Chapter 967: A Dream (48)
Su Runrun and the others had picked the strawberries, and breakfast was ready over there.
After a quick breakfast, Su Runrun and others set off.
Xiao Chengjin also wanted to go to school, so he just walked with them, and they didn't part until they reached the intersection of Daling Village.
Besides Su Ruanruan, the other people who went to the county town to sell strawberries were Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen.
There were only two baskets of strawberries, but Su Ruanruan, who didn't walk very fast, was following them, so Su Cangshan still pushed the cart.
On the way, Su Cangshan and Xiao Yougen took turns pushing the cart, and the speed was not slow at all.
When they arrived at the county town, it was the same as when Su Ruanruan first came to the county town, but it was only around nine o'clock in the morning.
The county town was the busiest at this time. They came to the street where things were sold again, took Su Ruanruan down from the cart, and lifted the cloth on the two baskets to reveal the strawberries underneath.
The strawberries had just been picked two hours ago. Each one was bright red and juicy. As soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of passers-by.
Such red fruits are most likely to attract the attention of children and women. Standing in the front of the cart at this time is a woman with a child.
The child looked about the same age as Su Ruanruan. His eyes were fixed on the strawberries and his saliva was about to flow.
The woman looked at the strawberry and asked in confusion, "What kind of fruit is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
Su Cangshan rubbed his hands and said, "This is strawberry."
"What is a strawberry?" The woman was even more confused. Why had she never heard of it before? Su Cangshan was also at a loss for words. How could he know what a strawberry was? He could only go to see Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan couldn't explain it clearly, but she had another way.
Su Ruanruan opened the bamboo tube that contained the strawberry, picked up a strawberry, rinsed it, and handed it to Su Cangshan, "Dad, where is our knife? Cut off some for Auntie to taste."
The woman saw Su Ruanruan washing the strawberries with water, and guessed that Su Ruanruan wanted her to taste them. She was waiting to take the strawberries when she heard Su Ruanruan's words. Her brows slightly frowned, "Why? You only give me a little cut for a taste? What a precious thing! I don't want it!"
After saying this, the woman turned around and was about to leave, but she didn't.
The little kid next to her was still looking at Su Cangshan eagerly.
Su Cangshan was also unhappy, "Since you don't want to buy it, there's no need to taste it."
They themselves were reluctant to eat the food, but this person said it lightly, just take one and try it.
How much is there in this basket?
If everyone who comes to buy asks to try one, how much will be eaten?
When the child heard Su Cangshan's words, he burst into tears, "Mom, I want to eat! I want to eat!"
Although he didn't know what it was, he could smell the fruity aroma when he stood close to it, and the color was so beautiful, so the child knew it must be delicious. If he was not allowed to eat it, he would naturally not want to eat it.
The woman was angry and embarrassed, but looking at the child crying with his mouth open, she finally held back and said, "Then cut a little and let you taste it. If it tastes good, I'll buy some."
Su Cangshan then frowned and cut off two thin slices. Without taking them down, he left them on the knife and handed them to the woman.
The woman was satisfied, but she didn't want to eat something that someone else had taken, especially something that had been cut.
The woman took both pieces of strawberry, gave the larger one to the child, and put the smaller one into his mouth.
