When someone asked about the price, Xie Jiaojiao immediately replied, "One tael is twenty coins, one catty is two coins!"

"so cheap?"

Cheap? Xie Jiaojiao looked at Sun Ruhua. She had asked Sun Ruhua about the price.

Sun Ruhua didn't say anything. Xie Jiaojiao turned around and said with a smile: "This sugarcane is grown by our family anyway, and it's the first time we sell it, so we let everyone have a taste. It's only cheap today, but it won't be this expensive next time!" Xie Jiaojiao felt that she must have sold it at a low price.

Xie Jiaojiao took out the knife again and cut a little for each person present. Everyone nodded slightly, acknowledging the quality.

Xie Jiaojiao continued, "When I was boiling it, I also added some sliced ​​ginger. If we women have some discomfort after giving birth or during the confinement period, eating this authentic sugarcane brown sugar is great!"

As soon as she said this, some people started buying: "Give me half a catty, don't shortchange me."

"That's not possible!" Xie Jiaojiao said with a smile.

Xie Jiaojiao weighed it immediately and then packed it for someone.

The man readily gave a penny.

After the first person bought it, the second person would say, "Give me some too. My wife just gave birth. I'll buy some for her to try and see if the effect is as good as you said."

"Okay, don't worry. Your wife will definitely like it when you buy it back. If you take good care of it, you can have two children in three years! How many do you want?" Xie Jiaojiao's mouth was as sweet as honey, and she said whatever she wanted.

"Just for saying you've had two babies in three years, give me a pound."

"Okay, mom, weigh the brown sugar for them."

Sun Ruhua was still shocked by Xie Jiaojiao's eloquence. Only after Xie Jiaojiao's shout did she come back to her senses and immediately started to pack the brown sugar.

We sold a lot of them gradually and many people bought them. After all, it is winter now and drinking brown sugar is the most nutritious thing in winter.

After selling for a while, the time with the busiest customer flow had passed.

However, most of the brown sugar that Xie Jiaojiao and her friends brought was sold.

Sun Ruhua's face was full of smiles. When she saw that no one was around, she said to Xie Jiaojiao, "I never thought it would sell so well!"

"That's because our brown sugar is authentic!"

As the two were talking, the lady boss of the bun shop came over.

"How do you sell this brown sugar?"

"Madam, one ounce is twenty cents, one pound is two cents."

When the proprietress heard this, she immediately took out a penny and said, "Give me half a pound too. I mixed the one you gave me with some water. It tastes a little different from the ones I usually buy. After drinking it, I feel a little warm all over."

Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "As long as you like it, I'll install it for you right away."

Xie Jiaojiao swiftly filled half a pound for her.

As soon as the boss lady left, Xie Jiaojiao bumped into Sun Ruhua and handed her the silver: "Mom, do you think everyone is back?"

Sun Ruhua's whole face was full of smiles: "Yes, yes, my daughter did the right thing."

After a while, some more people came and bought a lot, mostly one or two taels.

I sold a lot of them here and there.

Seeing that there wasn't much left, Xie Jiaojiao started to pack up her stall.

Seeing that there were still some left, Sun Ruhua wanted to continue selling them. Xie Jiaojiao said, "Mom, we can keep these for ourselves."

Sun Ruhua disagreed: "Our bodies are not that delicate, we can still sell them for some money."

Xie Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, we can't become a fat man with one bite, we can eat the rest by ourselves, there are fewer and fewer people in the market, and it's almost noon now, Xie Jiaojiao is hungry too."

Sun Ruhua glanced at the people in the market and finally sighed: "As you wish, as you wish!"

After closing the stall, Xie Jiaojiao took the bowl to the river in town to wash it, and then returned it to the boss. The boss still had a few buns left. Thinking that Xie Jiaojiao had brought a small piece of brown sugar to borrow the bowl in the morning, he filled it with three buns for her.

Xie Jiaojiao refused, and the lady boss smiled and said, "Take it. It's okay. If it's not sold out, it won't be fresh tomorrow."

Xie Jiaojiao secretly placed three copper coins next to the steamer before accepting it.

After they were all gone, the proprietress saw the copper coin. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She just thought that this girl knew how to behave!

Xie Jiaojiao brought the buns to Sun Ruhua and the others and said that they were given by the proprietress.

Sun Ruhua suddenly felt that this boss was a pretty nice person.

Xie Jiaojiao gave Xie Zhiyi a: "Be careful of the heat."

Xie Zhiyi took the bun, sniffed it desperately, and said to Xie Jiaojiao, "It smells so good, sister."

"Then eat quickly."

Xie Jiaojiao gave Sun Ruhua another one, but Sun Ruhua didn't eat it and wanted to put it away.

Xie Jiaojiao said, "Mom, eat it! I will make a lot of money in the future, and we can still afford these buns."

After saying that, he directly stuffed the bun in Sun Ruhua's hand into Xie Jiaojiao's mouth.

Sun Ruhua glared and took the bun: "Why are you wasting it like this, kid? We can save it for Zhiyi to eat in the afternoon!"

"You're drooling over this bun, but he won't eat it, isn't that Zhiyi?"

Xie Zhiyi nodded: "Mom, eat it, I have some!" After saying that, he smiled and raised the bun in his hand that he had taken a bite of towards Sun Ruhua.

Only then did Sun Ruhua eat the buns.

Xie Jiaojiao poured a bowl of brown sugar water for each person using the bowl she brought from home. Everyone drank it and felt their stomachs warm.

The three of them smiled at each other, and finally left with the backpacks on their backs.

I saw Xie Jiaojiao walking to a clothing store and was about to go in.

Sun Ruhua quickly grabbed her and asked, "Why are you buying clothes?"

Xie Jiaojiao looked at Sun Ruhua and said, "Mom, I said at the beginning that I would buy Zhiyi a new set of clothes after I earned my first sum of money. Look, there is a little bit of his pants exposed. It's winter now, isn't he cold?"

Sun Ruhua took a look and said, "It's okay. I'll go back and find a piece of cloth to connect it to the other end."

Xie Jiaojiao felt that Sun Ruhua was really frugal!

Xie Zhiyi showed a hint of disappointment on his face, but he immediately turned into that sunny little boy again, pulling Xie Jiaojiao's clothes and said with a smile: "Sister, it's okay, just listen to mom!"

Xie Jiaojiao refused.

"Mom, we earn money to have a better life. If we don't spend the money, what's the point of working so hard to earn it?"

Sun Ruhua still didn't give in.

Xie Jiaojiao continued, "I know that Mom has been living in poverty for the past year because of Dad's illness, but if we have money but still have to live in poverty, then we will have to live this hard life for the rest of our lives! I work so hard to make money so that we can eat and dress well, but if Mom is like this, I will never do anything to make money in the future."

Seeing that Xie Jiaojiao was also unhappy, Sun Ruhua said, "Then it's up to you, it's up to you!"

Xie Jiaojiao then smiled, pulled Sun Ruhua's arm, and said coquettishly: "My mother is the best mother in the world!"

After she said that, Sun Ruhua was unwilling in her heart. She took Xie Zhiyi's hand and said, "I will buy Zhiyi a new set of clothes today!"

Xie Zhiyi's face turned red with excitement. This was the first time someone bought him new clothes since he could remember!

When they got to the shop, Xie Jiaojiao picked out a gray-white cotton coat and trousers for Xie Zhiyi. Sun Ruhua was not very satisfied. She picked up a dark gray suit next to it and said, "It's better to buy dark colors when buying clothes. You will be working in the fields, and dark colors are more resistant to dirt."

Xie Jiaojiao listened to Sun Ruhua and asked what Xie Zhiyi was like.

Xie Zhiyi smiled and agreed.

After buying Xie Zhiyi's, Sun Ruhua didn't rush to pay, but walked over to the women's section and picked one up: "Jiaojiao, what do you think of this one?"
