Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 437: Brought to Tears by Spice

A few elementary school students didn’t leave.

A little girl saw that their eyes were practically glowing green and thought for a moment before tearing open a pack of spicy snacks and offering it to them.

"Why don’t you all have a piece?"

Tuanzi wasn’t interested in the spicy snack, but Zhong Yi was interested in everything. He sweetly called her ’sister’ and was about to grab a piece.

The director had to remind Zhong Yi from off-camera, "Your mom doesn’t let you eat spicy snacks."

[Hahaha]

[That sounds so familiar, I grew up hearing that]

[To the person above, have you ever tried spicy snacks?]

[I had to sneak them without my parents knowing...and then got caught and spanked]

For the sake of food, Zhong Yi was very determined. He struggled to break free from Tuanzi’s grip and wobbled his head as he argued, "Mom’s not here, so her words don’t count. What I say counts."

Tuanzi had no reason to hold Zhong Yi back anymore, so she let go.

She kindly reminded Zhong Yi, "Have you ever eaten spicy snacks before?"

Zhong Yi shook his head while picking at his fingers and then swallowed his saliva, "My cousin eats them often, they must be delicious, but he won’t let me have any."

At this moment, Ai Fengyi had successfully shaken off her brother and grabbed a spicy snack from the unfamiliar young lady. She happily took a bite, but her expression immediately changed.

Almost instantly, tears filled her eyes.

She looked at her brother with teary eyes.

Ai Tanbo sighed, "Is it really spicy?"

Ai Fengyi nodded pitifully.

She’s never tried them before and thought they would be delicious, but why are they so spicy? And the texture is just okay. Boohoo, it’s so spicy; she never wants to eat them again!

The bit of spicy snack in her mouth was hard to swallow and hard to spit out. As if that wasn’t enough, she looked at the remainder in her hand with teary eyes, afraid to throw it away for fear of wasting it. Besides, the young lady who gave her the snack was watching from the side.

"Give it to me."

Ai Tanbo could only take it and eat it himself.

Even though his little sister was afraid of spice, so was he. Soon, this little boy with rosy cheeks and white teeth was also teary-eyed.

The siblings’ reactions didn’t dampen Zhong Yi’s enthusiasm. He bravely took a spicy snack from the young lady’s hand and, without thinking, stuffed it all into his mouth and chewed vigorously.

Everyone watched him tensely.

Soon, the little boy’s eyes turned red; his tears welled up, but he continued to chew with puffed cheeks.

When the tears finally fell, and the spicy snack in his mouth was gone, he reached out pitifully to the young lady, his voice still trembling with a hint of a babyish sob.

"More."

Young lady: "..."

The elementary school kids dared not give him any more; they took off without a word.

Anyone who knew better knew she was generously sharing the spicy snacks. Anyone who didn’t might think she was bullying the new kid.

Zhong Yi almost burst into tears with a "Waa!"

"I want more, tastes good, spicy, but tastes good, want more!"

He mumbled something indistinctly.

Tuanzi was relieved not having tried the spicy snacks.

"Miaomiao is indeed wise."

She muttered softly to herself, even giving herself a thumbs-up.

The system couldn’t help but rain on her parade.

[Ancient Martial System: Wasn’t it the time you ate spicy fish and your mouth swelled up, and that’s why you didn’t dare to try again?]

Tuanzi immediately pouted.

Couldn’t she have a moment of satisfaction?

Speaking of spicy fish, she recalled Gu Wangchao’s love for spice.

Gu Wangchao’s appearance was extremely beautiful, his temperament was cold and ethereal, and he usually spoke and acted indifferently and with restraint. Who knew such a person loved spicy food? Whenever others at the table ate until they cried, he alone continued eating without a change in expression.

Unfortunately, he was a singer and had to protect his voice, so he only dared indulge once a month.

When he indulged himself, he cooked himself a whole table of food.

And usually, when he indulged, Tuanzi would certainly visit him to play and mooch a meal.

Thinking of Gu Wangchao’s cooking skills, Tuanzi secretly looked forward to when her cousin would schedule his indulgence this month. She wanted to visit him!

That was a matter for later. For now, noticing Zhong Yi was starting to crave other students’ snacks again, Tuanzi and Lu Feiyong quickly dragged him back, one on each side.

"If we work hard at selling, we can buy things," Lu Feiyong advised him.

The little boy with a head like a tiger’s head remembered it was a livestream and said, "There are many uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters watching you now!"

Zhong Yi let him drag him, providing a solid argument, "I can’t see them, so they don’t exist."

[Makes so much sense, I’m speechless]

[He’s truly relentless for the sake of food]

[Honestly, I used to think Miaomiao was quite a foodie, but now...]

[Isn’t the show about the story of little bosses? Why are they always arguing about food?]

[People live for the sake of food / Worn-out lighting a cigarette.jpg]

[The show’s crew must have been prepared for uncontrolled content with kid guests, hahaha]

Lu Feiyong’s attempt to persuade was unsuccessful, so Tuanzi tried.

She directly patted Zhong Yi’s small belly.

"Stop eating; if you eat more, you won’t be able to walk."

Zhong Yi: "I can crawl; I don’t need to walk."

Tuanzi: "..."

Luckily, by that time, the village children had all been scared away.

Even if Zhong Yi wanted to eat more, he couldn’t find anyone to beg from. He sulkily returned to the checkout counter, staring longingly at the things on it.

Tuanzi shot him a sharp look, "Whew!"

Zhong Yi quickly lowered his head, not daring to look anymore.

He was somewhat afraid of this sister, always feeling she was like a little tiger.

After the brief interlude, the supermarket’s business fell into a slump once again.

Unwilling to give up, the few kids chirped and discussed, eventually deciding to leave a few people to watch the store while the rest went around the village to promote the small supermarket’s activities.

The real owners of the supermarket weren’t too eager to hold promotions. After all, the village had only one small supermarket and one tiny store.

The villagers had no choice—even if they didn’t hold promotions and sold things a bit more expensively or sold near-expiry products, the villagers still had to buy. Of course, people who could go to town would surely buy in bulk and avoid the supermarket. But those elderly people with limited mobility could only come to their store for daily necessities. And young ones with pocket money could only sneak in to buy snacks. Their parents wouldn’t bother to buy snacks for them in town.

After realizing that the young guests intended to go around the village to promote, the couple couldn’t help but find the director, hoping he would step in to stop it.

Director Zheng smiled, "We’ve already paid the daily fees."

The fees they paid were enough to allow the kids to hold any activities they wanted. In short, this couple would definitely profit, and quite a bit at that.

This show was essentially about observing children. The fact that Tuanzi and the others had learned to use calculators, devised various marketing activities, proactively sought advice from adults, and independently solved sudden issues had already far exceeded Director Zheng’s expectations.

At this point, he supported nearly anything the kids wanted to do.

The couple was still somewhat unsatisfied.

"They’re just children and don’t understand many things. If they do promotions now and villagers become accustomed to it, what happens when the show is over and we don’t hold promotions or sell at lower prices? Won’t no one buy from us?"
