This, he thought self-delusionally. It was just ordinary neighborhood interaction.

Moreover, the Ning Family had specially bought a handcart and no longer borrowed it from them. Perhaps Ning Xiaoxiao had understood his meaning and had already given up.

At this thought, the corners of his mouth could not help but droop. So, she had no deep feelings for him.

On the other side, at the dining table in the Ning residence, Ning Erlang said, “Isn’t it too extravagant to use so much honey at once?”

Xiaoxiao glanced at the jar of honey. “It’s been there for so many days. It won’t be fresh if we don’t finish it.”

Tomorrow was the day of the appointment with the restaurant. Xiaoxiao and her brothers filled up the newly bought cart and went to collect the bill valiantly. The seven jars of sour bamboo shoots sent to the restaurant were exchanged for cash. With one tael of silver and 400 copper coins in hand, Ning Erlang’s smile made Xiaoxiao want to pretend not to know him.

Everyone loved to earn money. After deciding to send seven jars to the restaurant seven days later, he returned to the stall and tidied it up before sitting down and started selling. Xiaoxiao was about to pull her brother to the Ruyi Clothing Shop when she saw a familiar figure walking towards them.

The siblings stood up politely and greeted, “Hello, Auntie.”

After Xiaoxiao’s reminder, Ning Erlang no longer showed excessive enthusiasm. His action made Old Madam Wang think highly of them. His young master was indeed tired of sour bamboo shoots. But after searching most of Xijiang County, she found no other novel things. Seeing that their young master wasn’t eating, she could only try her best and come over to take a look.

She was anxious, so she went straight to the point. “Is there anything special?”

Xiaoxiao understood what she meant. They had brought new goods today, but she had to understand the customer’s situation first. “Let me ask you first. Can your young master eat spicy food?”

Although she realized that the seasonings in this world were complete and there were many types of chili peppers, she saw many spicy dishes in Fragrance Restaurant. If the young master had a bad stomach, she would not recommend her new dish. Fortunately, Old Madam Wang nodded.

Xiaoxiao took out a small jar of pickled vegetables from the stall and opened it. Everyone smelled a spicy smell that made them salivate. Xiaoxiao took a clean pair of chopsticks and flipped a bamboo shoot tip for her to eat. At the same time, she said, “It’s pickled bamboo shoot tip with pepper. It’s very appetizing.”

Old Madam Wang’s eyes lit up when she heard the word “appetizing”. She wanted one herself.

The sudden spiciness made her cough repeatedly. Xiaoxiao had no water and could only wait for Old Madam Wang to recover. “After eating one, do you eager for a mouthful of white rice? Eating a stir-fry plate of emerald green vegetables is best to drink a bowl of sweet soup after eating. If it’s summer, iced fruit is a better choice…”

That’s right, that’s right!

Old Madam Wang wanted to pay without hesitation, but Xiaoxiao quickly reminded her, “You can’t eat too much. It hurts your stomach!”

This made sense. Old Madam Wang remembered it. If her Young Master’s body was damaged, she would have to bear the consequences.

Xiaoxiao only gave the smallest jar, and Old Madam Wang was unhappy. “That’s all?”

Xiaoxiao said earnestly, “I’m doing this for you. If you bring it back and the masters are satisfied with it and insist on adding more food, will you give it to him? If you give it to them and the masters get sick from eating, won’t you have to bear the responsibility?”

What she said made sense. Old Madam Wang’s anger turned into joy. She even felt that this young lady was especially considerate. “Alright, I’ll come back in a few days.” She was confident she would get the credit for coaxing Young Master to eat today!

Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, but Ning Erlang didn’t understand. How could she reject business that came before her? Xiaoxiao sighed and explained to her second brother, “It’s mainly because I only had time to make this jar.” There was no more stock.. How could she sell it?
