Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard
Chapter 42
Come on, I''ve only been calling someone else''s brother for half a day! Du Xiaoli''s ventriloquism. Seeing two people still wanting to make wine, they quickly stopped the way: "this wine is not what you drink like this. I want to fight for a liquor and I''ll find a Baijiu for you."
"Ha ha -" seeing the heartache on Du Xiaoli''s face, Du Xiuheng and Luo Qi laughed.
Du Xiaoli rose to hold the wine Baijiu, put the wine away, and pulled his face to eat his own meal. These two people dare to laugh at her together! Be careful she''s angry. She won''t make breakfast for them tomorrow!
Time passed in a hurry, and in the twinkling of an eye it came to the end of July.
At this time, the oranges are already sweet. Even the seasonal wind can eat one at a time. Du Xiaoli picked a basket of oranges, borrowed Han Mingyi''s carriage and tried to sell the fruit in the county.
The sound of horse hoofs was ringing. Du Xiaoli sat in the carriage. This was the second time she took Han Mingyi''s carriage. The first time was when lenger went to pick up Ji Liufeng. That time she just sat outside and saw Ji Liufeng when she opened the curtains. She didn''t see the layout inside. So now Du Xiaoli feels extremely uncoordinated when he sees the noble and gorgeous carriage decorated and his tattered basket.
Especially the owner of the carriage!
Du Xiaoli looked at him without saying a word and wondered if he would jump up and scold himself if he soiled his carriage, and then regret agreeing to her? What''s more, if this man doesn''t stay at home, why do he come to join the fun?
"I haven''t seen selling oranges. Let''s go and have a look." Du Xiaoli almost answered when he thought of his excuse. You''re too busy!
Luo Qi was left at home by her because she didn''t know if there would be anyone who knew him in the county. If it''s his people, it''s OK. If it''s the enemy, it''s in trouble, so it''s better not to come out.
Ji Liufeng said that he was not interested in selling things, so he didn''t come out. He was accompanied by lengyi and lenger who were driving a carriage outside.
"Don''t you worry that your oranges won''t sell?" Han Mingyi asked when he saw Du Xiaoli''s face full of excitement.
Although she had planted oranges in her previous life, they were purchased directly by outside buyers from their relatives'' village, so it was the first time for her to sell things. When Han Mingyi asked himself, Du Xiaoli smiled and said, "it''s normal that people here haven''t seen oranges at first. So I''m ready. It''s good when the market opens."
"You are open-minded." after Han Mingyi said a word, he stopped talking and just reclined on the couch to rest.
Leng Yi Leng Er directly drove the carriage to the fruit market in Du Xiaoli''s mouth. After the carriage stopped steadily, Du Xiaoli pulled the curtain and asked, "are you there?"
"Yes. Here we are." lenger took the lead in jumping down and helped her take down the basket.
Lengyi frowned, looked around and said to Han Mingyi, "young master, it''s too dirty here. You''d better be in the carriage."
Du Xiaoli glanced at the stall in the market and said, "brother Xiaoyi, why don''t you go to other places for a while."
Han Mingyi opened the curtain, took a look, calmly got down from the carriage and said, "it doesn''t hurt."
Du Xiaoli paid the booth fee for 100 copper plates in the management area, and then asked lenger to take the basket to an empty space outside, put it down, take out a piece of cloth and spread it on the straw, and then take out the oranges one by one and stack them like a hill.
"What kind of fruit is this? Why haven''t you seen it?" someone asked in surprise when he saw Du Xiaoli''s oranges.
"It''s called orange. Would you like some?" Du Xiaoli asked with a smile.
The aunt looked at it, finally shook her head and said, "what if I eat the fruit I haven''t seen? I think I''d better forget it."
When the first business was not done, Du Xiaoli was not discouraged and continued to wait behind his stall.
"Young master." lengyi found a place to put the carriage and brought him a stool. Han Mingyi sat behind Du Xiaoli and watched the guests come and go. He didn''t sell an orange for nearly an hour.
"Girl, you won''t stay here all day. Can''t you sell an orange?" lenger squatted beside Du Xiaoli and asked.
Du Xiaoli took an orange, peeled it and gave it half to lenger. He said, "it''s not surprising that even none of them can be sold. It''s normal for people in this world to accept it for a while. You think they are all like you."
Because of boredom, Du Xiaoli ate oranges one by one. A woman in her twenties wanted to try when she saw that she also ate oranges. Du Xiaoli handed a piece of the orange she ate. The woman thought it tasted good, so she asked the price.
"Ten copper plates a kilo," said Du Xiaoli.
"Ten copper plates a catty, isn''t your price too high?" said the woman.
"This is already the lowest price. Do you see if there is another one selling my orange in the whole market? If you buy it again in two days, it will not be the price." Du Xiaoli explained with a smile.
Ten copper plates, just about one yuan, where is it expensive?! Well, she ignores the productivity of today''s society. But it''s all shouted out. Let''s sell it.
The woman thought about it and thought it was acceptable, so she spent ten copper coins to buy a kilo. Du Xiaoli said she was her first guest and gave her two others. "Go slowly, aunt." Du Xiaoli said with a smile and happily put ten copper plates into his small satchel. With the first person to eat crabs, some people tried again and again. Some people didn''t like the taste, some people thought it was too expensive, but they finally sold a few kilograms. At this time, two women dressed as servant girls came to the market, but even if they were dressed as servant girls, their clothes looked much better than ordinary people. "Sister Hong, where can I sell plum this season?" said a servant girl anxiously. The so-called red sister''s face was also full of melancholy and said, "Xiaocui, are you sure there are no plums now?" Xiaocui nodded and said, "the plum ripening season has long passed. Moreover, there are no sour fruits to sell recently." "Madam has been very unhappy recently and wants to eat sour. What can I do?" red sister was even more anxious, He took Xiaocui to the market and said, "let''s go and see what fruit there is first." they walked around the market and found no sour fruit. They couldn''t help feeling a little lost. "Sister Hong, what if my wife gets angry?" Xiaocui quickly cried and said: "my wife has changed since she was pregnant. We......" shut up, can my wife arrange at will? "Sister Hong whispered.
