Chapter 376: Baby?

Translator: Lonelytree
When Third Uncle Xiao was looking for his shop, Zheng Haiyang called Xiao Lingyu. Incidentally, the owner of the shop next to Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables had an emergency at home, and he wanted to transfer the rental immediately.
The place had good customer traffic, but the transfer fee was relatively high. It required at least 30,000 RMB and the monthly rent was 2,000 RMB.
Xiao Lingyu did not have any objections to this.
The shop she opened was originally owned by Zheng Haiyang’s family. When she rented that shop, the other party happened to have the lease term expired. Zheng Haiyang directly took back the shop and rented it to Xiao Lingyu at a low price.
However, the shop next door was different.
Their shop lease contract had not expired. Zheng Haiyang could take back the shop, but he had to pay ten times the amount of compensation. Zheng Haiyang did not mind doing this.
But Xiao Lingyu minded. She didn’t want to owe Zheng Haiyang a favor. It would make her feel uncomfortable.
‘When Xiao Lingyu discussed this matter with Third Uncle Xiao, Third Uncle and Third Aunt Xiao felt that the location was good, the flow of customers was larger, and the environment was also good.
But the transfer fee and rent were too expensive.
Xiao Lingyu said, “That shop is right next to mine. We can help each other in the future. The transfer fee and rent are a little expensive, but the number of customers is not bad. Most importantly, that area is close to Happiness Neighborhood. Happiness Neighborhood has a lot of rich tenants.
“In the future, you can sell the tofu directly in my shop. You can serve tofu pudding and soy milk in yours.”
After hearing this, Third Uncle and Third Aunt Xiao thought for a while and said, “Okay, then we’ll listen to you.”
Thus, Third Uncle and Third Aunt Xiao rented that shop.
It was named Taoyuan Village Fresh Soy Products.
They moved in the tools to prepare the soybeans immediately. After a little preparation, the shop opened.
They didn’t dare to prepare too much on the first day, so they only worked with ten catties of soybeans. Two catties for soy milk, two catties for tofu pudding, and the last six catties were for tofu.
Normally, one catty of soybeans would make four to fix catties of tofu. However, Xiao Lingyu’s soybeans could make six to seven catties of tofu with one catty. So they made 38 catties of tofu from six catties of soybeans.
The tofu was sold at Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables, while the soy milk and tofu pudding were sold at Taoyuan Village Fresh Soy Products.
On an opening day, Third Uncle and Third Aunt Xiao were a little nervous and uneasy.
Their soybean milk and tofu were sold at such a high price. Would there be any customers?
On an opening day, Xiao Lingyu, Gong Tianhao, Grandma Xiao, and Grandpa Xiao, as well as Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt Xiao, who were originally helping in the county, came to celebrate.
Xiao Lingshuo also came to help.
Early in the morning, many people gathered at the entrance of Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables.
The customers had been waiting to fight for their daily purchases.
But today..
“Wow, what is this smell? It smells so good.”
“Yeah, what is this? I don’t think this smell used to be here.”
At this time, someone wrinkled his nose and said, “Why does it smell like soybean milk?”
“Yes, it does smell like soy milk.”
“But it’s purer and more fragrance.”
Someone with a sensitive nose followed the smell and saw Taoyuan Village Fresh Soy Products next to Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables.
“Hey, when did this shop open here?”
Soon, everyone noticed the shop.
“The fragrance seems to be coming from this shop.”
“No, but what soy milk is this? The shop hasn’t even opened, but the fragrance is already coming out.”
“It looks like another shop from Taoyuan Village. Like their vegetables, the fragrance will travel for miles when they’re cooked.” The person pointed at the name of the shop.
“Do you think the two shops are related?” Someone guessed.
“I think so. They’re both from Taoyuan Village.”
Just as everyone was discussing, Fourth Uncle Xiao arrived in a small van.
“It’s here. The vegetables are here.”
Asmall car followed behind the small truck.
After Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt Xiao got out of the truck, they helped Grandma and Grandpa Xiao get out of the truck.
Fourth Aunt Xiao went to open the doors while Fourth Uncle Xiao went to unload the goods.
The people immediately swarmed over, wanting to snatch the vegetables. Even though the vegetables were expensive, the customers had the urge to snatch them.
Fourth Uncle Xiao was already used to this scene.
After Fourth Aunt Xiao opened the store, she directly moved these vegetables into the store.
These customers also followed her into the store.
Gong Tianhao drove the car. His eyes slightly squinted as he looked at the crowd surrounding the entrance of the store.
He had been in Taoyuan Village for so long, but this was the first time he had come to Xiao Lingyu’s store so early in the morning.
He didn’t expect the business to be good.
“Yu’Er, the business in your shop is so good!”Gong Tianhao said with slight surprise.
Xiao Lingyu, who was sitting in the back row, responded softly, “Yes.”
Gong Tianhao had a preliminary understanding of the people in this county. He knew that most people here were poor, so he didn’t expect so many customers.
Although Gong Tianhao didn’t know much about the vegetable market, he had an all-purpose assistant.
After knowing that Xiao Lingyu had opened a vegetable shop, he sent someone to investigate the market situation of the vegetable market in the capital.
Take cabbage as an example.
The cabbage here was 30 cents per catty, while the cabbage in the capital was 70 cents per catty. However, the cabbage in Xiao Lingyu’s house was 2 RMB per catty.
The difference was obvious.
‘As someone who often stayed in the Xiao family, he naturally knew how delicious the Xiao family’s vegetables were.
If her vegetables were shipped to the capital, people would fight for them even if they were priced at 20 RMB per catty.
After all, there were too many people in the capital who did not lack money.
Gong Tianhao suddenly said, “Yu’Er, have you considered opening a shop in the capital?”
Xiao Lingyu was slightly stunned, then she nodded and said, “I have.”
Gong Tianhao stared at Xiao Lingyu in surprise.
Xiao Lingyu explained, “Of course, I’ve thought about it. Ever since the first day I opened my shop, I’ve wanted to open my shop all over the country, including the capital city!”
Gong Tianhao, “…”
He did not expect his Yu’Er to have such great ambitions. He also didn’t think she was being delusional. Her vegetables were so special. She would find a market anywhere. However, that would mean that she’d be targeted too. It would place her in all kinds of danger.
Of course, those dangers wouldn’t appear now with Gong Tianhao by her side. Gong Tianhao would support her unconditionally. He would help her open a shop on the moon if she wanted to.
Gong Tianhao tapped the steering wheel with one hand and said, “Then when did you plan to open your shop in the capital?”
If she wanted to, he would have a Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables set up at the capital that day itself. However, he knew that Xiao Lingyu did not want to rely on him. She wanted to rely on her own ability to open her shop in the capital.
All he could do was wait and clear the obstacles for Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu might be in the farming business, but her vegetables were special. There was a huge profit to be gained from them. In the capital, this meant that people would take advantage of her. Gong Tianhao would make sure that she would never be bullied.
Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “This matter will have to wait until I expand my business and give birth to my child.”
As Xiao Lingyu said this, her hand could not help but touch her stomach.
‘When Xiao Lingyu mentioned the child, Gong Tianhao’s sharp gaze revealed a gentleness. Then, he nodded lightly and said, “Okay!”
Indeed, the child was the most important thing now. Actually, that was wrong. Both the mother and son were important.
The child’s expected delivery date was October.
It was now July and there were still more than two months left.
He would stay by Xiao Lingyu’s side and take care of her for the next two months.

While Xiao Lingyu was talking to Gong Tianhao, Third Aunt Xiao’s shop opened.
Xiao Lingyu said, “Let’s go.”
Some of the old customers recognized Xiao Lingyu as soon as she got out of the car.
“Boss Xiao, it’s really you. Are you coming to the shop?” Someone asked with a smile.
‘As she said this, she stole a glance at Gong Tianhao, who was supporting her and continued, “This must be your lover. He’s so handsome. He’s the most handsome man I’ve ever seen.”
‘When she looked at Gong Tianhao, her eyes sparkled.
The main reason was that this man was really too handsome.
His handsomeness was not only because of his good looks but also because of his masculine aura.
‘When Gong Tianhao heard this person say that he was Xiao Lingyu’s lover, he was secretly delighted.
This joy was directly displayed on his face, and a smile appeared on his cold face.
On the contrary, Xiao Lingyu’s expression froze. Then, she forced a smile and said, “Auntie, this is my friend.”
“Friend?” This grocery shopping auntie frowned and then said with a look of understanding, “Oh, it’s your boyfriend. Don’t be shy. We understand.”
Xiao Lingyu,
‘Auntie, what do you understand? I’m really just friends with this man.’
Gong Tianhao was very satisfied.
He immediately followed up, “Auntie, Hello, I’m Boss Xiao’s boyfriend. My baby is very shy, so she doesn’t want to admit my identity as her boyfriend in publi
‘Baby?’ Xiao Lingyu had goosebumps all over the floor. ‘When did I agree to be called that?
The auntie nodded. “Young man, we understand. You two are a beautiful couple. You are very understanding of Boss Xiao.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” We really aren’t a couple. Why does the whole world think that we’re a couple?

Other people came over to praise Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao, calling them a heaven-made match and so on. Xiao Lingyu was dumbfounded.
The aunties chatted with them happily. To Xiao Lingyu’s surprise, Gong Tianhao actually got along with these aunties.
If the media reporters found out, it would probably become a hot topic for a few days and nights.
These aunties were very happy to chat with such a handsome young man.
Xiao Lingyu couldn’t even get a word in edgewise.
Suddenly, an auntie perked up her nose and said, “Eh, it smells so good.”
Then, she remembered something.
It was just that the charm of a handsome man was too great, so the aunties temporarily forgot about this fragrance.
But as soon as the shop door opened, Third Uncle and Third Aunt Xiao brought out the soy milk and tofu pudding, The fragrance that wafted out became stronger. Everyone in the vicinity could smell it.
“Ah, it’s really fragrant. This is the fragrance of soybean milk, right?”
“Yes, I can also smell the fragrance of tofu pudding.”
At this time, it was the same auntie who asked, “Boss Xiao, is the shop next door yours too?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “It’s my third uncle’s shop. Auntie, would you like to have some soy products? For the first three days of opening, there’s a 50% discount.”
“Ah? 50 percent discount for soy milk?” An auntie said in surprise, “Does that mean it’s 25 cents per cup?” The market price was 50 cents per cup, so the auntie naturally thought that was the price at Taoyuan Village Fresh Soy Products too.
Xiao Lingyu said, “Auntie, the price of the soy milk here is 2 RMB per cup. After the 50% discount, it will be 1 RMB per cup.”
“2. RMB per cup? That’s too expensive,” An auntie said.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Aunties, you can decide whether it’s too expensive after you taste it. You can smell the fragrance, right? Do you think my third uncle is selling ordinary soy milk?”
“You’re right.” An auntie smiled. “Alright. I’ll buy a cup of soy milk to taste to give Boss Xiao face.”
After all, 1 RMB was not that much.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Thank you, auntie. I guarantee that you won’t be disappointed.” Xiao Lingyu paused before adding, “Also, my third uncle’s soy products are limited. They produce only a small amount each day.”
‘As expected of a united family, they didn’t forget to promote each other.
However, not long after, there was no need for promotion anymore. Many people took out their money and rushed to buy the soy products..
