Chapter 155: Tear Down the Wall Together



"Grandma, how could you lie to me? I told my sister you would pay me back. What should I do now?"

Ye Jin pursed her lips and said nothing. She wanted to see what the old lady was going to do.

"What else can I do? Please help me tear down the wall outside!"

"Tear down the wall? Grandma, it's fine if you don't pay back the money, but now you want to order us around!"

Ye Wei's simple little mind didn't react in time, but Ye Jin had already curved the corners of his mouth into a bright smile.

"Okay, then tear down the wall. You don't have to pay for the medical expenses. I'll give you 200 yuan instead."

Ye Jin took out a handful of money from his pocket and put it directly into grandma's hand without counting it.

"Girl, are you so afraid that I will regret it?"

The two girls' reactions successfully pleased her, and the old lady's face turned into an orange smile.

Ye Wei's reaction showed that she had no intention of plotting against her, and Ye Jin was tactful in responding and giving her money.

She had refused to tear down the wall before just to prove herself.

Now that I think about it, not all people are bad, there’s no need to be so stubborn.

"Grandma is a person who keeps her word. She will never go back on her word."

Ye Jin responded with a smile. Seeing her sister so happy, Ye Wei knew that this was a good thing, and she was happy too.

"Grandma, I'm going to wash the dishes."

Ye Wei went to work happily, leaving only Ye Jin and the old lady in the main room.

"Grandma, thank you this time."

"Don't thank me, this is all God's arrangement. If that girl hadn't happened to save me, I might have lost my life. Wouldn't it be easier for you to tear down this wall after I'm dead? After thinking about it, I feel that there is no need for you to plot against me."

Although the old lady was old, her mind was not confused at all. She saw the essence through the phenomenon and soon realized that the two sisters saved her out of kindness.

"I'm glad you figured it out, grandma. From now on, come to our store anytime you want for breakfast. I'll give you a 50% discount!"

"I made such a big sacrifice and thought breakfast at your restaurant would be free, but I didn't expect it to be 50% off!"

The old lady said jokingly, and Ye Jin had a smile on his face and his tone was much more relaxed.

"Free things don't last long. A 50% discount is the cost price. It would cost you the same amount to make it yourself. I just think you're old and it's a bit tiring to cook for yourself, but I don't have any bad intentions."

Ye Jin said seriously, and the old lady smiled and nodded.

"You're right. I can only eat free things once or twice at most, but I can eat things that are 50% off every day. It's tiring for me to cook for myself. I will eat at your restaurant often in the future."

The old lady figured it out, and Ye Jin was happy for her. Her breakfast shop hadn't even opened yet, but now she had a long-term customer. It would be hard for her business not to prosper in the future.

Ye Wei washed the dishes and helped the old lady back to her room. The two sisters stood up and said goodbye.

As soon as Ye Jin returned to the store, he asked everyone to tear down the wall.

"Brothers, come out and tear down the wall!"

Ye Jin shouted at the door, and everyone came out.

"Can this wall really be demolished? Does the old woman agree?"

The little yellow-haired man was in a hurry to get the wall demolished. In order to tear down the wall, he went to please the old lady every day. However, not only did he fail to convince her, but the old lady would hit him with her cane when she saw him.

He didn't expect that Sister Jin would get the job done with just one move. He was both pleasantly surprised and surprised, but when he thought about it carefully, it was within his expectations. This is Sister Jin's strength!

"I've waited so long and finally today..."

The two hip-hop artists hummed a little tune and started singing, and the atmosphere on the scene immediately became lively.

"Sister Jin, it still has to be you!"

Lao Liu gave Ye Jin a thumbs up. Ye Wei saw that everyone was praising her sister and no one blamed her for this.

She pouted unhappily and muttered softly, "You guys are only focused on praising my sister, I also have a share of the credit, okay?"

"Little girl, tell us what you have accomplished so that the brothers can praise you!"

The little yellow-haired boy who was closest to her heard her voice and said it jokingly.

"I saved grandma and took care of her in the hospital for several days. Finally, she gave in. Do you think I played a role?"

Ye Wei put her hands on her slender waist, held her head high, and said with great pride.

"Of course I have to. Without my sister Ye Wei, I really wouldn't be able to handle that old lady!"

Ye Jin was the first to praise her sister, and everyone followed suit and gave her a thumbs up.

Ye Wei's little face turned red with joy, and everyone finally saw her.

She quietly hid behind her sister and poked her little head out to look at everyone.

"Stop praising me! I can't stand it anymore!"

"Okay, let's get to work!"

Ye Jin waved her hand, and under her command, Lao Liu smashed the wall with a hammer!

There was a loud bang on the wall, and a big hole was smashed into the adobe wall.

The little yellow-haired boy struck the wall with his second hammer, and more and more people came together to tear down the wall.

The wall was already quite old, and after a few hits with hammers it was shattered into pieces like tofu dregs.

In one afternoon, the entire wall was razed to the ground.

Ye Jin directed everyone to transport the soil away, and some people stayed behind to clear the weeds.

After the wall was demolished, the originally narrow road was merged with the original alley to form a large road.

The sunlight from outside poured in, and the originally dark store suddenly became bright.

Ye Wei quickly turned off the lights in the store. She wanted to help her sister save electricity.

"Sister, looking at it this way, this store has a really great location!"

The store opening faces south, allowing plenty of sunlight to come in, but there is no problem of western exposure.

When the weather is good, there is no need to turn on the lights in the store during the day, which can save electricity and allow you to stay in the store and bask in the free sun.

"The location of this store is not bad to begin with, it's just that wall that's a bit of a hindrance."

Ye Jin looked at the progress of the store's renovation. If things went as expected, it would be completely completed in a week.

"Come on, let's go to the farmers market and buy some chili peppers!"

Ye Jin took her sister to the farmers' market and bought 1,000 kilograms of peppers in one go.

She also bought a lot of large sealed jars, and all of these were shipped to the store.

The stove has been set up and all the coal is piled up in the utility room in the backyard.

Ye Jin left satisfied and came back early the next day.

I'm not here to supervise today, but to make the chili sauce directly in the store.

Ye Jin found two people to help chop peppers, and asked two more people to help peel garlic, and the old ginger also needed to be processed.

Ye Jin bought chili peppers, which were very spicy. After chopping a large area of peppers, the rich chili flavor spread throughout the store.

Many people coughed due to choking, so Ye Jin quickly took out the gas masks he had bought in advance and put them on them. Only then did the people chopping peppers feel a little better.

Rows of cooking oil were placed in the corner, and before the store even opened, the chili sauce and preserved meats had already attracted many people to stop and watch.
