Chapter 37 Being targeted, no business for the time being
Li Yang got off work a little late today. He hurried towards No. 1 Middle School after get off work, fearing that the steamed bun seller would be gone if he got there late.
But he didn't expect to see Su Yun selling steamed buns at the intersection as soon as he left the factory area.
He walked over quickly.
Su Yun just happened to give the last steamed bun to the last guest. At the same time, she inserted a somewhat familiar young male voice: "Comrade, give me a yuan of steamed buns."
Su Yun raised her head and saw Li Yang, who was covered in sweat. She remembered that he was the first customer to open the store yesterday, and he also bought a dollar.
This man seems to have no shortage of money.
But it's a pity that she has no steamed buns.
"Sorry, comrade, the steamed buns are sold out today."
More than 600 steamed buns were all sold out.
Li Yang's hand holding out the money paused.
"sold out?"
"Yes."
"No one left?"
He asked reluctantly.
Su Yun nodded sincerely, her attitude towards customers who supported her business was very friendly.
"there is none left."
Li Yang:......
He got off the night shift and went to repair two machines in the factory. Why did he come out and even the steamed buns were sold out? Of course, he didn't have to eat these steamed buns, he just wanted to buy them for his grandmother at home.
Grandma is old and has bad teeth. Yesterday, she brought these steamed buns back and she happily ate one.
He just wanted to take a few back today.
I didn't expect it to be gone.
After listening to Li Yang's explanation, Su Yun shook her head with a solemn expression. She admired Li Yang's filial piety, but she really couldn't change into a steamed bun.
Li Yang asked her relentlessly if she would make steamed buns again tomorrow? He wanted to order ten.
Su Yun nodded. Li Yang asked for a deposit, but she took it away.
Ten steamed buns are not a lot, so there is no need to charge a deposit.
Moreover, it is not certain whether tomorrow’s steamed buns will sell well.
While talking to Li Yang, Su Yun caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure in a corner not far away, which seemed to have been staring at them.
Her heart was trembling, and goosebumps could not help but rise on her back.
After saying goodbye to Li Yang in a hurry, Su Yun picked up her backpack and left the county town with Mrs. Xiao.
She didn't even go to the supply and marketing cooperative. After leaving the county town, she got on the ox cart back to the village and went straight to the village.
On the way, she seemed not to pay attention to the backpack placed at her feet, but in fact she kept her eyes on it.
After all, what was inside was a huge sum of nearly sixty yuan.
After sitting in Uncle Zhang's car, she returned to the village safely. After entering the Xiao family gate, Su Yun's pounding heart finally calmed down a little. She walked to the kitchen water tank and drank a big ladle of cold water.
Belly.
Xiao Lin, who was working in the backyard, heard the noise outside and someone came out of the backyard. When he saw Su Yun standing by the water tank with her arms propped up and her face pale, he immediately put down the tools in his hands and limped.
come over.
"Xiaoyun, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? I'm going to find a barefoot doctor right away."
"Need not……"
Su Yun raised her hand and held Xiao Lin's sleeve, "I'm fine, I'm just a little scared."
"Scared? What's going on?"
Xiao Lin frowned, and the aura exuding from his whole body became cold and severe.
Su Yun raised her head to meet his concerned gaze. She covered her rapidly beating heart and briefly told Xiao Lin that she and her grandma might have been targeted in the county town.
When Xiao Lin finished listening, he nervously grabbed her wrist.
"Did they do anything to you?"
Su Yun shook her head, "I'm fine, and I can only guess whether that person is a bad person and whether he is targeting me."
Xiao Lin's face also darkened. It was obvious that he was also thinking. He lowered his eyes and glanced at his leg, wishing to give it a hard hammer. Why was it so ineffective?
If his legs could be used better, he could accompany her to the county seat, so he wouldn't be afraid of her being targeted.
"Xiaoyun..."
"Don't worry, it's okay." Su Yun smiled, comforting Xiao Lin and herself.
………
In the evening they ate Erhe noodle steamed buns. Su Yun scooped out a bowl of the remaining Fuqiang powder, added crushed cornmeal, and steamed a pot of Erhe noodle steamed buns.
The vegetables are small green vegetables from the vegetable patch in the backyard. They are simply stir-fried and added with some chili pepper, which makes them perfect for steamed buns.
Ye Wan saw the Erhe noodle steamed buns on the table and said, "Xiaoyun, you are going to use this white flour for business, how can you steam it for your family to eat?"
Su Yun originally wanted to announce her decision after dinner, but now that Ye Wan took the initiative to ask, she simply made it clear.
"Grandma, aunt, I've thought about it. From tomorrow on, I won't go directly to the county town to sell steamed buns."
"Not going? Why?" Ye Wan didn't know what happened. It was normal for her to be confused.
After all, Su Yun's business seems to be very good these two days, and the steamed buns she brings to the county town are sold out every day.
Such a good business, why don't you just stop doing it?
Su Yun hummed and explained slowly. When Mrs. Xiao and Ye Wan heard that some gangsters might be targeting Su Yun, they were so frightened that they dropped the chopsticks in their hands.
"what happened?"
"I guess business has been so good these past two days that people are jealous." Su Yun expressed her guess.
It was also because she didn't think carefully enough about things, thinking that she would be foolproof once she came up with an idea to make money, but she didn't expect that right now, the outside world is in the most chaos.
With the opening of the college entrance examination and the return of educated youth to the city, a large number of people who could not find jobs also poured into the city, becoming a blind stream with no job and no income. Selling steamed buns like her with such great fanfare will definitely attract their attention.
She didn't want to guess what these blind people would do, and she didn't dare to gamble with her life.
For her own safety, she planned to suspend her business.
Although making money is important, without lives it is all just talk.
The Xiao family is extremely supportive of her decision.
Ye Wan and Mrs. Xiao nodded repeatedly, "It's good to be at home, it's good to be at home. We still have a few acres of land, so we won't starve to death."
They did not force Su Yun to continue doing business.
If this were someone else, the vampire parents of the old Su family, I'm afraid they wouldn't even force her to do business, they would even wish she was hurt by a blind abortion...
I don't know why I thought of them again? Su Yun quickly shook her head and got rid of the thoughts in her mind.
After dinner, Xiao Lin washed the dishes as usual.
After he had cleaned everything up, Su Yun poured out the money earned today, and the family of four sorted it out. When they added up the money they counted, they found that the amount was as much as sixty-two yuan.
Su Yun wanted to give each of them a few dollars, but no matter who the three of them were, they didn't want her money.
Mrs. Xiao even handed over the fifteen yuan that Su Yun originally gave her.
"Xiaoyun, you will be in charge of this house from now on, and the money should be managed uniformly by you."
Ye Wan followed suit and didn't feel at all that it was a loss of face that she couldn't be the leader.
"Your grandma is right, Anzi is boring, Xiaoyun is the only one who can take care of this family."
She also wants back the twelve yuan that Su Yun gave her before.
Su Yun couldn't help laughing as she looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were scrambling to return the money.
Just as she was about to laugh, there was a banging sound on the door outside the yard, and along with it, there was Yu Hu's voice.
"Brother Lin, sister-in-law, open the door. Open the door. The village chief asked his sister-in-law to go to old Su's house. The village chief asked his sister-in-law to go to old Su's house."
