Chapter 104： Lucky

Chapter 104: Attracting Wealth

“Sister, why are you so willing to bring Niuniu to the shop today?”

As soon as Liu Xiaoru saw Niu Niu, she immediately held her in her arms.

Niu Niu also pressed her little face softly towards Liu Xiaoru.

Zhang Yunniang said with a smile: "Niuniu misses you at home, so I will bring her over to see you."

While talking, she took out a plate of preserved fruits from the basket and handed it to Liu Xiaoru.

This was originally given to Liu Xiaoru, but she didn't eat it herself. Instead, she fed it to Niu Niu one after another.

Liu Xiaoru stood close to the little girl while feeding her, pretending to be surprised and said: "I miss Niu Niu too. We haven't seen you for two days. My dear, how come you have become more beautiful again!"

Niu Niu tilted her head and said, "Aunt Liu and I have the same mind."

Liu Xiaoru happily fed another preserved fruit after hearing this. Watching Niu Niu eat, she unexpectedly felt satisfied.

Zhang Yuniang looked at this situation and said angrily: "I brought you food, what did you feed her?"

Liu Xiaoru said: "I ate a lot of good food during the Chinese New Year and gained weight. But it's better for us Niuniu. She is growing taller. No matter how much she eats, she will only grow taller and not gain weight."

Niu Niu stuffed several preserved fruits into her mouth. At this time, her cheeks were bulging, looking like a chubby little hamster.

Liu Xiaoru spent the New Year alone in the county. Zhang Yunniang and Gu Mingda wanted to go to Qingshui Village to spend the New Year. But Liu Xiaoru also lived in the village before and knew that if she really went there, the women in the village would not know how to gossip. .

"I have something to ask you..."

As soon as Zhang Yunniang started talking, an elderly woman walked in from the door.

"Cut two taels of pig head meat." The old woman said with a smile.

Liu Xiaoru glanced at Zhang Yunniang apologetically, put Niuniu on the chair, stood up and greeted the guests: "Aunt Sun, you haven't been here for a while, why don't you cut the meat and go back to feed your son with wine?"

Aunt Sun nodded with a smile and said, "I have eaten a lot of other people's braised food, but yours still tastes the best. No matter...it doesn't matter, yours is the best."

Liu Xiaoru hadn't realized what Aunt Sun had left unfinished, but Zhang Yunniang was keenly aware that something was wrong.

"Aunt Sun, you just said 'even', what did you originally want to say?" Zhang Yuniang asked bluntly.

Aunt Sun smiled awkwardly and said, "It's nothing, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Zhang Yunniang inexplicably felt that this sentence seemed important, but Aunt Sun had no intention of saying it.

Niu Niu slid down from the chair, walked to Aunt Sun, and said crisply: "Mother-in-law, are you dissatisfied with the food in our store? Just mention it and we will try our best to meet your request."

The little girl looked like a doll in a New Year painting, and she was looking at Aunt Sun seriously with her big, beautiful eyes.

Aunt Sun was so hard-hearted that she couldn't help but soften at this time. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked Niu Niu's soft hair and said: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that these words don't sound good...it's just...I heard people say, you guys The braised food at home is not clean, there is a lot of mud in the braised soup, and it is also mixed with gold juice.”

Zhang Yuniang took a deep breath after hearing this.

The name "Golden Juice" sounds noble, but it is actually just dung water.

The person who spread the rumor was evil-minded and determined not to allow business in the shop. If such rumors are circulating in private, no wonder braised food is sold less and less every day.

Niu Niu didn't understand what golden juice was, so she raised her head and said to Aunt Sun: "Mother-in-law, my family makes braised food together, and we eat it ourselves. There is absolutely no mud or golden juice. Niu Niu will not lie to my mother-in-law. "

Aunt Sun looked at the child's big pure eyes. She believed this. She couldn't help but regret in her heart. Because of a rumor whose authenticity was doubtful, she actually went to buy braised food from another place during this period. She felt that her money was wasted. Very worthless.

In fact, Aunt Sun couldn't explain why she walked in by accident today. She originally wanted to avoid it, but she walked in inexplicably.

Liu Xiaoru wrapped the cut pork head and handed it to Aunt Sun, and asked: "Auntie, do you know who said this?"

Aunt Sun shook her head and said: "I also heard it from my relatives, and my relatives also heard it from others. Suddenly, the whole alley said that your family's food was unclean. I don't know who was the first to say it. "

After Aunt Sun left, Liu Xiaoru said: "Maybe it's because Niu Niu came here and brought money. Usually no one comes in to buy braised food at this time."

Zhang Yunniang was puzzled: "During the Chinese New Year period, there are people waiting outside the shop every day, so why is the business so bad?"

Liu Xiaoru looked guilty: "Before the Lantern Festival, there were many people lining up outside the shop every day when it opened. After the Lantern Festival, the number of customers was getting smaller and smaller every day. I originally thought it was because of the Lantern Festival, but I didn't expect that someone was behind it. Sister, I'm too slow."

Zhang Yunniang couldn't bear to scold her sister harshly, and comforted her: "You are already busy enough guarding the shop all day long. Besides, she is a local gangster and acts behind the scenes, so there is no way to prevent her."

Liu Xiaoru forced a smile.

Niu Niu suddenly said: "Aunt Liu, can you cut some braised food for me?"

Liu Xiaoru would never refuse Niu Niu's request and immediately went behind the counter to cut the braised food platter for Niu Niu.

Zhang Yuniang thought it was a child who was greedy, but she did not preach to her daughter in front of others. Instead, she told Liu Xiaoru: "Cut less. She just ate so much preserved fruit that she can't even hold it in her stomach."

Liu Xiaoru nodded on the surface, but in fact, her men did not stop and soon brought out a large plate for Niu Niu.

"Anyway, we may not be able to sell out today. Guobao is open to eating." Liu Xiaoru also thought that Niu Niu was suddenly greedy.

After Niuniu dragged the chair to the door of the shop, she moved a small mat to sit on, and then she lay down on the chair and started eating.

The place where she stayed was the most conspicuous place in the shop, and people passing by could see her.

The originally deserted shop gradually became lively after the little girl performed a live eating performance.

Zhang Yunniang and Liu Xiaoru had no chance to chat at all. They were busy greeting customers all morning, most of whom were regular customers who had not come to take care of business during this period.

The regular customers looked at Niu Niu eating with gusto, and suddenly felt that their suspicions during this period were ridiculous. The food owners in the shop fed their own children with confidence, how could it be unclean?

They felt that they had really lost their minds in the past and believed the nonsense in the rumors.

Zhang Yunniang and Liu Xiaoru both stared at Niu Niu dumbfounded.

Niu Niu was completely unaware of their shock. She was still sitting at the door, tilting her head and eating very seriously. Her face was full of satisfaction, and her belly gradually bulged out.

Cheng He at the entrance of the alley stared at this scene in stunned silence. He could hardly hold the food box in his hand.
