The next day, Shen Mingzhu sent Pei Ziheng to kindergarten. After going downstairs, she met Ma Sufen who was also sending Zhou Hao. The other party's already cold face became longer than a donkey's face after seeing Shen Mingzhu.

After Ma Sufen and Zhou Hao walked away, a mother who was on good terms with Shen Mingzhu whispered in her ear, "After you left last night, she scolded her daughter-in-law all night long. Everyone in the entire apartment building heard it. She still had the nerve to scold her daughter-in-law. She is much more talkative than her daughter-in-law. She talks about other people's affairs all day long. She used to laugh at me behind my back for being a hen that couldn't lay eggs. She thought everyone was a pushover. Now she has hit a wall. She deserves it!"

Shen Mingzhu was in a very good mood when she learned that Shen Baolan was scolded by her mother-in-law.

After talking about the Zhou family, the other party talked about Pei Wenping again, "Your elder sister-in-law is a really good person. At least she protects you, unlike me..."

The other party began to complain about all the faults of her sister-in-law. Shen Mingzhu felt very embarrassed listening to her and calmly changed the subject.

After this incident, Shen Baolan finally calmed down and no longer ran to Shen Mingzhu's side.

Shen Mingzhu baked the thirty kilograms of egg cakes ordered by Wang Defa's relatives as scheduled and made a profit of fifteen yuan.

After baking the egg cake, Shen Mingzhu was not idle. The Mid-Autumn Festival was just a few days away, and she was preparing to bake moon cakes to sell.

She did a little research beforehand and found that people here like to eat five-nut mooncakes the most, so five-nut fillings must be available.

Secondly, her favorite snow skin mooncakes must also be available, and finally there must be red bean paste and lotus seed paste with egg yolk.

After deciding on the flavor and type, Shen Mingzhu got to work.

She bought materials and customized mooncake molds. When people in the housing estate saw her moving large and small bags home every day, they no longer talked about her being a spendthrift, but instead praised her for being capable.

"Pei Yang has good vision. Look at how capable this young wife he married is. She earns money just by staying at home every day."

"That's right. I wonder what he's doing this time..."

After two days of busy work, Shen Mingzhu's mooncake stall finally opened.

Shen Mingzhu is very familiar with setting up stalls. When she was a host, she live-streamed the stalls selling various street snacks.

The first step to setting up a stall is to have a thick skin.

After setting up the stall, Shen Mingzhu held up the mooncakes cut into small pieces and enthusiastically invited passers-by to try them.

Passersby praised the taste of the mooncakes, but shook their heads when they heard the price.

It’s too expensive.

Shen Mingzhu was not discouraged and still enthusiastically invited passers-by to try the food.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening. One third of the mooncakes she prepared were eaten by the test takers, but she didn't sell a single one.

An ordinary five-nut mooncake costs only about 1.5 cents each, but Shen Mingzhu sells them for 30 cents each.

One mooncake costs 1.5 yuan, and ten mooncakes cost 1.5 yuan. What kind of family is this? A box of mooncakes costs so much more than others. Wouldn't it be delicious to buy a pound of fat pork to cook with? Will you be able to ascend to heaven after eating this mooncake?

"Hey, Mingzhu, what good stuff are you selling here?"

Shen Mingzhu was not in a good mood when she saw Shen Baolan, who had appeared out of nowhere and was lingering around.

"You have two eggs hanging under your eyebrows. You can only blink but not look?"

Shen Baolan curled her lips and said, "It turns out to be a mooncake. Let me try it."

As she reached out to take it, Shen Mingzhu picked up the fly swatter and threw it at her, hitting her right on the back of her hand with a "pop" sound.

"Why did you hit someone? Do you think it's necessary for me to taste a piece of your mooncake?" Shen Baolan was very angry.

Shen Mingzhu was not so stingy as not to let Shen Baolan taste the mooncake. There were clearly small pieces cut into pieces for sampling on the plate, but she insisted on taking the whole one for her.

Spoil her! "As for that! I won't let you taste it! If you want to eat it, pay for it!"

Shen Baolan pinched the back of her hand that was bruised from being hit, and said tauntingly, "I sold all afternoon and didn't sell a single one. I don't know what you are so proud of. You made some money by sheer luck a few days ago, so you really think you are cut out for business? Do you think business is that easy? You spent all the money you earned on these mooncakes, and in the end you couldn't sell a single one. It's all in vain. It's so funny."

Shen Mingzhu rolled her eyes and said, "It's none of your business whether it can be sold or not. If it can't be sold, I'll take it home and give it away. I'm happy with that."

"You're giving it to someone else anyway, so why not just give it to me?"

"I'll take you away, a thousand miles away, get lost."

Seeing that she couldn't get any advantage from Shen Mingzhu, Shen Baolan left in disappointment.

Not long after Shen Baolan left, Pei Ziheng came to her stall.

Shen Mingzhu's stall was right next to the main gate of the staff housing compound. Today was Saturday and there was no kindergarten, so Pei Ziheng was originally at home alone.

Pei Ziheng asked as he looked at the mooncakes on her stall.

Shen Mingzhu teased him deliberately, "Are you hungry? If you are hungry, just eat mooncakes. They can't be sold anyway, so don't waste them. We can each eat two mooncakes tonight and we won't cook."

Hearing her say this, Pei Ziheng frowned so much that he could pinch a mosquito to death.

At this time, someone was pushing a bicycle towards this side. Shen Mingzhu immediately took the plate of tasting and stepped forward to attract him. Only when she got closer did she recognize that this was Shen Baolan's man.

Compared to Shen Mingzhu's embarrassment, Zhou Shuhuan was quite natural. He tasted the mooncake graciously, then walked to Shen Mingzhu's mooncake stall and ordered two of each kind.

"How much is it?"

"Three dollars and two cents. I'll give you the change. Just give me three dollars."

Zhou Shuhuan, who was taking out money, was stunned. Maybe he thought he had heard it wrong, so he asked again. But when he learned that the price was indeed three yuan, his expression was indescribable.

"How's business?"

"Not very good, you are the only buyer."

“…”

It turns out that he is the only one who has been taken advantage of.

Forget it, it’s not easy for the mother and daughter. They are still selling mooncakes when it’s almost dark. I’ll just consider it as taking care of the business for my brother.

At this time, Pei Ziheng finally understood why such delicious mooncakes could not be sold.

So you are like Jiang Taigong fishing, waiting for those who are willing to take the bait?

Having successfully sold a business deal, Shen Mingzhu contentedly closed her stall and prepared to go home.

At Zhou's house, Shen Baolan was teasing Shen Mingzhu with her mother-in-law, "...If it weren't for Pei Wenping's face, she wouldn't have come to her to buy egg cakes. She really thought she was so capable. She's so stupid this time. She can't even sell a mooncake. She wasted so much flour and sugar in vain. It's so embarrassing."

The last time Pei Wenping came to her house for a quarrel, although Ma Sufen was very angry that night, Shen Baolan took the initiative to make peace afterwards, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law reconciled quickly, with a tacit understanding of "united front, united against external foes".

Upon hearing that none of the mooncakes made by Shen Mingzhu were sold, Ma Sufen was extremely happy and she and Shen Baolan kept scolding Shen Mingzhu, saying that she deserved it.

Just as they were scolding each other, Zhou Shuhuan came back, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law immediately fell silent.

"dad!"

"Mooncake, I want to eat mooncake!"

Hearing her grandson shouting in the living room, Ma Sufen walked out of the kitchen, stared at the mooncake in her son's hand and asked where it came from.

Zhou Shuheng gave the mooncake to Ma Sufen, casually replied that he bought it downstairs, and went back to the house.

The mooncakes are individually packaged in transparent plastic bags, each with a flavor label on it.

As her grandson was making a fuss, Ma Sufen picked up a mooncake with red bean paste filling, broke off a small piece and handed it to her grandson. Smelling the fragrance of the red bean paste, she couldn't help but taste it herself.

At this time, Shen Baolan also came out of the kitchen. Seeing her grandma and grandson eating mooncakes, she couldn't help swallowing.

"Mom, let me have a taste too."

Ma Sufen reluctantly broke off a small piece of the mooncake in her hand and handed it over.

Shen Baolan took a bite and her eyes lit up immediately.

Although she had eaten mooncakes before, she had never eaten such delicious mooncakes. The unique delicate taste of the red bean paste and the strong bean fragrance were so memorable that she wanted to eat more.

"Mom, the mooncakes in the city are so delicious, a hundred times better than the mooncakes in our countryside!"

"That's right, don't you see who bought it?"

Zhou Shuhuan just came out of the room, so Ma Sufen asked her son where he bought it downstairs so that she could buy some tomorrow.

But when they heard that the mooncakes were bought from Shen Mingzhu, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law almost died of anger.
