When Ye Jiaying returned to her original place with the washed peaches, a small group of people gathered in front of the basket.
Ye Jiaying ran a few steps and cut the washed peach three times vertically with a knife, and then cut it once horizontally. Then she twisted it gently and it broke into small pieces.
"Try our peaches, they are guaranteed to be sweet, delicious and juicy."
Ye Jiaying handed the peach in her hand to the person who was still hesitating.
Everyone was curious about being able to try it for free, and they were also curious whether this peach with such a strong fragrance was really that delicious.
When everyone took a bite of the peach, their eyes lit up.
The peaches tasted better than any they had eaten before, no wonder they were more expensive. Now some curious onlookers were also tempted.
If I miss this opportunity, I don’t know if I can ever eat peaches that taste this good again.
People in the 1980s were not as poor as in the 1960s and 1970s. People had a strong curiosity about new things they had never tried, so after tasting the peaches, they rushed to buy them.
"I want two."
This is for someone who wants to try something alone.
"Give me six."
This family has a simple population.
"Fill these two bags for me so I can give some to my relatives."
This is because there are many relatives and friends.
Ye Jiaying had only cut one peach when she was caught in a crowd of people counting peaches and collecting money.
Seeing how lively it was, other people gathered around and asked what it was for, and then they were introduced to it by those who had come before.
There was an aunt who bought two large bags of peaches. She was very enthusiastic about sharing the taste of the peaches with the people who stopped to watch. Seeing that the three girls were too busy, she took the initiative to help.
The peaches were sold out in a short while.
There were only a dozen or so peaches left at the bottom of the basket, their skins scratched and not looking good. These definitely could not be bought anymore.
The sun at the end of July was very scorching. The three of them were busy and sweating, their faces flushed with heat.
After Ye Jiaying packed up her things, she looked up and saw Gu Qinglin sitting in a military green jeep. She didn't know how long it had been parked there.
The girl, with her face as rosy as a peach and sweating profusely, forms a sharp contrast with the man, who is refreshed and has a cold and pale complexion.
"Our peaches are delicious. You might want to eat more after eating them."
Ye Jiaying rubbed the peach hairs on her hands, walked to the side of the road and smiled at Gu Qinglin.
Gu Qinglin's pale lips seemed to be a little redder than at first, perhaps because he had eaten the peach.
"It's delicious." Gu Qinglin nodded, then looked at the empty basket with some regret.
Unfortunately, it’s gone.
Ye Jiaying followed his gaze and glanced at the basket.
Ye Jialan was putting the peach branches and leaves that had been covered at the beginning into the basket, with the peaches she had washed hanging on the edge.
"Wait for me."
She just took a few peaches to wash, and the hospital gave him one. Later, she gave one to everyone to try, and now there are three left.
She casually hung it on the back of the basket.
Ye Jiaying took the peach to the car window and handed it inside.
"I just washed it and gave it to you to eat."
Gu Qinglin picked up the call for some unknown reason.
When he came to his senses and Ye Jiaying turned around to leave, he quickly called her.
"I'll buy your peaches."
Ye Jiaying stopped, tilted her head to look at him, and smiled slyly.
"Then you need to buy a few baskets."
"One, uh, two baskets."
Gu Qinglin originally just didn't want to take the peaches for free, but the little girl's face was as red as a peach, and her bright smile dazzled his eyes.
He parked his car here to buy some food to take back for his grandparents, but before he could ask the security guard to buy it, the stall had already closed.
Now when she asked him how many baskets to buy, his thoughts raced. The peaches were delicious and the girl was generous, so he could just buy two baskets to share with relatives and friends.
"Can you finish two baskets?"
Ye Jiaying's eyes widened in surprise.
She just wanted to tease this beauty, but she didn't expect that the beauty could really buy so much.
"There are many relatives and friends at home, so we can finish the food."
Seeing her red lips slightly parted and her eyes wide open in surprise, Gu Qinglin smiled for the first time today.
The beauty's smile was like the melting of snow-capped mountains and the blooming of flowers. The villain in Ye Jiaying's heart screamed wildly.
I give you my life.
"Then leave me your address and I'll deliver it to you."
"Huaguo Academy of Sciences, Gu Qinglin."
The world she traveled into in the book was very similar to her original world. Although the main plot was a happy story about a struggling heroine, the major events mentioned in it were all based on real history.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences is the highest academic institution in China, and everyone working there has made significant contributions to the country.
Although they are very low-key, they appear in major historical processes of China in textbooks.
The first big shot she met was from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. I wonder if she will meet more big shots from textbooks when she goes there.
"Okay, I'll send it to you tomorrow morning."
"Xiaoying."
Gu Qinglin was about to say something when he was interrupted by Ye Jiamin who was packing up her things in the distance.
"I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow."
Ye Jiaying said goodbye to Gu Qinglin, and the three of them carried their backpacks and walked towards the market.
Gu Qinglin lowered his eyelids and stared at the three pink and sweet peaches in his hand, stunned for a while.
The security guard in the military green shirt was called Ye Mingqiang. He was a man of few words. Seeing that Gu Qinglin hadn't moved for a long time, he didn't get anxious. He just watched silently as the three young girls carrying bamboo baskets disappeared around the corner.
"Mingqiang, go back to grandpa."
Ye Mingqiang responded, started the car and drove away smoothly.
......
Ye Jiaying and the other two came out early. Although three baskets of peaches seemed like a lot, they were actually sold out in less than an hour.
So it’s actually not even eight o’clock now.
