quail eggs

After school, on the way to the minibus stop, I walked past an itinerant roast chestnut cart where we can also buy sweet potatoes, salt-baked eggs and quail eggs. I always love quail eggs so I stopped and wanted to buy 10. But one of the hawkers told me that it was their last day to peddle for this season. Right, summer is coming and it's not the time for hot and steamy potatoes or chestnuts. He told me that I would see him again in September. He asked me to buy more on this very special last day. Sure no problem. Dunno what they are going to do in this long summer. Dunno whether they can find a job to earn a living during these few months. Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing them again in September. Please take care.
