CHAPTER 58: CHAPTER 58: I’LL TAKE EVERYTHING YOU’RE SELLING

That day, quite a few people saw Erhu returning injured, and in just two days he recovered. If word got out, everyone would find it strange.

So, Mrs. Jiang and Lin Sanshui unanimously decided to let him lie in bed for a couple more days and pretend, so that people wouldn’t be frightened by his sudden recovery and consider him an anomaly.

Gu Nian was still asleep and was awakened by Mrs. Jiang, "Niannian, get up quickly."

Gu Nian rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up straight in bed, "Mom, are we leaving?"

"No rush, your dad is still packing things, you should get up quickly too." Mrs. Jiang brought her clothes, carefully pulling her arm to help her get dressed.

Gu Nian forced her eyes open and felt a bit more awake after washing her face.

The jelly made last night had also solidified. All the basins at home were used, resulting in only two basins, which were loaded into the wooden buckets for carrying water at home.

Once everything was loaded onto the borrowed donkey cart, Mrs. Jiang packed all the bowls and chopsticks at home into another bucket and brought them along, saying, "You guys try out the business first today, if it’s good, buy more bowls and chopsticks to make it easier."

Gu Nian grabbed garlic, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and the garlic press from the kitchen.

The seasonings were too limited, it seemed she needed to find a way to get more varieties.

Otherwise, even the best cooking skills are useless without enough materials.

Once everything was set, Lin Sanshui took Dahu and Gu Nian, and the three of them set out.

Gu Nian hadn’t slept enough yet; she drifted off sweetly in Dahu’s arms all the way on the ox cart.

When they arrived at the town, Gu Nian asked Lin Sanshui, "Dad, do we still go to that street where we sell vegetables?"

"No, we’re changing places."

Lin Sanshui chose a spot not far from Qinglin Restaurant, where wealthy people frequent, and things sell well.

However, a stall here costs five copper coins for half a day, and occupying two stalls amounts to ten copper coins, which isn’t cheap for regular folks.

"Come and look, enjoy the delicious and refreshing jelly, a different type that brings you a cool sensation all summer..."

Gu Nian hadn’t even set up the things properly yet, but the words of advertisement already came naturally from her mouth.

Beside her, Dahu watched, stunned, as she only revealed her head above the stall, "Little sis, where did you learn this?"

Looking at him and Dad, as they stood here, none dared to speak.

Gu Nian blinked, "Do you need to learn this? See, everyone does it this way!"

Gu Nian pointed aside, where all the vendors sold their goods using hawking.

Dahu’s face turned a little red.

He certainly heard and saw it, but he had never sold anything before, so he felt a bit inhibited and embarrassed to shout.

As Gu Nian shouted, she was just setting up the jelly and preparing to mix a sample for people to taste when she saw a man in black with a sword walking towards her.

Standing before the stall, Wuming spoke up, "How much Silver, I’ll take it all."

Seeing business coming her way, though he was a stone-faced customer, Gu Nian cheerfully greeted, "Hello, one bowl of jelly is six wen money. Are you taking it to mix yourself or eating it here?"

Gu Nian spoke as she cut a piece from the plate and placed it in front.

Wuming looked at it, furrowed his brows, clearly a bit conflicted.

Then, he said, "I’ll take everything you’re selling."

Gu Nian paused in her actions, surprised, she looked up at him.
