The Wealthy Eldest Sister Rules Supreme

Chapter 30: New Task

Translator: 549690339

[Ding, congratulations to the host for triggering a random task. Filial piety is a traditional virtue. If the host helps this person successfully complete the birthday banquet, you can get 18 diligence points and a random reward.]

Since there was still a large amount of diligence to be repaid to the system, and now there was a task that could earn diligence, and the amount was not low, coupled with the delivered random reward…

That’s why Zhuang Qingning didn’t hesitate and said, “Actually, this tofu was really reserved for others, it can’t be simply given away. But, since you need it early tomorrow morning, there’s another way…”

“What about early tomorrow morning, I will bring the tofu to the town earlier and deliver it to your home, how about it?”

The man, upon hearing this, was overjoyed: “That would be great.”

“But it seems that you don’t know where I live, delivering it would probably require some extra effort, and waste time. Isn’t it better for you to come to town early and wait here for me to sell the tofu?”

“That works too.” Zhuang Qingning nodded: “Then 1 will come to town early at three quarter past the morning. Will that be okay?”

“That would be okay, thank you for your hard work, miss.” The other party was very grateful, and bowed to Zhuang Qingning again: “My surname is Zhou, the name is Zhou Xueming, 1 can let my wife come if I can’t come early in the morning.”

” Alright, then 1 will use your name at that time.” Zhuang Qingning agreed.

“This is the downpayment, please take it, miss.” The other party extended his hand to pass over some money.

It was twelve coins.

“This is too much. Ten catties of tofu only costs eight coins.” Zhuang Qingning hurriedly said, “And if you pre-order tofu from me, you only need to pay half the price, just four coins will do.”

“Since I just shouted the price at twelve coins per catty, then 1 should give twelve coins, especially since I am troubling you to run this errand early in the morning, this price should be given.”

Zhou Xueming said, “Since miss can reserve tofu for others at this time without charging a high price, you must be an honest and faithful person. I believe that you will not take the money without giving the tofu.”

“Since you said so, then 1 will shamelessly take it first, and 1 will definitely be here at three quarter past the morning tomorrow.”

Seeing the other party behaving like this, Zhuang Qingning accepted the money and carefully memorized this name in her heart.

“Thank you, miss.” Zhou Xueming bid farewell and left.

Zhuang Qingning sat back on the small bench and gave Mrs. Liu another fried dough twist.

“Ning girl.” Mrs. Liu said while eating the dough twist, “The more I look at it, you really are a great potential businesswoman. You do business in a sincere and energetic manner. Your business will definitely get better and bigger in the future.”

“Then 1 will take your good words.” Zhuang Qingning laughed with her eyes curved. The shallow dimples on her cheeks made her look playful and cute.

“This is not just flattery.” Mrs. Liu raised her eyebrows and said, “I’m telling the truth. 1 have been selling fried chop rice cakes here for years, and I have seen many street stall vendors.”

“The honest ones often look dull and can’t talk, and their business is not lively. The more lively ones are usually not reliable, their business methods are too cunning. You are the only one who is lively and honest when doing business. With you like this, you will definitely do well in the business.”

“You flatter me like this, and it really makes me shy.” Lu said with a smile.

“No, this is not flattery; I’m telling the truth, the most reliable truth.” Mrs. Liu also laughed.

Someone came to ask for fried chop rice cake, and Mrs. Liu got busy to attend to the customer.

Waited for a while.

To put it more precisely, it was quite a while, and it was nearly noon.

The bright sunny day made this spring day feel dry and hot. After staying on the street for a while, some sweat beads appeared on my back.

But Bai San still hadn’t come to buy tofu.

There have been many people buying tofu, but because they wanted too much, Zhuang Qingning politely refused and asked them to come early the next day.

“Do you think he will not come to buy tofu?” Zhuang Qingsui twisted her eyebrows and sighed.

“He should…”” Zhuang Qingning looked up at the sky and smiled, “In any case, we agreed yesterday. If he doesn’t come past noon, we won’t keep the tofu. You don’t need to worry about wasting the tofu.”

Zhuang Qingsui found it reasonable, so she nodded obediently and continued to wait patiently.

After about a cup of tea’s time, Bai San finally arrived.

He was panting, his forehead was full of sweat, and he looked like he had been running all the way.

“I’m sorry.” As soon as Bai San spoke, he apologized: “1 was too busy in the morning, and couldn’t get away, and when I looked at it, it was near noon, so 1 rushed here. Is there any tofu left?”

Filled with remorse, he added, “It doesn’t matter if there’s no tofu left. If necessary, I’ll come back tomorrow.”

He would definitely come early tomorrow, so as not to delay others and also to buy tofu, avoiding the nagging of those people every day.

In the past two days, those people had been muttering in his ears all the time, it had driven him crazy.

“There’s still some, it was specially reserved for you.” Zhuang Qingning smiled slightly, lifted the cloche to reveal the white and tender tofu inside: “The eight catties of tofu you want is exactly right.”

A person came just now wanting three catties of tofu. He couldn’t buy that much and had to regretfully only buy two catties to take home. Now this tofu was exactly eight catties, not a liang more, not a liang less.

Seeing that there was still tofu, Bai San’s eyes were full of surprise, he was so excited that he almost clapped his hands: “That’s great, it’s just in time. If it was any later, 1 really wouldn’t be able to buy it.”

“It’s not just in time.” Mrs. Liu couldn’t help but scoffed: “This was specially reserved by Ning girl for you. The tofu has been sold out half an hour ago, and because of this, Ning girl has had to apologize to many people who couldn’t buy tofu.”

Bai San was taken aback at first, then he looked even more remorseful, repeatedly saying: “I’m really sorry, I was really busy today and couldn’t get away, making you wait for so long.”

“Since 1 promised you, I have to wait for you to come and buy tofu. It’s only right.” Zhuang Qingning laughed: “It’s not early now, if you don’t go back soon, I’m afraid it will delay lunch. Go back quickly.”

“Alright.” Bai San really needed to rush back, so he didn’t say much. He just took the tofu and hurried back.

However, taking only two steps, he returned and said to Zhuang Qingning who was packing up the cloche and bamboo basket: “You will continue to sell this tofu in the future, won’t you?”

“I will sell it for a long time.” Zhuang Qingning grinned: “To tell you the truth, my parents passed away early, and I and my sister have to rely on each other. We don’t have any land in our house. We have to rely on grinding tofu and selling tofu for our lives. We will definitely sell tofu for a long time in the future..”
