Chapter 99 Don't Care
After searching through all the votes in the box, Chun He still couldn't find any extra votes supporting Mr. Bai.
I could only sit there helplessly, muttering that it was impossible.
The man next to him listened to the people's praise, lowered his head in shame and prepared to slip away quietly, but was blocked by Xu Miaomiao.
"Mr. Bai, the winner has been decided, and it is clear who plagiarized."
Seeing the sharp expression on the woman's face, the man didn't even look at her mouth, he could only lower his head and nodded: "Yes, yes, maybe I made a mistake, Madam Xu is right."
"Mr. Bai, you are wrong." Xu Miaomiao looked at the man in front of her and responded, "When it comes to making pastries, Miaomiao may not be as good as you. This time I won because my apprentice has some talent, but when it comes to being a human being, Mr. Bai is not worthy of the title of Mr."
Every word was like a sharp sword piercing the man's heart. Looking at the woman in front of him, he could only take two steps back and quietly slip away, feeling ashamed of his behavior.
"Xu Miaomiao, don't be so complacent. This doesn't prove that your Awakening Lion Pastry is not copied!" Chun He looked at Xu Miaomiao like a madman, and spoke with his eyes wide open.
"How can a person who can even defeat his own apprentice bother to plagiarize?" Dabao at the side looked at the woman and spoke bluntly.
"Madam Chunhe, is it so difficult to admit that you lost?" Xu Miaomiao said while standing aside.
Chun He stood up tremblingly and instructed Xiao Si behind him: "Come here, search for me, there must be something unclean in their store, I don't believe I can't find it!"
Upon hearing this, Dabao's hand unconsciously placed on the sword at his waist, protecting Xu Miaomiao and looking at the woman in front of him vigilantly.
"Master Chunhe said that we cannot argue with Madam Xu. Let's go back first." Xiao Si, who was standing aside, looked at the angry woman and spoke tremblingly.
Hearing this, Chun He's eyebrows relaxed a little, as if he remembered something and angrily said, "Xu Miaomiao, I won't let you go!"
After saying that, he turned and left.
Lan Yin jumped up happily when she saw this and hugged Xuguo's neck: "Yeah, Brother Li is so awesome."
"Yes, my disciple is really amazing." Xu Miaomiao also said, "If it were me, I might not be able to win."
Seeing that the fun was over, everyone dispersed, and Xu Miaomiao also returned to the store.
"Congratulations, Madam Xu." The old man with the candied haws walked in, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "The documents for the best store should be delivered this afternoon."
Xu Miaomiao bowed to the man and thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness."
After being polite to everyone, Xu Miaomiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the chair.
"Little brother, how old are you? Are you married?"
Following the direction of the voice, I saw Lan Yin staring at Li Yi with shining eyes and asking him questions.
The young man blushed and touched his head awkwardly, not knowing how to start the conversation.
"Lan Yin, stop messing around." Xu Guo, who was standing by, immediately spoke up when he saw his ignorant sister.
Unexpectedly, the little girl pretended not to hear and continued to chase Li Yi everywhere.
Xuguo was doing the accounting at the front desk, Li Yi and Dabao were helping to load the goods, with a clingy guy following behind them.
Xu Miaomiao lay on the chair, watching the scene happily. Every time she got along with these children, she felt as if she had returned to her childhood.
As the sun gradually sets, the afterglow of dusk gradually shines on the land.
The bleak crowd on the street suddenly gathered together and set off firecrackers.
The crackling sound caught Xu Miaomiao's attention, and everyone gathered around curiously.
The entire building of Zhang Zhang's hospital was covered with red wedding cloths. The man happily thanked everyone, but no one seemed to appreciate his kindness.
"Humph, we have no regard for people like you who use dirty tricks to seize the best stores."
The woman at the side took out the rotten vegetable leaves from the box and threw them at the man.
The man frowned when the leaf hit his face, pointed at the woman and said, "You rascal, I won this easily, why do you say that?"
"Everyone knows that you bribed the county magistrate to take the best store from Madam Xu. That's why we look down on dirty people like you!"
The woman at the side responded, and as soon as she finished speaking, vegetable leaves were thrown out from people's hands.
Xu Miaomiao looked at the man who was hit by vegetable leaves, shook her head helplessly, and turned away.
"Isn't mother angry?"
Along the way, Dabao looked at the taciturn woman and couldn't help but ask.
Xu Miaomiao just shook her head and said, "Bribery like Zhang Zhang's can be seen everywhere, so why bother about it?"
"But that best store originally belongs to mother." Dabao continued, feeling somewhat unfair for Xu Miaomiao.
Knowing Dabao's intention, Xu Miaomiao smiled, touched his head and said, "There are many unfair things in this world. Just be yourself and have a clear conscience. Why bother pursuing those unfounded things?"
Have a clear conscience? Dabao pondered these four words over and over again, firmly remembering them in his heart, and looked at Xu Miaomiao and said with determination: "Mother's words, I will remember them."
Seeing Dabao's look, Xu Miaomiao just smiled and said nothing.
Since changing to a horse-drawn carriage, we can get home much faster and everyone is happy about saving time on the road, except for the old cow in the shed, which was idle all of a sudden and felt a little at a loss.
"Let's make some dumplings tonight."
"Dumplings?" Gu Yuanniang tilted her head in confusion when she heard Xu Miaomiao's words: "What is that?"
"Sixth Mother doesn't know?" Xu Miaomiao was a little surprised. Is it possible that there are no dumplings here now?
The seed of doubt was planted in his heart, and when he saw Gu Yuanniang and Song Weiwei shaking their heads, he was sure.
"Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. We eat glutinous rice balls in our hometown."
"Your hometown." Song Weiwei leaned against Mu Zhu beside her and said incredulously: "Isn't this where your home is?"
"Haha." Xu Miaomiao smiled awkwardly: "I was talking about the past, the past."
Taking advantage of the two people's confusion, he quickly found an opportunity and turned away.
Since no one has ever eaten Tangyuan, she has to cook it well so that the children can have a taste of it.
Xu Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves and got to work, kneading the dough and making the filling in an orderly manner.
Holding the small meatballs in her hands, her eyes were still fixed on the black sesame filling in the pot. Today she was going to make some black sesame dumplings for them to try!
Xu Miaomiao had nimble hands. As the hot air rose from the pot, the white glutinous rice balls floated in the water, looking round and cute.
“It’s time to eat!”
Following her call, everyone immediately gathered around the dining table waiting to taste Xu Miaomiao’s new glutinous rice balls!
When several bowls were placed in front of him, he was still a little hesitant.
