Passage 2
“Do you want to go to the wet market with me?” Mrs Fong asked her daughter. “Yes!” Ling Ling replied enthusiastically. Her mother smiled. She was pleased that that Ling Ling could accompany her there as she intended to buy many things and could do with an extra pair of hands. Ling Ling quickly changed into a faded T-shirt and a pair of old jeans and they were soon out of the house.
After a brisk walk, they reached their destination. As it was a Sunday morning, the wet market was a hive of activity. People were jostling their way through the crowded place and customers were busy haggling over prices. A large variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, poultry and meat were on display.
“Juicy mangoes from the Philippines! Special offer! Today only!” called the fruit seller invitingly. “Mum, shall we get some?” Ling Ling suggested. Mrs Fong nodded. After choosing a few mangoes. she bargained expertly with the food seller and managed to get a good discount. Then, they proceeded to the other stalls.
