Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Misunderstanding Chapter 178: Chapter 178 Misunderstanding Before anyone else could speak, she speculated, “When they ca to sell the winter lons today, I felt sothing was off. When do you see kids selling stuff? Would adults really be at ease?”
The mont that lady heard this, her expression suddenly beca sowhat displeased, “These kids are quite nice, why would you say sothing like that?”
Auntie: “…”
Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan glanced at each other, realizing that this lady wasn’t there to cause trouble.
Upon observing the few companions following her, she imdiately understood.
“Ma’am, did you call us over for sothing?” To be on the safe side, she still asked, “Was there not enough winter lon, or did they have worms? If that’s the case, I’ll bring one over tomorrow to exchange for you.”
“No, no.” Seeing that Shen Mianmian had misunderstood, the lady quickly clarified, “The winter lons are really good; I’m here to bring people to buy winter lons. Did you sell out of them so quickly?”
When she had left in the morning, she saw there was still a full cart.
After returning ho, she specifically weighed it, and it matched the weight Shen Mianmian had given. Upon cutting one open and seeing the good quality inside, she bragged to her neighbors about how she had gotten winter lons for a good price, with the added bonus of having them delivered to her door.
The mont she ntioned it, others wanted to buy as well.
So, here she was, leading people to buy. She had thought there would definitely be a few left, but to her surprise, a cartful of winter lons had sold that quickly.
She was even happier inside; with so many people buying, it indicated that the product was good, and she felt she had made it just in ti.
Indeed, they had co to buy winter lons.
Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan were both pleased.
She sweetly said, “Ma’am, we sold out of winter lons today, but we’ll have more tomorrow if you want to buy.”
Upon hearing they had truly sold out, the lady imdiately turned to the companions she brought with her and boasted, “See, I told you their winter lons are good and affordable. It hasn’t been long at all! A whole cart of winter lons sold out.”
She pointed at the empty ox cart, “You see, even the bamboo baskets are sold out.”
Hearing this, the companions quickly asked Shen Mianmian.
“Miss, what ti will you and your brother co tomorrow?” Seeing Shen Mianmian was quite shorter than Lu Siyuan, and looking quite young, they assud the two were siblings.
Shen Mianmian, delighted inside, didn’t notice this minor detail, “Around eight o’clock.”
“And will you still help deliver?”
Shen Mianmian’s eyes sparkled as she looked at the few ladies nearby, “How many do you want?”
The group exchanged glances, beginning to discuss how many winter lons they wanted to buy.
“Don’t look at , I’ve already bought mine,” said the lady who started the winter lon purchase.
After consulting with each other, the ladies decided to buy one each, “Miss, we’ll take four.”
“Okay,” Shen Mianmian suppressed the joy in her heart and readily agreed, “Ma’am, tomorrow morning at eight, we’ll bring the winter lons right over.”
Lu Siyuan, who had already visited, knew where the lady lived, so they could just drive the ox cart over in the morning.
“That works.”
Older people don’t usually sleep well, so they’re accustod to getting up early; none of them thought eight o’clock was too early.
After agreeing, Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan were ready to leave when one of the ladies noticed there was one last bamboo basket on the ox cart and asked to see it. Lu Siyuan hurriedly handed it to her.
The ladies gathered around to have a look, all saying it was nice, and, thrilled, that lady imdiately bought the last one as well.
Seeing the two sell their last bamboo basket and secure orders for the next day, the auntie at the neighboring stand felt even more envious. If only she had known, she wouldn’t have held their ox cart back.
