Chapter 538 - 524: Arrogance (Extra)

"Sister Ah Qing, aren’t those words a bit too bold? The clothes we’re making are based on my cousin’s designs."

"Just say whether we’re betting or not."

"Betting." Liang Weixiang spoke up, "Ah Qing, if our clothes sell tomorrow, we split fifty-fifty. If they don’t sell, how about the seventy-thirty split you mentioned?"

"No matter how you negotiate, you can’t get fifty percent. At most, sixty-forty. But I guarantee our signed agreement will be seventy-thirty tomorrow. I take seventy, you take thirty."

Liang Weixiang and her daughter hesitated as Ye Qing spoke so confidently.

Ye Qing remained calm and added, "You know, if the volume is large, even thirty percent can’t amount to a small sum."

Liang Weixiang threw caution to the wind, slammed the table, and shouted, "Betting!"

The loud noise startled the kids inside the room, waking them and causing them to cry.

Qiu Hualan quickly ran inside, drawing a displeased look from Ye Qing at Liang Weixiang.

Liang Weixiang awkwardly laughed twice, feeling a bit embarrassed.

After the matter was settled, Liang Weixiang didn’t stay long and hurried home to get the clothes made overnight.

The next day, early in the morning, the two hurriedly ate breakfast and took the clothes to the street where Zhang Dandan often went to set them up for sale.

Qiu Hualan returned from grocery shopping, seeing the mother and daughter selling clothes early and felt a bit worried for her daughter.

"Ah Qing, weren’t your words yesterday a bit too bold? Liang Weixiang and her daughter are already out there setting up a stall."

"Mom, did you see their clothes?"

"Saw them from afar, they’re gray with large flowers on them."

"Lin Wan’s design was with puff sleeves, quite fashionable, suitable for young women like us. They chose a floral pattern that even looks old on people your age, let alone ours. It’s mismatched. Who would want it?"

"But they’re already outside selling, keeping guard all day, that’s quite something."

"Early in the morning, people are busy heading to work, who has the time to stop by the roadside? No matter how early you go out, it’s useless."

Qiu Hualan sighed, "As long as you know what you’re doing."

Qiu Hualan had thought all night but couldn’t understand why her daughter was involved with Liang Weixiang and her daughter.

Last night she wanted to ask, but her daughter didn’t want to talk.

...

"Zhang Dandan didn’t come yesterday, should we go to their house for money today?" Han Yi asked Lin Wan, who wasn’t worried at all. "No need, even if we go now, they wouldn’t have any money. I guess they sold my clothes and then started making clothes to sell themselves. They’ve likely spent all the money buying fabric now. I’m waiting to surprise them. Let them swagger for two days first."

Han Yi nodded, indeed that makes sense, "By then, I might not be at home."

"Don’t worry about me, I can handle those two."

"Make sure you don’t suffer losses. If it really comes to a fight, how can you handle both alone? When you go, take Brother, or Su Ling with you."

"Okay, I understand. Today Brother is taking Brother Ah Zhi to Aunt’s house, just right for Brother to help me check out the situation."

Daring to blatantly cheat her goods, let’s see how she deals with them, giving them a hard time would be quite something.

After this, they probably wouldn’t dare stay around here. "Let Brother check out the situation first, if not, I’ll go frighten them tonight, ensuring they wouldn’t dare step out for half a year to a year... or scare them right back into their home."

"That’s a good idea."

Lin Wan and Han Yi went to the front yard later and told Brother about the situation with Liang Weixiang and her daughter yesterday, asking Brother to keep an eye on what they were up to.

After sending off Brother, Han Yi took Lin Wan to Grandma’s house. This time Brother Ah Zhi came and specially brought the bath herbs Grandma used last time. Just right to give them to her today. They intended to go yesterday afternoon, but Zhang Dandan delayed them, wasting an entire afternoon without seeing her.

Just as they arrived, they coincidentally met Shen Rong and her husband there too.

Lin Wan could sense a subtle atmosphere inside the house, Sister-in-law and Grandma both didn’t look too pleased.

But seeing them arrive, they made an effort to smile and greeted them warmly. It was Han Yi’s first time meeting Shen Rong’s husband Li Chang.

But Li Chang knew Lin Wan, and he was a tactful person, upon seeing them he quickly stood up and smiled to greet them. "Cousin sister and cousin are here, hello cousin. I’m Rongrong’s husband, during our wedding you were in the army and couldn’t come home, today is the first we’ve met." he said, quickly extending his hand.
