443 Grinding Teeth

Xue Sifu stopped talking about this topic, but asked the two precious children something else instead, “Have you both eaten?”

“We ate well.” Both Jiang Yue and Xue Yan said.

“Then go and sit under the shade of the tree in front,” Xue Sifu said. “It’s cooler there, don’t sit under this stall anymore, it’s too hot here. The others are eating ice, so they can still feel cool under the shade. You two are still so young, you can’t eat cold things all the time, your body will not be able to bear it. Go, go and sit under the shade of the tree. If someone comes to order ice again, I will say that there is only so much ice that can be made at home, and there is no way to order more, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t fight back, there were too many people in the booth, and there was no room for them. They rather sit under the shade of a tree, so Xue Yan held Jiang Yue’s hand and walked away.

This shaded place was fifty steps away from their stall.

There were no trees on this street, but there was one past the wall. It was a medium-sized tree with a lot of branches protruding from the wall, casting a mottled shade.

This place was a little bit further down the main street. Everyone set up stalls on both sides of the main street, but there was no one here.

As soon as Xue Yan came under the shade of the tree, he opened a small mat and put it on the ground for Jiang Yue to sit on.

Immediately afterwards, he opened the other folded mat and placed it on the ground, and then he sat down next to her.

The main street was paved with bricks, and the bricks absorbed the blazing heat.

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue’s expressions were quite calm even though the temperature was high. They were not at all like others, who constantly used their hands to fan themselves and were profusely sweating.

When the two were sitting under the shade of a tree, they suddenly saw the young salesman who had set up a stall next to theirs long ago, carrying a load of goods. He probably heard that they had started selling ice when he was setting up a stall elsewhere. He must have been curious and wanted to have a look.

The young man saw that his booth was taken by the lady, and realized that the lady’s business was doing well. The young man immediately became angry and wanted to go towards the lady, but after taking two steps, he turned around and went to the other side of the street.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t need to guess what would happen next, they both knew that this young man was going to pay the rent money first. If the lady also pays the rent money every day, he can get up early tomorrow to occupy her space. He planned on paying extra to book the space for more days than her.

However, after a while, the young man came back angrily with his things. He obviously knew that the lady had already paid for the stall for two months, and it would be useless for him to try and fight for it.

He was exposed to the scorching sun, and the young man became even more angry, his teeth were showing and he snarled at whoever that came too close to him.

He wanted to argue with the lady, but he was still too timid to really make trouble, for fear that he would not be able to come to this town to set up a stall in the future. Therefore, the young man just gave the lady a hard look, and then angrily stomped away.

“He probably won’t come back again.”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan knew it well, but they didn’t care.

After a while, Wufu came back in a carriage with the popsicles made at home. Their expressions changed a little and they stood up.

“Wufu.” Both of them shouted in a moderate voice.
