Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Chapter 40 Met a Benefactor

"Granny, I didn’t spend a dime, the buns were given by Lin, and from now on the Bun Shop will sell this kind of meat bun."

Hearing that it was from Lin, Granny Su hurriedly took one and tried it, her eyes widening, "This meat bun is delicious, and the way Lin looks, of course, the buns are as exquisite as her appearance."

Su Wensong didn’t take it to heart, Granny liked Lin Chuxia, and she had rose-colored glasses when it came to her. Even if he bought random buns outside and said they were from Lin, Granny would probably still praise them.

He took a meat bun, bit into it, paused for a moment, then took another bite, and after three bites, Su Wensong slapped his thigh and laughed out loud.

"I’ve really met my benefactor."

With such meat buns, it would be a crime against heaven if the Bun Shop didn’t succeed.

With money in hand, Su Wensong was more devoted, and the renovation was quickly done. The tile workers finished in two days, and due to waiting for the dimensions of the windows and doors, the carpenters waited an extra day. By the fourth day, the two rooms had been transformed according to Lin Chuxia’s blueprints.

Lin Chuxia could see the bustling scene from the train station entrance, and occasionally she would come to check on things. She was very satisfied with both the progress and the quality of the work.

Once the rooms were renovated, it was time to prepare tables, chairs, benches, and cooking equipment.

The money from last time had not been used up, Lin Chuxia gave Su Wensong another hundred bucks, and even provided him with the contact for the coal depot.

Su Wensong was reliable, and this was the first Bun Shop she opened, with second and third ones to follow...

As a boss, knowing how to use your employees is also an art.

According to this pace, the Bun Shop would be able to open in just a few days.

But for these two days, she still had to run her stall.

She set up her stall, picked three buns as usual, two meat and one vegetarian, and brought them to the elderly.

But before she could even put down the buns, the old man, who had been silent since the first day he refused her, spoke up again.

"Take the vegetarian one back; I like meat."

Lin Chuxia: "..."

This old man, really...

"Coincidentally, today all three buns are vegetarian, if you don’t like them, then I’ll take them all back."

The old man immediately glared at her, "How dare you switch my meat buns for vegetarian ones?"

Lin Chuxia couldn’t help but laugh, "Old sir, since when did these buns become yours?"

The old man, puffing up with anger, watched Lin Chuxia as she pretended to leave, then snatched the buns and took a big bite.

After noticing the meat filling, he gave Lin Chuxia a sidelong glance and snorted coldly, "Liar."

"I didn’t lie to you, it’s still two meat buns and one vegetarian. You’re old; you can’t just eat meat all the time. You must eat some vegetables too."

The vegetarian option was an addition she had made yesterday; it wasn’t good for the old man to eat meat all the time.

"Yeah, they do look that way. Look at the buns from the seller across the street, as soon as she opens the steamer, there’s steam and they look freshly made. Hers, on the other hand, are almost cold. While it’s alright to eat cold buns in the summer, they just don’t seem fresh."

"Not only do they seem un-fresh, but they also taste bad. The last time I bought two from her when that girl across didn’t show up, my grandson wouldn’t even touch them."

The two were pressuring Granny Sun to compensate, and the surrounding voices were all blaming her, making Granny Sun finally lose her calm, her face showing a flicker of panic.

The next second, she saw Lin Chuxia across the way, and with a quick twist of her eyes, she pointed at her and shouted loudly, "You say my buns have a problem? I saw with my own eyes you bought from across the street. Why don’t you go there for compensation, trying to blackmail an old woman?"

The middle-aged woman looked at her with contempt, "Don’t try to lie; we know where we bought our buns from."

The old lady nearby chimed in, "We definitely bought them from you, you won’t admit it and still tell us to blackmail someone else, your intentions are terrible."

Granny Sun was not backing down, "How come I don’t remember you buying from me? I would say you came over from the opposite side to frame me, trying to push me out of the business here, no way."

Her outburst made some bystanders, who were unsure of the truth, also turn their gazes towards Lin Chuxia.

"I remember at first there was only one bun seller at the train station, now there are two, so competition is inevitable."

"Come to think of it, I recall that this spot was the first to sell buns."

"Even if there is competition, using such nasty tactics is not right; it’s not easy for someone of her age to come out and do business."

"It’s hard to say what the truth is, let’s just watch."

Lin Chuxia was originally just a spectator, but who knew that soon the drama would come knocking at her door.
