Reborn 1980: The Peasant Girl of Vanves

Chapter 157 Liars Are Everywhere
On the evening of the second day, Qin Guan came early to look for Runyue.

The two of them were at the market, and they waited all night for the place where the old man set up a stall yesterday.

Until the night market was over, the old man did not come.

"Maybe it's because the bamboo is not easy to dig. I haven't dug a few, and it may come tomorrow."

Qin Guan persuaded when sending Runyue back.

Lean Yue didn't speak, the old man definitely didn't look like a liar.

On the third day and the fourth day, Runyue and Qin Guan waited for another two full nights, but there was still no sign of the old man.

On the fifth day, when Qin Guan came to look for Runyue, Runyue made up her mind, "Go tonight for the last time, if he comes, he will come, and if he doesn't come, forget it.

It's been almost a week since I've been out, and there's still a lot of business at home, and my uncle and aunt are too busy.

Knowing that the matter of Wanbobo Pharmaceutical Factory is not because of the quality of my raw materials, I am relieved.

If he doesn't come tonight, I will go back to Qingniu Village tomorrow. "

Qin Guan clenched Runyue's hand, although he was reluctant to let go, but he couldn't let go of the facts in Qingniu Village.

The two talked and walked to the market.

Following the crowded flow of people, I walked towards the stall where I saw the old man selling bamboo shoots on the first day.

In the distance, a donkey cart pulls several bundles of verdant bamboo, and the old bamboo shoot seller is sitting on the shaft of the cart.

"Hurry up, Runyue, he's here." Qin Guan pulled Runyue and squeezed through the gap.

"Oh, you two are here. I'm afraid that if you don't come for so many days, you won't be able to find me. You don't want this bamboo seedling." Seeing Run Yue and Qin Guan, the old man quickly jumped off the shaft of the car with an apologetic expression on his face.

"Master, we have been looking for you for several days, and we thought you would not come." Runyue directly expressed her worries.

"How could it be? My old head Liu hasn't taken other people's money and done nothing. Isn't that a liar?

It's really something at home, so I can't leave..." As the old man said, he tore a bundle of bamboo seedlings from the car for Runyue and Qin Guan to see, "My bamboo seedlings are all covered with lumps of dirt, and they are tied up with plastic. I'm just afraid that the season is not right, and you will not be able to grow it when you go back. "

Runyue looked at the bamboo seedlings and nodded approvingly, "The uncle is still thoughtful!
How many bamboo seedlings are there in total?I give you the money. "

"One hundred and six trees, let's count as one hundred trees, and the price you gave is also high."

Leap month counted the money and handed it to old man Liu.

Old man Liu put the money into his close-fitting jacket, fastened the pocket with a pin, and then asked Runyue, "Where can I take this bamboo seedling for you?"

Before Runyue could answer, he heard someone behind him shout, "Hey, old Liu, this is the one you said wanted bamboo seedlings, right?

We also brought a few bundles here, can you take a look and collect them together? "

Old man Liu tilted his head to look at the person who was speaking, and said with a sneer, "Er Mai Tai, when did you work so hard to go up the mountain to dig bamboo seedlings?"

"Old Liu, what are you talking about? You can't rely on your family to make money. Your son can go up the mountain with a lame leg. Why can't I dig bamboo seedlings and sell them? "

"The sun is coming out towards the west!" Old Liu muttered, looking at the bamboo seedlings behind the two of them.

The night market is a bit dark, and it is a bit hard to see clearly with the lights of the stalls next to it.

Old Liu walked over with his hands behind his back, bent over and looked carefully.

The person called Er Mai Tai stood in front of Old Liu, "What are you looking at, haven't you seen bamboo seedlings?"

Turning to Runyue again, he asked, "Girl, my bamboo seedlings are much tenderer than his. You can take it for two yuan a piece, right?"

For some reason, Runyue always had the feeling that this person was trying to lie to her, but other than that his bamboo seedlings were smaller than Old Liu's, she couldn't tell anything.

It's not afraid of being small, just spraying the potion once more can solve the problem.

Runyue was just about to say to stay, and happened to take them back together.

I heard the old head Liu laugh and say, "Er Maitai, are you used to opportunistic things?

How to use this bitter bamboo to deceive other laymen? "

"Old Liu. What nonsense are you talking about? My bamboo is obviously the best, how can I say it is bitter bamboo?!"

"Er Maitai, you can fool others, but you can't fool me, this bitter bamboo grows thin and short when planted, and the bamboo shoots are all bitter, so it's useless at all.

As for bamboo seedlings, no one wants them, and you want them to pay two yuan a tree. You are so unconscionable, can this money be well spent? "

"Old Liu, you are stubborn, I am obviously a good bamboo seedling..." Er Maitai took a step forward and pushed Old Liu hard.

Old Liu took a few steps back, and the next moment he bent down and picked up the bamboo seedlings on the ground for the onlookers to see, "Look at the bamboo branches, how soft are they? Look at the bamboo leaves. They are short and wide. They don't look like bamboo shoots." Bamboo look.

No matter how short of money we are, we have to set our consciences right. Don't say that I told you about the sale of bamboo seedlings, even if someone else said it, you can't cheat people.

If this thing is planted, won't it delay other people's harvest?When the time comes, people will scold your eighth-generation ancestors, and you can spend your whole life cheating on that two money? "

Er Maitai was stabbed in the heart by the old Liu Tou, and became angry from embarrassment, "Old Liu Tou, hello, you have a righteous heart, you have done good deeds, and your son rolled down the mountain digging bamboo seedlings!"

Hearing what he said, Runyue quickly persuaded Old Liu with Qin Guan, and asked, "Uncle Liu, what happened to your son rolling down the mountain?"

Hearing this question from Runyue, old head Liu stopped arguing with Er Maitai, his wrinkled old face twitched again and said, "To tell you the truth, my son broke a leg when he went out to work, and the boss didn't even pay for it." Neither was given, nor was the disease treated, so I had to come back to recuperate.

I heard that you want bamboo seedlings for two yuan a tree, so I went to the mountain to dig bamboo seedlings with me, but rolled down the mountain, and fell down again, and now I am bedridden. To buy him medicine. "

It turned out that this was the case, no wonder the old man didn't come for several days.

"Girl, look at our bamboo seedlings..." Er Maitai asked, tugging at Runyue.

"Sorry, I don't want that much, Uncle Liu is enough." Runyue didn't want to offend those two people, and he was not afraid of them, but Qin Guan was still there after he left, and Uncle Liu was still there.

If they were looking for trouble with Uncle Liu and Qin Guan, it would be impossible for them to do so.

"Girl, you are not short of these dozens of trees..."

"I'm sorry, I'll just plant some in front of and behind the house to enjoy the shade. I really don't need that much. You can ask others."

Speaking of asking others, this is not the season for planting bamboo, and it is not easy to meet such a fool as Lean Yue.

Er Maitai and his companion looked at each other, knowing that this matter is dead.

It's all the fault of that nosy old head Liu, he deserves a beating!

The two picked up the bamboo shoots on the ground, cursed and left.

Go to the backside, throw the bamboo seedlings into the ditch, and go straight back to the village.

Runyue took Uncle Liu, took the bamboo seedlings to the hotel where she was staying, unloaded them under the window of the hotel, and gave the aunt in charge one yuan to help her look at them for one night.

Watching Uncle Liu turn the car around to leave, Lean Yue suddenly had an idea.
