Chapter 921: Stamp card

Thus, Song Zhi lowered his head and then took a bite of the slice which was offered by Xie Yating. But as soon as the sweet and tangy juice with a hint of freshness and dew flooded inside his mouth, Song Zhi immediately picked up another slice of tomato and then another before he knew it he almost finished the entire bowl which held the sweet tomato slices.         

Unlike Song Zhi, little Xie Yating was savouring each bite when she saw that the bowl was almost empty, she turned to look at Song Zhi and cried, " Daddy Zhi! You ate all the tomato slices!"      

When Song Zhi heard Xie Yating's voice he snapped out of his daze and looked at the almost empty bowl and was slightly embarrassed. What happened to him? These tomato slices only had a bit of salt sprinkled on them so why was he eating these slices like they were the finest delicacy?      

Was he possessed by a hungry ghost or something?      

Though he was embarrassed, he did not have the time to feel embarrassed since the little ancestor was crying tears of anguish. He immediately turned to look at Xie Yating and then said, " Don't cry, little Ting. I will buy some for you, all right?"      

" Really? Are you going to buy these tomatoes?" Xie Yating asked, one could not blame her for acting suspiciously, she just heard Song Zhi say that he was not going to buy anything from this shop and wanted to leave.      

" Of course!" Song Zhi did not have the guts to make this little ancestor cry and what was more the tomatoes were indeed good. This time when he looked at Yu Dong he was a bit more polite as he said, " Please give me half a catty of these tomatoes." As he spoke he looked at the crushed cucumbers and was surprised to find that Yu Dong was also selling spinach and mountain vegetables, on the side he could even see some colourful bell peppers and chives with white radishes and cucumbers.     

How the hell was she selling eggplants, turnips and lettuce in such cold weather and what was more those vegetables looked like they were freshly brought from the garden.      

Can they be grown in such weather?      

And even if they could be grown, was it all right for them to look so alluringly fresh?      

He thought for a while and then asked, " Young Master, how are you selling the cucumbers, eggplants and lettuce for?" He wanted to buy chives and garlic as well but Song Zhi was not carrying that much money with him.      

Chen Mi saw that the mer was willing to buy and thus smiled as he pointed to each vegetable and then said, " The cucumbers are two taels half a catty similar to tomatoes, while a head of lettuce is three taels and as for eggplants they are three taels half a catty … but we will give you some chillies free if you buy the eggplants and spinach together, just so you know spinach is two taels and hundred copper coins half a catty."     

Song Zhi's eyes could not help but widen as he heard the prices and then exclaimed, " Your vegetables are not cheap at all!"      

He was incredulous that these vegetables were selling at a price which he had not expected! What was more they were even more expensive than meat!      

Ye Liu looked at the incredulous expression of the young mer and then explained out of courtesy, " That is for sure, we grow our vegetables without any external help. Even the fertilisers which we use are something that you cannot find in the market, have you ever seen any vegetable vendor selling such big vegetables? What's more our family does not make any compromises with the quality, no matter which vegetable you buy, you will get the same quality as that of the tomato which you ate."      

When Song Zhi heard Ye Liu's words he had to admit that the vegetables which were being sold by this family were indeed bigger and fresher than the ones which were being sold outside in the market.      

He thought of his wife and the official husband who was pregnant with a child, truth be spoken his wife was yet to grace him with her affection even though they were married and he was more of a nanny for the official husband. These days the official husband often complain that he could not stomach anything—— and because he was the one who was cooking, his wife scolded him for not taking care of her husband.      

But the truth was that the official husband was just tired of eating meat and as he was pregnant he could not eat a lot of meat all the time. However, Song Zhi was also in a pinch, he could not find a vendor who was selling decent vegetables if not he would not have come out today to look for vegetables in such cold weather.      

Maybe if he was to buy these vegetables and cook a decent meal, then he might be able to please both the official husband and his wife. If that happens then he will also get the attention of his wife!      

With that Song Zhi gritted his teeth and then said, " All right, Mister please give me half a catty of tomatoes, half a catty of spinach and eggplants and please add some cucumbers as well."      

Though his heart was bleeding since he was taking out this money from his own pockets, Song Zhi still thought that it was worth it as long as he could get a firm foothold in his wife's house.      

" Sure," Ye Liu heard his order and then turned to look at Fang Chi who packed the vegetables in a small cloth bag that had the words —— ' Bo and Bun shop,' written on it and then handed it to Ye Liu, who counted the vegetables and then made the bill as he handed it to Song Zhi who was surprised by his actions.     

"What's this?" He asked as he looked at the neatly written handwriting.     

"It's a bill, young master. Like I said, our family focuses on nothing but quality and satisfaction of the customer, as long as you have this bill and there is an issue with the quality of vegetables you can always come back and exchange it with another set," he then took out a small card which had stamps spots on it and first pressed a stamp on it before handing it to Song Zhi. " And this is a stamp card as long as you fill out the card, you will receive a gift at the end of this month."      

He then took the chillies and cilantro which were added gifts and placed them inside the bag before handing it to Song Zhi and saying," That will be nine taels and five hundred coins but since you are our first customer we will knock off the five hundred coins."
