Qingshui Town.

After the Qingming Festival, when Liu returned to the fruit and vegetable stall in Wa City to reopen, she was no longer alone.

Beside her were Yang Ruohe, three girls, and Kang Xiaozi.

When guests came to buy groceries, Mrs. Liu would bargain with them and finally weigh and settle the accounts, while the three girls were busy collecting the money.

Yang Ruohe and Kang Xiaozi watched and learned from all this.

After taking him with him and teaching him step by step for two or three days, the two siblings were able to help Mr. Liu sell vegetables.

Kang Xiaozi wears a mask on his mouth. He can speak and help Liu attract customers.

Mrs. Liu weighed and collected the money, while Yang Ruohe had the strength and was busy picking up and delivering vegetables. The three mothers divided the labor and cooperated in an orderly manner.

When she was free, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but praise Yang Ruohe and her brother: "It's great that you two can help me. When business was busy a while ago, some bastards bullied me and I couldn't do it alone.

, under the guise of eating vegetables, they stole a lot of vegetables and fruits from me and ran away, causing me to lose a lot of money!"

When Kang Xiaozi heard this, he said angrily: "Mom, don't be upset. If someone does that again later, my son will help you fight them off!"

Although Yang Ruohe beside her could not speak without her tongue, her ears were not deaf.

When she heard this, she clenched her fists and shook them, shouting loudly. The meaning was very clear, she would hit someone with her fists if someone stole it again.

Mrs. Liu couldn't help but smile happily when she saw the two children in front of her who shared the same hatred as her.

He took two fruits and stuffed them into their siblings' hands: "Here, eat a piece of fruit to moisten your throat."

The two siblings didn't wash it, they just wiped it on their clothes and started chewing it with relish.

Mrs. Liu also looked at it with a smile, feeling relieved but also feeling a little regretful.

It would be great if He'er could talk and Kang Xiaozi didn't have harelips!

What a pity for these two children!

However, when I think about it, even a disabled person can still run, jump, eat, drink, and take care of himself.

If it is really the kind of useless person who lies in bed half-heartedly, it will be even more painful. Therefore, it is better to be like this now. Decades of life will pass in the blink of an eye.

After eating the fruit, Kang Xiaozi became anxious, so Mrs. Liu pointed him to a place outside Wa City and asked him to go and solve it himself.

Yang Ruohe was sent back to the rental house by Mrs. Liu to get something, leaving Mrs. Liu alone in the stall.

After a while, a group of people came one after another and stopped in front of Liu's stall. Many of them were familiar faces, with a few unfamiliar faces mixed in.

While Mrs. Liu was greeting regular customers, she would occasionally glance at one of the middle-aged men with a wretched appearance out of the corner of her eye.

The man was carrying a basket with a handkerchief draped over it, and he had one hand free to pick and choose.

He picked the peppers seriously and spread them all over the stall, but his eyes flickered and he looked absent-minded, something was obviously wrong.

With a clever flip of his wrist, the hand retracted.

Most people would not notice that he had stolen anything, and the veil covering the basket was not even touched.

But Mrs. Liu discovered it.

Because there are two peppers missing from the stall.

"take it out!"

Ms. Liu stopped what she was doing and roared angrily at the middle-aged man.

"What to take?" The middle-aged man was confused.

Mrs. Liu pointed to his basket: "Whatever you take from my stall is what you take!"

The middle-aged man took advantage of his stature to be taller than Mrs. Liu and sneered: "Are you sick, you stupid woman? I am a cook for a wealthy family and I am not short of money. If you have any sense, shut up!"

Ms. Liu's face turned red with anger, "You stole two chili peppers from my stall, take them out for me!"

She picked up the scale beam at hand and picked up the handkerchief he had covered on the basket. It turned out to be...empty!

Ms. Liu was startled for a moment, what is going on?

When the middle-aged man saw this, he pretended to be furious, pointed at Ms. Liu's nose and yelled: "You stupid woman with shallow eyes, dare to frame me as a thief? If you don't give me an explanation now, I'm not done with you!"

He raised his hand and knocked over the neatly piled cabbages in the sieve on the stall in front of him, and stepped on them with his feet.

The people around him were so shocked that they backed away, pointed at the finger, and whispered.

When the other vegetable vendors next to Liu saw this, they all sneered with joy at the misfortune. The saying that fellow travelers are enemies was indeed true.

"Don't step on it, don't step on it!"

Ms. Liu exclaimed and walked out from behind the stall, grabbing the man's arms to try to stop her. However, the man slapped Ms. Liu on the face, pointed at her nose and shouted: "Pay for it, I won't pay you two taels of silver today."

I’m not done with you!”

I don't know if Mrs. Liu was stunned by this man, or was stunned by the two taels of silver. She was stunned on the spot and didn't react.

"You bastard, don't bully my mother!"

After being released, Kang Xiaozi came back with a whistle and shouted when he saw this.

The 12- or 13-year-old boy immediately rushed forward with fists clenched, jumped up from behind, and punched the man in the back of the head.

The man was annoyed. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Kang Xiaozi in front of him. He slapped Kang Xiaozi twice in the face like "Pah, Pah"!

Kang Xiaozi's mask was knocked to the ground. The man's eyes widened and he looked at Kang Xiaozi like a monster, while the people around him also gasped.

"monster……"

"Ugly..."

All kinds of unpleasant words came to Kang Xiaozi's ears from all directions.

Although Kang Xiaozi has been looked at with such horror in the village since he was a child, due to the power of Lao Yang's family in the village, no one has ever dared to say these words in front of him.

The boy was still a child after all, and his mind immediately went blank. He stared blankly at the ferocious man in front of him, not knowing what to do.

Mrs. Liu came back from the shock, and when she saw this, she let out an angry scream.

"If you dare to hit my son, I will fight with you!"

She showed off the vigor she had shown when she fought with people in Changping Village and bumped into the man.

The man just threw Kang Xiaozi away, and before he could catch Liu's move, Liu hit him hard in the stomach.

Two chili peppers fell from his pocket.

This caused the crowd around to sigh again. Was it really him who stole it?

Isn't it too arrogant for a man to steal vegetables from a woman and then beat her instead of admitting it?

The man bent over in pain, became so angry that he grabbed Ms. Liu's hair, and slapped Ms. Liu in the face. It looked like he was going to beat Ms. Liu to death.

Ms. Liu struggled to grab the man's face with one hand. Due to her height advantage, her fingers could only reach the man's mouth and nose. If the man twisted his neck, she would not be able to grab his face.

But Mrs. Liu was not stupid, so she went down with her other hand to steal the peach.

With a sharp squeeze, the man screamed in pain and pushed Mrs. Liu away.

Mrs. Liu gasped proudly and hurriedly helped Kang Xiaozi up who had fallen to the ground. The two women stared angrily and horrified at the man with his legs in front of them, his face deformed in pain.

At this time, Yang Ruohe came over with a basket of potatoes on his shoulders.

From afar, she saw a circle of people gathered in front of her stall. She thought there was something lively to see and squeezed into the crowd with brute force. Seeing the situation in front of her, Yang Ruohe became annoyed and let out an angry roar.
