Chapter 171: Introduce someone to you
Lan Xin didn't care much about the hair band issue and didn't plan to continue doing it. After all, the market is now very large, and all kinds of hair bands will soon follow. The market will become more and more competitive, and it will be difficult to make money.
It was afternoon when they got home. Cuihua wiped the sweat from her head and told Lanxin with a smile that she had not let her down.
"Lan Xin, including this morning, I cooked a total of 1700 tea eggs..."
Old Lady Lan, who was helping out, smiled and nodded amiably: "Cuihua did a good job today. The taste of these pots of tea eggs is not much different from your previous ones."
When Old Lady Lan saw that Lan Xin was planning to let Ma Cuihua cook the tea eggs by herself, she followed over out of concern, intending to help while seeing how Ma Cuihua was doing to see if she had any bad intentions.
Although she was the one who introduced Ma Cuihua to Lan Xin, and she believed in Ma Cuihua's character, she never expected Lan Xin to be so bold that she dared to let her do it the next day. She was so scared that she came over to help immediately.
After observing for a day, Old Mrs. Lan felt that Ma Cuihua had lived up to the trust of her and her son at all, and she was very satisfied with her.
"That's great. I said Sister Cuihua is amazing. With her help, I can feel much more relaxed."
Lan Xin praised Ma Cuihua as if it was free, and she felt so embarrassed that her face turned red.
"Come here, Sister Cuihua, take these candies back and let the children taste them. It will be your reward for your hard work today."
"No, no, no, I can't have it." Looking at Lan Xin grabbing a handful of White Rabbit milk candies, she had seen this thing in the supply and marketing cooperative. It was very expensive, so she couldn't have it.
"Cooking tea eggs is my job. I've already been paid. How can I accept this candy from you?"
Moreover, this pile of candies was more expensive than her day’s wages.
"How can they be the same? Wages are wages, and these candies are for Brother Changshan and my two little nephews. I have to coax them since you come to work early and come back late." Lan Xin said with a smile.
"How can I do that? You hired my studio to help our whole family, I can't ask for anything more." Ma Cuihua still refused. Lan Xin forcefully stuffed the candy into her arms, "Just two candies to moisten your mouth, don't refuse."
After stuffing the candy, Lan Xin asked again: "My eldest brother and the others haven't come back yet?"
At this time in the past, Lan Qing and her friends would have already sold the day's tea eggs and returned, but today they wanted to make more money so they cooked a lot of tea eggs, so they would probably be back a little later.
Ma Cuihua shook her head: "Not yet. We cooked four rounds of tea eggs in total. They took the last round of tea eggs less than two hours ago. It will probably take a little longer to come back."
Lan Xin nodded and let Ma Cuihua go home. She waited for Lan Qing to come back.
Ma Cuihua wiped her hands on her pants, took the wages handed to her by Lan Xin, and held a pocket of candy, "I will come over when work starts. If there is anything at home in the past, just come to me."
"Okay." Lan Xin nodded with a smile and sent Ma Cuihua away.
Seeing that it was still early and thinking about what Ma Cuihua had just said about the fourth round of tea eggs being taken out not long ago, Lan Xin packed up her things and followed her up the mountain, intending to help sell them.
Old Mrs. Lan planned to go with Lan Xin. As soon as Yingying and Yueyue entered the village, they ran to play with their friends. Lan Xin simply locked the door and yard, and went up the mountain together.
It was already past 4 p.m., and the tourists on Mount Sanqing were all heading back down the road. If it was any later, there would be no cars and it would be dark.
Lan Xin took a look and said to Old Lady Lan, "Mom, let's go down the mountain first to check on my little brother."
Lan Qing and his friends sell their tea eggs in pairs, and they are both mature adults. In comparison, Lan Xi, who is younger and sells tea eggs alone, needs more help.
After hearing what Lan Xin said, Old Lady Lan nodded, and the two of them walked down the mountain at a rapid pace. They were so vigorous along the way that they were simply beyond the reach of the tourists who had just taken time out to come and visit.
They soon reached the foot of the mountain. Lan Xin looked around and soon found the place where Lan Xi sold tea eggs. Anyway, she just followed the scent of tea eggs nearby. The place with the richest smell and the most people must be it.
Along the way, it was not only old lady Lan Xinlan and her friends who were attracted by the smell of tea eggs, but also the hungry tourists who had just come down the mountain. These tourists surrounded Lan Xi, buying tea eggs from him and teasing him.
"How much is one? I saw people selling tea eggs in the mountains. Are they your family?"
"Yes, that's my brother and his friends. Tea eggs are 2 each." Lan Xi nodded while collecting the money.
"Young man, I want to introduce you to someone. Can you sell the tea eggs to me at a lower price?"
"No, no, all tea eggs are priced this way." Lan Xi said with red ears.
"Is it not possible to introduce you to someone?"
"Tsk tsk, the young man is so thin-skinned that his face turns red after just a few words. How can he find a wife?" As she said that, the old lady reached out and pulled Lanxi's face.
Lanxi was surrounded by a bunch of old men and women, talking here and there, her thin little face turning red.
Moreover, some of the middle-aged women like to touch her, making Lanxi feel helpless and laughing.
The crime of hooliganism is committed by young people, or by old men who are shameless towards young girls, but the actions of middle-aged women who touch arms and pinch cheeks under the pretext of finding a partner for Lanxi will not be charged as hooliganism.
Lanxi's face turned red and she almost cried.
Lan Xin saw this and laughed secretly, and came over to help him out: "Big sister, tea eggs are 2 cents each and 6 cents for two, how many do you want?"
"sister!"
Lanxi was overjoyed to see Lanxin, as if she had seen a savior, and quickly hid behind her.
Lan Xin comforted Lan Xi, took over his position, and continued to say to the tourists: "Don't play with my brother, he is still a student and plans to go to college."
The tourists were all surprised when they heard this, "Wow, he's still a high school student."
"It takes a lot of skill to get into college."
Hearing that Lanxi was planning to go to college and was still a student, the uncles and aunts stopped teasing Lanxi and started bargaining with Lanxin to buy tea eggs.
These tea eggs tasted really good. They met Lan Qing and the others on the mountain, but they didn't buy any because they thought they were too expensive. Now they have walked all the way down the mountain, they are getting hungrier and greedier, and they can't refuse them at all.
Watching Lan Xin and Old Lady Lan helping to deal with these ferocious customers, Lan Xi took a deep breath, and after taking a break, he joined in the selling.
Soon, all his tea eggs were sold out.
It was because all the tourists were going down the mountain at this time. So many people gathered at the foot of the mountain. Everyone was hungry after climbing the mountain for a whole day, and they couldn't resist the smell at all.
Suddenly you bought a few and I bought a few, and the tea eggs were sold out one after another.
