Chapter 74
Xu Shijie was not far behind, saying how naive Wu Jiafan's poems are.How neat is my own couplet.

After a burst of foam flew across the mouth, the lotus was stunned and shouted, "Stop!" The two stopped attacking each other.

"So, none of you won first place!" He Hua affirmed.

Wu Jiafan looked left and right, and finally nodded. Xu Shijie accelerated the speed of his fan.

He Hua looked at the expressions of the two of them, and understood everything, but she really didn't expect that the two of them defeated so many talented people so bloodily.The talented scholars in Los Angeles County may not have the face to go out for a while.She secretly smiled, seeing that the two of them still didn't dare to look at her, she said, "It doesn't matter if you didn't win the first place, anyway, it's much better than I thought. I don't have time to chat with you, I have to do business."

Xu Shijie had already smelled the scent, but he didn't have time to ask the lotus, so he asked at this time: "It smells so good, what is it delicious?"

"This is Mala Tang, we won't treat you to it for nothing, you have to pay for it!" Wu Jiafan walked to the booth with the lotus, and said to Xu Shijie without looking back.

Without the help of lotus, Wu Shan and Mrs. Zhang were very busy. Now that she came back, Mrs. Zhang put the vegetables in the colander and urged, "Hurry up, lotus, there are too many people, we two can't handle it, hurry up!" help."

"Oh!" Lotus rolled up her sleeves and joined them.

Wu Jiafan also wanted to help.I can't do anything else, but I'm good at counting money.

Xu Shijie came over and saw that their family was busy, so after thinking about it, he began to pick vegetables like others.The whole street can smell the aroma of their house, and seeing other people eating it seems to be really delicious.

There are only two tables for people to sit here, and the tables are already full, and some people who don't have a seat are squatting aside to eat happily.

Xu Shijie handed the selected dishes to He Hua, who was busy serving the dishes, how could he have time to pay attention to him, and said casually, "Go to Xiao Bao's and count them all!"

"You count it for me!" Xu Shijie continued to stretch out his hand and handed out the betel.He came here on purpose to strike up a conversation, why did he go to that annoying Wu Jiafan.

He Hua didn't have time to chat with him, and shouted: "Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao, hurry up and order his dishes."

"Oh!" Wu Jiafan agreed, and came over to take Xu Shijie's betel vigorously, "Hehua is very busy, I can just come."

Xu Shijie rolled his eyes towards the sky, really haunted.

Wu Jiafan ordered his dishes and said to him, "Fifteen Wen!".

Xu Shijie was taken aback, "Huh? So cheap?" He felt unbelievable. Every time he went out to eat, it was not always more than one tael, but it only cost fifteen yuan here.

"It's cheap and you don't get paid for it!" What a prodigal, Wu Jiafan secretly despised him.

"Isn't it just a few copper coins, bumpkin!" Xu Shijie took out money and paid for it.Take the betel and go to the lotus again.

Wu Jiafan hurriedly followed, leaned close to Hehua and said loudly: "Hehua, for those who want to jump in line, how can we put it outside?"

"Who wants to jump in line?" He Hua raised her head in the midst of her busy schedule.

Xu Shijie quickly walked back.He said to Wu Jiafan: "Little man!"

Wu Jiafan stuck out his tongue at him and made a face.

Lotus pushed him and said helplessly: "Okay, people have already queued up. Go to work."

"Hey!" Wu Jiafan smirked, "You know!".

Lotus nodded his head, "I don't understand your thoughts. Work first."

Finally it was Xu Shijie's turn. He leaned over to talk to Lotus, but after a while Mala Tang was ready, the people behind started urging him, and he had to leave with a bowl.Muttering in his mouth, "What's the rush, wait a little longer and you will die!"

It's really sad, there is no table for something to eat, and he doesn't want to leave, so he has to imitate others squatting aside to eat, angrily picked up a piece of potato and took a bite, eh, chewed it quickly a few times and swallowed it, eh, eh, eh, Why is it so delicious.I don't feel disgusted anymore, imitating the others, I ate the contents of the bowl upside down, and drank all the soup.

Holding an empty bowl, he ran to Lotus, "How do you make your Malatang? It's delicious!"

"I can't tell you this, right Lotus!" Wu Jiafan tiptoed to take his bowl.He shook the empty bowl in his hand, "The next guest is coming, please make way!"

Xu Shijie stomped his feet to get out of the way. He only intended to give up a little space, but he was pushed and pushed outside. When he realized it, he could no longer see Lotus and the others, and their booth was surrounded by everyone.

He danced a few times, and greeted the lotus while dancing, but the lotus ignored him and only cared about his business.He had no choice but to leave temporarily. Anyway, he knew that she was setting up a stall here, so he would have more opportunities to come to her in the future.

But what Wu Jiafan thought in his heart was that Xu Shijie knew that the lotus was here, and made up his mind that he must be locked up in the future.

The whole family is working here, happy in their hearts, and working very hard. When all the vegetables they brought are sold out, today's business has come to an end.After packing up the stall, the family left the city in an ox cart and headed for Wujia Village.

Leaving the hustle and bustle of the town and heading for the quiet countryside, the ox carts are rumbling.Maintain a unified rhythm.It forms a harmonious symphony with the insects in the field.The lotus closed her eyes peacefully.

Mrs. Zhang asked suddenly: "By the way, Xiaobao, I heard that the person who wins the No. 1 poetry competition will get 100 taels of silver!"

He Hua quickly sat up when she heard this, and turned to ask Wu Jiafan, "Why didn't you tell me that No.1 can get 100 taels of silver?"

"Ah?" Wu Jiafan's expression was stupefied, his heart was cold and cold, who told mother that No.1 had so much money, "Then what, I forgot to tell you because Xu Shijie was messing around. , I wanted to tell you right away."

"Tch, why don't you tell me, you won't get No.1 anyway, so people are thinking about what's good." The lotus fell down again, and closed its eyes to rest.

"Lotus!" Wu Jiafan fell beside her, seeing how tired she looked on her face, he couldn't stop it, his heart ached terribly, if he got a hundred silver, Lotus would be much less tired.

I don't know if Hehua heard his call, because she didn't answer, and she didn't open her eyes again. It wasn't until she got to the door of the house that Wu Jiafan called out.

The first thing I did when I got home was to go to her room and start keeping accounts, counting how much I earned today.Basically, you can earn three to four taels by selling Malatang every day.Another good start.

Wu Jiafan came in with a bowl of water, and He Hua was settling accounts, he interrupted her, "He Hua, you came directly to the room when you came back, without drinking any water. Here!"

To be honest, Lotus was indeed thirsty, so she took the water he handed her and drank it. The cool tea quenched her thirst.Feeling much more comfortable, she put down the bowl and asked him, "By the way, what kind of poem did you write today? How could you beat so many talented scholars?" If she really believed that his poems were so powerful, she didn't have much confidence.
