A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Chapter 1121 Oh, I thought I saw it wrong

When we lived in Qingta Hutong, several of us kids had the experience of setting up stalls to sell vegetables.

The children had no objection to setting up a stall to sell vegetables.

When they got to the market, they all started howling as if to see who had the loudest voice:
"Selling vegetables! Selling strawberries!"

A sister-in-law who was passing by tilted her head to look over, and Shi An saw her and shouted:

"Aunt, come and take a look! These vegetables are all grown by my uncle and aunt. We just picked them and they are so fresh!"

The weather has turned cold recently, and other leafy vegetables, except kohlrabi, are becoming increasingly scarce in the market.

Lu Miao brought two baskets this time.

A large pot of strawberries weighing more than five pounds occupied a corner of the basket.

The rest of the pack was lettuce, cauliflower, spinach, and some fist-sized tomatoes.

My sister-in-law who was passing by heard the children shouting and took a look out of curiosity.

Seeing the vegetables in the basket, he squatted down in front of Lu Miao's makeshift stall:

"Hey girl, where did you get these fresh vegetables? We can't grow them in this weather in the north!"

Lu Miao touched Shi An's head, looked at Shi An with a smile of praise, and said with a smile:
"There is a little vacant space in the yard at home, and these are grown in a greenhouse at home."

Lu Miao smiled and explained to his young sister-in-law while setting out the scale:

"We originally planned to eat them at home, but we planted them so densely that they all grew up in one go. We couldn't finish them at home, so we took them out to sell. Do you want some, big sister?"

"Yes, yes. I want two cauliflowers and this one. I want four lettuces... By the way, girl, how much is this vegetable per pound?"

The vegetables were picked from the field less than an hour ago, and they were visibly fresh. The young sister-in-law nodded hurriedly, but only remembered to ask the price when she was halfway through selecting.

Lu Miao just brought the child here to experience life, and he didn't really expect to make a living by selling vegetables, so he smiled and said:
"They're all sold at two cents a pound."

Leafy vegetables are not expensive, this is the usual price.

However, when the weather gets colder, things become more valuable due to their scarcity, and prices generally fluctuate up a few cents in autumn and winter.

Lu Miao's dishes are good and the price hasn't increased. The young sister-in-law was pleased to hear this:
"This price is right, so please order more, big sister! You brought your child out in such a cold day, sell them quickly so you can take the child back... Foreign tomatoes can be stored, so give me two kilograms too!"

"Hey, good."

The young sister-in-law wanted a lot, so Lu Miao was busy packing the goods and weighing them at the same time, and was a little flustered.

When the three children saw this, they all squatted over to help.

A transaction had just been completed here, and other people passing by saw it and came over to ask how the vegetables were sold.

This time, Lu Miao didn't even need to speak. The young sister-in-law who was still carrying the vegetables was very kind-hearted and took the initiative to help introduce them:

"They are all grown in her own shed. They were just picked up from the fields. Look, they are very fresh! The price is also right, only two cents a pound!"

"Is that true? Then I want some too!"

"I also want!"

The vegetables were in great demand and soon there was not much left in the basket.

It’s strawberry, and many people don’t even know it.

Lu Miao introduced it as a fruit and gave some to many people to try. Some people said it was "delicious", but few people were interested in buying it.

After all, the New Year is here, and the vegetables are bought to go with meals.

Fruit is not a necessity for three meals a day.

In the minds of many people, spending money to buy fruit is considered a luxury...

There was nothing she could do if she couldn't sell them. Lu Miao thought she could wash the strawberries and pack them for the kids to take to school tomorrow to share with their classmates. She put the scale in the basket and prepared to pack up and take the kids home.

After all, it's really cold, and it's not good to stay outside for too long.

In this brief moment, a pair of feet wearing women's leather shoes suddenly stood between Lu Miao and the first two baskets.

"Oh! I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you, Director Lu."

The loud laughter of the lady was clearly audible, and Lu Miao looked up to the side and glanced at her.

When she saw who it was, she was stunned for a moment.

After putting away the basket and handing it to Shi An, Lu Miao patted Shi An on the back and asked him to take his brothers and sisters back first.

Shi An twisted his body, took a step forward and stood in front of his aunt, stubbornly refusing to move an inch.

The visitor is not good.

The half-grown boy seemed to sense something as well. He frowned slightly and looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him with caution as if facing a great enemy.

Lu Miao was both angry and amused, and patted Shi An on the head with a hint of punishment and teasing.

She pulled the three children to the side of the road to avoid being hit or tripped by pedestrians, then looked directly at the passerby and said:

"Comrade Min, long time no see."

Min Qiaoqiao snorted:
"Yes, it's been a long time."

In the past, the two were colleagues at the same level and saw each other every day, but now it is different.

As for face-to-face meetings, this was the first time Min Qiaoqiao met Lu Miao after being dismissed by the British British Press.

Most of the people I deal with when selling and buying vegetables are ordinary citizens, so naturally they cannot dress the same way as they do at work.

Otherwise, who would dare to buy your vegetables?

This time, Lu Miao specially dug out the old cotton-padded jacket he made when he returned to the city a few years ago.

Min Qiaoqiao looked her up and down and saw that she was not dressed as elegantly as before, and was selling vegetables at a stall here, looking like she was in a state of downfall.

For a moment, Min Qiaoqiao was arrogant and smug, but also a little proud:
"What's wrong? Didn't Director Lu stay at the Guoying Society after I left? Now he can only make a living by selling vegetables here?"

She laughed and joked, stroking her camel-colored wool coat to show off, winking and continuing with a generous gesture:
"Director Lu is having such a hard time, why didn't you tell me earlier? We were colleagues in the past, so we have some ties. If you ask, I can definitely recommend a good job for you."

As she spoke, Min Qiaoqiao put her hands around her shoulders and raised her chin.

I was ready to be pestered and begged by Lu Miao.

Lu Miao smiled and put the small stool into the basket, but did not continue her words:

"Excuse me, Comrade Min. I am very satisfied with my current life. We are going to go home after selling everything. We still have some strawberries left. Do you want some?"

Min Qiaoqiao didn't believe that Lu Miao would not be tempted by such an attractive opportunity.

Seeing that Lu Miao was really packing up to leave, she thought that Lu Miao was just too embarrassed to pretend to be noble, so she smiled even more widely.

It didn't matter whether Lu Miao begged her or not. Anyway, catching Lu Miao selling vegetables here in a miserable state was already a humiliation for Lu Miao.

Not to mention that she is now a buyer, and Lu Miao is just a vegetable seller.

Min Qiaoqiao glanced at the strawberries that Lu Miao mentioned and said slowly, smiling deliberately in a friendly manner:

"Yes, how much is one pound? I want them all!"

"I am the only one who sells strawberries in northern Beijing this season. Others buy them for two yuan per pound. If Comrade Min buys them..."

Lu Miao said warmly, pretending to hesitate for a moment before continuing;
"Even if it's a discount, it's 1.8 yuan per pound. We still have four pounds here. Comrade Min, do you really want all of them?"
