Transmigrated Into Substitute Bride Fu Lang

Chapter 36.3: 貓兒

Kitten

After a few days of preparation, Chen Xing had everything ready and was finally going to start selling jelly. But before he left the house, he looked at Gu Lang and the kitten in the yard. He was very confused at the moment.

 

That jelly not only can’t be kept for a long time, but also needs to be shaken with ice. If it can’t be sold out on the same day, it will be a big loss. Moreover, it’s still the first day Chen Xing is selling it, the price is also expensive, just think about it, you know, it will not sell very quickly. If he can’t come back in time, what will Gu Lang and Xue Qiu eat at lunch time?

 

Gu Lang who went to see and send them out as if he understood Chen Xing’s concerns, glanced at Chen Xing’s feet, at that silly and pestered kitten, indifferently said: “You can rest assured, I will heat up the food and I will also prepare food for it.”

 

Hearing Gu Lang’s assurance, Chen Xing raised his eyes and looked in his direction, watching him standing there with a shallow smile looking at himself, suddenly having a feeling of a wife sending her husband out the door.

 

Thinking of this, Chen Xing suddenly shivered, and hastily shook off his head to throw out this horrible imagination, looking at him panickedly: “Can you really? If not, I will hurry back as soon as possible.”

 

Gu Lang looked at him, smiled as he nodded his head, soothingly saying, “Don’t worry, I can do it.”

 

After confirming again and again that Gu Lang was really not trying to force himself, Chen Xing said goodbye to the kitten that pestered him, and left the Gu Mansion to head towards the stall.

 

Looking at the slowly closing door, Gu Lang’s eyes shifted to the kitten pawing at the door, wondering with interest if the cat would follow them out.

 

Unfortunately, after pawing at the door for a while, the cat seemed to realize that it couldn’t go out and stopped pawing at the door, turned around and was ready to go back. Then Gu Lang saw its body stiffen the moment it saw him, as well as its tail standing high.

 

Gu Lang, looking at its stiffness, suddenly snorted a laugh and turned towards the study room.

 

The sunlight was spreading on him, but he could still feel the cold and indifference that surrounded the owner of that back.

 

The kitten looked at the man who walked away, and made sure that he would not turn his head back, before his tail gently moved behind him, followed by a small ‘meow’, and followed him into the house.

 

After leaving the Gu Mansion, Chen Xing has been worried about whether his jelly today can be sold out successfully. If he can’t sell it, what should he do? Shouldn’t he think of some marketing strategy?

 

Qiu Jiu who was beside him and helped push the carriage did not have many problems in his mind, in his opinion if not sold, at most it is to take back to eat themselves, anyway, it would not be wasted.

 

However, looking at the side of the bitter Chen Xing, Qiu Jiu did not put his own words out, after all, he also knows that this jelly whether from the packaging or preservation, Chen Xing has spent a lot of effort, if not sold, Chen Xing will be very sad.

 

After a few more glances at the distressed Chen Xing, Qiu Jiu decided that if he really can’t sell it, he will use his own official’s salary; government salary to rent a few people to buy it, since his money has no place to spend, buying this thing is still enough.

 

Chen Xing didn’t know Qiu Jiu’s intention, he now even thought well about later whether to ask how many street peddler or shopkeeper’s partner who pretends to be a customer and lures people into buying; , he felt that his jelly although expensive, but at least here is a rare thing, as long as there is the first person who dares to eat crabs, not afraid of the later people do not come to buy.

 

After he had made his decision, Chen Xing’s heart also stabilized by a few points, and so on. To see the newly made booth with cloth wrapped shelves, his last point of worry in his heart also dissipated.

 

Chen Xing gave himself a boost, came to the front of the booth in front of the face of the guests who have come and gone, lifted the cloth on the shelf, revealing the inside like a long foot steamer shelf, but more than the usual steamer, the whole steamer on the surface there are a few special holes.

 

Chen Xing then lifted up two more layers, revealing the bottom layer and stuffed the specially sewn cotton into it, then he put it back to the first layer, poured the freshly purchased ice cubes on the top layer, before then put the jelly that he had brought in into the bamboo tube. He finally covered the last layer and put the remaining ones into the holes that could be seen.

 

“Little boss, what are you selling here? Why did you make it so troublesome?”

Some curious customers looked at Chen Xing. There were clothes and ice, just in order to keep those bamboo tubes of things, so they couldn’t help but be a little curious.

 

Chen Xing, however, looked at them and smiled, “This is the new food I want to buy. It’s called jelly.”

 

As he said this, he unveiled the top one, letting them see clearly the things inside.

 

The guests looked at the transparent dessert that was packed inside the green bamboo tube, showing colorful desserts, and suddenly exclaimed, “Little boss, this dessert of yours is so special ah!”

 

Chen Xing smiled, and considered accepting their compliments.

 

People who were curious, directly asked: ” Little boss, how do you sell this ah?”

 

Chen Xing looked at the person who asked, and directly said: “Fifty wen for one.”

 

As soon as his words left his mouth, there were a lot of gasps from the side, as if they felt that he was selling this thing for a price that was a bit too expensive. Although they were close to the Capital and were considered to be a wealthy region, so 50 wen was not out of their reach, but to buy a jar of this dessert was still not worth it, especially when it was sold on a small stall. Therefore, after these people asked, none of them bought it.

 

Chen Xing was also surprised, after dealing with the curious customers, the jelly price sign hung out, then he began to sell other things.

 

With the passage of time, other things are sold almost, but this jelly, people only ask, no one to buy. During that time, there was an old man who did not lack money and wanted to buy one, but in the end, he was pulled back by his old partner who disliked the expensive price of the jelly.

 

Seeing the situation, Chen Xing, from the beginning of calm into the later anxious. The cost of noodles here is not cheap, after all.

 

Just when Chen Xing is thinking about whether to yell a couple of words, Fu An is in a hurry to bring his slow friend to his booth, look at his unhurried friend, he still can not help but urge: “You guys be faster ah! I won’t have anything to eat later if it’s sold out!”
