"Yes! If I had that much silver, I would have redeemed my daughter long ago. It wouldn't cost much to redeem her from a brothel. His daughter isn't pretty, so her mother might not want her."
The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they didn't listen to Gu Yunni's different opinions at all.
They used to run a small stall together, but he suddenly became rich, so these people naturally felt unbalanced.
It is human nature to take this opportunity to say a few more bad things.
"Forget it. People can live their lives the way they want. We'd better not say too much. Little girl, why don't you come to my house and look at the clothes? My clothes are good too. Although the material is not as good as the rich, it is enough for ordinary people to wear."
"Yes, our snacks are good, and there's also the vegetables sold by that lady. She has to pick vegetables from the village all day long, and her life is not easy. If you want to buy some vegetables, why not go over there and have a look?"
The few of them didn't say anything more and started soliciting customers.
The older sister who had sold Gu Yunni the hairpin at the beginning immediately felt uncomfortable and her face drooped.
Just as he was about to start cursing, he was stopped by Gu Yunni's words, "Thank you everyone, but I'm a little busy today and may not be able to continue shopping. I will definitely come again next time I have the chance."
There was a hint of regret on the faces of several people, but they quickly gathered themselves.
"Alright! Then you must remember what I said today. If you come to the east city to buy things next time, please patronize our store. The quality of our products is good, more than one or two times better than other shops."
"It's the same in our family."
Gu Yunni kept smiling, and in the blink of an eye, there were not many people left on the street.
She walked back to the small stall that sold jewelry, and while paying, she seemed to ask casually.
"Sister, do you know where that butcher used to get his pork from? Or can you tell me his current address? I don't know what's wrong with my mouth, I'm just picky about food. I only want to eat pork from that butcher and I really don't want to eat pork from anywhere else!"
The eldest sister patted her hands and spoke with a smile.
"What's the big deal? Who doesn't have two favorite foods? Just buy pork from wherever you like. Don't be embarrassed!"
Although she said that, there was a look of contempt in the elder sister's eyes. It was the first time she saw someone so picky about pork.
"If you ask me where his family used to get their pork from, I really don't know, but I do know their current address. Wait for me, I'll sell everything on my stall and take you there. Their food is really delicious, and I've been thinking about it lately."
"Thank you, big sister."
The eldest sister seemed very straightforward, and Gu Yunni felt relieved as long as she didn't arouse suspicion.
The two of them stood in front of the stall for a long time. Perhaps it was because Sheng Mingyu's temperament was too repulsive, but even if there were women and girls around who wanted to come over, they would stay away because of his temperament.
Seeing that her elder sister's face was getting worse and worse, Gu Yunni felt extremely embarrassed.
"Big sister, I see you've been selling for a long time, and the things on this stall may not be able to sell. Why don't I take it all? Just take me directly to the butcher, and you can pay the original price. I won't bargain down the price."
"real?"
As soon as Gu Yunni said this, the elder sister's expression changed immediately. There was a hint of suspicion between her eyebrows, and she looked her up and down.
"Girl, I don't know if you have enough money, but if it's really inconvenient, there's no need to be the biggest spender here. I'll just set up my stall. It'll be enough for today, and I don't have to sell it all."
She said this tentatively, feeling a little embarrassed.
Gu Yunni shook her head helplessly, "It's nothing. I did waste your time today. Just sell all these jewels to me. I have many people in my family, so it's easy to divide them up when I get home."
"Alright then! I won't be polite with you. I'll pack these jewels for you first, and then I'll take you to find the butcher later."
After listening to Gu Yunni's words, the eldest sister no longer had any worries and nodded in agreement.
She couldn't make so much money from setting up a stall normally, and she was able to make so much today thanks to Gu Yunni.
She packed up her stall as quickly as possible, followed Gu Yunni and the others into the carriage and left.
"As for the houses in the south of the city, they're actually pretty good. Although there's a small slum area, at least the environment is elegant. The butcher's house is right in the middle. It's not the most expensive, but it's not the worst either. He's the best among us street vendors."
The atmosphere was too awkward. The eldest sister kept talking while the carriage was moving.
"Really? I'm thinking that once my wife makes more money, I'll buy a small house in the south of the city. This area has a lively atmosphere and a good environment. Many people live here, and there are also small businesses here."
"Yeah! I'm saving money now. If I have the chance, I'd like to rent a house here. It's better than living in that messy place. Sometimes children learn bad habits from the neighbors."
Gu Yunni kept chatting with her elder sister about family matters, while Sheng Mingyu tried hard to hold back his momentum and remained silent beside the carriage.
Mo Qing drove the car very quickly, and in a blink of an eye they arrived at the south of the city. Looking at the neat rows of houses, Gu Yunni's eyes were deep.
The houses here are still a little worse than those in the north of the city, but much better than those in the east.
If compared with the west of the city, it is like heaven and earth. Most of the people living in the west of the city are beggars.
As soon as the elder sister got off the car, her eyes revealed envy and she sighed leisurely.
Who among those who set up stalls to sell goods doesn’t want to have a small house in the south of the city?
"Let's go, don't waste time, I'll take you two to look for it." The eldest sister took a deep breath, waved her hand, and the two hurriedly followed.
"This is the house. His house isn't very big, but it's big enough for a family of three. I heard he still has work to do and doesn't just sit there enjoying himself all day. If you knock on the door now, you might not be able to find him."
"Thank you!"
Gu Yunni looked at the medium-sized yard in front of her. It was well designed. From outside the wall, she could see several fruit trees planted inside. It should be very beautiful in the summer.
"Sorry to bother you with this matter today, sister. I still have some money. You can use it to have a cup of tea as my thank you fee. I will knock on the door myself later. I don't need your introduction."
Gu Yunni took out another two taels of silver and handed it to her eldest sister.
The eldest sister was flattered and quickly pushed the silver away, her face a little stiff.
"No, no, I've already taken a lot of money from you. You should take it back. I just asked you to show me the way. It's not a big deal. You even bought the things on my stall. If you want to thank me, I should be the one thanking you."
"No! This is a thank you fee now. The money I gave you last time wasn't money for buying things, so of course we have to keep it separate. Take it quickly, and don't be shy."
