Chapter 38
"Mom! Mom! How are the sales today? Are they all sold out? How much did you earn?"

As soon as Shen Baolan entered the house, before she even had time to change her shoes, she couldn't wait to ask Ma Sufen who was sitting in the living room peeling potatoes.

Ma Sufen raised her eyelids and looked at her, with a donkey face, "What the hell, I didn't sell a single one after selling it for a day."

Shen Baolan didn't believe it at all, and thought Ma Sufen was joking with her.

"Mom, don't be kidding me. The chicken cakes I make are delicious and cheap. Why can't they be sold? Not enough to sell, but almost! Tell me the truth, how much money did you make? Is there such a figure? "

Shen Baolan made a five sign.

She is not greedy, and she is satisfied if she can earn five yuan.

No matter how bad it is, it would be nice to earn two or three yuan.

Ma Sufen rolled her eyes, "It's in the kitchen cabinet, you can see for yourself!"

Shen Baolan ran into the kitchen full of joy, and opened the cabinet door. She thought that there would be a pile of money inside, but in the end, the upper and lower floors of the kitchen cabinet were full of chicken cakes and Double Ninth Cakes she made.

Shen Baolan was stunned for several seconds before she realized that her mother-in-law didn't joke with her, she really didn't sell it at all.

"Mom, did you really go downstairs to set up a stall today?"

She suspected that her mother-in-law didn't have the nerve to set up a stall at all.

Ma Sufen said angrily that she had gone downstairs to set up a stall early in the morning, and had not closed the stall until four o'clock in the afternoon when she had to pick up her grandson from school, without a single customer.

Shen Baolan didn't believe in evil, and questioned whether Ma Sufen was not enthusiastic enough, had a bad attitude, or didn't let people taste it.

In short, she decided that it must be Ma Sufen's fault that the things could not be sold, and it was definitely not that her things were bad.

When she was sleeping at night, Shen Baolan was dissatisfied and chatted with her husband about this matter, thinking that Ma Sufen was holding her back, and she didn't even know how to set up a stall.

Zhou Shuhuan replied directly, "Then you can try it yourself."

"Try it and try it, I will definitely sell it myself!"

The next day, Shen Baolan called her colleagues who worked in the cafeteria to switch shifts, took a day off, and prepared to start a business.

When Shen Mingzhu had breakfast and sent Pei Ziheng to the kindergarten, Shen Baolan's stall was already set up.

Shen Mingzhu could tell at a glance that the ones sold by Shen Baolan's stall were the same as those sold by Ma Sufen yesterday.

In this weather, it’s not a problem to keep the cakes for a day or two, just because they may not have been sealed well, the skin of the chicken cakes is a bit dark, and the Double Ninth Cakes are also dry. They don’t look fresh and make people lose their appetite.

"Selling chicken cakes, delicious and sweet chicken cakes, only two yuan and thirty cents a catty..."

Even after walking far away, Shen Baolan's loud trumpet-like voice could still be heard.

Several mothers who have a good relationship with Shen Mingzhu made fun of Shen Baolan with Shen Mingzhu, saying that Shen Baolan was learning from Shen Mingzhu, but unfortunately she did not have Shen Mingzhu's skills and craftsmanship. After talking, they asked Shen Mingzhu what she was up to recently, why didn't she just show her spread out.

Shen Mingzhu has nothing to hide, she bluntly said that she has been reading at home recently, and wanted to improve her cultural level, which attracted several mothers to praise her for being self-motivated, and Shen Mingzhu smiled and didn't take it seriously.

In the afternoon, when Shen Mingzhu picked up Pei Ziheng from school, went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and returned to the family courtyard, Shen Baolan's stall was still there.

Some of the chicken cakes were sold, but the portions seemed to be a little smaller, and there was a gap in the Double Ninth Cake. It seemed that someone tasted it but didn't buy it.

Shen Mingzhu just glanced casually, but in Shen Baolan's eyes, she decided that Shen Baolan was making fun of her, and stopped in front of Shen Mingzhu angrily.

"why are you laughing?"

Shen Mingzhu was puzzled, "Which eye of yours saw me smile?"

"I saw it! You're laughing at me!"

Shen Baolan's expression was angry, and there was still a little bit of grievance in her tone.

Not only was she aggrieved, but she also couldn't figure out why Shen Mingzhu could make money while she couldn't make money by making chicken cakes in the same way. Unfortunately, she even spent 20 yuan to go outside to find a master who sells chicken cakes to learn craft.

The more Shen Baolan thought about it, the more wronged she became, and she yelled at Shen Mingzhu, "What right do you have to laugh at me? Last time you set up a stall and didn't sell any mooncakes, and you didn't rely on my man to take care of your business. You are strong, I sold at least two catties of chicken cakes."

Shen Mingzhu was completely silent and her mother opened the door for Wuyu, and Wuyu arrived home.

She just passed by and took a look, big sister!
What if she laughed?She still can't laugh?

However, what was even more speechless was yet to come, Shen Baolan held Shen Mingzhu to her death and refused to let her go, saying that last time Zhou Shuhuan bought her moon cakes, it was a reciprocal gift, this time Shen Mingzhu would also buy her Double Ninth Cake.

Shen Mingzhu was also shocked by Shen Baolan's thick skin, "You still have the nerve to talk about moon cakes, I'm afraid you forgot that you asked me to refund the money that day?"

"If you didn't cheat my man first, would I ask you to return the goods?"

Shen Mingzhu has seen what it means to beat back.

"The eggs I sell are cheap and delicious. If you buy two catties and go back, I guarantee you will not suffer."

She still bought two catties, she was out of her mind to buy such an unattractive and unappetizing thing, and she didn't even want to give it to her for free.

"I don't buy it."

"No, you have to buy it."

Shen Mingzhu was so angry that she shouted behind Shen Baolan, "Zhou Shuhuan, come and take care of your wife!"

Shen Baolan turned her head subconsciously, but found that there was no one behind her. Only then did she realize that she had been tricked by Shen Mingzhu, but when she turned her head, Shen Mingzhu had already dragged Pei Ziheng away, and she stomped her feet in anger.

It was quite dark before Shen Baolan packed up the stall and went home.

As soon as she entered the door, her mother-in-law Ma Sufen came over with her mouth curled up, "Hey, our capable wife is back, how much did you sell from morning to night?"

When she saw that there were still a lot of chicken cakes left, and that the Chongyang Cake had not been sold at all, Ma Sufen immediately mocked it unceremoniously.

"I wonder how capable you are. You have originally made these things, but you sold them. It's a waste of money to spend so much money on books for you. I see you, don't buy porcelain if you don't have that diamond live."

Shen Baolan was already panicked in her heart, but after being scolded by Ma Sufen, she couldn't hold back her tears immediately.

"It's fine for others to laugh at me, but even you, Mom, laughed at me. Didn't I get your approval when I said I wanted to buy books and learn some crafts? Now that the business hasn't been done, why blame me alone? I'm not for this family. , I want to earn more money so that you can live a better life, what is wrong with me, woo woo woo..."

Ma Sufen doesn't like her, "You still have the face to cry. How much money have you spent to get out? You have the nerve to boast that you are better than Pei Yang's wife. I think you are half of others." Not as good!"

Zhou Quanxiong couldn't help but criticize Shen Baolan, "You just need to take care of the house and take care of Xiaohao in the future. There are men who make money, so it's not your turn to worry about it."

After being scolded by her parents-in-law, Shen Baolan felt quite sad and wronged at first, but she suddenly realized when she was sad.

The reason why Shen Mingzhu earned money was because of her eldest sister, Pei Wenping.

Although she doesn't have such a capable elder sister like Pei Wenping, she can rely on men!

She tried every means to marry into Zhou's family, didn't she just hope that Zhou Shuhuan would be able to make a fortune in the future and let her live a good life?
All she needs to do is firmly hold on to the position of the Zhou family's daughter-in-law and wait for the future to enjoy the blessings. Why should she compete with the widow's Shen Mingzhu for a while?

She's out of her mind!
