Chapter 41 Want to bring them together

Qin Xiuzhu and Liu Yingyue drove their donkey cart out of the village and headed towards the village market.

Along the way, we still saw many people going to the market.

But no one got in their car.

It is not easy for villagers to make money, so they spend their money wisely and try not to take the car if they can walk.

Two cents for a ride.

But two cents can buy three taels of brown rice, which is the food supply for the whole family.

For people from poor families, exchanging food rations for enjoyment is a sinful act.

Qin Xiuzhu sighed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to make back the money I spent on today's car rental."

"How much did it cost to rent the car this time?" Liu Yingyue asked.

"It didn't cost any money." Qin Xiuzhu chuckled and said proudly.

"You didn't spend any money? Who is so kind to give you a donkey cart to ride?" Liu Yingyue asked curiously.

The Qin family is heavily in debt, and people who are familiar with the Qin family are unwilling to associate with them for fear of borrowing money.

Not to mention sending a donkey cart.

And I won’t lend money to people I don’t know well.

"It's the donkey cart of a friend of my brother. He said he is good friends with my brother, so he didn't ask for money." Qin Xiuzhu said proudly.

"What's the name of your brother's friend? What does he do?" Liu Yingyue asked.

"Why do you care about everything? It's enough to have a car to ride, why do you ask so many questions?" Qin Xiuzhu rolled her eyes at Liu Yingyue and snorted coldly.

"I'm just asking casually. OK, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Liu Yingyue patted the donkey's back.

Several men in the village who had close contacts with Qin Yiran were not much better off than the Qin family, and none of them had any livestock at home.

Who could Qin Xiuzhu be talking about?
-
Before we knew it, the donkey cart was on the street.

Because it was not a big market, the streets were not crowded with people.

Qin Xiuzhu looked around and asked, "Liu Yingyue, where are we going to sell cakes today?"

"Let's go to the beef noodle soup restaurant. They sell food and there are many people there," said Liu Yingyue.

With the experience from last time, Qin Xiuzhu believed in Liu Yingyue's advice without a doubt.

"Okay, let's go there."

It was just dawn and the beef restaurant had just opened, but there were not many people inside.

Liu Yingyue stood by the door and looked inside.

Qin Xiuzhu thought of the last time Qin Yiran invited Liu Yingyue to eat beef noodle soup, and said, holding her purse, "Liu Yingyue, I had breakfast at home when I came here. If you are hungry, you can go and eat by yourself. I won't go. I want to sell cakes."

Liu Yingyue glanced at her. Was Qin Xiuzhu afraid that she would treat them to beef noodles?

"I also had breakfast at home."

"Then why are you looking inside?" Qin Xiuzhu opened her eyes wide, "What are you looking at?"

Liu Yingyue curled her lips slightly, "I didn't see anything."

She was looking at Qin Xiuzhu's future husband, Chen Baian.

The shopkeeper instructed Chen Baian to go to the front of the beef noodle soup restaurant and call out, because not many people were eating noodles today, so he had to attract some customers to come in.

She had to find a way to let Chen Baian and Qin Xiuzhu meet earlier.

Because the book says that although Qin Xiuzhu and Chen Baian later became husband and wife, they encountered many difficulties before they were together.

Even the kind that dislikes each other.

If they were allowed to meet earlier and taught how to run a business, the young couple would not have to rely on Qin Yiran's support in the future. Qin Yiran's burden would be lighter and he would be able to start his business earlier.

Qin Xiuzhu followed Liu Yingyue's gaze into the beef noodle soup restaurant and found that there was indeed nothing unusual. She shrugged her shoulders and sorted out the baked cakes in the basket.

Chen Baian walked to the door and saw Liu Yingyue and Qin Xiuzhu at a glance.

He glanced at Qin Xiuzhu and nodded to Liu Yingyue, "You are Madam Liu who came to eat noodles with Brother Qin last time. You are here to the market again today." "Yes, I have to leave for a while. It's okay for my sister-in-law to sell cakes here, right?" Liu Yingyue pointed at Qin Xiuzhu and said.

Chen Baian smiled cheerfully and said, "It's okay, as long as you don't set up a stall at the gate, our shopkeeper won't say anything."

"Okay, thank you very much." Liu Yingyue smiled and nodded, then said to Qin Xiuzhu, "Is it okay for you to be here alone?"

Qin Xiuzhu wanted Liu Yingyue to accompany her, but when she saw Chen Baian staring at them, she felt embarrassed and pretended to be fierce and straightened her chin and said, "What's the big deal? Just go and do your thing."

"Okay, I'll be back in a while." Liu Yingyue picked up her backpack and left.

Chen Baian looked at both sides of the street and found that no one was coming, so shouting was useless.

At this time, he found that the purse Qin Xiuzhu tied around her waist was not tied tightly and was about to fall off.

When he was hesitating whether to remind Qin Xiuzhu, he heard Qin Xiuzhu angrily said, "Why are you looking at me? Lecher!"

Chen Baian was embarrassed, "I, I, I... I'm not..."

"Then why are you still looking!" Qin Xiuzhu rolled up her sleeves and rushed towards Chen Baian.

"Your wallet is about to fall off!" Chen Baian said, pointing at Qin Xiuzhu's waist.

Qin Xiuzhu was stunned and looked down.

That’s right. The string of the purse around my waist loosened at some point.

If you're not careful, you'll fall down after walking a few steps.

Although there were only a dozen coins in it, she spent three days making this purse and it was her favorite purse.

After the misunderstanding was resolved, Qin Xiuzhu felt embarrassed.

Although she is bold and daring, she is not good at talking to strange men.

He just glanced at Chen Baian and continued to organize his own pancakes.

At this time, several people walked down the street.

Qin Xiuzhu immediately shouted, "Buns, two cents each. Big, fragrant, crispy, and delicious. Come and buy some."

She followed Liu Yingyue's instructions and shouted in a very professional manner.

Chen Baian also calmed down and shouted, "Sir, you got up early and haven't had breakfast yet? Our shop has clear soup noodles, beef noodles, and egg noodles."

A middle-aged man passing by was riding a donkey with a bag on his back.

He nodded and got off the donkey. "Give me a bowl of beef noodle soup."

"Okay, sir, please come in." Chen Baian invited a guest and happily welcomed him in.

The guest threw the donkey's reins to him and said, "Keep an eye on the donkey for me."

"Don't worry, sir." Chen Baian nodded with a smile.

He tied the donkey to a hitching stone in the alleyway of the noodle shop.

Qin Xiuzhu's donkey was still tied there.

Two donkeys, one male and one female.

The guest's female donkey didn't seem to like Qin Xiuzhu's male donkey.

But the male donkey was very happy with the female donkey and came over to her happily.

The donkey brayed, loosened the reins, and ran away.

Qin Xiuzhu's donkey was like a chicken with its blood pumped up. It also pulled the reins and chased after it excitedly.

Two donkeys were running wildly down the street.

It was early in the morning and there were not many pedestrians on the street. The donkeys ran very fast and soon disappeared from sight.

Qin Xiuzhu and Chen Baian were both dumbfounded.

How come the donkeys ran away in just the blink of an eye?

"You little bastard, compensate me for my donkey! Your donkey kidnapped my donkey, why don't you go find it?" Qin Xiuzhu burst into tears and waved her fist to hit Chen Baian.
