Chapter 117 Going to the Market



Looking at this woman, Buling narrowed her eyes imperceptibly. That voice... it sounded so familiar, exactly the same as the one who sold her eggs on the black market.

"Yes, eldest sister."

"One costs 12 cents, two costs 24 cents. Are you going to pay separately or together?"

"Each pays their own way."

Before Buling could take out his money, Sangshen handed the money to the old woman over Buling's head: "Twenty feet of homespun cloth, a bamboo basket, that's six yuan and twelve cents in total."

"Yes, yes." The girl's eyes lit up when she saw the money.

Tetsuya also paid Wu Yuanyuan's share.

The girl's eyes crinkled with laughter: "This must be your boyfriend, you two are such a perfect match."

Her mother chimed in, praising, "That's right, that's right, the young man is so considerate."

"Then give me ten pounds of each." Bu Ling made a generous offer.

Wu Yuanyuan looked at her in surprise: "You bought so much?"

"It won't spoil, just eat it slowly."

"The girl is right. Once this stuff is dried, it can last for a year or two without any problem," the uncle said as he deftly began weighing it.

Wu Yuanyuan was persuaded, but she still didn't have Bu Ling's boldness, and only bought three jin (1.5 kg) each. Even so, the uncle was overjoyed.

Finally, the baskets behind the two men contained more wood ear mushrooms and mushrooms.

None of the four carried any burdens; they were simply wandering around aimlessly, stopping and starting as they pleased.

"careful!"

"Grab him!"
