Stall setting starts from Malatang

Chapter 238 Chapter 238, the savage old lady

I heard that last year, a stall owner and an old woman had an endless dispute over whether to erase the change of 1 yuan. Unexpectedly, the old woman had a heart attack on the spot. Fortunately, she was rushed to the doctor in time and came back, but the stall owner still lost several thousand. The medical expenses of RMB [-] were so frightening that even seeing the old woman make things difficult for her, she would be obedient and dare not say a word.

"This... aunt, we also want to make money. I just bought these crabs at the Beishan Vegetable Market this morning. They cost 8 yuan and 9 yuan each. It's not too much to sell them for 15 yuan, right? These are not drinks and snacks. It won't go bad after a few months, but if I don't sell it for a few days and die, I will have to pay for the 8 yuan! Is it more than 9 yuan for one?"

Lin Xiaojian hurriedly begged for mercy and explained truthfully.

"How can it be so expensive? Let's buy it for eight or nine yuan. You can buy it. Seven yuan is the most."

"I'm the same as you. I only buy three or five at a time. How can it be so cheap?"

"You don't know how to buy by the basket?"

"You have to sell it. It's not bad to sell three or five a day! Where can I buy a basket?"

"That's your own problem."

"This……"

Lin Xiaojian argued with the old woman while controlling his tone, but found that the other party was unreasonable, so he decisively shut his mouth.

"Whether you like to eat or not, I can't tell you."

He thought to himself, leave her alone and continue to boil the vegetables.

"Forget it, give me vegetables, vermicelli, tofu...Xiao Le, what else do you want?"

"I want tenderloin!"

"This kind of tenderloin is made of flour, you can't eat it!"

"No, I want the tenderloin!"

"Hey, let's have another tenderloin, you can only eat half!"

"Great!"

The old woman struggled for a long time, and finally she couldn't stand her grandson. She ordered a few green and healthy ingredients in her eyes and handed them to Lin Xiaojian.

"Okay, you go to your seat and sit down for a while, I'll bring it to you as soon as I'm done."

Lin Xiaojian said politely, try to impress her as much as possible.

"Business is pretty good."

"I don't know what these people think. Instead of eating good rice, come and eat this kind of junk food."

After being seated, the old woman looked around and saw that four or five people were already seated, some in overalls and some in shirts, she couldn't help but wondered.

"..."

Lin Xiaojian, who had both ears and eyesight, pretended not to hear her words and continued to cook the dishes silently.

"This casserole is a bit hot, be careful."

After a while, Mala Tang was ready, and he reminded the young and old pair cautiously.

The young man has nimble hands and feet and is less likely to make mistakes. He is afraid that the old woman will be blinded and she will not be able to afford compensation if she is accidentally burned.

"Can I still not know this? Do you think I am as old as 70 years old?"

The old woman gave Lin Xiaojian a blank look when she heard the words, and was very dissatisfied with his underestimation of herself.

For some reason, she was upset when she saw this white and tender little boss: What's wrong with selling, selling this kind of junk food, tricking her little grandson to eat it, and seeing if I don't come to trouble him if he eats his stomach badly!
"..."

Lin Xiaojian shook his head, knowing that too many words would lead to mistakes, so he decided not to say a word to her again.

The sky is getting dark and the meal time is approaching. The popularity of Beishan Night Market continues to rise, and the flow of people must have exceeded the previous peak on Saturday.

The government thoughtfully made a few big signboards and hung them at nearby intersections to guide the direction, attracting many passers-by.At the entrance of the market, there are also four advertisements of "Beishan Night Market" emitting yellow lights, which look more standardized than before, and no longer have the primitive and wild feeling of operating without a license.

Several tables were filled up quickly, and the old lady had to accept the status quo of sharing tables with others.Lin Xiaojian glanced at her from time to time, seeing that she was eating very slowly, affecting the turnover rate, he was anxious and unable to chatter.

She peeled all the crabs from head to toe, leaving the meat for her grandson to eat, and sucked the juice from the shell herself, saving to the extreme.

"Crabs are delicious, grandma, can I have another one?"

"no!"

Seeing that the little grandson made an inch of progress, the old woman's eyes widened and she burst into anger.30 yuan for a meal is already the limit, let alone this kind of junk food. 30 yuan can buy several small crabs in the vegetable market, enough for him to vomit.

"Okay, let's eat prawns next time. My classmate said that these two dishes are the best in his family."

The little grandson stuck out his tongue and said, elementary school students nowadays are very serious about comparisons, from what car their parents drive, to the young genius with a phone, watch, and lunch box, all of which are worth showing off.

"Little boss, count the money."

The old woman ate some vermicelli and vegetables by herself, and she was reluctant to spend money outside.Can’t you buy something you want to eat and make it at home? I don’t understand why young people nowadays spend so much money.

"Hello, 32 yuan."

"What! Why is it so expensive!?"

"Uh, crabs are 15 yuan, you know, vegetables are 1.5 yuan, vermicelli are 2 yuan..."

Hearing the old woman's voice suddenly increased, Lin Xiaojian was startled, and introduced everything.

"What are you doing! It's only 1.5 yuan for these green vegetable leaves? 1 yuan and 5 yuan are enough to buy more than a catty! How much do you have here? Is there one or two?!"

said the old woman loudly, her eyes full of hatred for speculation.

"Ah...you can buy a catty in the vegetable market, but you have to pick the leaves and cut the roots, which is a lot of waste. Besides, don't I need money for the work of cutting and cooking? The soup base is only a day It's worth dozens of dollars."

Lin Xiaojian was already dissatisfied with the old woman's repeated criticisms, but he couldn't lose his temper with her.

If it were a young man, he would have fallen for it without hesitation.

As we all know, the law does not blame the old.It doesn't matter who you are, whether you are reasonable or not, if you have conflicts with the elderly, it is your responsibility to stab them to the police station.

"You can't sell them indiscriminately. If you sell vegetables for 1 yuan and 5 yuan, you will be struck by lightning! I think 5 cents is enough."

The old woman became more and more outspoken.

"Auntie, look at the many stalls here, who sells green vegetables for 5 cents."

Lin Xiaojian couldn't suppress his unhappiness anymore, and he could bear it in other situations. If this kind of nonsense is indulged, it will damage the social atmosphere.

"They are them, I don't care, now I'm eating in your shop, I have to ask you!"

said the old woman arrogantly.

Lin Xiaojian stared closely at the old woman's raspy face, and couldn't help but wonder if she was instructed by someone to come to trouble on the first day the new night market opened.

Since he was blackmailed by Xingba last time, he is now a shadow of a snake, and he can't help thinking about it when he sees people making trouble for no reason.

"Grandma, forget it, it's only a few dollars, what are you doing so loudly?"

Even the little grandson couldn't stand it any longer, and offered words of comfort.

Probably because she felt that Boss Xiao Lin couldn't do anything to her, the old woman would not leave, she just stood in front of the stall, and the passers-by looked at them curiously, wondering how the stall owner had offended her.
