Chapter 158 Selling Winter Melon
He and Lu Siyuan’s grandfather and grandson are the only ones at home. His wife passed away a few years ago, and his daughter is also out doing business. He hasn’t come back for several years.
It's okay to get used to it. This will see Shen Mianmian as a cleanly dressed girl. He is afraid that others will dislike him, so he looks down on Lu Siyuan.
"Grandpa, you don't need to pack up, it won't delay my walk." Seeing that an old grandfather who didn't act very fast, started to pack up, Shen Mianmian trotted over and helped Grandpa Lu to sit down.
"Why are you here?" Hearing the movement, Lu Siyuan walked out of the kitchen, wearing an apron made from ragged clothes.
Who would have thought that Lu Siyuan, who did not hand in his homework at school, fought with other classmates, gave the teacher a headache, and was unanimously judged by everyone as a bear child, would be such a sensible child at home?
Don't talk about others, anyway, Shen Mianmian was very surprised, but she didn't show it on her face, the half-old child was already starting to lose face, and she was afraid that Lu Siyuan would be embarrassed.
"I have something to tell you." She blinked, "About going to the city to sell things."
"I'm cooking, go into the kitchen and tell me." Lu Siyuan turned his head and entered the kitchen. He usually cooks, and he didn't feel anything, but when Shen Mianmian saw this scene, he felt a little awkward.
"Grandpa, then I'll go first." Shen Mianmian greeted Grandpa Lu.
"Go! Go!" It was the first time that Lu Siyuan was a little girl. Grandpa Lu was very happy, "Siyuan, there are still a few eggs in the kitchen. I will fry some egg pancakes for lunch."
It was only one o'clock. Grandpa Lu thought that Shen Mianmian hadn't eaten yet. Usually, the grandfather and grandson could eat anything. Now that the grandson's classmates are here, why do they have to add a dish.
"understood."
Lu Siyuan responded in the kitchen.
Shen Mianmian wanted to tell Grandpa Lu that she had eaten, but when she thought about it, the old man would definitely think she was being polite. She went into the kitchen to talk to Lu Siyuan, and saw that Lu Siyuan was already beating eggs in the bowl.
She hurriedly said, "I've already eaten, don't mind me, don't make any eggs, keep it for Grandpa to replenish his body."
Grandpa Lu was struggling to stand up just now, probably because her waist was not very good. Lu Siyuan also mentioned this before. Shen Mianmian knew that the old man was good-natured and generous, but she could not eat the old people's food greedily.
Lu Siyuan rolled his eyes, "We also eat, not for you alone."
Shen Mianmian: "..." Alright! It's she who thinks too much.
Seeing that the fire at the bottom of the stove was about to go out, Shen Mianmian hurriedly squatted down to help start the fire.
Lu Siyuan beat four eggs into the bowl, and skillfully stirred it twice with chopsticks before asking, "What are you going to say?"
"How much is a pound of winter melon in the city?" Shen Mianmian didn't rush to talk, but asked a question first.
"Three cents a pound."
Lu Siyuan has been to the city many times, and he has also been to the vegetable market. He still knows a little about the prices inside.
One penny per pound in the countryside. If you buy more, maybe you can buy two pounds for one penny, and three cents in the city, and transportation costs are not required. The profit margin is already huge.
"I want to buy winter melons and sell them in the city." Shen Mianmian suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried to soften his tone, "I sell it for three cents in the city, and I sell it for two cents, five or two cents, what do you think? "
