When people who didn't buy it saw this, they immediately complained.
“I’ve been waiting in line for this for a long time, why is it gone?”
"I'm really sorry, little girl. How about this, I'll come over and sell it at this time tomorrow. If you want a few pieces, I'll keep them for you and I won't let you make another trip in vain. How about that?"
Ning Pengpeng smiled and said to the woman dressed as a woman.
"Mom, you really know how to joke. I'm already the mother of two children, so why am I still a little girl? Let's do this, leave me six yuan. It's a blessing for good fortune and longevity. It just so happens that my parents-in-law and I can give it to each other.
Let’s try it together.”
The woman touched her face shyly and said boldly, but after saying that, she felt a little distressed. After all, it cost twenty cents!
"Oh, I really didn't realize that you are actually married? Oh, your husband's family has married such a filial daughter-in-law like you. I'm afraid my teeth will fall out of joy if I don't dream about it at night. And your parents,
My love for you is really not in vain. Such a filial and good boy is really good."
Ning Pengpeng directly poured out basket after basket of good words, coaxing the woman to smile and feel elated. She originally felt sorry for the twenty cents, but she just felt that no matter how expensive it was, the pastries were bought for the elders, so this money was worth it.
value.
"Auntie, you must keep it for me tomorrow!"
"Remember to leave it for us too, we've been waiting in line for so long!"
The people behind also started to cheer and shouted.
"Hey, I can remember this girl alone. There are so many of you, it's really embarrassing for me as an old man. I'm old and my memory is not very good. In this way, I will make more tomorrow and bring it to you. Can you remember it?
How about coming early?"
"Okay, then you must remember and do more."
Hearing Ning Pengpeng say this, everyone thought about it and told Ning Pengpeng to remember to make more and sell it.
Seeing Ning Pengpeng nodding in assurance, everyone left with satisfaction.
"Mom, there are so many people, we can't do so much, right?"
Ning Laosan tightly clutched the bag of copper coins he had just received from selling pastries, and then said to Ning Pengpeng nervously.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Most of the people in the market were shouting just now. Who knows which one really wants it and which one is joking?"
Ning Pengpeng rolled her eyes at him, snatched the money bag from his hand, then carefully tied it into a knot and put it into the basket that had been sold out.
"Then...then why did mother agree just now?"
When Ning Laosan saw his mother saying this, he was confused and asked in confusion.
"You are the only one who talks a lot. What did I tell you when you came?"
"Look more, talk less."
Ning Laosan scratched his scalp and honestly repeated what his mother had said that morning.
"As long as you know, let's go to the food store to buy something."
Ning Pengpeng picked up the backpack that was lying upside down on the ground, stuffed it into Ning Laosan's arms, and walked towards the food store she remembered.
In addition to shelled brown rice and polished rice, grain shops in Anzhen also sell millet, soybeans, red beans, mung beans, peanuts and other miscellaneous grains.
Brown rice and other miscellaneous grains are basically bought by people in the town who are not very wealthy.
However, there is relatively little polished rice in the shop. Most of it is bought by those whose families can afford it. There is not much demand, so there is not much stock.
After all, rich people have Zhuangzi, and the fruits, vegetables and grains at home are provided by Zhuangzi, so there is no need to go to outside grain stores to buy things like polished rice.
What Ning Pengpeng had to do was to open a door to a wealthy family and sell her things to that wealthy family.
If you just rely on the not-so-wealthy people in the town to do business, you can make money, but you won't be able to make a lot of money.
She has to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse before she can use a carriage to replace her legs?
When she thought that she had to get up so early every day and walk in the dark from a dozen miles away to the town, and then walk a dozen miles back to the village from the town, she felt that her legs no longer belonged to her.
So, she wants to do something that is not available here.
"Boss, give me five pounds of peanuts."
Ning Pengpeng said loudly as soon as he walked into the food store.
Ning Laosan was originally following her. When he heard what she said, he immediately stepped forward anxiously, grabbed his mother's sleeve and pulled her out.
"Mom, why did you come to this food store to buy peanuts? The peanuts in this food store cost five cents per catty. It is better to buy them directly in the village. They only cost three cents."
"Uh, three cents per catty, actually two cents per catty cheaper?"
Ning Pengpeng scratched her chin in embarrassment. Her mind couldn't turn around for a moment. She only thought about buying peanuts at a grain store. She didn't expect that these grains were the most indispensable in the village.
In modern society, you may not even know your neighbors, let alone ask your neighbors to buy food!
Ning Pengpeng was about to say sorry to the shopkeeper of the grain store, but she saw the shopkeeper rolled his eyelids, gave her and Ning Laosan a big eye roll, and muttered in his mouth.
"You poor guy, don't come out and embarrass yourself."
After hearing these words, not only Ning Laosan clenched his fists, but Ning Pengpeng's fists could not help but clenched as well.
Huh, don’t bully young people into being poor!
Although her body was already thirty-nine years old, she felt that as long as she worked hard enough, she would definitely let the food store owner know that she looked down upon others.
"Let's go buy some candy."
The candy can be bought at the grocery store, that is, the shop owned by Mr. Ning's father-in-law's family.
“Mom, it’s not the New Year’s Day, why are you buying candies?”
Sugar is not as good as salt. Every household has to eat salt, but sugar is given to people during festivals and festivals.
If any family makes a bowl of brown sugar water when entertaining guests, it means that a distinguished guest is coming!
"Mom, why are you here?"
Boss Ning was guarding the shop. When he looked up, he saw his own mother running in in a hurry, and his eyes widened immediately.
Could it be that the old lady regretted it just two days after the separation?
"Boss, don't you sell brown sugar in your store? Give me five kilograms of it."
Ning Pengpeng waved directly to Boss Ning and said. When he heard his mother's words, Boss Ning spat out a mouthful of saliva and almost choked himself to death.
"Brown sugar... five... five pounds?"
When he said these words, Boss Ning almost bit his own tongue.
"Yeah, I don't know if it's enough."
Ning Pengpeng frowned and considered carefully, not noticing the look of confusion on his two sons' faces.
Many of the things she wants to make require the use of sugar.
There is no white sugar here, only brown sugar, so there is no other way but to find a way to purify the brown sugar into white sugar.
However, in this way, after removing impurities from five pounds of brown sugar, four pounds of white sugar can be produced, which is already very good!
And four pounds of white sugar, if used to make things to sell, will not last long. This chapter has been completed!
