Chapter 22 Bird Illustration
"You said this egg is worth three pennies, so it is worth three pennies?"
The aunt scolded her with her hands on her hips, her expression disdainful: "You have never seen the county magistrate's chickens. How do you know his chickens won't lay such eggs? Who would buy such precious eggs from you?"
"
Qian became even more angry after hearing this.
If this egg was not good, why did she choose it instead of other eggs when it came up?
Cheng Erlang was so stupid that he stood nearby and suppressed his face until his face turned red.
He could only pull Qian's sleeve and said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, this is an old customer who buys our things. It's just one egg. It's not necessary. We still have so many, which are enough to sell for a lot of money."
Mrs. Qian said reluctantly: "How can other people's eggs compare with ours?"
The old lady yelled and sneered: "Can your eggs still be golden eggs? I came here specifically to buy things from you, and you have this attitude. I haven't even cared about it yet. Who do you think you are?"
The stall owners in nearby stalls who were joining in the fun also laughed.
After listening to it for a few times, Ye Ning almost understood what was going on. The lady wanted to buy all the white eggs and wanted to bargain down to three cents for two. Qian was not happy and they started to quarrel.
"Auntie, it's not that we won't sell it to you, but you can see that we only have a dozen white eggs."
Ye Ning walked over with a smile, lifted the cloth covering the eggs, slowed down his voice, and said in a persuasive manner: "If you buy them all, wouldn't others be able to buy them? So, each of us will only be able to buy them."
I can buy two.”
Qian's eyes widened in dissatisfaction.
My mother never said this!
Cheng Erlang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his wife coming back. He quickly pulled his sister-in-law, who was still stubborn, to the side, leaving the main court to Ye Ning. He also picked up his daughter who was watching the fun outside.
Cheng Miaomiao poked her head out with relish to watch the excitement.
At this time, a faint sound of bleating sounded in her ears. She didn’t know where it came from. Her eyes wandered around unconsciously, and finally she saw a furry animal in the gap between the stone slabs not far away.
The little brain popped out.
Its two small paws scratched the stone slab, and its head was probed, its black beady eyes full of schadenfreude.
Um...is this a mouse?
Cheng Miaomiao was stunned for a moment, and then slipped from behind when the adults weren't paying attention.
The old lady said with doubts on her face: "Really or not?"
She looked back and forth between several people, always feeling that they were working together to deceive her.
"My sister-in-law is just a little anxious. After all, there are only so many eggs."
Ye Ning smiled and took out a round, white egg and put it in her hand and said, "Madam, you are also our old customer. We won't lie to you. How about five cents for two?"
As he spoke, he stuffed an egg from an ordinary hen into her hand. The two had completely different textures.
When you hold a white egg, it's like holding a piece of white jade.
It's hard to imagine that this kind of touch was caused by eggs. The old lady swallowed her words that were not very happy at first. Her eyes suddenly changed when she looked at Bai Dan, and she said with an uneasy heart: "Xiaoye, I'm also taking care of your business.
.”
"Yes, I know. The basket you are carrying now was made by Erlang."
"This basket is really well made."
The care in the old lady's heart slowly disappeared, and she said instead: "Okay, bring me two white eggs, and eight more ordinary ones."
"Okay, please keep these eggs."
After receiving the eggs, the old lady gave Ye Ning seventeen cents, turned around and left happily.
Seeing that the matter was solved so easily, the others became very interested in the white eggs they brought out. Come on, you can buy two, I can buy two and they are all sold out quickly.
Several bamboo baskets and baskets were also sold.
No one noticed that Cheng Miaomiao appeared silently on the opposite street. She was squatting on the ground and staring at the mouse with big eyes. But it was wrong to say that it was a mouse. How could a mouse have wings?
This little mouse wasn't afraid of her either. He bleated dissatisfiedly when she blocked his field of view, and mice didn't bleat either.
Those black beady eyes were full of condemnation, as if she had delayed it.
Cheng Miaomiao looked back and found that what she was looking at was the bustle of her own home: "..."
I'm so angry, this is actually a mouse that can only have fun.
What exactly did it learn?
Forget it, let's try the identification first and see if we can determine what it is.
Cheng Miaomiao's thoughts moved slightly, and the Book of Mountains and Seas Illustrated Book instantly turned into a golden light and flew out from the center of her eyebrows. At this moment, the little mouse suddenly froze in place, dizzy, and she immediately grabbed its wings quickly.
The illustrated book suddenly started to flip through, and finally stopped.
Written at the top of the page are two words - Yuniao.
[Host: Cheng Miaomiao (Mountain God)
Species: Yu bird (newborn)
Characteristics: It looks like a mouse and has bird wings, and its sound is like a sheep. It can be used to control soldiers.
Status: hungry and languid, slightly injured, tameable (can eat the power of the mountain god)]
Sure enough, it is another species from the Classic of Mountains and Seas!
Cheng Miaomiao exclaimed in surprise: "Are you still injured?"
Yuniao didn't struggle, he held her fingers with his little paws and bleated softly in aggrievedness.
What made these people hate the mouse so much? Even though it had wings and was not a mouse, they still shouted at it to kill it. If it hadn't run fast, its life would have been lost.
Cheng Miaomiao puffed out her cheeks and said, "You deserve it."
She stretched out her finger and poked it on the forehead, pointing and saying: "You should hide, instead of running out and watching the fun like now, and you are still watching with gusto!"
Yuniao looked at her eagerly.
At this moment, someone from behind suddenly tapped Cheng Miaomiao on the shoulder and asked, "Little girl, why are you squatting here by yourself and talking? Where are your parents?"
Cheng Miaomiao was startled and quickly stuffed the bird into her sleeve.
When she turned around, she saw the person tapping her shoulder. He had yellow teeth and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits. He was a short, middle-aged man, and his smile made people look a little uncomfortable.
Huangya glanced at her sleeve and continued to ask with a smile: "What are you doing squatting here? Tell your uncle about it. Your uncle is also very curious. Are you looking at the ants?"
The tone sounded familiar, as if the two of them knew each other.
As he said that, Huang Ya wanted to reach out and pinch her face.
Cheng Miaomiao frowned tightly, took a few steps back, and stared at him warily: "I don't know you, why should I tell you what I am doing."
"Oh, this little girl has quite a temper."
Huang Ya became happy and reached out to grab her arm.
Seeing this, Cheng Miaomiao immediately widened his eyes, and without thinking, he took out the bird from his sleeve and threw it at him, shouting: "Come on, someone is going to eat the child!"
The bird's shrill scream.
"What-!"
