The Sturdy Little Fu Wife in the Age of Rebirth

Chapter 160 Petty Citizen

The old man: "If you think I'm right, then stand aside and don't disturb our business."

Lan Xiu wanted to say something, but was pulled aside by Xia Jian'an.

The old man gave Xia Yinyin a look, "Continue to work on you."

After finishing speaking, the old man continued to sit on his pony horse and drank tea leisurely.

Xia Yinyin: ...

I have to say that the mental ability is really strong.

With such two big living people standing next to them, who can remain indifferent?
Xia Yinyin felt like she was on her back, and she had to use the same hands and feet to pack things several times.

But when the number of customers gradually increased, I couldn't take care of it. After all, I was too busy to concentrate on it.

Xia Yinyin introduced things dryly to the customer, but after talking for a long time, the customer didn't buy anything.

"Okay, you need to come over next time." Xia Yinyin still said goodbye to the customer in a good temper.

Later came a few items to be returned. After taking them back, I didn’t like them anymore, so I wanted to return them.

Xia Yinyin didn't bother arguing with two of the ones she didn't wear, so she returned them immediately.

The other is an old lady who has already worn it, and they even washed it for her thoughtfully.

Xia Yinyin was speechless.

"You can't go back, look, you've worn it all."

Old lady: "Why don't you refund me? Why don't I know it's not suitable if I don't wear it?"

Xia Yinyin was delighted, "Then you'll know if it fits or not after you try it on, right? Why do you keep wearing it? Wash it for me after wearing it?"

"I just put it on and I don't know if it's suitable or not. I'll have to try more." The old lady had an overbearing attitude.

Xia Yinyin: ...

"Anyway, I can't retreat. You should leave quickly, and don't delay my business."

"I said what's the matter with you little girl?" The old lady saw that Xia Yinyin was not going to talk to her anymore, so she reached out to grab Xia Yinyin, "Aren't you polite to me, an old man at all?"

Xia Yinyin was helpless, "Old man, how do you want me to be polite to you? I've already told you that I can't retreat. Do you want me to tell you with a bow? Do you think it's appropriate?"

"Listen, listen, what are you talking about?" the old lady shouted, "Everyone come over and see how this little girl bullies me, an old man."

"I'm not afraid of you calling someone, and I'm right...don't drag me, I won't run away."

Lan Xiu finally couldn't stand it any longer, and hurried over to pull the old lady away from Xia Yinyin's hand, "Auntie, stop shouting, how much are these socks? I'll refund them to you!"

Xia Yinyin was taken aback.

Lan Xiu had already taken out her wallet from her bag, and was about to give the money to the old lady.

"What are you doing?" Xia Yinyin reached out and covered Lan Xiu's hand holding the money.

Lan Xiu: "I'll refund the money to her. How much can I get for a pair of socks? Don't let her make a fuss, it's too embarrassing."

Xia Yin laughed, "I don't quite understand what you mean, why is it embarrassing?"

"It's her shame to be ashamed, right? It's not that I return the socks that have been worn and washed. Everyone's eyes are sharp and they will see the facts clearly."

"You child..." Lan Xiu frowned, "She's an old man, why do you always care about her?"

Xia Yinyin: ...

"Come on, aunt, money." Lan Xiu handed the money to the old lady.

The old lady was immediately satisfied, but she still cursed a few words in her mouth, threw the socks to the ground, and walked away proudly.

Lan Xiu looked at Xia Yinyin, "Yinyin, let's not argue with this kind of petty bourgeoisie, we will lose our share!"

Xia Yinyin bent down and picked up the socks from the ground, "I'm sorry, I'm just such a petty citizen."

After speaking, he turned and walked to the trash can, and threw the socks into it.

After returning, he ignored Lan Xiu and went to work on his own.

The old man watched this farce coldly from the beginning to the end, watching Lan Xiu talk to Xia Jian'an full of grievances.

Xia Jianan comforted her a few words.

But in this matter, he is also on his wife's side. In his opinion, it is really embarrassing to be noisy with people on the street.

He even felt that Xia Yinyin would not be able to stand on the stage in the market like this.

The old man suddenly waved at the two of them.

Xia Jian'an and Lan Xiu looked at each other, and walked over quickly, "Master, what do you want?"

The old man: "You two don't have to go to work? What are you doing here? Go to work."

Lan Xiu: "Master, both of us have asked for leave, just want to see Yinyin."

"Ask for leave?" The old man raised his eyebrows, "What do you two do?"

Xia Jian'an: "I work in the Cultural Affairs Bureau, and my wife is a primary school teacher."

The old man snorted, "Are they all cultural people?"

"Not at all," Lan Xiu said with undisguised pride on her face, "Anyway, the family doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. After Yinyin returns with us, she won't have to do the hard work of setting up a stall."

"Can your family introduce her to a job?" the old man asked.

Xia Jian'an was still on guard, and said vaguely, "See if there is anyone recruiting, and let her go if there is a suitable one. Every day I quarrel with others and get stared at."

Lan Xiu also nodded, "Yinyin hasn't suffered by our side these years, and now that she finally came back, she must make up for it."

"Your method of compensation..." the old man sighed in admiration, "I don't even ask Yin girl whether she agrees or not."

"What does she disagree with?" Lan Xiu asked suspiciously, "We are all for her benefit, as you have seen, every day we run into a lot of unreasonable people when setting up a stall, and we feel sorry for her."

"You are all right!" The old man took a sip of his tea, and let them hit the wall.

The two of them were also really persevering, and they really stayed with Xia Yinyin until he closed the stall.

Xia Yinyin: "You two go back too."

Xia Jian'an: "Yinyin, your mother and I will take you home."

"Yes," Lan Xiu also said, "Look at your many things."

"No need," Xia Yinyin refused directly, "I do this every day, and I'm used to it."

Lan Xiu's face was full of distress, "Yinyin, you had no choice before, but now you don't have to do these things anymore."

Xia Yinyin didn't understand Lan Xiu's words, and didn't pay attention to her. She packed her things and turned around to leave.

The old man also picked up the ponytail and followed, "You two don't follow, or I will call the police and say that you are following us."

Lanxiu: ...

"Why are you walking so fast?" the old man shouted behind him.

Xia Yinyin: "Who told you to dawdle so much?"

The old man laughed loudly, "What's the matter? You don't want me to talk to them?"

"What can we say? Anyway, we are all petty citizens, and we don't deserve their nobility!" Xia Yinyin said angrily.

The old man: "Oh, so angry? You really are young and vigorous!"
