In the morning they were so excited and confident to pratice: tai gui le, pian yi dian . But when we actually arrived in the market, they all fared and feel shy to talk to the sellers. Ljubormir was secretly asked me:“ Carla, HELP! I forgot how to ask price! Duo….duo..duoshao…..”“duo shao qian!!” I answered him with very angry accent, he was practiced very fluent in the class but now he totally forgot. “oh,yeah~yeah~e….ni hao, duo shao qian?” he stammer out to the seller girl, this girl was so shy to see a foreigner come to her shop, she can’t stop laughing to us and show her hands to say“20 kuai”. “20? Tai gui le！pian yi dian!” ljubormir was surprised look at her and widely open his large European eyes, “come on, ni shi mei nv!”, he start to begging her with sweet words to make her happy. “ni shi mei nv, ni shi mei nv……” ljubormir keep repeat to ask her lower the price, “10 kuai, 10 kuai, zui di jia.” She was keep laughing and comprised to us 10 yuan for the small Chinese accessory. Ljubormir, this salvia big boy was so happy and laugh like a baby, he proposed to take a photo with this Chinese girl, I'm sure this experience will be a part of his unforgettable memory in china.
