From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Usually, Mu Shuangshuang spends half an hour telling stories and then takes a break for a cup of tea.

During this tea time, she can do all sorts of things.

She can rest a bit, catch her breath, or discuss the plot with everyone.

This time, she chose to rest, and those who wanted to ask her about the plot were all turned down.

”Everyone, today we won’t discuss the plot! I’ve been on a carriage for almost two days, haven’t recovered yet, I’ll answer your questions about the story later.

If there are things left unanswered, we’ll talk again next time when I’m well-rested, how about that?”

Mu Shuangshuang’s words earned her quite a bit of sympathy and agreement from the crowd.

Everyone knew that Mu Shuangshuang, a young lady, managing to tell free stories a few days each month for the crowd was no easy feat!

Moreover, she had previously explained to everyone, initially setting it to four times a month.

If she got busy in the future, it might be reduced as needed; if she had something to do, she would either let someone else cover for her or postpone it.

Actually, before Mu Shuangshuang left, she had already explained to Yu Dahai the details of the ginsengfruit story, but everyone was used to listening to Mu Shuangshuang.

With Yu Dahai offering two choices, either wait or let him tell the story afterwards.

The people decisively chose the former!

The considerate crowd said, ”Miss Shuangshuang, don’t worry about us, just have a good rest today!

If you’re feeling unwell, we don’t have to listen today, we’ve waited so many days, a few more won’t matter!”

”Yes, if you’re not feeling well, let’s stop here today, we’ll come again next time!”

Although not being able to hear the rest of the story left the crowd a bit disappointed, but for men, what can’t they endure?

Mu Shuangshuang smiled at everyone, bowed, ”Thank you all for understanding, I just can’t allocate more energy to discuss the plot with everyone, but I can still tell the story according to the thoughts in my mind!

Besides, I believe if I don’t say anything today, everyone might not be able to sleep tonight, for the sake of everyone’s sleep, I’ll risk my life to accompany Junzi!”

When Mu Shuangshuang finished speaking, everyone laughed along.

But the laughter hadn’t lasted long when several people unexpectedly entered through the door.

At the forefront were two men dressed similarly to the workers at Chengfeng Restaurant.

Behind them stood a young woman dressed in brocade and splendid attire, whose face Mu Shuangshuang was all too familiar with; who else could it be but Xia Guagua?

Mu Shuangshuang’s gaze had been on Xia Guagua from the moment she stepped through the door.

In the span of nearly a year, Xia Guagua had undergone earth-shattering changes.

The most noticeable was her attire; in the past, the household finances were managed by Gu Jiulian, who doted on her youngest son, so Xia Guagua naturally didn’t fare well.

But during her time with Wang Fugui, Xia Guagua did get to wear several nice outfits.

Additionally, her appearance and demeanor had changed; the old Xia Guagua seemed more like a country girl to Mu Shuangshuang.

But now, Xia Guagua’s skin had gotten fairer, and her demeanor had undergone a complete transformation; at a glance, she seemed more like a young lady from a wealthy family!

”Oh, are we telling stories here? Why not continue?” Xia Guagua glanced around the restaurant and asked!

”I’m just worried that Manager Xia might hear my story and turn around and transfer it to your own restaurant!” Mu Shuangshuang openly mocked Xia Guagua.

Xia Guagua didn’t get upset, ”I thought Miss Shuangshuang was generous and confident in her own restaurant, turns out she fears we might surpass them!”

”No, I’m not afraid you’ll surpass us; I’m afraid you’ll make a mess and spoil it when copying, turning good things in my restaurant into something that looks neither here nor there.

If a customer accidentally enters your restaurant and assumes we at Chengfeng Restaurant are at that level, we’d be wronged miserably!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

Summer Gu’s expression faltered slightly, she glared intensely at Mu Shuangshuang, thinking to herself how this cheeky girl was still so insolent!

The restaurant guests were a bit stunned by the verbal exchange between the two.

But there were still sensible ones who took the initiative to speak out.

”Manager Xia, your Lu Feng Restaurant is across the street, this is Chengfeng Restaurant, perhaps you shouldn’t come here!”

”Yes, if you learn something and take it over, it would make us uncomfortable!”

”Are you making decisions for Miss Shuangshuang? Are you chasing away her guests on her behalf?” Xia Guagua retorted.

The speaker immediately fell silent.

”I know everyone might be saying bad things about me, Xia Guagua, in their hearts, but I want to say, this really isn’t my fault!

I was also deceived; when I came to town to open a restaurant, the people I hired told me that this was the way to decorate a restaurant!

Hiring people, they told me whom to hire, and even the chefs from Chengfeng Restaurant approached me, eager to follow me!

If anyone has ever worked in business, you’d know it’s not easy to open a restaurant, money has been invested, and you can’t just say no and not do it!”

Xia Guagua talked nonsense with her eyes wide open.

She didn’t expect anyone to believe what she said; she just wanted to irritate Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang was quite curious, wondering what kind of stories Xia Guagua would concoct to whitewash herself.

In the end, it was simply nonsensical rambling, treating everyone like fools!

Actually, some things didn’t need Mu Shuangshuang to point out; everyone knew.

Xia Guagua did indeed learn from Chengfeng Restaurant and deliberately attracted many of Chengfeng Restaurant’s customers with low prices.

To be definitive about it, Xia Guagua’s behavior was likely dishonest and insincere!

”Manager Xia’s explanation is certainly novel, just wondering if you’re finished? If you’re done, why not quiet down and listen to my continued storytelling?” Mu Shuangshuang said.

Xia Guagua made a gesture inviting her to proceed.

Mu Shuangshuang continued telling the story; Xia Guagua’s unexpected arrival, combined with her subconscious dislike for Mu Shuangshuang.

So after half an hour of storytelling, Xia Guagua felt bored to death.

But the people around her kept applauding, seemingly enjoying themselves.

Xia Guagua only thought these people were crazy!

Like this, Xia Guagua reluctantly stayed all afternoon until the storytelling finished and everyone left.

Only then did Xia Guagua begin to search for Lu Yuanfeng among the crowd.

Lu Yuanfeng had gone out in the afternoon to return the borrowed horse and inquire about various news around town.

Despite all the time that had passed, Xia Guagua still couldn’t let go of Lu Yuanfeng.

So when Lu Yuanfeng appeared, she went up to him, smiling and offering gifts.

”Brother Yuan Feng, do you still remember me?” Xia Guagua asked.

Lu Yuanfeng directly ignored the eager Xia Guagua and went to Mu Shuangshuang’s side.

”Shuangshuang, everything’s been sorted, I’ve sent a message to Third Uncle and Aunt Si, they know we’ve returned today!”
