Chapter 149

Especially, these people were all standing at the village entrance, each one staring in this direction.

Yao Shu called out to the villagers:

"Old Party Secretary, Mr. Ning has come to sell goods for our village!"

Ning Chen looked at these people.

Normally, one would naturally exchange a polite greeting.

Yet, he saw this huge crowd before him, the gaze of everyone.

All glaring at him.

But everyone wore a blank expression!

This feeling was somewhat eerie.

So, Ning Chen said nothing.

He stared back at them.

Suddenly!

From the left crowd, seven or eight heavily made-up village women and aunts.

Burst out all at once!

Ning Chen suddenly turned to look at these people!

Then, these seven or eight aunts actually started dancing in unison, twisting their steps!

Right after, on the right, a huge wave of little kids.

Led by a girl, began singing in chorus!

"Good days, oh good days! Today is a good day! Kind streamer comes to my home! Come help me sell goods!..."

Suddenly, the sound of suona horns rang out again from the crowd...

Ning Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.

Yao Shu, the teacher beside him.

Was also stunned by this scene...

Turning her head, when she saw the expression on the face of Mr. Ning beside her.

She almost laughed too.

What kind of expression was that on Mr. Ning...

His expression actually had no expression at all, yet clearly, it was as if he had seen something unimaginable.

A man suddenly rushed out, fierce and strutting proudly.

Straight toward Ning Chen!

Ning Chen hadn't even reacted yet.

That man shoved a carton of cigarettes into Ning Chen's hand!

"Thanks, I don't smoke—"

"Then take it to give to someone!"

Having spoken, the man struttingly returned to the ranks...

Ning Chen looked down at the cigarettes in his hand...

The children beside him.

Their singing was incredibly childish, and that little girl leading them sang with extra effort.

The square dancing by the aunts also ended.

Those uncles blowing the suona, their Sai Gang puffed out, had just put down the horns in their hands.

Ning Chen looked at all this, with no expression on his face.

But his pupils were still contracting.

The people here.

Were they, perhaps, a bit too honest?

A ceremony of such scale had somewhat disrupted his rhythm.

Yao Shu whispered in his ear, "Mr. Ning, don't be scared... their welcome ceremony, young people might think it's outdated and too rustic, but they all mean well... they just want to express their gratitude to you..."

Ning Chen nodded.

Another auntie rushed over, holding a basket of things in her hands.

Because she was too nervous, she stumbled a bit while walking.

She arrived before Ning Chen.

She shoved another bundle into Ning Chen's arms...

Daring not to speak, not knowing how to speak, she turned her head and left again...

Ning Chen looked at the things in his arms, a basket of local eggs and various other local specialties big and small.

He raised his head.

Around him, all was quiet.

All the villagers, after finishing these acts, also felt a sense of great satisfaction.

They all had a face full of expectations, looking at that young and handsome man.

Yes, next, he should say something.

Of course, he should say something.

Where is the logic in not speaking?

After all, isn't it usually like this?

First came a very enthusiastic welcome ceremony, then the protagonist stepped forward and said a few opening words.

Then everyone would have to applaud vigorously.

Of course, it should be like that.

But.

At this moment, the man known as "Mr. Ning".

Just like that, holding a huge pile of things in his hands, he looked at all the villagers.

For a long while.

The villagers suddenly felt that the entire atmosphere, in this moment of silence, had gone completely wrong!

Then they heard him say in a very calm tone:

"What time is it now? Can we start?"

105. (6/10) Broke as a joke! Yao Shu lost her confidence (requesting monthly votes and self-subscriptions)

Teacher Yao Shu was stunned.

Everyone's eyes widened as well.

Ning Chen received no response.

Because everyone was stunned.

After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone and checked it himself.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

"If we're doing product promotion, where would be more suitable?" Ning Chen looked at Yao Shu beside him.

Yao Shu was still stunned.

Hearing Ning Chen ask her, her mind went into chaos.

Mainly because it was moving too fast; her brain couldn't make such a sharp turn.

"Ah—" Yao Shu thought for a moment, "How about just in the school classroom?"

"That works," Ning Chen said.

They waited a little while longer.

Silence still surrounded them.

Ning Chen said, "Will you lead the way, or shall I find it myself?"

Yao Shu: "..."

Of course!

It was her who would lead the way!

But, was it really over right here, right now?!
