There was some distance between the place where the boats were parked at the port and Chang Pingning's stall. Chang Pingning was worried that Guo Bomo's shipmates were waiting impatiently, so he hurried back to the stall, made a sea urchin fried rice and took it back to the fishing boat, attracting buyers nearby. Home attention.

Guo Bomo took the opportunity to promote his wife's stall to everyone, and asked them to come and support them after buying the fish.

Seeing this, Chang Pingning continued Guo Bomo's words and told them that if the customers who bought fish from her husband's fishing boat today patronized her stall, there would be preferential prices waiting for them.

Captain Zhao listened to the couple's shouts and couldn't help but stepped forward to tease them: "What you said, I thought the Bomer brothers were the bosses of the ship."

Guo Bomo declined, saying "dare not" repeatedly.

Chang Pingning looked at Guo Bomo nervously, worried that their previous shouting might offend the ship boss.

Guo Bomo took Chang Pingning's hand and squeezed it gently, signaling her to relax.

Sure enough, Captain Zhao just teased the couple and left without saying anything else.Guo Bomo also greeted the merchants who came to buy fish and introduced to them what kind of fish they caught this time.

Chang Pingning watched buying and weighing fish near the fishing boat for a while, and felt that it was just the same thing. He found Guo Bomo's free time, said hello to him, and returned to his stall.

Perhaps the well-informed merchants knew that the fishing boats would dock today. Chang Pingning's stall was not as busy as before this morning. During her absence, she only sold a few charcoal-grilled oysters. No one even came to order the sea urchin fried rice.

Chang Ping'an was a little nervous. He asked Chang Pingning: "Ning Ning, is my craftsmanship not as good as the previous girl? As soon as everyone saw that it was me, they stopped buying."

Chang Pingning shook his head: "Brother is overthinking. I have eaten the oysters baked by you and Ruilan, and they taste almost the same as mine. Just bake the oysters well. Maybe a fishing boat will return to port today, and they will They all went to grab fish.”

Guo Zhongzhou, who was leisurely on the side, also echoed: "Brother Ping'an, don't worry. I see that there are not many merchants at other stalls today. I guess it's just like what my sister-in-law said. Everyone is going to buy sea fish around the fishing boats."

Chang Pingning nodded and agreed with Guo Zhongzhou's statement. Both of them wanted to prevent Chang Ping'an from being disappointed because there were few guests today.

After a while, Chang Pingning looked at the nearby fish stalls, but there were no merchants coming to buy fish, so she walked to Ruilan's small charcoal stove. She was worried that it would be like Chang Ping'an there, because there were no customers. I can’t sell anything and I’m not confident in my craft.

The sun had come out. Chang Pingning walked over and saw that the small charcoal stoves around Rilan and Aunt Qiuhong were deserted, and Aunt Qiuhong also had a sad look on her face.

Chang Pingning sighed inwardly, but still walked up to them with a smile and comforted them that this situation was rare today.Then he asked Ruilan how the roasted oysters were selling that morning.

Ruilan answered one by one.

It sounded much better than Chang Ping'an's morning.Chang Pingning saw that the area around Ruilan's stall was the only way in and out of the port, and couldn't help but praise Ruilan. She was very wise in choosing a location in the morning.

When Aunt Qiuhong heard Chang Pingning praising her daughter, she also praised Chang Pingning a few words.

The three of them were standing next to the stall chatting. As they were talking, Chang Pingning heard a familiar voice.

"Is this the 'Charcoal Grilled Oyster' that's been very popular in town recently?"

Chang Pingning turned around and found that the person speaking was the county magistrate she had met a few days ago. Along with her, there were Miss Liu and Meng Xia. Behind them, there were two or three ladies with a bookish temperament standing.

The group of them was curiously looking at the several small charcoal stoves in front of them and the oysters in the bucket next to them.

Miss Liu and Meng Xia both saw Chang Pingning. They nodded to Chang Pingning, and the three of them said hello.Seeing that Miss Liu had no intention of answering her previous question, Miss County Magistrate raised a smile and walked to Miss Liu with a kind attitude: "Mrs. Wang... Liu..., would you like to have a few here to taste? This food is very popular in the town recently, but it is hard to find it in Cyclamen."

"No need." Miss Liu's expression was calm.

"Our young lady doesn't like eating outside, so you understand." Meng Xia smiled and responded for Liu Qingwan, then pointed to Chang Pingning, "Besides, this stall itself belongs to us..."

"Meng Xia." Liu Qingwan looked sideways at Meng Xia.

Meng Xia stopped talking and walked to Chang Pingning: "Ms. Chang, do you still remember what I mentioned to you before, that some noble ladies are curious about going to the sea? I wonder if it is not convenient for you to take us to the beach today. .”

Chang Pingning was still shocked by the great change in the attitude of the county magistrate. The domineering look she had in the past few days seemed like a different person.

"Ah?" Chang Pingning's reaction was a little dull, and he subconsciously answered Meng Xia, "I haven't closed the stall yet." As he said that, he pointed to his stall not far away.

After saying that, Chang Pingning regretted it. Although Meng Xia asked her in a polite manner, it was obvious that she had brought the person in front of her. If she refused at this time, the person who would be resented by these noble ladies would be She is always at peace.

"If you do it now..." Chang Pingning hurriedly tried to make amends, wanting to agree now. It just so happened that the stall was not very busy today.

"It's okay, Mrs. Chang." The county magistrate called Chang Pingning after Meng Xia's name, with a friendly attitude, "You are busy now, we will go around, you can come to us when you are free. "

Generous and gentle, she is completely different from the county magistrate lady that Chang Pingning had in mind two days ago.

Chang Pingning was surprised and looked at Meng Xia and Miss Liu standing aside as if asking for help.

"It's okay, go ahead and get busy." Miss Liu's tone was still as flat as before, with no emotion at all.

But Chang Pingning knew that there was no need for her to put down her work at the stall and accompany these people to catch the sea.

"Thank you, Miss Liu." Chang Pingning thanked Liu Qingwan, "When I close the stall, I will definitely go find you."

"Hey, how did you call Wang..." The county magistrate looked very dissatisfied with the way Chang Pingning addressed Liu Qingwan.

"Nothing." Liu Qingwan said, glancing at the county magistrate.

The atmosphere cooled down for a while.

"Why don't we go to the port over there and have a look? Look, there are a lot of people gathered there." Meng Xia said to break the suddenly cold atmosphere.

The ladies standing behind Liu Qingwan all agreed, and the group walked towards the fish stall in the port.

After the group of them walked away, Chang Pingning accidentally saw the expressions of disgust on the faces of several ladies, guessing that they would not stay at the smelly fish stall at the port for too long.

"Ping Ning, why did you call that girl from the Liu family, Miss Liu?" Ruilan asked in a low voice after seeing the group of people walking away. (End of chapter)
