BXBX NOVEL Chapter 418: 418 big customers are too easy to recognize.
“Your goods that you bought yesterday have arrived.” The worker who came off the donkey cart spoke courteously.
Liu Xiaohong looked at Li Gui curiously. “Brother Li Gui, you bought so much. How much did it cost?”
“Uh…” The worker said, “Miss, I think you got it wrong. It wasn’t this young fellow who bought the goods but Miss Su.”
Liu Xiaohong felt awkward. “What? It wasn’t Brother Li Gui who bought it but Su Qingyue?”
“Yes.” The young worker nodded.
Liu Xiaohong twisted her handkerchief, feeling shy and embarrassed. “Brother
Li Gui, then what are you doing here?”
“Everyone came to watch the excitement, so I did too.” Li Gui responded. In fact, he had given a cent to a kid in the village to watch Su Qingyue. But it wasn’t appropriate for him to say this with everyone present.
“Heave ho!” laughed Wang Cuihua. “Just now, who was it who said that the Xiao family is poor and wouldn’t be able to afford two donkey carts full of goods in a lifetime? Well, Su Qingyue just made a move and bought up everything. I bet it’s your Liu family who wouldn’t be able to buy this much in a lifetime!” “Humph!” Liu Xiaohong ran off, her face a picture of embarrassment.
“Serves you right for looking down on people!” Wang Cuihua spat at her retreating figure. Excitedly, she grabbed Qingyue’s hand and said, “Qingyue, you’ve done pretty well, buying so much! No wonder you just now said you didn’t need to go to the village entrance to see the excitement. So it was you who bought all that stuff, and knew they would deliver it.”
“That’s right.” Qingyue nodded.
“Miss Su, we’ll deliver your purchases to your home now…” The young worker spoke politely.
Su Qingyue glanced at the worker, and then at the other one waiting on the second donkey cart. “You guys are from Sun’s Rice Shop, aren’t you?”
“Yes. I am Wang Qi,” He pointed to the other worker driving the cart, “He is Liu
Yuan. Both of us are workers hired by Shopkeeper Sun of Sun’s Rice Shop.” “I didn’t see you both when I went to Sun’s Rice Shop yesterday.”
“The shop was busy. We were out delivering goods.”
“You guys have such keen eyesight.” Su Qingyue praised, “I haven’t seen you before, but you recognized me.” She glanced at the villagers following her, “they told you, right?”
Wang Qi replied, “No. I just asked for your home address. Shopkeeper Sun told me that you had a very ‘distinctive’ look. He described it a bit and I recognized you right away. And see, I didn’t get it wrong.”
” Su Qingyue almost choked on her own blood, “Is my appearance that unique?”
Li Gui and the other spectating villagers all laughed.
Even Wang Cuihua had to stifle her laughter.
“Of everyone within ten miles, your face is certainly the ugliest and so the easiest to recognize…” Just as Wang Qi was about to comment, Liu Yuan quickly jumped off the donkey cart and yanked his sleeve, “Stop talking nonsense! Miss Su is our big customer, we cannot offend her.”
With that, he turned to Su Qingyue with an apologetic smile, “Sorry, Wang Qi is honest and straight, he never tells lies. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Swallowing the blood rising from her own throat, Su Qingyue barely managed out, “So he’s honest, and he only speaks the truth, right…”
“Yes…” only then did Liu Yuan realized that saying Su Qingyue was ugly was indeed not a good idea, “Oh, my apologies…my deepest apologies…”
“It’s fine!” Su Qingyue waved dismissively, “You guys are simply blind. I won’t bother arguing with you.”
“We are blind, not you. Big customer, please don’t mind. We should hurry to deliver the goods to your house.. Is there anyone home?”
