Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 100 The cypress that can keep out the cold
Half a quarter of an hour later, Wen Shu took the oil paper planted by the boy and went to a dark alley nearby.

Open the bag on the ground, grab the bright red and round cypress fruits inside, according to the amount she ate yesterday, and grab them into the planted oil paper.

After all this was done, she came to the original alley with her burden on her back.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the smoke from cooking had already risen from several houses.

Wen Shu cleared his throat, glanced at the house where the right hand was still closed and the smoke hadn't risen, and then he yelled clearly: "I'm selling cypresses, I don't feel cold after eating them, and my whole body is warm with cypresses!"

It was lunch time, and most of the people were at home. After she shouted for a while, someone poked her head out curiously and asked, "Little lady, what kind of fruit are you selling? If you eat it, you won't be afraid of the cold. "

The questioner was a woman in her early thirties, with a round face, wearing a thick winter coat, and holding a swarthy rag in her hand.

"It's true." Wen Shu pointed to himself, as if showing his own experience: "Sister-in-law sees that I don't wear much, you can touch my palm again to see if it's warm."

Looking at the white and tender hand stretched out in front of her, the woman stretched it out without much hesitation.

"Ah! It's really hot!" After a while, she exclaimed, "It's hotter than my hand."

"Yes, my sister-in-law is trustworthy." Wen Shu asked with a smile.

The woman raised her head and dismissed her, and then said with disdain: "That's not necessarily true, maybe it's because you get hot from walking, and there are some. And judging by the accent of the little lady, I'm afraid she's not from the local area."

accent?She's speaking official language, okay?

And whether it is a local has anything to do with what she sells. The hawkers in the streets and alleys of Tokyo have different accents, and no one cares about these, as long as the goods are good.

Thinking of this, her face became a little colder, and she said calmly: "It is true that the non-locals, since the sister-in-law doesn't believe it, then forget it, this cypress is not something that can be seen anywhere, whoever can buy it is due to fate. "After that, he turned around and left.

That expression without any hesitation at all made the woman startled.

She struggled for a while, looked at the people walking away in front of her, and finally couldn't help shouting out of curiosity: "Wait a minute, little lady."

Wen Shu stood still, turned around blankly and said, "Is there something wrong?"

The woman shook the rag in embarrassment, "Well... I didn't say I don't believe it, but you have to look at the goods before buying. I haven't seen what the fruit you mentioned looks like."

"A copy of five hundred coins. If my sister-in-law really wants to buy it, I'll show it to you. Otherwise, it's better not to read it."

As soon as the words fell, the neighbors came out to watch the excitement, and found a burst of discussion.

The woman even exclaimed in surprise: "Ah bah! What an incredible fruit, five hundred wen! It's really an elixir! Don't want it!" After speaking, she turned around and went back to the courtyard angrily, and closed the courtyard door with a bang.

Wen Shu didn't take it seriously, and continued to walk forward in an even and steady manner, yelling in his mouth without stopping, but there was no trace of anxiety or regret on his face.

A little lady about her age looked at her figure wearing only a spring shirt, and said to the people around her: "In such a cold day, she is wearing a spring shirt. Isn't it cold?" He rubbed his arms, as if he was cold.

The other party said: "It shouldn't be cold, didn't Mrs. Zhang just touched her hand and said it was hot."

"Then is what she said true? Are the fruits she sells really so good?"

"Who knows, but five hundred coins is really too expensive, and I don't blame Mrs. Zhang for being angry. If it's useless, the money is not for nothing."

"Yes, yes." The people next to him echoed.

There were a lot of people watching and talking about it, but none of them took the initiative to ask.Wen Shu didn't care, she kept sneaking glances at the room on the right, feeling a little doubt in her heart. . .

It shouldn't be!
It stands to reason that she has been yelling for so long, and the little woman must have come out early in the morning when she heard it, but all the neighbors ran out to watch the fun, why didn't she, the target person, come out to have a look.

Could it be that you are not at home and have gone out?

She turned a few turns in her heart, but her face was still calm, and her footsteps were even and steady, as if walking in a leisurely garden.

When passing by that house, she deliberately raised her ears to listen carefully to the movement inside, but she didn't know if she was really not at home, or what, but there was really no movement inside.

Just when Wen Shu was discouraged and felt that this trip might be in vain, the courtyard door behind her finally made a sound, and she was almost turning the corner of the courtyard at that time.

The little woman she had seen before poked her head out of the door. She first glanced left and right, and seeing that Wen Shu was about to turn the corner of the courtyard with her burden on her back, she hurriedly shouted, "Little lady in front, wait."

Wen Shu turned his head but didn't speak, just waiting for her to speak.

The little woman took a look at her and felt that she looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before. Looking at the baggage behind her, she remembered that her husband had just said that there was a fruit seller outside, so she asked: "Little lady sells fruit in her baggage." But eat the fruit that can not be afraid of cold."

"Exactly." Wen Shu nodded lightly.

"Would that let me see?"

"No, this item is only for predestined people, so it's not good to look at it casually."

I have never met a peddler with such a domineering attitude. The little woman was startled for a moment, and then her anticipation for the fruit increased a little.

In her opinion, few businessmen would dare to be so arrogant if they didn't have real skills.

Ordinary stalls and hawkers, in the face of customers who are inquiring, are always dealing with [-] points of energy, lest they have a bad attitude and offend customers.Unless it is a real rare commodity.

After thinking about it, the woman asked. "I don't know how to sell this fruit?"

"A copy of five hundred coins is the same price." Wen Shu's tone was still cold.

After hearing the price, the little woman breathed a sigh of relief. Although five hundred cash is a sky-high price for fruit, it is nothing if it is considered in terms of medical expenses. You must know that the long coat on her body cost four hundred cash. Wen!

"Then get me a copy." After the woman finished speaking, she fixed her eyes on the baggage behind Wen Shu, guessing in her heart how many copies there would be.

But when the paper bag was handed to her eyes, she was startled.

I thought that the fruit bought for five hundred wen would cost at least one catty, but judging by the size of the paper bag in front of me, I'm afraid it's not only one or two taels.

She took it with a forced smile, but the paper bag confirmed her guess as soon as she got it, there were really only two taels of fruit in it!

"Just such a small packet, can it be effective?" She raised her eyes to Wen Shu.

Wen Shu said lightly: "Not necessarily, it varies from person to person, but I only eat so much that I am not afraid of the cold. Judging from the situation of my sister-in-law, it seems that I am more afraid of the cold than ordinary people. If I want to achieve the effect like me, maybe Take two or three."

Hearing this, the little woman couldn't help shaking her hands, and almost dropped the paper bag she had just opened.

"Not necessarily, maybe one pack is enough." She forced a smile.

In fact, I have already started to regret it secretly.

Wen Shu seemed to know what she was thinking, and said calmly, "It's okay to take a pack first, even if it can't achieve the same effect as mine, it will improve a lot. As for whether to buy more in the future, that is my sister-in-law's business."

　Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

　　It is said that if I don't ask for a day, you won't vote, right?
