Chapter 11: Making Money

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Alright, I’m thirsty.”

Su Wen was in a good mood after being served by little sister Su. Her calm and unperturbed appearance made people involuntarily believe her words a little more.

The girl with braids hesitated, then finally gritted her teeth, “Alright, I’ll buy two.”

“Little sister, take the money.”

“Alright!”

Little sister Su laughed like a fool after the first deal was done. She clutched the money tightly, unwilling to let go.

“Little sister, keep the money away. We’ll buy some meat after we sell everything.”

Su Wen could earn money, and she could also spend.

At this moment, she was already thinking about what to buy. Meat, canola oil, cloth, sugar, fine flour, and so on…

With this calculation, the money was simply not enough.

It seemed that she had to hurry up and make a cake.

That day, she would buy some ingredients and try to make them. If she succeeded, she would officially start selling them.

After the first buyer, more and more people came to watch. In addition, Su Wen was very eloquent, and while she praised things, she could also make the guests’ hearts burst with joy.

Each time, she would locate a target customer before promoting her shawls. In less than an hour, the shawls were basically sold out.

On the other hand, the cheap sleeve guards were bought by fewer people.

Little sister Su, who was by the side, was so jittery collecting the money that she was sweating profusely. She was afraid that she had made a mistake and kept counting on her fingers.

Su Wen had the intention to train her, so she didn’t say anything and just watched from the side, letting little sister Su do it herself.

In the beginning, she was flustered, but towards the end, she was able to put on a serious face and try to count money seriously.

When everyone was gone, Su Wen asked seriously, “How’s the count?”

Little sister Su, who had been about to take her shoes off and count with her toes, wiped the sweat off her face and cried anxiously.

“Big sister, I think I counted wrongly. The money doesn’t match the number of sales!”

What to do? If she got it wrong, Big sister would definitely be angry.

“Big sister, hit me! Hit me hard, please don’t sell me away. Little sister is ugly and worthless.”

Su Wen’s heart ached, and she pinched little sister Su’s cheek. “Big sister will never sell you, never.”

“But I collected the money wrongly.”

“Do you know how much you mistakenly collected?” Su Wen had been watching earlier! “We sold a total of 21 shawls. Other than a big sister who only bought one, the others bought them in pairs.”

However, in the middle of the busy period, a woman in her 50s took the opportunity to steal two of them.

By the time Su Wen realized it, she had already squeezed out and she wanted to give chase. But thinking about it, this was the black market. It wouldn’t be good for her if she made a big scene, so she could only bear with it.

“Sob, sob, sob!”

Little sister Su was bawling her eyes out as she wiped her tears away pitifully. “I… I still haven’t figured it out yet.”

She had just learned how to count and was learning addition and subtraction from Fourth sister. She had calculated wrongly in her nervousness that day.

Su Wen burst out laughing. “Alright, don’t cry. You miscalculated this time, but don’t miscalculate next time. When we get home, you’d better study hard.”

At such a young age, it was more important to cultivate good learning habits.

After this incident, little sister Su would definitely be full of enthusiasm for her studies.

“Really? Big sister, are you really not going to sell me away?”

Her best friend, Xiaohua, had been sold off by her sister-in-law because her family was poor and they couldn’t afford to eat.

From then on, little sister Su had no more friends in the village. Every day, she lived in fear, afraid that her big sister would sell her away.

“I’m not selling! You’re my little sister, how could I bear to sell you? And selling people is illegal.”

After hearing Su Wen’s promise, little sister Su became even more afraid.

It turned out that her big sister didn’t want to sell her because she was afraid that she would be committing a crime. No, she had to work harder in the future.
