Chapter 229 Business Opportunities on the Train

Zhuang Zhimeng nodded upon hearing this.

"I think the food tastes pretty good. There are usually meat dishes. Let's try the food on this train later and see if it's good."

An Qingbai took out the snacks and handed them to Zhizhi and her parents as he spoke.

"Okay, I'll buy some when the train conductor comes to sell food."

Shi Meiling and An Tanxiao both nodded happily.

An elderly woman in the same carriage as them asked Shi Meiling enviously.

"Hey girl, these must be your son and daughter. They're so kind to you, they even offered to buy you food for the train!"

Shi Meiling was about to sit cross-legged and eat sunflower seeds when she heard this and laughed.

"You're mistaken. These are my son and daughter-in-law."

"Really? I never expected it! It's actually your daughter-in-law. You two are so lucky, and she's so good to you!"

Shi Meiling immediately became smug.

"That's right, my three daughters-in-law are all better than the last."

As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and handed them to the old lady.

"Try it, this is cooked by my third daughter-in-law herself. It tastes completely different from what you buy in the market, it's delicious."

Hua Qizhen became curious.

"Oh? Then I'll have to try it. My favorite food is sunflower seeds."

Hua Qizhen ate the sunflower seeds very quickly, and finished them in no time.

Then clap your hands.

"It's so delicious! Did you bring a lot? I'd like to buy some from you."

"this…"

Shi Meiling glanced at Hua Qizhen and pointed to Zhuang Zhimeng on the opposite bunk.

"Ask my daughter-in-law. This is her property, and she can decide for herself."

Zhuang Zhimeng climbed down from the top bunk.

"What's wrong?"

"This lady would like to buy some melon seeds from you."

Hua Qizhen looked at Zhuang Zhimeng expectantly.

Zhuang Zhimeng whispered to Shi Meiling.

"Auntie, I think you can sell it to her. You can decide the price. We can use the money to buy food, right?"

“Okay, then I’ll sell some to her, one yuan each, one and a half jin.”

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finished their conversation, Shi Meiling looked at Hua Qizhen.

"My daughter-in-law said she could sell it to you, one and a half jin for one yuan, I don't know if you..."

Before Shi Meiling could finish speaking, Hua Qizhen took out the money.

"Here's the money, one and a half pounds, right? Sure, sure."

Shi Meiling reacted quickly, immediately putting the money away and instructing An Qingbai.

"Third brother, find a bag and put out a pound and a half of sunflower seeds."

"Okay!"

An Qingbai took out a brown paper bag from Zhuang Zhimeng's handbag and filled it with one and a half pounds of sunflower seeds, not too much and not too little. His hands were as precise as if they had been weighed on a scale.

Hua Qizhen took the sunflower seeds and couldn't wait to start eating them, while also chatting with Shi Meiling.

"Hey girls, where do you live? If I ever want to eat these sunflower seeds again, where can I find you?"

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into Zhuang Zhimeng's mind: a side business for the brigade. But she didn't say anything about it at the moment.

Shi Meiling pointed to her son.

“We’re all from the Anyang brigade. If you come again, just ask anyone where An Laosan is, and you’ll find him.”

"Okay, it's An Laosan, right? I'll remember that."

Zhuang Zhimeng deliberately took the chestnuts and was about to peel off the shells.

An Qingbai took it, peeled it open, and handed it to her.

Zhuang Zhimeng ate the chestnuts with relish.

Hua Qizhen smelled the aroma of chestnuts and asked Shi Meiling again.

"Hey little sister, these chestnuts smell so good! Can I have one?"

Shi Meiling grabbed a handful and handed it to Hua Qizhen.

"Eat up, there are plenty of chestnuts in the mountains, but these were roasted by my daughter-in-law herself. They taste amazing, absolutely delicious."

Hua Qizhen placed all the chestnuts on the table, peeled one open, and put it in her mouth.

Wow! It really is delicious!

Hua Qizhen excitedly walked to Shi Meiling's bunk and grabbed Shi Meiling's arm.

"Hey girl, you absolutely have to sell me some of these chestnuts. Whatever price you want, I won't haggle. How about it?"

Shi Meiling almost spilled the melon seeds in her hand, and glanced at Zhimeng when she had a moment to spare.

Zhuang Zhimeng quietly nodded to her aunt.

"Alright, same price as before, one yuan for one and a half jin. We're lucky to have met on the train. If you want to eat it again in the future, just come to Anyang Brigade to find us."

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll definitely be there."

An Qingbai didn't even need his mother to call him this time; he automatically packed the chestnuts and handed them to Hua Qizhen.

Hua Qizhen was incredibly grateful that she had taken this train; the sunflower seeds and chestnuts tasted absolutely delicious.

No one in the entire carriage was speaking; everyone was looking down, eating sunflower seeds and chestnuts.

Yangyang ran over.

"Third Uncle, what delicious food are you eating?"

An Qingbai grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and put them in Yangyang's little hand.

"Yangyang, let's eat together."

Well, Yangyang has been captured too, and is now sitting in a row with his third uncle, eating sunflower seeds.

Qian Yunshuang was worried because Yangyang hadn't gone back yet, so she came over from next door. When she got there, she almost burst out laughing. All six people in the carriage were eating sunflower seeds.

"Haha, Mom and Dad, are you having a sunflower seed eating contest?"

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and greeted Qian Yunshuang.

"Sister-in-law, take some of these sunflower seeds and share them among yourselves. These roasted sunflower seeds are really delicious. You'll regret it if you don't take them!"

"Hearing my sister-in-law say that, I really should take some. Everyone knows that everything my sister-in-law cooks is delicious!"

An Qingbai stood up, found another bag, filled it with some melon seeds, and handed it to his sister-in-law.
