Li Guixiang and the other villagers thought that Lan Xiaoyu would be the only one coming in person to buy vegetables.

But to their surprise, more people started knocking on their doors, asking to buy vegetables from the Xiao Family.

This left the villagers in Xiao Family Village completely bewildered.

The vegetables left in their fields were barely enough for their own consumption, let alone having surplus to sell.

They could sell a few vegetables to a few people once or twice, but not to this many people.

“Sister, I am really desperate. My children refuse to eat meals without Xiao Family’s vegetables. They even throw tantrums and roll on the ground. I barely got them to promise that I would bring some vegetables home today,” said a woman in her sixties or seventies. “Since I’ve come all the way here, please sell me some.”

Chen Qiulan was also a bit troubled.

This wasn’t the first time someone had come to her door to buy vegetables.

And this old woman was not here for the first time either.

She had come a few days ago, and Chen Qiulan, seeing the woman’s concern for her children, let her pick some vegetables from the field.

But who would have thought that she would come again and repeat the same story?

With all the vegetables being picked these days, there wasn’t much left in the field.

She needed to save some for her own children as well.

Before the next crop could be harvested, she couldn’t risk running out of vegetables for her children.

Chen Qiulan frowned slightly and said reluctantly, “Elder sister, I don’t mind selling the vegetables to you, but I hardly have any left in my field. I need to save some for my children.”

However, the old lady became upset. She argued, “Sister, you’ve grown so many vegetables; giving me a few more isn’t a big deal. If I pick some, my child will cry and make a fuss if there are no Xiao Family’s vegetables at mealtime. I… I have no other choice, sister.”

As she spoke, her eyes reddened.

Chen Qiulan,

What else could she do? Under the old woman’s persistent pleading,

soft-hearted Chen Qiulan had no choice but to let her pick some vegetables to take home.

But the old woman was ruthless.

Perhaps she knew that once she picked this time, she might not be allowed to pick them again, so she picked a huge amount, making Chen Qiulan’s face turn red with anger.

“Elder sister, you can’t pick like this. If you keep picking, there will be nothing left in my field in a few days!” Chen Qiulan immediately tried to stop her.

But the old lady still wasn’t satisfied. She said, “Sister, since you let me pick, I will pick more to save myself the trouble of coming again in a few days.” Chen Qiulan, She’s really infuriating.
