"Chinese cabbage, fresh Chinese cabbage, come and take a look."
"Eggs, eggs are for sale. Do you want to buy eggs?"
"I sell meat. If you buy meat, you will get a bone to make soup."
"Pear for sale."
"Come and take a look. They are all home-grown oranges. They are very sweet."
…
Carrying a basket.
Wherever he passed, Yu Lan heard the sounds of various vendors selling goods.
This is the Caishi Street, which is where all kinds of food are bought and sold. At the end of this street is the Caishikou, which is also the official execution ground.
Normally, the place is very empty and there are not many people there. However, if someone breaks the law and is beheaded in public, there will be many people watching.
In that case, the sentenced person would be put in shackles and paraded through the streets first. After being spurned and beaten with rotten leaves, when the time was up, he would be pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market and clicked off.
As for the street diagonally opposite Caishikou, it is the Commercial Street. If you want to buy clothes or jewelry, you have to go there. It is connected to Caishi Street.
When buying vegetables, you have to choose fresh ones, so that the fried vegetables taste good.
There are many stalls selling vegetables on the roadside. The so-called stall is actually a wooden board, and most ordinary people place it directly on the ground on the roadside.
There are all kinds of meats and vegetables, which look quite complete.
"What should I buy?"
After muttering something, Yu Lan continued to walk forward, wanting to see what else there was.
Yu Lansheng was so good. As soon as she appeared, many people's eyes fell on her. There were even young men who wanted to approach her, but they didn't dare to approach her after seeing how well she had to be dressed.
.
No ordinary girl could wear a gold bracelet. Just looking at it made some people blush. They wished that the bracelet on Yu Lan's wrist would fall off and be picked up by them.
Yu Lan has been here once, so she is fairly familiar with it.
Look east and west.
Soon, Yu Lan knew what he wanted to buy.
Buy fresh chili peppers.
Celery is very fresh and tender, buy it too.
Pork, forget it, it doesn't look fresh. Generally speaking, if you want to buy fresh meat, you have to buy it in the morning, when the meat is the freshest.
After shopping around, Yu Lan bought a lot of things. Not only did she buy vegetables, but she also bought a chicken to prepare braised chicken nuggets for dinner tonight.
When she was going back, Yu Lan also bought some oranges. The basket she was carrying was full. Of course, the chickens were alive and could not be put into the basket, but she carried them separately.
Yu Lan is ready to go back.
After walking for a while, he stopped again.
I wonder what fruit I like to eat? Although I bought oranges, it is obviously my favorite.
After thinking for a while, Yu Lan turned to look at the place selling fruit.
banana.
pear.
apple.
Huh?
Those bunches were crystal clear. Yu Lan remembered that they seemed to be called grapes, so that was probably their name.
Yu Lan remembers that this kind of fruit seems to be a new variety introduced by Fan Bang. It is not easy to grow and the yield is not high, so it is sold very expensive. Ordinary people generally cannot afford it, and only rich people will buy it.
"This looks good, I'll buy some for you to try."
I just don't know if it tastes good or not.
Carrying the basket, Yu Lan walked towards the fruit shop diagonally opposite her. There were stalls at the door of the fruit shop, and there were many fruits and dried fruits on them.
There is a stall at the entrance of the fruit shop, so that people outside can see at a glance that it sells fruit.
Generally speaking, rare goods like grapes cannot be found on roadside stalls, and can only be purchased in shops like this.
Arriving at the stall, Yu Lan took a look at the grapes and asked.
"Boss, how do you sell this?"
"This is called grape. It's very sweet and delicious, but it's a little expensive."
"Then, how to sell it?"
"A bunch of five taels of silver."
"So expensive."
The price of this bunch of grapes is almost equal to two months’ wages of an ordinary family. No wonder only the rich can afford these grapes. Ordinary people, who would spend so much money just to buy a bunch of grapes?
eat?
All I can say is that I don’t understand the world of rich people.
"Girl, it's not expensive anymore. This thing is very expensive. You have to be careful when you bring it. If it gets touched, you can't eat it immediately. If you don't sell it more expensively, you won't be able to get it back. Let me tell you, these grapes, but
The emperor agreed to eat it."
The emperor said it was good after eating it.
Don’t lie to me if you don’t read much.
After taking a look, the green leaves and purple fruits looked good.
Yu Lan glanced at the boss and said with a smile: "Cheaper?"
Upon hearing this, the boss immediately waved his hand, "Girl, if you buy something else, I can make it cheaper, but this is really not cheap. Otherwise, if you buy it, girl, I will give you two pears."
It seems like the boss really doesn't want to be cheap.
Forget it, I can be considered a rich man now. This situation must be opened up, and I can't look like a poor man. Now, I am also a rich man.
Yu Lan glanced at the juicy grapes and said, "Then give me four bunches, no, three bunches will be fine. Remember to put the pears you gave me in them too."
Forget about the layout and whatnot.
Don’t pears taste delicious when you eat them?
Don’t give away the pears for free.
The boss smiled with a kind face.
"Okay, girl, just wait a moment, I'll put it on for you right now."
It was just three bunches of grapes, and I made an exquisite little basket to put them in. It looked high-end and classy at first glance.
It can be seen that only rich people can afford this food.
Fifteen taels of silver were gone just to buy a grape.
The tyranny feels good for a while, but the payment is not satisfactory.
Yu Lan felt quite sad when she paid. When she left, she asked the boss to give her another pear.
On the way back, Yu Lan was carrying a vegetable basket in his left hand and grapes in his right hand. He returned home with a full load.
Wait, I feel like I forgot something.
At this moment, the wind blows.
A few leaves fell overhead.
Stopping, Yu Lan raised his eyes and looked at the osmanthus tree on the roadside. In his memory, there seemed to be an osmanthus tree in front of his house.
When thinking about home, Yu Lan will inevitably think of some unhappy things.
For example, the old witch who secretly sold herself while her parents were working in the fields.
She also doesn’t know how her grandmother fooled her parents after she was sold.
Yu Lan was sure that her grandma would not admit to selling her, and she might even tell her parents that she got lost because of her own fun.
Although her father was a bit foolish and filial, he was definitely not stupid, and her mother would definitely not believe that she was the one who got lost. Thinking about it this way, she felt better.
Now, he would definitely not be able to go back for a while. Therefore, Yu Lan thought if he could write a letter to his family first, at least to let his parents know that he was still alive.
