Chapter 173 (1/2)

”Well, do you have barley candy?”

The peddler was stopped by a female voice. At this time, he was also very surprised. The people in Anping village were poor and famous. Every time he passed by the village, no one came to buy anything.

Today's hawker just yells as a routine. He doesn't even use his strength. I didn't expect that today's situation is different from that before. Some people came to inquire and didn't say that it's not a daily necessity, but a useless barley candy.

After all, this time, Su Qiao's aunt was waiting for the peddler to pass by. Of course not.

The peddler fixed his eyes and showed a pleasant smile: ”Oh, it's sister-in-law su. Yes, this barley candy is a common snack. Look!” The peddler said, then lifted the basket in his hand.

There were combs, needles and thread, some rouge powder and so on, and of course, many snacks. The peddler carefully opened a small bag, revealing the colorful sugar inside: ”sister Su, this is barley sugar. How much does sister Su come?”

The sugar looks gorgeous and beautiful. Su Qiao's sister hides behind Su's aunt. At the moment, she sees the sugar and rushes to the front. The sweet smell of barley sugar seems to have penetrated Su Qiao's nose, and her saliva is about to flow out.

Seeing Su Qiaojie's salivation, the peddler also understood why Su's aunt could sell barley candy. It turned out that she couldn't bear the children's begging. When he understood, the peddler immediately changed the object of flattery, squatted down and praised Su Qiaojie how delicious the candy was. Su Qiaojie swallowed her saliva and looked at Su's aunt expectantly.

”How do you sell this sugar?” Seeing her daughter's look of hope, Su's aunt hesitated and asked.

”A pack of copper.” Replied the pedlar.

”What?” Su's aunt was shocked: ”so expensive? Is that small sugar so expensive? ” In this world, a copper plate can exchange for two eggs.

The peddler said with a dry smile: ”sister-in-law, is it still expensive? If you ask me, what I sell is the cheapest in shiliba village! ”

”Don't buy, don't buy...” Su's aunt wiped her hands on her body and waved to the vendor.

The peddler turned his mouth, as expected.

But sister Su Qiao didn't follow her. She held on to her aunt's clothes and said, ”mother...”

Su's aunt patted Su Qiao's head: ”what are you calling! A coin, but two eggs

Sister Su Qiaojie smelled the speech and said: ”you promised to buy it for me. I won't eat any eggs in the future. Tomorrow I will go up the mountain to chop firewood. I, I...” sister Su Qiaojie cried wrongly.

Seeing her poor daughter, Su's aunt took out a copper plate from her pocket and tenderly handed it to the vendor: ”give me a bag.”

”Ah! Take it, little sister! ” The peddler grinned, took the copper, handed a small packet of barley candy to sister Su Qiao, and then shook the basket in her hand: ”I have other snacks here, sister, do you want to have a look?”

”What else are you looking at?” Su's aunt drags Su Qiao's sister back for fear that she will take a fancy to something else. She hums to the peddler, ”let's go!”

Su Qiaojie got what she wanted. She broke her tears into a smile. She didn't want to see anything else at the moment. She just wanted to open the bag of barley candy and quickly taste one. She went back to show off with other children.

When she got what she wanted, Su Qiaojie obediently followed Su's grandparents home. On the way, she couldn't help but greedy. She opened the small bag and swallowed a piece of sugar. Because she swallowed it too fast, she didn't taste anything. However, Su Qiaojie never ate any snacks. She was very happy with the sweetness left in her mouth. She wanted to swallow the rest of the sugar immediately.

But the remaining sugar has other uses. At the moment, Su Qiaojie has no choice but to resist her greediness and walk back with the sugar.

As soon as she entered the yard, Su Qiaojie couldn't help it any more. She yelled at the top of her voice: ”ah, ah! Come out and have a look! What have I brought back? ”

Su Hao looks at Su Qiao elder sister so excited appearance, in the heart secretly smile, she naturally is to understand Su Qiao elder sister must be pestering Su family aunt to buy barley sugar to go, but at this time also pretended a pair of curious appearance, bumped ran over: ”elder sister brought back what?”

Su Qiao elder sister flaunted the small bag in the hand: ”you see, it's barley sugar.”

On hearing the word ”sugar”, Su Erya, who was playing with mud not far away, immediately pasted it up like a dog with meat and bones.
