Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chen Dong's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands, praising, "Second Aunt, you are so beautiful! This dress is like it was made for you. You should wear more clothes like this in the future."

Chen Meiju blushed, walked to the mirror, looked at herself from left to right, and a long-lost smile appeared on her face.

But he was still saying, "It's too expensive, let's not buy it."

Chen Dong went straight to the cashier, took out his money, and said to the shop owner, "How much is this dress if I wrap it up?"

Seeing this, Chen Meiju quickly ran over to stop him: "Dongzi, don't..."

Chen Dong pressed her hand down and said softly, "Second Aunt, please don't refuse."

"After all these years of hardship, it's time for you to have some sweetness. Consider this a token of my respect as your nephew."

Chen Meiju stood to the side, tears welling in her eyes, deeply moved.

In the end, she acquiesced to Chen Dong's feelings.

After they had finished shopping, Chen Dong led his second aunt to the shop selling three-wheeled motorcycles at a leisurely pace.

Before they could even get a foothold, the boss, like a hunting dog with a keen sense of smell spotting its prey, immediately came over with a beaming smile.

That smile was as radiant as a blooming chrysanthemum.

He followed Chen Dong and Chen Meiju, gesturing with his hands as he talked incessantly about the three-wheeled vehicles in the shop.

"Young man, take a look at this one, it's our store's star product!"

"Look at this exterior, the design is so grand, the lines are so smooth, it'll make you look really cool on the road."

"And look at this configuration, the power is really strong, it's a fuel-guzzling engine, and the cargo capacity is bigger than you can imagine."

"Whether it's helping someone haul goods or taking the whole family on a trip, it can handle it all and get a lot done in one trip."

"The quality is beyond question. We've been selling in this area for many years, and our reputation is top-notch. Our regular customers are always eager to buy from us, so you can't go wrong with this!"

Chen Dong stood around a three-wheeled vehicle, looking like a professional car mechanic, his eyes wide open, not missing a single detail.

He would occasionally squat down and gently press his fingers against the tire.

He muttered to himself, "I need to check the elasticity of these tires; it's related to safety."

He stood up again, gripped the handlebars tightly with both hands, and turned them left and right to feel their flexibility.

His expression was extremely focused, making him look exactly like an expert.

At this moment, the boss saw Chen Dong's appearance and felt that the business had potential.

He quickly patted his chest and announced the price: "Seeing that you are sincere in buying, I won't beat around the bush with you. I'll give you a fair price, 4000 yuan, not a penny less."

"We're just a small business with very thin profit margins, so we really don't need to charge you much."

Upon hearing the price, Chen Meiju's eyes widened instantly, and her mouth involuntarily opened slightly, as if she had heard something unbelievable.

He blurted out, "What? 4000 yuan? That's too expensive!"

Chen Meiju recalled her husband, who worked odd jobs and only earned a little over fifty yuan a month.

Even if you don't eat or drink, it would take at least 73 months, or six years, to count 4000 yuan!

Chen Meiju was startled by the price, and like a frightened deer, she turned her head in a panic.

She gripped Chen Dong's arm tightly with both hands, her fingers turning white from the force.

Chen Meiju anxiously advised, "Dongzi, let's not buy it. This is too much money and too wasteful."

"It's not easy for us to save money. We've spent so much all at once. The chicken farm will need money later, so we have to be careful."

"At worst, I can just make a few more trips by bicycle during the week, it's not much trouble."

Upon hearing this, the boss's previously enthusiastic smile instantly froze.

Like a flower struck by frost, it quickly withered.

He was a little unhappy, pursed his lips, and muttered under his breath, "You get what you pay for. The quality speaks for itself, and the price is still too high?"

"How come she doesn't know anything about current prices?"

Although the sound was soft, Chen Dong and Chen Meiju were close enough to hear it clearly.

Seeing this, Chen Dong quickly smiled apologetically at his boss, a smile that carried a hint of embarrassment and awkwardness.

Then she pulled her second aunt aside.

Chen Dong held his second aunt's shoulders firmly with both hands, looking at her with sincere eyes.

Then she patiently explained, "Second Aunt, don't worry about the money. This tricycle is very important to our chicken farm."

"Think about it, we'll have to transport feed every day from now on, right? Even though we plan to raise free-range chickens, it's not like we won't need any feed at all."

“If this scale goes up, how heavy would the feed be for hundreds or thousands of chickens? If you just use a bicycle, you wouldn’t have to do anything all day.”

"Without a good pair of tools, it would take forever to move this by hand, and it would be exhausting."

Chen Dong continued to explain in detail to his second aunt, Chen Meiju: "Furthermore, with this, we can deliver eggs to several households at once, which is much more efficient and saves a lot of labor costs."

"Although our initial investment may seem large, it can help us make more money in the future, so it's a great helper for making money."

"Second Aunt, please trust me this once, okay?"

Looking at Chen Dong's unwavering gaze, Chen Meiju hesitated for a moment, her mind in turmoil.

On the one hand, it hurts to spend money, after all, they've been used to being frugal in the Xu family for many years.

On the other hand, seeing the glimmer of hope in Chen Dong's eyes, and thinking about the bright future of the chicken farm.

In the end, she nodded slightly.

But I was still a little uneasy, my heart pounding like a little rabbit.

However, there was also a hint of excitement about buying such an expensive item.

After all, this is for their chicken farming business and an important step towards a new life.

After calming his aunt down, Chen Dong took a deep breath, turned around, and walked confidently toward the shop owner to start haggling.

"Boss, you see I'm really serious about buying this, so you should give me a fair price, right?"

"Just like my second aunt said, 4000 is too expensive, how about 3500?"

“Look, it’s not easy for me to start a business with my second aunt, and we’re short on funds. Please help us out.”

Upon hearing this, the boss shook his head vigorously, his face trembling.

"No, no, I can't even get in at this price. It has to be at least 3800."

"I have to factor in my shop rent, labor costs, and so on."

"Young man, you can't let me do a losing business."

Chen Dong frowned, pretending to be angry, and made a move to leave.

"Boss, that's too dishonest of you. I'll go check out other places."

"I don't believe that you're the only one selling three-wheeled vehicles in this area."

Seeing this, the boss panicked and quickly called out to Chen Dong.
