Accepting her money, he pushed a quill and a piece of parchment in her direction. "From everything that's here..." Meaning the hints she may or may not have heard..."...the total is down five eggs."...because crazy lady wanted to buy them as is...and not guess. Totally ruining the spirit of what he and Odessa had going.
"Five less. Alright." Lucia picked up the quill and nodded at the boy with he sweet smile, the one that wasn't deathly thin. A guess now? She considered all the hints she'd overheard and tried to think of one. Less than 100, more than the number of children there (how many WERE there, though? She tried to count, but gave up soon enough). And it had to be odd, but now it had to be even, didn't it? Because it was five less, she knew.

Well. Well, okay. The elderly lady bent down and scribbled three numbers on the parchment. 44, 48, and 40. They were probably wrong and a total waste of thirteen sickles, but it was okay, because it'd feed that poor little skinny thing.
