Chapter 009
Compared to Ye Shen's uneasy mind, Ye Zhan was a little overjoyed.
After coming all the way to Wanfuchi, Ye Zhan made a note in his heart.
Now, as soon as he arrived at Wanfuchi, he set his goal to sell it, and walked up to sell it with a delicate makeup box with cherries.
Ye Zhan’s sales target is a group of pilgrims who have just retired from the Wanfu Pool.
It was a coincidence that it was the first family selected by Master Huineng for Lin Wan, the largest merchant in Qingzhou Prefecture.
The cherries that just picked from the tree in the early morning are rosy and plump, and are even more eye-catching against the background of the emerald green lotus leaves.
The eyes of the ladies and girls following Old Lady Lin’s side lit up instantly. The young man who was held tightly by Old Lady Lin’s hand even straightened his eyes and even subconsciously swallowed several saliva.
Mr. Lin gave a look to the nanny beside him. The nanny reached out and grabbed a few cherries from the lotus leaves that Ye Zhan held. Then a little maid took the initiative to help the nanny clean the cherries with the water bag he carried with him.
After washing it with water, the old lady took the snow-white handkerchief handed over by the little maid and wiped the cherries again and again, then she carefully stuffed the cherries into the little boy's mouth.
To be honest, this cherry is really small, but when I bite it gently, I suddenly felt my mouth full of sweet and slightly sour juice. The young master couldn't help but squint his eyes in satisfaction.
The young master spit out the small and medium-sized cherry pits, obviously very much like the cherries of the Ye family. He stared at the small makeup box that Ye Zhan hugged in his arms for a moment, raised his head and said to Old Lady Lin: "Great-grandmother, delicious!"
This young man was obviously the old lady's heart. The old lady was the most useful person around Mrs. Lin. The young man said "delicious" so simply. Without Mrs. Lin, the old lady stuffed a piece of silver into Ye Zhan's hand without saying a word. Then he snatched the small makeup box that Ye Zhan held with cherries and handed it directly to the little maid beside him. The speed was so fast that Ye Zhan couldn't react.
"Oh, basket!" But Ye Zhan was a clever person after all. He was stunned for a moment and came to his senses, pointing to the makeup box that was tightly held in his arms by the maid.
Although there was a piece of silver stuffed in his hand, Ye Zhan didn't want to give it to the small makeup box like this.
The nanny glared at Ye Zhan: "Can't that piece of silver not enough to buy these cherries and baskets?"
Ye Zhan weighed the broken silver in his hand. This broken silver cost eight yuan if not one tael, so it was naturally enough to buy cherries and baskets.
But he specially used a makeup box and a book basket to sell cherries here, but he had ulterior motives. He wanted to see if he could take this opportunity to sell the makeup box and book basket carefully woven by his grandfather and sell it at a good price.
Now the old lady took away the makeup dowry, what did he use to sell it?!
Before Ye Zhan could make any statement, the old lady saw Ye Zhan staring at the basket that was already held in her arms by the little maid. She could see at a glance that Ye Zhan didn't want to give them the basket. The young man was afraid that Ye Zhan would not want to sell the cherries to them, so she pushed Ye Zhan tightly, so she pushed Ye Zhan, and scolded her face: "I said, boy, I know what it means to stop when you see it? Don't be good at getting a bargain!"
Ye Zhan didn't like the old lady's attitude at first, but when the old lady pushed him, he suddenly became annoyed: "What's the point of pushing it? It's so great to have money, just a piece of silver, I don't care about it anymore. Take the money back and return it to me with the cherries and basket!"
Chen, who was selling to another group of wife and Ye Damin, who was holding Ye Shen, and Ye Damin, who was standing beside him, saw that something was wrong, quickly surrounded him.
Old Lady Lin has been standing aside to watch the show since the beginning. Now she saw that things were frozen, but her baby great-grandson couldn't put it down. Besides, it was really inappropriate for such a small matter to make a noise. When she saw the elders coming over, she naturally couldn't let the old lady continue to argue with Ye Zhan.
She coughed heavily and said, "Yuezhu, since the cherry peaches sold by her children do not include baskets, don't make things difficult for others. Chunxiang has an empty basket on her hand, just pour the cherries into our own basket."
At this time, Chen had already asked about the situation. He took the broken silver from Ye Zhan and weighed it. He naturally knew it. He looked at Ye Zhan and slapped him on the shoulder. Then he smiled and turned to Old Lady Lin: "My grandson is ignorant, so please forgive me."
Seeing that his grandma had to apologize for her insistence, Ye Zhan was really ashamed and a little dissatisfied with the old lady who grabbed the basket. He couldn't help but mutter: "That's not an ordinary basket, it was a makeup box that the grandma had put a lot of effort into making!"
"Brother Zhan!" Although Ye Zhan was telling the truth, he still received a soft shout from Ye Damin.
Ye Zhan had to close his mouth, and the corners of his tightly pursed lips clearly revealed his inner dissatisfaction.
"The baskets made by the grandfather are intact!" Ye Shen, who had always seemed a little absent-minded, suddenly spoke. The crisp voice of the young children in the crowded voices focused the eyes of all the women in the Lin family on the makeup box that was tightly held by the maid.
"There are mechanisms in this basket, who are you cheating on?" The old lady obviously disbelief, looked up and down at the makeup box, and said disapprovingly.
The Lin family naturally felt that the nanny was right. Who would believe this small basket is filled with mechanisms?!
Ye Shen was held in Ye Damin's arms, so he naturally clearly saw the expressions of everyone present.
Although he is only a four or five-year-old child now, he cannot let his family be looked down upon, so he showed some impatient expressions on his face at the right time. At this moment, Ye Shen looked at others as a child who was afraid that others would not believe him.
He pouted and said loudly: "Some, some, do you see the red dot on the basket? There is a mechanism hidden there. Please click the red dot."
However, the four or five-year-old child has a slightly unhealthy complexion, but his words are very regular and his mouth is sweet, which is really annoying.
The maid holding the makeup box did not move. Another maid standing beside her moved. Following Ye Shen's instructions, she gently pressed the red dot on the basket. With a "kla" sound, a small drawer popped out from the side.
There is really an organ!
"This is a makeup box!" Standing side by side with the young master was a girl of about ten. Her eyes lit up and she blurted out. She was a little distance from Ye Zhan and didn't hear what Ye Zhan said just now. Naturally, she didn't know that this was a makeup box.
This design is too clever. It is a waste to use such a basket to hold cherries. Oh, I like it very much!
"That's right, it's the makeup box!" Seeing the girl's like, Ye Zhan smiled proudly and gave Ye Shen a thumbs up.
"Old ancestor, I like this makeup box." Since the mechanism opened, the girl's eyes were stuck on the makeup box. Now she pulled the sleeves of Mrs. Lin and shook them again and again.
