Chapter 70
There were four or five small 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 children gnawing on watermelon, and they were even praising the watermelon Wan Ping'an grew for being delicious.
Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing the urge to curse.
He Yuzhu didn't have Yi Zhonghai's good temper; he directly chased the children away from his doorway.
·· Begging for flowers ·
Jia Zhang even opened her mouth to curse.
Hearing Jia Zhang's cursing, Wan Ping'an smiled; the old hag was infuriated!
It was about three or four in the afternoon.
The watermelons that had been transported 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 closed his stall.
Those who didn't manage to buy a watermelon dispersed with regret, each agreeing to come earlier tomorrow and asking Wan Ping'an to definitely save one for them.
"Ping'an, selling only in the Sihe Academy is too limited by the space; why not set up another stall elsewhere?"
Sun Tiegang suggested.
"Alright, 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 Tiegang's eyes lit up.
One yuan a day, wouldn't that be thirty yuan a month?
Most people in the courtyard who had jobs didn't even earn thirty yuan a month.
Sun Tiegang went home excitedly, and after telling his family, Sun Tiegang's mother, who didn't work, decided to go out with her son to set up a stall to sell watermelons.
Wan Ping'an went home.
Counting money!
"One, 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, and even including the money for hiring Cai Quanwu, the net profit was still four hundred eighty or ninety; it was truly exorbitant!
"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 uniform, making it look a bit awkward.
"I need to change to a whole set of furniture!"
"The house is also aging, it must be renovated!"
Wan Ping'an decided.
He had made big money.
He couldn't wrong himself.
He wanted to live in the best house, use the best furniture, and sleep in the best bed.
"And marry a beautiful wife, live a shameless and happy little life, then life would be complete."
"Speaking of marrying a wife, why is there still no movement from the Jia family?"
"Is this blind date 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 only a rumor, with no solid proof.
At the same moment.
The front courtyard.
A woman in her forties or fifties came to the main entrance with a smile.
"Matchmaker Zhang, who are you here to introduce a partner to this time?"
The Third Aunt greeted with a smile.
"What are you in such a hurry for?"
"How old is your Jiecheng?"
"I guarantee you, when he reaches the age, I will definitely introduce him to one who is both beautiful, virtuous, and capable."
Matchmaker Zhang greeted the 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 blind date?"
The Third Aunt was very surprised.
"Nothing of the sort."
"I just mentioned it to him, we haven't had the blind date yet, someone must be spreading rumors, right?"
Matchmaker Zhang denied it.
"Matchmaker Zhang, why did you come so late?"
Jia Zhang 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 blind date."
"The one I'm introducing to your son is a very pretty young lady, I guarantee it will make your Dongxu satisfied!"
Matchmaker Zhang frowned slightly.
Then she smiled again.
"You've got the focus wrong."
"The most important thing is to be obedient; it doesn't matter if she's beautiful or not, as long as she can do chores."
Jia Zhang emphasized.
Jia Dongxu almost roared out that he wanted a beautiful one!
"She can do chores, definitely can do chores, I guarantee she can keep your house clean inside and out!"
Matchmaker Zhang patted her chest in 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 clear, sweet scent; it wasn't as intense 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 with every bite!"
Matchmaker Zhang's eyes lit up.
"But I have to say, there's a reason for the high price!"
