"Comrade Xia Lan is absolutely right, it looks so much better this way, I want to buy one!"
The young women present were all deeply moved, imagining what it would be like to wear the dress.
"Wow!! My rainbow candy!!" Just as everyone was captivated by the charm of the new dress, the familiar innocent laughter of a child rang out.
Xia Lan quickly returned to her counter, and the child became even more excited when he saw her.
"You're the auntie who sells me rainbow candy!!" the little boy exclaimed excitedly, recognizing Xia Lan.
"Mommy, buy me rainbow candy, I promise I'll be good, good mommy~" The little boy turned around and hugged his mother. Hearing his words, the woman nodded happily.
“Okay, Mom will buy it for you.” The woman walked to the counter.
Seeing Xia Lan, he smiled sincerely. "Comrade, we meet again. I really thank you for last time. If you hadn't said those things to Da Bao, Da Bao wouldn't have accepted me."
She had been trying to find her, but the candy counter had changed hands since then, and she had never been able to find Xia Lan. She owed her a thank you.
"I'm glad I could help you!" Xia Lan was happy for the woman as she saw how happy she was.
“Ever since I married his father, Da Bao has been very hostile towards me. I thought that if I treated him well, he would accept me, but who knew that he would be even more unwilling to accept me.”
“I don’t know where the problem lies. Who would have thought it was his maternal grandmother who instigated it? After I went back, I told his father, and Da Bao stopped going to his maternal grandmother’s place.”
"Our relationship has improved a lot recently, thank you so much for reminding me that day."
The woman took out her money and tickets and bought the rainbow hard candy the child wanted. The little boy turned around and chose a red candy for the woman.
"Mom, you eat," the little boy said happily.
"Thank you, baby." The woman happily ate the food, patted his head, and took his hand to go home.
Seeing the two holding hands, just like a mother and son, Xia Lan was happy for them and also happy for the little boy, that he had such a good new mother to him.
Xia Lan chuckled. In the following time, the resurgence of rainbow candy was noticed by the children as soon as they entered the door, and Xia Lan was busy without stopping for a moment.
Everyone was very happy to see Xia Lan, and they all missed her rainbow candies.
“You said they are all the same candy, but the kids love your rainbow candy. They were happy for a long time after they got home.”
"Later, when we ran out of candy, we wanted to buy more, but then a woman changed the staff at your counter, and the rainbow candy was gone too. My child has been unhappy every day and has been nagging you for almost half a month."
"Well, I had no choice but to bring him here again today. Luckily, I saw you again!"
An elderly woman grabbed Xia Lan's hand excitedly and began to complain.
During Xia Lan's absence, these parents were driven crazy by their child.
It was the same candy, but the child wasn't happy eating it at all.
"Thank you." Xia Lan would be lying if she said she wasn't happy to hear them say that.
At the end of the day, Xia Lan didn't feel tired at all; on the contrary, she felt particularly fulfilled.
When it was time to leave work, Xia Lan was tidying up her counter so that it could still be just as cute and pretty tomorrow.
When Qin Yu got home from get off work and didn't see anyone, he thought his wife was missing and rushed out to look for her.
Turning around, Qin Yu saw Xia Lan still tidying up at the counter, so he silently went over to help her.
Xia Lan glanced at Qin Yu, and after the two finished tidying up the counter, they went home together.
After cleaning up the food counter, Zhao Li, whose hands were still covered in oil, heard someone say that Xia Lan's man had come to pick her up again. She quickly ran out, only to see Xia Lan and Qin Yu leaving. She stomped her foot in frustration.
As Sister Yang passed by Zhao Li, she chuckled. "What? You've taken a fancy to Xia Lan's husband? You're in such a hurry to come out."
“…” Zhao Li gritted her teeth and went back to the deli counter.
The image of Qin Yu that she saw that morning kept replaying in her mind. It was the first time Zhao Li had ever felt a spark of attraction, but the man she fell for turned out to be Xia Lan's husband, whom she hated the most.
Zhao Li returned home in a huff, only to be met with her mother's nagging once again.
"Why are you leaving your clothes lying around again? They're all good stuff, can't you take better care of them? You're a grown adult..."
"Mom! Can you please stop bothering me! I'm exhausted after a long day at work!" Zhao Li said through gritted teeth.
"What's wrong with your job again? Didn't I tell you? Your brother-in-law went to great lengths to get you in. You can't be so willful anymore, or you'll have to go back to sweeping the streets!"
"Mom! I'm your daughter, how could you say that to me!"
"Don't I know what kind of person you are? Tell me, what happened this time?"
"I've taken a liking to a gay man."
Zhao Li said sullenly.
"Isn't that great? Bring them back to visit next time you have time."
Zhao's mother said calmly as she brought out dishes from the kitchen.
“He’s the husband of Xia Lan, the one I hate the most,” Zhao Li said angrily.
"Then you'd better give up on that idea now. If you like married men and try to break up other families, I'll break your legs!"
Zhao's mother glanced at Zhao Li and threatened her.
"Mom, I'm your daughter! How could you possibly side with an outsider!"
Zhao Li was furious.
"Then don't do such a stupid thing! No matter how good that man is, he's someone else's husband. If you dare to shamelessly become someone else's mistress, I'd rather beat you to death! I'll just pretend I don't have a daughter like you."
Zhao's mother threatened Zhao Li.
"I'm not eating!" Zhao Li was so angry when her mother kept saying she would beat her to death that she refused to eat and went straight back to her room, collapsing onto the bed.
Feeling wronged and heartbroken, why couldn't she meet such a good man, while all the good things happened to Xia Lan?
"This child! He's getting more and more outrageous."
Zhao's mother had worked hard to prepare a table full of dishes, but Zhao Li said she wouldn't eat them, which was a waste of all the food she had worked so hard to make.
Xia Lan followed Qin Yu home. Qin Yu put Xia Lan on the bed, first washing her feet and then massaging her, making Xia Lan feel very comfortable.
"Honey, don't be angry anymore, okay?" Qin Yu kissed Xia Lan's cheek, and Xia Lan glanced at him.
Will you still be so arrogant in the future?
"I'm not being arrogant anymore."
"If you do this again, you can forget about ever getting into my bed again."
"daughter in law……"
I'm hungry.
Xia Lan hummed softly.
"I've already prepared the meal; it's your favorite cured pork rice."
Qin Yu quickly carried Xia Lan out and served her food.
"Do you still have any cured meat at home?" Xia Lan remembered that they should have been gone a long time ago.
"Yes, I got it from Du Qiang's house," Qin Yu said slowly.
"Stop taking advantage of his single status!" Xia Lan felt sorry for Du Qiang.
“He can’t finish it all by himself,” Qin Yu said with a smile.
Compared to a wife, brothers can stand aside.
