Chapter 173: Bonus Chapter

Regarding this, the cameraman on the side looked at the confused Xueyan and smiled mischievously.

The cameras in everyone’s hands had long captured all the little details of those stall owners stuffing vegetables without missing a single one.

One can imagine how lively it will be when the audience counts exactly how many fruits and vegetables were stuffed in total after the program broadcasts.

Although this can be considered an unprecedented sight in variety shows, it turns out vegetables can actually be bought and multiply.

And when Xueyan officially opened his stall, business became even more booming.

Xueyan aimed his first customer at an old grandpa. The other party had wandered around several stalls, but seemed to be constantly hesitating.

“Grandpa, do you want to buy potatoes?”

This old grandpa suddenly heard a tiny inquiring voice coming from behind and below him, and at first thought he was having auditory hallucinations.

As a result, as soon as he turned around, he discovered a short-legged “little potato” wearing a goose-yellow square bandana holding up a big potato and asking if he wanted to buy potatoes.

“Oh my, little friend, you know how to sell potatoes at such a young age? Where are the adults in your family?”

The old man smiled and reached out to hold this potato, unable to help but sigh with emotion at how this young doll could grow up to be so handsome.

“Hmm, because I have to sell potatoes to earn money to take home to Brother, otherwise Brother and I won’t have food to eat tonight.”

Xueyan simply stated a big truth based on the challenge rules set by the program team.

Unfortunately, such a big truth spoken in this specific situation naturally stunned the old man.

Even the cameraman was dumbfounded.

Baby, if you say these words, won’t everyone buy everything out!? Making it seem like our program team is abusing the guests!

“Director, I didn’t do such a wicked thing… When he grows up and remembers this, he can’t blame me, the director.”

Only Director Guo quite guiltily touched his nose.

The assistant on the side, however, subtly placed his gaze on Director Guo, thinking to himself that the ingredient package the last place guest could get actually did seem indistinguishable from having no food to eat.

“Is this brother of yours a blood-related brother, cub? What is the person doing right now?”

While taking the potato, the old man thought to himself that this brother was truly not a thing, actually not coming out to sell potatoes himself, but letting a little doll carry so many vegetables out to sell!

Look at these thin arms and legs, does it look like he can carry them?

Right, speaking of thin arms and legs, the old man only then noticed that the little guy was extremely thin, clearly a large circle thinner than the average fair and chubby cub! The shape of the bones could be seen on his arms.

This little face was only the size of a palm!

“Hmm, Brother is of course my blood-related brother, I like Brother the most, Brother is working at the village chief’s side.”

Xueyan always brooked no questioning of this point, and very seriously emphasized it himself.

Coupled with the dust on his cheek that he rubbed on at some unknown time during the market research just now, he completely became a “beautiful, strong, and miserable” cub reaping the hearts of middle-aged and elderly people.

“Cub, don’t worry, Grandpa must buy more potatoes from you today!”

For a time, the old man almost wished he could directly hug this sensible child home to raise.

Crucially, after buying, he discovered that this price was actually quite a bit cheaper than other stalls?

“Isn’t your price a bit low, sweetie? Can you make money like this?”

The old man weighing the weight in his hand repeatedly confirmed the price.

“Because I don’t have a fixed stall, and I don’t have a scale, so it’s only right to be a bit cheaper. I’ll give you a small handful of beans as a gift, Grandpa.”

Xueyan seriously explained a reason.

Grandma used to sell a few vegetables before. [Read on RanaTranslations🌸] Because she didn’t have a fixed stall, she would sell them relatively cheaper, so people would be willing to come.

After speaking, Xueyan bent down and pulled open a small red plastic bag, stood on tiptoe, and put a few more beans into the grandpa’s bag.

This made the old man an absolute mess of emotion.

How could he be so sensible at such a young age!? How exactly did the family raise him!?

“Goodbye Grandpa!”

“Eh, goodbye child! Just you wait, Grandpa will call the neighbors to come buy from you right away!”

In fact, the cameramen and staff were all shocked. They didn’t expect Xueyan, who was originally considered the most unsuitable for selling vegetables in the market, to actually become the shining Potato King in the vegetable market!

Due to the very reasonable pricing, coupled with the stall owner being overly adorable and frequently enthusiastically stuffing some fruit and vegetable gifts, even residents who had already bought enough vegetables couldn’t help their curiosity and came over to join the fun and take a look.

“Child, how are you selling these vegetables?”

“These potatoes are indeed fresh, and look good, did you grow them yourself in the field ah?”

“Do you know what dishes can be cooked with potatoes? Do you like eating stewed potatoes? How many potatoes do I need to buy to get the stall owner as a gift?”

It was just that as they asked, the questions became more and more off-topic. Aside from buying vegetables, they all smilingly wanted to tease Xueyan a bit.

Even a closer look would reveal that there were a few stall owners from just now among them, also sneaking away from their busy work to come contribute “performance” to the little guy.

At first, Xueyan would still answer the questions super obediently, but as he kept answering, he gradually discovered that he seemed to be being teased by the uncles and aunties for fun.

Like, he is still so small, he can’t even carry a hoe, how could he grow potatoes himself?

Moreover, he himself wasn’t a gift. If he gave himself away, Dad, Brothers, and Sister wouldn’t have Xueyan anymore.

So, when he encountered strange questions again, Xueyan would uniformly purse his lips, not speak, and stare at the other party.

However, Xueyan quickly and troubledly discovered that once he very seriously tried to signal to the other party that they couldn’t ask these strange questions, these uncles and aunties actually seemed even happier.

“Alright alright, we won’t ask anymore, okay? Uncles and aunties will just buy some vegetables to take home and cook.”

But although everyone laughed, they also cheerfully cooperated with the cub to obediently buy vegetables, not casually teasing the little guy for fun anymore.

“Oh my, he actually got angry! [Read on RanaTranslations🌸] Asked a few more questions and he put on a bun face and got angry haha! Why is he so stingy?”

It was just that there was a young man making faces and imitating an angry expression. He clearly saw the cameramen and others on the side and realized this didn’t seem like ordinary vegetable selling, and might even be on TV, so he would frequently run over to grab a few shots of screen time, only jeering without buying vegetables.

Making the cameramen frown slightly. Several times they moved the camera away wanting to get a better shot, they were blocked by the other party.

“What are you doing, young man? Isn’t this the second child of the Wang family from West Bridge? Since you are unwilling to go to school and study, and your dad asked you to come sell vegetables, exactly how many vegetables have you sold since early this morning?”

But before the staff could step forward to persuade the other party to leave, an auntie with a great sense of security had already grabbed this young man’s arm.

“Aunt, Aunt Liu? Who said I’m not studying, I just took a year off from school, that’s all…”

The young man who a second ago was smiling mischievously clearly also knew the other party, and instantly became guilty.

“Idling away every day not doing proper business, look at yourself, even selling vegetables you can’t compare to a child so young! The moment I get back I’ll tell your dad and see if you don’t get a beating!”

The auntie bursting with a sense of justice actually didn’t give the other party any chance to quibble.

“Who said I’m idling away, I just came out to use the bathroom, that’s all… Ouch! What thing pecked me!?”

The other party shook his hand and broke free, wanting to run away. As a result, before he ran a few steps, he let out an “Ouch” cry.

“Whose family’s chicken ran out and isn’t locked up!?”

He exasperatedly held his butt while running and turned his head to glance back.

He only saw an impressive-looking big rooster holding its head high and puffing out its chest looking at him, a face full of “not convinced, come fight”.

And behind the big rooster, stood the equally serious-faced Pei Shuo.

The cameraman shouldering the camera on the side couldn’t help laughing so much his hands shook a bit.

Who understands, why did this aura subtly overlap?!

Moreover, Pei Shuo clearly still wasn’t accustomed to wearing a square bandana on his head, and at some unknown time had untied the square bandana and tied it onto this big rooster’s head.

Making the big rooster wearing the tied bandana actually have a few more bits of handsome demeanor.

“Pei Shuo! And big rooster?”

And Xueyan only then discovered he accidentally encountered his little friend, and instantly widened his eyes in pleasant surprise and stood up.

Pei Shuo, called to a stop by Xueyan, only then picked up that rope from the ground, and in passing tightly and solidly re-tied the muzzle for the big rooster.

“Just happened to pass by, accidentally didn’t hold the rope.”

Pei Shuo, who was walking the big rooster, explained very calmly.

The accompanying cameraman on the side had a subtle expression. Really just happened to pass by?

Just you wait, as soon as the program broadcasts we’ll broadcast you kid’s route map together with Xueyan’s route map.

“Then Pei Shuo, has your big rooster not been sold yet?”

It was just that this time Xueyan, looking at the righteous big rooster in front of him, actually didn’t seem as afraid as before, feeling Pei Shuo’s big rooster was actually quite cool.

“Hmm, haven’t found a suitable buyer temporarily.”

Actually, he hadn’t even gone to sell it at all. Pei Shuo glanced at this chicken and suddenly felt that raising a chicken seemed to also be not bad, at least like Mo Dian, it could bite bad people.

“Come here.”

Pei Shuo waved his hand.

As a result, this big rooster actually really tilted its head as if thinking, and a few seconds later ran over pattering.

“It actually can understand you speaking! Your relationship seems to already be very good.”

Xueyan looking at these scenes, suddenly felt that Pei Shuo seemed to have already established a deep friendship with this big rooster along the way.

Pei Shuo: ?

“Why would I have a very good relationship with a big rooster?”

Pei Shuo forcefully stayed silent for a long time, before slightly gloomily asking in return.

“Otherwise, why would you give the bandana to the big rooster to wear? Weren’t you afraid it would be sunburned?”

Xueyan very seriously pointed out the reason.

The cameraman once again aimed the lens at Pei Shuo.

Pei Shuo: ??

He actually seemed to have never thought that way.

“But perhaps it’s a bit hungry.”

Xueyan looked at this big rooster, suddenly remembering something, rummaged out a piece of cabbage from his backpack, broke it into pieces, and placed it in front of the big rooster.

Pei Shuo hesitated for a moment, and tried to take off the big rooster’s muzzle. [Read on RanaTranslations🌸] Sure enough, this time the big rooster ate very happily.

Xueyan actually didn’t hide away, but instead for the first time observed the big rooster eating vegetables from such a close distance.

As it ate, this big rooster even picked up a vegetable leaf in its beak, trying to hand it to Xueyan.

“I, I can’t eat raw ones, if I eat raw ones I’ll get diarrhea.”

Xueyan explained blankly.

Seeing that Xueyan wouldn’t eat, the big rooster stared confusingly at Xueyan for a few seconds, then somewhat regretfully ate it itself.

The No. 5 little friend’s “vegetable” was eating the No. 4 little friend’s “vegetable”, this seemed to be another extremely wonderful scene in the history of variety shows.

“Who was making trouble just now?”

And Uncle Zhang Qingdong, who received the news, actually rolled up his sleeves and personally came over carrying a kitchen knife.

He heard there was a little punk disrupting the filming of whatever program team that was!?

If this were broadcasted, how much would it affect the village’s image? It would make tourists from out of town think we like to bully people here.

“Uh, Uncle Dong, the matter has already been resolved. Aunt Liu helped, and then in passing was pecked away by this chicken.”

Scaring the surrounding people into a daze, and a few seconds later they successively smiled and pointed to this big rooster.

Zhang Qingdong’s family has been selling vegetables in the vegetable market for over a decade, and the stall is among the batch with the best locations. Plus, he has a straightforward and enthusiastic personality. Whenever there’s an issue among the fellow villagers, everyone actually likes to seek out Uncle Dong to be the judge.

“Wow, there’s even a little cub selling a chicken? The difficulty isn’t small, is this your chicken?”

Uncle Dong took a closer look, and saw another handsome little cub, and realized this was probably the other little friend from that program team.

Pei Shuo looked at the other party and nodded, feeling this Uncle Dong’s arm muscles were not inferior to Grandpa’s bodyguards, looking very majestic.

“Oh my, this chicken of yours is actually quite rare, the feather color is so beautiful, and it’s quite smart, it’s a bit of a pity to sell it as a meat chicken.”

Uncle Dong touched his chin, actually helping to think very seriously.

“How about after you guys finish selling potatoes you go to the east exit to stroll around? There are more tourists and little children over there, maybe someone will take a fancy to this beautiful big rooster.”

This clue provided by Uncle Zhang Qingdong was undoubtedly of full value.

“Then let’s go to the east exit to stroll around after we finish selling the potatoes okay, Pei Shuo?”

Xueyan asked very seriously.

“Hmm.”

Pei Shuo nodded.

In reality, Xueyan’s vegetables were actually almost sold out. Coupled with that auntie helping just now, the little guy simply gave all the remaining potatoes and free vegetables to the kind-hearted auntie in one breath.

Pei Shuo on the side also helped with packing, appearing quite infinitely strong, and the speed of the two people cooperating became even faster.

“Oh my, oh my, where does Auntie need this many vegetables haha, you two little friends sell vegetables with peace of mind!”

The auntie actually smiled from ear to ear.

In the end, the auntie simply hugged Xueyan and pulled Pei Shuo along to take a few photos together, then picked up a bag of vegetables and left. Yet before that, she forcefully threw money into Xueyan’s little backpack.

“Auntie—you gave too much!”

Xueyan holding the money, looking at the number 50 on it, realized the auntie had clearly given a lot a lot more. He wanted to call the auntie to a stop but the other party had already rapidly disappeared.

He must let Brother return the money to Auntie.

“Then does this mean Xueyan is the first little friend to finish selling his vegetables?”

Pei Shuo actually rapidly looked at the staff on the side with great career ambition.
