Chapter 56 The old man's troubles come

Jiang Yimo and Concubine Xian both smiled when they heard this. This old man was such an honest person. If it wasn't for the sake of survival, Jiang Yimo really felt that he was not suitable for doing business.

Afterwards, Jiang Yimo and the others picked out their favorite lanterns one by one, and the old man helped to hold the lanterns for everyone.

Their large display soon attracted the attention of several stall owners selling lanterns nearby.

All the stall owners gathered around.

One of the stall owners, who was about 30 years old, said sarcastically, "Hey, old man Li, you're so lucky today. You got a big deal."

Hearing this, Old Man Li glanced at the stall owner awkwardly and said, "How can I compare to Boss Zheng's business? I heard that you sold more than a dozen lanterns as soon as you opened your stall tonight. I was lucky tonight and met these kind-hearted girls who helped me clear out some of my inventory."

After hearing what the old man said, the stall owner didn't say anything else, but his eyes were looking at Jiang Yimo.

Jiang Yimo's stunning beauty attracted him deeply and he couldn't take his eyes off her.

"Girl, you like lanterns, I can give you some."

"Thank you. We like the lanterns made by this old man. We have already chosen one."

Jiang Yimo immediately rejected him, knowing in her heart that this young boss had ill intentions towards her.

But he was too blind. Didn’t he see that there were a group of men standing behind them?

"It's okay, I can give you a few too."

The stall owner continued to shamelessly provoke her.

But Jiang Yimo didn't want to pay any attention to her at all, and immediately took out a large amount of silver from her sleeve and prepared to give it to the old man.

But Shadow took the initiative to give the silver to the old man, because his prince reminded him in advance and asked him to pay.

The old man looked at the heavy silver in his hand, was stunned, and thought to himself: This silver is too much, he can't earn so much silver even if he sells lanterns for a year.

After being stunned for a moment, the old man immediately called out to Shadow.

"Sir, you gave me too much money. I can't give you change."

"It's okay, old man. If you can't find change, don't bother." Shadow replied.

"How can I do that? This piece of silver is worth the money I earn from selling lanterns for a year! How about you guys give me the money for the lanterns when you go to the night market next time? From now on, I, an old man, will sell lanterns on this street every two days."

The old man refused to accept the small change.

Seeing this, Jiang Yimo also persuaded him to accept the silver from Shadow.

"Grandpa, just accept this piece of silver. These lanterns of yours are not only beautiful and sturdy, but also very novel. They are worth so much silver."

In the end, the old man couldn't win the argument with Jiang Yimo and the others, so he had to accept the change.

This scene made the stall owner so jealous that he was going crazy. The other stall owners around him and the onlookers were envious of him.

This old guy only sold more than twenty lanterns and got such a large piece of silver.

They estimated that the piece of silver was worth more than one or two taels, while he only earned a hundred coins from selling lanterns for a whole night. Thinking of this, he became jealous and crazy.

At this time, more and more people gathered around the old man's stall. It was not convenient for him to vent his anger on the old man, so he had to endure it and wait for Jiang Yimo and the others to leave. Then he would find a chance to teach the old man a lesson and warn him.

When Jiang Yimo saw the old man accept the piece of silver, everyone left the old man's stall, playing with the lanterns in their hands.

And the stall owner who had always wanted to tease Jiang Yimo saw that Jiang Yimo didn't want to pay attention to him, so he no longer shamelessly made trouble for himself. After all, there was a group of people with swords and sharp eyes behind her. It was obvious that these people were not easy to mess with, and he didn't have the habit of seeking death.

But after Jiang Yimo, Concubine Xian and their group left, the young stall owner took the lead and approached the old man's stall to start looking for trouble.

"Old man Li, today's business is really good. I made a few taels of silver in one night."

The young stall owner said this with a grin, and his expression made the old man feel a little scared.

"Haha, Boss Zheng, you're joking. I was just lucky tonight and met a good person."

"Oh! Good luck? I warned you before, old man, not to steal our business. What did you do tonight?"

As Boss Zheng spoke, he reached out and grabbed the old man's neck.

"Hurry up and take out your small change to compensate us for our losses."

After hearing this, the old man closed his eyes slightly and spoke slowly: "Zheng Kaitai, I am your uncle after all. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning if you treat me like this?"

"I don't even have any money to spend, so why should I be afraid of being struck by lightning? Stop talking so much nonsense and give me the silver coins quickly."

Zheng Kaitai only cares about money and would never listen to what the old man says.

The old man did not get angry but asked him calmly, "Did you lose money gambling again recently?"

"What's it to you? You don't have the money to pay my debt."

Zheng Kaitai spoke so confidently even when he lost money in gambling.

"You are such a piece of shit. Xiaoyu is going to give birth next month, and you still dare to fool around out there." The old man looked at him and scolded.

"She can give birth if she wants. Don't other women have to give birth? She's the only one who's so delicate!"

Zheng Kaitai said indifferently that it would be better for him if the yellow-faced woman in his family died, then he could marry a beautiful bride like the one just now.

If he could marry a wife like this and sleep with her for one night, he would think it was worth it even if he died tomorrow.

Thinking of the beautiful lady just now, his heart began to beat fast.

The old man looked at Zheng Kaitai's evil face and knew what the boy was thinking. He raised his hand and slapped him in the face, cursing: "Beast!"

However, this action instantly angered Zheng Kaitai.

Zheng Kaitai suddenly grabbed the old man by the collar with both hands and threw him to the ground.

"How dare this old man hit me!"

"See if I don't kick you to death!"

After Zheng Kaitai said this, he raised his foot and was about to kick the old man in the stomach.

The other vendors and onlookers around did not dare to step forward to stop it and could only watch Zheng Kaitai kick the old man in the stomach.

But at this moment, a silver needle flew out from a distance and pierced directly into Zheng Kaitai's raised calf. Then, everyone heard a scream: "Ah!!!"

"Who, who is plotting against me?"

"I!"

After that, Jiang Yimo and Concubine Xian walked out from behind the crowd.
