"Bai doll, your family is quite wealthy, isn't it? Didn't your parents give you some copper coins to buy something to eat?"
Bai Lingmiao shifted her gaze from the flowered copper hairpin on the peddler's tray, "No, in the village, you can't buy things with money."
The peddler slapped his forehead with regret, forgetting that this shabby place wasn't a county town and that money couldn't be spent. This girl definitely doesn't have a single coin on her.
"Then... what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and call your parents, let them come buy you some candy."
"My parents are out on errands, and I'm staying with my aunt with my brother."
"Hey, what a waste of effort." The peddler didn't bother with the Bai girl anymore, sitting down by the tree root and drinking from his gourd water bottle.
Bai Lingmiao seemed to really want that hairpin, but she didn't do anything, just stood there obediently watching, as if enjoying every extra glance.
