Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains
Chapter 45: Jealousy
Aunt Niu was returning from Xia Yingying's house and happened to meet Du Shuili carrying a load of radishes at the entrance of the village.
"Aunt Niu, where have you been?" Du Shuili asked with a smile.
Aunt Niu walked forward, took out a piece of cake and handed it to Du Shuili: "I just delivered the vegetables that Yingying bought, and she gave me a few cakes. Try them."
"I've heard that Yingying is selling cakes in town and they're very popular. I've always wanted to find a chance to try some. Thanks to you." Du Shuili put down her burden, took out a handkerchief, wiped her hands, and took the cakes.
Du Shuili took a bite and only praised Xia Yingying's cooking skills.
Aunt Niu nodded and praised: "Xia Yingying used to be a scumbag, but now she has changed for the better. With her pastry-making skills, it is not a problem for her to support several children."
"Yes, if I had this skill, I would sell it, but unfortunately I don't have it."
Du Shuili finished a piece of cake and was still not satisfied: "Aunt Niu, does Yingying also make cakes when she is not at the market?"
"I don't know about that either, but my niece-in-law told me that she was selling it in Xinghua Village last time."
Aunt Niu suddenly remembered that Xia Yingying asked her to talk about buying eggs.
"Aunt Niu, don't worry. My eggs are definitely for Yingying. I just sold some eggs to her a few days ago. Now there are only a few eggs left at home. I'll save some and give them to her."
"Alright."
After chatting for a few more words, Aunt Niu went back first.
Du Shuili wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and prepared to go back, when she heard a voice cursing.
Li Cuihua had just returned from town when she heard Du Shuili and Aunt Niu praising Xia Yingying. Her mouth twisted and she uttered sweet words.
"Humph, what good is a pastry made by a bitch? Aren't you afraid of rotting your intestines after eating it?"
She also heard about Xia Yingying making pastries, but how could they be delicious if they were made by a bitch? She couldn't keep up the expectation that Xia Yingying's pastries would be made every day.
But when she went to the market, she saw that Xia Yingying's pastry stall was surrounded by people and all her cakes were sold out, making a lot of money. She was so jealous that she was about to burst into flames.
"Are you cheap or not? People make money by making cakes, what does it have to do with you? Do you have cow dung in your mouth? Your mouth stinks so bad?"
Du Shuili never liked Li Cuihua, and when she saw Li Cuihua being rude, she couldn't help but scold her.
"Hmph, it's none of your business if I scold Xia Yingying. You're meddling in other people's business." Li Cuihua rolled her eyes at Du Shuili.
Du Shuili pulled a radish from her shoulder pole and threw it at Li Cuihua on the head, stunning her.
Du Shuili looked at her unfriendly and murderous.
"Xia Yingying is my friend, do you think everything is okay?"
"Li Cuihua, you are ugly and foul-mouthed. Seeing Yingying's cakes selling well, you are so jealous that you bark at everyone you catch like a mad dog. If you have the ability, why don't you go and make cakes and sell them? Why are you going crazy here?"
"You...you...don't talk nonsense." Li Cuihua was speechless after being rebuked by Du Shuili, but then she thought, since that bitch Xia Yingying can make cakes and sell them, why can't she?
Liu Xiucai was about to take the exam, and his family was not well off. When she got married, the dowry would not be enough for their expenses, so they had to find a way to make a living.
That bitch Xia Yingying sells such good cakes, but she is much smarter than that bitch.
Du Shuili rolled her eyes at Li Cuihua and walked over to pick up the radishes. Li Cuihua ran away like a rabbit.
"What a coward." Du Shuili put the radishes on the shoulder pole and looked at Li Cuihua with contempt.
The next morning, when Xia Yingying packed her things into her backpack and was about to go out, she called Lu Yuwei and Lu Haoran to follow her.
"Stepmother, I don't have much to do at home, so I can help you with some things while you guys are doing business."
Lu Yuwei had no objection, and Xia Yingying didn't object either.
The three of them went to the village next to Xinghua Village, Taohua Village. Taohua Village is smaller than Xinghua Village, but also very large.
The village they were going to this time was a little far away, so Xia Yingying rested several times.
"Stepmother, why don't we sell it in the nearby village? We don't have to walk so far."
"The village near us is too small, and there are many mountain roads over there, and we have to climb over the mountains. The village near Xinghua Village has more people and is bigger, so it will be easier to sell cakes here." Xia Yingying wiped the sweat off her face and stomped her sore feet.
Lu Haoran had never seen Xia Yingying selling cakes before. This was his first time here.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, Lu Yuwei shouted, "Fragrant and sweet steamed cakes, free to try. If they don't taste good, you don't have to pay."
Lu Yuwei had followed Xia Yingying to sell twice and had already mastered the art of shouting.
Xia Yingying put down the backpack, and soon people from the village came.
Some people bought it at the market yesterday and this time they just came to join in the fun.
"Madam, I bought some of your pastries yesterday. Can I have a sample today?"
"Of course, sister, can you tell everyone about the taste of my pastries?" Xia Yingying nodded with a smile and asked Lu Yuwei to give the tasting pastries to the woman.
The woman was happy to share the free food.
"Fellow villagers, I bought two pieces of cakes sold by this lady on the street yesterday. They tasted very good. I brought them home to feed my children. If you want to buy, you can try them first. There are free samples here. If you think they are delicious, then buy them. It is not a loss at all."
Others who were watching from the sidelines saw that people from their own village were helping to promote the product and lined up to try it.
Seeing that the plate in front was almost empty, people behind started to crowd in.
"Hey, wait a minute, I haven't even tried the food yet, how come it's over?"
The tasting cakes were all snapped up, and Xia Yingying cut another piece and put it on the plate.
"Don't be anxious, take your time, everyone can try the food. The tasting is here, and those who want to buy pastries can line up over here." Xia Yingying pointed towards Lu Yuwei and then pointed in front of herself.
Shortly after the tasting, there were a few more people queuing up at Xia Yingying's place, which was originally empty, and then more and more people came.
Xia Yingying wrapped the pastries with oil paper, and Lu Haoran was responsible for collecting the money.
In a short while, most of the cakes were sold and the bag was mostly full.
There were fewer and fewer people behind, and finally there was no one left, but half of the pastries in the basket were still left.
Lu Yuwei looked at the remaining cakes and said sadly, "Stepmother, there are still so many cakes, and no one in this village is coming."
"It's okay, let's go to the next village."
The three of them put their things in the backpack. Lu Haoran took the initiative to lift the backpack: "Stepmother, let me carry it. You carried it when we came here, and now it's my turn."
Xia Yingying weighed the things in the backpack and found that they were not too heavy, so she did not insist and let Lu Haoran carry it.
This village is called Liushu Village, and it is much smaller than the previous village.
As soon as Xia Yingying arrived at the entrance of the village, she heard a familiar voice calling out, "Cakes for sale. Sweet and fragrant cakes. Free samples. If they don't taste good, you don't have to pay."
