Xiao Yingchun stood up: "Aunt, why are you here at this hour? You came alone?"
Ge Chunyu sneered: "I've heard you've become a big businessman, moving goods all over the city. I heard you moved tens of thousands of boxes of compressed biscuits? You made hundreds of thousands on a single order, right?"
"You're making so much money, why are you so reluctant to pay back that small amount of money?"
"Aunt is incompetent. I was fooled into thinking this shop would be profitable. After taking over your small shop, not only did I not make any money, I even lost money."
"You said you wanted it back, and I didn't ask for a penny. I even gave it back to you. Now that you're rich, why do you still want me to add money to it?"
Xiao Yingchun was stunned.
The matter was clear, so why did Ge Chunyu make it sound like it was all her fault?!
What had she done to make her think she was easy to bully?
Did she think she was a pushover because she didn't ask for her money when she wanted to take over the shop?!
Ge Chunyu continued to ramble, "I don't want any more money from you. I'll be working for free this year, but you can't let me lose any more money..."
Xiao Yingchun interrupted, "Aunt, since you're making such a compelling argument, how about this?"
"Tomorrow, I'll invite Grandma's family, my uncle's family, and yours, and we'll sit down for dinner together."
"Let's sort this out and work out a solution, okay?"
Ge Chunyu was satisfied: all she wanted was Xiao Yingchun to give in.
"Okay, reserve a spot and post it in the family group." Ge Chunyu twisted her plump waist and left.
Xiao Yingchun sat at the counter, sulking, her face vacant. Mom had three sisters: Aunt was the eldest, Uncle was the second, and Mom was the youngest.
Since childhood, Uncle had been unconditionally favored because he was a boy; Aunt, with her powerful tongue, also received favoritism.
Only Mom, the youngest, and a slow talker, was the most completely ignored.
When my grandparents' house was later demolished, three of the six apartments were given to my uncle, two to my aunt, and one to my grandparents. Only my mother was left without a home
. She was left with this plot of land, which hadn't even been built yet.
My aunt had said, "
Who knows if this land will be demolished in the future? You'll get more money, and it'll be a bargain for my little sister!" No one knew if it would ever be demolished.
My mother said nothing, and asked my father to borrow money to build this small two-story house.
The family settled there, and Xiao Yingchun was born that same year. They've lived there for over twenty years.
This place was originally on the outskirts of the city, and after the initial surge in demolition, many people assumed that anything that hadn't been demolished would remain so.
My aunt had been able to make such condescending and self-righteous statements.
"Xiao girl, why are you sitting here crying?" Ye Yubin's voice rang out.
He was closing the shop, preparing to go drink, when he passed by the convenience store and saw Xiao Yingchun wiping her tears at the counter.
Xiao Yingchun wiped away her tears. "It's okay, Uncle Ye, where are you going?"
"Don't change the subject! Are you in trouble? Tell me, I'll find a solution." Uncle Ye stared at Xiao Yingchun sternly.
Xiao Yingchun knew he was serious, so she told him the truth.
After explaining the situation regarding her aunt's recent arrival, Ye Yubin frowned and hesitated.
"If you can get rid of them with a small amount of money, that would be best. It's best to sever ties, the sooner the better."
Xiao Yingchun was stunned. Who would instigate someone to sever ties with their relatives?
Ye Yubin scratched his head. "There are some things I can't tell you right now. If you trust me, just listen to me this time. It'll save you a lot of trouble later."
Xiao Yingchun thought about Ye Yubin's indifferent nature, his focus on a glass of wine, and then considered their friendship.
Could it be that Uncle Ye knew something inside? Was that the reason he was reminding her like this?
Knowing he was genuinely doing this for her own good, Xiao Yingchun thanked him sincerely, "Uncle, I understand. I'll take care of it as soon as possible."
Seeing Ye Yubin about to leave, Xiao Yingchun remembered the payment for the goods: "Uncle, don't leave so quickly. I'll give you the money for the medicine."
But Ye Yubin waved his hand and said, "We'll settle it together once everything is ready..." He left.
Xiao Yingchun sat there for a while, no longer interested in business, and simply closed the shop.

After booking a private room at Yuwei Restaurant for tomorrow night, Xiao Yingchun sent a message to the family group, explaining the reason, and went upstairs to sleep.
A silent night followed. The next morning, Xiao Yingchun checked the family group messages, which were already buzzing with excitement.
Her aunt and uncle asked why they were suddenly treating her to a meal, and whether she had struck it rich.
Her grandparents sent a voice message, asking about Xiao Yingchun's recent situation.
Only her aunt, Ge Chunyu, was pleased but also aggrieved: "I managed her store for the whole year last year, and Yingchun is about to give me an explanation in front of everyone. "
Xiao Yingchun saw the messages and, quoting Ge Chunyu, replied, "Yes."
"…" Everyone fell silent.
After a moment, her aunt said, "See you tonight. Roses."
Putting her phone in her pocket, Xiao Yingchun went to get some noodles, then went to Uncle Wu's distillery.
Uncle Wu said he'd send it over later: one thousand Guangxi briefcase wine barrels for ten thousand yuan.
After saying that, Uncle Wu called the other party, but the person on the other end was even more anxious than Xiao Yingchun, saying that the goods had been loaded and were on the way!
Xiao Yingchun didn't care about anything else and hurried home.
Not long after arriving home, the plastic barrels were delivered, all of which were ten liters in capacity.
Xiao Yingchun quickly asked someone to put the plastic barrels into the warehouse and settled the bill with the boss.
Closing the front door and opening the back door, the Time and Space Supermarket began to open.
Almost as soon as the door opened, Fu Chenan walked in.
Fu Chenan was wearing a crimson robe today, and he still had his hair tied up with a white jade crown. His facial features were even more handsome.
Xiao Yingchun was stunned: "Have you been waiting for a long time?" Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
Fu Chenan nodded: "I walked into the fog as you said, but the door didn't open, so I stood there waiting."
"How long did you wait?"
"Not long."
Fu Chenan seemed not to want to dwell on this matter anymore, and directly changed the subject: "Have the plastic buckets arrived?"
"Yes."
Fu Chenan didn't just pay and leave, but pointed to the empty snack shelves: "The soldiers all think this is delicious, can we have some more?"
Xiao Yingchun nodded: "No problem, it will probably be delivered soon."
"Okay." Fu Chenan's eyes fell on the colorful packages again, "What else is delicious? Tell me about it?"
Xiao Yingchun loved to do this!
She immediately took over the whole row of hanging snacks.
"This is called shredded squid, made from a kind of fish in the sea. Some people are not used to it and think it's fishy, but some people love it. Try it..."
"This is Liuliumei. Do you have candied fruit? It's similar to that thing. Try it..."
"And this, this is drunkard peanuts. Try it..."
"These are all biscuits, cakes, and small breads, in various flavors. Try them too..."
"..."
I am rushing to the top of the list. I will add more chapters from time to time
