job transaction floor, so the customers order a lot. From the early morning,
her whole family focused on cutting off the tops of the chayote trees. A lot
more other customers wanted to buy tops
of the chayote trees but there were not any left. Therefore she had to collect
tops of the chayote trees from a few families. Although customers ordered a lot,
she still carefully cut each of the green tops of vegetables, which is good for
customers. Ms. Tuy said: The entire area of the chayote trees has never been
sold in the retail market. For many years, customers have come to the gảden to buy them.
