Liu Yuting came to inform Zhou Hongyu and the other woman that she had rented a shop nearby to run a business, which also sold clothes!
While happily eating, Chen Zhaodi suddenly performed Sichuan opera face-changing.
What is the meaning behind Liu Yuting's actions?
Those in the same industry are mortal enemies. If you're in the same industry on the same street, someone who's nice to you and delivers food must have ulterior motives!
Chen Zhaodi suddenly felt that the tempting food in front of her had turned into a poison emanating black smoke.
Zhou Hongyu listened without any concern, ate a hot fried dumpling and thought it was pretty good, then asked her, "So you brought these things here specifically to show goodwill towards us?"
Liu Yuting breathed a sigh of relief: "We're all neighbors in the same alley. I figured since we're doing business in the same place, we could help each other out in the future."
Zhou Hongyu: Hehe!
Does your second sister know?
Are you really not afraid that Liu Yujie will tear you apart?
Chen Zhaodi glanced at Zhou Hongyu, then leaned close to Liu Yuting's ear and whispered, "Yuting, Zhou Hongyu is a cunning person. She has an old grudge against your second sister, and you still dare to come to her door!"
Are you afraid of not dying fast enough?
Although her voice was soft, Zhou Hongyu could tell what Chen Zhaodi was talking about just by looking at her gloating expression.
Haha, Chen Zhaodi is asking for a beating!
Liu Yuting smiled awkwardly at Chen Zhaodi after hearing this.
She's still holding onto the old grudge between Zhou Hongyu and her second sister? She's going to be ruined by Sun Yanxia!
Originally, according to her second sister's idea, she should first find a place to practice. However, when Sun Yanxia took her to find a place, the original shop owner made a few sarcastic remarks. Holding a grudge, she turned around and encouraged Liu Yujie to offer a high price to squeeze out the original shop owner and rent the shop from the landlord.
No one consulted with her before the matter was settled.
When Liu Yuting found out, everyone was dumbfounded.
Even if she's not very bright, she knows that controlling costs is crucial for making money in business.
She was a complete novice when she first entered the industry, and Sun Yanxia set up a shop for her just to vent her anger. Isn't that just asking for trouble?
She secretly observed for a few days and saw that Zhou Hongyu's business was doing very well. She seemed to see hope. If she could learn even a tenth of what Zhou Hongyu had learned, she wouldn't have messed up her job so badly and been abandoned by Liu Yujie.
People should think more about themselves!
“Sister-in-law Hongbing, what’s past is past. My second sister is doing very well now, and she and Sister-in-law Xingwang probably don’t want to talk about this anymore…”
Zhou Hongyu gave a playful smile. Oh~
She wasn't idle for the past five days; she followed Zhou's sister-in-law around and heard a lot of gossip about the street. Liu Yuting's shop was acquired in a dishonorable way!
Liu Yuting's shop hasn't even opened yet, and she's already offended someone. It's hard to say whether she'll be able to stay on this street peacefully in the future.
Liu Yuting's heart tightened, and she paused for a moment before saying, "I hope you two sisters-in-law will take good care of me in the future!"
After saying that, she made an excuse and left in a hurry.
Chen Zhaodi asked, "What does Liu Yuting mean by this? We're all in the same industry now, who's going to look after her?"
Zhou Hongyu looked her up and down, then said disdainfully, "You don't need to know any of this!"
If you cram too much stuff into your brain that you can't understand, it'll give you a headache!
Chen Zhaodi got angry when she heard this. In the future! In the future! When she becomes a boss!

Peng Xiaomei dressed up a little and appeared near the stall, pretending to be a customer.
She thought it would take some effort to get information out of her, but once she mentioned her age and marital status, Chen Zhaodi immediately grabbed her hand and started talking non-stop.
I will answer any questions.
Zhou Yao passed by, glanced at him worriedly, and ran to Zhou Bing's side to whisper, "Second brother, is this really alright?"
My sister-in-law is as unreliable as ever!
Zhou Bing quickly paid the bill, saw the customer off, glanced over there, and confidently shook his head: "Don't worry, Auntie's here!"
Zhou Yao sighed. Could it really work? She looked at Chen Zhaodi's passionate expression and was still worried.
When Zhou Hongyu returned from the restroom, she saw Chen Zhaodi arguing incoherently with a familiar-looking girl.
With a cold face, he grabbed Chen Zhaodi's hair and pulled her aside amidst the girl's horrified gaze.
Peng Xiaomei didn't know whether to advise or not: "Big sister..."
Zhou Hongyu released her grip, and Chen Zhaodi winced in pain. Seeing Zhou Hongyu's expressionless face, she belatedly realized what had happened and cowered, inexplicably grinning foolishly.
"This young lady seems quite nice. I was thinking of introducing her to Yaozu..."
"hehe."
After sneering, Zhou Hongyu threatened Chen Zhaodi and pointed at her, saying, "Get back to work!"
Chen Zhaodi grinned and ran back as if her backside was on fire.
Zhou Hongyu looked at the young girl favored by Chen Zhaodi and chuckled, "You look just like your brother!"
Upon hearing this, Peng Xiaomei changed the subject with a laugh, made an excuse, and left as if a demon were behind her.
After selling a few pieces of clothing, Chen Zhaodi turned her head slightly to look for Zhou Hongyu, but no one was there.
Turning around again, Zhou Hongyu was already beside her.
"Looking for me?"
"Haha..." Chen Zhaodi patted her chest, startled and breathless.
Zhou Hongyu's cold gaze swept over her, and Chen Zhaodi lowered her head in a cowardly manner, trying to salvage the situation: "I didn't tell her what I shouldn't have said!"
Zhou Hongyu would be a fool to believe her: "You, how would you know what to say and what not to say!"
"Ha ha……"
"We'll count twenty items less than sold today!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhaodi immediately became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"No! I promise I won't do it again..."

On the ninth day, business got better and better, and Aunt Zhou couldn't stop smiling.
The couple were kind-hearted. Seeing that Zhou Hongyu's stall was surrounded by customers, they placed long benches on both sides of the shop entrance and warmly invited customers who couldn't be reached to sit down.
When she has free time, she'll chat with him for a while. As a result, the dried goods store has sold a lot of goods, and this month's sales have increased by 20%.
That day, Granny Chang had something to do and sent a message to Zhou Hongyu, asking her to pick up Chang Meiying from school.
Zhou Hongyu picked up the person from the school and came straight here without going home.
Chang Hongbing and his daughter happened to be there at that time.
When Zhou Hongyu returned with Chang Meiying, Chang Hongbing and his daughter greeted her.
Zhou Hongyu nodded: "What brings you two here?"
Chang Hongbing, in particular, was the last to know about the day Sun Yanxia caused trouble.
He dragged Chen Zhaodi into the room and berated her. In the end, it's unclear how Chen Zhaodi handled the situation. In any case, although Chang Hongbing still had a sour face about the matter, he never publicly opposed it again.
Chen Zhaodi smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Yesterday I found a lot of men's clothing in the warehouse. I was thinking of having Hongbing come over and model it to see if anyone wanted to buy it. Zhou Hongyu, if Hongbing helps us, can we take a set of clothes back from here?"
"Why not? I wouldn't say anything even if he took two sets!"
Zhou Hongyu was annoyed. Although the clothes were free, Chang Hongbing had swallowed his pride to help. If she wanted the clothes, she could take them. Did Chen Zhaodi think everyone else was like her, so stingy?
Ignoring Zhou Hongyu's harsh tone, Chen Zhaodi said, "Two sets, huh!"
She hurriedly picked out the clothes she liked and held them up against Chang Hongbing.
Just then, a beautiful female voice rang out, and an old acquaintance appeared at an inopportune moment.
"Brother Lin, these men's outfits look quite nice!"
