Chapter 37 Market Sales
After returning home, Aunt Liu bought a few new dustpans, packed the preserved fruits in different categories, and got ready to go to the market to sell them.

Early the next morning, Daddy Liu assigned tasks in the yard.

"Liu Er took Xiao Liu at home. Liu Yi, Liu Si and Liu Wu hurried to school after breakfast. Your mother and I took Qi Qi to the market to sell preserved fruits. Success or failure depends on each other. Everyone arranges their own affairs!"

"Yes!" The children answered in unison.

Aunt Liu held Liu Qiqi in her arms, and swayed towards the town on the scooter, Qiqi's small round eyes stared at the outside world non-stop.

When approaching the market, her little mouth pouted. There are still many new and interesting things in this world that she has never seen before.

Daddy Liu looked back at the two mothers, his eyes were full of happiness.

When we arrived at the market, Daddy Liu took advantage of the gaps and took up a corner near the intersection. This location was crowded with traffic from south to north.

But after a while, the husband and wife felt that something was wrong. The pickled vegetables next door opened frequently, and several catties were sold in ten minutes. But there were people who saw it here, but almost no one bought it.

"Why don't you shout out?" Aunt Liu hugged Liu Qiqi and gave Dad Liu some advice.

Uncle Liu was a dull man, and when Aunt Liu mentioned asking him to peddle, her face turned red all of a sudden, she couldn't control her hands and feet, and after a long time, she choked out, "Why don't you yell?"

Aunt Liu rolled her eyes angrily on the spot, if she has this ability, why do I need you as an old man?
Daddy Liu was still not reconciled, and wanted Aunt Liu to sell it. He saw Aunt Liu using her hand as a fan to shade Liu Qiqi under the scorching sun. Comfortable.

Daddy Liu felt very uncomfortable, he would have come here by himself if he knew it earlier, why did he bring the child out to suffer?

His heart broke, and he wanted to go home early for Liu Qiqi, so he started to yell.

"Everyone come and see, the farmhouse makes homemade preserved fruit! It's fresh and delicious, clean and hygienic!" Daddy Liu shouted with his hands on his hips.

Aunt Liu, who was holding the baby beside her, was taken aback, and then smiled.

After yelling, Daddy Liu seemed to be enlightened. He yelled out sales words one after another, and after shouting for a while, he suddenly felt that his whole body was transparent.

"Welcome everyone to try it!"

"We all pick fresh fruits and make them on the spot!"

Aunt Liu also became interested, and yelled a few times while holding Qiqi, making Liu Qiqi in her arms laugh.

The husband and wife looked at each other, and the smiles from the corners of their eyes spread like vines.

But after shouting for a while, people just stopped in front of the scooter, and their footsteps rolled forward like wheels, and no one wanted to buy it.

"Isn't this the fruit I dried myself? I will too." A middle-aged woman muttered, she felt that the couple was stealing money.

The woman beside her also echoed, "Yeah, who said otherwise? There's really not much shopping in the market, why is everything sold? Last time I heard from my man that there are still people selling rotten wood!"

The corner of Daddy Liu's mouth twitched a few times.

Suddenly, the chubby little hand reached out to the preserved fruit, "Mom! I want to eat this, it looks so delicious!"

Daddy Liu was overjoyed, someone finally recognized the goods, he quickly cheered up and greeted him.

"You," he was interrupted by the mother sternly before he could finish his sentence, "eat, eat, eat! You know what to eat. Is there anything else that you don't like? The food your grandma fed the chickens was eaten again yesterday. Did you eat it?!"

The chubby little boy looked innocent and looked at the preserved fruit in front of him pitifully.

Daddy Liu lost all face, and retreated back behind the cart with a dark face.

When the little fat man's mother was teaching him, Aunt Liu handed Qiqi to Dad Liu to hold him, picked up the paper bag pasted in advance, and filled a small bag for the little fat man.

"Here, these are for you, you can take them home and eat slowly." Aunt Liu handed the bag to the child.

The child's mother was very embarrassed, and hurriedly took out the money bag to count the money for Aunt Liu.Aunt Liu refused to accept what she said, and the two of them fought back and forth for a long time.

In the end, the child's mother couldn't resist Aunt Liu's enthusiasm, so she blushed and said, "Why is this so embarrassing? It's all my child's fault, he's so greedy!"

After finishing speaking, the mother glared at her child. The little fat boy had already opened the bag and fed himself a mouthful, and he was tasting it with relish.

Seeing that the child liked it so much, Aunt Liu felt a lot more at ease. She waved her hands again and again, "The child likes to eat these sweet and sour foods. It's okay, just eat more if you like it."

Seeing the backs of the mother and son going away, a white light flashed in Aunt Liu's mind, and she became annoyed, "What am I doing?! I actually forgot the biggest thing, I forgot to sell!"

She looked dejectedly at Daddy Liu who was holding the child, feeling that she was useless.

Daddy Liu felt that it was nothing at all, and comforted his wife, "It's okay, it's okay, you've taken a big step, much better than me."

Just as Aunt Liu was talking to Daddy Liu, a figure came over in front of her, "Eh? Isn't this Old Liu?"

The couple looked up, and Aunt Liu was surprised and delighted, "Aunt Zhang?! What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here!"

Daddy Liu's face was overwhelmed by a cloud of blackness, thinking that it was really embarrassing for his daughter-in-law, and he had learned to act, so why did he meet this annoying ghost.

This Aunt Zhang is a distant relative of Daddy Liu, and she is usually a gossip who likes to tell stories. I heard that she has gone to the north with her husband, so why did she come back here again?

"Yes, what a coincidence! I also went back to my mother's house to see my mother, and I plan to take my mother to my house to enjoy the blessings. It's really not easy to stay in this poor place, it's so boring."

Aunt Zhang was shaking a small fan, and looked at Daddy Liu and his wife who set up the stall with pity, and suddenly felt a sense of superiority.

Everyone around her cast unfriendly glances at her, why is our place so poor?

Aunt Zhang made orchid fingers with her hand, picked up the candied fruit on the cart and looked at it, "You guys made this?"

"Yes, try it."

Aunt Liu was polite and wanted to see off the guests quickly.

Aunt Zhang looked at the preserved fruit suspiciously. In the end, she did not escape the temptation and stuffed it into her mouth. Her eyes widened immediately. She couldn't help but grabbed another handful and ate one after another.

At the same time, she found that the little girl in Daddy Liu's arms had been staring at her curiously, and felt a little strange, "Didn't you give birth to a son again? When did you have a girl?"

"The last child gave birth to twins, luckily not two sons."

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang's face darkened, thinking that Aunt Liu was mocking her for not being able to give birth to a son.

For some reason, this old Liu family gave birth to a series of sons.I have given birth to a bunch of girls!Qi was also pissed off.

Today is even more excessive, deliberately hugging a girl to make me angry.

Aunt Zhang had a sullen face, and hugged the preserved fruit, "You must not be able to sell this, right? Why don't you give it all to me, and I'll be kind enough to help you take it away."

She pretended to feel sorry for Liu Qiqi, and raised her hand to pinch the little girl's cheek, "Look at the poor girl, hurry up and take her home to rest! Children can't bask in such a big sun."
