Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

Chapter 186 Broken Promise

Then he took out his own banknotes from a safe in the mall, and took out two 100-liang notes. Xiao Caoer took a safe in the mall and placed it in a fixed location to store his things.

These were the profits from my grandparents' braising business. Old Mrs. Yang would give Xiaocao a little every time as the cost of buying the braising ingredients packages. After saving up more than two hundred taels over the years.

Then he sat down at the desk, picked up a pen and wrote two agreements, one to give up making soap. The two hundred taels were to be given to them as a subsidy.

Just as I was about to put down the pen, I thought about it and picked up the pen again to write on another piece of paper.

This afternoon, Xiao Caoer did not take a nap like usual, but she still left the room at the same time as usual. Then she walked around the main room for a while, and then left the house, walking slowly alone.

"Little sister." It was Damao's voice calling her from behind.

Xiao Cao'er slowly turned around, with the same expression as usual. "Brother, what's the matter? Do you want to go to Brother Goudan's house with me?"

"Do you need your brother to accompany you?" asked Damao.

"Brother, let me go with you. You stay home and pack the things you need to take with you. Pack them carefully, otherwise you will get into trouble if you find out you forgot to bring them when we get to Beijing." Sanmao followed behind.

Xiao Cao'er smiled and said to them, "Are you worried that I can't get it back? Don't worry, I can do it myself. You all go back and pack your things."

Sanmao persuaded Damao to go back, and she walked slowly with Xiaocaoer.

In the past two years, because Sanmao wanted to learn how to do business, he became much closer to Xiaocaoer. When he didn't understand something, he would come back to ask her, and Xiaocaoer also taught Sanmao a lot about business.

"Sister, if you feel sad, just cry. Third brother won't laugh at you."

Xiao Cao seldom cried since she was little, because there was an adult soul living in her body, and there was nothing worth crying about, except what happened just now.

"Third brother, why should I be sad? I really did something wrong."

Sanmao: It would be nice if I could still hear my sister’s voice.

We haven't heard Xiaocao'er's inner voice in the past two years. Everyone unanimously concluded that Xiaocao has grown up and can say and do everything, so there is no need to communicate with them through inner voice.

Xiaocaoer herself thinks so too.

I’m also glad that they couldn’t hear it, otherwise I don’t know what I would do if it weren’t for the situation today?

"Third brother, you really don't have to accompany me. I can handle it. There may be more things I have to face on my own in the future. I can't always follow you guys. It's time for me to learn to face things on my own." Xiao Cao'er once again refused Sanmao's company.

Sanmao stood still, just looking at Xiaocao. Xiaocao also didn't move, just looking at her, with a calm expression on her face.

After a while, Sanmao said, "If you need anything, tell me, Brother San."

"okay, got it."

After saying that, the two siblings walked in different directions.

Xiaocaoer continued to walk slowly towards Goudan's house alone.

From a distance, they saw Goudan and Tietou standing at the gate of the yard, talking about something. Xiaocaoer stood there and waved at them, and they both ran over quickly.

When he got to Xiaocao'er, Tietou asked, "Sister Xiaocao'er, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

"Brothers, do you have time to walk with me?" Xiao Cao'er asked.

The two men said without thinking: "Of course, we don't have anything to do right now anyway, let's go and catch some fish by the river for a dinner snack." Goudan said, and then asked Tietou to go back and get a bucket.

Xiao Cao'er didn't object and just stood on the roadside waiting for Tietou.

After Tietou came over with the bucket, they walked towards the river together. Xiaocaoer didn't say anything along the way, as if she was thinking about something. Goudan and the other two didn't say anything either, just walked silently beside Xiaocaoer, half a step behind her.

It's cold now and it's hard to catch fish, but this is just a default excuse for everyone.

After a while, Xiao Cao'er's voice rang out. "Brother Goudan, Brother Tietou, a few days ago I said I wanted to make soap with you guys, but I'm going to break my promise and can't make soap with you guys."

After saying that, he looked at the expressions of the two people.

Both of them were stunned for a moment, then returned to normal. Goudan said, "It's okay. It won't work this time. We can do it together later when we come up with something new."

Tietou also nodded and agreed, "Yes, it's okay, you don't have to feel any psychological burden."

"My two sisters-in-law will be very disappointed." Xiao Cao'er turned around, looked at the river and said in a low voice.

"It's okay, I will explain it to them. Really, you don't have to worry, Sister Xiaocao." Goudan said.

He thought the grass now was very different from usual, extremely different, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

"Brother Goudan, Brother Tietou, I have an agreement here. You followed me to make soap twice in the past two days, and you should have mastered the method of making soap. The agreement states that I will no longer make soap in the future, not even for my own use. Do you agree to sign it?" He handed over one of the copies.

Goudan Tietou could recognize a few words, and the agreement did not contain many difficult words, so it seemed easy.

"Sister Xiaocao, could you please read it to us?" They took a look and found that there were a few words they didn't recognize, so they simply asked Xiaocao to read faster.

Xiao Caoer read it to them once, and they had no objections after listening to it. This was originally Xiao Cao's idea, so it was understandable that others did not allow you to do it.

Ancient people had this good idea. If others didn’t agree with it, they wouldn’t do it. It’s not like modern times, when a new product comes out, there will be a lot of imitations.

Both of them had no objection and were willing to sign. Xiao Caoer took out the pen and ink that she had just put in the mall at home and gave them to the two of them. After they signed, they also pressed their fingerprints.

Xiao Cao'er looked as if he was relieved, but actually he felt a little sad inside.

She found a place to sit down and didn't say anything for a long time.

Goudan and Tietou didn't disturb her and sat down somewhere else.

Goudan suddenly felt that Xiaocao'er's current expression could be described as sad.

But why? Wasn't everything fine yesterday? Could it be that he had a conflict with his family over the soap? But Uncle Dashan, Aunt Dashan, and Grandma Dashan all knew about it, so it couldn't be this.

"Sister Xiaocao, has something happened?" Tietou asked.

"It's okay, I was just thinking about something else." Xiao Cao'er suddenly returned to her normal smile.

"Brothers, do you know how many people are raising ducks now?"

"It seems like there are quite a lot, because there was roast duck before, and later people developed other dishes made with ducks, so many villages near water sources around here have people raising ducks." Tietou said.
