Today was the big event that was held once every three days. Liu Fugui's Sugar-Fried Chestnut was still exceptionally popular.
However, while he was collecting the money, a familiar face successfully caught his attention.
The black-hearted live-in son-in-law in the east room, Jia Ming, was hiding in a shop opposite him and staring at him.
He was not too surprised.
Jia Ming's home was originally in Yangping Town, and he had only moved to Baqing Village after marrying into the family, so it was not strange that he would appear in this town.
Moreover, he had been coming to the west room to ask around these few days. It was obvious that he wanted to sell chestnuts.
However, Liu Fugui didn't mind. There was still Zhang Ming, Li Ming, and Zhao Ming…
Jia Ming wasn't the only one who was interested in his business, so why would he care?
However, Jia Ming, who was in the opposite shop, stared at Liu Fugui as he collected large amounts of bills. His eyes were about to pop out.
It turned out that the silly fellow had brought so many chestnuts to this town every day to fry them and sell them!
No wonder the West House had been eating and drinking so well these days. Business was so hot. It was even faster than robbing money!
Jia Ming wanted nothing more than to set up a stall on the spot and snatch Liu Fugui's business away. This was way too profitable…
After staring at Liu Fugui for a long time, Jia Ming turned his head and raised his chin at the shop owner, whose eyes were also glowing with greed.
"Cousin, I have a profitable business here. Do you want to do it together?”
……
Because of the market today, there were more people than usual.
Before five o'clock in the afternoon, the chestnuts that Liu Fugui had brought for the day were used up again.
One had to know that he had prepared a lot of goods in advance. There were a total of 200 catties of chestnuts, but they did not last until school was over.
After closing the stall, Liu Fugui brought Xiao Yezi to shop as usual. After his careful feeding these days, the little girl's face finally had a rosy complexion.
The meat and vegetables that came next were even more important. He had to recover the nutrients that the little guy had lost as soon as possible.
They rode the carriage all the way back to the lower street. Liu Fugui asked Liu Chunliang to pull them back to feed them some food.
He carried the basket on his back and led Xiao Yezi home.
The two of them had just arrived on the street.
Many children who were about the same age as Xiao Yezi and were still wearing open-crotch pants surrounded her.
"You went to town again today! I have baked potatoes here. Do you want to eat them?”
"Xiao Yezi, I have some corn cakes here. They're delicious.”
"Wow, Xiao Yezi is wearing a beautiful flower today. Did you buy it in town?”
Ever since Liu Fugui started to pamper Xiao Yezi, the children around her looked at her with envy.
Even though the children would still feel apprehensive when they saw Liu Fugui on a daily basis, they were very attentive to Xiao Yezi, the 'little princess' who had different snacks in her pocket every day.
Liu Fugui naturally hoped that the little girl could make more friends. Every time he came back, he would deliberately stop by the street for a short while.
"These are the candies Daddi bought for me today. I brought some back for you, one for each of you.”
Xiao Yezi smiled as she received the gifts from the children. Then, she gave each of them a fruit candy.
The little one had a childish voice, but none of the children dared to snatch it.
After all, the other party's father was too big. His own father could not beat him at all!
The children who received the candy were all excited. They smiled and surrounded the father and daughter as they walked toward Half Street.
"Yo, Fugui 'er earned a lot of money today, right? Look at you buying so many things again!"
A woman who was washing clothes by the river heard the commotion and raised her head to greet Liu Fugui with a smile.
Recently, the tyrant of Baqing Village had suddenly changed his personality. Not only did he not stay in the village, but he also went out to earn a lot of money. When the neighbors saw him, they naturally became a lot friendlier.
"It's alright. I just want to nourish the girl's body.”
Liu Fugui lifted the things in his hands and replied with a smile, but he did not stop walking.
The woman who greeted him just now was still deep in thought as she watched him walk far away.
Liu Fugui, who had suddenly woken up, actually…seemed…not bad?
Although he looked fierce, he knew how to make money. Especially…his body was as strong as a bull.
She recalled that Liu Fugui jumped into the pond to take a bath when he was still in a daze last year.
At the thought of this, she saw the laundry stick beside her from the corner of her eye.
Eh…Just thinking about it made his ears burn…
Just as the woman was looking at Liu Fugui's back in a daze, a teasing voice suddenly came from the side,
"Aiyo, Guifen, you're a woman who misses men, right?
Could it be that she had taken a fancy to Liu Fugui?
Do you want me to go and matchmake you?
Anyway, you don't have a husband, and he doesn't have a wife. The two of you are perfect for each other!”
"Aiya! Aunt Wu, are you kidding me?!"
Zhu Guifen wanted to spit at the woman, but her thoughts were exposed by her. She was really moved. She rolled her eyes and changed her tone.
"It's not like you don't know how bad Liu Fugui's temper is.
A few days ago, he had beaten his cousin and his wife up until their faces were swollen!
If I follow him, what if he hits me?”
Although she was also envious of Liu Fugui's strong body and ability to earn money, she couldn't rush to pay him, right?
Not to mention Liu Fugui, who was a fool that the village had avoided in the past.
"That's because Liu Pannan's man accused him of bullying a young lady! Who would be able to swallow that?"
The women in these villages were all experienced. How could they not understand Zhu Guifen's little thoughts?
She immediately threw down the clothes in her hand and went over with a mischievous expression.
"I think the two of you are really suitable!
Why don't I go to Old Liu these two days to sound him out and help you two matchmake?”
Hearing this, Zhu Guifen pretended to be embarrassed and rushed home with the wooden basin, but her mind was spinning crazily.
Putting everything else aside, who in the village did not envy Liu Fugui's family for eating meat every day?
If she could live with him, wouldn't she and her son be able to eat rice and fat pork every day?
It didn't matter if they looked a little fierce. That way, no one would dare to bully them, right?
She didn't care if he had a bad temper. After all, which man wouldn't hit his wife?
Moreover, she had not had sex for a long time…
……
Liu Fugui had just stepped into the house when Jia Ming came back from the east room.
As soon as he entered the house, he pulled his wife out with a basket on his back.
Liu Fugui, who heard the commotion, knew what the two of them were doing without looking.
A hint of mockery flashed across his eyes as he continued to prepare dinner with Xiao Yezi.
He just wanted to follow the trend and snatch business. He had to have the strength!
……
The next morning.
Liu Fugui had just arrived at the wonton shop and had yet to set up his stall when Jia Ming and the boss were already frying chestnuts in the shop diagonally opposite.
The shop owner was even shouting at the side. One catty of chestnuts was 10 cents cheaper than Liu Fugui's!
"Come and take a look! Sugar-fried chestnuts, 25 cents per catty! It's big and sweet!"
The shop owner was a local on the street. He had asked Liu Fugui about stir-fried chestnuts before.
However, Liu Fugui was always perfunctory and never talked about the main point.
Therefore, his goal today was the same as his cousin. He wanted to snatch Liu Fugui's business so badly that he could not even sell a catty of chestnuts!
When they heard that the price was even lower than Liu Fugui's, many customers who had already walked to Liu Fugui's stall quickly looked over.
The shop owner saw a few familiar faces in the crowd and hurriedly greeted them with a smile,
"Aunt Niu, Sister Hua, come and see my chestnuts!
My chestnut is big and sweet. It only costs 25 cents per catty. It's cheap and affordable!”
The town wasn't very big, so when they saw the shop owner who they were familiar with greet them like this, those people were really shaken.
Those who were quick-witted even turned their eyes and looked at Liu Fugui.
"Boss, look over there. It's only 25 cents. The chestnuts are bigger than yours. Why don't you sell them for 25 cents too?”
She was already used to eating Liu Fugui's chestnuts.
If she could take advantage of the fact that someone was going against Liu Fugui, she could take the opportunity to buy more at a lower price!
Everyone loved to take advantage of others. When someone took the lead, someone else would start cheering. For a moment, everyone around Liu Fugui followed suit.
"That's right, boss. If you sell it for 25 cents, I'll continue to buy from you!”
"That's right, that's right. The one bigger than you only costs 25 cents. If you sell it for 35 cents, there will definitely be no business. It's better to sell it cheaper!”
Liu Fugui glanced at everyone with a faint smile. He did not seem anxious at all.
"It's said that you get what you pay for. My cooking skills are unique.
Moreover, my chestnuts have been specially processed. Isn't it time-consuming and laborious just to earn money?
Also, there was a need for both parties to be willing when doing business, right?
If you think that the food there is more affordable than mine, you can naturally go to the other side to try it!”
