"...Give me some white radish..."

Chapter 750 Selling Vegetables, Buying Vegetables

"...Weigh another lotus flower for me, and pick up two lettuce... Let me see, let's get some spinach again."

The old woman squatted down in front of the stall, looked at the vegetables in the bamboo basket, and said aloud,

"……it is good……"

The old man smiled and responded, holding the scale beam in his hand, bent down, picked up the vegetables in the bamboo basket, put them on the scale pan, and weighed everything,

"...I came here at noon. I wanted to ask Lao Cheng to buy something for you to go home, but Lao Cheng wasn't there at noon, so I said I'll come and have a look in the afternoon..."

"...The children in the room also said that I just need to find a vegetable stall to buy some vegetables and go home. Well, what's the matter, Lao Cheng, the vegetables sold at your stall are better than those sold at other stalls. Look, this The white radish is so juicy and tender..."

The old woman picked out the vegetables to buy, watched the old man weigh the vegetables, looked at the vegetables in the bamboo basket, and said aloud.

"...You're welcome, you're welcome... In the morning, I was delayed in the vegetable field and came late, sorry..."

Putting the weighed white radish into the bag, the old man picked up the spinach and weighed it. After a pause, he responded to the old woman and apologized.

"...That's right, Lao Cheng, you didn't say that you would set up a stall in the morning, but I just thought, when I went to the street at noon, you were here, Lao Cheng, and you should be here today."

"...Sorry, sorry..."

"……Eh."

The old woman smiled and said again, and the old man apologized again,

The old woman waved her hand, looked at the spinach that the old man had already weighed, and then lowered her head to look into the bamboo basket.

"...Old Cheng, weigh me some more Piao'erbai, just give me one."

"...Okay. I bought so many vegetables today."

"... Hey, it's not that my daughter came back with her grandson, and bought some food for dinner."

The old man put the weighed spinach in the bag, then bent down, picked up the bundled spinach from the bamboo basket, put it on the weighing pan, and weighed it.

The old woman smiled, answered, and talked.

"... Last time, when my grandson came back, I bought your radish from Lao Cheng and went back to burn it. He likes to eat it. When I come back this time, I still want to burn a radish."

"...He, last year he just learned how to walk, but this year, he has jumped so high, just like Mom when he was a child, it seems to be changing every day."

With a smile on her face, the old woman smiled and said,

"...When I came back, grandma and grandma screamed happily."

"...The child is back?"

The old man listened and responded with a smile,

"The little doll must be two or three years old?"

"...It's not...hey, the last time my grandson came back, didn't he bring it to the street, old Cheng, you watched him, old Cheng, do you remember?"

"Remember, remember..."

The old man smiled, weighed the ladle vegetables, put the ladle vegetables into the bag, and held the scale in his hand, and answered,

"...At that time, when you brought him over, he held a white radish in his hand, and said to you that he wanted to buy it..."

"...Eh, yes, yes, yes, the dishes are weighed, how much is it, old Cheng."

The old woman nodded with a smile, answered, and asked again,

"...Let me see,"

The old man handed the bag containing some vegetables to the old woman,

"...three yuan, four yuan...a total of 16 yuan."

"...Hey, here, Lao Cheng. Lao Cheng, I'll go back first. The grandson and his mother are still in the house waiting to go back. I'll go first, and I'll take care of your business another day. "

"well……"

The old man took the money, put it in his pocket, smiled and nodded,

The old lady carried the vegetables she wanted to buy, smiled, and gradually walked along the street.

……

"The dishes sold by the old man are very popular."

"It's okay, it's okay...Actually, it's all of them. I cook it myself. The vegetables I sell here are no different from those sold by other people."

Seeing the old woman walking away with the vegetables, Lian Ge turned his gaze, looked at the old man with a smile and said something,

The old man also turned around, smiled and responded.

"There are still some differences."

Turning his gaze, he glanced at the bamboo basket, where there were handfuls and piles of vegetables neatly arranged, the dirt and sand had been washed, and the old leaves had been shaved off. With a smile, Lian Ge said again Say a word,

The old man laughed and didn't respond.

"Old man, help me also weigh two white radishes."

Lian Ge knelt down, picked up two white radishes from the bamboo basket, and handed them to the old man.

"it is good."

The old man smiled, took the white radish, put it on the weighing pan and weighed it.

……

"...Uncle Cheng...Uncle Cheng, the celery I asked for yesterday..."

"Bring it, bring it..."

Just when the old man weighed the radish and put it in the bag,

On the far side of the street, a middle-aged man ran straight to the old man's booth and asked loudly,

The old man turned his head, looked at the middle-aged man, and responded with a smile. Then, from the side of the bamboo basket, he took out a bag of celery that had been stripped of withered yellow leaves and still had green leaves.

"...When it came out, I had already weighed it, and it was two catties in total...I'll weigh it for you again..."

The old man is holding celery and wants to put it in the weighing pan,

"...Don't weigh it anymore. Uncle Cheng, I can still trust you. As my father said, you have been buying vegetables for so many years, and there is no difference. What you said to bring the day before yesterday, you will bring what you bring the next day. .”

"Selling vegetables, it should be...Here, your dad likes to keep the leaves when he eats fried celery. He said that's how it tastes, and he always asks me to keep the leaves for him."

The middle-aged man said aloud, the old man smiled and replied, and handed the bag of celery in his hand to the middle-aged man,

"Thank you Uncle Cheng, Uncle Cheng, how much is it?"

The middle-aged man took the food, thanked him with a smile,

"……five yuan."

"Here. Uncle Cheng, you're still here tomorrow, can you bring me some more celery? My dad's appetite hasn't been very good these past two days, so he just wanted to eat fried pork with celery, so he had to ask you, Uncle Cheng, to grow it." Yes, it doesn’t taste like that if it can’t be fried by others…”

The middle-aged man handed the money to the old man, and then said aloud,

The old man took the money, paused,

"... Tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to come here tomorrow... I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"...It's okay...It's okay...Then...Uncle Cheng, let me buy some more Piaoerbai."

Hearing the sound, the middle-aged man paused, squatted down again, picked up the ladle and handed it to the old man,

"……good,"

The old man took the spoonful of vegetables, weighed it, and handed it to the middle-aged man.

"……how much."

"Three dollars."

After receiving the ladle, the middle-aged man took out the money from his pocket and handed it to the old man.

The old man took the money, and the middle-aged man carried the vegetables, and walked further away.

……

Watching the middle-aged man walk away, the old man stood up again, then turned around,

"...Sorry, young man, girl, for delaying you."

"Do you want something else?"

Turning around again, he put the weighed radish in a bag and handed it to Lian Ge, apologizing,

Lian Ge shook his head, took the radish that was weighed, and looked at the vegetables in the bamboo basket.

"...Old Cheng, what are the dishes for today?"

At this moment, another older lady walked by the booth, greeted the old man, squatted down,

"...Is there any hairy cabbage?"

"There are two..."

The old man smiled, responded, and greeted again.

Chapter 751 Definitely leave some for me

"...Weigh some hairy cabbage for me."

"...Hey, good. Girl, young man, take a look first, I'll weigh the dish for this guest first..."

"...The dish from you, Lao Cheng, is better. It's not like my daughter brought it back yesterday. The lettuce I bought was full of rotten leaves, and the old one was empty... Pick another lettuce with me. , I’ll buy it back and fry the meat.”

In front of the booth, the old lady who came over picked up the cabbage in the bamboo basket and handed it to the old man, talking,

The old man nodded, responded with a smile, turned his head, and greeted Lian Ge and Gu Xiaoying in front of the booth, then turned around, reached out to take the hairy cabbage handed over by the old lady, held the scale bar, and said,

"...That's all. My daughter is not in the house today. It's just me and the old man eating. These are enough."

Passed a piece of lettuce to the old man, after the old man took it,

The old lady squatted in front of the booth, looked down at some vegetables in the bamboo basket, said aloud, stood up,

"...Eh, here it is."

After weighing the lettuce, the old man bowed his waist, nodded, and answered, put the weighed vegetables into a bag and handed them to the old lady.

"……how much?"

Fumbled for some change from a pocket sewn inside the trousers, the old lady smiled and asked again,

"five yuan."

"...Here, old Cheng, I'm leaving first. I have to go back and cook for the old man in the house. Now, he opens his mouth when he comes for food, and stretches out his hands when he comes for clothes..."

After giving Zhang five yuan, the old lady carefully put the rest of the money back into the pocket sewn into her trousers, and said with a smile,

"...When you go to the streets tomorrow, I will take care of your business, Lao Cheng."

"...Tomorrow...I'm afraid I won't be able to come to the street for a while...the vegetables in the field are finished..."

The old lady carried a bag containing some vegetables, and said aloud,

The old man bowed his back, stood up again, and answered again.

"...the vegetables in the field are gone..."

The old lady paused, stood up,

"...Then give me the rest of the cabbage as well...Hey, it will be a while before you can eat the vegetables you grow, Lao Cheng, you have eaten it for so many years..."

"...Sorry, sorry..."

"...that makes sense..."

The old lady squatted down, picked up the handful of Chinese cabbage, handed it to the old man, paused, picked up the lettuce again,
