Chapter 48 Making things difficult

  Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou went to the grain shop near the market.

  On the way, Su Ergou excitedly asked his sister: "Sister, how long do we have to sell?"

   "Up to three days." Su Xiaoxiao's novel.

  The Chinese New Year is approaching, and there are fewer and fewer customers in the town. Their business seems to be unaffected. The main reason is that there are many repeat customers. Everyone is thinking about buying new year's goods, but once the new year is over, almost no one comes out to buy.

   "It's only been three days." Su Ergou was disappointed.

  Su Xiaoxiao looked at him amusedly: "You like selling cakes so much?"

   "Yes." Su Ergou nodded.

  Su Xiaoxiao said: "It's cold and freezing, and people point fingers at you. Don't you feel tired and annoying? In summer, it's hot and sunny, and you may suffer from heat stroke. Don't you think it's better to lie down at home?"

  Su Ergou shook his head like a rattle: "But if you lie down at home, you will be hungry."

Su Xiaoxiao felt emotional, and raised his hand to touch the back of his head: "I won't make you hungry again in the future."

  With the launch of new products, they need more and more types of ingredients. Yesterday she ordered 20 catties of glutinous rice flour, 30 catties of sugar, 50 catties of flour and 100 duck eggs in the shop.

  The salted egg yolks used in the egg yolk crisps are pickled by herself. She doesn’t know if Capital City sells salted duck eggs, anyway, there are none in the town.

  As soon as the egg yolk cake came out, it immediately became the new favorite of everyone.

   However, due to the high cost of egg yolk cakes, the price is also sold at twenty-five yuan a piece, and the student reservation is twenty-three yuan.

   This price is still cheaper than Kam Kee’s dim sum, so it sells well.

  The two came to the food store and unexpectedly met their eldest aunt Huang.

  Ever since she had a bad nose at Xiao Su's house last time, Mrs. Huang has hated Su Fatty. She has been thinking about how to get back the place, but coincidentally, this fat guy came to her door!

   "Hey, I know who it is, isn't this the little thankless wretch that I don't know well?"

  Hearing Huang's yin and yang words, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing.

   "What are you laughing at?" Huang said with a sullen face.

  Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "I laugh at my aunt who can't speak, so don't say it, so as not to lose the face of the scholar's son."

  Ms. Huang threw her head down angrily: "You——"

Su Xiaoxiao said bluntly: "What am I? My aunt didn't give birth to me, and secondly, she didn't raise me. How come I became a thankless wretch who didn't know how to raise me? I really want to say thankless wretch, sucking the blood and sweat of my sister-in-law who passed away, and treating me harshly.Don't you look more like the aunt of the two children of the deceased sister-in-law?"

   Mrs. Huang has already experienced this girl's eloquence, but she can experience it again, and she is still so angry!

   She pointed at Su Xiaoxiao's nose: "You, you, you...don't be so arrogant, girl! Your cousin is going to study in Prefecture City soon! When he is admitted to Master Juren, you guys will look good on him!"

   If you are admitted as a scholar, you don’t have to kneel down to the magistrate, and if you are admitted to the master of Juren, it will only be more beautiful!

  Thinking of this, Huang finally felt better.

  She straightened her waist and said: "Damn girl, just wait and see! The first thing your cousin did was drive you out of town!"

Get kicked out of the town, what a big tone!

  However, Master Juren is indeed very rare in this dynasty, especially in such a remote town, there are very few of them.

  Chen Haoyuan can't really win the exam, can he?

  Su Xiaoxiao's pensive look fell into Huang's eyes, which undoubtedly became a kind of guilty conscience and fear.

   Mrs. Huang is extremely proud!

   Let you offend me, now you know how powerful I am!

   "Girl! It's too late to regret it now! Even if you beg me on your knees, I can't agree to your marriage with Erlang!"

  Who will be your daughter-in-law!

   Is Wei Ting not handsome?Or is Wei Ting's waist bad?

  However, Mrs. Huang was right in saying that after Chen Haoyuan was elected, the life of Xiao Su's family will not be easy.

   Mrs. Huang said to the shop owner: "You, don't do her business. In the future, my son will become a master of Juren, and he will come to your house to buy!"

   After finishing speaking, she walked away triumphantly.

  Su Ergou snorted: "I haven't passed the exam yet, but I'm going to call it first. Boss, here it is!"

  He handed the money bag to the boss.

  But the boss didn't answer.

   "What's wrong?" Su Ergou asked.

  The boss's eyes flashed, and he hesitated and said: "You, you can take the money back, there is no more flour, it is sold out."

   "Why not?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

  The boss said: "Sold out this morning!"

  Su Xiaoxiao said: "I made a reservation yesterday, you should sell it to me first."

   "I..." The boss was flustered by Su Xiaoxiao's eyes, and he turned around to organize the food bags, "Anyway, you can buy them elsewhere, I just don't have them here!"

Su Ergou said angrily: "Hey! You must be honest in business! You won't sell the flour you agreed on, what do you want us to make pancakes with? Don't you really believe her? Her son is just a scholar.Not a single stroke—who knows if it will hit?"

  The boss wondered: "I can't help it, girl, go buy it elsewhere!"

"you"

   "Forget it, Ergou, let's go."

  Su Xiaoxiao took Su Ergou out of the shop.

  Su Ergou complained: "Sister, why are you stopping me? He is a big man, how could he be bluffed by a woman?"

   "It's not the Huang family." Su Xiaoxiao's novel.

   Regarding the change of Su Xiaoxiao's address, Su Ergou adapted very quickly and felt extremely comfortable.

  Su Ergou asked suspiciously: "It's not her, what's going on? Why did the boss go back on his word and not sell it to us?"

Su Xiaoxiao had a guess in her mind, she thought about it, and said: "Let's go, go to another shop and ask."

  In the market, there used to be many stalls selling flour, all of them were folks from various villages. It was almost Chinese New Year, and they were leaving the stalls, so Su Xiaoxiao came to the shop to buy.

  Su Xiaoxiao remembers that there are two more nearby.

  However, when they came to buy, they all said they were sold out without exception.

   "Isn't that bag of white flour?" Su Ergou asked, pointing to a bag of flour in front of the counter.

  The boss of this house said with a sneer: "That... was ordered by someone else, and I paid all the money."

   "What about this?" Su Ergou found a bag of flour behind the rice jar again, "What are you hiding?"

  The boss smiled stiffly: "I, I eat at home, it's almost Chinese New Year."

  The two came out of the third shop.

  Su Ergou finally couldn't help it: "Sister, what's going on? In the past, during the Chinese New Year, flour was not so difficult to buy."

  Yeah, it’s not a year of disaster or famine, the price of food is stable, there shouldn’t be a shortage of supplies, not to mention that rice and wheat are not out of stock, only flour is gone.

   Really strange.

  Su Ergou said: "I remembered, there is also a rice noodle shop in Xitou, but it's a little far away. Sister, you wait for me here, I'll go buy it!"

   As he said, he put on the basket and was about to leave.

  Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No need, no one will sell it to us."

  Su Ergou was taken aback: "Why?"

  Su Xiaoxiao looked ahead and said calmly: "The business is so good that it hinders some people's eyes."

   Good morning
