Food: The super chef just wants to set up a stall leisurely

Chapter 398 The fun of showing off your affection late at night

Zhao Xiaojing was rarely leisurely, and she walked along the path surrounded by Hypericum with her bag on her back.

This area leads to the supermarket and is the corner with the street where Zhao Xiaojing's shop is located. It has been made into a pocket park for greening purposes, but because there is a larger square in front of the supermarket, there are not many people here.

However, although there are not many people, it is the time when all things grow, and the quietness makes the trees and flowers more lush and fragrant.

The path was not long, and it only took Zhao Xiaojing five minutes to walk along it. Just as she was admiring the healing power of plants on the body and mind, she smelled an even sweeter and quieter fragrance.

Zhao Xiaojing took a few quick steps and discovered that a row of old men and women were sitting on the stone pier at the other side of the exit of the pocket park. Each of them had one or two small baskets in front of them, containing small portions of vegetables, and two of them were filled with locust flowers.

At this time and this place, people should be taking advantage of the fact that the urban management staff are off work and the few people on duty are too busy to take care of this place, so they take advantage of the opportunity to set up stalls.

"How much is a pound of Sophora japonica flowers?" I haven't been to the vegetable market for a long time. It turns out that Sophora japonica flowers are out. Zhao Xiaojing happily took a few steps forward, squatted down and took a look.

The locust flowers at both stalls were still in bud form and looked very fresh. When I walked closer and smelled them, the fragrance became even stronger.

"Five dollars, how much do you want?" When she saw someone asking, the aunt hurriedly pulled out a plastic bag and opened it.

"Beauty, I have some too. The price is the same. If what she has is not enough, buy some from me! Mine are also fresh!" An old man who was also selling locust flowers leaned forward to attract customers when he saw Zhao Xiaojing asking.

"They haven't bought it yet, stop talking nonsense!" the aunt scolded.

"Why, you can't sell it to me?" The old man raised his eyebrows and retorted.

"Go somewhere else to get business, don't come to me!"

Before Zhao Xiaojing could say anything, the two people, who were over a hundred years old in total, were about to start quarreling.

"Auntie, don't make a noise, I want them all! Uncle, don't make a noise either, I want all yours too! Pack them all up!" Zhao Xiaojing hurriedly raised her voice to interrupt.

Sophora japonica flowers are seasonal vegetables, and you can only eat fresh ones in April and May when they are in season. Among the fresh Sophora japonica flowers, the ones in the bud state and not yet fully bloomed are the most delicious, and you are lucky to come across them. The Sophora japonica flowers sold by the uncles and aunts all look good and are not expensive. There are many people in the store, so it is just right to buy all of them.

"Don't pay attention to him, my girl! Buy as much as you need. Don't buy too much and then you can't finish it! He is like this. If he can't sell all, let him sell as much as he can!" When the aunt heard this, she didn't rush to pack the bags, but instead started to persuade them.

"Why should I sell more if I can't sell all of them? Why don't you go back and take a nap? Why don't you sell more here?" The old man simply ignored Zhao Xiaojing's request to pack up all the goods and stood up from the stone pier.

"Okay, okay, the girl has said she wants them all, why are you so angry? Hurry up and pretend!"

"That's right, why are you so angry about selling something? Just sell it!"

Seeing that the old man was getting angry, the other uncles and aunts selling vegetables nearby started to persuade him.

"You want to sell it yourself. If you don't sell it here, who will sell it here? It's your turn to sell it!"

When the aunt saw that the uncle was getting angry, she seemed to block out all the voices trying to stop the fight, stood up, pointed at the uncle and started scolding him.

"I am responsible for everything? I am the one who wakes up early in the morning to fight so much, and you are comfortable at home? Are you right?"

"I'm comfortable at home? Who cooks for me? I don't need anyone to wash my clothes, right? I'm comfortable at home, why do you have to ask me to come out and sell this stuff? Sell it yourself! You don't sleep in the morning, but have to get up to pick locust flowers. You don't even want to work. Why don't you sell it? How much do you get?"

Oh, so they are a couple! Zhao Xiaojing was about to repeat that she wanted everything and asked them not to steal the business, but she swallowed it back.

This is not a conflict caused by competing for business.

"I work like a slave at home, but you call me and ask me to bring you a basket or a bag. I can't do anything myself, and yet I'm always being bossed around by others. Who is responsible for whose job?!"

The auntie kept roaring with great momentum. When the uncle saw this, he sat down on the stone block again, turned his head away without saying a word, and gasped for breath in anger.

"Alright, alright, you two, why do you quarrel so much every day? Hurry up and pretend to be a locust flower for the girl!"

"The girl is still waiting here. Why are you so angry if you sell out the items early and go home?"

Seeing that the old man was depressed, the vendors who had spoken just now started to persuade him again.

"Uncle and aunt, please pretend to be locust flowers. I really want them all. I have a lot of people and I can take them all." Zhao Xiaojing persuaded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

I never thought that buying a locust flower would require me to witness a tragic marriage of a middle-aged couple.

"Did you hear that? The girl wants it!"

"I'm sorry, I'll weigh it for you!" The aunt rolled her eyes at the uncle, threw away the plastic bag she had just taken out, and took out a neatly folded snakeskin bag from her bag.

When the uncle saw the aunt move, he stood up with a snort, picked up the aunt's basket, and poured the locust flowers into the opened snakeskin bag.

After emptying the two baskets, the snakeskin bag was just filled up. The final weight was a little over 15 kilograms. The aunt simply rounded off the decimal point and gave a total of 75 yuan based on 15 kilograms.

The snakeskin bag filled with 15 kilograms of locust flowers felt heavy. Zhao Xiaojing weighed the bag and was thinking whether to put it back in the store or eat first, when she saw the old man who was so angry just now suddenly changed his expression.

"Let me do it! You take a rest!" The old man swiftly picked up the old woman's empty basket and stacked it with his own.

"I'll collect them!" Just as the aunt was about to pick up the beam scale, the uncle immediately took a step ahead of her and picked up the beam scale and the plastic bag and put them into the basket.

"Carry it for me!" The aunt took a step forward, but the uncle stopped her with a smile on his face and picked up the two baskets himself.

"Hmph." The old lady stopped speaking harshly and just glared at the old man before walking forward on her own.

The old man hurriedly trotted after the old lady with the basket in his hand, and caught up with her. He threw the basket into the parking lot of the tricycle and held out his right hand. "Come on, Queen Mother, please get in the car."

"Tsk! Here you go again!" The aunt laughed out loud, slapped the uncle on the shoulder, and then helped the uncle get on the tricycle by the hand.

"We respectfully escort the Empress Dowager back to the palace!" The old man smiled and twisted the handle. The electric tricycle immediately made a sound and disappeared around the corner carrying the two of them.

Zhao Xiaojing blinked blankly.

"These two are like this every day. We are so tired of trying to stop them from fighting, but they are fine again the next moment!"

"That's right, that's why I kept quiet when you guys tried to stop them from fighting. I'm used to it. Their quarrel is just entertainment!"

"It's others who are having fun!"

The remaining vendors started talking about it.

Zhao Xiaojing then suddenly understood.

It turns out that this is not a messy middle-aged marriage tragedy, but the fun of showing off love late at night!
