Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 45

ON THE VERGE

Ni Yang closed her stall really early today; it was just half past ten, and the noodles were already sold out.

In contrast, Zhu Yonghong not only had not sold half of her buns, but also had a lot of customers coming to question, "Why aren't today's buns as delicious as yesterday's?"

While Zhu Yonghong explained with a smile on her face, she was cursing in her heart, thinking, what a bunch of disgusting poor men, having the audacity to ask why the buns, sold six for a cent, were not as tasty as yesterday!

Are they brainless?

Can they eat pork with a cent? Don't they calculate how much pork costs per pound!

As for what kind of meat was in today's buns, perhaps only Zhu Yonghong knew best.

Many customers expressed that they would never eat Zhu Yonghong's buns again, and some even brought back buns for refunds.

Customers are not fools. When pork was replaced with something else, anyone could taste the difference.

Damn Ni Yang, the little bitch!

If not for Ni Yang stealing her business, she would not have stooped to such a level!

Now look at the mess! Not only did she not make up for the losses from yesterday, but she also lost more money. Her brother living expenses were still pending, and her mother definitely wouldn't let her off.

The more Zhu Yonghong thought about it, the angrier she became, so angry she wanted to tear Ni Yang apart.

She walked up to Ni Yang, lifted her chin high, biting her lip, and her eyes seemed poisoned. The fire of jealousy was about to burn Ni Yang to ashes, and she grinded her teeth and said, "Ni Yang! You are something else!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Yang turned around and looked at Zhu Yonghong, giving a faint smile, speak in a calm tone, "Hmm... I know I'm excellent, thanks for the compliment."

"You!" Zhu Yonghong seemed to have punched cotton, so exasperated she couldn't speak, pointing at Ni Yang, "You...you..."

Seeing this, Ni Yang's smile grew bigger. She took two steps forward, speaking with a sage-like tone, "Anger harms the liver, you're still so young, why hurt your own body? You're not young anymore, stop doing things that are not aboveboard. You should know, the gods are watching over your head."

As she said the last sentence, Ni Yang took another two steps forward, looking down at Zhu Yonghong with a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.

Her gaze at Zhu Yonghong was like looking at a clown.

"You...you..." Zhu Yonghong was like a mute eating coptis root, having trouble speaking.

She can't possibly admit to her jealousy of Ni Yang, that she had switched the pork in the buns with other meat, resulting in a failed sneaky move that benefitted Ni Yang!

Ni Yang couldn't be bothered to say anything more to Zhu Yonghong, she turned around, pushed her bike and walked away.

Zhu Yonghong looked at Ni Yang's back, her fists clenched tightly.

Wait and see, you bitch!

She would not swallow this bitter pill just like that!

Ni Yang took a round at the Vegetable Market, bought some ingredients, and then rode her bike home.

It rained last night. The way back to the village was muddy and tough to walk. Plus, Ni Yang had a cart full of stuff with her, making the journey even harder.
