“I heard that too, but something this cheap probably isn’t good. I’ve heard from young people that there are a lot of pre-made meals these days, and I don’t know when they were made. They’re cheap, but they taste bad and have no nutrition!” said Yu Mei, her good friend, standing next to her.

"Yeah, never mind, I guess I'll just have to find someone to dance with."

Shi Yi noticed that many people were looking at her and talking, but no one came over for a long time.

Then we have no choice but to activate Plan B!

She wondered if she could lure a few over with her scent this time.

Shi Yi lifted the cloth, letting the aroma of the food waft around.

Zhang Fengjuan, who was just about to go in to dance, sniffed, "The food smells so good!"

Yu Mei stopped what she was doing and chimed in, "I smelled it too, is it from that boxed lunch over there?"

Zhang Fengjuan squinted at the tricycle stall. "It looks like it. Oh, it smells so good! Do you think this could be pre-cooked food?"

"It's hard to say. To me, there's nothing wrong with the smell. It's just the aroma of food, but it smells better than what we usually make."

"Should we go take a look?" Zhang Fengjuan tentatively asked Yu Mei.

"I think it's a good idea. Let's go take a look. It's okay if we don't buy anything, since we just ate."

The two went over together.

"Little girl, your lunchbox smells really good. Did you make it yourself or did your family make it?" Zhang Fengjuan walked around the stall, and the aroma became even stronger, completely dominating her sense of smell.

"I made this myself, would you like some, Auntie?"

"Guaranteed fresh, guaranteed delicious, and the portions are generous."

"No, no, I've already had lunch." Zhang Fengjuan waved her hand. "I just came to check on things."

"It's getting late, and boxed meals aren't selling well."

Just then, Zhang Fengjuan's old partner came over and said, "Xiao Feng, what are you looking at? You dare to eat this ten-yuan boxed lunch?"

......

One sentence made everyone present look embarrassed, except for Shi Yi, who remained calm when she heard it.

"Old Li, you can't say that, can you? A ten-yuan boxed lunch is indeed a bit cheap, but that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the food."

“Maybe that young lady is doing charity work,” Yu Mei added.

Shi Yi was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

She just wanted to sell a boxed lunch; charity had nothing to do with her. As for why it was ten yuan, that was the rule of the game.

She didn't even have the right to change the price.

So we should cherish this ten-yuan serving.

Later, she wanted to upgrade the number of dishes first, and then upgrade other things. These two dishes were really too few, and no one was very interested.

Shi Yi was lost in her own thoughts and didn't notice that people around her had started arguing.

"What's wrong with a ten-yuan boxed lunch? People these days have so much money, they complain about a ten-yuan boxed lunch. If you're so capable, go eat a meal that costs tens of thousands of yuan."

"So what if I don't eat the ten-yuan boxed lunch? What can you buy with ten yuan? It might be rotten tomatoes and rotten eggs."

Zhang Fengjuan frowned and said, "How can you talk like that, old man Li? It's not easy for that young girl to sell boxed lunches. In this hot weather, you didn't even look at the food, let alone taste it. How do you know it's rotten?"

Old Li was indignant and said angrily, "I was just trying to give you a friendly reminder, why are you always criticizing me?"

Just then, another old man chimed in, "Xiao Feng, ignore him. He just looks down on us ordinary people because of his meager pension. He thinks he's all that just because he has a few bucks." (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
