Seeing Li Xianyun and her company arrive, an elderly man complained, "Why have you come so late? We've been waiting a long time."
Another old woman said, "We thought you weren't going to set up your stall. Many people who couldn't wait have already left."
"If I hadn't bought some of your wares yesterday and the kids loved it, I wouldn't have bothered lining up here."
Many people followed suit, airing their grievances.
Li Xianyun, while setting up the stall with Youlan and the others, said with a smile, "There was a delay due to some matters at home today. I truly apologize. As compensation, we'll give an extra half pound of honeyed goods to any customer who buys some today."
At these words, everyone instantly brightened up.
