Chapter 9

"Brother, why are you stunned? I'm giving this aunt some money." Jin Beibei kicked Jiangnan's little horse, and then said to the aunt in front of him with a smile: "Auntie, my brother is too stupid to study and doesn't like to talk."

When the aunt saw Jin Beibei wearing the same square scarf, she said fondly to her: "Girl, it's such a cold day to set up a stall, where are the adults in your family?"

When Jin Beibei heard this, he immediately continued: "My family is very busy and can't leave. I guess it's the Chinese New Year soon. My brother and I set up a stall to make some money. It costs a lot of money for two children to study."

After speaking, he glanced sideways at Jiang Nan.

The aunt looked at Jiang Nan again and said angrily: "Learn from your sister and be more diligent with your mouth. How can you attract business if you don't open your mouth?" After saying that, she looked at the people around her and said, "What a good little girl, but she is black."

point."

Everyone agreed and praised Director Jin Beibei for his ability.

Jiangnan: "..."

The crowd dispersed. Jiang Nan looked at Jin Beibei's dark little face and then had the time to ask: "Why are you here? You are dressed like this. Didn't you wash your face?"

"That's the ashes at the bottom of the pot. How can you do business when you are so clean? Do you think you can just wear an old cotton-padded jacket and sit here for a long time without saying a word? Who will buy your stuff?" Jin Beibei glanced at Jiangnan, feeling a little proud.

said.

"I've never set up a stall before, so I feel a little guilty." Jiang Nan smiled coquettishly.

"Look, I'm quite capable. I help you sell things and you pay me a salary, okay?" Jin Beibei asked eagerly.

Jiang Nan touched his chin and asked, "How much does it cost per day?"

"Ten yuan." Jin Beibei asked tentatively, feeling quite unsure. This is ten yuan, ten times her pocket money.

Jiang Nan said excitedly: "How about ten dollars? I'll give you..." After a pause, Jiang Nan said again, "I'll give you eleven."

"Look at you gasping for breath, I thought I could give you an extra three to five yuan." Jin Beibei said with contempt.

There are more and more people setting up stalls on the street. They are all nearby villagers. Most of them grow their own vegetables, raise their own chickens, and some of them kill pigs. If they don't finish the food, they take it to the town stalls to sell.

There are more and more people going to the market, and Jin Beibei is selling very enthusiastically, becoming the most dazzling presence among the stalls on this stretch of road.

When Jiang Nan looked at her, his perception of her changed a lot. In his previous life, Jiang Nan always felt that Jin Beibei was the kind of girl who could only study and not succeed in anything else.

"Why are you looking at me?" Jin Beibei turned around and saw Jiang Nan looking at her.

"Haha", Jiang Nan laughed to cover up his embarrassment, "I think you are the most powerful stall owner on this street, a proper street vendor."

"That's right, sister will strive to be the first in everything she does." Jin Beibei said sternly.

"That's that." Jiang Nan said in agreement.

"Where did you get in this exam?" Jin Beibei suddenly asked.

"Fifth in class."

"I think you just don't care about studying. I've seen your test paper and the points deducted are not difficult questions, they are all basic questions. Be serious, you will take the high school entrance examination next year." Jin Beibei looked at Jiang Nan and warned.

"Well, I understand. I will study hard when I get back." Jiang Nan said seriously. In his previous life, Jiang Nan was admitted to the No. 1 middle school. There is no way he could get into an ordinary high school in this life.

Seeing Jiang Nan's good attitude, Jin Beibei didn't know what to say next. When she talked about Jiang Nan in the past, Jiang Nan always looked indifferent. Could it be that he has really changed his gender?

Jiang Nan saw the uncle next to him hawking his own pork, so he walked over and chatted with the uncle, bought two kilograms of pork, and sent it to Wang Xia.

"Auntie, I saw that the pork at that place was pretty good, so I bought two kilograms. Let's fry it for lunch." Jiang Nan put down the pork with a smile.

"You kid, you're just having a meal here with me and you're so polite to Auntie. Don't buy any more, or Auntie won't let you eat." Wang Xia pretended to have a straight face.

"Auntie, I'm not polite to you either. This is not alone. Jin Beibei is also helping me. Besides, we don't set up a stall here and eat at your place every day. We can let you buy food everywhere.

Besides, aren’t we also making money?”

Jiang Nan spoke so well that Wang Xia was stunned and speechless for a moment. Why didn't she realize that this kid was so eloquent before?

So he said with a smile: "Auntie can't help you. Anyway, just don't buy vegetables. The vegetables Auntie eats here are all grown at Grandma Xiaofen's house and they don't cost money. So don't be polite to Auntie.

"

Jiang Nan smiled and nodded, then went back to sit down.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, Xu Xiaofen rubbed her sleepy eyes and came to the wonton shop in a daze.

The TV series was very exciting last night. She watched it very late. If she hadn't been so hungry that she couldn't bear it, she would have slept until dark.

"Mom, is lunch ready?" Xu Xiaofen asked her mother as soon as she entered the store.

"The rice is cooked, but the vegetables haven't been fried yet." Wang Xia was busy picking vegetables without looking at her daughter.

"Why haven't you cooked the vegetables yet? I'm starving to death." Xu Xiaofen muttered.

Wang Xia raised her head and saw her daughter's hair disheveled and her eyes bleary, and said angrily:

"You slept in and didn't get up until now. You're hungry when you get there. Look at Jiangnan and Jin Beibei, they came early in the morning and have been setting up their stalls all morning."

"What did you say? Who is setting up a stall with whom?" Xu Xiaofen seemed to have found the keywords she was most concerned about, and she suddenly woke up.

"Nuo, look, it's right in front of our house." Wang Xia pointed at the backs of the two people not far from the door and said to Xu Xiaofen.

She knew that her daughter liked Jiangnan, but the two of them were not in a relationship, and it was hard for the mother to say anything. At this moment, she felt a little happy after the stabbing, and the anger in her heart disappeared instantly.

"Really, you didn't even call me." Xu Xiaofen lowered her head and whispered, her eyes turning a little red.

"Can you get up if I ask you?" Wang Xia heard her daughter say this and felt a little angry.

"Go and help if you want, and don't make trouble here." Wang Xia didn't know what to say, so she simply sent her daughter over to help. She looked so plaintive that it was really hard to watch.

"Jiangnan, Jin Beibei." Xu Xiaofen put down the pony and sat down next to Jiangnan.

"Xu Xiaofen, why are you here?" Jin Beibei asked.

Jiang Nan and Xu Xiaofen looked at Jin Beibei at the same time.

"This is the entrance to her store, why can't she come?" Jiang Nan said in surprise.

"Oh, that's not what I meant, I meant why did you come to help set up the stall?" Jin Beibei said quickly.

"My mother thought I was causing trouble in the store, so she sent me out." Xu Xiaofen said with a blushing face.

"Haha, you must be disliked." Jiang Nan leaned forward and backward with a smile, "They say that if you are at home during the holidays, you will be disliked by your parents for three days. I didn't expect you to be disliked on the first day."

Jiang Nan recalled his previous life when he came home during the university vacation. On the first day, his parents were very enthusiastic. They didn’t have to do anything. They stretched out their hands for clothes and opened their mouths for food. But on the second day, they were quiet. They did their own thing. On the third day, they did whatever they had to do.

You are still disliked at every turn.

When the two girls heard what Jiang Nan said, they both agreed deeply.

"Jiangnan, why didn't you tell me when you set up a stall?" Xu Xiaofen said resentfully while Jin Beibei went to the toilet.

"I suddenly remembered yesterday that I didn't tell anyone except Wang Sihai," Jiang Nan explained.

"Then how come Jin Beibei knew about it?" Xu Xiaofen asked next.

"You are talking about this. Yesterday I came out of Wang Sihai's house and bumped into Jin Beibei at the corner of the alley. The money fell on the floor. She asked me what I was doing with so much money. I told her that I wanted to set up a stall to sell.

Spring couplets." Jiang Nan continued to explain.

"Oh, remember to tell me next time," Xu Xiaofen said.

"Well, okay, I'll definitely call you next time." Jiang Nan promised.

"Yes." Xu Xiaofen finally became happy, with a dull smile on her face.

"Jiangnan, what should we do for lunch? I'm almost starving to death." Jin Beibei suddenly thought of the lunch issue. He had been busy all morning and was already hungry by now.

"Oh, we'll eat at Aunt Wang's place for lunch. When you talk about eating, I get hungry." After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he felt that his stomach was also hungry.

"Oh, no wonder I saw you buying meat just now. I thought you left it with auntie temporarily, but it turned out to be what we had for lunch?" Jin Beibei said with a smile.

"Oh, my mother is very busy today, and she hasn't cooked yet." Xu Xiaofen quickly exclaimed.
