Chapter 162 Three People
Hearing that they were selling meals at various construction sites, the boss thought slightly and made three more bowls of iced bean curd and invited people to eat them with a smile.
Aunt Fang knew what this man was planning at a glance. She was annoyed that she shouldn't have spoken so quickly, so she declined politely.
The boss couldn't help but be a little anxious and wanted to say something else. When he saw Jiang Anning reaching out and holding a bowl of iced bean curd, she looked overjoyed and looked at him expectantly.
This little girl has a soft mouth. After eating his tofu, she can no longer refuse his inquiry, otherwise... or she will have to pay!
Aunt Fang couldn't help but feel a little anxious. She stretched out her hand to pull Jiang An Ning's sleeves and shouted in a low voice: "An Ning..."
This old boy is obviously a weasel giving New Year greetings to the rooster, he is uneasy and well-intentioned!
Maybe he just wants to inquire about business with them, so he can go over and grab the business when the time comes!
How could Jiang Anning not know, but... this is the county town, they are doing business in the town, and the boss is not crazy. He is not waiting for a good and comfortable life, but has to ride an ox cart for an hour to compete with them for business. .
Besides, there is no need to teach if you are willing.
This was not a big secret in the first place. Even if they didn't tell it, the boss would find out on his own over time. It would be better for them to sell their favors and make friends now.
"Thank you boss for the gift. I was just thinking about asking for another bowl. Your tofu pudding is really delicious and relieves the heat."
Jiang Anning took two bites of the iced bean curd and praised it without hesitation.
The boss was praised a lot, and he was very happy: "As long as it tastes good, just eat more if it tastes good. If there is not enough, uncle will serve it for you."
For a while, I forgot to ask them where they sold their meals.
When he thought about it again later, Jiang Anning had already finished the bowl of iced bean curd, and he didn't know how to start the conversation and ask about it.
The boss was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head.
It actually made Aunt Fang happy.
Unexpectedly, this Douhua boss looks shrewd, but is actually a bit naive.
"Look at you, just say whatever you want to say. Is it possible that we three women can still eat you alive?"
Aunt Fang said, covered her mouth and smiled: "It's a good thing here, I'm so suppressed that my face turned red."
The boss scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "I just wanted to ask where you set up the stall. I, I also want to give it a try."
He looked around and saw that it was almost evening, and the sun was still hot and dazzling outside. He sighed: "It's not just a matter of fact. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and more and more people are willing to go out." When it gets less frequent, everyone basically waits for the evening to go down before going out for a stroll, taking a walk, enjoying the cool air, etc.”
"But you also know that our Jiang'an County is a typical place where it is hot during the day and cool at night. Don't look at it now, the sun is still shining all the time, but it is not good for people who are hot. At night, the sun only lasts for a while. When it falls, the wind blows and it immediately becomes cold. That person will shiver even if he doesn’t wear more clothes!”
"As a result, fewer people will come to our small shop to eat iced bean curd."
“It’s already very cold, who would want to eat something cold again!”
The boss couldn't help but sigh: "Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the business of my Douhua shop is getting worse and worse. I am really worried!"
"Just after listening to what you said, I was wondering if I could also go out and set up a stall to expand the customer base!"
"To talk about this iced bean curd, it has to be at noon. When it is hot, eat a bowl. It is refreshing and relieves the heat. Not to mention how comfortable it is!"
As he said that, he was afraid that the three of them would misunderstand, so he quickly explained: "I, I, I, I, I definitely didn't mean to steal business from you! Absolutely not!"
He scratched the back of his head naively: "You can't eat bean curd."
This is indeed the case.
They are selling meals, and there seems to be no competition with the one selling bean curds?
Jiang Anning said: "We sell meals at the construction site and dock in the town. We really don't know much about Jiang'an County. If the boss wants to do this business, he might as well inquire about it. Ask around where there are many people doing hard work around here. We really can't help much, but we just ate your bowl of iced bean curd for nothing..."
As she spoke, she made a gesture to give someone money.
Where will the boss collect it?
He repeatedly waved his hands and said that he didn’t need to pay: “I treated you to food, how can I ask for your money! Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a forced purchase and sale?”
With that said, he hurriedly got up and left. Before leaving, he pushed the other 20,000 bean curds inside.
Aunt Fang was so happy that she suddenly understood how this girl, An Ning, could be so unburdened and not worried about being robbed of her business. She ate the tofu puddings given by others.
It turned out that I had figured out the reason a long time ago, so I didn't panic at all.
After all, she underestimated An Ning!
As expected, he was able to support a family all by himself in those early years, and this young man learned how to make a living.
This brain is so clever.
It's a pity... Aunt Fang shook her head and sighed, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: It would be better if An Ning's parents could leave another son and a half to pass down the legacy of their old Jiang family.
With the help of such a powerful sister as An Ning, as her brother, his starting point in the future will definitely be good.
Maybe he can even marry the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.
In this way, An Ning, whether she gets married or not, she will still have a natal family.
I also have a natal family who can always help me with anything in the future.
Not so lonely...
well!
Aunt Fang sighed, secretly feeling pity.
By the time Sui Ran and I finished the remaining two bowls of iced bean curds, the sun had almost set.
The three of them bid farewell to the owner of the Douhua shop and squatted near the city gate for a while. They finally found a bullock cart going back to Ruian Town.
"You are in luck. Today, I am the only one traveling to Ruian Town!"
The uncle who was driving the car said very proudly.
"That's a good relationship! It's our fate! As the old saying goes, it's better to arrive early than to arrive late!"
Aunt Fang has always been talkative and can chat with anyone. In just a few words, she has already told how many people there are in the driver's family, how many acres of land they have, what the harvest is in a year, where they are from Ruian Town, and everyone in the family. What it does is made clear to Nagging.
However, the man who was driving the car didn't notice anything was wrong. He followed others with a proud look on his face, bragging about how great his sons were and how the wives they married were more capable than the last.
Aunt Fang happily chatted with people all the way, cleaning up everyone's knowledge, but she didn't reveal any of her own affairs.
When the oxcart arrived at Ruian Town, the driver of the cart was very kind and asked her: "Where is your home? I'll give you a ride on the way!"
Aunt Fang waved her hand: "I live here. No need to send me away. Go back quickly! It will get dark later and the road will be difficult to walk. Don't let the family worry about it!"
The uncle believed it, nodded, waved his cattle whip, and left without looking back.
When they were far away, Sui Ran couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile: "Auntie, your ability to talk to people and talk to ghosts is really amazing. You have to teach me some other time. I'm so annoyed by my stupid mouth!" Aunt Fang glared at her angrily: "It doesn't sound like a good thing at all to talk about people and ghosts."
Sui Ran quickly apologized: "Yes, yes, I used the wrong word. Then, aunt, please tell me, what should you call what you just said? I am sincerely asking for your advice."
"Sincerely?"
Aunt Fang deliberately touched Qiao, Sui Ran quickly followed the person's words and said: "It really can't be true anymore!"
"My move, that's called..." Aunt Fang deliberately let it slip and attracted the attention of Jiang Anning, who had a calm expression and didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two of them, but only paid attention to the surrounding environment.
The little arrogance in Aunt Fang's heart was immediately satisfied: "This is called being out and about, and the identity is all given by yourself!"
"Anyway, we are all strangers. No one knows anyone. Why do you tell so truthfully and in detail? But even if you are talking nonsense, no one will know that you are talking nonsense."
Seeing Sui Ran's shocked look, Aunt Fang covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Of course, it's okay to brag, but don't brag too much, otherwise, you really won't be able to make it right."< br>
Sui Ran was stunned for a while, and when he came to his senses, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Sure enough, ginger is still spicy when old!"
"My aunt, you are this!"
She gave people a thumbs up: "I have to learn from you in the future. I can't be so honest anymore and say everything to others! There have been several times when I didn't know how to talk. I really don’t want to tell the truth, but it makes me sad.”
"Then if I don't say anything, people will make weird remarks and accuse others. If you tell me, it doesn't matter if you listen to it, and it doesn't matter if you don't listen."
Sui Ran laughed: "From now on, Auntie, I will learn this trick from you, and I will no longer be afraid of anyone questioning me about something I don't want to say!"
Aunt Fang glared at her and feigned anger: "It sounds like I am dishonest."
"How could it be!"
Sui Ran hurriedly reached out and slapped his mouth: "Oh, it's all my fault for being stupid and unable to speak. Look, I said the wrong thing again!"
She imitated the opera in a very exaggerated manner and bowed to Aunt Fang: "I hope Auntie will be more generous and the Prime Minister can support the boat. I'll forgive you!"
Aunt Fang was so amused by her that even Jiang Anning couldn't help but curl her lips.
Sui Ran quickly climbed up the pole: "Auntie, you have to teach me from now on, and I will learn how to speak from you."
Aunt Fang was so worn down by her that she exclaimed and replied: "Yes, yes!"
The two people were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Just as he was about to walk into the village, Sui Ran saw a sneaky figure with sharp eyes: "Eh? Is that Zhou Ran from our village? What is he going to do? He is fooling around in vain..."
There is no one on the road anymore.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't find a suitable place to stay, they wouldn't even be planning to return to the village.
Unfortunately, during the day, An Ning suggested that if they really wanted to continue the food-selling business, they might as well rent a house in the town, which would save a lot of time on the road and allow them to sleep more.
At that time, she and Aunt Fang were both excited, but their hearts were moved, but they didn't have much money in their pockets. No matter how excited they were, they could only think about it.
"Zhou Ran?"
As soon as Aunt Fang heard the name "Zhou Ran", her face suddenly fell.
"Where is it?"
She looked in the direction Sui Ran pointed and saw no one except the empty, dark streets.
"Are you sure you read it correctly? Is it Zhou Ran?" Aunt Fang smoothed her sleeves, as if she just wanted to be sure before rushing over to fight with others.
"That's right, he's so sneaky, I saw it was him!"
Sui Ran was also quite annoyed with Zhou Ran.
What she didn't say was that before Zhou Ran approached Uncle Genshan, he actually approached her Jiang Guicheng first!
However, she always felt that the way this man looked at her made her uncomfortable.
But every time when he came to see Jiang Guicheng, he would look at her by saying things like "How are you, sister-in-law? Brother, you are so lucky."
It's just this discomfort that she doesn't know what to say or how to express it.
Have you ever told me that your husband’s family thinks you are a house disturber, restless, and heartbroken...
She didn't dare to say it, but Jiang Guicheng once noticed that she looked bad. She was talking to him cheerfully just a moment ago. After seeing Zhou Ran, she immediately lost her face and asked her: "What's wrong? Why do you feel like you are not happy to see Zhou Ran?"
She might have been a little angry at that time, but she didn't restrain her tone very much: "Why should I be happy to see men other than you? If I am really happy to see other men, shouldn't you reflect on it?"
After saying this, she left directly.
Jiang Guicheng was left alone in a daze.
However, after leaving, she quickly regretted it and felt that she really shouldn't talk to her husband like this.
But at that time, Zhou Ran was still there, and she really didn't want to be looked at with that disgusting and dirty look that made her very uncomfortable, so she simply didn't go back to look for him.
Unexpectedly, instead of going back to look for someone, Jiang Guicheng took the initiative to come find her.
Listening to him carefully asking her what was going on: "...Has someone made you angry? Or have you been wronged somewhere? You are not usually such a loser. What's wrong? Tell me, if you don’t tell me, how can I help you?”
Sui Ran was very embarrassed at the time. After squirming for a while, she said about the uncomfortable feeling Zhou Ran gave her: "...Am I too sensitive? Maybe he doesn't have any dirty thoughts."
She was really ashamed and ashamed at that time.
I wonder if I have done something wrong and there is something wrong with my thinking, which is why I have such dirty thoughts.
"Then he didn't really do anything to you, right? Did he bully you while I was away?"
Jiang Guicheng was very nervous at the time and checked the person up and down.
Thinking that sometimes he was not at home, but when he came back, he would find Zhou Ran waiting for him, his face ashen.
"I'll tell him to get out of here!"
How dare you miss his wife! Sure enough, it was the weasel wishing the chicken New Year's greetings, and he had no good intentions!
"I've long seen that this guy doesn't look like a good guy."
