The sun sets in the west, and the dim light shines on the entire Pengcheng, giving it a sense of animation and autumn.

"It will probably be cooler at night, Gulu Gulu."

Lin Qian had already finished two cups of refreshing lemon tea.

This was made by the husband of Zhang Xi, a college classmate, and he gave them four cups in total.

In order to repay the gift, they also selected some jewelry and ornaments to send over.

"It's killing me, hiccup~"

Lin Qian's stomach was already full of food.

"Don't sit still, get up and walk around to digest, otherwise you will feel even more uncomfortable later."

Wen Yan reminded her kindly.

"Okay, I'll just walk around and check out the stalls."

After saying that, Lin Qian stood up, stretched her hands and feet, and moved briefly.

At this time, she looked up and saw an old man driving a tricycle not far away.

I saw the old man stopping his tricycle at the parking lot.

Then, he began to take out several large baskets from the car.

Lin Qian saw this and hurriedly said to Wen Yan, "Yanyan, I'll go over and help grandpa."

Wen Yan followed Lin Qian's gaze and said "hmm" knowing her intention.

"Grandpa, let me help you."

Lin Qian quickly helped the old man drag down the last big basket.

The large basket is filled with various bamboo handicrafts.

There are small lanterns, bamboo baskets, cattail fans, bamboo colanders, etc.

"The little girl is so kind-hearted, thank you."

"You're welcome, grandpa, are you here to set up a stall too?"

"Yeah, I'm thinking of setting up a stall here to earn some living expenses."

The old grandfather's body is still strong, but his hair looks white, and he is still full of energy.

"I'm also here to set up a stall. There happens to be an empty space next to our stall. Do you want to go there?"

Lin Qian asked the old man, thinking that he was the only one, and maybe she and Wen Yan could be of some help later.

"Okay, as long as you have a seat."

It was getting dark, and the old man came here just after cooking for his wife.

This street is filled with various stalls one after another, and the old man thinks that as long as there is a place to put down his knitting products, it will be great.

"Grandpa, it's over there. Let me help you carry these two baskets over there first."

Lin Qian pointed to the spot next to where Wen Yan was sitting.

"it is good."

Later, Wen Yan saw Lin Qian, who was dragging a large basket with both hands, and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Yanyan, let this old man sell things next to our stall so that he can take care of him later."

"it is good."

The old man had three large baskets in total. Lin Qian took two and the old man took one.

"Thank you, little girl, thank you so much."

"fine."

"Did you make all these gadgets?"

The old man took a few glances at the things on their stall.

"Yeah, we did it ourselves."

"nice."

"Grandpa is really discerning." Wen Yan responded to the grandfather with a smile and said, "The things you make up are also very good."

"These two girls can talk."

The old man boasted while sorting out the knitted products on the stall.

"A little rabbit for each of you."

The old man picked up two particularly finely woven bamboo products and handed them to Lin Qian and Wen Yan.

"No, no, grandpa, it would be great if you could keep some money from selling it."

Wen Yan and Lin Qian shook their heads and refused.

"These are not worth anything, but they are my thoughts, old man. Thank you both for helping me."

The old man insisted on sending it, and kept the hand holding the little rabbit lantern in the air.

"Okay, thank you grandpa then."

The two took the bunny lantern with both hands and hung it on the hook behind the display stand.

"Grandpa, let me give you a bottle of water. The weather is still a bit hot. Drink more water to rehydrate."

Attentive Wen Yan found that the old man only brought a small cloth bag to collect money, so he gave him a bottle of mineral water.

"Thank you, the little girl is really thoughtful."

"You're welcome."

The sky was gradually being shrouded in darkness. The college students at the nearby university had finished their classes, and the migrant workers in the high-rise building next door had also finished their get off work. The number of people began to increase.

Not only Wen Yan and Lin Qian's handmade pottery stall, but also the old man's bamboo weaving stall were crowded with customers.

Although I am very busy, the sound of Alipay deposits is really nice.

"If you like our products, you can go to our offline store to experience it next time you have the opportunity. Welcome to visit next time."

One of Wen Yan and Lin Qian greeted the guests and the other packed the bags. The smiles on their faces never stopped.

At 9:40 pm, the number of customers in front of the stall gradually decreased.

Although it only became popular for three or four hours, Wen Yan found that today's profit was much greater than the store's usual profit.

"Qianqian, although I haven't calculated the net income on the first day yet, I feel that the income is quite good, and this trip is still worth it."

"Really? This makes me not want to close the stall and go back."

It felt so good to have the money in hand. Lin Qian didn't feel tired at all. She even prayed that there would be more and more customers.

"Drink some water first, your mouth will be parched."

Wen Yan handed Lin Qian a bottle of water, and then drank the water.

"Why don't you bring a little bee with you tomorrow?"

"Not that much."

"Just take it with you first, and use it later if you need it."

"Makes sense."

The two chatted and laughed, and when they saw that there were no guests, they sat down to rest for a while.

The old man’s stall next door has gradually become deserted.

The old man smiled happily and kept counting the scattered cash in his hand.

After he was free, Lin Qian started chatting with him.

"Grandpa, until what time do you want to set up the stall before going back?"

"It must be half past ten anyway."

The old man seems to be used to this kind of life of setting up a stall.

"Then it won't be too late to get home after closing the stall. You are old, why are you still working so hard?"

"It's impossible if I don't work hard. I have a wife to support at home, medical treatment, and living. Money is needed everywhere."

"What about your children? Are you not going to give them living expenses?"

"The most failed thing I have ever done in my life is to raise a pair of children, both of whom are careless. When they grow up and get married, they don't want us two old people, for fear that we will become a burden to them in the future."

The old man looked angry and sad.

When Wen Yan and Lin Qian heard this, they remained silent, and their eyes felt even more sorry for this old man who should be enjoying family happiness.

"My wife is the only one who stays with me now. She is not in good health and needs to see a doctor and take medicine every month. If I don't make more money, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep her."

The old man seemed to have found someone to talk to, and he told Wen Yan and Lin Qian about the sad things at home without any secret.

"Grandpa, if your two children don't give you alimony, why don't you sue them? At least you can have some money every month without having to work so hard."

Lin Qian thought of the only way to help them, and that was the law.

Since family affection can no longer move her, she can only use the law.

After hearing Lin Qian's words, the old man sighed and shook his head.
