At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

Gu Ermiao seemed to be completely defenseless and revealed the truth to everyone with a smile.

"To be honest, uncles and aunts, this thing is made from unwanted sour dates. Even though they're incredibly sour when they're growing on the tree, when I make them, they're sour yet sweet, and absolutely delicious!"

When everyone heard the word "sour jujube", their mouths immediately filled with saliva. They completely ignored what Gu Ermiao said afterwards, "Everyone in the town's candied fruit shops is scrambling for it" and "Many people can't buy it even though they have money."

Except of course Xiangzhi.

After the sound of gurgling saliva, someone tried to make amends in an attempt to cover up the truth.

"Me, we are so old now, it's not that we are greedy, we are just curious!"

"That's right! Xiangzhi, we all know that you and Mrs. Gu are not stingy people. She generously gave it to you, so why don't you generously share it with us?"

"Hearing Er Miao's words, my mouth is watering..."

"..."

Lin Qing didn't want to bother with this group of people anymore, so he immersed his attention in the mall to see if there were any new products.

Xiangzhi saw that these men who usually avoided her suddenly changed their nature and all smiled and spoke sincerely, and she couldn't help but clench her teeth.

This is not the respect she wants!

She was so angry that she wanted to refuse, but she was afraid of losing more than she gained and causing more criticism.

She was very scheming and immediately came up with a plan.

Why didn't she throw the dirty water back on Lin Qing?

That’s right, that’s it!

Xiangzhi reluctantly opened the paper package, gave each person a piece or two, and said meaningfully:

"No wonder I keep seeing Sanmu picking sour dates these past few days. I was wondering what he wanted them for. Turns out Mrs. Gu has found a way to make money this way for some ulterior motive."

Xiangzhi pursed her lips and smiled, and her light words stirred up the situation again.

"Mrs. Gu, since your family already has a lucrative business like the steamed bun stall, why don't you teach us how to process sour dates?

"Of course, Mrs. Gu, if you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Xiangzhi was thinking very clearly at that time.

If Lin Qing is willing to teach, that's fine. If she is not willing, then I will take all the sour dates away in advance.

Anyway, it's an ownerless thing growing on the roadside. There's no reason why Lin Qing makes money from it but doesn't allow others to pick it and take it home.

Lin Qing just smiled at her without any intention of answering, but unexpectedly, Gu Damao, who was sitting next to her, suddenly spoke.

"Why don't you teach the embroidery skills to the people in the village so that everyone can make money together."

Xiangzhi refused without thinking.

"Why? That's my cooking skill!"

Gu Damao sneered and began to close his eyes to rest.

Xiangzhi then realized what stupid thing she had said.

Yes, if she didn’t want to teach others how to embroider, why would she ask Lin Qing to teach her how to make sour jujube cake?

Everyone in the car was eating sour jujube cakes, praising Lin Qing's cooking skills, and condemning Xiangzhi for being ungrateful, as if they had not had any intention at all from the beginning to the end.

The car started slowly, and a thin-faced man suddenly said, "Mrs. Gu, this small package can be sold for twenty coins. I don't know how long it took you to make it, but if you go there five or six times in half a month, you should make a lot of money, right? I just don't know when you plan to make money..."

Lin Qing said sincerely, "My fellow villagers extended a helping hand to my family when we were in the most difficult time. I will definitely not forget your kindness. I just don't know what this brother lent my family. After I sell the sour jujube cakes this time, I will definitely pay you back first."

Lin Qing had originally just been asking in a friendly manner, but unexpectedly the man's face flushed red, and the smile on his lips seemed a little forced.

Everyone in the car laughed even louder.

Gu Ermiao glanced at the man and exposed his lie to his face. "Mom, he never lent us anything."

Oh……

Lin Qing understood.

He really has a strong sense of justice.

After saying this, Gu Ermiao couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

I had basically paid off the borrowed money by selling buns, and had hoped to make more money from the business my mother had negotiated with the owner of the candied fruit shop, and use the money to slowly buy food and pay off the remaining debt.

He is responsible for delivering the sour jujube cakes. If my mother has other arrangements, she can leave the task to him from preparation to sale.

After all, he had made sour jujube cakes with his mother several times and had basically mastered the trick. He only needed to practice a little more and he would be able to make it.

But the man's words suddenly reminded him of what Brother Changqing said, that the drought in Anping Town had spread to many places, and that they could originally go to the next town to buy food at a slightly lower price, but now they might have to find another way.

The burly man sitting behind the horse at the front of the car suppressed everyone's chatter and brought Gu Ermiao back to his senses.

"Mrs. Gu, you're definitely smarter than the rest of us! Just look at how long those sour jujubes have been growing in Songsi Village, and no one ever imagined they could be used as snacks!"

After the man said this, he looked at Xiangzhi with a hint of contempt.

"You're from town, you've seen the world, haven't you? You usually look down on us, so how come you can only embroider, something that all the women in the village can do?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately joined in.

"Dachui is right. Mrs. Gu is really smart! But in my opinion, that bun stall is unnecessary. If you set up a stall in our village to treat patients, you will definitely make a fortune every day."

"Yes, yes, your abilities are much more powerful than what's described in the opera! After all, those are all fake, but your skills are real! We all saw with our own eyes how you saved Uncle Youzu!"

Xiangzhi, who was sitting next to Lin Qing, heard them mention Song Youzu and inexplicably thought of Song Dadong. She couldn't help shaking all over and her hands unconsciously clenched the small bag tightly, feeling that it weighed a thousand pounds.

She came to town today, all because of that bastard!

Song Dadong was drunk yesterday. I don't know what went wrong with him. He dared to come to Song Qin's house to threaten him and beat him up.

Song Qin was caught off guard and was beaten almost unconscious. Even so, he still reminded himself to run away quickly!

But Xiangzhi didn't move for some unknown reason, and begged with tears in her eyes.

"What do you want me to do to let us go?"

"you two?"

Song Dadong sneered, kicked the other person aside, and said viciously:

"You've already thought of a solution, why don't you just do it! That bitch Lin Qing deserves to be punished by a man! Not only did she provoke me, but she also made my brothers in Maitian unhappy!"

Song Qin was surprised when he heard him mention Song Maitian.

Song Dadong continued unscrupulously, "If you don't do as I say, I'll tell the whole village who the child's biological mother is! I want to see if you can still hold your head up when the time comes!"

Xiangzhi's whole body was stiff. She didn't dare to look at Song Qin's shocked expression, and she didn't want to look at Song Dadong's hateful face. She was so sad that she couldn't open her mouth.

She was born in a humble family and did not care much about reputation, considering reputation and integrity as nothing.

As soon as she married into Songsi Village, she was entangled by Song Dadong because of her beauty.

She didn't know whether she was greedy for the power of the son of the village chief, or because she couldn't adapt to the poor life of Song Qin's family, so she got together with Song Dadong half-heartedly.
