Chapter 4

From the village to the town, and then from the town to the county, objectively speaking, this is not a very long journey, but it is indeed a big test for Li Su, who is only seven years old now.

When approaching the county, Li Su, who was being held by her mother, was already out of breath. She opened her mouth slightly and took a big breath while recalling her physical condition when she was seven years old in her previous life, and at the same time she made up her mind to exercise well.

Seeing that Li Su was out of breath and her cheeks were red, Mama Li stopped her steps again and asked worriedly, "Susu, do you really want mom to hug you?" She asked her daughter so many times along the way, but Li Su The answer has never changed.

"No need," Li Su shook her head affirmatively, she looked ahead and showed a big smile to Mother Li, "Look, Mom, haven't we already arrived?" There was an indescribable pride in her words.Mother Li nodded and took Li Su's hand, waiting for her breathing to calm down before the two continued to move forward.

Today is the day to go to the market, and with the Chinese New Year approaching, a lot of people from the towns and villages around the county town came.

Mother Li found a vacant spot in the nearby vegetable market in the south of the city, took out the figs, carrots, and cabbage from the back basket, and placed them on the ground in front of her with plastic bags.

Although Li's father works in the coal mine, his family's living expenses and Li Su's tuition cannot all be counted on his salary.Mama Li, who is very budget-conscious, planted all the land in her family with grain and seasonal vegetables. In addition to feeding herself, she often sold the surplus grain and vegetables in the county to earn some money.

Li Su carried the bag on his back to his chest, found two plastic bags from the inside and put them on the stone steps, and said to Li's mother, "Mom, sit down." Li's mother was stunned, and sat down with a smile .After she sat down, Li Su was busy fiddling with the fruits and vegetables that had been put away.

Sitting behind Li Su, Li's mother could only see her jumping around, and she didn't stop her daughter.Li Su is not in good health and has always dressed thickly, but today she is wearing a lot of clothes because she has to go out. From the side, seeing her bulging and holding a carrot is just... like a fat rabbit.

"Little girl, how do you sell these figs?"

Li Su, who was still squatting on the ground and busy with work, raised his head when he heard the sound. Standing in front of him was a rich-looking aunt who looked quite kind. Li Su smiled sweetly at her without hesitation, "Auntie, this fig is made this morning. The fresh ones just picked from the tree only cost 3 yuan a catty."

Mother Li, who was silent behind Li Su, opened her mouth to say something when she heard it, but was preempted, "Three yuan, isn't it too expensive, can't it be cheaper?" The woman was still smiling. , seems not too happy with the price.

Li Su looked at the woman, she was not dressed as if she would care about such a small amount of money, and seeing the smile on her face, she seemed to be in high spirits, Li Su guessed that the other party was not dissatisfied with this The price is just to tease myself.

Thinking of this, Li Su was a little embarrassed, and finally remembered his mother behind him, turned around and asked, "Mom, auntie, can it be cheaper?" A child of his age is too smart when it comes to money. Not likable, Li Su, who had suffered because of this, promptly handed over the job to the adults.
