Chapter 146

There were four or five little children, each holding a piece of watermelon, eating and drinking heartily at her doorway.

Gulp!

Deaf Old Lady swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

Isn't this just taunting her?

"Go, go, get out of here quickly, all of you, get lost."

Deaf Old Lady was very annoyed.

She chased the children away.

At Yi Zhonghai's doorway, there were also four or five little children, gnawing on watermelon and praising the watermelon Wan Ping'an grew as delicious.

Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing the urge to curse.

Sha Zhu didn't have Yi Zhonghai's good temper; he directly chased the children away from his doorway.

·· Begging for flowers ·

Jia Zhangshi was even more prone to cursing the moment she opened her mouth.

Hearing Jia Zhangshi's cursing, Wan Ping'an smiled; the old hag was angered!

It was about three or four in the afternoon.

The watermelons brought back were sold out.

"Everyone, it's very late today, let's stop here!"

"We'll continue selling tomorrow!"

"Thank you all!"

Wan Ping'an packed up his stall.

Those who didn't manage to buy a watermelon dispersed with regret, each promising to come earlier tomorrow and asking Wan Ping'an to be sure to save one for them.

"Ping'an, selling only in the Sihe Academy is too limited by the venue; why not set up another stall elsewhere?"

Sun Tiezhu suggested.

"Fine, you go find a suitable place, I'll leave it to you to be in charge, and I'll give you an extra yuan every day."

Wan Ping'an nodded.

He was not a stingy boss; if he ate meat, his subordinates would definitely be able to drink meat broth with meat in it.

Sun Tiezhu's eyes lit up.

One yuan a day, wouldn't that be thirty yuan a month?

Most people in the courtyard who worked couldn't earn thirty yuan a month.

Sun Tiezhu went home excitedly, and after telling his family, Sun Tiezhu's mother, who didn't work, decided to go out with her son to set up a stall and sell watermelons.

Wan Ping'an went home.

Counting money!

"One yuan, one yuan twenty cents... four hundred ninety-nine, five hundred... five hundred twenty-one yuan and seven cents!"

Wan Ping'an tallied his income!

In less than a day, he had sold over five hundred yuan worth.

His investment in farming wasn't much, even including the money to hire Cai Quanwu, the net profit was still four hundred eighty or ninety yuan; it was truly too profitable!

"The house should be replaced with new things!"

Wan Ping'an walked around the room.

A few days ago, he had added a few pieces of furniture, but they were all scattered, not matching, and the styles weren't unified, making it look a bit awkward.

"I need to change to a whole set of furniture!"

"The house has also aged, it must be renovated!"

Wan Ping'an made his decision.

He had made big money.

He couldn't wrong himself anymore.

He wanted to live in the best house, use the best furniture, and sleep in the best bed.

"If I marry a beautiful wife and live a happy, shameless little life, life will be complete."

"Speaking of marrying a wife, why is there still no movement from the Jia family?"

"Is the person they are matchmaking with this time Qin Huairu?"

Wan Ping'an thought of the Jia family.

People in the courtyard all rumored that Jia Dongxu was going to marry a wife, and a very beautiful one at that, but it was just a rumor, with no actual proof.

At the same moment.

Front courtyard.

A woman in her forties or fifties came to the main gate with a smile.

"Matchmaker Zhang, who are you introducing a partner to this time?"

Third Aunt greeted her with a smile.

"What are you in such a hurry for?"

"How old is your Jiecheng?"

"I promise you, when he reaches the right age, I will definitely introduce him to one who is both beautiful, virtuous, and capable."

Matchmaker Zhang greeted Third Aunt with a smile.

"I won't talk to you anymore, the Jia family must be waiting anxiously."

Matchmaker Zhang said, heading straight for the Jia family.

"Matchmaker Zhang, wait a moment, wasn't it said that the Jia family had already settled on a match?"

Third Aunt was very surprised.

"There's no such thing."

"I just mentioned it to him, we haven't even had the matchmaking meeting yet; is someone spreading rumors?"

Matchmaker Zhang denied it.

"Matchmaker Zhang, why did you come so late?"

Jia Zhangshi started complaining as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Hey, didn't I say I was delayed by something?"

"Don't worry, it won't delay your son's matchmaking."

"The one I'm introducing to your son is a very pretty young lady, I guarantee your Dongxu will be satisfied!"

Matchmaker Zhang frowned slightly.

Then she smiled again.

"You've got the focus wrong."

"The most important thing is that she's obedient; it doesn't matter if she's beautiful or not, as long as she can work."

Jia Zhangshi emphasized.

Jia Dongxu almost shouted out that he wanted a beautiful one!

"She can work, she can definitely work, I guarantee she can keep your house and outside clean and tidy!"

Matchmaker Zhang patted her chest to guarantee.

"Eh?"

"Why is there a faint fragrance?"

"It seems to be watermelon; I smelled it as soon as I entered your courtyard."

Matchmaker Zhang took a deep breath.

The watermelons Wan Ping'an grew, as soon as they were cut open, would emit a fresh and sweet scent; it wasn't as strong as braised pork, but it had great penetrating power!

"It's the Wan family in the back courtyard selling watermelons!"

Jia Dongxu replied.

"The Wan family?"

"Wan Ping'an?"

"No wonder! I've eaten the tomatoes he grew, and the pumpkins he grew; they are expensive as hell, but delicious as hell! My heart aches for the money every time I take a bite!"

Matchmaker Zhang's eyes lit up.

"But I have to say, there's a reason for the high price!"
