Chapter 13 Meeting Cao An Again

She put the basket back on her back and almost couldn't get up. It was heavier than she was! She sat on the ground and stood up again. Enduring the pain in her shoulder, she struggled to go to the black market. Fortunately, she was smart and knew that there was a place not far from the black market to store things. Once she got there, she could sell some under the cover of the cloth and put some more in.

It was the same man from yesterday. She walked over, gestured with him, and successfully entered the black market. There were more people during the day than at night, and it was all women whispering and gesturing in the corners. As usual, she walked to the middle, opened the cover of the backpack, walked around, and then walked to a deserted wall, put the backpack down, and slumped to the ground. It was too heavy, her body couldn't bear it.

Just as she sat down for a while, an old lady came over and lifted the cloth on the basket in front of her. "Child, why are your eggs so big?"

"It's a goose egg."

"Oh, no wonder. You must have taken good care of your geese and fed them plenty of food."

Xia Youyou didn't want to say more and just nodded.

"Can it be hatched? How much do you sell it for?"

Xia Youyou really didn't know if it could be hatched, so she lied, "Grandma, I don't know either. My mom didn't say it can be hatched. How about you buy it and try it?"

"Tsk, what if it goes bad after I try it? I can't eat it anymore!"

She saw that he was trying to bargain her down. She understood in her heart that he was indeed cunning and sly!

"Then don't buy it, it's a waste of money. Look at my flour, it's better than the one sold at the supply and marketing cooperative. Would you like to buy some?"

The old lady saw that she was not understanding, her face changed immediately, she snorted with disdain, and turned away.
