grow this vegetable. I can't vouch for whether it has been sprayed or not. But if I look at it, it probably hasn't been sprayed. You see, there are these little bugs on it. There are also some insect holes on the vegetable leaves. It should be.
It's not sprayed with pesticides. Where could there be bugs if sprayed with pesticides?" What Luo Zhengjiang said was truly honest.
"I don't know how to read food, but I know how to read people. Just for you two, I bought today's food from you." Aunt Yang said.
Aunt Yang and Aunt Sun happily bought a day's worth of vegetables at the vegetable stall in Luo Zhengjiang.
Luo Zhengjiang suddenly remembered that the vegetable stall was missing an important dish - meat. There was no meat to buy here. If you wanted to buy meat in the morning, you still had to go to the vegetable market. Luo Zhengjiang quickly wrote this down in his notebook.
At this time, young people living in this community also hurried out. Some took a look at Luo Zhengjiang's stall.
"Hey, there is a vegetable stall here. It would be better if there is a fruit stall, so you don't have to go to the supermarket to buy fruit." The person in question also lives in the same building as Luo Zhengjiang's house, her name is Shen Ying. She came here after graduating from university.
I worked part-time in Guangdong, in Taihe Town Industrial Park. I rented a house in Xiuyun Community with two other girls.
"Shen Ying, why don't we buy some food to put at home and cook our own meals when we come back. We eat in the factory cafeteria every day and I almost have acid reflux." said Liang Xiaojuan, who rented with Shen Ying. Liang Xiaojuan and Shen Ying
We were in a factory, and we were fellow villagers. At first, I lived with Shen Ying in the dormitory of the factory. The conditions in the factory were so bad that the three of them moved out together.
"If you want to do it, you can buy it. Nowadays, people are exhausted from working overtime. As soon as I come back and touch the pillow, I want to sleep." Shen Ying shook her head quickly.
"Chunling, how about we two get together?" Liang Xiaojuan had no choice but to turn her pleading eyes to another girl named Yang Chunling.
"Just spare me." Yang Chunling had been fooled by Liang Xiaojuan several times, but she still refused to listen to her deception.
"Okay, don't eat it when it's done." Liang Xiaojuan pouted and walked to the vegetable stall, "Boss, I have to go to work now. I weighed and paid for these vegetables and put them here. I will come to your place after work. Come and get it.”
"Okay, okay, it's okay if you don't pay the money first." Luo Zhengjiang said.
"Brother, if you sell fruits for breakfast here, it would be great. We can have breakfast as soon as we go out in the morning. We don't have to go far when we come back to buy fruits," Liang Xiaojuan said.
"We can't make breakfast, we don't have the skills. But I can go get some fruits and bring them back tomorrow," Luo Zhengjiang said.
"Also, we need to batch some meat to be sold here. You have all the vegetables here. You see, we all have a disheveled look on our faces. When we come back to make our own meals, we just want to have a meaty meal." Liang Xiaojuan is an out-and-out foodie. She just went to work. After a while, the bag was not very thick. In addition, if you eat it in a restaurant, hygiene is not guaranteed.
"Okay, I'll find a way to solve it tomorrow." Luo Zhengjiang nodded. It seemed that he had to go to the slaughterhouse to have a look.
Zeng Hongmei was very unhappy when she saw that a man was so confused by a little girl that he agreed to whatever others asked him to do. However, Zeng Hongmei still saved face for Luo Zhengjiang in front of others. When Liang Xiaojuan and others left, Zeng Hongmei Then the roar of the Hedong Lion began.
"Are those girls just now pretty?" Zeng Hongmei asked.
Luo Zhengjiang fell into the trap accidentally. He didn't think about it at all. He only wanted to do a good job in business. Little did he know that his mother-in-law had already upset a lot of old jealousy.
Luo Zhengjiang nodded without knowing why: "Well, it's okay."
"Well, Luo Zhengjiang, Luo Shimei! You can't take your eyes away when you see a beautiful girl. You do whatever they ask you to do. They ask you to divorce your mother-in-law, do you divorce your mother-in-law too?" Zeng Hongmei pinched her hard. The soft flesh around Luo Zhengjiang's waist was twisted hard.
"Ah!" Luo Zhengjiang screamed miserably, "What are you doing? Where can I find it? I am already old, would I have such an idea? Now I just want to start our small shop and vegetable stall. Everyone in the city has He is a child, and both of us have jobs. We have two children, and our family relies on this shop. If I don’t build this shop, how can I let the Tianwang Tianci brothers live like children in the city? ?”
Luo Zhengjiang said it truthfully, which made Zeng Hongmei, who had just become jealous, very embarrassed and said guiltily: "I thought you were fascinated by those three girls. You will obey whatever they say."
"It depends on what you said. They are our customers. Of course I have to pay attention to what they say. Do you think, who buys more of the things sold in our store these days? Young people or old people? Luo Zhengjiang asked.
"Of course it's the young people. The elderly are all very careful with their money. Whatever they need, they go to the supermarket to buy it at a special price. Young people are the only ones who are too lazy to walk. Besides, the things they buy are not more expensive here than in the supermarket." Zeng Hongmei does not do business with her head covered.
"That's right. Since we mainly rely on these young people, then do we need to pay more attention to what they need?" Luo Zhengjiang asked.
