Mr. Li Sanye had come here secretly many times, and nothing happened every time before.

Who would have thought that when he reached the entrance of the alley, he saw a group of people gathered around a stall not far away, apparently buying buns, but... there was a woman carrying a basket and seemed to be cursing.

"Bah! It's cheap and delicious, but I think there's something wrong with the food you made."

He couldn't hear clearly what was being said in the bustling morning market, but Uncle Li was afraid that the two children might get into trouble, so he hurried over.

But because there were too many people buying buns, he couldn't squeeze in and could only stand by another stall and worry.

A customer who came to buy buns couldn't help it anymore. He knew a thing or two about this woman and never thought of turning the tables and blaming her for the two children.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he just stood there and talked to the woman while eating: "Oh my, isn't this the wife of Liu Yiwan from the morning market? Why is she throwing a tantrum here because she can't buy buns?"

Some people who knew about it saw someone else come forward and started talking: "You said that other people's buns have problems, but yours are the problem, right?"

Some people who bought buns knew what the second questioner meant.

Liu was so angry that she wanted to bite her teeth to pieces, but thinking about her purpose this year, she was not afraid of how many people were around the stall: "I just came out to buy some vegetables for the boss, and I came here to ask about the buns. How can you treat me like this?"

The morning market is not a big place, but it is not small either. However, Shen Wu was only focused on selling buns and went home after selling them. He had no idea that someone was doing the same business with him.

The people who were waiting to buy buns couldn't help but scold the old woman because she had no conscience and was ruining other people's business because she couldn't sell her own buns.

"Everyone knows that Liu's shop had a problem with the buns sold by the young boss a while ago. You are too embarrassed to leave the house, so how dare you come here to cause trouble?"

During the days when the two bosses didn't come because of the rain, her business was very popular. However, due to the short weight, poor service, unpalatable fillings and high prices, gradually no one went there.

Ever since the rain, the two young shop owners continued to sell their buns, and customers rushed over. No one went to the Liu family shop to buy buns anymore, and they all came to the two kids' stall.

Now that the Liu family shop has come here, it is obvious that they are looking for trouble.

Shen Wu was wrapping buns when he heard the customer's words and thought to himself, so that's how it is.

She smiled at the guest who made the noise and handed the bun over: "Please eat slowly. The buns with new fillings may be a little hot."

Shen Wu didn't intend to pay any attention to this divine gold, nor did he reply, nor did he let Gu Zhou close the door. The two of them just concentrated on selling buns.

Although there were many people, some of them were just there to watch the fun. In fact, those who bought buns were regular customers. They were busy selling a basket of shepherd's purse and a basket of tofu.

She was not in a hurry. She stretched herself while no one was around and went to Gu Zhou to comfort him: "Don't worry about her. This is almost..."

Although Gu Zhou showed no emotion on the surface, he was furious inside. He tried to retort several times, but was always shut up by Shen Wu's words about giving him money. After a few times, he understood what Shen Wu meant, which was not to let him retort and to ignore this person.

As for the opportunity she mentioned? Gu Zhou was a little confused.

Shen Wu stretched her waist. She was indeed a little tired from being half-bent over making buns. She stopped and took advantage of the old woman's temptation to start her plan of attracting new customers.

The buns that she had broken open before were wrapped up and put aside. Now she opened them again and took them out as samples for display.

"Take a look! These delicious and filling tofu buns are only seven cents each!"

Before Liu came here, she had never thought that these two kids were so difficult to deal with. They had thicker skins than the town wall, yet they could still sell buns and shout without changing their expressions. She was so angry that she immediately got furious.

"Seven coins! You are probably robbing people!" Liu sneered, shaking the bamboo basket on her arm and continued: "I have lived in this town for so many years, and I have never seen such shameless kids like you. You dare to sell the steamed buns that everyone has at home for seven coins! You are probably robbing people!"

Liu's voice became louder and louder as she spoke, and she wished she could lure all the people who were visiting the morning market over so they could all see the behavior of these two black-hearted brothers.

She was being aggressive, and some men buying buns here couldn't help it!

I don't know which man in the queue replied first: "You shameless woman, you still have the nerve to come here. It rained a few days ago and the two shopkeepers didn't come to set up their stalls, so you followed their lead to sell buns. You are the winner, but who knew that your buns were expensive, small, and tasted terrible. You went to buy buns and showed them to others with such a shamelessness! Later, when you couldn't sell them, you blamed people for not knowing the goods. Now that no one comes to your stall, you come to the shopkeeper's place to rummage around. You are really getting more shameless as you live longer!"

These words touched the hearts of many people who came to buy buns. Many of them had tried the buns in Liu's shop during the days when the shopkeeper didn't set up the stall. They found the buns expensive and unpalatable. They also looked depressed and complained that they had never eaten good food. Now they are making a fuss just because they didn't make any money by imitating others and thought the shopkeeper had no work to do?

All those who had been looked down upon by Liu came to help oppose her. At first, they could still tolerate it, but the more Liu talked, the more disgusting it became. Although the two young shopkeepers were small and timid, they were very honest.

"Don't try to make trouble here. You don't know the street price for a pancake. It's six cents a piece! The two shopkeepers only charge seven cents for a big bun. You try to imitate them and buy one for seven cents. But your buns are not even half as good as theirs. Not to mention how bad they taste. My brother's bun skin is raw when he eats your buns!"

"You!...You!..." Liu was so angry with this group of people. Seeing that these people had been silent, she thought they were easy to control, but she was bitten instead. Just when she was about to open her mouth to fight back, her son and daughter-in-law grabbed her by the corner of her clothes.

"Mom, stop making a fuss and go home quickly." Liu's son followed his wife here after hearing the news. He didn't even bother to greet the shop staff and just asked an old waiter to greet them first, for fear that if he arrived too late, his mother might have done something bad.

Liu was very stubborn and would not be dragged away easily. She got angry when she saw her son's good-for-nothing behavior, but she didn't want to embarrass herself in public, so she went back with a gloomy face to fight with them.

Liu's son and daughter-in-law tried to coax her like a baby, and finally pulled their mother away.

Before leaving, he bowed deeply to the two shopkeepers selling buns and apologized for his mistake. He also bowed to the onlookers around him and then left in a hurry.

Shen Wu completely ignored him. It wasn't that she ignored him, but she just didn't have time to pay attention. Gu Zhou was the same. He was too busy to look up. He was always taking money for the buns and appeasing the customers who helped him. Who had time to care about outsiders?

Some of the people who came to sell buns were onlookers. Seeing that the buyers were very excited and the buns were big, they also wanted to join in the fun and try something new. Seeing that the two young shopkeepers not only did not feel aggrieved but instead comforted the customers who bought buns, they couldn't help but exclaimed curiously: "Why are the young shopkeepers comforting us? People are here to cause trouble for you."

Shen Wu put the empty backpack behind her, and Gu Zhou helped her put a new stack of oil paper on it. She wrapped the buns and replied with a smile: "This is the first time for us two brothers to do business. We must have done something wrong to make the old lady unhappy. Instead of arguing with her, it is better to do our own business first, and then talk about it."

She handed over the oil paper bag and continued, "Besides... it's just a few words. Those who have eaten our buns know how they taste. We won't stop selling them just because of her words."

The shopkeeper's confidence in his own buns somewhat shocked the guest who came to join in the fun. He turned his back to the people behind him and made way for them and stood aside. He felt very curious and wanted to try what made the buns so delicious.

When you open the bun, you will find a steaming big soft bun inside. Although the skin is thick, the juice from the filling seeps through to the surface of the skin, making it look greasy red, which makes people feel hungry immediately.

He quickly took a tofu one to try. The skin was soft and the filling was salty and fragrant. He couldn't help but eat several bites before stopping to look at the hot stall.

No wonder, the taste is indeed better than many other shops in the morning market, not to mention the big buns which weigh more than one kilogram. After eating several bites, there is still more than half of it, and the stuffing is so full that it seems to overflow from the bitten place. It is very affordable to sell one bun at seven cents, and you will make a profit if you buy it.

Uncle Li San watched the old woman being dragged away from afar, and he finally felt relieved. He thought about going forward to help, but when he saw the customers gathered in front of the stall, he gave up. He watched for a while before returning to Uncle Li and telling him what happened today.
