Soul Travel: I was bought by the fierce man in the village to farm

Chapter 90 Puppy

On the day of the market, the two got up late and packed their things. When they set off, the sun was shining all over the yard.

Li Yunshan carried the fish on his back and carried it in both hands, while Mao Xiaosui only took an egg basket and a cloth bag.

In the cloth bag were honey and six soap bars for the Ding family.

By the time they got to the market, the bridge was already full, and she couldn't move the eggs even if she wanted to.

Li Yunshan put down his things by the bridge, pulled some grass from the side, and then looked at her and said, "Shout."

"..." Mao Xiaosui cleared his throat, glanced towards the bridge, and then shouted, "If you buy eggs, you will get eggs for free..."

As expected, some people who were close came over after shouting out this voice.

One of the old ladies recognized her and said, "Are you still sending eggs today?"

"Buy twenty, get one free, that's all for today, while supplies last."

The old lady was also timid, fearing that she might not get it like last time, so she quickly picked twenty fish by herself without being in a hurry to pay for them, and looked at the fish in the bucket again.

"Do you want to give me this fish too?"

Mao Xiaosui was not angry and said with a smile, "If you buy ten, I will give you one as a gift."

"That's too much." The old lady shook her head and said after deliberation, "I'll buy five and you can give one as a gift."

"That won't work." She hurriedly smiled and waved her hands, "These five fish are only twenty copper coins, so I'm not at a loss. The fish are sold cheaply now. It would be great if you buy them back and dry them for the winter. You can't even buy them when the weather gets cold. .”

The old lady still thought it was too much, "Then if I buy five of them and you give me an egg, that's okay, right?"

"Okay, you have the final say."

Mao Xiaosui let her choose, and then took another egg and put it in her basket.

The fish were all sold by the piece. The old lady of Wutiao Fish turned over the bucket. Mao Xiaosui was not angry. After taking the money, she said with a smile, "Grandma, I'll come back later..."

The old lady smiled and waved her hand and left.

She handed the money to Li Yunshan next to her and started shouting at the top of her voice.

Just buying eggs and getting free eggs can attract many buyers, and customers who buy eggs will more or less buy a few fish.

Li Yunshan stood silent, only helping to hold or tie fish when someone wanted to buy it.

The basket of eggs was gone in the blink of an eye, and there weren't many fish left.

Mao Xiaosui felt a little melancholy, "This soap is really hard to sell." She mostly recommended it to young women or women with better clothes. Even though it was cheaper than what the boy sold, everyone still thought it was expensive.

"A piece of soap can feed the average person in this town for a month, so it's normal that it's hard to sell."

When she thought about it, she stopped worrying and shouted at the top of her voice, "Buy ten fish and get one fish free."

Li Yunshan put his hand into the bucket and counted it, reminding her, "There are eight left."

"It's the same thing if someone buys it, but it's the same thing if you sell it for money first and then send it to my sister-in-law's house after the fish is fat."

Li Yunshan didn't say anything after hearing this, but he didn't expect that after shouting for a while, someone actually bought ten pieces.

Li Yunshan poured the water in the bucket down the slope, packed his things and went to Ding's house.

The butcher's shop was open today. When Ding Azhuang saw them, he smiled and asked, "Are you here to buy meat?"

Li Yunshan looked at the meat on the chopping board and said, "Leave a large piece of suet for me. I'll come over and get it later."

"Sure." Ding Azhuang looked at Mao Xiaosui with a smile, his attitude was obviously much kinder than that towards Li Yunshan, and said, "Save it for lunch and let your sister-in-law fry the meat for you."

Mao Xiaosui glanced at Li Yunshan, smiled, and said, "Brother, let's go there first."

Ding Azhuang wanted to see the stall, so he said, "Go, Ping An and your sister-in-law are at home."

The gate of Ding's house was open, and Ding Ping'an was playing with a palm-sized black dog in the yard. The dog noticed it keenly and barked at them before they could say anything.

Ding Ping'an also saw them, and called out in a sweet voice, "Sui Sui little aunt..."

Auntie Ding came out after hearing the commotion. She glanced at the fish on Li Yunshan's back and asked with a smile, "Is the fish fat now?"

"It's okay." Li Yunshan asked, "Where to pour it?"

Auntie Ding reached out and touched Ding Ping'an's head and said softly, "Ping'an goes to the kitchen to get a bucket."

Ding Ping'an ran away, and soon came out carrying a wooden bucket that was shorter than hers and placed it on the ground with a clang.

Li Yunshan poured the fish in and said, "I will send more over the next few days when the fish becomes fatter."

Mrs. Ding invited them to sit in the house.

Mao Xiaosui took out the honey from the cloth bag and took two pieces of soap.

Ding Pingan stared curiously.

Mao Xiaosui handed her the soap, touched her head and smiled, "I promised it to you before."

Ding Pingan looked confused but still very happy.

Auntie Ding knew it was expensive and refused to let her take it. She put it back in the bag and said, "Just give some of the soap nuts you picked up. Keep this thing and sell it for money."

"It doesn't matter." Mao Xiaosui put it back into Ding Ping'an's hand.

Ding Ping'an looked at her mother and happily took it after seeing that her mother had no objection.

Mao Xiaosui opened the lid of the honey and let her smell it.

It was the first time for Mrs. Ding to see this thing. She stretched out her fingers and tasted it, and her eyes lit up. "Is this a new thing in town? It tastes so sweet."

"We did it ourselves."

Aunt Ding had a surprised expression on her face, but fortunately she didn't ask any more questions and accepted it happily.

In the yard, the puppy kept barking "嘤嘤嘤...". Ding Pingan put the soap and went out, and soon he brought it in.

Auntie Ding frowned and said, "Don't bring it in."

Ding Pingan looked at Mao Xiaosui and asked eagerly, "Auntie, do you want to touch me?"

Mao Xiaosui liked dogs very much. He stretched out his hand to touch it and asked, "Where did this come from?"

"It was born by the old dog at home. It would be too pitiful to throw it away. If you don't throw it away, there will be nothing to feed it. I have been worried these past few days..."

"Don't you want to raise me?"

Auntie Ding looked at Li Yunshan and asked hesitantly, "Do you want it?"

Mao Xiaosui, who was studying under Ding Ping'an, looked at Li Yunshan eagerly.

Li Yunshan glanced at the dog and sighed, "Keep it."

Auntie Ding immediately laughed when she heard this, "A Zhuang wanted to give him one before, but he said he didn't want any waste food..."

Mao Xiaosui glanced at him sheepishly, then reached out and touched the dog again.

The bastard is a bitch, he is fierce but he doesn't bite, he just keeps barking.

It was almost time, and Auntie Ding said, "You guys sit down while I cook."

"No more trouble." Li Yunshan stood up, "The food is drying in the yard at home. There will be a thunderstorm at noon. We have to go back and clean up."

After hearing what he said, Mao Xiaosui hurriedly agreed, "We have to go back. It rained again yesterday. There have been thunderstorms in the past few days. If you come back late, you will be in trouble again."

"There's no thunderstorm today. It'll be quick. Let's go after dinner."

"Don't bother." Li Yunshan walked out.

Mao Xiaosui also smiled hurriedly and said, "You have nothing to do. I'm really worried about the food in the yard."

After saying a few more words, Aunt Ding knew she couldn't keep him so she gave up and sent them out. Before leaving, Mao Xiaosui picked up the puppy and said to Ding Ping'an, "Auntie Ding took you away, don't cry..." "

Ding Pingan laughed "giggle...", waved his hand, and said, "Uncle, goodbye aunt."

When they walked to the butcher shop, Ding Azhuang happened to be doing business. They waited for a while, and after the customer left, Li Yunshan said, "Cut a piece of suet."

Ding Azhuang threw each piece on the scale and asked them, "Don't keep any for dinner."

"The food is drying in the yard for fear of another thunderstorm."

Ding Azhuang said nothing more, looked at the scale and said, "Two hundred."

Mao Xiaosui was a little speechless. Could this person be cheating them because he couldn't sell it?

Li Yunshan quickly handed over the money and took a piece of meat.

Mao Xiaosui immediately couldn't hold back his laughter.

Ding Azhuang ignored him and reached out to pick up the minced meat on the board and fed it to the grunting puppy in Mao Xiaosui's arms.

The puppy ate the meat and then calmed down for a while.

Mao Xiaosui looked at the room behind him and asked, "Are there any bones?"

"No more, feed the dog."

"When are you going to kill a pig next time? Just leave me the bones of the pig's thigh."

"It will be mid to late next month. Come and get it when you go to the market."
