Chapter 39 The Boy Who Sells Onions

"Look at that little guy is here again!"

"Yes, yes, he doesn't know where he got the green plants. They look pretty good, but unfortunately they can't eat them."

"Oh! It's not that I can't eat it, but I'm afraid that only the undead can bear it!"

"Scared! Where did the undead come from? Don't scare me!"

"I'm a metaphor! Do you understand the metaphor?"

Suddenly, a noise came from the front, and many people pointed at a stall from a distance.

Liya and the other two were also attracted by the people's discussions. Following everyone's eyes, they looked at the small stall near the exit.

After seeing the goods sold at the stall, Liya's eyes lit up: "Lilith, Gelfin, come with me!" After that, she ran to the front of the stall in two steps.

"Hello! What are you selling?"

The owner of the stall was a black and thin boy. The people's discussions were so harsh in his ears. From the time he opened the stall, his eyes never left the stone bricks under his feet. He raised his head until the soft and cute voice came to his ears.

The little loli with Yin Chitong's eyes was inquiring, and she was slightly panting because of running. Just like the warm sun in the cold winter, the dark and thin boy was a little lost in an instant.

"Hi! Hi? Boss, you are talking!"

It was not until his white and tender little hand reached in front of the boy and shook it that he finally came to his senses: "Oh, this is an onion, I grew it myself. Although... although it tastes not very good, it can be eaten..." The boy said the less he said, and in the end, he could basically only hear it himself.

However, Liya didn't care. She said happily: "Okay! I'll want all these onions in total!"

"Hey! I said, kid, if you haven't eaten it before, don't buy so much at once!" Before the black and thin boy could speak, an aunt next to him kindly reminded Lia: "You don't know that the taste of this thing can't be withstood by normal people. As long as you eat such a small piece, you can't stop crying!"

The black and thin boy who had just looked happy and suddenly fell off when he heard the aunt's words, but he did not argue. After all, what he said was the truth. If the customer bought a lot of money and finally started making trouble, he would not even have the qualification to set up a stall in the market. Thinking of this, the boy couldn't help but sigh.

"Huh? Have you eaten this aunt?" Liya asked curiously.

"I? I haven't eaten it before, but my neighbor Lucy has eaten it. I was watching from the side at that time! She couldn't eat it anymore after just half of it. You didn't feel uncomfortable! I burst into tears and couldn't stop it. In the end, they all fell out? So aunt, I kindly reminded you that it's not easy for parents to make money, so don't waste it like this." The kind aunt continued to persuade.

"So, can I ask your neighbor Lucy, how did you eat this onion?" Leah picked up an onion on the stall and looked carefully. It was not much different from what I remember.

"Uh... how else can I eat it? Of course, it's just like this! Can I still make bread?" The aunt was stunned by the question, but she still answered Leah's question.

"Puff~hahahaha~" Liya couldn't help laughing when she heard the aunt's straightforward answer.

"I said, "Little girl, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" The aunt looked puzzled.

"Haha~ That...hahaha~ Auntie, I...I...hahaha~ I understand, thank you... Thank you for your reminder! But I still...I want to buy it!" Liya finally forced her smile, but her little body shook slightly.

"Hahaha, okay, cute little girl, aunt, I kindly told you, don't cry when you go back~" The kind aunt was also infected by Liya's smile and left with a smile.

"Hahahaha~ Lilith saves me! Hahahahahahahahahaha~" Thinking of a middle-aged aunt with a back and waist holding an onion and crying while holding it, Liya could no longer hold it in, so she turned around and threw herself into Lilith's arms and laughed.

[This... this purple food should be fruit, right? Why does the lady laugh like this when she hears "eat directly"? Is it because I haven't gone out with her recently, so there is a...generation gap between us?]

Subconsciously holding her young lady who was about to laugh and fuck her, Lilith was confused. She had to ask for help and look at Gerfen beside her.

Gelfin: “…”

Finally, Liya, who had laughed enough, raised her head from Lilith's arms. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, walked to the stall and said, "Boss, please help me with the bag, I'll have it all!"

The thin black boy who had lost hope and sat there again could not believe his ears. He was afraid that it was his illusion: "What did you... say?"

"I said I wanted it all! How much?" Lea confirmed.

"1 copper coins, there are 13 in total. You only need to give me 4 copper coins, and one is for you!" The boy calculated quickly, with an unhidden joy in his eyes. The 4 copper coins are enough for his daily living expenses. If he endured it, he could hold on for two days.

The black and thin boy had no bags for packing here. Liya looked at the coarse cloth covered with patches on his body, and refused the sackcloth handed over by the boy. Instead, she asked Lilith to buy a small basket next to her, and 13 onions were just filled.

"I said, Boss, why do you grow these onions? Don't get me wrong. I'm just curious. It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient." Liya didn't rush to leave, but asked curiously.

The thin black boy scratched his dead head and replied: "It's nothing inconvenient. It was my father who brought it back from the southern principality at the beginning, but his father died of illness shortly after he came back... This is the only and last gift he gave me... Every time I see it, I think of my father..." The boy's voice became lower and lower, and tears fell on the stone bricks under his feet.

"That... I'm sorry, it reminds you of something sad..." Lea said embarrassedly.
