Chapter 605: An unexpected gain at the market

Go to the market.

The word is familiar yet distant.

"We were originally going to do something else, but since there's a market, we'll go and have some fun."

"Mom, give me a hundred dollars. I'm too lazy to go home and get it. I'll return it to you when I get back."

Chen Hui said with interest.

"Are you going to buy the whole market? You should be more frugal with your money."

Lin Jiao said this, and went back to the store, counted out a hundred yuan and gave it to Chen Hui.

"Got it, we'll be back for lunch later!"

"Little brat, hold on tight, let's go!"

Chen Hui put the money in his pocket and rode away on his bike.

You can go out and play, and you can also go shopping.

An Wenjing was so happy that she was humming a song all the way.

When the two arrived at Xishan Town, the streets were already filled with various small stalls.

Villagers would sell everything in their homes that could be exchanged for money.

Fresh vegetables, pickled or dried vegetables, and various herbs from the mountains.

Some people brought some lambs.

Looking around, he occasionally called out, "Sheep for sale! Our own lambs for sale."

The people next to him were obviously buying chickens and ducks.

Chicken and duck cages were scattered all over the floor, and two ducks were caught and tied to the handles of the cages.

"Brother-in-law, there are so many people over there! Are they selling candy?" An Wenyi asked, pointing at his hand.

Chen Hui followed her gaze.

The stalls in front were crowded with people, all discussing something animatedly.

"Come on, let's go take a look."

There are many people going to the market.

For safety reasons, Chen Hui lifted An Wenyi up and put him back on the front bar of the bicycle.

Push the cart over to join in the fun.

It turned out to be a stall selling wild boar meat, and it was said that the wild boar was just hunted yesterday.

Although wild boar meat has a smell, it is cheaper than domestic pork and is still very popular in the market.

"Ha, it's not candy," An Wenyi was a little disappointed.

Chen Hui was not interested in this and just pushed the cart forward a few steps.

Right next to the pork stall, an old man was sitting alone.

The basket was turned upside down and used as a tabletop, and the things on it caught Chen Hui's attention.

Isn't this a morel?
Xishan Town started the mushroom business in the 1990s.

I never knew that this actually grew on the mountain in their town.

"Young man, would you like some?" asked the old man.

"Uncle, what is this?" Chen Hui asked knowingly.

"This is the dried mushroom of the chicken shit mushroom!"

“Although it has an unpleasant name, it tastes delicious, and it tastes even better after being dried!”

Morels must be cooked with pork so that they absorb the aroma of the broth and become delicious.

At this time, the villagers could only eat meat a few times a year.

They don’t understand how to eat it this way, so few people will buy it.

After waiting for a whole morning, someone finally came to ask, and the old man immediately began to introduce enthusiastically.

Fearing that Chen Hui would not want it, he continued, "This stuff is really good! If you want all of it, I'll give you an extra handful of dried chicken mushrooms."

"It looks like you have more than half a pound here. How much would it cost if I bought all of them?" Chen Hui asked.

The old man stretched out his palm with five fingers open.

"So expensive?!" Chen Hui blurted out!
“Five dollars is still expensive!?”

"Every time I go to work in the mountains, I go over to take a look. It took me two months to find this many!"

"How is this expensive!?"

The old man was also very excited when he thought about his hard work over the past two months.

"Huh? Oh, five dollars! I thought it was fifty dollars."

"Then give them all to me! No need to give away the chicken mushrooms. It's not easy for the elderly to earn money." Chen Hui said with a smile.

"Hey! How dare I sell it for fifty yuan!" The old man knew it was a misunderstanding and started laughing too.

Happily found a crumpled bag.

Shake it out and put all the morels in.

As agreed, he grabbed a handful of chicken mushrooms and put them in, tied the bag and handed it to Chen Hui.

"Brother-in-law, why are you buying this?" An Wenyi asked in confusion.

"Of course I ate it!"

"This is delicious when cooked well! I'll cook it for you next time." Chen Hui said.

An Wenyi shook his head silently in refusal.

Seeing someone selling peaches in front of him, he patted Chen Hui's arm and shouted happily: "Brother-in-law! I want to eat peaches!"

"Okay, let's go and try it. If it tastes good, buy a bag and take it back."

Chen Hui said this as he pushed the cart past the crowd.

The woman selling peaches was a middle-aged woman, with two large baskets of peaches, one larger and one smaller.

"Young man, would you like to buy some peaches? They are very sweet!" the woman greeted warmly.

"Can I try one of each?" Chen Hui asked.

The middle-aged woman saw that Chen Hui wanted to have sex for free and wanted two more.

He immediately frowned, waved his hands and said, "I haven't tasted it yet. I've never tasted it before. Forget it if you don't want to buy it."

"I don't even dare let anyone taste it, it must not be sweet!" said An Wenyi.

The middle-aged woman didn't fall for the kid's provocation. "What if you eat mine and don't buy it?"

There were a few people buying peaches nearby.

Seeing this situation, he helped the middle-aged woman and said:

"Although the peaches are not big, they are really sweet. I have bought them twice!"

"It's delicious, I'm not lying to you!"

"Look, I bought such a big bag! It's delicious."

After they finished talking, they took the peaches and left.

The middle-aged woman selling peaches saw that Chen Hui did not leave and seemed to want to buy from him.

Once again, he said, "My peaches are really delicious. If you buy one and it's not sweet, bring it back and I'll give you a refund."

"Okay, then let's take five kilograms of each," said Chen Hui.

Hearing this number, the woman's face was filled with a warm smile.

He quickly took out a small one and rubbed it on the clothes again and again.

He handed it to Chen Hui and said, "I'll pack it for you right away! Try one first, it's really sweet, I'm not kidding!"

Chen Hui was not polite either.

He took it and rubbed it on his clothes.

After taking a bite, he blurted out, "So sweet!"

"Really?! This is the last batch, there's no more?"

"I have dozens of peach trees at home and have been selling peaches for many years. We keep the ones that don't grow well for ourselves."

The woman said proudly.

Put peaches in the bag for Chen Hui.

A dozen peach trees? ! !
"Auntie, how come you have dozens of peach trees at home? Do you grow peaches specifically to sell?"

Chen Hui asked in surprise.

The middle-aged woman laughed and a smug look appeared on her face.

Just as she was about to tell Chen Hui something, she heard someone shout, "Hey! Auntie, are you here to sell peaches again today?"

The person who was speaking came over carrying a bag of things.

Seeing Chen Hui and An Wenyi, he asked in surprise:

"Chen Hui! Why are you here today? Did you come here specially for the market?"

"This is yours. It's so cute!"

Jiang Xiaohua looked at An Wenyi and couldn't help but reach out and touch her, then took out a candy from her pocket.

Seeing that Chen Hui had no objection, An Wenyi took the candy with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, my wife's sister."

"Going to the market is just a side trip. I came here specifically to see you today!"

"Is this your aunt?"
