Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 31 Repaying a favor

After hearing this, the shopkeeper grinned and asked, "What kind of clothes are you going to buy, young lady?"

"It's the same fabric. This time I bought it for my grandparents and me. Three sets of clothes in total."

"Good good..."

An Yue briefly told the shopkeeper about her grandmother's appearance, and she quickly found clothes of corresponding sizes and packed them one by one.

"Madam, do you have any swaddling clothes for newborn babies in the shop?"

"Yes! Yes! Let me show you."

Then, the shopkeeper's wife took out a thick quilt and a belt from the cabinet next to her.

"Girl, is this thickness okay?"

My aunt Wei is due to give birth next year when the weather gets hot, so she can’t buy anything too thick.

"Take a thinner one and give birth next summer."

"Okay, okay, I understand! I understand!"

She then took out a small quilt and a belt of suitable thickness.

"Is this okay?"

An Yue nodded and said, "Okay! Please, Madam Shopkeeper, calculate the total amount."

"Three pieces of clothing cost 280 wen, and a swaddling blanket costs 225 wen, so the total is 505 wen. This little customer is a regular customer, so I'll give you 5 wen and charge you 500 wen."

The shopkeeper thought that this time she would lower the price directly and proactively so that An Yue would feel embarrassed to bargain again.

An Yue smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank the shopkeeper, Madam."

She thought that since she had taken the initiative to lower the price this time, it would be a bit unreasonable to bargain again.

Seeing that she couldn't carry all these things herself, she might as well ask someone to send these things to Zhang Kai's stall.

An Yue calmly took out three taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper.

"You're welcome! Fine! Wait a moment."

The shopkeeper's wife took the three taels of silver and gave a hundred copper coins to An Yue.

"Madam Shopkeeper, I bought too many things. I can't carry them with my small arms and legs. I'll have to trouble you to arrange some help to deliver them to the main street."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "No problem."

Then, the shopkeeper shouted to the woman at the door: "You! Come here! Help the girl deliver the things to the place she specified."

"Yes...Madam Shopkeeper."

The woman walked up to the shopkeeper, bowed, and followed An Yue out of the tailor shop.

An Yue put all the clothes in the backpack and said to the woman, "You carry this backpack. The jars are filled with salt and vinegar. Let me make a deal. If you break it, you have to pay for it."

Even though the woman was extremely reluctant, she had no choice but to pick up the backpack and follow An Yue as the shopkeeper gave the order.

An Yue was thinking in her heart about the woman's attitude towards the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren when she first entered the tailor shop.

He couldn't help but turn around and said to the woman word by word: "From now on, don't look down on others!"

The woman was very angry, but she dared not say a word. She could only lower her head and follow obediently.

After walking a few steps, she saw her grandfather and uncle sitting next to Zhang Kai and his wife's stall, and An Yue walked towards them.

An Yue asked with concern: "Uncle, aunt, how are the mountain products selling?"

Li said tiredly, "Oh! There are still so many left to sell!"

An Yue instructed the woman to put the backpack in front of her grandfather. After putting the backpack down, the woman turned around and ran away quickly.

Li asked in confusion, "Who is that person?"

"The apprentice in the tailor shop, I can't lift it, so I asked her to help."

Li was surprised and asked, "Ah! Yueyue, why did you buy so many things?"

"Aunt, the weather is getting colder and colder. We should buy some thick clothes."

Uncle Jiang Chenghai asked, "Yueyue, why did you buy so many clothes?"

"I bought one for my grandparents, but I didn't buy one for you and your aunt."

"But I bought it for the baby in my aunt's belly."

My uncle smiled and said, "It's still early! Why spend that money?"

Then the grandfather took out the things that An Yue bought from her backpack and put them into his own basket one by one.

An Yue looked at the people on the street at this time. They were sparsely distributed. If she kept waiting like this, she would definitely not be able to sell out even if she waited until dark.

She recalled the most difficult day when she and her brother were driven out of the house by their grandparents. She was really grateful for Li's kindness that day, as it was she who took the brother and sister to find their grandmother.

Generally speaking, the couple behaved very well, so I thought I should help them. Although there are not many pedestrians on the street, I will try my best to sell as much as I can, as a way of repaying their kindness!

An Yue walked up to her grandfather, stood on tiptoe, and asked in a low voice: "Grandfather, how about I go and help them?"

Grandfather thought for a moment and nodded to Anyue to show his agreement.

An Yue walked up to Zhang Kai and his wife and said, "Uncle, it's getting late! You must be hungry! Why don't you let me help you sell the food? I'll sell as much as I can."

Zhang Kai said somewhat dejectedly: "There are already so few people on the street, it's useless to shout, right?"

An Yue took the knife from her uncle's basket, walked to the middle of the stall, and motioned to Li to give her the knife. An Yue cleared her throat and knocked the two knives back to back.

when!when!when!

An Yue shouted loudly: "Come, come, come... go this way, look this way, if you don't look this way, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"

When people in groups of three or four heard the tinkling sounds, they all turned around and looked in the direction of An Yue.

An Yue knocked three more times and continued to shout, "You have traveled from south to north, you can't let your family down."

At this time, two men came forward, took a look, and asked, "Girl, how much is this pork per pound?"

"Sir, fresh wild boar meat is delicious and inexpensive. It's 20 cents a pound. Buy some and take it home to have a happy New Year."

The man said, "Weigh three pounds for me."

Li was laughing happily and hurried to weigh the things.

Another man who was traveling with us also pointed at the pork and said with a smile, "Weigh two pounds for me too."

Zhang Kai looked at everyone gathering around them, and instantly became energetic. He said with a smile on his face: "Okay! Please wait a moment!"

"Come and take a look. Our pork is really good."

After shouting for a quarter of an hour, men, women, old and young all gathered around. Although there were not as many people as in the morning, everyone who passed by would look over here curiously.

When they saw that it was wild boar meat, and since there were mostly rich people in the town, they bought a pound and a half of it without thinking.

Half an hour later, all the mountain products were sold out.

Zhang Kai and his wife looked at their stall which was selling out completely and were so happy that they were a little overwhelmed.

Li grinned and said, "Yueyue, I didn't expect you to be able to hawk your wares. Your hawking is really interesting."

Li's face was covered with fine lines from smiling, and he looked particularly honest.

Zhang Kai sorted the baskets and said, "Let's go, let's go... Let's go home! Let's go home! I'm really tired!"

"His father, shall we buy a bunch of candied haws for Goudan to take back?"
