When Xiao Qingluo saw Xiao Ruolian leaving, he took Menglan out of the Xiao family and went out to buy groceries.
At the same time, she also needs to buy more ginger.
Ginger can dispel cold, so it is best to always have some on hand in winter.
Xiao Qingluo just wanted to buy some more ginger so that he could make some ginger soup for her and Menglan in the evening.
After all, Xiao Ruolian must have left the germs in the house when she came this time.
Even if you open the windows for half an hour to ventilate the house, it is impossible to completely eliminate the germs in the house.
Although Xiao Qingluo doesn't care about these germs, prevention is worse than cure.
If you can prevent the disease from happening in advance, why wait until it breaks out before seeking treatment?
With this thought in mind, Xiao Qingluo took the opportunity to buy some more ginger while going out to buy groceries.
Menglan was holding a large bag of ginger. As she listened to Xiao Qingluo's explanation, she nodded as if suddenly understanding something and said, "So that's how it is!"
"Tanghulu! Sweet and big Tanghulu! Three cents a string!"
Hearing the hawking sounds on the street, Menglan's eyes lit up and her gaze almost glued to the straw pole full of candied haws in the candied haws seller's hand.
Xiao Qingluo saw Menglan's greedy look and quickly walked to the candied haws seller and said, "Give me two strings."
After giving six coins, Xiao Qingluo had two more strings of candied haws in his hand.
Menglan looked at it eagerly, thinking: "Miss is so extravagant, she actually bought two candied haws to eat. This is too happy!"
Xiao Qingluo brought Menglan to the street and squatted down, saying, "Put the vegetable basket on the ground."
Menglan did as she was told.
Then she watched Xiao Qingluo hand her a string of candied haws.
Menglan blushed immediately: "Miss, this... is for me?"
Xiao Qingluo couldn't help laughing and said, "Your eyes are almost glued to those candied haws. I am still
How could I not know that you want to eat?"
Menglan grinned: "Miss, you are so nice to me!"
Xiao Qingluo took a bite of the candied haws and said with a smile, "You're the only one with a sweet mouth. Come on and eat it."
The two of them just squatted on the street, eating candied haws bite by bite!
On the street in winter, two girls squatted on the street, eating candied haws in big mouthfuls.
They looked at each other from time to time and smiled sweetly and happily.
Neither of them felt cold, but instead felt a different kind of mood.
After finishing the candied haws, Xiao Qingluo stood up.
But I found that she and Menglan somehow walked to the vicinity of Sui'an Hall.
At this time, two herbal farmers were kneeling at the door of Sui'an Hall, kowtowing on the ground continuously, with two baskets of herbs scattered on the ground beside them.
These two herbal farmers were the ones who sold artificially grown Ganoderma lucidum that day!
The herbalist, Old Xu, kowtowed and said, "Shopkeeper Su! Please forgive us! Now all the shops on this street won't take our herbs, and we have a family to support. Please have pity on us and accept these herbs!"
Old Yang, the herbalist, was so upset that he kept apologizing, "Shopkeeper Su, we were blinded by greed last time and did something stupid. We will sell our herbs to you at a lower price in the future, even if you can lower the price by 10% or 20%. Otherwise, we don't have any other skills besides collecting herbs. Now all the herbal medicine shops in Yanzhou City won't accept our herbs. We and our family will have no choice but to eat up all our savings and wait to starve to death!"
Sui'an Hall's shopkeeper, Su, looked at the two men coldly, his expression impatient: "Get lost! I told you to get lost! When you dared to deceive Sui'an Hall with inferior medicine, you should have thought that this day would come. You brought this upon yourselves. Whether your family lives or dies is none of my business!"
Old Xu and Old
Yang immediately knocked harder and kept apologizing!
Shopkeeper Su didn't even look at them and was about to leave when he sent his servants to chase the two men away.
When he turned around, he saw Xiao Qingluo dressed the same as before!
Shopkeeper Su's face instantly filled with smiles, and he said, "Miss! Miss! Isn't this a coincidence? I actually see you again!"
Shopkeeper Su ran across the street, came in front of Xiao Qingluo, clasped his hands together, and bowed to Xiao Qingluo!
Xiao Qingluo smiled softly and said, "Boss Su, how are you?"
Shopkeeper Su was confused and subconsciously asked, "Boss? What kind of title is that?"
Xiao Qingluo bared his teeth and said awkwardly, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Su. This is just a respectful title used by people from a small place to address some important figures."
Shopkeeper Su immediately laughed: "Oh my, Miss, you are embarrassing me. I am not a big shot at all, hahahaha."
Although he said this, Shopkeeper Su still smiled with great enjoyment.
Xiao Qingluo asked with a smile, "What does Shopkeeper Su want to see me about?"
Shopkeeper Su waved his hands repeatedly, a shrewd look flashing in his eyes. He said, "It's okay, it's okay. I just saw you, young lady, and came over to say hello. I also wanted to ask, young lady, do you have any aged medicinal herbs for sale recently?"
Xiao Qingluo frowned, hidden under her gauze scarf and hat.
This shopkeeper Su is also a smart guy!
This is obviously a cliché!
First, say hello and show your goodwill to let her down her guard.
Then, as if chatting, he asked her out of the blue if she had any good medicine to sell like the Ganoderma lucidum he had seen two days ago.
I just want her to subconsciously say yes or no.
If she said yes.
Then Shopkeeper Su will know that she has the channels to get the
A good medicine like Ganoderma lucidum!
If she said no cautiously.
Shopkeeper Su could still guess that she had channels but didn't want to attract attention!
This shopkeeper Su is indeed quite cunning!
Xiao Qingluo almost instantly realized the trap set by the old fox, Shopkeeper Su. She smiled flawlessly and said, "Shopkeeper Su, what are you talking about? Do you think that kind of good medicine is something beggars on the street can find everywhere?"
