Love That Extends Life

Chapter 285: Ladies First, You Don’t Understand

Unexpectedly, Chu Yunhao's topic made Grandma Tian withdraw her hand. The chicken coop was full of hens, and she would sell the eggs they laid at the market, so she really couldn't bear to kill the chickens for food.

"Grandma can make all of what you said, so go buy some and I'll cook it for you."

"Okay, I'll go to the street to buy it now." Chu Yunhao agreed, and he walked away with a smile.

Chu Yunhao drove to the main road. When he saw Wei Xiaodong and Li Mingliang, he briefly told them what had happened.

"Brother Li, Brother Wei, you can have lunch at the restaurant on the street. Hehe."

"Okay, then Brother Li and I will find a restaurant to eat. As long as everything goes well." Wei Xiaodong nodded in reply.

Chu Yunhao drove to Sanli Town Street. He went to the market to buy some vegetables, then bought tofu and eggs, and finally went to find a seafood market selling carp.

At noon, there were many people buying vegetables, and Chu Yunhao found the aquatic product market after asking around. However, the aquatic product market here was very small, with only two fishmongers shouting to sell fish.

Chu Yunhao looked at the fish at the vendor in front of him, and the fish vendor immediately greeted him.

"Young man, would you like to buy some fish? I have carp, crucian carp and pomfret here. Take a look at what kind of fish you want to buy."

Chu Yunhao took a look and found that there were only two carps in the big basin, with their stomachs turned upside down. He had no intention of buying the crucian carp and pomfret, so he just shook his head and walked away.

At another fish stall, Chu Yunhao found a live big carp swimming in a basin, so he walked up to buy it.

Chu Yunhao saw a female vendor at the fish stall, so he asked politely, "Sister, how much is this carp?"

"Grandpa, let's buy this live carp!"

At this time, three people came over, and one of them was a young girl talking to an older man. When the girl saw the old man nodded in agreement, she said to the fish stall owner, "Madam, how much is this carp?"

The girl and Chu Yunhao asked the question almost at the same time. The fish stall owner looked at Chu Yunhao in embarrassment, then looked at the girl. For a moment, she didn't know who to answer.

Seeing this, Chu Yunhao smiled and said to the proprietress again: "Sister, I want this carp. Please weigh it for me."

Under normal circumstances, Chu Yunhao would not compete with others to buy things, especially if the person on the other side was a girl. However, today was different. He had promised Grandma Tian to buy carp, so he didn't want to break his promise, so he was shameless.

When the fish stall owner saw that she would sell the fish to anyone, and when she saw that the young man in front of her was very handsome and spoke in a gentle and polite manner, she nodded in agreement.

The girl opposite saw this and before the fish stall owner could reply, she immediately said, "Madam, my grandfather and I bought fish from you last time. I was the one who asked if you should sell me this carp."

When the fish stall owner heard the girl's words, she held back her words that she was about to agree to Chu Yunhao. She looked at the girl who was talking and the old man, and felt a sense of déjà vu, so she spread out her hands in embarrassment again.

At this time, the girl and Chu Yunhao looked at each other, "You... ladies first, do you understand?"

"Girl, if you ask a question, I should be 0.01 seconds faster than you. This is not the same situation, so there is no reason to give ladies priority." Chu Yunhao retorted.

Chu Yunhao saw the three people clearly. An old man should be bringing his two granddaughters to buy fish. The old man was about 70 years old, but he looked very energetic. The girl who was talking was about 22 or 23 years old, very beautiful, and obviously from the city. Next to the girl who was talking was a girl of the same height as her, but she looked about 18 or 19 years old, and the two looked like sisters.

For some reason, Chu Yunhao looked carefully and it seemed that the two sisters looked a bit like Wu Yanzi, but only their face shapes were similar, and their appearance was still very different.

At the same time, the three people on the opposite side were also looking at Chu Yunhao. Especially the two sisters, although they were very dissatisfied with Chu Yunhao, when they saw Chu Yunhao's handsome face, they couldn't believe that there was such a handsome man in this country town, and they could feel the man's inherent cold temperament.

"Haha, unfortunately today, there is only this one live carp left. How about you two discuss it. In fact, these carps of mine fainted due to lack of oxygen. It will be the same whether you buy them back and eat them." The fish stall owner changed her mind and tried to smooth things over with a smile. Harmony is the most important thing in business.

"You...how do you know you were 0.01 seconds faster?" the sister suddenly asked.

Chu Yunhao smiled slightly after hearing this, "Haha, little sister, maybe I calculated it wrong, it should be 0.1 seconds."

"You...are making excuses. How about we let the landlady judge for ourselves? Who of us asked the question first?" the younger sister kept insisting.

"Okay then, let's listen to what the beautiful big sister says about who will ask first." Chu Yunhao replied in agreement.

The fish stall owner felt comfortable after hearing what Chu Yunhao said, but when she saw the murderous looks in the two sisters' eyes, she decided to just smooth things over.

"Ah, it sounds to me like you both asked at the same time. But as I just said, the carp here are also fresh, they just fainted due to lack of oxygen, so they are the same no matter what you buy. Haha, besides, the price difference is also very large. Think about it, the freshness and taste are almost the same, and there is still a big price difference, which is actually very cost-effective. Isn't it?"

What the fish stall owner said was in vain. Although I understand what she said, shopping is also about mood. There are live fish, who wants to buy dead fish?

Chu Yunhao saw that he had to play the emotional card, so he clasped his fists and smiled politely at the other three. "Haha, grandpa, two sisters, I'm going to visit an old lady today. I promised to buy her carp to eat. I hope you can give me some time. How about this, if you want to buy other fish or meat dishes besides this carp, I will pay for you. What do you think?"

When the elder sister who spoke first heard Chu Yunhao discussing this with them, she also smiled and said, "Brother, we happened to be visiting a relative's house, and we also liked this carp, so we also want to buy it."

Chu Yunhao began to hesitate. He didn't expect the other party to be so persistent. He made a lot of concessions, but they didn't compromise. Could it be that his conditions were not good enough to make them interested?

Chu Yunhao was about to propose other conditions, but he saw the old man who had been silent raised his hand and said, "Xiaoting, since this young man said so, we will make a concession. We will not buy this carp."

"Grandpa, you don't want to buy carp?" The girl named Xiaoting looked at her grandfather in confusion, with a reluctant look on her face.

"Yes, we don't want to buy carp, let's buy pomfret!" The old man pointed to the fish stall owner, "Madam, give us two pomfret!"
