Chapter 1310 I Want to Change My Mother (4)

Cherries are considered to be a relatively expensive fruit, but the street was crowded with people coming and going and it was quite lively. The cherries displayed by Li Shichu were large, red, and juicy, with excellent appearance, so not long after they were put on display, someone came up to ask the price.

Because the cherries were produced in her own companion space, she did not price them too high. Some people asked about the price and thought they were too expensive and did not buy them, but most of the people who came forward to ask the price later bought them. So soon, the cherries in her basket decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye. After more than an hour, all the cherries were sold out, and Li Shichu had more than 3,000 yuan in her hands.

When she left home, she didn't have a penny. The original owner's uncle and aunt even deducted her food rations, so how could they give her pocket money? Therefore, she was really penniless.

But now that I have some money from selling cherries, I can find a place to stay for the time being or just use it for transportation to another place.

Li Shichu suddenly remembered that the uncle's family that the original owner's ungrateful son envied and hated was in the capital. So she might as well go to the capital as well.

So she used the three thousand yuan to buy a train ticket and went directly to the capital.

Three months later, she had opened a fruit shop in the capital, right next to the community where she lived. Although the rent was a bit higher, fortunately she had a lot of rare fruits in the shop, which she sold together with the fruits purchased from the ordinary market. There were both high-end and ordinary types of fruits, and the needs of all kinds of customers could be met. Therefore, the business was very good, enough for her to pay the shop rent and rent.

In her previous life, the national situation was tense. Although she lived a relatively good life, she still felt some psychological pressure. She had to pay attention to the war situation, provide support to relatives and friends on the battlefield, and help refugees from time to time. It was impossible for her to be too comfortable and leisurely. So in this life, Li Shichu planned to live an easy life and just support herself. She didn't want to take all the responsibilities on herself.

"Sister, I, I want to buy some strawberries..." A childish voice sounded at the door of the store, and then a chubby girl about three years old, three heads tall, walked in, carrying a small schoolbag from kindergarten.

Li Shichu looked behind her and didn't see any adults, so he asked her: "Youyou, which adult in your family went to the kindergarten to pick you up today? Why didn't I see anyone?"

Youyou slowly turned around and looked behind him. As expected, he didn't see the adults. He frowned and said unhappily, "My uncle came to pick me up. Oh, he must have lost his way. He didn't even follow me closely. The adults are really disobedient..."

When Li Shichu heard her words, he couldn't help but laugh. It was so funny to see this little fat girl pretending to be an adult.

She rubbed her little head with two pigtails and said, "Do you want to call your uncle?"

"No!" The little fat girl immediately shook her head and said, "He will go home by himself." After that, she stared at the strawberries that Li Shichu had placed on the shelf. Then she put down her little schoolbag, and the little fat girl reached into the schoolbag and rummaged around for a long time before she took out a few crumpled banknotes.

"Sister, I want to buy strawberries. Is this money enough?" The little fat girl handed the crumpled bills to Li Shichu and asked expectantly.

Li Shichu took the bills and counted them. One was for 20 yuan, one was for 5 yuan, and one was for 1 yuan. It was enough to buy half a catty. So he said to the little fat girl, "It's enough to buy more than ten."

"Wow! That's great!" The little fat girl jumped up with joy, clapping her hands and smiling so hard that her teeth were showing.

Li Shichu went to get a dozen big, bright red strawberries, packed them and handed them to her.

The little fat girl took it and was about to put one in her mouth, but Li Shichu quickly stopped her: "You have to wash it first before you can eat it!"

The little fat girl was immediately in a dilemma. She looked at the big strawberries eagerly, wanting to eat them but having concerns. Li Shichu saw her tangled look, sighed, and said, "Sister will help you wash them."

"Thank you, sister!" The little fat girl was suddenly happy and couldn't wait to hand the strawberries to Li Shichu. Li Shichu had to get water to help her wash the strawberries.

When Li Shichu brought the strawberries to the small table, the little fat girl couldn't wait to grab one and put it in her mouth. However, her mouth was too small, so she had to take it out again, took a bite, and then squinted her eyes, enjoying the sweetness of the strawberry: "It's so delicious..." she sighed.

She ate several in one go, her lips and chin were stained red by the strawberry juice. Li Shichu wiped her lips with a tissue. Seeing that she was about to finish the strawberries, Li Shichu had to ask her: "Youyou, is your uncle so unreliable? Why hasn't he come to see you for so long?"

"Yeah, mom also said that uncle is unreliable..." Youyou agreed with Li Shichu while biting a strawberry.

"Okay! Little fat girl, I caught you saying bad things about me?" At this time, a steady and magnetic male voice suddenly came from the door, followed by a tall and straight man who came in.

The man was so tall that the entrance of Li Shichu’s fruit shop was almost filled up by him. The light was blocked by his figure, and the shop immediately became much darker.

"Uncle!" Youyou shouted in surprise, but when she realized what her uncle said, she felt guilty, "Uncle, I, I didn't say anything bad about you, it was mom who said that..."

"Heh, little fat girl, you're quite good at making excuses." After the man came in, he rubbed the little girl's head, then looked at her holding a half-bitten strawberry in her hand and said, "Little greedy cat, there are so many strawberries at home, why don't you eat them instead of eating outside?"

When Youyou heard what he said, she immediately said confidently, "The ones at home are not as delicious as the ones sold here by my sister!"

"How is that possible? The strawberries in your home are all top-quality fruits imported from abroad. How can they not compare to the ones at the entrance of the community?" The man didn't believe what his niece said at all.

Li Shichu was a little unhappy when he heard his arbitrary and arrogant words. Are imported fruits definitely better than domestic ones? Has he tried all the domestic fruit varieties? How dare he say that?

The strawberries she sold to Youyou happened to be grown in her own space, and she was sure they were definitely better than imported ones, so she said to Uncle Youyou expressionlessly, "Sir, why don't you try some of my strawberries first?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and seemed to finally realize that what he just said could easily offend a fruit shop owner, so he quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing."

"Uncle! You are so mean. Don't you always say that you can't post on Moments without Diao Diao Spring? You haven't eaten the strawberries here, so how can you say they are not delicious?" The little fat girl also criticized her uncle angrily.

Li Shichu was a little confused when he heard what the little fat girl said. What are Diao Diao Quan and hair bands?
