"Hmm, why isn't the boss here yet?"

A large group of customers gathered outside Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables early in the morning.

Someone checked the phone for the time and said, "It's already past seven am. Why isn't the shop open yet? I came at 6 am to wait. I was afraid that the vegetables would be sold out if I was late." But, she had waited for an hour and the shop was still not open.

"Shouldn't vegetable shops be open as early as possible? The other vegetable vendors came so early in the morning. In the summer, they came to sell at around 5 am. But this place is still not open even though it's already 7 am."

"Haha. We know Boss Xiao is quite lazy."

"But, she has a reason to be lazy. Her stuff sells so well. Which other shop sells better than she does?"

"That's true. But how come the vegetables here are so different from the others?"

"The vegetables here are very fragrant and have an unforgettable taste."

"Miss Xiao said it's because their vegetables are all organic. They don't use pesticides and chemical fertilizers. That is why they are so different from the others."

"But many countryside farmers also grow organic vegetables. However, the taste is still wildly different from Boss Xiao's."

Since Xiao Lingyu's vegetables tasted so special, there were naturally some doubts.

"You're right. Also, Boss Xiao's vegetables can make you feel refreshed and energized. It can improve people's appetite. I suppose Boss Xiao has her secrets why her vegetables are so different."

"Indeed. My rheumatism would kill me whenever it rained. However, after having Boss Xiao's vegetables, the pain is not that bad anymore."

"So that is why? I was wondering why my muscles don't feel so sore anymore lately. Even my in-laws said their bones didn't hurt as much as before. We all thought it was the change in the weather!"

"Oh! I used to get colds easily. But since I had Boss Xiao's vegetables, there is this constant warmth in my stomach."

The customers shared their experiences. When Chu Mingjiao heard this discussion, she immediately thought about the heat flashes she had been having recently. She was angry for no reason, and there was like a ball of fire in her body. She roared at her husband and son. However, after having the leeks from this shop yesterday, the fire was doused. It felt like a gentle spring was washing through her.

It was the effect of the leeks!

Chu Mingjiao immediately joined in the discussion. "I have the same experience. Recently, I can't stand anything. I couldn't control my temper at all. Everything just doesn't look right to me."

"Hmm, that sounds like menopause to me." An old lady pointed out.

"Oh?" Chu Mingjiao was confused. "Is that menopause?" She had heard about that before. She didn't think she would be going through it.

"Hey, aren't you the one who came to cause trouble yesterday?" A customer recognized Chu Mingjiao. "You accused us of being actors, and you wanted to get the people from the Commerce Bureau to seize the shop!"

"Yes!" Someone said angrily, "What are you doing here so early today? Are you here to confirm whether we are hired actors or not? Where are the people from the Commerce Bureau?"

"Exactly. What are you doing here? Let me tell you. It's useless even if the Commerce Bureau is here. All the vegetables in Boss Xiao's shop are clearly priced! She isn't scamming anyone!"
