292 Experienced

The aunt was unyielding, “you don’t even take care of your own stall and deal with business the crooked way! Is it because you’ve never seen this before? They have to sell this to earn a living. If you want to know, you should make this too!”

The young man’s face immediately turned red. What right does she have to have a jab at him?!

Seeing that the people from the other stalls nearby were looking over, how could the young man step down? However, he did not dare to really fight with the aunt. The stalls were all managed by the government. If he was found fighting, his stall would be blacklisted in the future. Thus, he could only swallow his anger and pride down.

The young man didn’t want to lie to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan anymore, so he turned around and went back to his stall angrily.

“Thank you,” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both expressed their thanks.

The middle-aged woman at the stall diagonally across immediately laughed and said, “What’s there to thank me for? It was just a few words.”

Even though they wouldn’t have been tricked even without the aunt’s help, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan still believed that there were many good people in this world.

When Xue Sifu returned with a bucket of water, the aunt told him about it. Xue Sifu quickly thanked the aunt for her kindness, but after saying that, Xue Sifu turned to his two precious children and smiled, “You would’ve been tricked? I won’t believe it even if you beat me to death.”

He had experienced how smart these two precious children were.

Xue Yan laughed while Jiang Yue smiled awkwardly.

It was almost noon, and it was time to start a fire. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time to start a fire if someone really came to eat rice noodles.

Xue Sifu added water to the pot and covered it.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan squatted at the mouth of the stove, putting some firewood inside and some chopped wood on the other side. This was so that it could be readily available when more wood was needed.

After that, Jiang Yue took out a lighter and blew on it.

Xue Yan took it subconsciously and lit the firewood in the stove chamber. Then, he put the chopped wood in.

Afraid that the smoke would affect others, the stove was placed in the most remote place of the stall.

No one had come to eat the rice noodles yet, so he couldn’t make the fire too big. He just had to maintain the heat.

“It’s good to have a fire piston. It’s not only convenient, but it sure is fast.” Xue Sifu took the lighter and looked at it before returning it to Xue Yan, who then gave it to Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue put the lighter back into her pocket.

After that, Jiang Yue took out a big clay bowl from the basket and poured some water into it. She soaked some dry rice noodles in it to soften it so that it would take less time to cook.

Seeing that everything was ready, Xue Sifu didn’t shout loudly to ask people to come over and eat the rice noodles. Instead, he took two small folding stools from the side and let Jiang Yue and Xue Yan sit in front of him, one each.

He squatted down in front of his two precious children.

“Come, come. Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, sit over here.”

Xue Sifu’s face was full of smiles, his eyes curved like a fox’s.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were expressionless.

They had talked just now. Now, even if they used their brains to think, they knew that Sifu definitely wanted them to solicit customers.

Sure enough, Sifu put his hands together and smiled imploringly, “As you can see, this location is not good at all. Even dogs won’t come here to beg for food. No matter how loudly I shout, no one will come to eat the rice noodles. So, you guys, I’m begging you, I’m really begging you. Go ahead and share about this place at the fork in front. Look, there are so many people there. Most people pass by there every day.”
