Chapter 349 Bargaining
"This rattle looks good. The kid should like it." Xiao Cao'er said, pointing at the rattle next to it.
"How much is this?" asked the eldest prince.
"Ten cents each," the stall owner replied.
"Then let's have four." The little princess said crisply, her eyes sparkling.
"Do you need so much? Second and third brothers don't want to play this anymore, right?" Although the eldest prince said this, he still took out his purse to pay.
Finally, I bought four bamboo dragonflies and three rattles.
Several people continued walking forward happily, holding the bamboo dragonflies and rattles they had bought.
Not far away, I saw a small stall making dough figurines, with all kinds of lifelike animal dough figurines on display.
"Wow, this looks like a real little rabbit! And this tiger looks similar too," the little princess exclaimed in surprise.
"And this monkey is also made to look like the real thing." The eldest prince said as he picked up the monkey and looked at it.
"I am...mm." Before the little princess could finish her words, Xiao Cao covered her mouth.
"Miss, just buy whichever you like, or buy two more for your younger brother at home." Xiao Cao'er winked at the little princess.
"Okay, Your Majesty, no, brother, you tell me which ones we should buy." The little princess said, holding the eldest prince's hand.
The two siblings put their heads together to discuss which one to get.
"My second brother will probably like this."
"Does Third Brother like this?"
The two of them had been looking for a long time but still couldn't decide, so Xiao Caoer suggested, "How about buying a complete set of the twelve zodiac animals?"
"Okay, Aunt Xiaocao is the smartest, so just buy a set and take it back." The little princess happily asked for a set with all the twelve zodiac animals.
After buying the dough, Xiao Caoer walked on. He saw that it was time for lunch.
"You must be tired. Let's find a place to sit down and rest for a while." Xiao Cao'er said.
Qi Xingyun, who had been following behind, pointed to the teahouse in front and said, "Our teahouse is just in front. Let's go to the teahouse to rest for a while and have something to eat."
"Teahouse? Is it a place for storytelling?" The little princess' eyes lit up.
"Yes, the one in front is our teahouse. The storyteller is very good!" said Old Mrs. Yang proudly.
"Okay, Grandma Yang, let's walk faster." The little princess took Grandma Yang's hand and walked forward.
They hurried to the teahouse, which was bustling with activity. The little princess looked around curiously, and saw the storyteller standing on the stage and talking nonstop.
Qiangzi saw Old Lady Yang coming in with a little girl, and happily stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Grandma, how come you have time to come out today? Why didn't you tell us in advance so that we could go back and pick you up."
"No need to answer it, Xingyun sent us here." Old Mrs. Yang waved her hand.
Then he pulled Qiangzi to his side and whispered: "Two young nobles have come. Please arrange a safe place for them."
When Qiangzi heard that it was a young noble, he took a look at the little girl and knew from her clothes that she was not an ordinary person. He quickly led the two to the table closest to the table.
Because it is lunch time and the storytelling has not started yet, there are many empty tables.
As soon as Qi Xingyun and his group came in, they occupied all the best seats in the lobby, surrounding Xiaocaoer and his group's table in the middle.
At this time, Sanmao came back from outside. Seeing them, he was stunned for a moment, then walked up to Old Lady Yang and said with a smile, "Grandma, why are you here? You didn't even tell me in advance so that I could go back and pick you up."
"Why do you want to answer the phone? I came from Xingyun's house and brought two little guests to listen to your story. You'd better make sure they talk nicely later." Old Lady Yang said, holding Sanmao's hand.
"Tell them that grandma has promised them a reward. If they don't do well, then they won't get a share of the braised pork next time."
"Okay, thank you grandma. I'll go tell them right away. If they don't say anything good, I'll deduct their monthly salary, okay?" Sanmao coaxed Grandma Yang.
"No, that's not necessary. You're still deducting money. It would be bad if their family knew about it." Old Mrs. Yang was just talking.
"Third brother, let them cook some dishes and bring them up first. Our two little guests have come all the way here, and they must be starving!" Xiao Cao'er said to Sanmao with a smile.
The little princess blinked her bright big eyes and called out obediently, "Hello, Third Uncle~" It turned out that when she heard Xiaocaoer calling Sanmao brother, she secretly thought that she should call him uncle.
However, the eldest prince at the side did not call him uncle like his sister did, but politely performed a standard etiquette to Sanmao and said respectfully: "Hello, Young Master Yang."
Facing such humility and courtesy from the eldest prince and the little princess, Sanmao seemed a little flattered. He quickly returned the greeting while hurriedly saying, "I don't deserve it, I really don't deserve it!"
Sanmao glanced around and saw Qi Xingyun sitting quietly beside him, while Yun Yi and Yun Er were sitting obediently at the table next to them.
At a glance, it was clear that these two little guests must be of extraordinary status. Sanmao thought to herself, how could she easily accept the title of "Third Uncle" and "Mr. Yang"?
After everyone had exchanged greetings, Xiao Cao walked to San Mao's side and said in a low voice, "Brother San, please send someone to carefully watch the food in the kitchen. Make sure it is clean and hygienic and there are no potential safety hazards."
After hearing this, Sanmao nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, little sister. I will send Qiangzi to keep an eye on it personally. There will be no mistakes." After that, he turned around and hurried away to arrange things.
