Travel to ancient times and become rich women with your bestie

The ice jelly business is as good as ever.

The weather was hot, and everyone had sold some of their goods, so they had some money. The journey back to the village was long, but a bowl of ice jelly for three cents gave them more energy to walk.

Soon, only a thin layer of ice jelly was left at the bottom of the bucket. The two of them collected their spoons and said, "Thank you all for your support. The ice jelly that our sisters brought today is sold out. Please come earlier next time."

Those who didn't buy anything left with regret, asking them to prepare more next time. The two smiled and nodded in agreement.

Someone who came from the town specifically to buy it complained: "Sister-in-law, why don't you come to this town every day to set up a stall? We have to run faster every time to buy your ice jelly. Wouldn't it be possible to make money every day by setting up a stall, and we can eat it anytime."

"Alas, we would like to come here every day, but the conditions do not allow it. Brother, you don't know that our home is a little far from the town. There are half-grown children at home and a lot of work to do. How can we run to the town every day? The work at home has piled up like a mountain."

"Besides, ice is hard to come by in the hot summer. If we come here every day, we won't be able to get enough ice."

Just kidding, with the consumption capacity of this town, they would lose all their money if they come here every day to sell ice jelly. The business is booming now because there are many people on market days, and the quantity they prepare is not large, and everyone is afraid that they will not be able to buy it if they don't buy it.

If we set up stalls in the town every day and people can come and buy at any time, people won't be so enthusiastic. Not only will the sales be slow, but after a long time, there will probably be a lot left.

In this time, they have plowed two acres of land at home.

But she couldn't say that, she just said that her family was far away, and emphasized how rare ice was. Next time, they would rush over as fast as possible, and they could also resolve the battle as quickly as possible, with full efficiency.

The three of them quickly packed up their things and got on the ox cart.

Although they gave Zhao Youwang twice as much money, there were five or six people waiting for them, so they couldn't delay too long. So many things happened today that they didn't have time to go to the market to buy anything, but fortunately, their family didn't need anything for the time being.

The three of them sat firmly, Zhao Youwang whipped the bull, and the old bull slowly moved forward.

Zheng Yuan took out a bowl of the ice jelly that had just been left in the bucket and poured a bowl for everyone on the bus.

"My dear uncles and aunts, I am really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long today. Please have a bowl of our homemade ice jelly."

In addition to Zhao Youwang and Zheng Yuan's family of three, there were six other people sitting on the ox cart including Liu Cuilan. They all had things from home to bring to the market to sell or had things to buy.

I had just seen Zheng Yuan and her team doing a booming business, and everyone in the car was waiting in boredom, which made me feel a little uncomfortable. Now when I saw Zheng Yuan handing me some ice jelly, I felt embarrassed to take it.

"Mother Dashu, what are you doing? We'll have something to worry about later. Your ice jelly costs only three cents a bowl, we can't afford to eat it."

A woman waved her hands to refuse. She was from Wang Fugui's family in the village.

"Yes, yes, how much would so many cost? Dashu Niang, you should get off the car and sell them for a while." Others also agreed.

You see, there are still simple people in the village.

"It's okay. It's home-made, so it's okay to eat some. The weather is so hot, everyone should cool down." Duan Minmin forcefully stuffed the bowl into Mrs. Wang's hand.

As soon as she took it in her hands, Wang's wife felt a chill on her hands. This was because it was iced. She couldn't put it down now and swallowed her saliva: "I'm so sorry. Thanks to you, I got to taste ice in the hot summer."

Seeing that she took it, the others in the car stopped pushing it. They thanked the two and took small sips of the hard-earned ice.

Zheng Yuan and the others have not forgotten Liu Cuilan. Although they also dislike the fact that she is a dog-skin plaster, they are all villagers and it is not appropriate to be too unkind to her.

Zheng Yuan scooped up a bowl and handed it to her: "Aunt, try one too."

Liu Cuilan folded her hands and refused to take it: "I dare not drink it. This three-cent bowl of ice jelly is really generous of Dashu Niang. She actually made so many bowls for us country folk to drink. It seems that she really made a lot of money. But you gave this ice jelly to these peasants. Does the manager know that you are wasting her ice like this?"

When the people in the car heard her say this, they stopped putting food into their mouths and looked at Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin in confusion.

They were not going to tolerate this weird attitude, Zheng Yuan quickly retracted her hand: "Erhe, your Granny Liu doesn't like this ice jelly, you drink it."

Erhe stared blankly at the extra bowl of ice jelly in his hand, not knowing whether he should drink it or not.

"Sister-in-law, Auntie, you guys can drink too. I can afford the ice jelly, and the manager Zhang is not such a stingy person. Besides, it's just a few bowls of ice jelly, what's wrong with us country people having a sip? If you ask me, what's the difference between country people and city people? They all have one nose and two eyes, and they need to eat and poop. How can they be more noble than country people? Some people can't even stand up on their own, and they want everyone to kneel like them."

After hearing her say this, the people in the car picked up the ice jelly and put it to their mouths. That's right, Dashu Niang didn't say anything, so why are you, Liu Po, saying so much? You keep calling people mud-legged and country folk, really belittling yourself and scolding everyone in the car at the same time.

Erhe also raised the ice jelly and thought happily: I can't bear to drink more of this ice jelly that costs three cents a bowl. I served it to her carefully, but she still said something nonsense. Forget it if she doesn't drink it, it's a good bargain for me.

Thinking of this, he deliberately turned to Liu Cuilan, put big mouthfuls of the food into his mouth, and sighed with satisfaction.

Liu Cuilan's face turned black.

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin knew exactly what he was thinking. They looked at his exaggerated expression with amusement but did not stop him.

Everyone slowly finished the ice jelly in their bowls and passed the bowls to Zheng Yuan: "No wonder your business is so good. Not to mention the ice, even the amount of brown sugar is something you can't get anywhere else. It's really thanks to you that I can drink such delicious ice jelly today."

Others couldn't help but start chatting with them.

In the past, these two old ladies were the terrors of the village. They had bad tempers and were not easy to mess with. Whenever they saw them, they would act as if they owed them a few hundred taels of silver.

Why is it that after the two of them reconciled during this period of time, I feel that their whole demeanor has changed. They are so kind and friendly that people can't help but want to get closer to them.

I couldn't help asking a lot of questions.

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin could see that they didn't want to find out any information, but just wanted to have a conversation with them. They both avoided the main point and answered their questions one by one.

Seeing that no one else was paying attention to her, Liu Cuilan felt a little embarrassed. At the same time, she also felt a little regretful. Why did she try so hard just now? She only had a dry vegetable dumpling this morning, and now she was thirsty and hungry. Seeing that everyone in the car was drinking a bowl of ice jelly, Liu Cuilan wanted to slap herself. That bowl of ice jelly cost three cents.

But what she had just said made her too embarrassed to ask for another drink. She could only turn away with disdain, secretly swallowing her saliva.

Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin naturally saw her little actions, but they didn't care to pay attention to her. This is how she is. The more you pay attention to her, the more she will get angry. Now that she turned her head away, they were happy to be left alone.

The atmosphere in the car was very good, and everyone relaxed as they talked. They talked about a lot of gossip in the village, and Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin's eyes were sparkling, like little mice who had stolen oil to eat.

Except for Liu Cuilan, she isolated the entire group of people.
