Being bombarded with the series of questions left Pan Meijia speechless. In the end, she could only bite her lip and stare at Chen Anwen. After a while, Xiao Yiqing asked, "Then, how much does the ingredients cost for a bowl?"
When Chen Anwen wanted to ask for three yuan per bowl, Wang Muxiao interrupted her and said, "Five yuan a bowl."
Hearing this price, even the members of the Lu family were taken aback. They looked at her questioningly. But before they could stop her, Xiao Yiqing took out the money and put it on the table, saying, "Give me a bowl."
Seeing the money, Wang Muxiao’s eyes lit up, and before Lu Cheng could stop her, she took the money and kept it. After that, she happily went to the kitchen and took out the bowl and spoon. She scooped four cabbage dumplings, four vegetable and egg dumplings, and two meat dumplings. She also generously gave her a small piece of ginseng to prove she wasn’t lying about the ingredients.
"Come on, eat it while it’s hot. I put a piece of ginseng in there. You can chew it to nourish your body." Wang Muxiao said with a smile, and passed the bowl over to Xiao Yiqing.
Xiao Yiqing looked at the thin slice of ginseng floating inside the bowl, gritted her teeth and said, "Then I should thank my sister-in-law for taking care of me."
As a person who has never been to school, Wang Muxiao doesn’t know what sarcasm is. So, she took Xiao Yiqing’s words seriously and said with a generous smile while waving her hand, "Aiya, it’s nothing. As long as you abide by my family rules, I believe we can live together happily."
Xiao Yiqing almost vomited three liters of blood when she heard what she said casually. Finally, she turned and went to her room to eat. She was sure that if she stayed with this person any longer, she would die of high blood pressure!
Seeing that her friend had already gone to eat, Pan Meijia glanced at the dumpling soup and clutched her stomach. She has a bad stomach, and whenever she skips meals, she will have a stomach ache. Now, her stomach is really hurting. If she doesn’t eat again, she may pass out from the pain.
After weighing the pros and cons, she finally asked, "That, sister-in-law, can I have half a bowl? Just give me five dumplings."
Wang Muxiao nodded and said, "Sure, three yuan."
Pan Meijia was taken aback, and asked, "Why is it three yuan? Isn’t half a bowl worth 2 yuan and 50 cents?"
Wang Muxiao glanced at her and asked, "Don’t you know that the more you buy, the cheaper the price will be? Since you buy half a bowl, the price of the ingredients is naturally higher than one bowl."
Seeing her put the basin down, Li Chenmo asked, "Jueyu, why do you use this basin? My father uses it to wash his feet." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
