Chapter 188 He decided to hide those dark thoughts
After the meal, Li Tannian picked new black and purple grapes from the space and gave them to the four little ones.
The four little ones, their eyes widened, just circled the small table where the grapes were placed twice.
Little Si Bao wanted to reach out and touch it, but the paw was only halfway out, and Er Bao grabbed it back again. Little Si Bao felt aggrieved and moved his other paw to grab it, but Er Bao also grabbed it back.
Little Si Bao was about to cry, and Sanya suddenly said: "Mom, this fruit looks similar to a grape, but it looks bigger than a grape, and there is a layer of white ash on it. It should be more delicious than a grape.
Bar."
Dabao glanced at his third sister and silently added: "This is grape."
This is grape?!
Erbao, Sanya, and Xiaosibao looked steadily at the black and purple grapes, and all took a gulp of saliva.
Grapes, their mother actually bought them so many grapes!
"Mom, there are too many. We don't like to eat them either. You'd better take them back." Dabao looked at the grapes as if he were looking at money, with a look of pain on his face.
The other three little beans were reminded by Dabao and suddenly came to their senses.
"Mom, how much did these grapes cost you?"
"The second treasure doesn't like eating grapes either. Mother, please take her back."
"The Four Treasures don't like to eat either."
"I picked it up outside. I didn't spend much money. Eat it quickly. Mom has already washed it for you. It won't be fresh if you don't eat it." After Li Tannian said this, Lu Zhi, who was lighting a fire under the stove, raised his head and glanced at him.
His eyes moved slightly.
"Did you really pick it up?"
"if not?"
Li Tannian spoke without looking at Lu Zhi.
She had been running around outside all day, and she had sweated a lot, and her body was wet. She was really uncomfortable. After she got some hot water and a towel, she went to the hut next to her to wash herself off.
.
Lu Zhi listened to the faint sound of water, and pursed her thin lips tightly. She didn't want to tell him too much at all. Also, she didn't want to talk to him anymore, so how could she confess this to him!
Although she knew these truths, Lu Zhi still felt a little depressed. In the past, she couldn't recognize people well and just ran after Lin Ziyan. Now, she still can't see his existence.
Is he that bad in her mind?
In a daze, four little hands stretched out holding grapes.
When Lu Zhi raised his eyes, he saw the four little ones eating with their mouths full of purple juice.
He turned his eyes and glanced at the empty table with only two strings of bare poles left, and was speechless for a while.
******
After understanding the market situation, Li Tannian set the price of grapes at fifteen cents a piece the next day. After half a day, although the business was not as good as before, the sales volume was not less.
Luo Kui came again. He was still shy and wanted to bargain with Li Tannian. Who knew that Li Tannian's price increased instead of falling?
Luo Kuiben was still eager to use Li Tannian's grapes to please the courtesan's wife. When he heard this, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, stared at a pair of fire-breathing bull's eyes, swung his sleeves and left.
The fruit sellers who were waiting for Li Tannian to sell their goods didn't wait for anyone, so they came looking for them one after another and saw this scene.
They didn't expect that Li Tannian's stock price would rise so much overnight.
While they couldn't accept it, they had to negotiate with her about the price for a while. Li Tannian refused to bargain. The fruit sellers had no choice but to grit their teeth and buy some goods, while others simply gave up their thoughts.
However, Li Tannian's reputation gradually spread, and even attracted many admiring guests, and Master Bai was one of them.
At that time, Li Tannian was about to close the stall when he heard a nervous voice coming from above his head: "Madam, can you sell these grapes cheaper? I have sixteen copper coins here. Madam, can you sell me two grapes?"
"
Li Tannian was startled, and suddenly raised his head, and saw Master Bai staring at the grapes in front of her stall with a good look. From time to time, and then, he fiddled with the copper plate in his palm a few times, feeling quite tangled.
Although Mr. Bai in front of him was still neat and tidy in his long robe, his face looked tired and he had lost a lot of weight. It can be imagined that his life in recent times must have been unsatisfactory.
Seeing this situation, Li Tannian didn't know how she felt. Finally, she heard herself ask him: "Did you buy it for Lu Zhi'er?"
When Master Bai heard her voice, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes met, and the atmosphere around him seemed to freeze.
Surprise, panic, embarrassment and many other emotions were running through his mind. Master Bai subconsciously turned around and ran away, but accidentally bumped into the woodcutter's wooden cart. For a moment, the half-dried white-flour bun in his arms unexpectedly
It fell to the ground together with the copper plate.
He didn't dare to delay, picked it up quickly, and hurried out of the morning market.
Li Tannian looked at his figure and thought of the half piece of white-faced steamed bun. He really didn't know whether this was Lu Zhier's blessing or Bai Fuzi's misfortune.
That day, in the evening, after Li Tannian returned home, he talked about this matter with Lu Zhi.
After Lu Zhi heard this, he twitched the corners of his mouth, but there was no unnecessary expression.
"Do you really think he has no agenda? He's just cooking for the sake of raw rice. Now he's offering someone as a sacrifice, just so that in the future, if he succeeds, he can bring Lu Zhi'er back to force him to have a kiss."
When Li Tannian thought about it, it was indeed possible.
When she looked at Lu Zhi again, she raised her eyebrows and asked him curiously: "Are you serious about not telling your mother about this?"
In this era, a woman's innocence is more important than anything else. Regardless of whether Mrs. Bai is seeking Lu Zhier's body or not, her innocence will be ruined after this incident.
Lu Zhi only has one younger sister, and she is always curious about whether he will be soft-hearted.
However, Lu Zhi was very confused about her question.
Why did he want to ask about this? Then whether Lu Zhier lives or dies has nothing to do with him.
But looking at her eyes filled with autumn water, it was impossible to say such heartless words.
Most women in this world are kind, just like her! If she wasn't kind, she wouldn't have bothered with him and the four little ones.
Perhaps he didn't want to scare her, or perhaps he wanted to leave a good impression in her mind and successfully coaxed her to stay. He decided to hide those dark and shady thoughts from now on.
So, he changed the topic and said with a considerate look on his face: "Qinghe County is too big. Even if I say it, it will only cause trouble to my mother and will not help."
Li Tannian looked at Lu Zhi and always felt that something was wrong!
In the following days, Li Tannian still traveled between the county and the town every day, but the grape business was getting worse day by day.
She can also understand this.
After all, grapes are rare and expensive. Most people just buy them to taste them, but they are not rich enough to eat them every day.
But seeing that the grapes in her space were about to ripen in large quantities, she was afraid that if she couldn't sell them anymore, the items would break, so she immediately lowered the price to ten copper coins each.
In a corner, the Deng brothers, who had seen everything, looked at each other and walked away.
