In the shop where business is getting more and more prosperous, Shen Yan is still busy, serving food and collecting money for customers. Her smile is as warm as the spring breeze, making every customer feel her sincerity and dedication.

At the same time, the expressions of Wang Lao Da and Wang Juan gradually became awkward.

They originally thought they were here to damage Shen Yan's business, but they didn't expect that Wang Jun's shouting would make Shen Yan's business booming, making them seem a little redundant here.

Wang Lao Da felt bad about being criticized by other customers, and he hurriedly pulled Wang Juan to leave this embarrassing place. But when they were about to leave, an old man suddenly stopped them.

"Young man, are you Shen Yan's family?"

The old man's voice was a little dignified, but his eyes revealed a deep concern.

Boss Wang hesitated for a moment, then nodded. They didn't know who the old man was, but they felt his kindness and concern.

The old man smiled and said, "You are her family, so you should be proud of her. Look, she runs this stall with her own hands and heart, and has received recognition and support from so many people. Isn't this a great thing?"

Boss Wang and Wang Juan were stunned. They didn't expect someone to speak to them like that.

In this strange environment, they felt an inexplicable warmth and comfort.

"You should be proud of her and support her instead of getting in the way here."

The old man's tone was gentle, but it carried an unquestionable authority.

Boss Wang and Wang Juan were silent. They understood what the old man meant and realized their mistakes.

They left the stall silently, but felt an inexplicable discomfort in their hearts.

Soon, a group of people sat down next to the stall and started eating. Soon, one group left and another group came, one after another.

Shen Yan was afraid that the leftover unsold food would get cold, so she covered it with a thick quilt.

Although it was past lunchtime today and there weren't many people, Shen Yan had sold about 10 to 20 copies just now, so the income was pretty good.

Besides, Shen Yan didn't prepare as much rice as yesterday, so she wasn't in a hurry whether it could be sold out. If she had known that business would be worse today, she might as well have prepared for a rainy day.

After Wang Jun finishes helping out here, he has to go to the academy to study in the afternoon.

A child of Wang Jun's age is at the peak of his studies and cannot be delayed by doing business. What's more, setting up a stall to sell food is not a long-term solution.

Shen Yan looked at the light in Wang Jun's eyes and felt that it was just like the look of longing to study that she had when she was a child.

In this era, it is such a happy thing to be able to read.

There were fewer and fewer people around, and Shen Yan also started to take a steamed bun and eat some vegetables.

This fried tofu is so delicious.

Shen Yan felt very happy while eating and was amazed at her own cooking skills.

When Wang Lao Da and Wang Juan saw that there were not as many people as before, they came over to cause trouble again.

"Sister Yan, we are your uncles and aunts after all. Stop standing there and serve us some food. It's so cold, you don't want to freeze us to death, do you?"

Shen Yan didn't want them to take advantage of her at all, so she simply held out her hand with a smile: "Three cents for vegetarian dishes, eight cents for meat dishes, pay for it."

Upon hearing this, Boss Wang was so angry that he almost overturned Shen Yan's cart.

Boss Wang's face darkened immediately. Seeing the customers around him looking at him curiously, he lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, "Shen Yan, what's your attitude? Are you deliberately making things difficult for us because we're short of money?"

Shen Yan still kept smiling, her voice calm and firm: "Uncle, this is a small business, everyone is treated the same, no special treatment. If you want to eat, of course you are welcome, but this rule cannot be broken."

Wang Juan pulled at the corner of Wang Lao Da's clothes and whispered to him, "Forget it, stop making trouble. Isn't this embarrassing for us?"

But Boss Wang was so angry that he could not listen.

"Shen Yan, don't go too far!"

Boss Wang said angrily, reaching out to grab Shen Yan's cart and trying to overturn it.

Seeing this, Shen Yan hurriedly steadied the cart. Customers around also gathered around, some shouted to stop her, while others took out drawing paper to draw the scene. The scene became very chaotic for a while.

At this moment, Wang Jun rushed over. He quickly walked in front of Boss Wang, pressed his arm hard, and said seriously, "Uncle, what are you doing? Are you embarrassing yourself in public?"

Boss Wang was stunned by Wang Jun's sudden stop, and his momentum weakened a lot.

Wang Jun turned to Shen Yan and said apologetically: "Sister, I'm sorry, I'm late. I didn't expect this to happen."

Shen Yan waved her hand, indicating that it was okay, and then said to Wang Lao Da and Wang Juan: "Uncle, Auntie, let's stop here for today. If there are any misunderstandings in the future, we can slowly talk about it. Now please go back and don't continue what happened today."

Boss Wang looked at the crowd and finally couldn't continue the commotion. He just snorted and dragged Wang Juan away from the scene.

Wang Jun stayed to help Shen Yan tidy up the messy cart. The customers around him gradually dispersed, and some of them were still praising Shen Yan's way of doing things.

"You should go to school quickly. Don't be late. The teacher will scold you." Shen Yan urged Wang Jun to leave. In fact, she could handle it alone. Although Boss Wang seemed aggressive on the surface, he was actually a coward inside.

Shen Yan started to get busy again. Although she felt a little upset, she knew that such days would continue.

In fact, when Wang Jun hadn't come back yet, Shen Yan was ready to pick up a kitchen knife and fight with Wang Lao Da and his wife. Who allowed them to bully others like this? Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that they had exploited Aunt Wang's family in every way before.

After what happened just now, Wang Lin was almost scared to tears and hid behind Shen Yan.

"Sister, they are bullying again!"

Shen Yan looked at Wang Lin hiding behind her, and while comforting her, she gently patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid, Lin'er, they have left and will not bother you again."

Wang Lin raised her moist eyes, looked at Shen Yan and said, "Sister, why do they always treat us like this? We didn't provoke them."

Shen Yan shook her head gently, revealing a hint of helplessness in her expression: "They don't say it, but they are actually afraid of us. Although their family has some status, they can only rely on a few civil and military commoners to survive here."

Suddenly, she looked up and saw Boss Wang and Wang Juan standing opposite her again. Her gaze was like a sharp sword, making them gasp.

Boss Wang and Wang Juan were frightened by Shen Yan's sharp gaze and dared not look directly at her. They felt the unparalleled aura from Shen Yan and couldn't help feeling timid.
