Chapter 72 Selling Grapes in the City



Because they were pressed for time today, they made ten barrels of wine. After everyone fell asleep, Li Wenjing put all the wine into the space.

The speed of space was fast, and she thought about getting some sleep so that she could taste the wine tomorrow.

She tried hard to recall in her mind the steps of Xia Yulan's wine-making process, and brewed some wine using the spiritual spring water and river water in the space, and then shared the brewing experience with Xia Yulan.

A few days later, Li Wenjing wanted to go to the city, so she got up early in the morning.

Li Shuhua went with her. Li Yuanshan was going to the army and needed to buy some cloth to make two new sets of clothes.

The old clothes have become pale due to washing, and some of them have patches on them.

Xia Yulan gave all the tickets in the house to Li Wenjing and asked her to keep them.

Li Shuhua, who was holding out his hand nearby, touched his hair awkwardly.

He thought his wife would give him the money, but unexpectedly she gave it all to her daughter.

"Jingjing, I exchanged some cloth coupons with others. You can buy yourself some cloth and I will make you two sets of clothes."

Xia Yulan originally wanted to make only two sets of clothes for Li Yuanshan, but she thought about how they hadn't given their daughter anything since she came back.

Although they gave their daughter a box of jewelry including gold bars, that was given by her mother-in-law, not them.

After their daughter came to their home, she was busy with this today and that tomorrow. They could not just enjoy the child's efforts without giving anything to their daughter.

The more Xia Yulan thought about it, the more guilty she felt.

Li Wenjing took all the money and put it in his pocket.

It's not like he didn't see Li Shuhua's subconscious action just now, but he pretended not to see it.

Li Shuhua: You are really my good daughter!

"I understand. I'm here with my daughter, so don't worry! After we leave, you can send some of the dried chicken and rabbit to my father-in-law's house."

The father and daughter didn't have a bicycle, and today there was no ox cart, so they had to walk to the town.

Fortunately, Li Wenjing has been practicing, so this distance is nothing to her.

Li Shuhua used to be a soldier. Although he was an accountant, he still had to go to the fields during the busy farming season, so he walked fast.

Li Wenjing didn't expect that her father had put two barrels of wine in the backpack, saying he wanted to try his luck.

The wine brewed by his wife is so delicious that it cannot be wasted. If it can be sold, it will also be an income for their family.

At this time, Li Wenjing had to admire her father's intelligence. In fact, she thought so too, otherwise she would not have brewed so much wine.

She put all the wine and money in her space. There was no place safer than her space. As for the wine, she would look for an opportunity to take it out when she got to the city.

But today her father was with her, so she couldn't go to see the old man in the scrap yard, nor could she go to ship goods with Qiu Guangming again. She still felt a little regretful, seeing a lot of small amounts of money leaving her.

When he got on the bus to the town, Li Shuhua met an acquaintance.

Li Wenjing sat in her seat, squinting her eyes in meditation, while Li Shuhua chatted with acquaintances along the way.

When they arrived in the city, Li Shuhua had never sold anything before. He was at a loss and looked at his daughter beside him blankly.

Li Wenjing knew where the black market was, but she couldn't take her father there.

"Dad, let's move forward!"

"good!"

The father and daughter walked along the street. It was still early, and the direction they walked this time was exactly the opposite of the direction Li Wenjing walked every time she came to the city.

The careful Li Wenjing soon discovered that many pedestrians on the street were wearing the same work clothes, which meant that there must be a state-owned factory nearby.

At this time, Li Shuhua also remembered that the city’s steel plant was nearby, so the two continued to walk forward.

It must be said that the father and daughter were extremely lucky. After walking for a while, they arrived at the steel plant’s staff quarters.

Li Shuhua and Li Wenjing found an empty corner and took out some grapes and two barrels of wine.

Fortunately, they carried two backpacks this time, and Li Wenjing found some unused waste paper in the space to wrap the grapes, for fear of bumps.

Li Wenjing felt that people were more likely to accept grapes than wine. Since her father wanted to experience the joy of selling things, she, as his daughter, would definitely satisfy him.

Lin Yufeng is the director of the publicity department of the steel plant. Her biggest hobby is eating. Today, she happened to be on shift break, so she thought of going out to buy some delicious food for the children to improve their meals.

Children need more nutrition when they are young, and their parents need even more nutrition when they are older. She is greedy and also wants to eat something delicious.

Everyone in their family has work and is usually busy, so they don’t cook at home and eat in the cafeteria.

I just came back from buying groceries today and saw Li Shuhua and Li Wenjing wandering around nearby.

Lin Yufeng is smart and quick-witted, and she often buys good things from her fellow villagers.

So when she saw Li Shuhua and Li Wenjing, father and daughter, she knew they were there to sell things.

Because these two people were unfamiliar to her, she had never seen them before, and they were carrying a backpack behind them.

So she followed Li Shuhua and Li Wenjing, and when they were in a place where there was no one around, she went up to them and started chatting with them.

"Brother, what did you and your niece bring this time?"

Li Wenjing was fine, after all, she had experience, but Li Shuhua was really scared, but he quickly calmed down.

After all, your dad is your dad. Li Wenjing has no choice but to admire him.

"Oh, it's you, big sister. I brought some fresh grapes this time. Do you want some?"

Li Wenjing: If she hadn't been following her father all the time, I would have thought that these two people knew each other, just look at the familiar tone.

When Lin Yufeng heard the word "grape", her eyes lit up. How could she let go of such delicious food being delivered to her door?

"Brother, yes, of course I won't. My mother's family is in the family compound up ahead. Come with me and say you're my cousin's brother, and you're here to visit my parents!"

Li Shuhua and Li Wenjing looked at each other and agreed. They followed Lin Yufeng to her parents' home.

After entering the door, Lin Yufeng couldn't wait to say: "Brother, where are the grapes? Hurry up and take them out for me to see!"

Her eyes never left the backpack. Li Wenjing even wondered if Li Shuhua would reach into the backpack herself to take the things out if he was slow.

Li Wenjing put down the basket on her back and took out a few bunches of grapes from it. The green grapes were plump and fresh.

As soon as Lin Yufeng saw the grapes that Li Wenjing took out, she couldn't take her eyes off them.

She sighed in her heart, "Oh my god, these grapes are so fresh. Each one is crystal clear and exudes a lingering fruity aroma. She could hardly resist and wanted to take one and put it in her mouth."

Li Wenjing: How can it be bad if it’s produced by Space?

"Brother, how many grapes do you have? I want them all."
