Chapter 645: My Eyes Hurt
Editor: Henyee Translations
The middle-aged man was thin, but his expression was a little gloomy.
There was also a stall in front of him with more than 20 pots of flowers. There were not many things, but they occupied a large area and squeezed the little girl’s stall into a corner.
There were also more than 20 pots of flowers in the little girl’s stall, but they were all squeezed together. Almost all the small flower pots were piled together, and it was impossible to tell which potted plant those flowers belonged to.
However, the little girl clearly cherished these flowers very much. On such a hot day, there were two paper umbrellas covering the flowers. There were even some water droplets on the flowers, as if they had just been watered. They looked especially bright and refreshing.
On the other hand, the middle-aged man held an oil-paper umbrella in his hand to block the sun above his head. The flowers were listless, making people not have the slightest desire to buy them.
Moreover, what did he just say? He wanted to buy this girl’s pot of flowers for 20 copper coins? In this day and age, expensive flowers like Yaohuang and Weizi were worth hundreds or thousands of taels.
Of course, the flowers in front of the little girl were all ordinary flowers, but they were also very ornamental. It could be seen that they had been carefully taken care of. Even if they were not very expensive, they were definitely worth more than 20 copper coins per pot.
This middle-aged man was quite scheming.
Just as Gu Yundong was thinking, a woman suddenly rushed over from afar.
She was still holding a small kettle in her hand. She must have gone to the river to get water. When she came back and saw the little girl wiping her tears, her heart ached. “What’s wrong?”
“Mother, I didn’t protect Little Hui well.” The little girl pointed at the flower on the ground, looking very sad.
Her mother patted her head. Before she could comfort her, she heard the middle-aged man’s mocking laughter again. “Hahaha, you actually named flowers. Are you a fool?”
His words were harsh, but Gu Yundong suddenly remembered who this person was.
Shopkeeper Pan!!
Back then, the shopkeeper who wanted to cheat Shao Qingyuan ended up asking for trouble and was hung on a tree by Shao Qingyuan with a rope.
He had been arrested and taken away. He was already released after almost a year?
Moreover, he used to be Shopkeeper Pan. Now, he had fallen to the point where he could only occupy a seat here and sell flowers?
Yes, he had lost a lot of weight now. No wonder Gu Yundong could not tell at a glance.
However, after being in prison for so long, he still refused to change. In the past, he wanted to take advantage of Shao Qingyuan. Now, he was bullying the women and children. He was simply hopeless.
Gu Yundong shook her head and walked to the mother and daughter. She squatted down and said to the little girl, “I want to buy your flowers, okay?”
The little girl looked up with tears in the corners of her eyes.
Her mother also looked at Gu Yundong happily and hurriedly nodded. “Of course. Miss, you can choose whichever pot you like. Look, there are orchids, lilies, hibiscus, and mountain pellets. They’re all beautiful.”
Gu Yundong indeed thought that they were very good-looking. The young lady also smiled through her tears and looked at Gu Yundong expectantly.
When Shopkeeper Pan saw that there was a customer, he hurriedly rushed forward and squeezed the little girl and her mother to the side.
“Miss, if you want to buy flowers, come to my place to buy them. I have all kinds of flowers. Come and take a look. Mine are more than theirs. There are even big flowers. They’re cheap and especially fragrant.”
Gu Yundong hated him very much. She casually glanced at the flowers in his stall and said, “Those flowers of yours are withered. I feel my eyes hurt just by looking at them. Besides, I can tell at a glance that they’re sick and about to die from bug bites. I won’t pay a copper coin for them..”
