Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument, her second aunt tried to hit her: "You brat, you're so good at making things up, I'll beat you to death."

They were stopped by quick-thinking and enthusiastic bystanders.

"Young lady, it's not easy for your niece to run a business. As an elder, instead of helping her out, you're here to take advantage and cause trouble."

"It's really not good for an aunt to eat for free at her niece's shop."

"That's right, hurry up and pay for the meal, then go home. The two kids are still watching."

The second aunt was speechless. She pointed at Lin Xiaoqian and kept saying "she" for a long time without uttering a word. Her arm was held down by some strong people in the crowd, and she couldn't hold back her tears.

"I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to marry into the Lin family. I can't even eat a single egg fried rice. Oh, my life is so miserable."

As he spoke, his body slid down, like a slippery loach.

My second aunt was kneeling on the ground, crying and making a scene, clapping her hands and then patting the floor. It was like a world-famous painting.

Upon seeing this, everyone immediately felt that the situation was in a difficult predicament.

Lin Xiaoqian looked at everyone helplessly, inwardly sneering.

"Or, or I won't ask for the money for the meal, I..." she said, her eyes red and tears welling up.

When everyone saw that it wasn't easy for the young girl to do business on her own with a loan, and that she had encountered such an awful relative, their gazes toward her second aunt became even more hostile.

"Young lady, call the police! Why shouldn't you pay for the meal that's rightfully yours?"

"Yes! Call the police! This constitutes fraud and disturbing public order. Detain her for a few days and she'll behave!"

"That's right! Call the police!"

Of course, some people thought it was just a minor conflict between relatives and there was no need to make such a big deal out of it. But after seeing the pitiful Lin Xiaoqian and the other people who looked on with shared indignation, they all shut their mouths.

Just enjoy the show; let's not cause any unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, that middle-aged woman was indeed quite hateful, much like a relative who makes you grit your teeth in anger but you can't do anything about it.

Upon hearing that the police were going to call and detain her, the second aunt jumped up from the ground and said fiercely, "How much is the total?"

Upon hearing that there was a chance, Lin Xiaoqian immediately said, "Family photo 15, three bottles of drinks 12, total 27."

My second aunt, with a stern face, took out twenty-seven yuan in cash and threw it at her, then grabbed the two children and walked away through the crowd.

Lin Xiaoqian didn't mind that she had thrown it on the ground. She squatted down to pick it up and said to the onlookers with a grateful look, "Thank you everyone, thank you! Um, let me treat you all to some water."

The onlookers waved their hands, saying, "Forget it, young lady. There are so many of us. If each of us buys a bottle of mineral water, it will cost more than 25 yuan. You should save it to pay off your loan."

Lin Xiaoqian kept thanking them, and the crowd dispersed.

A few hungry onlookers noticed that the fried rice that Auntie Er Tang hadn't finished on the table looked pretty good. The "Family Reunion" plate had seafood, cured meat, and other ingredients, and it only cost 15 yuan.

I asked Lin Xiaoqian if he was still doing business.

There's no reason not to do business that comes to your door.

Let them order first, and I'll go get a mop and rag to clean up the leftover drinks on the floor and table.

I made a few more orders in the afternoon, and by dinner time, the shop was busier.

Just as I was busy, Grandma Lin came over.

I helped tidy up a few dishes that hadn't been cleared away yet, and then went into the kitchen.

He walked over to Lin Xiaoqian and asked softly, "Did you have a fight with your second aunt?"

After all, she was an elder, and Lin Xiaoqian didn't know her grandmother's attitude towards this matter, so she lowered her head and obediently hummed in agreement while cooking noodles.

"Good arguing!"

Ok?

Lin Xiaoqian turned to look at Grandma Lin.

Grandma Lin said angrily, "She said some inhuman things on the day of the opening. If it weren't for the joyous occasion, and making a scene would be bad luck, I would have scolded her long ago. Now she still dares to come to the store to act arrogantly and domineering."

Then, with a concerned look, he asked, "You didn't suffer any losses, did you?"

Lin Xiaoqian shook her head: "Don't worry, Grandma, I wouldn't let myself be taken advantage of. I even got my money back from her meal."

Everyone knows that her second aunt is a woman who loves to take advantage and never gives back, but everyone just ignores her out of politeness.

Grandma Lin said with a relieved expression, "I was worried that you might suffer because of family ties, but now it seems my little darling is growing up well and can handle things on her own, so Grandma is relieved."

Lin Xiaoqian asked curiously, "Grandma, how did you find out about this?"

When Grandma Lin heard this, she looked disdainful: "On my way home from get off work, she came up to me and said it herself, but I ignored her and came straight over here."

Lin Xiaoqian asked with a worried look, "Won't my great-grandmother and second uncle be angry with me when they find out?"

Grandma Lin reassured her, "No, your great-grandmother is a reasonable person. She's very annoyed by this daughter-in-law, so she definitely won't be angry with you. Your second uncle is always at the construction site, leaving early and returning late. He doesn't have time to worry about these things. You don't need to worry about anything. Grandma will take care of everything, okay?"

Lin Xiaoqian finally felt relieved. Her hometown was a small place, full of interpersonal relationships and social dynamics. Good news didn't travel far, but bad news spread like wildfire. She still needed to live and do business here, and she couldn't afford to make a scene that would damage her reputation.

In the evening, to comfort Lin Xiaoqian, Grandma Lin didn't go home early. She stayed with Lin Xiaoqian for a while, helping her with the students' business, before they went home together.

After sleeping at home for another night, Lin Xiaoqian woke up at almost eight o'clock. Since she had transmigrated at around two o'clock in the afternoon last time, there were still more than six hours left before she could transmigrate again.

The system says the next task is to sell 300 plates of braised pork, and the timeframe is still half a month.

Lin Xiaoqian quickly got up and went to the market to buy pork belly.

Since the amount of pork belly on one stall was limited, Lin Xiaoqian visited several other meat stalls.

Lin Xiaoqian borrowed a small cart from the market and pushed the more than 300 kilograms of pork belly back to the shop.

As soon as I stepped out of the market, I heard a jarring voice: "My cousin is rich now, a big boss. She buys so much meat at once. No wonder she looks down on us poor relatives."

Lin Xiaoqian looked up and saw her cousin, Lin Mengqi, staring at her fiercely with her small eyes.

After not seeing her for several years, Lin Mengqi has gained a lot of weight and even has a double chin. It seems that she is well-fed at home.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoqian didn't speak, Lin Mengqi continued, "My mom is so angry with you that she's bedridden and can't get out of bed. Give me a piece of meat as an apology."

He said he was going to reach for the meat.

"If you dare to move, I dare to chop off your paws," Lin Xiaoqian said coldly. "Get out of my way! A good dog doesn't block the way, and a dog that blocks the way isn't a good dog."

Lin Mengqi angrily pointed her index finger at Lin Xiaoqian's face: "Lin Xiaoqian, you!"

Lin Xiaoqian slapped her away, ignored her, and pushed the cart away.

Encountering such a terrible person first thing in the morning is really unlucky, like stepping in dog poop.
