Chapter 1018: Money for drinks? Nah, use it to buy vegetables

Yu Dong smiled at the woman who was speaking to her and then replied, " Miss, it\'s not that I don\'t want to sell my vegetables to you but currently only my family is responsible for growing these vegetables.  With my family selling these vegetables along with supplying the Song restaurant, I don\'t think that I can sell some to you but if you want then you can come to my shop and I will try my best to provide you with what you want."          

Long Ju immediately said, " What do you mean by that? The vegetables are expensive as it is and you want to pay extra money?"      

Hearing her response Song Yixu immediately turned unhappy and then said, " I say what is the matter with you, Long Ju? You want the vegetables but you don\'t want to pay? Do you think the world works as you want? Sister Dong is selling vegetables and if she keeps aside some it\'s because she is giving me face but that doesn\'t mean that others would ask her why she is not selling the vegetables that are set aside. I don\'t want her to be troubled because of me, if you want to buy vegetables by asking her to keep some aside for you then it\'s only right that you pay extra, understand? Or you can sleep on the streets for all I care."      

Firstly it was them who were asking Yu Dong to sell them vegetables and not the other way round, it wasn\'t as if Yu Dong was begging them to buy her vegetables because with how fresh and delicious her vegetables tasted, Yu Dong wouldn\'t have any trouble selling it to others even if Long Ju and Jie Shun did not pay extra for it.      

Secondly, Yu Dong was only giving them face by asking them to come to the shop on account of her. If not then Song Yixu had seen Yu Dong refusing many eager customers by saying that she did not have enough to sell them.      

And third and finally, who gave Long Ju to act as if she was the one who was getting the shorter end of the stick? Did she want her to kick her out of the restaurant, was that it?      

Long Ju saw how protective Song Yixu was towards Yu Dong and was speechless if not for the fact that she did not know that Song Yixu had no interest in marriage, she would have thought that Song Yixu had a crush on Yu Dong. She was momentarily stunned before laughing loudly and saying, " Oh dear looks like I said something upsetting, I did not mean anything else but you know how brother-in-law is right? He likes to keep the money of our house under his charge… if I were to ask for extra payment to buy vegetables, I don\'t think he will agree."      

"Why don\'t you try it first?" Song Yixu remarked as she turned to look at Yu Dong and asked, " How much money would you like to do extra booking for?"      

Yu Dong was speechless when she heard the words of the three rich women. She knew that they had a lot of money to spend but still … paying extra for just booking the vegetables? She thought it was a bit too much but if she handed the vegetables for free then all her customers would get upset if they were found out thinking she was playing favourites.      

In the end, she could only turn to Song Yixu and ask, " What do you think will be the right price?"      

Song Yixu pursed her lips and then placed her hand on her chin before humming. She did not want to take advantage of either Yu Dong or her friends which was why she thought about it and then said, " How about two taels? You can arrange a booking for five catties of vegetables for two taels." She then turned to look at her friends and then said, " I hope this is not too much, given that you two spend so much money on drinking and fooling around, I think two taels is enough to book vegetables?"      

" Erm…" Long Ju did not expect Song Yixu to target her drinking fund and then stated, " But it\'s the money for my drinks, Yixu."      

" Then I think you can do some good to your body by using it to pay for your meals I guess? Have you forgotten Ju\'er? The reason your husband keeps a firm hold on your finances is that you always drink too much, maybe if you learn how to drink in control, your husband wouldn\'t monitor you so much," retorted Song Yixu.      

Long Ju: "…" Damn they all have something to say about my drinks huh.      

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Song Yixu sneered, " Do you think that I will let you continue to freeload in my restaurant? Hmph, if that is the case then I have one way to deal with it," she turned to look at Yu Dong and said, " Sister Dong, you don\'t need to deliver me extra vegetables because you are kind enough to leave some for me and my staff, it\'s benefiting someone else!"
