Chapter 28: Popular Business (2)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhou Boyan stood up. "It's done. I'll be outside. Try it out in the living room."

Yue Yan also stood up. Her vision darkened and she suddenly felt dizzy. Zhou Boyan hurriedly supported her.

"What's the matter?"

Yue Yan steadied herself. "It must be because I have been squatting for too long and have low blood sugar. I'll just eat something sweet when I get back."

Zhou Boyan was a little worried. "Will that help?"

"It can help." Actually, chocolate was not bad, but it could not be bought with their conditions.

Zhou Boyan closed the door worriedly and asked Yue Yan to listen to the doorbell.

"Yueyue, what are you guys doing?" Wen Hongyu wiped her hands clean and came out of the kitchen.

"Mom, come and listen to it with me. Dad is coming too!"

There was a semicircular thing attached to the door of the living room.

"Beep, beep, beep… Beep, beep, beep…" A clear sound came from the semicircular horn. The entire living room could hear it.

Yue Yan explained with a smile, "Brother Xiaofei invented this doorbell. He pressed the doorbell outside and you can hear the sound inside."

Yue Yan hurriedly ran out to open the door. "I heard you! Brother Xiaofei, go in. I'll press the doorbell outside."

Wen Hongyu and Yue Huaide were shocked. There was such a magical thing?

"I'll go outside. Listen in the house." Wen Hongyu jogged to the door.

"Mom, you're here too." Yue Yan made way for her mother.

The doorbell was installed at the door and connected to a battery.

"This is for batteries. Just change the batteries when the battery runs out." Yue Yan pressed the doorbell, and Yue Huaide and Zhou Boyan heard the sound.

"It's ringing! It's ringing!" Yue Huaide ran out to change seats with Wen Hongyu. The couple did not feel tired at all. They ran back and forth a few times and personally experienced the feeling of pressing the doorbell.

Zhou Boyan returned home after he made sure there was no problem.

Yue Huaide was full of praise for it. "This is good stuff. How much is this thing?"

Yue Yan was exasperated. "It's free. Brother Xiaofei made it. It's made with materials found at the waste station. There's no cost."

She also wanted to pay, but Zhou Boyan refused.

Wen Hongyu hesitated. "This… It's not good for us to accept Xiaofei's things, right?"

It was not good to accept things for free.

"I also said that, but Brother Xiaofei doesn't want it."

Yue Yan spread her hands. Wen Hongyu recalled what she had just seen.

She stared at Yue Yan. "Yueyue, what's wrong with your arm?"

Yue Huaide was a little slow. "Ah, what happened to Yueyue's arm?"

Yue Yan felt guilty. "I accidentally scratched it today."

Wen Hongyu was very sad. "You still want to lie to Mommy? The wound has already scabbed over. Could it have been scratched today?"

Yue Yan lowered her head. "I quarreled with someone. I won. I really bumped into something accidentally."

She and the male protagonist were irreconcilable!

Wen Hongyu patted her head. "Look, it's good if you tell me the truth. I won't scold you. I'm just worried that you'll be bullied."

Yue Yan pouted. "I'm just afraid that you guys will worry that I'll be bullied. I won't bite my tongue."

"Alright, as expected of my daughter. You won't suffer in silence. An eye for an eye, an eye for an eye. How's Dad's idiom?"

Wen Hongyu glared at her husband, who was causing trouble. "Go away. I'm educating my daughter. If you are so free, go sweep the floor."

Yue Huaide said loudly, "Yes, wife!"

Wen Hongyu's face turned red. "Aren't you ashamed?"

Yue Yan took the initiative. "Mom, when am I going to have a younger brother?"

Wen Hongyu flew into a rage out of humiliation. "You're as annoying as your father. Go do your homework!"

Yue Yan's plan succeeded. As expected, her mother did not catch the cause of her injury and lecture her.

Sunday was a big day. Yue Huaide's Malatang food truck was open for business!

The tricycle was divided into two parts. There was an iron shelf in front that was used to hold plastic plates. The plates and paper bowls for Malatang were specially custom-made by a factory.

The chopsticks and skewers were custom-made at the timber factory. Because they said that they would continue to cooperate in the future, the other party gave them a lot of discounts.

Behind the iron frame was a small stove with a large round pot placed on it. It was used to cook Malatang.

Beside the stove was a big round bucket filled with bingfen.

In order to make the bingfen cold, Yue Yan specially borrowed the Zhou Family's fridge to freeze some ice. Yue Huaide placed the ice in the bingfen bucket before he left.

The big round barrel was wrapped around a semi-circular iron frame. There were several cup-sized holes in it. They were used to hold small transparent cylinders made from plastic. Each of them had different side ingredients with small spoons inside.

There was also a bag of coal in the car. This was the entire snack cart.

The disposable bowls and chopsticks were hanging at the front of the car, while the box for the money was placed beside the stove.

Yue Yan went out with her father. She was afraid that her father would be nervous, so she specially cheered him on.

They went to the nearby square. There were many people on the weekend.

Yue Huaide set up the stall and Yue Yan helped to set out the dishes. Many people thought that this was a barbecue stall.

Knowing that it was something they had never eaten before, they pursed their lips together and left.

Yue Yan wrote the price on the signboard of the tricycle with chalk. Two skewers of vegetarian dishes for 10 cents, two skewers of meat dishes for 20 cents, and 50 cents for cooked noodles.

Yue Huaide was a little nervous. "Why aren't there any customers?"

Yue Yan smiled and said, "Because we haven't shown our characteristics yet. Dad, will you casually buy something you haven't eaten before by the roadside?"

Yue Huaide said, "Of course not."

"So it's time to light the fire, Dad."

Yue Huaide lit the stove and the silent bottom of the pot started to heat up. The fragrance gradually rose, but it was far from enough.

Finally, the fragrance came, and the people nearby stopped in their tracks.
