The Koi Wife of the Prime Minister

Chapter 146: Harvesting Snails

Although they cannot taste it today, they look forward to Miss Shen's early recovery so that she can serve them delicious food again.

As customers chatted, they could be heard expressing their special liking for Miss Shen and her snail noodles, sharing their love and yearning for this delicacy.

"Don't worry, Miss Shen is sick. She will be able to open the stall in three or four days." Sister Xiaolan said, "However, although there is no snail rice noodle today, I made spicy fried snails, which tastes good. You can buy some to try. It's free."

After hearing what Xiaolan said, the customers' eyes lit up and they all expressed their desire to try the spicy fried snails. Although it was not Shen's signature snail rice noodle, they were still full of expectations for Xiaolan's cooking skills.

"Okay, spicy fried snails sounds good too!"

A young man said excitedly, "And it's free to try, it's awesome!"

"Yes, I want one too!"

A middle-aged woman immediately expressed her opinion, "Although I am a little reluctant to give up Miss Shen's snail noodles, spicy fried snails is also a new attempt, and it may be delicious."

"Then let's try it!"

An old man smiled and said, "Thank you Sister Xiaolan for the free tasting. We can also taste different delicacies."

Customers bought the spicy fried snails and tasted them with great interest.

Sister Xiaolan and Guifang are busy serving new dishes and every customer, hoping to bring them a satisfying dining experience.

On the official road, although there was no snail noodle dish made by Miss Shen today, Sister Xiaolan's spicy fried snails also attracted many diners, making the business of Xiangxiang Shop gradually lively.

The charm of this delicacy encourages people to constantly try new flavors, and also prompts Sister Xiaolan and Guifang to continue to innovate and bring more surprises and satisfaction to their guests.

Soon, Sister Xiaolan and Guifang had sold all the food at Xiangxiang Shop and were ready to close the stall and go home.

On the other hand, business at Wang Lao Da and Wang Juan's place became a little bleak. They were still not sold out after lunch time, and almost all the customers came to Xiang Xiang Shop.

The Wang couple were a little anxious.

Sister Xiaolan and Guifang didn't care about that. They packed up and prepared to go home. Sister Xiaolan was still worried about Shen Yan's health. She had her period and needed someone to take care of her, so she had to go back early.

Wang Lin is a little kid and might not be able to take care of Shen Yan. Sister Xiaolan thought that after returning home, she could cook some hot soup for Shen Yan to warm her body.

When Sister Xiaolan was about to leave, a few people who were setting up stalls nearby called her.

Originally, the vendors setting up stalls on this street were very jealous of their family, and of course they were envious, but when they thought about it just now, Sister Xiaolan said that Shen Yan was sick these days and couldn't come, so the snail noodles and spicy snails would not be made.

Does this mean that Shen Yan no longer collects snails?

At the beginning, Wan Xiaolian offended Shen Yan because of the snail incident, which caused Shen Yan to stop accepting snails from everyone, and the villagers had no money to earn from it.

"By the way, Sister Xiaolan, is Sister Yan really not going to collect snails anymore?"

Sister Xiaolan nodded and said, "Yes, Shen Yan is sick, and there have been some things going on at home these days. We can't close the shop anymore. We don't have that much energy. Shen Yan can't handle everything by herself. It's better for us to just take care of this stall."

She didn't show a good look to this group of people. She put the things in the cart and prepared to push the cart away.

Those people looked at Sister Xiaolan's departing back, with a hint of sarcasm and smug smile on their faces. They were happy that Shen Yan no longer bought snails, thinking that this was the result they had been looking forward to for a long time.

"It looks like our plan worked."

A short vendor said proudly, "Since Shen Yan no longer collects snails, our business will be better. We can finally get rid of her constraints."

"That's right. Shen Yan has always been unfriendly to us snail sellers, and now he has finally received the punishment he deserves."

Another person sneered, "Who does she think she is? Why does she have this world to herself?"

"Yes, we can sell the snails to other places without worrying about it in the future, and we won't have to be restricted by her anymore."

Someone said excitedly, "Our business will get better and better!"

They high-fived each other, filled with joy of victory.

For them, Shen Yan no longer purchasing snails means that they can make more profits and get rid of her control.

However, they do not realize that their pride is only temporary and their victory may be just a short-lived illusion.

In this delicate game between vendors, the winner may not yet be decided, and there are still many variables in the future.

On the other hand, some people were very worried when they heard that Shen Yan did not collect snails.

Because they have a lot of snails at home, if they suddenly stop harvesting them, the snails will soon become smelly.

If they were to sell it to other vendors, it would not be five cents, but three cents a barrel, which was far less than the price Shen Yan offered. Therefore, these people were still worried in private, and finally pinned the blame on Wan Xiaolian.

"If Wan Xiaolian hadn't deliberately done something bad, Shen Yan wouldn't have refused to take our snails. We are all implicated by Wan Xiaolian."

Some people in the village began to blame Wan Xiaolian for their resentment and responsibility. They believed that Wan Xiaolian's behavior caused Shen Yan to stop purchasing snails, which brought them losses and troubles.

"That's right. If it weren't for that arrogant woman Wan Xiaolian, how could Shen Yan not accept our snails?"

A middle-aged farmer said indignantly, "She has always been a troublemaker. Now she has caused Shen Yan to stop collecting snails. What should we do?"

"Yes, that woman Wan Xiaolian is a disaster!"

Another villager echoed, "She has always wanted to mess up our village, and now she has even messed up Shen Yan's business. How despicable!"

"We must settle accounts with her and let her know the consequences of angering people like us!"

Someone said angrily, "She doesn't deserve to stay in our village. She will be punished sooner or later!"

Filled with anger and dissatisfaction, the villagers began to discuss plans to deal with Wan Xiaolian.

They decided to unite and put pressure on Wan Xiaolian to make her bear the consequences of destroying Shen Yan's business.

However, they do not realize that all this may be just a superficial phenomenon and the real problem may be hidden deeper.

"Hey, you guys said, Shen Yan didn't come out to set up the stall anymore, and Sister Xiaolan said she was sick, could it be that she got sick from being angry?"

"You know what? Besides, she doesn't collect snails anymore. Maybe it's because of this."

"Who said it wasn't true? If I were to be involved in this, I would feel bad too. After all, Shen Yan is doing this for everyone. Although she makes some money from her own business, she also helps ordinary people make money.
