"Wow! So the little rich girl is here to shop?" Xu Lai called out in a mocking tone when he saw Sheng Anlai.
"Why aren't you making money today? How come you have time to visit our place?"
With a forced smile, Sheng An tugged at the corner of her mouth and said, "I'm not setting up my stall today. I've run out of sugar at home and came to buy some."
Sheng An, who conducted business daily, had become one of the wealthiest young women in the village. This fact made Xu Laodi quite jealous, and he often spoke ill of her behind her back.
"Then let me have a piece to try."
Sheng An smiled, went into the small shop, bought a bag of rock sugar, and then sat down on a tree stump in front of Xu Laodi.
"Here, I'll treat you to one today." Since she wanted to extract information, Xu Laodi was her best option. Sheng An knew Xu Laodi well; he loved small advantages and could reveal a lot if paid.
