Novel Full Chapter 1175: The opening of the mall
Yu Dong was stunned when she saw Qiao Nan appear from the carriage, she thought that the mer was joking when he asked her to tell him about the opening of her mall as she always sent him vegetables every day. After all, Qiao Nan was one of the few customers who had paid extra to get every day fresh delivery from her, why would he wait for her mall to be opened?
” Master Qiao, you are here? Did you not receive the vegetables this morning?” Was it possible that the mammy in charge of delivering the vegetables forgot to make the deliveries because of the sudden rush earlier this morning?
Qiao Nan rolled his eyes and then said, ” Do you think that the amount of vegetables that we agreed upon a month ago be enough? They are nowhere near! I need at least five no eight catties of vegetables to feed my family now!”
Ever since his wife started to come to his house to eat three meals a day, the other mer concubines also started to come after his wife.
At first, he thought that those mer concubines were coming to his courtyard to keep an eye on their wife but turns out that they only cared about what was on the table as for Madam Mo—— hehe, she was not even their last priority when they were sitting on the dining table.
And with the mer concubines coming to his courtyard it did not take long for their children to follow suit. Nowadays his courtyard was visited by almost every member of the Mo family, even his father-in-law who disliked him because he couldn’t give birth to a child despite being the official husband who came to look for him.
Those visitations only became worse when the town stopped selling fresh vegetables! Now Qiao Nan hardly ever got a bite of his own cooking, and for the first time in his life, he felt jealous and frustrated with his skills. If he knew that his cooking skills would turn those vegetables into delicacies, he would have never cooked!
Nowadays he was going crazy! One time he thought of buying the rotten vegetables that were being sold in the market and cooking them but when Qiao Nan thought about how he would have to eat those rotten vegetables as well, he was unwilling to do so and could only drop the idea.
Yu Dong seemed to have understood his predicament and was speechless. She actually sent three catties of vegetables to Qiao Nan and yet he was telling her that it was not enough? Were his family members monsters with appetites as big as the ocean?
Though she was speechless, Yu Dong did not want to offend the potential VIP customer of her mall which was why she smiled professionally and then said, “It is great that you are here Master Qiao, we also have high-quality meat and some new products that you will certainly like. Of course, you will have free samples just like the last time.”
No sooner did she finish speaking a sweet scent that smelled like rice wafted off from the mall’s second floor. Though the scent was similar to rice, its scent was much sweeter and tantalizing.
Qiao Nan gulped in anticipation. Now he was in a hurry to buy the products that were being sold in Yu Dong’s mall. Though he knew that there were many unscrupulous shopkeepers who would sell good things in the beginning and then revert to their own unscrupulous habits, he knew that Yu Dong was not the same. She would not do anything such as selling things that were not of good quality.
” Oh thank goodness we did not come late,” a new voice chimed in causing everyone to turn around and look at the new carriage that came to a halt in front of their mall. Yu Dong recognized the mer who stepped out of the carriage, it was none other than Song Zhi behind him was a woman who was most probably Madam Geng, his wife and the heir of the Geng family.
” You must be Madam Yu,” Madam Geng greeted Yu Dong with a smile on her face. ” It’s nice to see you, Madam Yu. I have heard a lot about you from my husband, I am glad that I can finally meet you.”
She was thinking of heading to the vegetable shop with Song Zhi before Yu Dong closed her shop but Song Zhi told her that Yu Dong had started renovating her shop and that her vegetable shop was just a test to see whether or not she could sell those vegetables at the price that she had set, through Madam Geng thought it was a pity that Yu Dong had closed her shop she knew that it was because was she was going to open something even better in exchange.
More importantly, her husband was smart enough to sign up for the fresh delivery every day or else Madam Geng would have long rushed to Yu Dong’s house and asked her to hand her catties of vegetables before she turned crazy.
Yu Dong smiled as she bowed in greeting.
” It’s good to see you too, Madam Geng,” Yu Dong greeted Geng Gengxin who handed her a small wooden box and said, ” This is something that I and my husband brought for you. It’s nothing expensive and you do not need to worry about it.”
Yu Dong did not refuse the goodwill of the Geng family, anyway, this was what Madam Geng brought in respect for the opening of her mall, it would be too embarrassing if she were to refuse someone’s goodwill like this.
” Then I will thank you, Madam Geng,” stated Yu Dong with a smile. Find more to read at M-V-L
At that moment, two more carriages came to a stop in front of her mall. Old Master Shi stepped down from his carriage while he looked behind him and snapped, ” I told you to quit following me! Do you think that I will not buy for your family if you don’t follow me?”
—————-
Elder Miss Shi looked at her father who was getting angry at her and did not dare to flare up. In the past, she would have lost her temper with her father long ago but when she thought about how her father had catered to her and her family even though they never treated him well, she chose to stay quiet.
She smiled at her father flatteringly and then said, ” Didn’t I come here because I knew that you would have trouble bringing all those gifts to Miss Yu? I am afraid that you will twist your waist or your wrist that is why I came to help you.”
” Bah! I believe your ghost. I bet you are here because you want to buy vegetables for your family as well. I am telling you that I am not cooking for you all,” Old Master Shi waved his hand as he walked towards the mall, behind him Xiao Nian followed with a bunch of things that he had brought for Yu Dong and her family.
The second Old Master Shi came to a stop in front of Yu Dong, the scowl on his face turned into a smile as he patted Yu Dong on the shoulder and then said, ” Dong Dong, you are here? I am sorry that I came late. I left long ago but the truth is that this idiot kept stopping me and I had no choice but to listen to her. Who asked her to be my daughter ?”
Elder Miss Shi: “…” Father, tell me once again who is your daughter?
Yu Dong smiled at Old Master Shi as she shook her head and then said, ” We haven’t even opened yet. You are not late, Old Master Shi.”
” If that is the case then I am glad,” Old Master Shi heaved a sigh of relief as he turned to look at his daughter and then said to her, ” What are you waiting for Congratulations, Miss Yu. Are you waiting for the auspicious time as well?”
Elder Miss Shi’s lips twitched. She was sure that she wasn’t the biological daughter of Old Master Shi, because if she was then why was she being scolded like this? Though Elder Miss Shi had a lot to complain about, she still nodded her head and then politely looked at Yu Dong before saying, ” Congratulations, Miss Yu.”
” Thank you, Miss Shi,” Yu Dong nodded as she accepted the things that Elder Miss Shi handed to her. Behind them, another set of carriages came to a stop and the second the door of the carriages was opened, Old Master Shi flew into a fit of rage once more.
” You.. what are you doing here?” He questioned the two old mers who stepped out of the carriages.
Old Master Fu and Old Master Ji looked at Old Master Shi before Old Master Fu said, ” I say, Old Shi, you are really poisonous ah! You kept praising the stock of this girl here but did not even ask us to follow you when you were coming here.”
” That was because I did not want you to come!”
