Exile with Storage Space: Family Fortunes in the Barren Lands Chapter 156 Emergency Rescue (3)
The woman shouted angrily at her.
Mu Yuanxiu stood right next to Li Yuzhu, worried that the woman might hit her, and imdiately stood in front of Li Yuzhu to shield her.
Li Xing’an also squeezed through the crowd and stood next to Li Yuzhu.
Completely puzzled, he glanced around and asked the Second Young Master, "Second brother, what’s going on?"
"They’re accusing us of selling poisonous baked cakes, and causing a scene here." The Second Young Master sneered, "This is clearly slander."
"I need to save your son!" Li Yuzhu shouted to the woman, "Hurry up, or it will be too late!"
"Alright, if you can’t save my son, you have to pay!" The woman sneered.
Li Yuzhu didn’t respond, but quickly pulled over the little boy,
holding him in front of her, she pressed firmly on his abdon, after several compressions, the little boy let out a big cough and spat out a large chunk of dry cake.
It was stuck quite hard, with traces of blood on it.
Once the thing ca out, the child burst into tears.
"Alright, he’s fine now." Li Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Because she was so tense, her fingers kept trembling.
Sothing stuck in the throat, if left for too long, could be fatal.
"Mom, woooo—" The little boy walked towards his mother, crying nonstop.
"You worthless child, can’t even eat properly? Choking yourself like this!" The woman raised her hand, intending to hit the child.
But Mu Yuanxiu reached out and stopped her.
He said coldly, "First you bla the seller, then you bla the child for eating. The cakes were bought by you, right? If anyone hard the child, it was you, wasn’t it? If you hadn’t bought them, how could he have choked?"
Soone in the crowd said, "Yeah, it’s clear the child had sothing stuck, yet you claim the cakes are poisoned. How unreasonable you are."
Another person said, "You kept feeding the child, he hadn’t even swallowed before you made him eat more. Who wouldn’t choke in that situation?"
The woman looked embarrassed and flustered on the spot.
She looked at Liu Da Niu, "Da Niu, why aren’t you helping your aunt? I’m being scolded here."
Liu Da Niu responded with a calm face, "Cousin aunt, you were wrong from the start, how could I help?"
The woman got so angry, her face turned blue, pointing at Liu Da Niu, she coldly laughed, "A woman who can’t bear children, never gets married! I kindly found a match for you, yet you don’t appreciate it and talk back to your aunt like this? Hmph, I must have been blind to arrange a marriage for you!" She also gave a sideways glance to Hu Shuangcheng standing next to Liu Da Niu, "You’re a useless person too, having written the divorce letter, yet you’re courting to be a son-in-law. Aren’t you afraid of disgracing your Hu Family?"
She angrily dragged her son away.
The child, having been choked by the food for a while, coughed and cried intermittently.
Li Yuzhu, feeling sorry for the child, shouted at the woman’s back, "Let the child eat so soft warm food at ho, and avoid hard or spicy foods for the next couple of days."
The woman ignored her and left.
The onlookers, seeing the show was over, also left in twos and threes.
"Oh, I was scared to death just now." The Second Princess patted her chest, holding Li Yuzhu’s arm, "Third sister, thank goodness you ca. Otherwise, I would have been dood."
"I’m really sorry, Miss Li." Liu Da Niu said apologetically, "That woman was my third cousin aunt, she had a fight with my mom, and seeing here, she thought the cakes were mine, so she caused a disturbance on purpose."
"How ridiculous, if she’s had argunts with her, why not find her directly? Why make trouble here?" The Great Princess sneered.
"My little sister-in-law was unjustly implicated and scolded, and just one apology from you is enough?" The Xue Family sneered at Liu Da Niu.
She had long harbored a grudge about Liu Da Niu coming to live at their house.
Liu Da Niu felt guilty in her heart, and even more so being questioned by the Xue Family, "I’m really sorry, next ti... next ti I see my cousin aunt, I will definitely give her a piece of my mind."
"Hmph, next ti, who knows when that will be?" The Xue Family rolled their eyes.
Liu Da Niu hung her head and said nothing.
Hu Shuangcheng walked up to the Xue Family and bowed deeply, "Sorry for causing you trouble."
The Xue Family smiled, "What’s this? Scene after scene? Are we in the wrong if we don’t agree?"
Hu Shuangcheng was taken aback, not knowing what to say.
"Sister-in-law, that’s enough, it wasn’t their fault. Every family has a troubleso relative, right?" Li Yuzhu glanced at the Xue Family and asked Mu Yuanxiu, "Isn’t that right, Mu Yuanxiu?"
Mu Yuanxiu raised his brow slightly, "Your relatives even wanted to sell you, yet I didn’t mind having you as my neighbor."
"Ha, well said!" What a talker, Li Yuzhu laughed.
Because she saw that the Xue Family’s eyebrows and nose were twitching in anger.
"By the way, Second Sister, how many cakes did you sell?" Li Yuzhu walked over, lifting the lid on the jar to look inside.
Talking about business, the Second Princess beca happy.
"Sold out, after you left, Da Niu ca to help shout and sold everything." The Second Princess said proudly, "Four hundred and ten cakes, excluding those we gave away, I made three hundred and fifty-eight coins."
"Wow, so much money." The Great Princess snorted.
She had only earned a hundred coins today, and after buying a pair of earrings, there was nothing left.
"Big sister, if you need money, I can lend you so, but there’ll be interest, okay?" The Second Princess said with a smile.
"I won’t borrow! Want to earn interest from ? Hmph, keep dreaming!" The Great Princess snorted.
Li Yuzhu asked Liu Da Niu, "Did you buy anything when you ca to the market?"
Liu Da Niu smiled slightly, "I specifically ca to see you doing business, and was surprised that Second Girl was even better than I imagined, by the ti I arrived, she had almost sold out."
The Second Princess said proudly, "Yeah, when they ca, there were only about twenty cakes left in the jar."
"Da Niu, it’s still early, quickly go buy sothing, we’ll head back to the village together." Li Yuzhu said.
She noticed that Liu Da Niu’s basket was empty, with nothing inside.
Liu Da Niu glanced at Hu Shuangcheng, looking awkward, and nodded at Li Yuzhu, "We’re going to the pharmacy to buy dicine, it might take a long ti, you go ahead without us."
The Great Princess said, "Oh, what dicine are you buying? Tell my third sister, she knows herbs and can find cheap ones."
Liu Da Niu waved her hand, "No, no, it’s too troubleso, you guys have things to do." Rembering sothing, she said, "By the way, the cakes the Second Girl made sell well, next ti bring the stove, make and sell at the sa ti. These cakes are better eaten warm."
The Second Princess’s eyes lit up, nodding, "Yes, yes, this is a great idea."
Liu Da Niu waved goodbye to them, leaving with Hu Shuangcheng.
The Second Princess rubbed her little hands excitedly, "This morning I sold four hundred cakes in half a day, if we bring the stove, we might sell a thousand a day at the stall. That ans I could earn a tael of silver a day, hahaha, I’ve made it!"
