The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 241: Scouting the Store_1

Whenever there’s a changeover, there’s bound to be some trouble.

Li Qing had seen plenty of this and had a pretty calm attitude about it; it wasn’t anything to make a big fuss over.

But with Qin Wenjun’s way of handling things, he wasn’t very optimistic about her work.

There would probably be no avoiding some trouble in the future.

The village might be small, but things were very complex. You couldn’t just shout and threaten people to get them to cooperate; most of the villagers had a stubborn streak and needed to be cajoled.

After leaving the village office, Li Qing casually walked to Auntie Caili’s corner store.

"Auntie!"

Entering and not seeing anyone, he called out into the interior.

"Hey, here I am."

Auntie Caili’s voice sounded, a hair clip in her mouth, as she emerged with her hair being put up.

She was wearing a black, floral-trimmed V-neck shirt, with a white tank top faintly visible underneath.

The part of her chest visible at the opened neckline was a pair of snowy mounds, half-exposed, creating a deeply plunging cleavage.

Li Qing’s throat moved slightly. Looking left and right, he slipped his hand into the cleavage.

It felt smooth and supple, a warm comfort in the sweltering heat.

Auntie Caili’s eyes sparkled with dazzling allure as she quickly pursed her lips outward, flicking Li Qing’s hand away.

"You want to do it?" she asked with a low chuckle.

Li Qing glanced outside, seeing a group of people sitting in the square drinking beer, and reined in his romantic thoughts, muttering, "Yeah, how could I not? These past few days, I’ve often dreamt of Auntie, your streams gushing."

Auntie Caili’s cheeks turned red and she spat softly, "Tssk, can’t you be serious for once?"

"These next few days probably won’t work; I need to figure out how to quickly clear out the stuff in the store."

"When it comes to selling, it always feels like there’s not enough, and when people come to buy, there’s always something missing."

"But when it’s time to clear out, it truly is a headache. I don’t want to sell it for too cheap, but nobody wants it if the price is just slightly low."

Li Qing’s gaze shifted as he surveyed the store and suddenly an idea sprang to mind, "Auntie, how about you don’t clear it out?"

"If I don’t clear it out, should I just throw it away? That’s all money!" said Auntie Caili, sounding none too pleased.

Li Qing earnestly said, "I mean, you could transfer the store to me!"

"Transfer it to you? You’re so busy you can’t even see straight, how are you going to run a store? Don’t joke around!" Auntie Caili shook her head, "I appreciate your willingness to help me, and when I have the chance, I’ll take good care of you!"

Li Qing couldn’t help but give a wry smile and said, "Auntie, I’m serious."

"Although I might indeed not have the time to tend the store myself, my sister-in-law can, right? I’ve always wanted to help her out."

Auntie Caili nodded in understanding, "Your sister-in-law, eh? That could work."

"If you’re really keen, I’ll give you everything at half price; the house, I’ll give it to you for free, it’s just a bit run-down, you’ll have to spruce it up a bit."

Li Qing waved his hand, "Auntie, you still have to discuss it with Uncle Lame-leg. It should be for however much it’s worth."

"If I were to deal with it, I might get a bit more than half price. Don’t worry, your auntie here won’t let herself be shortchanged," Auntie Caili laughed, "just like with you wanting to do it with me, I’d definitely go for my own pleasure first."

Li Qing burst out with a helpless laugh.

That analogy... quite bold.

"Auntie, then let’s settle the matter just like this," Li Qing said firmly.

Auntie Caili’s laughter was as vibrant as a bloom of passionate flowers. She gently stroked the back of Li Qing’s hand, speaking coquettishly, "You’ve really helped me out, so when I get the chance, I’ll call you over and take good care of you. A few times wouldn’t be a problem, I can handle it."

The words made Li Qing feel an irresistible urge stirring within him.

Just as he was about to take action and gather some "interest," the corner of his eye caught someone approaching from the opposite side, so he had to suppress the increasingly ardent thoughts galloping through his mind.

"Then I’ll be going now, I see someone’s coming." Li Qing said.

Auntie Caili glanced outside and handed Li Qing a bottle of drink, "Here, take this to drink."

Li Qing didn’t stand on ceremony, took the drink, and left the convenience store, walking towards Han Mei’s place.

He still needed to discuss with Han Mei about taking over the convenience store.

The courtyard at Han Mei’s place was quiet and serene. Li Qing looked around but couldn’t find Han Mei.

But the gate was wide open, so it was obvious someone was home.

Having no other choice, Li Qing went around to the backyard vegetable garden and found Han Mei there, picking tomatoes.

She was wearing a pair of blue jeans and a tight white short-sleeved shirt, which instantly made Li Qing’s eyes light up.

With such attire, sister-in-law seemed as youthful and pretty as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

As she bent over to pick tomatoes, her firm and round buttocks were taut, outlining a perfect peach shape, which made Li Qing’s heart fluctuate with waves of desire.

With a slender yet shapely figure paired with jeans, sister-in-law looked absolutely stunning.

He tiptoed over and gently placed his palm on the roundness of Han Mei’s buttocks.

But before Li Qing could properly savor the soft curvature, Han Mei became aware of his touch.

"Ah!"

She screamed like a startled rabbit and leaped up, already throwing the tomatoes in her hand as she turned around. Li Qing was startled and quickly caught the tomato.

"Sister-in-law, don’t hit, I-I-I..."

After calming herself, Han Mei glared at Li Qing with annoyance, "You trying to scare me to death?"

"Other than me, no one dares to touch your butt, sister-in-law," Li Qing said with a smile as he flattered her.

Han Mei gave a sideways glance, "What do you mean by that? Are you saying I’m fierce or I’m ugly?"

"Of course, sister-in-law is fierce!" Li Qing laughed.

"That doesn’t sound like a compliment to me," Han Mei chided lightly.

Li Qing took the opportunity to place his hand again on Han Mei’s perky buttocks.

Soft and very elastic.

Li Qing truly liked Han Mei’s figure more and more.

She was slender yet curvaceous in all the right places.

Her lower half was top-notch, her figure was also top-notch.

"Stop messing around and help me take these tomatoes inside. Lately, I’ve been freeloading off Tian Yue’e’s and hadn’t noticed that the tomatoes in the garden had ripened to this state," Han Mei said with a glance at him.

Li Qing reluctantly gave a couple more squeezes, "How long will it take to eat so many?"

There were four large baskets on the ground, all filled to the brim.

"Use part of them to make sauce, the rest we’ll sell in town tomorrow," Han Mei said.

Li Qing slapped his forehead, having almost forgotten about selling vegetables recently with all the distractions.

"Sister-in-law, I’m planning to take over Auntie Caili’s convenience store for you," Li Qing mentioned while bending down to move the tomatoes, "Though it’s a small shop, I think the earnings seem quite good."
