Just when Dongmei was hesitating, the villager woman shouted at the children who walked out of the school gate: "Popsicles, delicious popsicles, one dime, one dime." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The students heard the voice, and the geographical location of the villager woman was very superior, and the children who wanted to eat popsicles flocked to the villager woman like a tide.

And Dongmei looked at the villager woman's popsicles and frozen juices, as well as a little ice cream, and the milk cakes were sold one by one, Dongmei saw it in her eyes and was anxious in her heart.

After a while, Dongmei finally mustered up the courage and shouted at the bustling students: "Sell ice ......"

However, before the word "stick" was shouted, Dongmei turned around and ran away.

She left the bicycle she was on and walked into Song Nian's daughter-in-law's house, as if she was hiding from someone.

Song Nian's daughter-in-law, who was in the house, saw Dongmei coming in, and said in surprise: "Dongmei, so soon, the popsicles are sold out, sit down, the rice is just ready, you can also sit and eat it." ”

Dongmei shook her head, her eyes kept drifting out, and said, "Why did Kang Ping come out of the school?"

Hearing this, Song Nian's daughter-in-law understood, it turned out that Dongmei was hiding from Kang Ping.

Before this, when Kang Ping was still a family member, the two were the best friends, but when Kang Ping got a job and became a worker, their friendship also ended.

And Dongmeizhi was embarrassed to see Kang Ping, because of the only bit of self-esteem in her heart.

She was afraid that her identity as a popsicle seller would be seen by Kang Ping, laughed at by Kang Ping, and looked down upon by Kang Ping.

Song Nian's daughter-in-law poured a glass of water for Dongmei and said, "Drink some water, sit and rest." Recently, Kang Ping's daughter was picked up from her grandmother in her hometown, and she often ran to school as if she was arranged to study at school. ”

Dongmei nodded and said, "So that's the case, I'll just say it." ”

Song Nian's daughter-in-law comforted Dongmei and said: "Isn't it because she has a boss husband who is an official in the company, so she has a job, from a family member, to a working class, what's the big deal, and she looks down on our family." ”

Dongmei shook her head helplessly and said: "Things gather by like, people by groups, maybe others are born to be a good woman." ”

After sighing, Dongmei saw Kang Ping walking over, she hurriedly walked out and said, "Song Nian's daughter-in-law, then you are busy, I will go out to sell popsicles." ”

Song Nian's daughter-in-law hurriedly said: "Don't worry, just eat at my house, and then go out to sell popsicles." ”

Dongmei was in a hurry to go out to sell popsicles, and said "En" in response and walked out.

However, when Dongmei walked out, most of the students had already left the school, and few of the remaining scattered students bought popsicles to eat.

The last teachers in the school didn't buy popsicles to eat.

Seeing that she had missed the best time and opportunity to sell popsicles at the school gate, Dongmei couldn't help but sigh, looking at the back of the bicycle, a box full of them, and not selling a single popsicle, she felt very uncomfortable.

And the villager woman opposite has already sold more than half of a box of popsicles.

She proudly rode a bicycle, walked in front of Dongmei, deliberately uncovered the quilt covering the popsicle, and said to Dongmei: "Women like us who sell popsicles, are all women who have no ability, women who don't have good husbands, women at the lowest level of society, and you are a family member of a worker, don't you stay at home to take care of the doll, enjoy life, and run out to sell popsicles? ”

After saying that, the villager woman rode away.

Dongmei looked at the back of the countrywoman and didn't want to refute her.

Dongmei knew that compared to her own life, the life of a fellow woman was more difficult, so Dongmei didn't want to compete with her, nor did she want to interfere with her business.

After failing to sell popsicles at the school gate, Dongmei hurriedly rode her bicycle home, because he had to rush home to cook for his two children.

Back at home, the two children saw their mother back.

And the children found that their mother was riding a bicycle with a box of popsicles, and the two children simply forgot about their hunger.

They rushed over, opened the lid of the popsicle box, and then took out the popsicle and frozen juice from it and ate it happily.

Dongmei saw the happy appearance of the children, and the unhappiness in her heart before was instantly swept away.

She told herself in her heart that no matter whether she succeeds or fails in business, as long as her children are happy and healthy every day, that is her greatest success.

Dongmei's gloomy face showed a beautiful smile like a flower.

She rushed into the kitchen and made a hearty lunch for the children.

said that it was hearty, but in fact, it was three people, one person and one bowl of noodles, but there were more vegetables and diced meat in the noodles.

However, for the economic conditions of Dongmei and Wei Country, it is already good to be able to guarantee such food every day.

After eating and settling the two children, Dongmei didn't care about the lunch break, so she set off on a bicycle.

He has to sell as many popsicles as he can't sell, otherwise, he will have to charge a storage fee for storing the remaining popsicles in the refrigerator in the wholesale department.

I saw that Dongmei braved the noon sun and walked around in the yard of the base, hoping that someone would buy his popsicles.

After turning around the yard of the base, Dongmei went to the nearby countryside and ran around selling her popsicles.

However, a business without shouting is always a failed business.

Dongmei ran for a day and didn't sell a few popsicles.

No way, she could only store all the popsicles in the box in the wholesale department.

Because Dongmei exposed the box of popsicles to the sun for too long, nearly a third of the popsicles melted.

In this way, Dongmei was tired for a day, not only did she not make a profit, but she also lost some money.

At night, when she returned home, Dongmei lay on the bed, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.

She knew that if she sold popsicles like herself, not only would she not make any money, but she might have to lose all the money she borrowed.

No, no matter what, you have to think about how to change yourself.

First of all, the first step is to stand up and not be afraid of the scorn and ridicule of those around you.

The second step is to shout out, not afraid of the strange stares of the people around you.

The third step is to occupy a favorable position, otherwise, no one will come to buy their own popsicles.

The fourth step is to initiate the relationship, and if you don't know it, as long as you know that your family is selling popsicles, and the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, you should buy your own people's popsicles.

With these changes, early the next morning, Dongmei got up.

He first asked Tao Tao and Nana if they would feel very shameless and ashamed because of their mother selling popsicles at the school gate, and they couldn't hold their heads up in front of teachers and classmates.

Tao Tao and Nana said no in unison.

Instead of being ashamed, the children were proud because their classmates envied their mothers who sold popsicles.

Because then, you can eat as many popsicles as you want.

Hearing this, Dongmei was very happy in her heart, thinking that as long as her behavior did not bring harm to the two children, it would be fine.

So, Dongmei mobilized the two children and asked them to tell their classmates that if they wanted to eat popsicles, they would come to Aunt Dongmei's place to buy popsicles.

Because, Aunt Dongmei's popsicles are always a penny cheaper than the popsicles on the market.

The two children listened and nodded happily.

Before school at noon, Dongmei came to the school gate early.

Due to the early arrival, the favorable terrain under the big tree was not occupied by the villagers.

So, Dongmei parked her bike there directly.

After Taotao and Nana went to school, they were not idle, and kept recommending their mother's popsicles to their classmates.

Especially Taotao, he not only recommended his mother's popsicles to his best friends Fan Wei, Liu Tao, Chang Dalei, Pi Dong, and Baokui, but also recommended them directly to his teachers.

Tao Tao told them that as long as they wanted to eat popsicles, they would go to their mother's place to buy popsicles, because their mother's popsicles only sold for nine cents.

When Dongmei set up the position and everything was ready, the villager woman came over lazily pushing the bicycle.

When she saw that Dongmei occupied her advantageous position, she pushed the bicycle in front of Dongmei with a black face and stopped.

She did not give up this position because Dongmei came early, but directly occupied it.

After the villager woman parked the bicycle, she said to Dongmei viciously: "Do you think you came early, do you think you occupy this good place, do you think that your face is whiter than mine, and your popsicles can be sold to me, telling you to daydream?"

Dongmei didn't say anything, she knew that it was not easy for a fellow woman, and selling popsicles was also to survive.

However, the villager woman intensified her efforts and said: "I have been selling popsicles here for three years, and I have accumulated a group of loyal and trustworthy student customers, I don't believe that they will buy your popsicles instead of my popsicles......"

In the face of the aggressiveness of the fellow woman, Dongmei always remained calm.

She just silently told herself in her heart that she was all for survival, all for making a living, why should women be embarrassed by women?

Although the countryman woman is arrogant, when the countryman woman and Dongmei stand together, the belongings and external images of the two immediately form a stark contrast.

Dongmei rode a cleaned and clean 28 weighted bicycle.

And the fellow woman was riding a worn, rusty, mud-ridden second-hand bicycle.

The box where Dongmei sells popsicles is clean and fair.

The box in which the villager woman sells popsicles is not only black and white, but even the paint has fallen off.

Looking at the clothes of the two of them, although Dongmei is not new or fashionable, she will always wash her clothes cleanly, and you can smell the fragrance of laundry detergent from a distance.

And the countrywoman's clothes have not been washed for at least half a month, and there is a strong smell of stinky sweat on her body.

The consequences of such unequal competition can be imagined.

Soon, the school was over, and the students were still pouring out of the school like a tidal wave.

When the villager woman saw the students coming out, she rolled her eyes at Dongmei, meaning, you just watch me behave in front of you.

I saw that the villager woman quickly shouted: "Popsicles, cool popsicles, everyone come and eat......"

Just as the villager woman was shouting, Dongmei also opened her throat and shouted.

Compared with the strong accent and dialect of the countrywoman, Dongmei's Mandarin sounds more pleasant.

She shouted: "Sell popsicles, sell popsicles, delicious and inexpensive, quench thirst and heat, cool down and sweat, crystal clear......"

Hearing Dongmei's shouting, the villager woman was stunned, and said in her heart that this woman couldn't open her mouth shyly yesterday, why is she so natural and generous today, who enlightened her?

I saw that when the students came out, they could tell the difference between Dongmei and the villager woman at a glance.

Coupled with Tao Tao and Nana's publicity in the school, the students rushed to Dongmei one after another, buying popsicles one after another.

At the same time, because Dongmei's popsicles are cheaper than the countrywoman's popsicles, Dongmei's popsicles sell out very quickly and are almost out of stock.

However, just when Dongmei popsicles were selling happily, suddenly the familiar figure from yesterday reappeared.

Kang Ping and a few teachers talked and laughed and walked out of the school gate.

The moment Dongmei saw Kang Ping, the shame in her heart was activated again.

She was embarrassed and shy, afraid that Kang Ping would see her selling popsicles.

However, at this time, Kang Ping had already come to the front, and Dongmei knew that she was already difficult to ride a tiger at this time.

She couldn't run away even if she ran, so she shouted at Kang Ping: "Sell popsicles, delicious popsicles ......"

Kang Ping heard a familiar voice and couldn't help but look to the left.

I saw that in the past, Dongmei, who had nothing to talk about herself, actually pushed a bicycle and sold popsicles at the school gate.

At this time, Dongmei's eyes also looked at Kang Ping, and the eyes of the two were facing each other.
