Chapter 192: The Boss is too Lazy

At the same time, there were other customers pulled by their friends to Xiao Lingyu’s shop and bought some vegetables on their friends’ advice. They still didn’t think the vegetables should be so expensive.

Around noon, they started to cook. Instantly, the fragrance immediately filled the room.

“Wow, why does it smell so good?”

“It just went into the pot, and it already smells so good. It’ll be better when it’s cooked!”

People were excited. After the lunch was ready, the students came back from school.

“Mom/Grandma, what did you make today? It smells so good. I’m drooling already!”

“Grandma, I want to eat vegetables!”

“Okay, Grandma will get some for you!”

That afternoon, many picky eaters, who didn’t like vegetables, filled their bowls with vegetables.

Some families had children facing the university entrance exam. The students were under a lot of pressure as the date approached. They couldn’t sleep or eat well. That day, a high school student smelled the fragrance when he returned home. His mind cleared. He ran into the kitchen and asked, “Mom, what are you making? I’m so hungry!”

The lady in the kitchen wanted to cry. Lately, her son had developed anorexia from too much stress. He could not eat anything. If he ate, he might even vomit. It had been so long since she heard her son actively ask for something to eat.

The mother wiped her tears and said with a smile. “Okay. Yong ‘Er, have a seat. I’ll serve the food in a minute!”

Yong ‘Er smiled. “Mom, let me help you.” He served the dishes and prepared the table. After he sat down at the dining table, his stomach growled even louder. He picked up a piece of cabbage and put it into his mouth. He thought he would feel nauseous, but he didn’t. If anything, the sweetness of the vegetables lifted his appetite.

When his mother noticed his son didn’t spit the food out, she immediately picked up a piece of eggplant and put it into his bowl. She said excitedly, “Yong ‘Er, try the eggplant. You used to love eggplant.”

Yong ‘Er ate the eggplant. It was amazing too. He picked the other dishes and started to dig in.

The mother noticed her son didn’t show any anorexic reaction, and she was so happy. “This is great. Yong ‘Er, you should hurry up and eat. After you’re done, I’ll go buy more vegetables.” The woman didn’t buy that much that morning. They were expensive, so she didn’t want to waste money. However, since the vegetables could help with her son’s anorexia, she would pay the world for them!

…

All one thousand catties of vegetables were sold out around 1 pm. Xiao Mingyang and Liu Chunhua were incredulous. The expensive stock was all gone. The cheapest vegetable on sale was 3 RMB per catty, and the most expensive was 20 RMB per catty. Even calculated using the cheapest price, Xiao Lingyu would have three thousand RMB in profit. And that was the minimum price!

They couldn’t even earn that much in a year, but Xiao Lingyu managed that in a day.

This… was a huge blow to them.

“Yu ‘Er, the vegetables are all sold out?” Liu Chunhua couldn’t hide her excitement.

“Yes, fourth aunt. We can close the shop and go home to rest now!” Xiao Lingyu said with a smile. Xiao Lingyu predicted this. Xing Yin County was not that rich, but even the poorest county had a few rich families.

Her vegetables were expensive, but as long as they were worth the price, people would buy them. Furthermore, her vegetables were not only delicious but also had other special effects.

Liu Chunhua was shocked. “Yu ‘Er, we’re closing shop already?”

Xiao Mingyang saw the silly look on his wife’s face, and he laughed. “We are all sold out! Why should we stay open? Besides, we’ve all woken up early today. We should go back to rest.”

Mother Xiao nodded. “That’s right. We will go to Yu ‘Er’s place to rest for a while. We’ll depart for the village around three or four.”

Xiao Lingyu rented a bungalow with many rooms. The four tidied up the shop and went back to the rented house to rest. They woke up early and worked through the day. They were tired already.

When people returned to the shop to make some more purchases for dinner, they were shocked to find the place closed.

“They’ve closed already? They’ve sold out?”

“It should be. Otherwise, why would they close shop so early? Vegetables aren’t fresh the next day!”

“It looks like we’ll have to come back tomorrow.”

“Based on the situation today, we’ll have to come early tomorrow, or we might miss everything!”

“That’s right. But when does the shop open?”

“It was their grand opening today, so they had to follow an auspicious time. I believe the opening time will return to normal tomorrow.”

“Seriously. Why didn’t the boss put up a notice to tell us the opening hours?”

“I’ve frequented Miss Xiao when she sold her produce on a tricycle. Unlike the other vendors, she didn’t start selling at 5 or 6 am. Instead, she started her business at around 8 or 9 am. I suppose her shop will be the same.”

“8 or 9 am? How can the boss be so lazy? Every vegetable vendor wants to get up as early as possible, but she does things as she pleases.”

“Haha. Others need to worry about having not enough sales, but Boss Xiao needs to worry about not having enough stock. So why should she hurry?”

“You’re right!”

Of course, Xiao Lingyu didn’t hear all these.

…

Old Master Gong took the fishing rod and went to the river to fish.

The guard Xiao Wang stood by his side.

At this moment, Old Master Gong asked, “Xiao Wang, I heard the girl harvested the vegetables to have them sold today?”

Xiao Wang nodded. “Yes, I heard from the villagers that they had picked over 800 catties of vegetables. And she would sell them in the county town.”

Old Master Gong sighed, “The girl was the top scorer, a famous university graduate. But now, she has to grow and sell vegetables. What a waste of her talent!”

Xiao Wang said, “Everyone has their own aspirations. Plus, I heard Xiao Lingyu had to do this because of her ex-boyfriend.”

Old Master Gong had been in Taoyuan Village for a while already, so he had heard of Xiao Lingyu’s failed relationship.

“Xiao Lingyu is such a good girl. To think she would run into such a scumbag.” Xiao Wang sympathized with Xiao Lingyu, “Fortunately, karma is always watching. The scumbag and his family got their retribution.”

Old Master Gong said in amusement, “Haha, it sounds like you care for the girl.”

Xiao Wang scratched his head and said with an embarrassed smile, “Xiao Lingyu is such a good girl, but she met such a scum, causing her to live in this small village to farm and sell vegetables. I think it’s a pity.”

Old Master Gong nodded and said, “It’s indeed a pity!”

However, he felt that Xiao Lingyu’s attitude towards him was a little strange. It felt like she wanted to curry favor with him but also wanted to push him away at the same time. However, she didn’t curry favor with him because of his background, but something else.

Old Master Gong asked Xiao Ling, “Do you feel that this girl’s attitude towards me is a little strange?”

Xiao Wang was a little confused and asked, “Is it? I think Xiao Lingyu treats old master quite normal.”

“…” Old Master Gong waved his hand and said, “Forget it. You are as unobservant as usual.”

Then, Xiao Wang looked at Old Master Gong with hesitation in his eyes.

“Just say what’s on your mind. Don’t tell anyone you’re Gong Zhen’s personal guard since you don’t even dare to say something.” Old Master Gong ordered.

Xiao Wang stood up straight and immediately said, “Old Master, Auntie Chen went to the county town. Are we supposed to eat on our own today?”

Old Master Gong, “…”

Old Master Gong said with a dark expression, “The girl and her mom are both at the county town. Zhengyang is the only one at home. If you want to eat his cooking, then go ahead.”

“…” Xiao Wang immediately shook his head. “Old Master, I’ll follow you wherever you go!”

Mother Xiao’s cooking skills were superb, and Xiao Lingyu’s cooking was also passable. However, Father Xiao’s cooking skills… were very hard to describe.

The dishes he cooked were like pig’s food. Perhaps even pigs wouldn’t want them. It was too horrible!

They were from the same family. How could there be such a huge difference in their skill level?

At that moment, Xiao Zhengyang came over. He asked, “Elder Gong, are you going to my house for meals today?”

Xiao Wang was nervous when he heard that.

Old Master Gong shook his head and said, “Zhengyang, I had already asked my chef to cook before I left home. I won’t be visiting you today.”

“Oh, that’s great!” Xiao Zhengyang nodded. Then, he said, “Old Master, can you ask your chef to cook more? I’m planning to go over to your place for lunch today.”

Old Master Gong, “…”

Little Wang, “…”

What is this twist of fate?

Old Master Gong nodded and said, “Okay.”

Then, he instructed, “Xiao Wang, go and tell Xiao Zhao to cook more.”

“Yes!” Xiao Wang obeyed.

Xiao Zhengyang smiled and said, “Elder, let me accompany you!”
