Today was much later than yesterday. Meng Qidi had just put the things away when many workers came over. Seeing that there were more buns this time and the price was affordable, they all bought one to try...
After a group of workers left, one third of the things in Meng Qidi's basket were gone.
"Are you the one who sold drinks and gave people a free sip yesterday? Do you still have the one from yesterday?"
A voice full of disdain sounded.
Meng Qidi looked up and saw a man with slicked-back hair and powdered face standing in front of the stall. He was estimated to be around 30 years old and looked familiar.
Seeing the ugly woman looking at him stupidly, the man was a little displeased, "I'm asking you a question? Are you dumb? Give me a tube to try. If it tastes good, buy me a tube."
Meng Qidi frowned slightly, "I'm sorry, comrade, it's just a small business. I can give you a taste, but if you drink a bottle, you have to buy it at the price of a bottle."
Being rejected, the man got angry and threatened, "Fine, if you don't give me a taste, I'll report you for speculation and capitalism!"
Being threatened, Meng Qidi was not a softie, she coldly covered the lid, "Speculation? Comrade, which eye of yours saw me speculating? If you have the guts, go ahead and sue me. Are you angry because you can't get any advantage?"
Meng Qidi's stall was already surrounded by many workers waiting to buy food. Her words immediately caused everyone to point fingers at her. Of course, she was just taking advantage of him. She was so angry that she was embarrassed...
The man's face turned red with anger. He glared at Meng Qidi angrily, then turned and walked towards the intersection.
"Sister, please sell your things and go back quickly. Ling Fugui is a vindictive person. He hasn't gone to the factory yet, so I guess he really went to report it."
A female comrade gently reminded him that his sighing expression clearly showed that he had suffered a loss before.
Someone beside him nodded, "Yes, this person is very petty. Oh, let's not just stand there, let's buy some things quickly and let the eldest sister go back. I want two tubes of yesterday's jelly. I brought it back last night, and my daughter ate two extra bowls of rice and kept asking for more."
When the worker next to him heard this, he quickly said, "Then I want two tubes too. Those are steamed buns, right? Give me two."
The workers gathered around, one by one, and I took two buckets. In just a few minutes, Meng Qidi's backpack was completely emptied...
As soon as the items were sold out, the workers who had not left yet urged Meng Qidi to close the stall and asked her to come earlier tomorrow.
Meng Qidi had no choice but to pack up her things and leave quickly.
In fact, there are still most kind people in this world.
She found a deserted place and entered the space, changing back into her original clothes. Meng Qidi didn't even take out her backpack at this moment, and went to find Ling Jinyue who was keeping watch at the intersection.
Before he even got there, he saw from a distance Ling Jinyue stopping and talking to someone. It was the person who had said he would report him.
The man was followed by a few fierce-looking men wearing similar clothes, who seemed to be members of the patrol team.
Fearing that Ling Jinyue would suffer a loss, Meng Qidi walked over quickly.
Ling Jinyue glanced at Meng Qidi who was coming over, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly let go of the man, "Uncle Fugui, my sister-in-law is back, I won't talk to you anymore."
Uncle Fugui? Ling Jinyue knew him? A trace of doubt flashed through Meng Qidi's heart. Lingjia Village was known as a village of lazy people, so it was normal for such a person to appear.
"Ling Xiao's wife?" After being dragged aside by Ling Jinyue to talk for a long time, which delayed things, Ling Fugui turned around unhappily. When he saw the beautiful and young Meng Qidi, he was stunned.
Ling Jinyue glanced at Meng Qidi's empty hands, breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly grabbed Meng Qidi.
"Yes, Brother Ling Xiao's wife, Uncle Fugui, and Sister-in-law are here, so we're leaving. If I don't take them back, Auntie will scold me to death."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took Meng Qidi and left without looking back.
Ling Fugui stared at Meng Qidi's graceful back for a long time and couldn't turn his head back. Didn't they say that Ling Xiao had a lame leg?
This boy is so lucky that he got to marry such a pretty wife.
"Comrade, where is the person you reported?" The patrol team next to him asked impatiently.
Ling Fugui came back to his senses and quickly wiped his chin, "Comrades, follow me!"
Here, Ling Jinyue dragged Meng Qidi to a deserted place, then let her go, panting, "You were the only one selling things there just now, right?"
Meng Qidi nodded.
"Sure enough, I guessed that it was the flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple! I guessed that the person Ling Fugui led people to catch for speculation was you!" Ling Jinyue's face was full of lingering fear.
"What do you mean?"
Meng Qidi had some vague guesses in her heart.
"That man is Ling Fugui, the uncle of Brother Ling Xiao. He is my biological uncle. Don't you think this is like a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple? Fortunately, I was smart, otherwise I would have been doomed."
Meng Qidi was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "Uncle, by the way, thank you for what you did just now."
Ling Jinyue snorted, "Don't think too much, I'm helping you for Brother Ling Xiao's sake."
"Yeah, I know." Meng Qidi chuckled. She thought Ling Jinyue would not call her sister-in-law.
Why are young girls nowadays so lacking in perseverance?
"Don't laugh!" Ling Jinyue stamped her feet in anger and led the way, "Let's go! Go find your man."
Meng Qidi followed. She thought the man was at most a relative of the Ling family, but she didn't expect it to be her uncle.
However, Uncle Ling Xiao is always greedy. It is normal for his younger uncle to report him when he fails to get the advantage.
"Just say that you are worrying about me being alone. Luckily I followed you, otherwise, you would have to go to jail."
Meng Qidi followed her and walked towards the gathering place.
The two met Ling Xiao and his partner at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Where's your backpack? Is there an accident?"
Ling Xiao, who was a soldier, was much more sensitive. The backpack was missing, so he probably must have had an accident.
Ling Jinyue looked unhappy, "Don't say anything, I met Uncle Fugui, he's like a psychopath, he brought people with him, saying someone was speculating and profiteering, they wanted to arrest your wife."
Everyone in the village said that Uncle Fugui had a bright future. Bah! What a bullshit! It was Brother Ling Xiao and his family who pooled their money to send him to work in the meat processing factory.
If we send her there, she will have a promising future.
Uncle?
"Are you okay?"
Ling Xiao looked at Meng Qidi and was relieved when he was sure that she was okay. He almost forgot that his uncle also worked in the meat processing factory.
"It's okay. The workers at the meat processing factory are very nice and helped me."
Meng Qidi winked at him and turned to look at the butcher shop next to her. "Wait a moment, I'll go buy some meat. Jin Yue and the other two helped us today. Let's have lunch together."
Looking at Meng Qidi's back as she went to the butcher shop, Ling Jinyue snorted, "Spendthrift woman, it's not easy to make a little money, but you have to spend it to feel comfortable."
Ling Jinming patted his sister gently, "Say less."
He was now afraid that his sister and sister-in-law would quarrel, and he would be the one in trouble...
Ling Jinyue secretly glanced at Ling Xiao beside her, and seeing that he didn't notice her, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "Did you sell the things?"
Yesterday, Brother Ling Xiao went home and brought a piece of pork. Her parents didn't taste that it was wild boar meat, but she tasted it. You want to hide it from her? Humph!
"Don't talk nonsense." Ling Jinming scolded softly.
Ling Jinyue stuck out her tongue. Why are you so fierce...
