Chapter 70 Li Er's mouth is no match for Mrs. Chen

The vendor took the money, waved his hand to Lin Tao to move aside, and said, "If you can't afford it, don't stop me from doing business."

"If you can't afford it, get out of the way! Don't block my way! You can't afford food with the money you earned from selling your junk for two days! I advise you to go up the mountain and dig wild vegetables!"

"Auntie, you're right. The drought has lasted for so long. It's hard to dig wild vegetables in the mountains!" the vendor said in a complimentary way, as if talking about cross talk.

"That's right! If I were you, I would just go dig Guanyin soil from the mountains! However, you can't eat too much of that stuff. If you eat too much, you won't be able to pull it out, and you will be bloated to death! What a miserable life!"

It was a coincidence that the person speaking was Mrs. Chen, whom she had had a quarrel with before in Fangshi!

Lin Tao glanced at the two men like a clown, turned around and left.

Is she here to buy food? Is she here to sell food?

Back at their stall, Sister Yu and her husband were no longer as energetic as before, but they were still very enthusiastic.

Although he didn't mention whether his life was good or not, the many gray hairs he had after not seeing each other for a few days already showed that life was difficult.

"Sister, how is business going these days?"

Sister Yu shook her head: "What a good thing. Shuji are sold for thirty yuan. How can ordinary people afford to eat fish? But it's okay. Although the business is not as good as before, we can still make do with it."

"Mom! The stall is set up." Li Si shouted.

After exchanging pleasantries with Sister Yu, Lin Tao went back.

"How much do we sell it for per liter?" Li Er asked.

"Didn't you hear what Aunt Yu said? The Shu is already sold for thirty, so we can sell it for thirty too."

Looking at Li Si with shining eyes, Lin Tao slapped him away.

"Mom! If you want to hit me, just say so!"

"I want to hit you!"

"ah?"

With a snap, Lin Tao slapped Li Siyi again.

Li Si covered his cheeks and silently stepped back five steps away.

"Twenty for sale." Lin Tao said.

"Mom! Everyone is taking advantage of this time to earn as much as possible. You will lose ten cents per liter this time! This is not a free gift..."

As soon as Lin Tao raised her hand, Li Si shut up instantly.

"I see, two slaps are not enough!"

Li Si shook his head crazily. Who couldn't say enough? He didn't!

But it’s ten cents! One liter is ten cents less, and one hundred liters is one hundred cents... It’s a huge loss!

While the old lady was looking away, he winked at Li Er.

Li Er looked puzzled, but he shook his head and stopped looking at him.

With no choice, Li Si had to quietly touch Li Er's side.

He only said in a voice that could be heard by the two of them: "Second brother, go and tell your mother. One liter is short of ten cents! Our family has suffered a big loss!"

"Ah?" Li Er picked his ears.

Li Si wondered if his voice was too soft.

So he said the words again in a slightly louder voice.

Li Er frowned, said "Huh?" again, and then said: "Please speak louder, I can't hear you clearly."

"I told you to do less of that stuff on weekdays, but you didn't listen! You must have kidney deficiency! Your ears can't even work!"

"What on earth are you talking about?"

This time, Li Er not only picked out his ears, but also turned sideways and put the ears towards his mouth.

"I said! One liter is less than ten cents! Tell your mother, our family has suffered a big loss!" After he yelled, Li Er patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the side.

He turned his head unconsciously and looked over. After another burst of burning pain in his cheek, his ears buzzed, and then the things in front of him were still spinning.

"You kid, ever since you were little, whenever you call me second brother, nothing will happen to you!"

After hearing what Li Er said, he realized that he had been tricked by this kid Li Er!

"Hey, you little brother! You're actually teasing me!" He raised his hand and went up, but when he saw the second child standing next to the old lady, he stopped his hand.

He really didn't expect that the second child, who used to act like a fool, would actually become more thoughtful!

Here, Lin Tao had no time to pay attention to the noisy Li Si because someone was asking questions in front of the stall.

"Is this really edible? It can't be something broken, right?" someone asked.

"Ouch! What is this? Look at this, who dares to eat it!" Chen's voice was so high-pitched.

The people around him who were hesitant turned around and left immediately.

Mrs. Chen was still shouting at the top of her lungs: "There are still bean sprouts for sale over there, go and buy some! You don't even recognize something like this, so be careful of being deceived!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Er asked, pointing at Chen's nose.

When she had a grudge with Mrs. Chen that day, her four sons were not present, and her two daughters-in-law and grandchildren never mentioned it when they got home.

Therefore, it is impossible for Li Er to know that Mrs. Chen is deliberately looking for trouble.

"I said you are a liar. What's wrong? Look what you are selling. Does anyone know this in our city? It's not just dug soil, dried and crushed, and used to pass off as food!"

"Keep your mouth clean! Can't you buy it if you don't know me? This is food! Food that can fill your stomach!"

Mrs. Chen continued with a smile: "A joke! How can there be truth in a liar's mouth? Whoever believes it will be fooled!"

"you……"

With Li Er's mouth, he can't be a match for Mrs. Chen.

Seeing that Li Er couldn't defeat her, Mrs. Chen cast a provocative look at Lin Tao.

Lin Tao stood up and walked up, and Mrs. Chen took a few steps back unconsciously.

So what if you have a harsh mouth? Your body is also very honest!

"What? You're afraid of being beaten, and you still come to stir up trouble. You're such a bitch!"

"You, you are a bitch! Try hitting me today!"

The crowd of people watching nearby spontaneously stepped back to make way for an open space.

Someone whispered: "Aunt Lin who sells fairy tofu, maybe there is something wrong with the ancestral grave, right? Why does she always have to fight every time she comes to the market?"

"Ahem! It's really alas!"

Lin Tao suppressed the fire, sent the third child back to pick up some burnt wood, and dug a hole next to the stall to light the fire.

Then he put the big stone he had used to sit on on the fire.

I scooped two bowls of tartary buckwheat noodles onto the table, added some water, and kneaded them like noodles.

The onlookers were dumbfounded.

Someone exclaimed: "Yo! Is this white noodles?"

"Are you stupid? Why is white noodles called white noodles? Because they are white! Look at what color she is!"

"Yes!"

After kneading the dough, there was no rolling pin, so Lin Tao had to press it into a cake with the palm of her hand, and then spread it on the hot stone.

As the temperature continues to rise, a scent of wheat and burnt aroma spreads.

Mrs. Chen looked unhappy and kept saying provocative words.

Lin Tao has no brains. If she can't see Chen's dirty thoughts, then her life will be in vain!

Want to single her out, or talk back and delay the sale? Dream on!

When the cake was baked, Lin Tao tore off a piece and said, "Is anyone willing to try it?"

"Ouch! It's best not to eat anything you don't recognize! If it gets into the hospital, it's probably considered minor! If you die, who should you go to?"

When Mrs. Chen said this, those who were willing to give it a try just now retreated.

"Damn old woman! You are deliberately looking for trouble, right? I will fight with you!"

Li Er roared and rushed towards Mrs. Chen.

"Well done! Second brother!" Li Si fanned the flames from behind.

Li San looked at her like a stupid goose and asked: "Mom? Can you help me?"

As for Li Yi, standing in the stall, he yawned and said lazily: "I'm actually still energetic enough to fight."
