"Buy it for me!"
"Why?"
Looking at Li Shentong standing in front of the white cake stall, asking for money from him, Xiao Han frowned more and more, not because he was reluctant to spend money, but why should he be allowed to spend money?
"I told my brother..." Li Shentong glanced at Xiao Han and snorted coldly.
Xiao Han rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Oh, you really think I'm afraid of that totto... Xiaodong, pay for it!"
Say the cruelest words and do the most cowardly things! This sudden change almost stunned everyone present... Hey, not everyone has this shameless spirit...
The old man selling cakes didn't recognize Xiao Han. When he saw someone paying for it, he took it with a smile and put it into his wallet.
When the copper coins jingled in the bag, he picked up the knife, dipped it in water, cut a square piece of white cake, held it on a lotus leaf, and gave it to Li Shentong.
"It's better here! Everyone has some spare money. It seems that we can make some better sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and sell them here tomorrow."
He wiped the knife with a cloth and then quietly weighed the coins in his pocket. Looking at Li Shentong eating the white cake, the old man's smile became even brighter.
Selling cakes here for one day can make more than farming and working for three to five days! This makes the old man who has been making pastries all his life even more satisfied with this place.
The old man's skill in making pastries was passed down from his ancestors, but he has been making pastries all his life, and his life is still tepid. He is extremely hungry and cannot survive. It is only now that he has come to this market that he has made some money. money.
Of course, before that, it wasn't that the old man was being lazy. In fact, in this kind of country market, the most difficult thing to sell was pastries.
The poor cannot afford it!
Normally people would eat it without giving up!
As for the rich, they don’t care about eating!
In addition, there are no preservatives and no refrigerators at this time. If you work hard to make the pastries, if you can't sell them in two or three days, you will lose it!
It is not easy for the old man to find a place like Xiaojiazhuangzi where everyone can afford pastries.
There is an old saying that goes well, if the people are rich, the country will be strong!
It is a pity that the Tang Dynasty today is far from being able to feed the people of the world, let alone having spare money in their pockets to buy snacks at will.
For example, the Xiao Family Village in front of us has become so unique because of Xiao Han's existence. It is the only one in the world.
"Xiao Han, your market here seems to be much more lively than other places." After finishing the white cake, Li Shentong wiped his mouth and began to stare at the vendors selling goods on both sides curiously.
"Hmph!" Xiao Han snorted and ignored this little thief who was free of charge!
I didn't even give myself a bite of the cake I bought with my own money. I watched him eat it alone without fear of diarrhea!
Li Shentong naturally didn't care about Xiao Han's attitude, not to mention that now that he had something to hold on to, he became even more arrogant. Along the way, he would buy whatever good things he saw, because someone would pay the bill anyway!
As for that man's face getting darker and darker? Never mind my business!
After chattering all the way, Li Shentong soon found a stall surrounded by a group of girls on the roadside. Out of curiosity, he hurried over.
"Huh? There are people selling jewelry here? There are quite a few people buying it! Are all the farmers here rich enough to afford jewelry?"
He shouted loudly and shouted behind him, which attracted the angry looks of several aunts. However, when they saw that the person who made the noise was a cute-looking child, their eyes softened again.
"Is this little guy here to take advantage?"
The aunt's expression softened, but Xiao Han's face darkened, especially when she saw this boy trying so hard to get into the crowd of older girls and younger wives, she just hated that he couldn't catch him and drag him back alive!
However, when Xiao Han looked at Li Shentong bitterly, he didn't realize that his eyes seemed to be looking at another place...
"You bastard! Where are you looking?" A woman with good intentions followed Xiao Han's gaze and didn't see Li Shentong who was squeezing in. She only saw a field of birds and birds, so she became angry and opened her mouth. Just a loud shout.
"Hit...huh? Lord Marquis, it's you..." The woman's cry immediately attracted the attention of countless people, including the banker who recognized Xiao Han, and his eyes almost popped out of his head at this moment.
Xiao Han was sweating all over his body, hiding his face and running wildly: "I am not the Marquis..."
Behind, several women stamped their feet anxiously: "Hey, Mr. Marquis, don't run away! Are you interested in our Xiaocui? Just tell me, if not, I will send her to your house tomorrow."
"Hahaha……"
The little bastard Li Shentong made fun of me again! Just when Xiao Han was gearing up and preparing to loosen his muscles again, the little guy who had learned well this time immediately swallowed the rest of his words, looking around and speaking to him.
"What does this gentleman do to write red paper? Oh, to write couplets? Can this also be sold?"
"Selling knives here? Tsk tsk, it looks like the quality of this knife is at least ten refined."
Because of the crazy run just now, the next round of the market was completed in less than a cup of tea. When he saw that there were no more stalls in front of him, Xiao Han finally let out a sigh of relief.
"That's enough! Go home quickly. Are you planning to stay for dinner?"
Throwing the pile of things in the idiot's hands into Li Shentong's arms, Xiao Han almost mistook the small oil bottle as a football and kicked it out.
"Don't, I'm still looking for something to do with you!"
However, when Li Shentong saw that Xiao Han was about to see off the guests, he immediately stopped and didn't bother to pick up the newly bought things. He came up and hugged Xiao Han's arm.
"Let go!" Xiao Han wanted to break free, but was afraid of hurting the kid again, so he had no choice but to say: "Something happened? If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have anything to say, let it go!"
"I want to go to the grassland!"
"What?"
"I said I wanted to go to the grassland."
After plucking his ears, Xiao Han thought he heard wrongly. It wasn't until Li Shentong repeated it again that he was sure: he heard right, but the kid in front of him had a wrong head.
"Why are you going to the grassland? There is a white disaster there right now. I heard that people are freezing to death one after another, and they are all young men like you."
After casually scaring Li Shentong, Xiao Han felt that he really couldn't understand the thoughts of this rich second generation. Is it inappropriate for a good young master from a rich family to run away to the grassland? Want to be a cowherd?
Li Shentong hung on Xiao Han like an octopus, pouting, looking unconvinced: "Nonsense, my brother told me, the first to die there are the old people! When the weather is cold, they are always Put the old people and women outside, and people like me are always in the middle with the young and strong."
"Hey, you know quite a lot?"
Xiao Han was not embarrassed when his lie was exposed instantly. He touched Li Shentong's head a few times and said, "Then why are you going to the grassland? There must be a reason, right?"
"Me, me!!" Li Shentong shook his head angrily, avoided Xiao Han's hand, and glared: "I just want to kill a few Turks, can't I?"
"Okay, why not?" Xiao Han laughed: "But you go to your brother about this, I don't care about fighting."
"I, if I could find him, wouldn't I stop looking for you?" After hearing Xiao Han talk about Li Jing, Li Shentong, who was still angry just now, immediately became as cold as an eggplant beaten by frost.
