Chapter 11 New Arrivals at the Store



Sheng Laosan was furious. "It's simply outrageous, utterly vulgar!"

Xinghe stood up, arms crossed, "When Madam Ye gave birth to you, did she cut your head and umbilical cord together? Or did she forget to inform you when humanity evolved?"

"You...you!" Old Sheng was so angry he couldn't speak.

Xinghe: "Forget it, stop yelling at me. I've been afraid of dogs since I was a child."

Sheng Laosan's combat power is too low; Xinghe offers no enjoyment whatsoever.

The children in the village are all stronger than Sheng Laosan in combat.

Just as Sheng Laosan was red-faced and almost out of breath, the other Sheng brothers arrived one after another.

The brothers are all very busy, but the Sheng family has been in too much chaos lately, and their parents are not at home. Sheng Yue is worried about being bullied, and the brothers are also worried that Xinghe and Sheng Yue will have a fight, so they have been coming home quite early these past two days.

Boss Sheng had a slight headache. "What's wrong now?"

Third Brother Sheng: "What happened? Something terrible has happened. Do you know what people outside are saying about the Sheng family right now?"

The matter of the real and fake heiresses in the Sheng family has not been announced to the public. The situation is somewhat complicated, and they are waiting for Sheng Xiuwen and Ye Ning to return and make a decision.

Beijing is both a large and a small city. Basically, the top families share information with each other, and they have also heard some inside stories.

The young lady the Sheng family had just found was a Taoist nun, quite superstitious, which led Sheng Xiuwen and his wife to also become superstitious.

Boss Sheng said, "What others say is their own business; they can say whatever they want."

"Do you know that I got poisoned last night after drinking something she made? I had diarrhea three times! Today she gave Wang Ma another talisman. Right now she's only harming our family, but what about after a while? If something happens, will you take responsibility or will the Sheng family take responsibility?"

Sheng Laosan almost roared out.

The Sheng family has been developing honestly for so many years and has always had a good reputation. Is it really going to be ruined by such a wild girl?

His pent-up dissatisfaction over the past few days has subtly turned into disgust; he now dislikes Xinghe intensely.

"What nonsense are you spouting now? Even if something happens to you, my talisman will never have a problem." Xinghe stepped forward and grabbed Sheng Laosan's hand.

Sheng Laosan instinctively tried to shake off her hand, but as if he had been possessed, he couldn't move his hand at all, and his whole body was frozen in place.

Xinghe frowned slightly, looking at Sheng Laosan with a hint of disdain, "You're really poisoned."

"I knew it!"

Xinghe: "What are you howling about? If you have no brains, shut up. You didn't even know someone put croton on you. I'm really curious how you grew to be so big."

Croton is a common laxative. Luckily, Sheng Laosan didn't eat much, otherwise, would he still be standing here full of energy? Dream on.

"Let go of me! Last night I only drank that mess you made, who else could it be but you?"

I was planning to have a couple of drinks at the bar, but I left in a huff before I even had a chance to drink.

Xinghe: "Who knows you? You're so annoying, it's normal for you to have a couple of enemies who can't stand you."

"You wild girl!"

Xinghe raised her eyes, a layer of coldness appearing in her kitten-like eyes. "Third Brother Sheng, I don't have a good temper."

"We're all family, what's all this fuss about?" Sheng Laowu said with a smile in his eyes, pulling Sheng Laosan away. "And you, your sister finally came back, what are you doing?"

Sheng Laosan was pulled away by Sheng Laowu and Sheng Laosi.

Sheng Lao Er glanced at Xinghe and then left as well.

Sheng Lao Si walked over and asked, "Is Lao San really poisoned?"

Xinghe bent down, busy with her own things. "I'm not a doctor, why are you asking me?"

Believe it or not, it's up to you.

Okay, Xinghe has successfully driven one away again.

Her big pot of food was almost done. To make things easier, Xinghe used a large iron pot to stir-fry a big pot of egg fried rice and a pot of stew.

Despite its unappealing appearance, it tastes great, and it's made by Xinghe himself.

A whole pot of fried rice suddenly disappeared, which is a little too much, so I'll just take it back to my room and put it back on the store.

Xinghe bent down, just about to lift a large pot, when Sheng Laowu's voice came from behind him.

"Little sister." Sheng Laowu walked over with a smile, his red hair dazzling. He squatted down in front of Xinghe, "Why did you cook so much rice?"

"I have a big appetite."

"Haha, little sister, you're really funny. Even a glutton couldn't eat this much."

Sheng Laowu leaned closer and lowered his voice, "Little sister, tell me honestly. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."

Xinghe glanced at Sheng Laowu, then leaned over and lowered his voice, "Actually, these are for ghosts to eat."

The smile on Sheng Laowu's lips froze, and his laughter became dry. "This joke isn't funny at all."

Xinghe: See? Nobody believes the truth.

She changed the subject, saying, "Just kidding."

"I knew it!" Sheng Laowu smiled again and happily followed Xinghe.

Seeing Xinghe bend down to pick up the large pot, he quickly said, "Sister, put it over there, I'll do it—"

Before he could finish speaking, Xinghe easily lifted herself up and gave him a puzzled look, as if asking, "Is something wrong?"

Sheng Laowu: ...

This pot, including the rice inside, must weigh at least 60 or 70 pounds, right? This is one of those big iron pots used on a stove, and she lifted it up so easily?

Sheng Laowu refused to believe it. He walked towards the pot full of vegetables, squatted down, took a deep breath, and with all his might, stood up! stood up! stood up!

His face turned red, but he only managed to lift the large iron pot off the ground for two seconds.

Xinghe looked at him questioningly for two seconds, then said, "Take your time playing. I'm leaving now. Be careful not to spill anything."

Sheng Laowu: ...

A major defense was breached.

Xinghe divided the fried rice and stew into a thousand portions, each portion being a small two-bite serving.

There was no other way; there were too many ghosts, and she couldn't handle them all. She had to come up with a solution.

Her gaze slowly shifted to the boy and girl playing with building blocks.

The two, puzzled but impressed, looked at Xinghe, tilted their heads at her, and whispered, "Sister?"

Galaxy: ...

Well, one should still have some moral bottom line.

"It's okay, you guys can play."

The golden couple had no idea that they had escaped a disaster.

As soon as Xinghe's shop launched its new products, the underworld was thrown into turmoil. Old ghosts, new ghosts, male ghosts, and female ghosts all clicked on the shop, causing a rare slight lag.

The next second, the store displayed a message: "[The item you clicked is sold out. Please try again next time.]"

"Who is it?!"

"In a fraction of a second, you were staying at her shop?"

"I'm really about to die, please give me a copy, I'm willing to give you a thousand merit points."

"The streamer is so stingy, is this little bit enough to even fill someone's teeth?"

Someone nearby took a picture of it, and the next second a palm-sized plate of fried rice and a large pot of stew appeared in front of him.
