Chapter 40 The Widow
After all, it was a new stall, and a few tea drinkers came here occasionally. After the sun went down, Mrs. Wang made an inventory, and sold a total of eight bowls of herbal tea, and only sold three pieces of dough, earning more than ten yuan.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was a little disappointed, Li Shuangxi smiled and said, "Don't be discouraged, today is the first day. As long as we persevere, the business will get better after a while."

Wang thinks about it too: Although the money is less than expected, it is much better than sitting at home all day long. After a summer, how much money can be counted.

After closing the stall, Li Shuangxi gave Wang six coins. Wang twisted her body to avoid it, and pouted, "No way, I've been asked to take advantage of you two all the time. How can I do it? The money from the sale Forty to sixty cents."

Li Shuangxi glanced at Mrs. Wang, and said angrily: "Who has the spare time to argue with you about who is more powerful? Just take it, half of each person."

Mrs. Wang didn't agree this time. Thinking about how much favor she owed Shuangxi's family, this time she forced Shuangxi to come here by herself. sigh.

Niu Dafu saw that his daughter-in-law couldn't persuade Wang, turned his head, looked at Li Shuangxi, and said in a rather aggressive tone, "Xiu'er came up with the idea. If Xiu'er didn't come to talk about it every day, we would know that there is such a thing in Yanshan. I don’t dare to think about it, do I? Besides, Xiu asked Dr. Wei about the idea of ​​herbal tea, so there’s nothing to say about the [-]-[-] share.”

Seeing that she couldn't hold back the couple, Mrs. Wang took the money embarrassingly.

When I went back to talk about this to Chen Tiegui at night, Chen Tiegui also sighed: "Double Happiness really has a heart for us, and has never done us any harm. You really shouldn't want that money."

In fact, Wang didn't want to ask for the extra two Wen, but Niu Dafu opened his mouth, fearing that Niu Dafu would be unhappy if he was too evasive. Niu Dafu was famous for his stubborn temper. Pole, Mrs. Wang thought about it, and decided to wait a little longer, and wait until the business gets better before finding a way to repay the favor.

Days went on as usual, and the business of the tea stand got better day by day. At first, a pot of noodle skins had to be sold for two or three days, but there were often more people who asked, but fewer people who ate.In less than half a month, once there were more repeat customers, one pot was not enough. Seeing that the business was good, Mrs. Wang put on a smile every day.

With some money in hand, Mrs. Wang decided to pull some cloth for Shuangxi's baby. It happened that Baozhu was growing up, and she looked different every year. Mrs. Wang didn't like to let her daughter wear old clothes, so she took a Kong and her husband went to the town to pull a few feet of cloth before returning to the village, and rushed to the tea stall without stopping.

As soon as they got to the front, they saw Li Shuangxi angrily yelling and cursing at the front. Mrs. Wang got off the cart in a hurry and shouted: "Shuangxi!"

Li Shuangxi nodded to Chen Tiegui, then turned around and yelled at the front with his hands on his hips: "Shameless, my business is not good, but I know it's not the one who scolded others behind their backs, if it wasn't for brother Tiefu's face." Son, see if I drag you to see the official!"

Mrs. Wang looked forward, and the person standing outside the stall was not the widow of Qian. These days, Mrs. Wang was only focused on doing business, and didn't have time to pay attention to Tiefu's stall. In my impression, I had never seen the widow of Qian. I just remember that the Ma brothers met Tie Fu once when they came to see Tian'er, and asked about Mrs. Wang, who only said that they came to help Shuangxi. Now seeing this situation, they don't know what to say.

Widow Qian did not show any weakness, and gave Li Shuangxi a pooh from a distance: "I just said a few words, but your man smashed my water tank! If you have the guts, report it to the police, whoever is afraid that you will not succeed?" ?”

Chen Tiegui couldn't help but took a few steps forward, and asked angrily, "What are you talking about!"

When Widow Qian saw Chen Tiegui coming, her aura suddenly softened a little. She was still a little bit afraid of Chen Tiegui. She heard from Tiefu that she had been taught a lot by Chen Tiegui when she was a child, and now she will be sullen and silent. .

In the past, several stalls did not communicate with each other, and they each took care of their own business, but these days, the business of Li Shuangxi’s stall is getting better day by day. Bringing and selling, who knows that the business is still not as good as Li Shuangxi.Today's matter is that Widow Qian took advantage of Wang's departure time to follow the businessmen to talk badly, slandering Wang's tea stall as unclean, the noodle has been put for a long time, and the tea is not fresh.It happened to be heard by Niu Dafu, and then Niu Dafu had a conflict with Tie Fu.

Chen Tiegui asked: "Where is Tiefu? Why don't you see anyone else!"

As soon as the words were finished, a figure emerged from the back of the cart, and said with a half-hearted smile, "Brother is here!"

Chen Tiegui glared at Chen Tiefu, gritted his teeth, and said, "You know how your sister-in-law Shuangxi treats us. Your sister-in-law is still at the stall all day, so you dare to act like this?"

Chen Tiefu chuckled, "Hui Hong is just here to help for a day, and I won't ask her to come tomorrow."

Widow Qian snorted, and said to Tie Fu angrily, "If I don't come today, don't we know that your eldest brother also has a part in this tea stall?"

Chen Tiegui was speechless for a long time, Wang stepped forward and pushed her husband, and said in a low voice, "Just say a few words, what do you have to worry about with her, won't it hurt our reputation if it spreads?"

Chen Tiegui muttered, "Do all sorts of trivial things all day long!" Turning around, he explained to Li Shuangxi: "It's really shameful for my brother, he won't dare to do it again tomorrow. , Girl, rest assured."

Li Shuangxi smiled, and carried a chair for Chen Tiegui to sit on, "If you want to talk about this, it can't be all due to Tiefu, my family's rich is so hot-tempered, alas! I just smashed Tiefu's water tank. I'm afraid your mother will be angry when I go back." right?"

Chen Tiegui snorted, "Why does he have the face to talk about this in the room?"

"That's not it!" Wang sneered, "After all, that man was not recruited by Tie Fu!"

Li Shuangxi sighed, "Your family's Hongyu people are diligent and honest, what a crime!"

When this incident happened, Li Shuangxi discussed with Mrs. Wang about changing the place. The three of them made a plan and put the stall on the mountainside the next day. Who would have imagined that not only did the business not lose, but it actually increased. Guests, besides the merchants who walk through Yanshan Mountain from the north every day, there are also some fruit farmers who go up the mountain to cut firewood and water. Mrs. Wang knows that the farmers have little money, and even a penny has to be counted and spent. Are you willing to spend a penny for a bowl of tea?Therefore, most of the time, Mrs. Wang and Li Shuangxi would let the villagers who worked around come to the stall to drink a bowl of herbal tea for free. If there were too many times, those who were a little embarrassed would give some fruits and a bundle of firewood.

Throughout the summer, the business of Wang's stall was the best, and the money earned was settled every day until Liqiu harvested the stall.

This is not counting the firewood, medicinal materials and fruits obtained from the well-meaning folks.While counting the money, Mrs. Wang smiled at her husband, "If we can separate the family next year, our brick and tile house will be settled!"

(Have a nice weekend everyone!)
