Sun Xiaoping takes her husband and son back to her maiden home today.
As soon as they arrive, Sun Xiaoping notices the tomatoes on the tea table and asks with some confusion, âMom, why did you put the tomatoes here today? Arenât you going to use them for cooking?â
Grandma Sun laughs and says, âI saved three for cooking, and the rest are to be eaten as fruit. Try them, theyâre especially delicious.â
With that, she turns to her listless grandson, holding a tomato, saying, âCome, Xiao Bao, this tomato is really delicious, want to try?â
Sun Xiaoping looks at her spiritless son and says with concern, âEver since the child caught a cold recently, he has been listless and not interested in eating. In just a few days, his whole body has become so thin that his eyes sunk in. We took him to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said that his cold was cured, but he needs to adjust and recover his spirit on his own.â
Grandma Sun feels heartache upon hearing this and immediately hugs her grandson and says, âMy poor, good grandson.â
Thinking about something, she immediately tells her daughter, âGo, cut the tomato and bring it over for Xiao Bao to eat.â
Sun Xiaoping says, âMom, Xiao Bao doesnât even eat his favorite strawberries anymore, let alone, he doesnât like tomatoes.â
Grandma Sun says impatiently, âI told you to cut it, just cut it, donât talk so much.â
Sun Xiaoping,
With no choice, she gets up and cuts a tomato.
Soon, a surprised voice comes from the kitchen, âMom, this tomato is too delicious.â
Grandma Sun says, âIf youâve cut it, then bring it out for my baby grandson to eat.â
Sun Xiaoping brings the cut tomato over, and then Xiao Bao wrinkles his nose and says, âIt smells so good.â
Grandma Sunâs eyes light up, and she says happily, âDoes it smell good? Xiao Bao, try it and see if itâs good or not, okay?â
Xiao Bao nods and says, âOkay!â
After that, he takes a bite of the tomato, his eyes suddenly light up, and he says while eating, âGrandma, this tomato is so delicious!â
âHehe, if itâs delicious, then eat more!â Grandma Sun laughs and says.
Sun Xiaopingâs husband raises his eyebrows in curiosity and asks, âIs a tomato really that delicious?â
âItâs delicious, Dad!â Xiao Bao says. âDad, you try it too!â
With a curious heart, he tries a piece, and then canât help but praise, âItâs really delicious. Mom, where did you buy these tomatoes? When we go back, Iâll go buy some too.â
Mainly because his son is finally willing to eat. In recent days, the whole family has been worried about getting him to eat.
Grandma Sun laughs and says, âItâs from the Xiao Family Village Green Fresh Vegetable Shop just outside the neighborhood. I bought all of todayâs vegetables from there. I bought duck meat, cabbage, eggplant, and a grass carp!â
Sun Xiaoping says, âOkay, Mom, Iâll go cook.â
When Sun Xiaoping saw the fresh vegetables and fish that her mother brought back, she didnât pay much attention.
But when these dishes were cooked, even with the use of a range hood, the whole house was filled with fragrance.
Her husband canât help but say, âIt smells so good. And sniffing this aroma makes me feel especially comfortable, and my mind is much clearer.â
Xiao Bao wrinkles his nose, his eyes filled with anticipation, and he says, âGrandma, it smells so good. I want to eat.â
Grandma Sun says happily, âGood, wait for your mom to finish cooking, and then Xiao Bao can eat well.â
When the dishes were served, Sun Xiaoping takes off her apron and asks in surprise, âMom, where did you buy the vegetables? Theyâre especially fragrant when cooked. Especially this duck meat, itâs tender and very fragrant. Iâve never tasted such delicious duck meat before.â
âItâs all bought from that store.â Grandma Sun looks at her grandson eating with relish and says happily, âItâs just that the stuff from that store is more expensive than the market, and a lot more expensive. Today is only their second day of opening.â
Sun Xiaopingâs husband laughs and says, âMom, people sell things at a high price for a reason. Look at these vegetables, they smell good and they must taste good too.â
Grandma Sun laughs and says, âI know Xiao Pingâs cooking skills, theyâre just average. Now these dishes smell so good and taste good too, it must be because of the good ingredients.â
Sun Xiaoping watches her son enjoying the meal and says with a laugh, âXiao Bao hasnât eaten so deliciously for a long time. Husband, letâs go to that store when we go back and buy some vegetables too!â
Xiao Bao immediately says, âI want to eat tomatoes and duck meat too!â
âOkay, whatever you want to eat, weâll buy it!â Sun Xiaoping laughs and says.
Sun Xiaopingâs family of three stayed at her motherâs house until three or four in the afternoon.
Sun Xiaoping says, âMom, Xiao Bao has to go to school tomorrow, so weâre leaving. Weâll come back next week!â
Grandma Sun tidies up and says, âIâm going to the store with you!â
When they arrive at the store, they find it completely empty!
Grandma Sun asks, âWhere are the vegetables in your store?â
Xiao Chunhua laughs and says, âAll sold out. We sold out at around 10 oâclock this morning.â
Grandma Sun is slightly surprised and asks, âSo early today?â
Xiao Chunhua nods and says, âYes, there were a lot of returning customers today. They brought more customers, and suddenly many people came to buy. We sold out early today!â
Grandma Sun asks anxiously, âWill new vegetables arrive this afternoon?â
Xiao Chunhua shakes her head and says, âAunt, they wonât be here until tomorrow morning!â
Grandma Sun is slightly disappointed and says, âNot until tomorrow morning!â
She then turns to her daughter and says, âIâll take the vegetables from home back and buy more in the morning to send them to you!â
Sun Xiaoping refuses and says, âMom, donât bother!â
Grandma Sun gets a little angry and says, âWhat do you mean donât bother? Those vegetables are for my good grandson. The child has been sick for a while, and itâs not easy for him to have an appetite. Of course, he needs to be well nourished! You wait here, and Iâll go get them!â
Within three days of opening, all the goods in the store sell out in less than an hour on the third day!
In just a few days, the name of Xiao Family Village Green Fresh Vegetable Shop spread throughout the county town!
Two stores, 6,000 pounds of goods, are simply not enough to sell!
Many customers who couldnât buy even complained to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce that they sold too little, and many people couldnât buy!
Facing the inquiries from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, Xiao Chunhua and others,
Theyâve seen complaints about underweight and cheating consumers, but never thought theyâd be complained about for selling too well!
Strange things happen every year, but there are especially many this year!
