A small peasant girl's home is bare, but I have a spiritual space

Chapter 83 Lin Yiran's Fruits Amazed Shopkeeper Li

"This yellowish-brown guy with blunt thorns all over his body is 230 wen per jin, this red heart-shaped one with white sesame seeds on it is 200 wen per jin, this dark blue round cutie covered with a layer of frost is 180 wen per jin, and this bright yellow one with scales all over its body and green leaves on its head is 100 wen per jin." Lin Yiran pointed at durian, strawberries, blueberries, and pineapples and introduced them one by one.

"Ah? So expensive!" Shopkeeper Li exclaimed. This, this, this price is too outrageous.

How many people can afford this?

When Lin Yiran quoted the price, she had already anticipated that Manager Li would think it was too expensive, and she had already prepared an excuse.

"Shopkeeper Li, these fruits are indeed a bit expensive, but there is a reason for their expensiveness, as they are shipped across the ocean from other countries.

The transportation and storage costs are a considerable expense. Of course, the most important thing is their taste, you should try it first. "Lin Yiran only recently learned that the Great Xuan Kingdom has opened up maritime trade with other countries to exchange what they have.

It was precisely because of this that she dared to talk nonsense.

When Shopkeeper Li heard this, he was already somewhat interested. There were indeed fruits here that he had never seen before. Could they really be shipped from other countries?

If this is true, then it is not really expensive. These fruits look very fresh. I wonder how they were preserved?

"Do you charge for tasting?" Shopkeeper Li blurted out subconsciously. After he finished speaking, he realized what he had said and touched his goatee a few times in embarrassment.

Lin Yiran noticed his embarrassment and said with a smile: "It's free."

She took a strawberry and put it in Shopkeeper Li's hand, "I washed it, you can eat it directly."

Shopkeeper Li looked at the bright red, small and exquisite heart-shaped fruit in his hand. He touched it gently with his fingers. It was soft and tender like a newborn baby.

He held it in his hand and observed it carefully, fearing that the little red fruit would be crushed if he was not careful.

There was a hint of eagerness in his eyes. This fruit was so cute, his little master would definitely like it.

Seeing how he was treating it with such care, Lin Yiran couldn't help but laugh. She thought, "It's just a strawberry, there's no need to treat it like a formidable enemy."

"Manager Li, please try it quickly," Lin Yiran urged.

"Well, can I give this food tasting opportunity to someone else?" Shopkeeper Li said a little embarrassedly.

"Of course," Lin Yiran answered readily.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go get someone." Shopkeeper Li dragged his chubby body and ran like a marathon.

Lin Yiran and Third Brother Lin looked at each other. This Shopkeeper Li is such a wonderful person!

Just as the two were sighing, Shopkeeper Li came out holding a girl about six or seven years old with a bun on her head. The little girl, wearing a pomegranate red dress, opened her big watery eyes and looked at the beautiful big sister standing in front of her with curiosity.

A soft and sticky voice sounded: "Pretty sister, where is the beautiful red fruit that Grandpa Li mentioned? I want to see it, can I?"

"Of course," Lin Yiran looked at the well-behaved and lovely little girl in front of her with a smile, her fair and tender face still having a little baby fat.

Lin Yiran really wanted to go up and pinch some, so she lifted the car curtain and said generously: "Little sister, take whatever you like to eat."

The little girl cheered: "You are so nice, beautiful sister, I like you so much!" Then she ran straight to the carriage.

Lin Yiran...

Does he like me or my fruit?

The little girl saw the strawberries in the bamboo basket and said, "Wow, this is the red fruit that grandpa mentioned, right? So beautiful!"

She grabbed one and touched it again and again, but she was a little reluctant to eat it. What should she do?

Lin Yiran couldn't help laughing when she saw the little girl's conflicted look as she wanted to eat but was reluctant to do so.

She took another one from the basket and shook it in front of the little girl, "Open your mouth." The little girl subconsciously opened her mouth when she heard the little sister's words.

Lin Yiran stuffed the strawberry directly into her mouth, and the little girl's small mouth was bulged by the big strawberry.

Seeing the little girl staring at her blankly, Lin Yiran gently stroked her fluffy little head. "Why are you looking at me? Eat quickly!"

The little girl nodded, her mouth puffed up and down like a cute little squirrel. Lin Yiran was touched by the way she ate. She reached out her dirty hands and gently pinched the little girl's chubby little face.

It feels really good, chewy and bouncy, just like... She had wanted to do this when she saw the little girl just now, and now she finally got what she wanted. It was just as she imagined.

Lin Yiran laughed twice in his heart, hehe.

The little girl now only has the sweet and sour red fruits in her eyes. She doesn't care about the little sister pinching her face at all. As long as she is given the red fruits to eat, it doesn't matter how many times she is pinched.

This red fruit is really delicious. She wanted to eat more. She looked at the strawberry in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put it in her mouth.

After eating two strawberries in a row, the little guy's eyes turned to the other fruits in the car, "Wow, why does that big one taste so weird?"

She leaned forward again, took a deep breath, and quickly turned her head away from the carriage. "It stinks so bad. My poor little nose has to suffer with me."

The little girl's attitude of keeping a distance from durian reminded Brother Lin San of the first time he ate durian, and he couldn't help but want to tease her.

He peeled off a piece of durian flesh and stuffed it directly into the girl's mouth when she wasn't paying attention. "Try it. Although it smells bad, it tastes delicious."

The little girl was unexpectedly stuffed with a mouthful of durian pulp. The strong stench lingered in her nose, almost making her vomit. The little girl burst into tears.

Lin Yiran glared at Third Brother Lin. He was already such an adult, but he still didn't know the seriousness of the matter.

Brother Lin was full of regret at this time. He just thought the little girl was cute and wanted to tease her. Besides, durian was delicious! It was his favorite. He didn't expect to make the little girl cry!

He stood there awkwardly, totally not knowing what to do. Usually a silver-tongued man, he felt overwhelmed at this moment, not knowing how to respond at all.

Lin Yiran quickly went to the car to get the bamboo tube and unplugged it. "Come on, drink some water and rinse your mouth. This big brother is just teasing you. Don't cry. Be good."

Third Brother Lin's actions were too quick just now. Shopkeeper Li just reacted now and ran to the little girl with an anxious look on his face, "Shuyun, I'm sorry, I made you feel wronged. Don't cry anymore, grandpa will buy you your favorite red fruit."

The little girl, who had drunk two sips of water, had recovered. She smacked her lips, as if she was savoring the taste. When Lin Yiran put the bamboo tube to her lips again, the little girl pushed it away.

Lin Yiran looked at her in confusion. The little girl blushed and said, "Sister, I don't want to drink it anymore. This stinky thing actually tastes okay, but I was a little scared just now. Can you let me try it again?"

Shopkeeper Li...

Was he worrying for nothing?

Lin Yiran...

Is this conquered?

"Okay, sister will give you another piece to try." Lin Yiran broke off two pieces of durian flesh and gave one to Shopkeeper Li and the other to the little girl.

Shopkeeper Li looked at the piece of durian flesh in his hand and his puzzled eyes fell on Lin Yiran.

"Shopkeeper Li, you can also try it. It doesn't smell very pleasant, but it has a dense and delicate texture and is very delicious. My third brother just teased your granddaughter because he saw that she was well-behaved and cute. I'm sorry, I apologize to you on his behalf." Lin Yiran said embarrassedly.

Shopkeeper Li waved his hand in dismay, and smiled, "It's okay, Shu Yun seems to like it."

Lin Yiran turned to look at the little person standing in front of the carriage, who was eating heartily. There was only a little bit of the durian meat left in her hand. Seeing Lin Yiran looking at her, she quickly stuffed the remaining bit into her mouth, as if she was afraid that someone else would snatch it away.

Lin Yiran was amused by the way the little guy protected his food. This guy was undoubtedly another foodie.

Shopkeeper Li was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw this scene. He looked at the durian flesh in his hand. If the little girl Shu Yun thought it was delicious, it must taste good. He had seen how picky this little ancestor was about food. He decided to give it a try.

He endured the stench and took a bite, chewing it carefully. It melted in his mouth, delicate and residue-free, smooth like milk fat, with a rich taste and rich sweetness.

The taste is so amazing that his stomach was conquered at once. No wonder it is so expensive. It is just like what the little girl said, there is a reason why it is expensive.

Shopkeeper Li decided to taste all the fruits before deciding how much to buy.

He looked at Lin Yiran and said shamelessly: "Can I try other fruits?" "Of course," Lin Yiran responded readily.

It’s not that she is generous, but her third brother just made the girl cry, so she has to express her gratitude.

Besides, she was confident in the fruits grown in her own space, and she was afraid that he would not try them. As long as he tasted them, he would definitely not be able to escape this business.

Shopkeeper Li also knew that his request was a bit excessive. He felt a little embarrassed to let the grandfather and grandson taste such expensive fruit.

Seeing that the little girl agreed, he thanked her happily and went to the carriage to try the fruits he had never eaten before.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice sounded, "Xiao Shuyun, what delicious food are you eating now, little greedy cat?"
