Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 66 If I said your son has no anus, would you believe me?

Li Ruru just smiled and didn't say anything.

Ren Si Niang waited for a long time, but Li Ruru just smiled and entertained the customers, completely ignoring them.

It felt like punching cotton, a deep sense of powerlessness and discomfort.

Li Ruru was busy running around, only concerned with how much money she made. She didn't care what others were doing.

If Ren Si Niang wants to sell meal packages, let her sell them. Meal packages aren't her invention, so why can't she stop others from imitating her?

While busy with her work, the plump auntie kept a close eye on the situation across the street, occasionally giving Li Ruru a brief report.

"Hey girl, look, someone went to buy from them."

"Huh? Those two left again, without buying anything."

"They don't seem to have many customers in all this time."

An hour later, Li Ruru still had two buckets of konjac tofu left.

She brought a lot with her today and plans to visit a nearby restaurant later to see if she can close a deal.

Aunt Pang's fried dough cakes were sold out, and Li Ruru was also preparing to close up shop.

Ren Si Niang couldn't resist and glanced at it casually.

"Oh dear, Li, you didn't sell all your konjac tofu today? Did you have trouble selling it? Or did you cut corners and make it taste bad?"

The knife in Aunt Pang's hand drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed steadily on the cutting board.

This scene made Ren Si Niang's eyelids twitch, and she unconsciously took a step back.

But her mouth didn't stop, "Everyone, look! Li's konjac tofu is selling out! Hahahaha!"

At this moment, the resentment that had been building up inside her was finally released. Li Ruru, you've finally met your match.

Why is it that she's the last one to set up her stall here, yet her business is the best?

Why is it that my mother-in-law's straw sandals and her white tofu business are struggling, while that tattered devil's taro is sought after by everyone every day?

Li Ruru focused on packing her things and said calmly, "It's not that we can't sell them, it's just that we made too many today."

"Hahahaha." Ren Si Niang was practically laughing hysterically. "If you can't sell them, just say you can't sell them. Why make up such an excuse? You're really good at spouting nonsense."

Li Peipei interjected, "Whether my konjac tofu sells or not is none of your business. You're being ridiculous."

Li Yinyin opened her big eyes and tilted her head, saying, "Auntie, my business isn't doing well, but has your business improved?"

Ren Siniang could retort to Li Peipei's words with a thousand different responses.

But Li Yinyin's words were like an invisible knife, deeply piercing her heart.

Only she knew that her business was even worse today than yesterday.

She couldn't understand why, even though they were both selling meal sets, theirs didn't get many buyers.

Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, everyone understood what was going on.

They originally wanted to follow suit and sell package deals, but when they saw Ren Si Niang's dark face, they all gave up on the idea.

We should just stick to selling our own products; otherwise, we might lose our original customers.

Just then, the auntie who sells spicy soup walked over angrily.

She immediately launched into a tirade against Ren Si Niang, “Ren Shi, it’s all your fault! It’s all your fault for insisting on getting me to do this special package deal, which has made me lose out big time today.”

I made significantly less money today than usual, and there are still two buckets of soup untouched.

At this time of day, she would usually only have half a bucket of spicy soup left.

Ren Si Niang's face immediately fell when she felt she had been outmaneuvered. "Why is it my fault? Didn't you agree to it? What does it have to do with me if you can't sell them?"

Upon hearing this, the auntie who sold spicy soup threw down her spoon with a bang.

With her hands on her hips, she said, "How can I not blame you! I told you our set meal should be cheaper, but you wouldn't listen and even wanted to charge more."

A bowl of spicy soup cost 5 coins, and a large piece of tofu cost 3 coins. Neither of them was willing to lower the price, so in the end, their set meal cost 10 coins.

The two of them each added one coin. The customer wasn't stupid; who would willingly spend an extra two coins?

Besides, this spicy soup has nothing to do with tofu.

One is meant to be eaten sitting down, the other is meant to be taken home and cooked.

Ren Si Niang was also a feisty woman. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Didn't you raise your price too when I raised mine?"

"It's all your fault! You were so confident back then that we could become an instant hit and crush that 'delicious' and 'full-bottle' meal set."

"You'd believe me if I told you? Would you believe me if I said your son has no anus?"

"How dare you swear at me! I'll scratch you to death!"

The two started fighting in the street as they were talking, scratching each other's faces and pulling each other's hair, fighting fiercely.

Those who sell things at the market are not cowards.

Granny Zhao rushed over to break up the fight, and the scene quickly spiraled out of control.

Li Ruru looked around while tidying up her stall.

Occasionally, he would shout, "Hey, hey, hey, move over there a bit, don't fight in front of my stall!"

After an unknown amount of time, the crowd finally separated Ren Si Niang and the spicy soup lady.

Both women were injured to varying degrees. They glared at each other fiercely and spat out a curse.

Ren Si Niang kicked the sign for the broad bean set meal to the ground and stomped on it twice in a fit of anger.

Thus, the Hu Dou Alliance, which had been established for less than half a day, completely collapsed.

After watching the excitement and packing her things, Li Ruru sat down to wait for Xiao Yishan to drive the oxcart over.

She was staring blankly into the distance when she suddenly saw a group of students in long gowns walking towards her.

They held books in their hands, their hair stood up high, and they chatted and laughed, their brows full of vitality.

Li Ruru rested her chin on her hand, envying the vitality of young people.

Although she is only in her early thirties, she is already old enough to be a grandmother in this era.

Not far away, a group of students were discussing what to eat.

A noble young man said, "I heard that there is some konjac tofu in this market, and even the magistrate's son likes to eat it."

Chen Jinbang whispered, "That's devil's tongue. It's poisonous and can't be eaten."

"Oh? How did you know? You ate there?! You, Chen Jinbang, you actually ate it all by yourself behind our backs!"

The crowd started to jeer and condemn Chen Jinbang, but he said helplessly, "That konjac tofu seller is my third aunt."

He meant that the person was her third aunt, so he knew that the thing was poisonous and couldn't be eaten.

His third aunt was doing business against her conscience, while he was upright and honest, never showing favoritism even to his own family, and would honestly tell everyone the truth.

The young man's surname was Chu. Young Master Chu said, "Since you are relatives, then you can treat us today."

So many people eat konjac tofu, it's definitely not poisonous, don't be stingy with the money."

Chen Jinbang didn't have much money on him, and Wang Shuixia often reminded him not to spend money recklessly.

But the more he lacked something, the more he seemed to be able to perform as if he was lacking in that area.

He waved his hand and said, "No problem, it's on me today."

Finally, he added in a low voice, "If you get sick from eating this, don't blame me."

Everyone shook their heads in unison, "How could that be? The magistrate's son ate it, how could it be poisonous?"

"That's right, ask us for two more bowls later. Anyway, you're family, and family meals don't cost money."

When Li Ruru saw them coming this way, she suddenly sat up straight and her smile disappeared.

Peipei noticed her change immediately, "Mom, what's wrong?"
