Keep it on your phone →星期六早上,安娜第一次走到市场。她想买一周的水果和蔬菜。市场里人声鼎沸,色彩缤纷。
她在一个卖西红柿的小摊前停下。“请问多少钱?”她问。桌子后面的老先生看着她。“是做沙拉还是做酱用的?”他说。安娜不知道怎么回答。
“做沙拉用的,”她终于说。老先生摇了摇头,指着一个箱子。“这些是做沙拉用的。结实,颜色好。”他又指着另一个箱子。“这些是做酱用的。软,红得发亮,甜。”他笑了笑。“不同的西红柿,不同的用途。”
安娜从每个箱子里各买了一公斤。老先生小心地用纸把它们包好。他送了她一个小柠檬作为礼物。“给你的沙拉用的,”他说。
回到家后,她坐在厨房的桌子旁,看着她的袋子。她觉得自己买的不只是西红柿。
