Administrator Li cleared his throat and said, "New regulations restrict the sale of handicrafts with 'feudal and superstitious colors.' Comrade Shen Qiqi, those little tigers and rabbits of yours all fall into the category of 'feudal and superstitious colors'..."

"Little tiger, little rabbit? Feudal superstition?" Shen Qiqi almost vomited blood.

What kind of confusing rule is this?

How are her lifelike fabric animals related to feudal superstition?

She suppressed her anger and asked calmly, "Administrator Li, isn't this rule a bit too far-fetched? My little tiger and little rabbit are toys that children love. How can this be considered feudal superstition?"

Administrator Li spread his hands helplessly and said, "That's the rule. There's nothing I can do about it. It says that these animal shapes easily remind people of some...um...bad things." He was vague and his eyes were wandering. It was obvious that he didn't quite believe this explanation.

Shen Qiqi frowned, a surge of anger surging in her chest.

It's obvious that someone is behind this!

She turned to look at Sun Tongxing, only to see him hiding behind the crowd with a gloating smile on his face.

Good job, Sun Tongxing, it turned out to be you!

Lu Qing noticed Shen Qiqi's mood change, patted her shoulder gently, and whispered comfortingly: "Don't worry, there will always be a way."

Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and calmed down.

Now is not the time to act on impulse, we need to find a way to solve the problem.

Her eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind.

"Administrator Li," she said, raising her voice, "since I can't sell my handicrafts, I can make them on the spot! That shouldn't violate the rules, right?"

Administrator Li was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Shen Qiqi to make such a request.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Well...I have to ask my superiors for instructions."

"Ask for instructions? How long do I have to ask for instructions?" Shen Qiqi pressed on. "Every day my stall isn't open is a day's loss of income. You can't just let me sit there and wait, right?"

Administrator Li was speechless after being confronted by her, and he stammered for a long time without being able to utter a word.

At this moment, Qian Dipi, who was standing nearby, suddenly interrupted and said, "Hey, little girl, you're quite sharp-tongued! Want to do it on the spot? Sure, pay the protection fee first!"

"Protection money?" Shen Qiqi sneered, "I want to see who dares to collect protection money from me!"

Shen Qiqi curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a sly smile.

"Protection money? I'd like to see who dares to collect it today!" She looked around, her eyes revealing cleverness, and an aura of intelligence emanated from her.

"Manager Li, since you said my little tiger and little rabbit easily make people think of 'bad things', then I'll show you on the spot what exactly these 'bad things' are!"

Administrator Li and the surrounding customers were attracted by Shen Qiqi's proposal, and curiosity filled their hearts.

What is this girl up to?

Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi tenderly, and an affectionate atmosphere permeated between the two.

Without saying a word, he immediately began to help prepare the materials - various fabrics, needles and threads, scissors, cotton...

The two of them cooperated with each other tacitly. With just a glance or a gesture, they knew what the other was going to do next.

Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's love, and happiness overflowed in her heart.

Shen Qiqi picked up a piece of red cloth, and her nimble hands flew up and down like a butterfly flying through flowers.

The needle and thread seemed to come alive in her hands, and as she moved, a lifelike little tiger gradually took shape.

She stopped from time to time to explain the production steps to the crowd in a humorous tone, which made everyone laugh from time to time.

"This little tiger looks so cute! How can there be any feudal superstition?"

"That's right, this girl is so skillful, she made it look just like the real thing!"

"With this skill, it would be a shame not to become an embroiderer!"

The discussions around them grew louder and louder, and Administrator Li's expression became increasingly grim.

He didn't expect that Shen Qiqi actually had this trick.

After Shen Qiqi finished making the little tiger, she picked up a piece of blue cloth and started making the little rabbit.

This time, she deliberately slowed down so that everyone could see more clearly.

She explained as she made the dish, explaining each step clearly and concisely.

"This little rabbit has such a wonderful meaning, symbolizing peace and happiness..."

Uncle Chen stood up from the crowd, stroked his beard, and said, "I've been setting up stalls at this market for decades, and I've never heard that little rabbits and little tigers are feudal superstitions! This is clearly someone deliberately making things difficult for me!"

Uncle Chen's words resonated with the people around him, and they all nodded in agreement.

Manager Li's forehead was covered with sweat. He felt like he was being roasted on a fire, caught in a dilemma.

"Manager Li, do you have anything to say now?" Shen Qiqi raised the little rabbit in her hand and stared at him sharply.

Administrator Li opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

In the crowd, Qian Dipi and Sun Tongxing had gloomy faces. They had not expected that Shen Qiqi would be so clever and easily resolve this crisis...

Qian Dipi said sinisterly: "This woman is quite interesting..."

Qian Dipi and Sun Tongxing hid behind the crowd, their faces as gloomy as the bottom of a pot.

Seeing that Shen Qiqi was about to turn the tables, how could they let it go?

Qian Dipi's eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind.

He took advantage of no one's attention and sneaked to Shen Qiqi's stall. He "accidentally" tripped and his hand "inadvertently" swept across the stall, messing up a box of colorful silk threads, like a ball of spilled rainbow candy, scattered all over the floor.
