Chapter 161 Ill-gotten gains do not last long
Sister Xiaolan sneered, "Don't even think about getting any sympathy from Shen Yan now. She's not someone who's easy to bully."
Guifang glanced at Wang Juan and said in a cold tone: "Since you are so greedy, you can only reap what you have sown now. However, don't forget that time waits for no one. You should find a way to raise money as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will only be more serious."
Wang Juan listened to their words, feeling angry and anxious.
She knew that she had to find a way to save her husband, but faced with such a predicament, she felt unprecedented helplessness and frustration.
Wang Lin has always been dissatisfied, watching her sister Shen Yan being bullied in the Wang family for a long time. After she learned that Boss Wang was arrested, she couldn't help but spread the news in the market, hoping to let more people know the true face of this guy. However, her actions soon attracted revenge from the Wang family.
Wang Tingting, the eldest daughter of the Wang family, was arrogant and conceited. When she heard Wang Lin talking about the Wang family's scandals in the market, she was furious. She brought a few followers to find Wang Lin and humiliated her in public.
"You little stinky girl, how dare you say bad things about our family in the market!" Wang Tingting pointed at Wang Lin arrogantly, and the followers beside her also laughed.
Although Wang Lin was young, she did not show weakness. She sneered and replied, "The true face of the Wang family has finally been revealed. Do you still have the nerve to humiliate me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Tingting became angry and slapped Wang Lin. Although Wang Lin had never experienced such a scene, she was not to be outdone and punched back. The two started a fierce fight in the market, and the surrounding citizens began to watch and talk about it.
"Good job! Beat her!" someone cheered.
"Look how vigorously these two little girls are fighting. They don't look like little girls at all!" People in the market were talking about it. Some were watching the fun, while others were cheering for Wang Lin.
Seeing that Wang Lin dared to fight back, Wang Tingting's followers stepped forward to stop her, but Wang Lin relied on her tenacious will and anger to withstand their siege.
They fought on and off, and soon their clothes were torn and their faces were covered with bruises.
In the end, Wang Tingting was dragged away by her followers and left the scene with a face full of shame and anger.
Wang Lin stood there panting, with the joy of victory and the exhaustion of defeat intertwined.
She knew that this fight was just the beginning and she had to continue fighting for a better future for her sister and herself.
Wang Lin decided not to limit herself to the market. The next morning, she carried a basket of tools and went to the dense forest on the mountain alone. She looked for wild vegetables, carefully dug wild garlic sprouts, and found several chestnut trees full of chestnuts. These gifts from nature meant hope for the future for them.
After returning home, Wang Lin carefully placed everything she had harvested in the yard. Shen Yan saw all these efforts and was filled with gratitude. She decided to help her sister and expand the family vegetable garden together. She picked up a shovel and helped Wang Lin open up new fields. Together, they planted wild vegetables and chestnut trees.
"Lin'er, these wild vegetables are great! We can plant more on this land, and then we can be self-sufficient." Shen Yan said with a pleased smile on her face.
Wang Lin also smiled and nodded: "Sister, these wild vegetables and chestnuts can help us earn more income in the future, so we don't have to rely so much on the market."
They worked together, sometimes talking and sometimes cooperating tacitly, and slowly cultivated and tidied up the new field. Shen Yan looked at Wang Lin's sweaty face, but was moved: "Lin'er, thank you, you have done so much for our family."
Wang Lin smiled and replied: "Sister, this is what I should do. We must work together to make our lives better."
As the sun gradually set, the sisters' new fields began to take shape.
Shen Yan looked at this new land, her heart filled with hope and confidence for the future.
Although they face many difficulties, they know that as long as they work together, any difficulty can be overcome.
In the months after Wangji Roujiamo's demise, Shen Yan's business flourished. Customers in the market turned to her stall, hearing that her products were reliable and reasonably priced. She opened her stall on time every morning and soon became a new force in the market.
Shen Yan's business is getting better and better. Sometimes she is so busy that she doesn't even have time to sit down. Not only does she often work overtime, she also hires some helpers to help. There is a long line in front of the stall, waiting to taste her exquisite baking skills and fresh and delicious food.
"Sister Shen, give me two roujiamo!" A familiar voice came from the queue.
Shen Yan looked up from her busy schedule and saw that it was Uncle Zhang, an old customer. She smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, wait a moment, it will be ready soon!"
Uncle Zhang nodded and looked at the busy scene around him with satisfaction. He knew that since Wang Ji went bankrupt, Shen Yan's cooking skills had improved and diners were coming in an endless stream.
Whenever he saw Shen Yan busy running around, he always felt an indescribable sense of relief and pride in his heart.
During this period, Shen Yan not only saved a lot of money, but also made many new friends, and her reputation quickly spread in the market.
She is no longer the unknown peddler, but a reliable and hardworking businessman in the eyes of the citizens.
Every time she closed her stall and went home before nightfall, she saw the heavy copper coins in her wallet, and her heart was filled with satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment.
She knows that all this is hard-won and is the result of her unremitting efforts.
After the craze passed, Shen Yan's business gradually returned to normal. Although customers in the market no longer lined up like before, her stall still had a steady flow of customers. Shen Yan knew that the key to maintaining the sustainable development of the business was to continuously improve the quality of the products.
So she decided to start from the source and plant vegetables and bamboo shoots by herself. She found a vacant lot in her yard and carefully cultivated it with a shovel and hoe. When spring came, she planted various vegetables and bamboo shoots, and every morning she would go to water and weed, taking care of this new field with her own hands.
"Sister, look, our vegetable garden is looking better and better!" Wang Lin said to Shen Yan excitedly, pointing at the newly grown vegetables.
Shen Yan smiled and nodded: "Yes, Lin'er, these vegetables and bamboo shoots can not only ensure that our ingredients are fresh, but also make customers eat more healthily."
Wang Lin helped her sister with the work. She felt extremely proud and grateful when she saw her sister meticulously treating each vegetable. She knew that this vegetable farm was not only to supplement the family income, but also a reflection of her sister's seriousness and persistence in business.
In summer, the vegetable fields are full of green, and all kinds of vegetables thrive in the sun.
Customers came to Shen Yan's stall and tasted fresher and more delicious food.
