For some reason, Xiaoguo hadn't seen Li Zhaodi in the past two days, and she felt even more uneasy. She always thought that Li Zhaodi was pretending to be crazy, and was sure that her target was Qin Anming. However, in the past two days, she seemed very quiet and had been squatting at the entrance of the village. However, Xiaoguo still felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Sister Xiaoguo, did you know that the three stores you gave me are all run by the same person, Su Changsheng?"

Ruyi threw a big bomb, and Xiaoguo almost fainted.

"One person?!"

"That's right!" Ruyi took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to Xiaoguo. "When he heard that I was just running errands, he asked me to bring you a letter and didn't say anything else."

"Nothing?"

Xiaoguo took the letter but didn't open it in a hurry. He looked at Ruyi with amusement, "He didn't say anything, how do you know it's successful?"

She was so happy for nothing, but the boss didn't say anything.

"I made him popcorn according to the recipe you gave me, and he wrote to you after he ate it." Ruyi scratched her head, but her tone was very certain, "He must have had this intention, otherwise why would he write to you?"

Xiaoguo thought it made sense, so he decided to open it and take a look.

Ruyi was also curious about what was written in the letter, but as soon as she turned her head, she heard a dog barking in the yard. She looked up and saw Qin Anming coming back.

"Brother An Ming!"

Ruyi ran out with her arms open, just like the little bird. Naturally, she ignored Zhuangzhuang and Yang Jia beside her.

"As one wishes?!"

Qin Anming was curious about who had come home. When he saw the familiar carriage, he guessed who it was. Sure enough, he saw her as soon as he came in.

When Yang Jia saw strangers, especially women, he subconsciously took a few steps back and lowered his head.

"Hey, Sister Ruyi."

Zhuangzhuang greeted her happily, and Ruyi rubbed his head as a greeting.

A few people returned to the house and sat down, while Zhuangzhuang and Yang Jia went to the inner room to read.

The three of them sat at the table. Ruyi leaned against Qin Anming, looking him up and down. She couldn't help but feel sorry for him. How could he be so thin?

She just found out that he was sick, and she was curious. Sister Xiaoguo had come back, but Brother Anming hadn't come back yet. It turned out that he was sick.

Xiaoguo drank water while watching the two people's little movements. Isn't this more interesting than watching TV?

Ruyi hugged Qin Anming vigorously, touching him here and there with heartache.

Qin Anming looked uncomfortable and avoided her by moving to the side. Seeing that they were both about to sit on the ground, Xiao Guo spoke up and drew their gaze back.

"Well, the owner of Su's Merchandise Store asked me to meet him to discuss it in detail."

"real?!"

Ruyi and Qin Anming were both very happy, but Ruyi's reaction was particularly big.

"Ruyi, didn't you already know this would work? Why are you so excited now?"

Xiaoguo looked at the happy Ruyi in silence.

"No, Sister Xiaoguo and Brother Anming, you know, the face of the shopkeeper Su looks too much like this!" Ruyi gave a thumbs up. She still remembered what that man looked like. How could there be such a handsome man.

Xiaoguo and Qin Anming looked at each other. Seeing that Ruyi seemed to be lost in her memories, Xiaoguo and Qin Anming finally broke her fantasy after enduring for a long time.

"Ruyi, calm down."

"Sister Xiaoguo, it's true. Manager Su is so handsome. It's amazing that a man is so handsome. After I saw his face, I didn't dare to look up. I felt so ashamed of myself."

Ruyi touched her face, feeling somewhat disappointed. If she could use that face for one day, she would definitely seduce Qin Anming and make him keep hiding from her!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied and glared at Qin Anming who was standing beside him.

Qin Anming was confused. What happened to him? Why was he rejected even when he was just sitting?

"Alright, alright, let's get back to the point." Xiao Guo saw that the topic was going off track, so he quickly got back to the main point, "What do you think is a suitable price for me?"

Xiaoguo was a little hesitant. Popcorn wasn't sold here yet, so he didn't know how much to set the price, and he didn't have a reference price. He could only work together.

After hearing this, Ruyi and Qin Anming also started to think about it. To be honest, this thing is delicious, but a small handful can make a large pot. It would not be appropriate to price it too high, and it would be uneconomical to price it too low.

"Do you sell by pound or something?"

Qin Anming thought for a moment before speaking.

"Hmm...by pound."

Xiaoguo doesn’t know how to sell it either, so I’ll just give a simple price for now, and we’ll talk about the details when we meet.

Several people pondered over the price together, and finally chose a medium price, leaving two bottom line prices, in order to leave some room for bargaining.

At noon, Ruyi stayed for lunch, and after the meal, she was reluctant to leave.

"Brother An Ming, take good care of yourself."

To be precise, he was reluctant to leave Qin Anming.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. When Xiaoguo goes to the county, he'll take me with him."

Qin Anming said that his health had almost recovered thanks to Xiaoguo's care, but Xiaoguo was just worried, otherwise he would have gone to the store with Ruyi to work.

"Okay then! I'll wait for you."

Ruyi laughed and said that as long as she knew the exact time, she would go back and wait for him.

"Let's go!"

Ruyi waved to a few people, then drove away in the carriage.

After the carriage disappeared from sight, Xiaoguo and his companions went back.

Xiaoguo was walking at the end. When he turned to go through the door, he suddenly saw a piece of clothing flashing behind the tree. Xiaoguo looked closely but didn't see anything. He thought he was seeing things, so he didn't pay any attention to it, closed the door, and went back.

Two days later, it was the day that Xiaoguo was going to look for the shopkeeper Su. According to the letter, Xiaoguo was asked to meet in two days, which was today, at Su's Store, at any time in the morning.

Xiaoguo planned to go there as soon as possible. After eating and resting for a while, he was ready to set off.

Qin Anming is now completely healthy, and he has been busy for a long time. Yesterday, he chopped all the firewood at home and cut a lot of grass. At least Xiaoguo and the others don't have to worry about these for a while.

On the day of departure, Zhuangzhuang sat in Qin Anming's arms, while Xiaoguo drove the donkey cart, locked the door and set off.

There was a big bag next to Qin Anming, which contained the thick boots and the big leather coat that Xiaoguo had prepared for him.

"Uncle, are you sure you're okay?" Zhuangzhuang looked up at Qin Anming.

"Is uncle sure he's fine? Is Zhuangzhuang still concerned about him?"

Qin Anming was quite pleased that Zhuangzhuang knew he cared about him, and his heart was boiling with joy.

"No." Zhuangzhuang shook his head, not noticing Qin Anming's petrified look. "My mother didn't sleep in the middle of the night. She was wondering if my uncle was well and whether he could bear the fatigue."

After hearing this, Qin Anming looked at Xiaoguo distressedly and said, "I'm really fine, don't worry."

He was also wondering why the corners of her eyes were so red today, it turned out that she didn't sleep much last night.

"No, that's not the case." Xiao Guo was a little embarrassed. Fearing that Qin Anming would feel bad, she immediately said, "I slept well last night."

“Mother, you…”

"Be nice and quiet."

Xiaoguo covered Zhuangzhuang's mouth with her hand. Because she used too much force, Zhuangzhuang's neck almost fainted.

Qin Anming didn't care about Xiaoguo not sleeping anymore. He slapped Xiaoguo's hand away, then hugged Zhuangzhuang with heartache and rubbed his neck.

Xiaoguo was also very embarrassed, he almost forgot that this was his young son.

Zhuangzhuang lay on Qin Anming's shoulder feeling aggrieved, unable to understand why his mother lied. It was clearly her who tossed and turned last night, and he asked her himself, and she said that herself.
