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

The man rubbed his hands on his clothes before taking the candied fruit, and then handed it to Zhao'er with eager eyes.

Under his encouraging gaze, Zhao'er bit her lip, carefully opened it, put a piece into her mouth, and her eyes immediately became red.

"Sure enough, Dad, the candied fruit is just as delicious as the rumors say. How wonderful it would be if I could eat it every day..."

The man wiped his tears and sobbed as if to say, "Yes."

But in fact, the meal tasted like chewing wax. After swallowing it with difficulty, he wrapped up the rest and returned it to his father. After wiping away his tears, he suddenly smiled.

"Dad, who are you planning to sell me to?"

The man said with difficulty, "Dad, since I asked you to be my concubine, I naturally found you a family with the best conditions in town. From now on, if you want to eat candied fruit, I'm afraid you can only choose the most expensive ones... Since you are here today, you can go directly to your husband's house and enjoy the good life. You don't have to go back to that shabby place with me."

Although the man said it lightly, his tears flowed even harder.

Zhao'er saw that his father was vague and only said that the other party's family was rich; then he thought about how the head of his own village had suddenly become very close to his father who was not good at flattering others in the past two days, and he suddenly understood the trick, and his smile became even more miserable.

"Dad, you're looking for the Jia Mansion in town, right? It's true that they can provide our family with a lot of things, so that you won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future. But Dad, have you ever thought about whether I will still be able to eat good food in the future..."

The man had never seen his daughter so disobedient and unfilial. He was so stunned that his expression was a little dazed. He said blankly: "That's the Jia Mansion. How could they let you die... If you don't want to go, you will die..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard people screaming.

It turned out that Zhao'er was listening to his father's reproach with tears in his eyes, and suddenly he headed straight towards the pillar base at the door.

There was a dull thud, which seemed to hit everyone's heart hard.

The customers in the store screamed in fear and fled in all directions.

The man was so frightened by his daughter's fierce behavior that he didn't dare to go forward to check. His legs went weak and he took advantage of the chaos to hold on to the wall and slipped out of the preserve shop step by step.

Lin Qing hurriedly stepped forward to help up the girl whose forehead was bleeding. Seeing her pale and bloodless face, the frustration in his heart turned into nameless anger.

"Ermiao, don't just stand there like an idiot. Go ask the boss to get some clean water and some medicine!"

Gu Ermiao was frightened back to his senses by his mother's loud shout, and hurriedly went to the shopkeeper to borrow basins, ladles, water and other things.

After looking around, I saw that the shopkeeper Qian had slumped over the counter with his legs weak, curling up into a ball. His face was pale as if he was about to faint at any moment. When I asked him questions, his lips trembled as if he was in a trance and he said nothing incoherent.

Gu Ermiao had no choice but to give up asking him and turned to find the apprentice.

Jiang Yi looked a bit better than Manager Qian, but he led Gu Ermiao to the backyard smoothly, and kept muttering:

"I, I just said a few words casually, but I didn't mean to force her to commit suicide!"

After saying that, he asked Gu Ermiao for confirmation: "You saw it just now, right? So if she was really dead, she wouldn't come to trouble me, right?"

Gu Ermiao nodded speechlessly.

Jiang Yi showed a miserable smile: "Yes, yes, if she wants to find it, she can go find her cruel father!"

Gu Ermiao listened to him chattering on and on, and wanted to leave him alone to go find the way, but he didn't know the way, so he had to punch him hard.

Jiang Yi stopped in pain and asked hesitantly, "Did you hit me just now?"

Gu Ermiao's face turned stern, and he said viciously, "If you don't hurry up, if she really dies here, she will become a resentful evil ghost and haunt you every day."

Jiang Yi screamed and ran towards the backyard like a rabbit.

In a moment, he ran towards the front yard with a basin of water in his left hand and a medicine box in his right hand. Gu Ermiao wanted to take one of them, but he couldn't keep up with him.

The candied fruit shop often cuts fruits and boils syrups, so injuries are common. Naturally, all kinds of ointments are available. In a hurry, he didn't bother to choose, but just wanted to get it quickly and not delay Miss Zhao'er's illness because of him.

He ran to Lin Qing and spilled most of the water in the basin because he couldn't stop the car. The medicine box was almost thrown on Zhao'er's head, aggravating his condition.

After a slurred apology, he hurriedly placed the things on the ground, swallowed hard, and said in a hoarse voice, "Husband, Madam, thank you for your help."

Although Lin Qing spoke so powerfully just now, it was her first time to deal with wounds. She could smell the strong smell of blood and her hands were sticky. She tried hard to stop her trembling body and gently cleaned Zhao'er.

After wiping off the blood and dust, Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there was a lot of blood on Zhao'er's forehead and it looked scary, he actually only had some skin scraped off and a big bump.

Shopkeeper Qian had been hiding behind the counter, stretching his neck to secretly observe how the situation was developing. Seeing Lin Qing calmly stopping the bleeding and applying medicine to the little girl, he felt very anxious.

He was afraid that Zhao'er would die in his shop, and he was even more afraid that Lin Qing and her two sons were colluding with Zhao'er to cheat him of his money.

Otherwise, why did the man disappear after his daughter hit the pillar?

He must have reported it to the police!

Shopkeeper Qian suddenly shuddered, stood up, and saw Lin Qing starting to wash his hands. He said loudly, "Since the injury has been treated, let's quickly carry him out. I don't want the medicine money. Let's go!"

Gu Ermiao's mind moved slightly, and he came up with an idea in an instant.

"Boss, this is a golden opportunity. How can you let it go?"

Shopkeeper Qian was confused.

"what?"

He originally didn't want to listen to Gu Ermiao's nonsense, but his young disciple Jiang Yi pulled his sleeve, so he had no choice but to curl his lips and say, "Why don't you tell me something."

Gu Ermiao said with a smile, "When I entered the town just now, I heard Uncle Tu at the fruit stall say that your shop is the best preserved fruit shop in town, and it's also an old shop that has been passed down from generation to generation."

When Shopkeeper Qian heard that Old Tu could actually praise him, his originally cold face softened a little and he nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.

"That's right. Our store has been passed down until now, and the most important thing is word of mouth. The ancestors accumulated wealth for the descendants to enjoy. I dare not forget the teachings of my ancestors, otherwise how could we have so many guests?"

Although Gu Ermiao didn't quite understand what he was saying, he still smiled and talked to him.

"That's exactly why you can't kick her out. After all, so many people just saw this girl Zhao'er trying to commit suicide in your shop. If she follows your method, it will be seen by others and will probably damage your reputation."

Shopkeeper Qian looked in the direction Gu Ermiao pointed, and saw a group of people gathered at the door, including some gossipy neighbors. He thought that was indeed the case.

It's really not worth it to ruin your reputation for such a little bitch.

"But if you wait until she wakes up and then send her away openly, you'll only lose some business, but you'll gain the reputation of being a kindhearted person throughout the town."

The more Shopkeeper Qian listened, the more surprised he became. He couldn't help but look the young man in front of him up and down carefully.

He really didn't expect that although this young boy was dressed in rags, he had extraordinary insights!
