Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, was calm and composed. She walked to the counter and looked at the accountant, who was dozing off inside. “May I ask if you’re the shopkeeper?”
The accountant was a little impatient after someone disturbed his rest. As he was about to speak, he heard the little girl say sincerely, “You look so imposing and have an extraordinary temperament. You must be the shopkeeper!”
The accountant was speechless. He suddenly felt very happy.
His tone softened. “Young lady, why are you looking for the shopkeeper?”
Xiaoxiao continued to shout blindly. “Uncle, I want to ask if your restaurant accepts novel food. It’s very delicious!”

When he listened to her words, he thought, “Huh, why is this little girl so good at talking?” The accountant smiled until his eyes narrowed. “I’m not the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper is not busy now. I can go to ask him.”
He could take a trip to wake himself up.
Ning Erlang was stunned. Ning Dalang coughed lightly and reminded his sister, “That uncle was looking at the account book with an abacus just now. He must be the accountant of this restaurant.”
Xiaoxiao nodded and said, “I know, but…” She clenched her fists and looked serious. “It’s not good to not want to be a shopkeeper.”
Ning Dalang did not understand, but he seemed to have understood something.
Ning Erlang wanted to take his bold sister away. “How dare you come here to sell bamboo shoots? Aren’t you afraid of being beaten up?”
Xiaoxiao wagged her finger. “I’ve already asked Uncle Zhang about it. In the county, the shopkeeper of the Fragrance Restaurant is the kindest. He won’t fall out with us even if the deal doesn’t work.”
“Besides, there’s nothing difficult in the world. Just give it a try. If it doesn’t work, there’s no loss. What if it succeeds? The opportunity is fleeting. It’s better to miss it than to miss it.”
These words were a little profound to Ning Erlang, but it didn’t matter. Xiaoxiao wasn’t saying them for him to hear anyway.
Looking at her elder brother’s thoughtful expression, Xiaoxiao felt satisfied. Satisfied, she turned to look at the shopkeeper who had walked down with the accountant. Then, she was even more satisfied to see the acquaintance beside the shopkeeper.
“Pretty sister?”
Shopkeeper Liu was also stunned when she saw Xiaoxiao. She didn’t think that the little girl was here to eat.
Shopkeeper Xu asked in surprise, “Is it someone you know?”
Shopkeeper Liu nodded. “I just met her recently.”
Xiaoxiao could tell that the relationship between these two people was not ordinary. Hence, she blinked and took a step forward. “Birds of a feather flock together. The ancients did not lie to me. Indeed, the friends of outstanding people are also outstanding people.”
Shopkeeper Liu laughed. “Are you praising yourself too?”
Xiaoxiao nodded. “You’re beautiful and smart. How can those ordinary people live?” Shopkeeper Liu blushed and wanted to hit her.
Shopkeeper Xu looked at their interaction in surprise and interrupted good-naturedly, “Girl, why are you looking for me?”
Xiaoxiao asked emotionally, “Uncle, do you want your restaurant to have unique snacks that can’t be bought anywhere else? Do you want your restaurant to be the first to launch new dishes that you’ve never heard of? Do you look forward to your restaurant being the most outstanding and becoming the top restaurant in this county?”
Xiaoxiao asked, “Then do you want to buy our sour bamboo shoots and try it?”
Everyone was speechless.
Ning Erlang had the urge to cover his face and run away after hearing her exaggerated words about selling sour bamboo shoots. She, however, amused the two shopkeepers. Shopkeeper Liu looked at Shopkeeper Xu, who said, “Don’t look at me. You can talk about your own business. It has nothing to do with me.”
She usually separated the public and the private matters.. Shopkeeper Xu was already used to it, so he asked Xiaoxiao, “Bamboo shoots? Are they bamboo shoots?”
