Chapter 104 - 104: A Good Person
She couldn’t easily refuse the aunt’s kindness, so she took out a coin and handed it to the aunt.
“Please take it. This big cabbage is nurtured by your sweat and toil, I can’t accept it for free. ”
The aunt repeatedly waved her hands. “Our Li Zhu receives a lot of care from
Boss Su. He works part-time at the pig farm because of Boss Su’s help.
Hearing this, Gu Zi realized that this was Li Zhu’s mother.
No wonder Li Zhu was always helping Su Shen; he was Su Shen’s little helper!
In truth, she also liked Li Zhu, a diligent and capable kid.
But Gu Zi liked to stick to her principles, so she insisted on paying.
“Li Zhu’s mom, please take it. When you come to the market to sell your produce, it’s to exchange for money. You can’t make a trip for nothing. We need to support the street vendor economy.”
Originally, Li Zhu’s mom didn’t want to accept the money.
Because Boss Su had helped their family a lot, she remembered every little bit.
But seeing that Gu Zi wasn’t someone who took advantage, and genuinely wanted to pay for her vegetables, she accepted the money.
“As expected of an educated person, I can’t argue with you. But if you ever want these big cabbages again, just let Li Zhu know, and he’ll bring them to you.”
When she usually came to the market, if she hadn’t sold out her vegetables and met an acquaintance, she’d give some away.
Now that the Su family wanted to eat these vegetables, giving them to the Su family was better than giving them away elsewhere.
Plus, it spared this fair-skinned young girl from pushing the child here and running a trip for nothing.
Gu Zi revealed her bright white teeth. “Sure, I was already pleasantly surprised to find this kind of cabbage here! I’ll definitely come to you for purchases in the future. ”
Saying goodbye to Li Zhu’s mom, Gu Zi continued to browse the market.
Li Zhu’s mom looked at the beautiful figure and smiled, shaking her head. She exclaimed, “Boss Su has finally met a good person!”
She had a feeling that this city girl was definitely different from those vulgar women.
“Raisins for sale! Turpan local raisins, not sweet, free of charge! Not sweet, free of charge!”
Gu Zi was drawn to the familiar and energetic shouting. She saw a slightly old but clean tricycle.
The back of the vehicle was filled with emerald green raisins, large and plump, looking very tempting.
She noticed the seller sitting on the cart and asked, “Big brother, are these really Turpan raisins?”
Gu Zi couldn’t believe that Turpan raisins had become famous so early.
The big brother looked up, feeling delighted by the appearance of this beautiful girl. His trip here was worth it.
The big brother cheerfully replied, “I have a grocery store in the city, and our goods are all sourced from the local Turpan trading market. We guarantee the authentic taste. Today, since I had free time, I came out to set up a stall!”
Gu Zi tasted one and a pure rose fragrance spread in her mouth.
Thick and soft, yet with a good chew, it was indeed high quality!
He could buy some snacks and make dessert ingredients. Anyway, they had many uses.
The price seemed reasonable to her, so she bought five kilograms in one go.
The big brother’s face was beaming; even in the city, few people would spend so generously!
He enthusiastically praised, “Young Lady, you sure know your stuff! Our
Turpan raisins were offered as tribute to the royal court back in the Southern
Liang Dynasty…”
Gu Zi really wanted to give the big brother a thumbs up; his knowledge base was quite rich!
Pushing her cart forward, Gu Zi bought two large watermelons and turned back home.
On the way back, Gu Zi thought that after she turned the cool bean jelly grass into sweetened grass jelly, she would try setting up a stall at the market.
When they arrived home, it was exactly eleven o’clock. Gu Zi placed Lele on the sofa and gave her a biscuit to eat.
Then she got to work; she was going to start preparing lunch now and planned to pickle the vegetables in the afternoon.
In the city, at Su Jing’s house.
When Tian Hai returned home, he saw a basket of apples and a packet of biscuits on the long and narrow table. He reached out to take an apple.
Su Jing ran out of the house and snatched the apple back. She also tidied up her meticulously styled hair.
“Brother Hai, I bought these five apples on sale. If you eat one, how will we take them to the Su family? Give it back!”
As soon as Tian Hai heard “to the Su family,” his mind was filled with visions of Gu Zi’s beautiful face and her curves.
